Synopsis

[Reborn in the Millennium] [Entrepreneurship] [Intangible Cultural Heritage Ceramics] [Foreign Trade] [No Couple]

The kiln fires have burned for a thousand years. After the turn of the millennium, Eastern ceramics once again take the world by storm.

Just after the 2004 Spring Festival, Chen You was reborn.

In her previous life, the words "I'll take care of you" had trapped her in a marriage for the rest of her life. In return, her husband cheated, her son despised her, and she died alone in a hospital.

This time, she felt the 20,000 yuan in her pocket and dug out 45 unfinished Shiwan pottery figurines from a corner of the warehouse, about to be smashed to pieces.

In her last life, she'd heard someone say that a buyer from Hong Kong was willing to pay a high price for them.

So she decisively ditched the scumbag, claimed the unfinished pieces, and headed north to make her way in the capital.

While the market was crowded with people reselling mass-produced goods, she saw the potential in Shiwan ceramics and traditional craftsmanship. She specialized in custom-made ceramics inspired by Chinese aesthetics and built a supply chain of intangible cultural heritage artisans ahead of the curve.

Starting by spotting a bargain among the unfinished pieces, she opened a studio and seized on the national recognition of intangible cultural heritage and the concept of online IP. Step by step, she made her way into the capital's foreign trade scene in the new millennium, pursuing her goal of becoming a new-century businesswoman.
