In 1988, in Jiangzhou, southern China. It was the early days of reform and opening up, an era where fortunes were there for the taking and everything was growing wildly.
The protagonist, Lin Feng, was a billionaire worth hundreds of billions in his previous life, but he lost his wife and daughter. He is reborn in the body of his worst self at twenty-five: an alcoholic, a gambler, and a wife-beater.
When he opens his eyes, his family is on the verge of starvation, his daughter’s fever won’t break, and his wife, Su Wan, is desperate enough to want to die.
In an instant, he goes from “scumbag gambler” to “devoted husband” and “business genius.”
Repairing appliances earns him his first pot of gold -> trading treasury bonds -> setting up factories and building an industrial business. He uses his knowledge of the future to crush the competition.
How should I put it? It's wrong to write a timeline. It's outrageous.
