Tang Jing's father was from the Reform and Opening-Up period. He was a local Shanghainese, and during that time, all he needed to do was stay at home obediently and wait for the country to develop, but he did not.
1992 was a very important year in the Reform and Opening-Up period because that year solidified the country's economic status and Shanghai's stock exchange was introduced.
From the original
Tang Jing's father believed that this was a golden opportunity, so he persuaded the entire family to sell the house and invest all the money in new shares and subscription warrants.
However, since the house was his family's roots, Tang Jing's grandfather almost strangled his own son for doing something this risky.
