Chapter: 180
At 30, Kevin, an internet elite, suddenly dies from overwork and wakes up to find himself back in his high school classroom in 2001. Faced with the golden era of the early internet, he decides to use his memories and industry experience from his past life to completely change the course of his future.
Just before the college entrance exams, he earns his first pot of gold by selling high-scoring essay templates. Then, sensing the huge potential of the digital music market, he develops an easy-to-use MP3 download tool called “Simple Plan”, which quickly gains millions of users and becomes his stepping stone into the internet industry.
As “Simple Plan” explodes in popularity, Kevin meets Zhou Xuecai, a future tech tycoon. Together, they co-found Vince Technologies. With a precise grasp of industry trends, their company launches successful products like antivirus software and YY Voice Chat, rapidly seizing the market. But commercial rivalry soon follows—traditional antivirus giants fiercely attack the free model used by Vince. Kevin, with his forward-thinking business strategy, disrupts the industry by adopting a “free + premium service” model, ultimately defeating his opponents and solidifying Vince's place in the market.
At the same time, Kevin continues to expand his investments—betting early on trends like e-commerce, smartphones, and mobile payments. He also ventures into film, entertainment, and game development, gradually building a massive business ecosystem.
Kevin's rebirth isn’t just about dominating the business world—he also faces complex emotional entanglements. He reunites with his high school crush Bella, trying to make up for past regrets. Meanwhile, brilliant women like his startup partner Amanda and investor Chris enter his life, forcing him to constantly balance between ambition and affection. In the whirlwind of wealth and power, Kevin must ask himself: What is the true meaning of being reborn? To become a business titan—or to reclaim the love he once missed?
As Vince Technologies rises to power, Kevin’s ambition grows beyond the domestic market. He leads his team into the global arena, competing with Silicon Valley giants and laying early foundations in emerging fields like smartphones, AI, and cloud computing. He knows the future of business warfare is not just about product or technology—but about ecosystems and standards. So, he works to integrate resources and push the globalization of China’s internet industry.
Standing at the peak of his business empire, Kevin begins to reflect on his rebirth journey. He realizes that the true “perfect era” is not just about wealth and power, but about shaping industries, transforming society, and protecting the people he cherishes. In the end, Kevin doesn’t just become a business legend—he grows alongside an entire era.
