This is a chronicle of survival under a gilded, watchful power. Follow Jiang Qin, a strategic prodigy who has grown from a student entrepreneur into a force that reshapes entire industries. Now, as his pregnant wife waits at home and calls him "treasure," the final act of the taxi war unfolds—not on the streets, but on a stage in Jiangnan.
Witness the chaos as Uber's founder Travis Kalanick, once so arrogant he declared Chinese businesses "trash," stands defeated at an international internet conference, his mouth wound still fresh. Watch as Jiang, in a televised interview, casually declares that a billion dollars is a "small goal"—and a nation loses its mind. From the tender chaos of a camping trip where old friends gather around suspiciously supermarket-like "wild" fish, to the brutal boardrooms where empires are dismantled and reassembled, this novel maps a descent into the machinery of success—and the fragile, beautiful human connections that survive it.
For readers who loved the unsettling bureaucracy of Severance or the fractured identities of The Passenger, AI Can Love After Being Regenerated offers a mirror to the cages we build. May you enter this arena… and find your way back out.
