Jenius (2015)

Description:

"Jenius" plunges into the dark world of J, a brilliant but deeply troubled student from a family of geniuses. Eccentric and unsociable, J prefers skipping classes to delve into obscure formulas. His erratic behavior escalates when he deliberately inflicts self-harm in front of his peers, then vanishes without a trace. Months later, a new transfer student, Chu Xia, arrives with a peculiar assignment: find J and deliver a letter from her teacher. As Chu Xia delves into the investigation, she uncovers the profound strangeness of J's abandoned house, hinting at secrets far grander than a mere student's disappearance. This personal quest unfolds against a backdrop of intense corporate espionage, as China's telecommunication companies engage in a fierce, high-stakes business battle, suggesting J's enigmatic past and current whereabouts might be intertwined with this global conflict. The search for "Jenius" becomes a thrilling journey into a complex web of technology, family secrets, and psychological torment.
