N City Theater Calendar

In N City, the closing bell only pauses prices. Desire keeps trading. Algorithms, neural terminals, and a financial district that never sleeps make wealth move faster than human regret. Young Lin Yuan has yet to become an outstanding trader, but he has a habit of looking past people’s opinions to see the pride, fear, and secrets they are desperate to protect. Each story draws on a single day in a real-world market. They stand alone, yet together paint a portrait of the many faces of capital in N City. Families are squeezed below the cost line, reputations are hidden in trading positions, and victories that never happened can still show handsome returns in Excel. Wealth is only the first answer the market offers. Lin Yuan puts himself into this game that never ends, wanting to know: when human desire can be observed, calculated, and even manipulated, can someone who sees through every illusion still hold on to his freedom?
