In a world where everyone chased after profits and conformity stifled creativity, Pei Qian was an outlier. He wasn’t driven by the typical desire for wealth and success; instead, he harbored an unusual longing—to lose money.
Bound by the mysterious Wealth Conversion System, Pei found himself in a perplexing situation where gains meant accumulating wealth, but losses lined his own pockets. Rather than exploiting this system like others would, Pei saw it as an opportunity to challenge the status quo.
Entering the competitive game industry, Pei deliberately crafted games that broke away from market expectations. He embraced artistic freedom over financial gain, creating titles with unconventional mechanics, bizarre stories, and daring designs.
To his amazement—and his quiet distress—Pei’s games resonated with players. They became unexpected sensations, praised for their boldness and originality. With each setback, Pei’s reputation as a “business wizard” grew, though it felt more like a burden than an honor.
Yet, beneath the veneer of success, Pei grappled with a profound truth. He wasn’t a shrewd entrepreneur but rather a reluctant rebel, trapped in a cycle of prosperity he never sought. With every triumph, he felt the weight of unintended success, yearning to break free from the relentless pursuit of wealth and reclaim his true purpose—to live life on his own terms, even if it meant losing at the game of riches.
