Lin Chen, a young entrepreneur from Pengcheng, was set up by his partner and an industry giant while bidding on a national industrial park project. His company went bankrupt with tens of millions in debt, and just as everyone turned their backs on him, a construction truck sent him flying to his death.
When he opened his eyes, he had been reborn in Pengcheng in 1980, just as the Special Economic Zone was being established and the electronics industry was beginning to take off. With only 37 yuan in his pocket, he bound himself to the [Era Pioneer Check-In System]. Armed with memories of the entire electronics industry’s development over the next thirty years, he was ready to defy fate!
He pedaled a tricycle around the city, searching factories for subcontracting work. Starting with a tiny workshop in an urban village, he won huge orders through advanced techniques and uncompromising quality control, then made a profit by passing the work on to other suppliers. In a year, his earnings multiplied tenfold, turning a penniless young man into a rising star in electronics manufacturing!
Drawing on his knowledge of the future, he hit every trend at just the right time and befriended the industry’s top power players, going from looking up to them to standing as their equal. He also met four confidantes, each with her own specialty, who supported him in technology, foreign trade, policy, and finance. They respected and understood one another, with no petty rivalry or infighting.
He took down his former enemies and avenged his bitterest grudges, broke the overseas monopoly on technology, and built an electronics empire of his own for China. From a small-time operator on a tricycle, he rose step by step to become the godfather of the global electronics industry!
