Summary "商界現形記" by Tianzhuisheng is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set against the backdrop of Shanghai's bustling merchant scene and follows the life of Zhou Ziyan, an ambitious and resourceful businessman who navigates the complexities of trade and relationships in a rapidly changing society. The work delves into themes of wealth, morality, and social dynamics, capturing the intricate interplay between business dealings and personal affairs. The opening of the novel introduces Zhou Ziyan, also referred to as Zhou San, who is characterized as a notorious merchant engaged in a variety of businesses, primarily driven by profit. This portion sets the stage for his interactions with other characters, including his friend Wang Wenglin and a courtesan named Hei Mudan. The narrative unfolds in a lively manner as it describes Zhou's quest for a suitable company name while he grapples with the trivialities of life in the pleasure districts of Shanghai. It highlights the intertwining of business, pleasure, and the societal roles of various characters within the context of Shanghai's commercial culture. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
