Reborn in 1978: You’re Still a Worker, While I’m Already a National Scholar

Reborn in 1978, my only golden finger is knowledge that’s forty years ahead of its time!

My rise begins as an exam candidate everyone laughs at.

College entrance exam failure → the capital’s only perfect-score top student!

20 yuan in starting capital → a [super-advanced radio] → a fortune of 300 yuan!

The neighbor’s rundown courtyard → technology consultant to the neighborhood office → specially appointed engineer at the Red Star Machinery Plant!

Electronic components dismissed as “foreign junk” are magical tools for turning stones into gold in my hands.

The Soviet machine tools written off by veteran experts are, in my eyes, stepping stones to an even greater future.

“Comrade Lin Wei, this is the state’s special allowance. Please accept it!”

“President Lin, we’ve just developed this chip. Please give us some guidance!”

While everyone else struggles to survive amid the waves of change, I’m the one making the waves!

My goal?

First, buy the entire courtyard house!
