Any Books About Heavy Industry or Advanced Technology? No Beginner-level Stories, Please.
Don’t come recommending school stories that use science and technology just to show off. Don’t recommend anything without technical specs and comparisons. (Even if the System’s data doesn’t match reality, it’s fine as long as it makes sense within the novel.)
Any Books About Starting a Company and Quietly Advancing Technology? Nothing Too Over-the-Top
Industrial Fiction About Developing Real Industries in the Modern Era
I like novels about heavy industry and cutting-edge technology! No more stuff about phones and the like, I'm sick of it.
Novels Rated 9.9 That You Can Read Eight Times
Looking for stories like "Thirty Years Through the Sixties". Any genre.
Looking for Stories About Industrial Tycoons, Not Internet Finance and Other Get-Rich-Quick Schemes
Stories with a Brilliant Scientist Protagonist, 500+ Chapters
Any Industrial Novels? No Mindless or Brain-Dead Stories

Any Novels Where Knowledge Is Power?
The protagonist is highly intelligent and gains knowledge through books, research, and other means to improve their strength.
Tech Fiction, But No More Controlled Nuclear Fusion, I’m Getting Sick of It
Looking for books similar to "I'm a Level-Two Civilization, So Having a Two-Dimensional Foil Is Perfectly Reasonable".
Looking for Stories About Academic Prodigies, Math, Physics, and Solving Century-old Problems, Possibly with a System
A top-student story. A System is fine, but the protagonist shouldn’t rely on it too much. Keep things grounded in reality: solve century-old problems, publish papers in academic journals, make an international impact, and help the country tackle scientific and technological challenges.
Looking for Novels About Industry, Smartphones, Chips, and Cars
Industrial Fiction
Industrial fiction.
Please Recommend Novels About Running Things: Businesses, Organizations, or Factions!
I'm looking for books like "I've Got a Career Profile". I don't want vague, all-encompassing business management, or stories where the protagonist sticks their fingers in everything. If it's about a company, focus on one company and one industry! Don't have them manage everything! Let them either run one faction or just focus on that faction.
A Protagonist Who Starts a Business and Has a Head for Business, No Spending Spree Power Fantasy
Starting a business from scratch. Transmigration isn't necessary.
A Male Lead Who's a Scientist, Research Prodigy, or Physics Genius: A Top Student!
Scientific Research With No Scheming or Face-Slapping
A highly intelligent but socially clueless protagonist would work too. Their achievements don’t necessarily have to become known to the public, but they should be based on established knowledge, not made up out of nowhere.
Looking for Tech Fiction About Real-World Industries, Machinery, and Electronics
No mindless stories. The author should know at least a little and do some research, instead of just making things up. Please don’t recommend stupid stories that start with things like photolithography machines and artificial intelligence 😥.
Have Top-Student Novels Fallen Out of Favor? Recommend Some to Me
Build a Tech Company and Help China Stand Up to the Great Powers
I want to read something like The Eve of the College Entrance Exam: Ushering in the Fifth Revolution in Physics.
Developing Technology From Scratch, With Theoretical Derivations, Warships, and Mechs
Looking for books like The Starship Captain with a Blade. I want in-depth explanations of the fundamentals behind technologies like intelligent AI computing and analysis, computational restructuring, warp travel, and vacuum zero-point energy engines.

It's a pretty good industrial article. The rating is really low. It's not very exciting, but it has the feeling of a hard march up the technological tree. Industry is not achieved overnight. From scientific research to prototypes to production capacity ramping, supply chain crises are a bottleneck in every link. This kind of oppression is more heart-wrenching than any villain. It's not easy. The profits are much lower than those of real estate and financial clubs. It's so hard to see these people who are doing business making tens of thousands of dollars. The writing style is dry and there are not many emotional words. It seems very restrained, but the details are detailed. It is not easy for the company to grow. If you like heavy industry farming, feel free to read it.
Very good! It's not the kind of article where one chapter's net worth, production capacity, and technology are world-leading. It's written with great feeling and develops slowly, but it's very satisfying. It's just too little, I can't bear to finish reading it 😂
The writing is very good, the logic is reasonable, there are cheats, but it is not against the sky, it is refreshing, but a lot of it is the progress and growth of the protagonist. I deliberately reduce the daily life part and focus on describing the research and development experience, giving people the impression that R&D personnel are so busy and have no daily life. They are either doing research or on the way to research. Industrial development is not about reaching the sky in one step, but rather one step at a time and accumulation over time.
The content is very good, and the entry point of material science, cultured diamonds, is also quite interesting. Goldfinger is a laboratory, not a big trick, and not the kind of black technology. The protagonist is also experimenting step by step, without a messy harem, focusing on his career. Thumbs up for all these👍 But, the author likes literary youths😂 He can be lyrical at every turn, and use metaphors to describe scenery. This is actually not a big problem. But for me, who is sensitive, there is always a touch of sadness in the writing style of literary youth. I guess I read too much youth pain literature when I was a child. This resulted in a touch of sadness on one side and a sense of excitement of various technological breakthroughs on the other. The writing style was a bit awkward. Especially when listening to a book, I just want to express my feelings and pass them quickly. As a result, I don't listen to books anymore. If I were to read them directly, I would skip the lyrics and it wouldn't affect my reading mood😫
The writing is pretty good, but I feel like there was a bit of a deduction when the government bought shares and gave employees shares at the beginning. After fighting that part, it was pretty good, but it was a bit too peaceful and I didn't feel any emotional ups and downs. Also, there is no need to hold shares in all companies. Only by investing in some industries or finding more suppliers to compete can progress be made.
It's very interesting. The author's writing style is very strong. This book has always been in my fish pond. The only problem with this book is that it is too professional and there are no pictures, such as non-metal heating, wafer cutters, robots, ALD, etc... Can you attach pictures? Some of them I can search, some I can't.
The protagonist is a scientific research talent, and there is no classic poisonous point to promote the plot. The full text is full of scientific research, and you can feel the knowledge flowing through the brain without leaving any trace. Regardless of whether you have real scientific research knowledge, it is enough for passers-by😄
A very soothing plot, there is AI but it's harmless
It's good to read, but it's hard to agree with others. I started to get impatient when I saw the 700-800,000 words, and I started skipping to read it. If I tie it, I won't chase it. In fact, it's four stars, but the score is a bit low. I think this book has an eight-star level, so I would like to give it a higher rating to encourage you.
The plot is pretty good, except that the AI always ends each chapter with a short sentence like "It thinks it's beautiful, but it's embarrassing to normal people."
