Island Alliance

Six frustrated people, burdened with debts and each with their own personal grudges, took refuge in the remote Ma'an Island. They wanted to bury their failed past alone, but accidentally opened up a tea plantation and were forced to work together to make a living. Former producer Song Lei, the face-saving Wenzhou businessman Lao Chen, the young entrepreneur Lin Zhou who believes in algorithms, Wang Shiyong who is good at handicrafts, Xuanzi who is burdened with human debts, and Shen Nian who is carrying the debt alone, each has shackles that cannot be let go. A video of daily life on the island unexpectedly became popular. Investor Lao Guo landed on the island with a five million contract and tried to break up the six people with generous terms. After experiencing quarrels, separation, and reunion, they reconciled with themselves among the sea breeze and tea trees. Everyone refused capital acquisition and used the money to build a public tea house, which confirmed the core of the book: real wealth is never money, but people who still choose to accompany each other when they hit rock bottom. Subsequently, Zhao Ming, a chef who was in debt, landed on the island, and the isolated island finally became a healing place for the frustrated.
