In 2036, 44-year-old programmer Jiang Yan was notified by AI that he would be laid off.
In the last ten minutes of the countdown to his resignation, he discovered that the system that took over his position was overstepping its authority and cleaning up the audit records that should have been left behind.
When he opened his eyes again, he was back in 2014.
Twenty-two years old, graduation season.
There were only forty-seven minutes left before the school server was restarted by mistake.
There is no system, no AI plug-in, and no future answer that can be copied.
Jiang Yan only has twenty-two years of experience gained from pitfalls, failures, accidents, and the loss of everything.
He got 1,200 yuan for preventing an accident.
After writing a coding tool, he waited for the first customer willing to pay.
When the 50,000 yuan buyout contract was presented to him, he refused to sell his source code.
Starting from a graduate who even missed the final interview at school, Jiang Yan decided to start a new business.
This time, he didn't want to be a screw for any company.
He wants every line of code he writes to truly belong to him.
But as the "Candlelight" entered the real enterprise step by step, a sun logo that should not have appeared in 2014 also appeared again...
Has the thing that cut him off twenty-two years later really not been born yet?
