He can play the zither, evoking the totems of civilization and stunning the world; he can appraise and date treasures, making a decisive judgment at Panjiayuan Market; and he possesses both "a heart of zither and a heart of swordsmanship," his ancient martial arts moves imbued with the fantastical light and shadow of intangible cultural heritage, repelling enemies without a trace.

Faced with the Qin family's commercial strangulation, the "Black Cross" organization's cultural plunder, and the open and covert attacks of international forces, he joins hands with the gentle ancient book restorer Su Qingwan, the charming business queen Shen Mei, the fiery ancient martial arts successor Chu Yao, and the capable Interpol agent Ye Jinbao, navigating antique streets, auction houses, and cultural secrets.

From the capital to the world, he has used his unparalleled talent to blend intangible cultural heritage with technology and fantasy. Amidst political intrigue, business battles, and dialogues between civilizations, he has safeguarded the cultural heritage of China, making the name "Wen Shu Ge" resound throughout the world and writing a legend of civilization protection and global confrontation.
