Counter Flow Core Forming

In the late autumn of 1990, Sichuan boy Chen Baiyi was beaten by his father and left home slamming the door. Penniless, he boarded a train bound for Zhengzhou and exchanged tears and lies for hot soup noodles. When he was living on the streets, he peeked at people eating because of hunger, but was slapped in the face and his face was swollen. Destiny took a turn for the better in Gurong Township - a kind-hearted aunt took him in to hoe the fields, and the nine girls in the brick factory smiled like flowers for him. But the cold winter had not yet come, and he was homesick and left without saying goodbye. The heartbreaking cry of the girl outside the car window became the most difficult debt for him to let go of for the rest of his life. When he returned home and knelt down to see his old parents, he made a blood oath: "I will never make my parents cry again in this life!" On his second trip south, he fought alone as soon as he left Guangzhou Station; he rescued the robbed mixed-race elite Elini in an alleyway late at night, and his life changed forever. He followed her to the United States for further study and witnessed the pain of China under chip hegemony. He resolutely returned to China: "This 'chip' must be made by the Chinese themselves!" From starting out as a workshop to fighting against international giants, price strangulation, patent litigation, and secret wars for talent followed one after another. But the ninth girl who was abandoned by him actually paid the price of never marrying for the rest of her life. The one who conquered the stars and the sea side by side with him was Elini, whose souls were in harmony... The young man who goes against the flow has experienced ups and downs for half his life, and finally turns his blood and tears into a "Chinese core". But behind the billions of empires, how should we rest our hearts?
