Reborn: I Made Ten Billion in 30 Days and Shocked the World

Reborn in 2008, Zhang Wenjie needs startup capital for his business, so he takes his family heirloom to an antiques appraisal show.

The experts nitpick it in every possible way, then value it at 170,000 yuan.

Zhang Wenjie sneers. "You think 170,000 yuan will buy my Songyang Han Cypress Painting!"

"This painting is a fake, a copy made by a master during the Republic of China era."

"Go to hell, you so-called expert! Your judgment is worthless. What a joke!"

He explodes at the experts on the live show, and Zhang Wenjie instantly goes viral.

Just after he leaves the TV station, an old man stops him. "Young man, I'll offer you 80 million for this painting. Will you sell it?"

Years later, Zhang Wenjie looks back on the first half of his life, with a mountain of bones at his feet.

"My only flaw, Zhang Wenjie's, is that I'm too ruthless!"
