System + The Rise of Chinese Laborers + Godfather of America + Hard-Core Nation-Building + Two Fronts: Homeland and Family
1865, a railroad construction site in the American West.
Conditions from hell, white men abusing Chinese workers with impunity, and fellow countrymen dying in numb silence...
Cornered and desperate, Lin Yue awakened the Self-Reliance System!
From the start, he unlocked miraculous Chinese medicine skills: save lives to earn prestige, mine for gold, and kill to get weapons!
From a squad of ten to three hundred fearless fighters, he led Chinese laborers in the 1867 strike, taking on the capitalist giants head-on and becoming a legend in a single battle!
In San Francisco’s Chinatown, he carved a path with blood and steel, brought the local brotherhoods together, and founded the Chinese Association, crushing the Irish gangs and white supremacist groups!
With the Chinese Exclusion Act hanging over them, he turned around and built Chinese banks and arms factories, then moved into oil, railroads, and shipping, forcing white men to play by his rules!
Heading east to New York, he punched the Mafia, kicked Jewish tycoons, and took on Rockefeller and Morgan!
When the great San Francisco earthquake struck in 1906, he turned the tide and became a hero to the people!
With a private army of five thousand, a fully developed military industry, control over Chinese communities across America, and influence reaching into the White House and Senate, he became the true uncrowned king of America!
In 1911, the Xinhai Revolution broke out.
Across the Pacific, with tens of millions in assets and a limitless arsenal at his disposal, he looked at the System’s ultimate authority and made his choice:
He would send half his wealth and technology back home to support the revolution!
He would remain in America to protect the foundations Chinese immigrants had built overseas!
From then on, the world had a legendary godfather whose power spanned China and America!
