The Money Path

Delivery driver Han Wude rushes into the stock market with 5,000 yuan, thinking he's found the key to wealth, only to be battered by ST Huaye delisting, chasing surges and getting trapped, and cutting losses while holding on, losing so much he questions life. Over an eight-yuan plain noodle at a hole-in-the-wall eatery, he realizes: stocks aren't gambling chips, but ownership certificates of companies. But understanding companies is easy; controlling oneself is hard—the market is a massive emotional amplifier, magnifying greed and fear a hundredfold, trapping people in a vicious cycle of all-in, holding on, and cutting losses. Over ten years, starting with a thousand yuan practice, he experiences bear markets, private fund scandals, and the siege of desire, building his own investment system through being slapped and slapping others. He discovers that the most expensive thing in this market isn't stocks, but lessons; the hardest thing isn't making money, but admitting you're an ordinary person. A darkly humorous tale of a retail investor's evolution, a protracted battle against human weaknesses. When you stop staring at red and green numbers, you've truly entered the door.
