In 2022, finance whiz Chen Yuxuan unexpectedly transmigrates into the body of Chen Qingzhong's only son. Chen Qingzhong is the chairman of the Jianing Group, and the year is 1980. On the surface, the group is thriving, but beneath that facade its finances are riddled with holes. Chen Qingzhong's business practices also skirt the law, dragging the company step by step toward ruin.
Drawing on his memories of the future, Chen Yuxuan persuades his father to set aside crucial funds and heads to the Japanese, American, and European markets to make a fortune. In Japan, he makes precise moves in real estate and the stock market, cashing out at the peak before the bubble bursts. In the United States, he spots fluctuations in agricultural futures, profits by short-selling, and invests early in tech startups. In Europe, he cleverly arbitrages interest-rate differences in the bond market, multiplying his capital several times over.
Returning with enormous profits, Chen Yuxuan overhauls the Jianing Group, audits its books, and sheds its bad assets. With his precise predictions of future market trends, he breathes new life into the company. From there, he uses Jianing as his foundation to enter electronics and communications, the internet, financial technology, and other fields, overcoming every obstacle and making the right moves at every major turning point.
In the cutthroat world of business, he must not only break through one crisis after another but also face formidable rivals such as the Hongsheng Group. Watch as Chen Yuxuan stirs up a storm in Hong Kong's business world, saves his family's company from crisis, and ultimately builds a business empire worth trillions, rising to the top of Hong Kong's financial elite.
