The Glass Boardroom
At a coastal redevelopment boardroom lined with glass and contempt, Jin Haoran endures Wei Cheng’s public humiliation of his discharged military past while Shen Yulan struggles to protect the family’s shoreline property from a rigged tender. Haoran quietly spots a procedural discrepancy in the valuation documents, then exposes enough of the mismatch to fracture the room’s certainty and force an hours-long deadline. After the board leaves, he discovers a missing valuation page removed from inside the tender packet, and Luo Qian reveals the corruption already has police sign-off—expanding the conflict beyond one chairman into a larger institutional war.
