The "coordinates of civilization" are the pivotal points in China's thousands of years of development that determined its course and carried the roots of its people. They include texts buried by war, skills lost after the burning of books, traces of civilization concealed by geological change, historical truths altered by human hands, and cultural origins maligned or stolen by Western narratives. Over the course of history, these coordinates have shifted: some have been lost forever, some have been transformed beyond recognition, and others have been claimed by foreign nations.
A "civilization coordinate calibrator" uses rigorous interdisciplinary knowledge to restore historical truth, mend the breaks in civilization, and awaken the roots of the nation in modern society. The protagonist relies on no System, no supernatural powers, and no transmigration or rebirth. His only golden finger is an interdisciplinary foundation built up over more than a decade, and his unwavering devotion to Chinese civilization.
