The Enlightenment of Life

At a high-profile financial summit, rising star in finance and life sciences leader Lin Mo stood at the pinnacle of his career, accepting the trophy he had earned. But a mysteriously delivered USB drive shattered the carefully constructed world around him in an instant.

The “script” on the drive coldly revealed the brutal truth: the successful startup he took such pride in was merely one piece in a vast scheme, codenamed “Phoenix Reborn,” meticulously orchestrated over several years by the financial titan Qiming Capital. Even more devastating, his trusted startup partner and technical backbone, Li Feng, codenamed “Bedrock,” and Su Qing, codenamed “Dawn,” the woman he loved and married, were both agents planted by the capitalists at his side. His life, his career, even his love were all part of a flawless performance controlled by capital.
