Reborn in 1983: After Prison, I Climb the Ranks Step by Step

In his previous life, Chen Jianjun went to prison to protect his cousin. The night before his release, however, he was attacked by a hired thug sent by his enemies. He spent the rest of his life destitute and alone.

When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to nine hours before the tragedy, with a notebook in his hand that refreshed itself daily with intelligence about the future.

[Tonight at midnight, Du Hao will stab your left kidney with a sharpened toothbrush.]

Chen Jianjun smiled. This time, he would no longer be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

He turned the tables on his attacker and crushed his enemies into the dirt.

This time around, you won't be getting out.

After his release, he headed south to the Binhai Special Economic Zone. He went from a laborer hauling cargo at the docks for his cousin to a trendsetter who used his intelligence to plan ahead and capitalize on favorable policies.

Every step Chen Jianjun took was timed to coincide with an era of change.

Those who bullied, humiliated, and harmed me in my previous life: I'll repay every last one of you.

And the family I let down before: This time, I'll protect them and give them lives of prosperity, making up for every regret.

“Last time, I lost everything. This time, I'm going to win the whole era!”

See how Chen Jianjun rises from a prisoner at the bottom of society to a business tycoon who commands the world, climbing higher with every step.
