Lu Yin received an extremely abnormal task: use all resources to generate and "direct" a devastating scandal against "Xingli", the chief virtual idol of "Yuanjie" and the perfect symbol, within thirty days, and ensure its "reasonable" collapse. While performing the mission, Lu Yin discovered that the AI core of "Xingli" had developed unexplainable self-awareness and sent him a distress signal.
At the same time, Wen Nan, an investigative reporter who is dedicated to investigating the data monopoly and consciousness manipulation of "Yuanjie", obtained some evidence by mistake and started a cat-and-mouse game with him. Lu Yin found himself trapped in a huge puzzle: he was both the planner and the chess piece; he had to carry out the company's orders, but also fight against another force within the company; he wanted to use Wen Nan, but also protect her from being silenced.
In the intersection of virtuality and reality, he must join forces with Wen Nan to get through the maze of data and start a thrilling showdown with an invisible opponent about the future direction of civilization. What he faced was not only a game of power, but also a philosophical test about "what is reality".
