Kompletní popis

Rooted in the neon-drenched grit of a fragmented China, this definitive Chinese Cyberpunk tale reimagines the "World's Factory" as a sovereign city-state where the "Chinese Dream" has been digitized and sold.

In a near-future, post-war Shenzhen, the line between humanity and technology has been commodified into a haunting new reality known as "Soul Ore". In this sovereign city-state, the tech giant HuaCent Group extracts human consciousness-stripping away memory and emotion-to create high-grade AI for its global robot exports.

The narrative weaves together three desperate lives caught in a web of corporate conspiracy:

  • Ruoxi Lam: A rogue hacker living as a fugitive in the urban village of Foo-shing. She is driven by a singular mission: to find her brother, Avei, whose consciousness was uploaded to HuaCent's "digital immortality" project, AbyssNet, leaving his physical body brain-dead.
  • Amin: A debt-ridden trucker and "Split Brain" who sold copies of his own mind to HuaCent for survival. He discovers a devastating betrayal-his own digitized voice was used to lure his sister, Lili, into a trafficking trap in Shenzhen's dark underbelly.
  • Victor Chan: A retired admiral and CEO of SouthSea Transport, the commercial arm of the South Sea Fleet. Operating with quasi-sovereign status at Salt Port, Chan is pressured by American interests to investigate the Chest-Born Project-a clandestine HuaCent operation to weaponize consciousness by overwriting the brains of global leaders with programmable digital "souls".

Shenzhen Republic: Soul Ore is a gritty cyberpunk thriller that explores the ethical abyss of the digital age. It poses a chilling question: when the mind can be copied, edited, and sold, what truly remains of the human soul?
