Lin Bei transmigrates to the Red Kingdom and becomes the bankrupt heir to a company burdened with three hundred million in debt.
He binds himself to the Prodigal System, whose rules are simple and brutal: lose money to earn rewards, make money and face punishment. Fail a mission and you die on the spot.
Lin Bei is overjoyed: Isn't this exactly the laid-back life I've always wanted?
So he...
Gives the entire company double year-end bonuses, moving the employees to tears and doubling productivity;
Invests in the worst sunset industry, only for it to receive government support and become the next big thing;
Spends a fortune on packaging in a "deathly" color scheme, which goes viral for being adorably ugly and becomes a hit product;
Invests in an artsy film everyone agrees is doomed to flop, only for netizens to spread it around as a comedy and send its box office soaring...
The System: "Ding! Host earned XX million in profit. Reward halved. Please keep trying!"
Lin Bei: "Are you messing with me?!"
The more he tries to lose money, the more he earns. The more he tries to slack off, the more people hail him as a "business genius."
From a bankrupt young heir to the Red Kingdom's richest man, from being chased by reporters who curse him to receiving the official "National Entrepreneur" award.
He just wants to ask one thing: Why is it so hard to lose money?
When the System's truth is revealed and a global crisis erupts, Lin Bei finally realizes...
Every time he "lost money," he was actually building up blessings for the Red Kingdom.
And by now, there's no stopping him.
