Riding the Tide of 1999: From Scrap King to Billionaire

After jumping off a building, he is reborn in 1999 as a down-and-out student at a scrapyard. He has no money in his pocket, no power, and only an ancient Nokia phone and memories of the future from 2024.

No one believes he can turn his life around. Dao, the loan shark, is waiting to chop off his hand. An executive at a securities firm warns him to stay away from his daughter. The local toughs in the west of the city have their eyes on the scrapyard and are ready to make a move at any moment.

But Zhou Yuanche knows: in three days, the "5.19 rally" will set China's stock market ablaze. A year later, the internet bubble will give rise to countless legends. Ten years later, real estate, Bitcoin, and smartphones: every new trend will give ordinary people a chance to change their fate against all odds.

And he'll be at the very forefront of every one of them.

The aloof top student Lin Wanzheng is the first piece of his financial empire. Tech-savvy girl Su Xiaoyue will use code to help him conquer the internet. The beautiful landlady Shen Qingwan will dominate the real estate market. Mixed-race heiress Zhao Anni will be his leverage in international capital.

Four women, four kinds of strength, four entangled relationships.

Some call him a business genius, while others say he's a child of fortune. Only he knows the truth: this isn't luck. It's twenty-five years of memories, lessons bought with blood and tears, and the chance fate gave him to start over.

This time, he'll rise from the scrapyard and trample everyone who looked down on him.

This time, he'll protect everyone he let down in his previous life.

1999: The winds of change are rising. He returns from the ruins to reclaim everything that belongs to him!
