Synopsis

Late at night at a street food stall, 25-year-old Chen Chao sat alone, drowning his sorrows in alcohol. As the front desk supervisor at the Licheng Garden Hotel in Shanghai, he earned a respectable 12,000 yuan a month, but most of it went back to his parents in Luohe, Henan. They were farmers, and his younger twin siblings, a boy and a girl, were both in their third year of university. He had supported them for three years straight. It was only after being promoted to supervisor a year ago that he finally got a little breathing room, but he still didn't dare date anyone. Scrimping and saving had become a habit.

Today, a fellow townsman had arranged a blind date, and Chen Chao had gone in full of hope. But he recognized the girl at once: she was the guest who had stayed at the hotel with an older man a few days ago and caused a scene over a billing dispute. She clearly recognized him too. The awkwardness was unbearable, and the date was over before they had even sat down.

As he drank to forget his troubles, a mechanical voice suddenly boomed in his mind: “Congratulations, Host, you have activated the Check-In Reward System. Check in at random to receive money, skills, connections, real estate, company shares, luxury cars, antiques, gold...” Skeptical but curious, he completed his first check-in, and a top-of-the-line Apple phone appeared out of thin air in his hand. On his second check-in, a huge sum of money appeared in his bank account.

From then on, Chen Chao's life was completely rewritten. With one check-in after another, his wealth steadily grew. In a short time, the poor kid who had never even dared to date became the world's richest man, writing one of the most unbelievable rags-to-riches legends of all time.
