Synopsis
In 2047, Chen Shanhe, an elderly man at the bottom of the AI age, is dragged by a mysterious System back to 1980 in a parallel world, reborn as his five-year-old self with a lifetime of regrets.
Starting out in the countryside near Guangzhou, he is taken to Hong Kong by a benefactor. Armed with memories of the future and the System's support, he dictates a script with a single word and stuns Hong Kong with a single battle.
He makes Qiu Xiaochen a star, befriends Li Jiaxin, and spends half a lifetime entangled with Fan Bingyan. He nurtures Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Guan Xiaotong, Guli Nazha, and many more...
He seizes every opportunity the times have to offer:
He makes a fortune in oil during the Gulf War, acquires technology after the Soviet Union's collapse, invests in Tencent and builds an e-commerce empire in the internet age, buys up assets worldwide during the 2008 financial crisis, and brings forward the short-video and AI boom, breaking monopolies in chips and lithography machines.
He builds a security business, gives to charity, and expands his global reach. From a country boy to a global magnate, he races ahead and rises to legendary heights!
In this life, he'll amass all the world's wealth, embrace all its beauty, protect his homeland, and reach the summit.
