I remember a book set in the 1970s or 80s. Someone transmigrates to northern Shaanxi, flees to Hong Kong with their younger sister, opens a Jixiang Wonton shop, and plagiarizes books and songs from the West, Hong Kong, and mainland China. To promote the wontons, they even copied that song "Calories." What was the title? Thanks!

A reader asked why the protagonist didn't go back to find his relatives from his past life! The author himself is more inclined to believe that the protagonist had a dream! In addition, the author put in a lot of effort, avoiding the usual tropes of invincibility, showing off, and face-slapping! The author's assistant has a 100-word review assignment.
Seven or eight years ago, this book would have been quite good, but for some reason, I prefer reading light novels now.
The beginning and end of this book could be considered two separate books. The author starts with a good description of the Sino-Vietnamese War, focusing on the experiences of ordinary people during the war. The middle section is about picking up girls and making money along the way, eventually veering towards the establishment of a nation in Indonesia.
The writing is alright, I don't know why the score isn't high. I've only read up to chapter 170. Since the protagonist has already started working on comics, they definitely need to get on the merchandise line; merchandise is where the real money is made. In terms of IP, Pokémon is definitely the most powerful, Transformers is also good, and Gundam is another option. Unfortunately, Gundam has already been released, so they can't steal it, but they could acquire Sunrise.
It's alright, I feel like Hong Kong has become kinder. 😄
The counterattack segment was too short; it would have been even better with some romance in it.
I've already tried it out, so I'm ready to jump in.
The brain-eating gangsters. But be careful, they might double-cross you.
The beginning is original, and it's a captivating tale of the martial arts world. I hope it's completed!
It looks alright now! Keep it up!
