(The early chapters lean toward bleak realism, followed by a comeback and hard-won growth in the middle and later chapters. This is not a pure wish-fulfillment story!! The tags were generated by the System after a book test and can't be changed by the author. There are no romantic pairings in this story, and the supporting characters don't date either.)
What is a demographic dividend? It's a period when, no matter how exhausting or absurd the job, if you refuse to do it, plenty of other people will, and wages keep falling.
Luckily, Shi Weiyin unexpectedly binds to a System that pays her. She starts businesses to create jobs, hires large numbers of employees, offers them generous benefits, and refuses to make them work 996.
You might say that when ordinary people have money, they only think about enjoying a comfortable life. They don't think of starting businesses or opening companies. At most, they'd buy pretty clothes and tip male streamers.
But Shi Weiyin believes that from the day she bound herself to the System, she stopped being an ordinary person.
She knows what it's like to get caught in the rain, so she wants to hold an umbrella for others.
Especially now, as society stands on the verge of change.
Employee: “If Weiyin had never been born, all eternity would be one long night!”
Very good, highly recommended. The female lead is a saintly figure, her parents, both in their fifties, are struggling to make ends meet, claiming they have powerful backers. Even when she's evicted for not being able to pay rent, she still finds time to care for her son, giving him money for baby formula. Her mother leaves him at home with his grandfather while she goes out to work.
The idea is great, but it's too depressing and stifling. I can't stand it; it makes me feel suffocated just looking at it. Keep it up!
I finished reading it a while ago, but I suddenly remembered this book and wanted to give my opinion. Some readers complained that the female lead helped her younger brother and parents, but I don't know whose opinion is right. The author's writing leans towards realism. In reality, severing parental ties to evade filial obligations is ineffective.
The system's role in this book diminishes towards the end, but it still has opportunities to be showcased, which is quite good. The writing isn't too disjointed; it's acceptable. However, regarding their interpersonal relationships, it's less about resentment and more about their struggles. They seem to be in a lot of pain. The author could have been harsher in dealing with their parents.
The beginning was too frustrating, but it gets better after that. Perhaps the "suppressive then uplifting" trope isn't quite to Tomato's taste; some readers might have been driven away by the beginning. 😂
I haven't read it yet, I just added it to my bookshelf after reading the synopsis. I just read a little bit, and it's really great. The typical examples, the clear process descriptions, and the subtle yet insightful portrayal of reality are truly excellent. It's really great! 👍🏻 I really like it. Good articles are those that resonate with people's lives and meet their needs. [Learned something!] 👍
I've read 59 chapters so far. It feels very realistic, not just a mindless wish-fulfillment story. The female lead is human; she struggles with her exploitative parents before ultimately breaking free. That's how normal people are—it's hard to sever family ties, and everyone wants to give their parents another chance, but also, after enough disappointment, they finally have the courage to leave.
I've written too much about the suffering of other people.
This is so well written!! It hits the nail on the head, and some of the discussions are quite insightful. Every time I read it, I wonder how it even passed censorship 😂. It's excellent, please update more!
Positive review, only request: don't become a bloodsucker.
