Chen Mingyuan, once a top director at a leading PR firm and a seasoned ladies' man, opens his eyes to find himself in 1988, as "Second Son Chen," a man everyone in a Beijing courtyard complex can bully.

His parents died young, leaving him with only half a family home. His uncle's family has their eyes fixed on him, plotting to take everything he owns!

At a whole-compound meeting, his cousin tearfully accuses him of being coldhearted for refusing to lend money to his own uncle for medical treatment. Facing everyone's condemnation, Chen Mingyuan neither argues nor defends himself. He just reddens his eyes, holds out trembling hands, and pulls out a bloodstained blood-donation slip. "Minggang... I really don't have two hundred yuan. This is the thirty-five yuan I saved by selling my blood. I'm sorry I'm such a useless brother..."

The room falls silent, and public opinion reverses in an instant! The neighborhood committee auntie slams the table, while all the neighbors point at his uncle's family and curse them out!

With his head bowed as he "wipes away tears," Chen Mingyuan's lips curl into a faint smile. Thirty years of modern workplace manipulation and masterful fake sweetness are a crushing advantage against these shameless people from the era!

Want my house? I'll hand over the keys myself, and scare you so badly you won't dare take them in front of everyone!

Want me fired? I'll turn around and poison the factory director against you, sending you straight to ruin!

In 1988, when fortunes are there for the taking, Chen Mingyuan wears the perfect sheepskin of a gentle, respectful, modest, and yielding man. He not only brings every villain to public disgrace without lifting a finger, but also makes a fortune by exploiting the information gap between eras. Meanwhile, the gorgeous young widow next door brings him a bowl of hot noodles, blushing as she says, "Mingyuan, I'll look after you from now on..."

See how a max-level big shot takes charge of a courtyard compound and builds a business empire!
