This thought-provoking book documents the industrial rise of China after it opened its door in 1978. U.S. economy underwent a transition from manufacturing to service during the last 50 years. Back in 1960, manufacturing accounts for about 1/3 of US GDP. Currently, it stands at 11%. In comparison, China's manufacturing industry is flat in terms of GDP percentage during the same period of time, with the notable difference that China's GDP grew from 0.3 trillion USD in 1980 to 15 T USD in 2020. At the same time, China has passed US in industrial value added, a critical metric to evaluate industrial output. This change is monumental and has many economic and political implications in the sino-US bilateral relationship and world order.

Change is not always easy. This (very long) fiction contains many stories of how resistance towards industrialization was overcome in China during this rapid growth period. Here, in US, we face a similar challenge, only vice-versa. The deindustrialization, as a movement, has swept through US. Is this the destiny, or just an episode? This awaits to be seen.
