Returning from Abroad, I Became the Father of Industry

[Historical fiction, no System, building a technological powerhouse]

Shen Huaijin stands in Tiananmen Square in 1949. He knows every step this country will take over the next seventy years. He knows which year it will face a blockade, which year it will make a breakthrough, and which year its steel output will surpass one hundred million tons.

While everyone else gropes their way through the dark, he goes straight to the finish line.

In two years, he builds the country's first basic oxygen furnace. In five, he brings the technology to the whole country. In thirty, the nation rises to prominence in everything from steelmaking to precision machine tools.

A reporter asks him the secret. He says, “I just happen to know which road is the right one.”

This is the story of someone with a complete understanding of modern industry who transmigrates back to the early years of the People's Republic. He has no System, no pocket dimension, only his own mind and a heart that refuses to give up.
