In 1914, the United States had transitioned from the Gilded Age to the Progressive Age, enjoying 40 years of peace and a comfortable environment, and was the world's most powerful nation.

As world war looms, the curtain slowly rises on a golden age of emerging aviation industry, and a time traveler arrives.

What mark can it leave in this turbulent era?

Alan, a business elite, died in a car accident under a heavy truck, but his soul accidentally traveled to New York in 1860 and became a 19-year-old Irish youth with nothing.

With only $75 in his pocket, he built a canning factory from scratch using modern business thinking, expanding it to become a company. During the turbulent years of the Civil War, his assets soared thanks to precise planning.

With the advent of the Gilded Age, he expanded into oil, steel, military industry, railroads, and even ventured into media, real estate, electrical technology, and the hotel industry. From a contemporary elite to a 19th-century pauper, how did he create a multi-faceted, top-tier family tycoon in America a century ago?

The life of Wall Street's most legendary short.

During the Battle of Los Angeles, illegal immigrant Chen Ping died unexpectedly.

With deep resentment, Chen Ping was reborn in America in 1891 and possessed the body of a 14-year-old white boy named Larry Livingston.

His lack of historical knowledge in his previous life and this premature rebirth left him completely unable to seize the opportunities of the times.

But he always felt that he was extraordinary and that he should be a legend.

A voice told him:

Go to Wall Street, that is your battlefield...

38 years later, in 1929, Larry Livingston became a legendary trader feared by Wall Street. He single-handedly planned the U.S. stock market crash and the economic crisis that swept the world!

Everyone who went bankrupt because of Livingston cursed him to go to hell.

But Livingston said,

"Hell? I am the devil who returned from hell. I am the ghost that roams over the capitalist world! Tonight, I want to hear the sound of kneecaps cracking all over Wall Street!"

(Rebirth + endless war in the financial market + a little disturbance of history = the life of a legendary Wall Street short)

(By the way, this article should probably be placed in the [Fan Fiction] category)

Travel back in time to 19th-century Greece and witness his rise from a small Balkan nation. Lead Greece to its great ideals, restore the glory of Rome, and make the name of "Rome" known from Ireland to Khitan! And this is Constantine, the only sun of the Balkan Peninsula, the heir of Komnenos, the second Aristotle, the world's restorer, the Turkic butcher, and the loving father of the Roman people: Rome has only one chance to be revived. If you don't seize it, then let me do it!

In 1849, the California Gold Rush swept the world. But for Chen Mo, who had already been there for three months, it was not heaven, but hell. Driven away by white miners, he was forced to toil in vain on the barren riverbanks, exchanging his efforts for cold mud and "fools' gold." He faced ostracism from his fellow Chinese, who considered him an outsider because of his short hair and lack of a queue; nobody cared about him. The extortion from Master Chen, with his monthly protection fee of three dollars—more than his rent—suffocated him. Just when he was once again cornered in the river by thugs, his life hanging by a thread, he obtained the [Daily Intelligence System]!

A particularly nostalgic story. Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, Billy Wilder… Roman Holiday, The Seven Year Itch, Witness for the Prosecution… From black and white to color films, let's revisit that creative cinematic world and those old movies that still seem interesting today.

In 1920, the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution—Prohibition—officially took effect. Jesse Lindsay, transported to Chicago, built his "beverage" business during the Roaring Twenties. At that time, Al Capone, the underground emperor, was just taking his first steps towards dominating Chicago. As the iron fist of the Great Depression slammed into the bubble of false prosperity, Jesse Lindsay's name had already resounded throughout North America!

In 1883, on the blood-and-fire western frontier, the Dutton family embarked on a westward journey: veteran James protected his family, rebellious daughter Elsa sought freedom, and precocious teenager Tom tamed the fierce green mule "Loach," struggling to survive amidst bandit raids and the desolate wilderness. Armed with covered wagons and lever-action rifles, they enforced an ironclad law between gallows-lined towns and vast grasslands: tame the wilderness or be devoured by it.
