This book tells the story of how an outstanding young reporter was forced by the social situation. Starting from killing people in self-defense, he gradually became a dominant overlord with huge assets and everything he wanted, and finally went to the trial stand and the execution ground. The story is intertwined with the sharp contradiction between pursuing success and following and promoting morality, revealing the inner confusion of contemporary young people in a social background where old values have collapsed and new values have not been fully established. At the same time, the chapter describes the love story between the protagonist Chu Jinfan and three women with completely different status, character, identity and philosophy, which is thought-provoking.
