What it's about

Most short drama revenge arcs centre a woman wronged by a man. This one flips it — a male lead, a corporate humiliation, and a quiet, methodical dismantling of everyone who underestimated him. GoodShort built something genuinely different here.

Like most revenge series in the short-drama format, You Fired a Tech Genius is built around the one-minute cliffhanger. Each of the 80 episodes lands on a turn, a reveal, or a confrontation designed to make you tap unlock just one more time. The first 5 episodes are free, and they're paced to hook you before the paywall kicks in.

It lives on GoodShort. The series is complete, so what you see is what you pay for.
