Road to Persia

Fire Ox "The Road to Persia" In 2009, a think tank report "Road to Persia" marked as "top secret" was produced in a windowless conference room. The four authors - curators, analysts, diplomats, and strategists - used calm and professional language to write detailed scripts of "velvet revolution", "ethnic conflicts", "economic pressure" and "military intervention", and estimated the "range of acceptable losses". Seventeen years later, on February 28, 2026, the war between Israel and Iran broke out. Missile landing points, ethnic conflicts, soaring oil prices, death tolls - every step is accurately consistent with the report's predictions. Xiao Zhou, a 25-year-old social media editor, accidentally dug out this dusty report when he was pushing the 787th death number. Feeling chills down her spine, she resigned and founded the website "787 Names" in an attempt to restore cold numbers to life with faces. But the most terrifying thing happened: when the script was discovered, the war did not stop, but acted more seriously. Policymakers are silent, the media continues to push, global markets are in shock, and ordinary people are bearing the concrete pain of rising oil prices. Only 30 percent resisted—projecting names, hacking billboards, writing poetry, and organizing memories. Forty years later, in 2066, A Wei, a history student, discovered this report in the digital archives. She read through 787 names and asked the ultimate question: "How do we know if we have a script now?"
