Born to Lose: I Lost My Way to Fortune in Huangshi

In 2026, unemployed shut-in Li Feng gets hit with a “Lose Money System”! As long as he loses a hundred thousand a month, he can lie flat and collect rewards a hundred times that amount?

At last, this heaven-sent fortune has come to me, the most useless shut-in in Binjiang!

Overjoyed, I immediately poured money into opening a “Lie Flat Internet Cafe” in an abandoned steel mill back in my hometown, Binjiang City. I picked the most expensive equipment, ordered custom keyboards printed with “Mihu Lake Lotus,” and hired the most laid-back staff, all in the hope of going bankrupt and heading home to quietly become the world’s richest man. But who could have guessed that my Binjiang employees would be so toxic!

No matter how much I “squandered” in the “Parallel Earth Livestream” watched by the entire internet, with comments flooding the screen saying, “The boss is up to something again,” the business geniuses on my team always found a way to turn it into a money-making masterstroke. Before I knew it, they had “backstabbed” me by turning a tiny, run-down internet cafe in Binjiang into a global business empire!

As the world’s media fawned over me and the livestream comments hailed us as “Binjiang business geniuses,” I could only cry in despair:

“I’m really no business genius. I just want to lose money in peace!”

But all my employees were fired up: “Got it! The boss is using reverse psychology to motivate us again! Come on, guys! For the boss’s dream of lying flat, let’s make him a trillion first and take the Binjiang model worldwide!”
