The Three Pure Ones as Corporate Slaves: My Clones Strike Back at Capitalism

Synopsis:

Beneath the fluorescent lights of an office building, 996 wage slave Chen Mo has long been worked to the brink of a mental breakdown. Then he unexpectedly awakens the ability to "Split into Three Pure Ones", except instead of immortal energy, he creates three shadow clones born for the workplace: Chen Slacker, who slacks off and gives up; Chen Scapegoat, who takes the blame and cleans up messes; and Chen Hustler, addicted to cutthroat competition. From then on, his true self hides beneath his desk to cultivate the "Art of Slacking Off," while the clones take turns covering his shifts so he can scrape by. He thinks he has found the ultimate shortcut to resisting exploitation. Then strange red markings appear on the ceiling, his clones' energy is ruthlessly harvested, and an anonymous warning points straight to CEO Zhao Chongshan. Only then does he realize that his split personality is no isolated case: it is a harbinger of the collapse of the Daoist hearts of the city's white-collar workers. Zhao Chongshan is gathering these fractured personalities to forge a "Corporate Will Collective" capable of controlling reality. When survival means being harvested as expendable material and becoming whole again is only a distant hope, Chen Mo and his three clones are forced to join forces. They use PowerPoint illusions to fight surveillance and scapegoat substitution techniques to stand up to workplace manipulation, launching a cultivation-world counterattack to reclaim themselves within a prison of steel and concrete.
