A green field of 120*53 yards, U-shaped goals spaced 18 feet apart, a whistle, 4 quarters and 60 minutes, 11 players on the field, a 30-person coaching staff, a 46-person roster, hundreds of sideline staff, tens of thousands of spectators cheering in unison, tens of millions of people watching from the sidelines, and hundreds of millions of dollars in commercial sponsorships. This is just a normal football game weekend. The winner gains both fame and fortune and takes everything. The loser is dejected and has nothing. All or Nothing? As a person who appears in multiple newspaper pages in sports, entertainment, finance, business, technology, and culture, his public image is undoubtedly complicated. Those who love him say that he is the savior of the green field, the founder of commercial sports, the pioneer bull of Wall Street, the harvester of Hollywood, the godfather of Silicon Valley, an old friend of lobbying groups, and a beneficiary of two financial crises. Among those who hated him, he became "a team tyrant with no professional ethics", "an unscrupulous opportunist", "the heir to Hugh Hefner's mantle", "alien from Area 52", "a broker on K Street" and "a media conglomerate's legion".

Rewrite the introduction after finishing the book. This book is about entrepreneurship and recording history. It is not about rebirth ten or twenty years ago, but about living in the present. The novel timeline begins in January 2018 and ends in May 2021. The serialization begins in August 2018 and ends in June 2020. On April 1, 2020, the novel timeline officially caught up with reality. The protagonist of this book, Chu Yuanxi, has a bifurcated trend in two parallel universes. In 2014, one resolutely embarked on the road of entrepreneurship, and the other continued to work as a salted fish. In January 2018, the entrepreneur had reached the peak of his life, and his soul jumped to the salted fish. He only had one skill and no resources. This has been a turbulent two years in reality, both in global dynamics and in the entrepreneurial field. The book closely follows current events and almost goes through the major events in the entrepreneurial environment of the country. After many emotions and changes in the world, Chu Yuanxi finally upgraded and iterated the successful entrepreneurial project of walking on the tightrope in the original world. He started with self-media short videos, failed many times, innovated, redefined the track, and defeated the iron curtain giants. This book mainly focuses on the workplace, business intrigues or struggling to move forward. The characters each have their own demands and persistence, some have sincere emotions, some have selfishness and hypocrisy, and strive to be true. Readers say that being too real is the flaw of this book, but it is also the unique feature of this book.
