In the novel Tidal Fortress, Li Hu and Jiang Qin's lives become closely intertwined as the world is swept up in apocalyptic tidal disasters. One morning, sea levels rise far faster than anyone expected, and coastal cities plunge into chaos and panic.
Using the vast fortune he inherited earlier, Li Hu builds a secret base hidden beneath the sea: the Tidal Fortress. Designed by Li Hu himself, the fortress brings together the world's most advanced technology. A fully enclosed ecological recycling system ensures a self-sufficient supply of food and water; a sturdy titanium alloy shell withstands the immense pressure of the deep sea and the fury of nature; and advanced energy systems provide endless power for life inside the fortress.
In this sudden catastrophe, Jiang Qin frantically searches for shelter with her family. She knows that Li Hu's Tidal Fortress is their only hope of survival. So she gathers her courage, finds Li Hu, and makes a request that seems like a bargain but is really born of desperation: in exchange for her family's safety, she is willing to become his girlfriend. Li Hu understands the practical considerations behind her feelings, but chooses to accept her, not out of a desire for power or profit, but because of his deep understanding and acceptance of human nature.
As time passes, hardship gradually dissolves the barriers built on false affection, and Li Hu and Jiang Qin begin to realize that their feelings have gone beyond their original arrangement and grown into true love. In the stillness of the ocean depths, their love is like the tree of life inside the fortress, blossoming into a resilient, beautiful flower amid darkness and pressure.
It's particularly beautiful. It has the familiar feel of an American blockbuster, but it's also very deep and contains thoughts about human nature in the apocalypse.
