In the winter of 1990, Shanghai worker Lin Jianguo broke into the black market of stocks with the hard-earned money of his fellow workers, and was swallowed up by a fake "08653" subscription certificate. With debts piled high and his family ruined, he carried his sins and plunged into the steel jungle developed in Pudong, using his flesh and blood to build the road to atonement——
At the bloody dawn of the Shenzhen IPO riots, he witnessed the sudden death of a migrant worker with a broken leg in the business hall;
On a cold night when the national debt was high, the contractor fell from a 100-meter steel frame into the Capital Shura Field;
On the altar of the Internet bubble, he hunched over and swept away the crushed tuition fees and dreams of college students.
After thirty years of ups and downs, he has seen through the nature of reincarnation:
The bewitching golden mirrors in Xiangyang Park, the "bloody chip" scalpers on the streets of Shenzhen, the heroes at the national debt celebration banquet, the mad dog lecturers in the Internet frenzy... The sickle changed its face, grinding "at your own risk" into dust, and turning ordinary people into ashes in the temple of wealth.
When the song "We Workers Have Power" sounded above the altar,
The man crawled out of the ashes, clutching the blood-stained pieces of false evidence.
The ant's backbone is not broken after all——
He stood on the ruins and showed his tempered sickle to the giant beast!
——Open this book and you will hear the clanking of the skeletons of 300,000 retail investors at the bottom of the Huangpu River in the torrent of capital!
