A very good book, even more captivating than *The Age of Orange and Red*. The plot is intricate and complex, unfolding in three distinct waves! However, the book contains too much negative emotion; at least up to 70% of the content, the descriptions of most government departments and officials are rather bleak. It leaves one with a sense of unease!
A very good story, a very good book. The only downside is that it's too captivating and can easily interfere with rest. The principal's books are always a guarantee of quality; I don't understand why anyone would give it a low score.
I've read quite a few of the principal's books, but personally, I think "The Common Man" and "Orange Red" are the best. Both left me wanting more; the plots are thrilling and exciting, profoundly exposing the darkness of officialdom and the evil of human nature. Ultimately, justice will prevail over evil, and righteousness resides in the hearts of the people.
It's highly readable and captivating; thumbs up!
The writing is superb, with not a single dull moment. The character portrayals are incredibly profound, realistic, and believable. The author dares to incorporate current events into the story, demonstrating both boldness and meticulousness—truly admirable. This is a rare novel for which I'm willing to write a review. Highly recommended, I'd give it 99 points, leaving one point for further improvement.
This book describes many dark secrets unknown to ordinary people and the intrigue and power struggles at all levels. Although it is somewhat exaggerated, it is still self-consistent and is a rare and excellent book!
I've only read up to chapter 51 so far, and this is one of the few truly good books I've read. The plot is full of twists and turns, the protagonist's circumstances rise and fall dramatically, and many events are unexpected yet, upon closer examination, perfectly logical.
This is truly a gripping book. Even though I've had retinal detachment surgery, I couldn't put it down and read it all night long, even though my eyes hurt. The beginning was exceptionally well-written, captivating the reader with its thrilling story. However, I felt the ending wasn't as good as the beginning, feeling somewhat rushed.
I became a fan of this author after reading "Agent Yi Leng" and wanted to read all his works. So far, I've read most of his books, and my favorites are "Peerless Hero," "The Orange Era," and this one, "The Commoner's Counterattack." For us ordinary people with nothing, the depiction of the darkness of officialdom in these books is a shock I've never experienced before.
As a principal, the work of the red era is indeed a good choice for fans of online novels!!!! Highly recommended 👍👍👍, worth a look, 🙂😏 [Understood] [Working on draft] Let's read it again!
