Return to the Dawn of Artificial Intelligence

In June 2026, 46-year-old private business owner Chen Wangshan was pushed to the bottom of his life by debts, bad debts, chargebacks and family rifts. That night, he lay in his office at a small factory in the county town, with only a mobile workstation filled with future smart tools beside him. When he opened his eyes again, he returned to the era when artificial intelligence was just seen by the world. This year, the giants have not yet reacted, capital has not yet finished hunting, and most bosses still regard artificial intelligence as a gimmick. Chen Wangshan did not rush to shout slogans, nor did he become rich overnight. He started from a small factory that was almost unable to sustain itself. He started with slow-moving inventory, product brochures, sales pitches, corporate videos, smart customer service and payment collection from old customers, and put business strategies that would only mature in the next few years into a business that county bosses would understand. He revived the old factory, won the first pot of gold, killed the old local king, eliminated internal traitors, blocked capital control, and rushed into the national industrial belt. When platforms, giants and capital all wanted to recruit him, Chen Wangshan realized that what he wanted in this life was not simple wealth and freedom. He wants those small factories, small bosses, old workers and young technicians who have been left behind by the times to sit at the accounting table in the era of artificial intelligence.
