At fifty, Ma Yuan was drained of every last drop by his business partners and died drunk in the street.
When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to 1997, becoming “Ma Won’t Budge,” the errand boy everyone could order around at a small computer assembly shop in Huaqiangbei.
The memories of his previous life were his only way to turn things around.
He sneered. “Those who betrayed me, your fate is in my hands.”
Starting with a single screw, he positioned himself perfectly:
In the stock market frenzy of 1999, he laid a web of traps well in advance.
After the turn of the millennium, as the internet began to emerge, he quietly planted the seeds that mattered.
The counter in Huaqiangbei became the first brick in his business empire.
Yet what haunted him even more than wealth was the warm family he had in his previous life: his wife Lin Wei, twelve years younger than him, and their two adorable children.
Now, she was just a stranger lost in the crowd.
In this life, he would seize both opportunities and hold on to them with all his might.
On one hand, he would race to claim his place amid the tide of the times, building a hardware empire and becoming Huaqiangbei’s undisputed uncrowned king.
On the other, awkward but unwavering, he would make his way toward the girl who was still in college.
With a new identity, he would win her over and make her his wife again, bringing every one of their precious children back into the world.
This is the passionate legend of a man who uses the memories of two lifetimes to wage war in both business and love, determined to reclaim everything he lost.
