[Period setting + genius scholar + System + no rebirth]
In 1970, at the Jiangjiagou Brigade of the Hongxing Commune in Qinchuang Province, six-year-old Jiang Yanyi sits on a field ridge drawing a perspective diagram of a tractor. The whole village thinks he’s an idiot. After a high fever, a lazy, sharp-tongued voice appears in his head: the System, “Xiao She.” There are no quests and no rewards, only endless mockery: “Useless. You can’t even do this, and you’re already slacking off?”
From farmland and water conservancy work on the production team to the 1977 college entrance exam, from Peking University’s physics labs to a Stanford doctorate, from Zhongguancun in the 1980s to starting a business after returning to China in the 1990s, Xiao She uses nothing but its mouth to force a country boy who only wanted his father to fix tractors so he could save a little effort into becoming a Nobel laureate.
It has a strong sense of the times, is interesting, and has smooth logic. It is worth reading with 5 stars.
