When the whole world laughed at him as a "rubber guarding rubbish", Lin Jian bound himself to the National Style Revival System.
There is only one rule: for every penny spent on traditional culture, you can get ten times the cash back.
The night he was abandoned by the advertising circle, he bought an antique pipa worth RMB 800,000 and gave it to the Pingtan Society, which was about to be disbanded.
The next day, 8 million was received, and the whole Internet was buzzing: "Which fool is doing charity?"
He smiled without saying a word and continued to spend money - acquiring theaters, reviving extraordinary arts, transforming e-sports teams into Jinyiweiwei themes, and letting Chinese music resound through the Paris Opera House.
Capital bosses who once despised him gradually discovered:
The "waste" he invested in is becoming a trend among young people;
The "old antiques" he protected fetched sky-high prices at international auction houses;
The craftsmen he supported became the inheritors of intangible cultural heritage appointed by the state.
Until he stood in front of the "Lan Art Center", which symbolizes Western aesthetics, and calmly announced to the camera:
"This place will be transformed into the world's first palace of oriental aesthetics."
Everyone who had ridiculed him finally realized in horror that what he spent was never money, but the kindling that started a prairie fire.
And the black card in his hand is rewriting the aesthetics and power of this era.
"What you throw away is waste, what I catch is the soul of five thousand years."
Reader comments
A very thoughtful book.
The protagonist has a big goal, not just to make money, but also to inherit culture.
The author has a good understanding of traditional culture and is not just shouting slogans
The idea of combining intangible cultural heritage with modern trends is very creative.
The supporting cast is also great, each with their own story.
The subject matter is quite novel, and the combination of national style and systematic writing is good, and it looks very good.
The protagonist counterattacks all the way and slaps those who look down on him in the face, which is very relaxing to watch.
The promotion of traditional culture is very touching, and I hope to see more stories like this.
It's good-looking, the writing style is relaxed, and it's dense and refreshing. It's a good decompression read.
The character creation is very three-dimensional, and the protagonist's persistence and responsibility are very admirable.
The plot does not drag on, and every chapter has something new to watch. I look forward to the follow-up development.
The rhythm of the story is well controlled and will not make people feel bored.
I was really excited to see the plot of Chinese traditional music going global.
The slap-in-the-face plot was handled well, not deliberately, and it came naturally.
The purpose of the story is very high, not just for fun, but also for deeper thinking.
You can feel the author's love for the Chinese style, and the details in the story are very attentive.
Overall, it's very good and worth reading. I look forward to the author's subsequent updates.
Every step of the protagonist is meaningful, not just a simple cool novel
You can feel cultural confidence, this kind of subject matter is really valuable
