Reborn Tycoon

Synopsis

Ethan built a startup with his partner Marcus, only to get ruthlessly betrayed. Marcus forged fake contracts to drain the company dry, saddling Ethan with crippling debt and dragging his innocent fiancée Sofia into relentless debt collection harassment. To tie up loose ends, Marcus staged a car crash to murder Ethan. As Ethan lay dying, a desperate prayer sent him back to 2020—the rock-bottom crash of Bitcoin. Driven to protect Sofia and avenge his betrayal, Ethan splits his life in two: a tender, doting boyfriend to Sofia behind closed doors, and a ruthless schemer plotting revenge in secret. He strikes a blood pact with underworld kingpin Karon, wagering his own hand if he loses to secure 10x leveraged crypto capital. Armed with foreknowledge of the future, he trades flawlessly and rises as an anonymous crypto tycoon. To ruin Marcus, Ethan teams up with Karon to sabotage every one of Marcus’s business ventures, leaving him broke and defeated. He then reveals the next trillion-dollar trend: TikTok short-form video. Signing A-list creators Slow and MrBeast, he builds an invisible media empire and amasses a staggering fortune. By 2023, Ethan grows sick of his brutal alliance with Karon, while Sofia grows suspicious of his double life. He plans to go legitimate—but Karon flies into a rage, kidnapping Ethan and ordering a hit on Sofia. Ethan uncovers a shocking truth: Karon is also a time traveler. He jumped back to 2015, unable to see events beyond that year and faded into ruin until Ethan restored his power. Ethan feigns surrender, luring Karon and his gang straight into a police ambush to wipe them out. Sofia rushes to his rescue, and Ethan lays bare all his secrets; the two reconcile. Ethan turns in the entire criminal ring and all illicit funds to authorities, fully clearing his name. Marcus lands in prison for his crimes. Though Ethan loses nearly all his wealth, he still holds exclusive foresight of the coming AI boom and knows exactly which stocks will skyrocket.
