In 2030, chief scientist Li Hunyu collapsed at a celebration banquet.
When he opened his eyes again, he was back in 1996, in a classroom at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
That year, public intellectuals were everywhere, chips were considered a myth, and rare earths were sold off cheaply as if they were dirt.
Fortunately, he had brought back an army of deathsworn soldiers and a pocket dimension.
He would start with internet cafes, build a nation on rare earths, and break through with lithography.
Who says China can't make high-end magnetic materials? Who says we can't do without Western chips?
This time, he would silence everyone who wrote China off for good.
Starting with this gram of rare earth, I will forge the pillars of a great power!
