About This Novel
Ma Ka Fai's first feature film focuses on "Once Upon a Time in Hong Kong", and Johnnie To is preparing to make a movie. Du Qifeng, Luo Dayou, Zhang Dachun, Wang Dewei, Yan Lianke and Jin Yucheng jointly recommended. It's more vigorous than "Shanghai", colder than "Infernal Affairs", and more touching than "Once Upon a Time in America". In 1936, the current situation in China was chaotic and unclear, and civil and foreign wars were about to break out. Lu Beicai, who was originally a carpenter in the countryside of Guangdong, was thrown into the waves of the times, rubbed, crushed, and ups and downs. He left home to join Chen Jitang's army and almost lost his life when he accidentally peeped into his brother's secret. He smuggled himself to Hong Kong and worked hard to make a living, and was involved in the murder of a foreigner. In desperation, he fled to Guangzhou and joined Hongmen on the introduction of his younger brother... In his bet with fate, Lu Beicai always seemed to have the luck to turn danger into safety. When he returned to Hong Kong again, he changed his name from North to South, and transformed into the leader of Sun Hsing Society, and was respectfully known as "Master Nan" in the world. But the gambling game of history never plays out according to the rules. The Japanese threat is approaching day by day. The Shanghai Youth Gang is coming, Wang Jingwei's people are coming, the world is in turmoil, and the secret bomb in Nan Ye's heart seems to be detonated at any time...

Yes, but I don't understand some Cantonese very well
It's just that I don't understand some Cantonese very well.
After reading this novel, I think of my days in Shenzhen and my mother-in-law,,,,, hahaha
In fact, being fat or thin is not a problem. The most important thing is that someone likes these shirts and trousers. Some people like long clothes, some people like short pants, some people like flowers and flowers, and some people like simple ones, salted fish and green vegetables. Everyone has their own preferences, right? Compared with before, I am fat now, but if compared with the future, I am thin now. Enjoying the present is the most important thing, isn't it?
