Features: Passion is the focal point of pain. All disappointments stubbornly transform into expectations, erupting in an instant. Every outburst always chooses the wrong moment, and happiness always slips away. No one is willing to do good and receive bad retribution, yet they are unaware that the retribution comes from ignorant kindness. Only when life ceases do people realize that humanity is not inherently good. If one could foresee their fate, why wait for the brink of death? Letting oneself be swept away by the red dust of the world, where the world's fortunes turn like the wind and clouds. Diving into the sea of passion and the sea of desire, where fluctuations resonate. In a corner of the coastal region of Fujian, China, once poor people, fishermen, and lawless individuals, since the late 20th century, have experienced a great division of fate. Sea smugglers became wealthy overnight. Diligent and hardworking people could not tolerate abject poverty. A mortal body with an unevolved spirit, lost in the halo of money, becomes disoriented, indulging in extreme greed. Thus, there came an overflow of speculation, the survival of the fittest, the fickleness of human relationships, loveless marriages, unrestrained debauchery, and even "sleeping with judicial personnel." There were fake breasts and highly sophisticated hymen restoration and vaginal tightening surgeries. There were extravagant passions, material desires, sexual desires, and sadistic desires, reaching an extreme state of excitement that was endless. With profound insight and the courage of a spiritual explorer, the author persistently delves into the hidden depths of the bizarre passions of the male and female protagonists; delves into the loneliness, anxiety, and suffering of those who possess nothing but money; delves into the spiritual journey of the poor who suddenly become millionaires, experiencing extreme confusion and enlightenment; delves into the unrestrained indulgence where desire becomes love, and love becomes indistinguishable from desire, along with the loss of love, delusions, conflicts, abnormalities, fraud, death, and even endocrine issues. Delving into the various souls of all shapes and sizes—thin and fat, dry and moist, chaste and lustful, pure and impure. Delving into the holiness of the survivors of true, good, and beauty, and the faint glow of human compassion that softly illuminates. The work speaks with deep sincerity and simplicity, yet its meaning is profound and far-reaching. With a respectful honesty and a complex aesthetic awareness, it vividly portrays the evolution of the national spirit and individual souls in an incredible era. The writing is subtle yet powerful, reaching into the depths with a sharp and vigorous brush, leaving readers both startled and captivated.
