When I went to Dongguan in early 2004, I was robbed as soon as I arrived. I lived on the streets with no food and no place to live. I slept in parks and roadside lawns. Very miserable! This book is very immersive! Much the same.
It's very nice. Although it was a little miserable at the beginning, it felt more and more cheating later on. When I started to get to know those gangster brothers again, Xiao Fan just cheated his life.
I went to Dalang, Dongguan in 2004. I had to keep my train ticket when I got off the train. When I checked my temporary residence permit, I could use the train ticket for the first three days.
I haven't read the entire book, so I can't comment on it, but the things mentioned above are indeed very close to reality. It is a good book worth reading. People who have not experienced that era can give some opinions, and those at the bottom who have experienced it will find it realistic.
I have read 3-4 Dongguan-themed novels. I give this one 4 and a half stars. Rounding up from 4 to 5 stars.
Very real, beautiful, and full of memories
Reading this book reminded me of the time in Shatang! Those were really passionate years
It's touching, but the ending is a little rushed.
I would like to give the author a suggestion. Although the creation comes from life, no matter how miserable the ending of the real Dongguan uncle is, the male protagonist in the novel, Uncle Fan, is affectionate and righteous, and cooperates with Baidao to eliminate the dark side. He is a positive character. I hope that Xiao Fan's ending will not be too miserable. Today is the era of cool writing, and traffic is king.
The author Da Bao is also someone who has been there before 😄 and the writing is beautiful!
