Republican Era: I Opened the Paramount in Shanghai

The Republic of China era was a particularly chaotic period in modern history.

Gangs ran rampant, with the French Concession... the British Concession, Indian soldiers, and even the Japanese Concession.

As a native of Shanghai, he lived alongside them, surrounded by conflicts between all sides.

And, of course, there was no shortage of... collaborators.

Under these conditions, many chambers of commerce and trade unions sprang up... which were really just groups of comprador collaborators.

Du Qing is reborn into this era... Can he find a different path in this turbulent, mixed-up world?
