The stock market has never been the birthplace of myths, but a battlefield where countless ordinary people struggle.
The protagonist Fang Yuan, 32 years old, is an ordinary office worker in a second-tier city. The mortgage, children's tuition fees, and medical expenses for the elderly weighed him down. By chance, he heard that his colleagues had made money by trading in the stock market, and he entered the stock market with the desire to change his destiny.
Here, he met people who gambled their savings to treat their families, people who were looking forward to the daily limit in order to get rid of the embarrassment at the bottom, some who had a short-term revel in profits, and some who could not sleep at night due to losses.
They are clerks in office buildings who secretly watch the market, vendors in vegetable markets who calculate the rise and fall, and old people who want to provide additional subsidies for their children after retirement. They intertwined the sweet, sour, bitter and spicy into their daily lives, and tasted all the flavors of life in front of the alternating red and green screens.
This is a story about struggle, growth and enlightenment.
