"Iron-bone Black Winter - Lu Laoliu's Ups and Downs"
In 1982, Lu Jianjun, an apprentice at a state-owned enterprise in Northeast China, sharpened a piece of steel and hid it in his toolbox after being bullied, calling it an "iron bone." When his mother was bullied by gangsters, he resisted with all his strength, but was framed and expelled. On a snowy night, he swore revenge under a bridge, and from then on he transformed into Lu Laoliu and wandered around the world.
From fighting in the Russian goods market to standing up for scraps, from setting up traps to kill people on the frozen Songhua River to monopolizing entertainment venues, Lu Laoliu used ruthless means to build a black empire. He clung to the powerful, but fell deeper and deeper into the quagmire of power.
At its peak, dangers abound: brothers turn against each other, new enemies surround them, and protective umbrellas are greedy and blackmailed. When the daughter he values as his own life is kidnapped, this tycoon who has been in power for most of his life is forced to take risks and eventually falls into a fatal trap.
When everyone was betrayed and separated, he calmly escaped in the heavy snow at the train station, leaving only one sentence: "I will never be sorry for my daughter in this life." Many years later, in the diary he left behind, his daughter understood the soul struggling with sin and found a way to reconcile with herself.
This is a bloody legend of a Northeastern hero, a record of the ups and downs of an era, and a profound inquiry about crime and punishment, darkness and redemption.
