Synopsis

Shen Huaian was once a small-town exam obsessive, then became one of the country’s top researchers. At thirty, a truck that ran a red light killed him on the spot.

Just before he died, he bound himself to the “007 Merit System” and learned that he was actually an “early-death cannon fodder” in a wish-fulfillment novel. He was too clever and had derailed the plot, so the author behind the scenes had erased him with a single keystroke.

Given another chance, he had only one bargaining chip left: merit.

Across three thousand small worlds, scumbags were everywhere:

In the 1950s, a wastrel squandered his family fortune.

In the 1960s, a lazy freeloader living off his parents drove his whole family to the brink.

In the 1970s, an educated youth returned to the city and abandoned his wife and children.

In the 1980s, a man who married into wealth lived off his wife while bleeding her dry.

In the 1990s, an overseas student groveled before foreign brands and sold out his country for glory…

Shen Huaian would collect every last blood debt they owed.

He protects his own, builds his career, and, along the way, sparks technological progress in every world:

During a famine, he grows super rice and feeds a billion people.

In the spring of reform, he makes chips by hand and breaks the technological blockade.

In the night of the information boom, he launches a homegrown operating system and makes the world bow.

…

Reading Guide

The research big shot has an absurdly powerful golden finger, with sound logic and satisfying comeuppance.

The small worlds vary in length. Some include a couple, while others focus on the protagonist alone, depending on the plot.

All the worlds are fictional. Please don’t scrutinize the details. Any resemblance is purely due to the common nature of scumbags.

I read it from beginning to end, and the author's writing got better and better. You can start reading from the later, more complete world. Personally, I prefer a no-romance storyline, so the romance felt a bit abrupt, but that's just my personal preference. Overall, it's very well written!! Support the author!!!

Like AI, not written by a real person. OK, confirmed, it is indeed AI, it's very confusing.

The male protagonist possesses the ability to make his words come true; he can grant his wishes with a single harsh remark 🤭🤭 (Loud cricket chirping: Forced patriotism puts tasks aside. Every time it's about devoting oneself to patriotism to the point of death. It was okay at first, but it's always like this. I'm getting tired of it... Sigh~) Either focus on your career and only take on career-related tasks, avoiding emotional tasks related to family or loved ones.

This doesn't feel like a novel, it feels more like reading an essay 🤦 Anyway, it's weird, but also very idealistic.

I found it enjoyable; I absolutely love this kind of subject matter 🥰 The comments mainly focused on minor issues, but overall it's good, with clear and logical language. I'm giving it my support!

If I were transported to another era and had a system, I would definitely become a scientist. Not for any particular reason, but simply to fulfill my childhood dream and my teenage desire to serve my country.
