Layoffs During Lunar New Year? I'll Buy the Whole World Instead

On a snowy New Year’s Eve, chip expert Lin Che returns from overseas only to receive a layoff notice from a foreign company instead of a year-end bonus. With his mortgage payments overdue and his girlfriend gone, the [Great Nation Rejuvenation Investment System] activates amid fireworks and the lowest point of his life. It has just one rule: invest in the country’s strategic weak points for unlimited cashback, with technology that leaps straight ahead of its time!

Lin Che stakes everything, anonymously investing his last 100,000 yuan in his alma mater’s “open-source chip” lab, which is on the verge of shutting down.

Behind the scenes, he’s the nation’s top science and technology award winner, hidden from view, and the “capital titan” most feared by the global powers trying to contain China.

In the face of international restrictions, Lin Che steps forward and calmly declares: “I’m not investing in profits. I’m investing in the future of our nation. The tickets to the next era will be issued by us, I’m afraid.”
