In 1998, Cheng Yuan, carrying 28 years of business knowledge from the future, dies suddenly and is reborn at 18, on the eve of the college entrance exams.
In his previous life, he caught every rising wave only to fail every time. In the end, his partners schemed against him, his family fell apart, and he died of a heart attack in a rented apartment. In this life, his mind holds a "Business Almanac of the Future": the dot-com bubble, the launch of the iPhone, the global financial crisis... Every piece of information is a key to defying fate and changing his life.
But he will no longer chase after trends. He wants to make up for what he owes his wife, reunite with his old buddies who never got anywhere, and fulfill his father's wish: "To drive a harvester we built ourselves."
Starting with a campus print shop, moving on to a small workshop in Huaqiangbei, then expanding aggressively during the SARS outbreak and acquiring core German technology during the financial crisis... Cheng Yuan crushes his rivals with his information advantage and outmaneuvers them with his strategic foresight. While others speculate in stocks and real estate, he throws himself into the toughest industries, making motors and sensors and investing in smart cars and smart agriculture.
From making up for regrets to creating the future, from one man's comeback against all odds to the glory of an era shared by many. No System, no cultivation, just the lessons of his past life and the courage of this one, as he takes another journey with his brothers. This time, he will make Chinese manufacturing shake the world.
