Wang Daming, a 42-year-old bankrupt good guy, jumps into a river and transmigrates into a penniless boy in the late Yuan Dynasty. He even has a smartphone and a power bank with him. Even more absurdly, the phone can connect to the modern internet in the Ming Dynasty!
To survive, Wang Daming searches history for a "conquest guide" and makes a beeline for Zhu Yuanzhang, using his knowledge of the future to become "Mr. Black Mirror." He offers plans to seize grain stores, trains soldiers and makes cement, scares off a pack of wolves with his phone's flash, and even teaches Empress Ma simplified characters and nursing skills.
But every time he changes history, his phone displays a "Timeline Deviation Warning." As Zhu Yuanzhang's growing power breeds suspicion, love clashes with duty, and the battery drops to 65%, Wang Daming must walk a tightrope between changing history and being erased by it. This is a humorous survival epic about a modern man who "cheats" with technology in ancient times, only to discover that human nature matters more than knowledge.
