In a gilded cage woven from algorithms, not a single raindrop is innocent.
In the near future, Prism Data controls the lifeblood of global information. Its CEO, Lu Chenhuan, has built towering walls of capital with AI algorithms, imprisoning humanity in an arena of traffic and desire. His wife, Yu Jianshen, once a technology idealist, holds ethical evidence capable of burning the empire to the ground, yet teeters on the verge of collapse amid drugs and surveillance. The genius technologist Gu Shang is obsessed with creating the perfect virtual idol, Yun Xi, but in the abyss of data he encounters Lin Che, a girl who has erased her own traces, and falls into a forbidden love.
Meanwhile, top-tier star Yun Wanyi is manipulated by financial tycoon Jin Yuezhi and dark-web overlord You Shu. She trades her soul for a life of glamour, until investigative reporter Li Shuo tears away her glittering facade. On the city’s outskirts, Pei Shang, leader of the hacker group Entropy Alliance, and his mother, Meng Jin, are igniting an “information collapse” storm against Prism...
When a fictional idol ascends to the altar and everyone’s secrets run naked in a tsunami of data, a digital storm of thunder crashes down.
Will it be the end of the abyss, or the darkest night before dawn?
