Lin Feng, a sophomore science student, accidentally traveled through the Yongle period while studying the principles of electric machines in the library, and faced the iron-blooded emperor Zhu Di. In a desperate situation, he relied on his half-baked electromagnetic knowledge to "hand rub" the first motor with permanent magnets and copper wires, lighting up the first electric lamp in the Ming Dynasty, and suddenly became the "armature master" in Zhu Di's eyes.
He used advanced technology to leverage the times, diverting water to drive generators and setting up copper wires to lay power grids, trying to use technology to inject new vitality into this feudal dynasty. But as the "Royal Power Plant" roared into operation, he gradually saw clearly: Zhu Di's support concealed centralization ambitions, the Minister of Revenue's obstruction stemmed from class interests, and behind the awe of the craftsmen was solidified cognition. New technologies gave birth to new forces, but they also crashed into the iron walls of the feudal system. When electric lights illuminated the palace, they illuminated not only the light, but also the greed of the old class, the struggles of the new class, and the rifts of the times destined to be torn apart by the collision of technology and imperial power.
