Siheyuan: A Projectionist Who Signs In to Become the Godfather of Industry

Engineer Li Weiguo's soul transmigrates into early 1960, an era of scarce supplies, and he becomes a projectionist at a steel mill, bound to the Light and Shadow Sign-In System.

In an age when even pork coupons are precious, he earns sign-in rewards by screening films: materials science far beyond its time, the skills of a master physician, and even blueprints for a colossal forging press!

When the courtyard's vermin scheme against him, he strikes at their hearts with clever, aboveboard tactics, crushing those who use morality as a weapon and humiliating the so-called "Number One Uncles."

At the steel mill, he rockets from lowly projectionist to chief engineer. His groundbreaking technology breaks the foreign blockade, bringing forth national treasures like seamless steel pipes and electroslag remelting, and propelling the country's industry into a new era!

However, the mystery of his predecessor's origins haunts him. A dragon-patterned jade pendant attracts the greed and oppression of top political forces represented by the Bai family.

With technology in one hand and a business empire in the other, Li Weiguo rides the tides of this turbulent era. He is determined not only to become a trailblazer, but also to uncover the hidden truth, outwit the mastermind behind the scenes, and forge a legend of his own!
