Author's self-comment: I wrote this book just to pay tribute to those painful and burning days. In 2008, I was driving at night in Beijing, and in 2009, I was eating noodles in a rented house. I wrote all the unseemly running around and gritted persistence into "Ten Years in Beijing". This is not a cool article based on thin air, but the real footprints of an ordinary young man from "survival" to "taking root". I hope that everyone who works hard for life can see their own reflection in the book. Thank you readers for your companionship and follow-up updates. Each of your comments is motivation for me to continue writing.
This is the most immersive book for me since "Alive". The most touching thing is the word "real". Without the blessing of a golden finger, the protagonist came to Beijing from rural Gansu and made his first fortune by tinkering with night lights. He also had to deal with clients, socialize, and deal with the unspoken rules of the industry. He stumbled every step of the way. The love line is not bloody, Cheng Hong's support and the two people's mutual support are very warm; the nobles help each other without any effort, Li Ping's trust and Professor Cheng's appreciation all hide the warmth of life. The historical background (Olympic Games, Wenchuan Earthquake) is naturally integrated, giving the history of Beidiao's struggle a richer feel. Reading it is like listening to the story of the struggle told by the elders, simple and powerful.
Finished reading it in one sitting. It is indeed a rare masterpiece among tomatoes. After reading it, I couldn't stop at all. There is no floating excitement, no cheating cheats, and the most touching thing is that the "difficulties" of Beidiao are written in a hot and real way. I also started from the bottom, and the experiences of the protagonist are very life-like. These details are not meant to be miserable, but are memories that everyone who has worked hard in a big city can relate to - you will see his past self in him, and those moments when he gritted his teeth and refused to admit defeat. The author does not rush for the protagonist to make a counterattack and get rich, but slowly unfolds his growth: from ignorance and recklessness to calmness and transparency, from being alone to meeting companions, every step is solid and difficult. The rhythm of the story is relaxed and moderate, with both the trivialities of life and the twists and turns of fate. People can't help but want to follow the protagonist and see how many detours this poor boy has to take in order to earn his own place in this huge city. If you have ever left your hometown for your dreams, if you are still struggling with the trivialities of life, you might as well read this book. It's not about giving you chicken soup, but it's telling you: Those nights that you stayed up until the early hours of the morning, those days when you were beaten to death by reality, will eventually become the hardest armor on your body, accompanying you to where you want to go. Looking forward to the follow-up plot, come on
