   After being optimized, Anfeibi's personality changed drastically. At that moment, an electric current surged through his body; he should have died in that bathroom, but mysterious bio-energy from 2080 drifted in and resurrected him. The futuristic technological information flooding his mind made him exceptionally sharp-witted, and also allowed him to see clearly the series of devastating blows he had suffered in the first half of his life: being maliciously laid off by his boss, Wang Dahu; his wife, Zhang Qi, cheating on him and taking all his savings; his father being swindled out of his savings by a face-swapping scam gang and dying in resentment—his life had completely plummeted to rock bottom. Everyone thought this honest, unassuming technician was doomed to never recover. But he was resurrected, possessing cutting-edge technology, and joined forces with four former colleagues who had been maliciously ostracized to start a business. However, Wang Dahu always saw him as a thorn in his side. Secretly colluding with domestic and foreign forces, they set traps for him, creating obstacles: stealing core code, freezing accounts, hiring assassins… every single thing was aimed at him. Could he overcome the difficulties, break through the deadlock, and be reborn…?
