A pair of mille-layer cloth shoes and a 286 keyboard.
He came from the computer room on a rainy night, with a "river of code blood" flowing in his eyes that others could not see.
In 1994, Lin Han, a poor student in rural areas, resold pirated copies to save his mother from illness, but he was involved in an invisible war codenamed "Deep Blue".
With his left hand, he forged a shield for the country and wrote a firewall to protect the data of hundreds of millions of people; with his right hand, he traveled for survival and planted a fatal backdoor in the gap between capital and power.
From the ghost of the DOS era to the self-developed "Kunlun Heart" system, from the county Internet cafe to the pinnacle of the Wuzhen World Internet Conference.
Bai Yueguang and Shen Qingge protected him from being disfigured by sulfuric acid, while his old enemy Situ Lei used hundreds of billions of capital to lay a dragnet for him.
When the AI "Zhulong" awakens and questions the ethics of its creator, and when the doomsday prophecies left by his father are fulfilled one by one, Lin Han stands at the crossroads between human beings and digital civilization - should he build himself into the "Digital Great Wall" that will forever rule the country, or become the "God of Algorithms" that rules everything?
This is the digital secret history of China's Internet that has been turbulent for thirty years. It is also a hard-core romance written by a code farmer's keyboard and flesh and blood.
"The soles of my shoes are dirt and my fingertips are boundaries."
Let's see how the cloth-shoe code farmer makes huge waves in a silent place.
