A Post-70s Striver in Beijing

The protagonist of this story is Zhu Zi, a child born in the countryside in the 1970s. Life was terribly hard for him growing up. After graduating from middle school, like most rural kids, he left home to work and support his family. As he got older, he would have followed the same path as most people from the countryside: getting married, having children, and working hard all his life. Zhu Zi had always harbored a dream, but he knew deep down that without hard work, he had no way forward and no future to speak of... So Zhu Zi took action. Thanks to a series of lucky opportunities and his own diligence and hard work, he eventually became the richest man in the village and married a beautiful college-educated wife. He put down roots in the capital, founded a company, invested in property, and built a thriving business, reaching the pinnacle of life!
