Curator note

I will rewrite the synopsis after the book is finished. This book is about entrepreneurship and records history. It's not about being reborn ten or twenty years ago, but about living in the present. The novel's timeline spans from January 2018 to May 2021, with the story ending thereafter. It was serialized from August 2018 to June 2020, and on April 1, 2020, the novel's timeline officially caught up with reality. The protagonist of this book, Chu Yuanxi, has a diverging path in two parallel universes. In 2014, one of them resolutely embarks on the path of entrepreneurship, while the other continues to work as a lazy bum. In January 2018, the entrepreneur has reached the pinnacle of his life, but his soul jumps to the bum's body, where he only has his skills but no resources to show for himself. These two years have been tumultuous in reality, both in terms of global dynamics and the entrepreneurial field. The book closely follows current events, covering almost all the major events in the entrepreneurial environment of the country. With a heart full of surging emotions and the ever-changing world, Chu Yuanxi finally upgrades and iterates the entrepreneurial project that succeeded by walking a tightrope in the original world. Starting with self-media short videos, he innovates many times, redefines the track, and crushes the iron curtain giant. This book primarily focuses on the workplace, depicting both the cutthroat competition and the relentless pursuit of success in business. Each character has their own desires and convictions, displaying genuine emotions as well as selfishness and hypocrisy, striving for authenticity. Readers say that the book's excessive realism is its biggest flaw, but it is also what makes it unique.
