A surrealist novel that is infinitely close to the reality of life.
Reporter Xia Jie meets his first girlfriend Xiao Nian, who has suffered from her husband's bullying and abuse, and the two run away.
Soon, Xiao Nian's husband Gu Quan was diagnosed with cancer, and the kind-hearted and traditional Xiao Nian returned to her husband. However, Gu Quan eventually died from taking fake medicine.
Xia Jie wanted to expose the shady story of counterfeit drugs through the media, but the counterfeit drug unit bribed the media and blocked the report. Frustrated, Xia Jie left the newspaper and joined the real estate industry, and was involved in the real estate trap again. Real estate owners and corrupt government officials colluded with each other to embezzle state assets and pay and accept bribes on a large scale.
Officialdom, academia, media, real estate, capital markets... What is hidden behind the bustling news events? Is it crazy greed or rational profit-seeking? Is it beautiful love or lustful desire? Is it the origin of hidden rules or the cocooning of order?
Reader comments
I am the author Yehu, and this book was written before "Year of the Wolf and Tiger". It is my debut novel. Please criticize more, thank you all.
This book has about 800 words that are exactly the same as "The Year of the Wolf and the Tiger". You won't be able to find it without reading carefully. Who was the first discoverer? [Laugh]
Although it is a bit dark, it reflects the real current situation of society. If there were more like-minded characters, it would give people hope and add color to the work. The author's other work "The Year of the Tiger and the Wolf" is also a good work that reflects the current social situation and is worth reading.
I feel that Xiao Nian in this book has the same background as Li Xiaoju (Li Mei) in Year of the Tiger and Wolf.
The first husbands all have violent characteristics, and the second husbands (lover) are all senior government officials (provincial level) who are more than ten or twenty years older than themselves. They also have admiration for the protagonist but are eager to escape from love. They are also Bai Yueguang, who the protagonist cannot love (and once was).
2024.11.4 I finished reading the book. The characters in Yehu's book are vividly depicted. The microcosm of society and all kinds of world are all in this book, which is thought-provoking.
The plot of this book is very attractive, and it feels like things happening around you, very real. I especially hate that real estate boss, he's so bad! The author's writing style is very simple and his writing style is good. He describes the characters and things very clearly. I think this book is worth reading.
Put it this way. I bought both physical books. Just for remembrance. A novice reader. Highly recommended by Xiaobai.
Documentary novels are definitely not mainstream in today's online literary circle, and they don't seem to be that exciting, but this is a literary work. From the Huang Yi series to this book, Tomato has really given me so many surprises
As a media practitioner, I have experienced the entire process from the establishment of a provincial metropolitan newspaper to its imminent collapse. The author reminded me of many past events, and it suddenly came to me like a dream. . . . .
The author knows this well.
Coming from "The Age of Wolves and Tigers", the author's writing style is very good and the content is in-depth. It is worth reading.
