Quality Period Dramas for a Male Audience
Era fiction that sticks close to history and has intelligent characters. Do not recommend simplistic wish-fulfillment stories, I cannot read them.

Are Rural Educated Youth Sent Only to the North, Not the South?
Please don't recommend female-oriented romance novels. I don't read those, thanks. Are there any stories about people sent to the countryside in southern China? Most period novels seem to be set in the northeast. Are there any set in the southwest or south?

Xu Chaoqing picked up and took away the folders one by one. After Chen Zheng finished checking the accounts, he asked, "Boss, we've made so much money, how much bonus will we get for the New Year?" "One hundred thousand yuan per person," Chen Zheng said casually, glancing at the folder without looking up. "Only 100,000? Isn't that supposed to be dividends?"
Chen Zheng transmigrates back to his time as a sent-down youth, only to find his wife has already run off to Beijing. He takes his daughter to Shenzhen, then to Hong Kong to make money. He makes movies, opens factories, and becomes a tycoon. Chapter 55 sees him return to Shanghai, a triumphant homecoming. It's estimated he'll invest even more in the future, eventually becoming a major investor.
This is one of the few novels I'm willing to reread. I almost missed it because of its low rating; it's really well-written. I think the biggest problem with this book is that the protagonist was too generous to his subordinates or collaborators before he had made a fortune. The initial startup team shamelessly followed the protagonist to Hong Kong, displaying a terrible attitude.
The protagonist, without any cheat codes, is reborn, loves his country, becomes a nanny, and has a cute little burden along the way. He has no ambition. This was the first book that made me feel that the ex-wife's decision to separate was the right thing to do, which was infuriating. This book doesn't have any particularly exciting or thrilling moments, and the anticipation is too low. Perhaps the author is better suited to writing pastoral stories.
It's a comfortable watch; the protagonist is decisive and doesn't drag things out or cause any messy situations. I think the protagonist should get to know the children and help them form a stable and united family.
It's alright, the writing style is good, but the structure and pacing need improvement.
A high-quality rebirth novel; the story is mature, profound, and full of experience.
The male protagonist is a person with very clear logical thinking. He can plan what he wants and knows what he pursues. He is relatively calm and rational, and can be considered a conscientious businessman. When he makes money in his business, he is willing to share it with those around him so that everyone can prosper together. He is a person who controls money but is not controlled by money. This is a rare and excellent book that everyone should read.
It's very good, fast-paced, and doesn't have any unnecessary dialogue.
This book is a gem among rebirth-themed books.
