Reborn in Shanghai

Chu He transmigrates to Shanghai in a time of chaos. Using his wits, he seizes one opportunity after another and gradually builds his own power, becoming the king of Shanghai’s underworld. In the eyes of outsiders, he is an opportunistic traitor, but behind the scenes he escorts the most important intelligence for the Communist Party and helps the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics carry out one dangerous mission after another. He is a romantic, but no womanizer. He values loyalty, keeps his word, and always holds his country and people close to his heart. This is a book that deserves to be read carefully: the early plot lays the groundwork for what comes later. The stats may be a little disappointing, but I still think the story is worth reading. It isn’t a mindless power fantasy, and it won’t be very long. I estimate it will wrap up at around 200,000 words.
