In 2015, Zhang Quanling, a "famous mouth of CCTV", resigned from CCTV because he was misdiagnosed as "lung cancer" due to coughing up blood, flew to Shanghai alone with all his savings of 1.47 million, found a 31-year-old "second bastard", and said to him: "Resign, start a business with me!" Unexpectedly, this seemingly impulsive decision made the two people fame and fortune two years later.
As the saying goes: "Mountains and rivers are doubtful and there is no way, and the willows are dark and the flowers are bright and another village." "The Heavenly Invincible Road is the most suitable for Zhang Quanling." Because of a brain-opening decision, she made a migrant worker with an annual salary of less than 100,000 people into a person with no worries about food and clothing.
No matter from which point of view, the life of Zhang Quanling, the "desperate three women", is a success, once a famous mouth of CCTV, hosting programs such as "Focus Interview" and "Oriental Time and Space", with a promising future and a happy family.
But in 2015, fate played a big joke on her. Zhang Quanling often felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, originally thought it was just overwork, and then suddenly began to cough up blood, went to the hospital for examination and was told that he was suspected of having lung cancer.
This news is simply a thunderbolt for Zhang Quanling, Zhang Quanling's husband Li Tie is 18 years older than her, this year her husband is already 60 years old, and her son is only 9 years old, Zhang Quanling can't imagine what it means for his life if he is diagnosed with lung cancer.
Disheartened, Zhang Quanling immediately quit his job and decided to enjoy the "last days". Who knows, when the second review was carried out, it was found that it was a misdiagnosis "big oolong". Zhang Quanling, who has experienced the ups and downs of her life, has undergone a huge change in her state of mind, and she sighed: "In the second half of my life, I want to start again!" ”
Opportunities are always left to those who work hard and are not willing to be mediocre. Once, Zhang Quanling saw his son who was usually silent and reticent and grinned, Zhang Quanling walked over to take a look and was surprised to find that his son was holding a tablet to read historical comics.
Curiosity let Zhang Quanling and his son look at this public account called "Mixed Son", this picture is "An Lushan Rebellion", cute comics plus witty language, Zhang Quanling only looked at it for a while, and laughed until his stomach hurt.
At first glance, An Lushan was a piece of harmless pork belly for people and animals, and relying on the skill of patting horses, he was stunned to coax Tang Xuanzong to blossom happily.
When An Lushan rebelled, others asked him why he was soft when the festival made the time soft, and the war was so fierce, An Lushan's words made people laugh: "Nonsense, can starting a business be the same as part-time work?" ”
Zhang Quanling suddenly came to be interested, usually his son hates history, but this comic book makes him love it, is this not a huge business opportunity? She immediately contacted the author of the public account "two bastards" Chen Lei.

Chen Lei never dreamed that the CCTV celebrity would actually find himself. He had dinner with Zhang Quanling in anxiety, but Zhang Quanling bluntly asked him to resign and concentrate on making cartoons. Chen Lei said that when he went back to consider it, when he squeezed the subway, he actually received Zhang Quanling's 1.47 million!
Chen Lei was suddenly not calm, he also wanted to prove himself, did not want to do nothing for a lifetime. He didn't expect that after a few days, he would receive Zhang Quanling's 15 million! Therefore, he was fierce, quit his job, and immediately decided to follow Zhang Quanling!
