The Snowstorm Is Coming: Thirty Years of Ups and Downs of the Northeast Underworld

A snowstorm of underworld sweeping across the Northeast, a bloody rivers and lakes spanning thirty years. In the early 1990s, the old industrial base in Northeast China was trembling in the throes of reform. Beilin City, a once glorious city, has fallen into confusion and difficulty following the collapse of numerous state-owned enterprises. Order collapsed, wildness grew, and a jungle era of the weak and the strong came quietly. Gao Yanfeng, the youngest technical section chief of Beilin Machinery Factory, originally had a bright future. But the hammer of the factory's collapse ruthlessly shattered his utopia. Overnight, he was reduced from a proud man to a laid-off worker. In order to survive and regain his lost dignity, this extremely smart and thoughtful man, relying on his extraordinary wisdom and courage, resolutely stepped into the gray area, dealing with the ruthless and decisive veteran brother-in-law, ambitious street gangsters, and unpredictable high-IQ criminals, dancing dangerously on the tightrope of friendship, interests and survival. He started from a freight line, took risks in border trade, took advantage of demolition projects, and built his underground kingdom step by step. He prefers women but is not sentimental, and always retains a soft spot in his heart for the female reporter who tried to shine a light on him but was imprisoned; he acts both righteously and evilly, and will do whatever it takes to benefit, but he will stick to the remaining morality in his heart at critical moments. Thirty years of turmoil have seen him grow from a forced survivalist to a mafia giant who stirred up the underground order in Beilin. He personally participated in and witnessed the entire process of the Northeastern mafia from barbaric growth to corporate operation, and finally collapsed under the iron fist of the state.
