Wei Xun, heir to Binhai Wei Aluminum, is plunged into crisis as soon as he takes over the company. False rumors spread by Old K roil the market, his uncle embezzles public funds and drains the family fortune, and ALCO, an industry giant, covets the company’s core low-temperature rolling technology under the guise of collaboration. Robert sets fires and seizes shipments, while Lin Wenyan lays traps and closes in, all intent on swallowing Wei Aluminum whole.
To protect his father’s life work and the livelihoods of hundreds of employees, Wei Xun rapidly grows from an inexperienced young heir into a capable leader. He joins forces with ally Feng Siyuan and trusted subordinate Chen Mo, shoring up the company’s technical defenses and stabilizing its supply chain while gathering evidence to strike back. But he never expected an even deeper conspiracy behind the crisis: his father’s “illness-related death” ten years ago was actually murder by poison. ALCO’s new head is Zhou Mingyuan, a former colleague of his father’s, while the real culprit, Su Wanqing, has been lying low for years, waiting to steal the technology and take revenge.
From factory standoffs to a battle of wits at the Munich trade fair, from uncovering a corporate espionage trap to a life-or-death rescue at the docks, Wei Xun stays true to his principles amid the undercurrents of corporate warfare and family feuds. With integrity as his shield and people’s trust as his blade, he must clear his father’s name and protect Wei Aluminum, as well as break the industry’s monopoly and secure China’s aluminum industry a foothold in the global market. Thus begins a business legend of perseverance and growth, justice and mutual success.
