In his final moments before hanging himself at Coal Hill, Emperor Chongzhen’s imperial robe concealed the soul of a top CEO from the 21st century!
Hell from the start! Li Zicheng’s forces are at the gates, crying, «Welcome the Chuang King, no taxes on grain!» The Manchu cavalry is pounding at the passes, sharpening its blades. How can a last emperor fated to hang himself at Coal Hill overturn three centuries of destiny with nothing but a Company Law and the strategic thinking of a modern CEO?
«Chuang King, forget about dividing the land and waiving grain taxes. The risk is too high, and the returns too slow! I have a business plan for the Great Ming Group. You can be the chief manager, the CEO, and together we’ll take over this realm... no, the global market. What do you say?»
Using the imperial treasury as startup capital, recruiting surrendered bandits as industrial workers, and producing everything from soap and refined salt to flintlock rifles and steam engines... As the Ming Commerce Group logo replaces the imperial banner and performance reviews become the sole criterion for officials’ promotion, an unprecedented «Huaxia Commercial Union» rises from the ruins!
He pacifies the feudal lords at home, intimidates powerful enemies abroad, and brings all under heaven to heel. When Zhu Youjian stands atop the heights of power and wealth, ready to plan the next Five-Year Plan for the vast empire he built with his own hands, a mysterious signal from the depths of the starry sea quietly arrives: an «unrefusable cosmic merger offer»...
The «ultimate startup» that began at Coal Hill is far from over!
Che Zhulun's words are garbled 🤭
Who knew his name was Su Mingyuan? It's too confusing to watch.
It's so messy in the back.
The start is still very attractive
