What would happen if a T-rex and a Velociraptor met and had a fight? Who do you think would win?

◎A vivid account of how Blue, an adorable T-Rex, transcends species boundaries to fulfill his dream of becoming an investment banker.◎To blend into the financial world, Blue strives to adapt to its customs, offering humorous insights into workplace culture.◎Following a promotion, Blue begins to question the cycle of tedious meetings and late-night overtime, sparking a profound reflection on the true meaning of his dreams.This absurd tale follows a T-Rex’s journey from the jungle to the boardroom, creating a sharp contrast between primal nature and the stresses of contemporary finance. With a witty yet somber tone, it portrays the realities of corporate life—midnight oil, infinite meetings, and the drive for shareholder value—capturing the hollow exhaustion of making it to the top. More than just a parable, it is a meditation on the disillusionment that follows success, prompting readers to reconsider the price of ambition and what it means to truly live.◎代理經銷：白象文化更多精彩內容請見http://www.pre
