Features: Ziye depicts the social phenomena of the early 1930s, with the protagonist, the national capitalist Wu Songfu, at its core, painting a broad social panorama. It not only showcases the ruthless struggle in the stock market, the arduous struggles of small and medium-sized national industries, the base actions of various landlords, and the decadent lives of the bourgeoisie, but also includes scenes of workers' strikes and peasant uprisings. Ziye presents to us a tragedy of the fate of national industrial capital in a capitalist society.
