Blue Sea Ambition: the Founding of Nanyang

Lin Ze, a modern engineer, traveled to the turbulent late Qing Dynasty and became the son of a small landowner on the southeast coast. He resolutely led his people across the ocean and struggled to gain a foothold in the Spanish-colonized Philippines. Relying on his foresight and technological golden finger that transcended the times, he built cities, trained troops, and developed science and education, and quietly emerged among the great powers. The Spanish-American War and the World War became opportunities. He sized up the situation and established the "Chinese Nanyang Kingdom" and pursued permanent neutrality. He has devoted his life to creating a paradise where the navy is the Asia-Pacific leader and the technology is unparalleled in the world. From rough roads to prosperity, he and his first wife worked hand in hand, witnessed the inheritance of three generations, and built a small Nanyang island into a technological fortress and an oasis of peace that even Japan dared not covet, composing a legendary founding epic.
