A Record of a Powerful Man's Rise in the 1990s

[Please read these content warnings. Thank you.]

Before she transmigrated, Fu Qiao was an orphan, but Heaven made it up to her by giving her a brilliant mind. She entered the University of Science and Technology of China gifted program at fifteen, earned a PhD in mathematics from the University of Chicago at twenty-three, and successfully cashed out her shares at twenty-seven, becoming worth over a hundred million.

After transmigrating, Heaven was still fairly kind to her. Her mind and appearance were just as they had been before. The only difference was that she now had a father who had died in service, a mother who had remarried, and an aunt and uncle who treated her like Cinderella.

Her top priority was obviously to get away.

Thanks to her father's connections and the help of his old comrade-in-arms, Fu Qiao, who had nearly been left with only a high school education, finally resolved the issue of repeating her studies and got into her alma mater once again.

In the 1990s, chips were moving from microns to submicrons, RISC architecture was proposed and made a splash, TSMC had only recently been founded, and personal computers were becoming widespread. This was the golden age that laid the foundations for the development of semiconductors.

At the same time, the Gulf War broke out. This war, which lasted just twenty-eight days and resulted in very few casualties, sounded an alarm for the whole world and heralded the age of military information technology.

Technology was advancing, the armed forces needed to transform, and talent was the key.

Now that she was here, why shouldn't she try to throw herself into the tides of this era?

Ride the waves, strike out through the current, and rise above all others.
