Lin Qian, a top architect who used algorithms to plunder astonishing wealth on Wall Street, saw through the illusion of capital controlling human nature and chose to "cleanse his life" and live in seclusion in an old heavy industry city facing bankruptcy and reorganization, guarding a shabby bookstore called "Zhishui".
Until top venture capital partner Shen Jingzhe parachuted in with hundreds of millions of capital, trying to forcefully take over the city's underlying lifeline with a perfect "AI smart ecosystem". Lin Qian's bookstore became the only obstacle.
"If you try to draw a fixed channel for living water, the water will burst sooner or later." Faced with Shen Jingzhe's arrogance, Lin Qian left these words extremely calmly.
The two set up a million-dollar bet without the smoke of gunpowder: Lin Qian used only one million in principal and led three people from the lowest level of the old city - a stubborn laid-off old worker, a speculative gangster who talked about cheating, and a depressed and poor artist. In ten months, he used the most barbaric and lowest-level business logic to lively break through the perfect supply chain that Shen Jingzhe had spent hundreds of millions to build!
Wealth, power, and desires come like a tsunami. However, when everyone thought that Lin Qian was going to build a new business empire, he personally removed the last firewall and watched with cold eyes as everything collapsed amidst human greed, hatred and ignorance.
The weak look forward to a savior, while the strong follow objective laws.
A truly expert person doesn't even cling to the "laws" themselves.
This is not a simple business war, but a lancet that dissects the "desire for control" and "anxiety disorders" of modern people. When buildings rise and fall, can you still see through this formless world of mortals?
