[Reborn + Tech Rivalry + Taking the Entertainment World by Storm + Making a Fortune in Finance]
Reborn on December 20, 1999, on the eve of the dot-com crash!
Chen Qiwen, a failed novelist, returns with twenty-six years of memories.
With a photographic-memory golden finger, he can write future masterpieces at the drop of a hat.
Three light novels sweep across Asia, earning him his first ten million overnight!
He times the Nasdaq peak perfectly and shorts the dot-com bubble, sending his wealth through the roof!
He produces hit idol dramas and organizes music competitions,
using an entertainment-industry whirlwind to pave the way for his MP3 player and e-reader hardware!
He invests in chips, develops baseband technology in-house, and acquires a semiconductor company in Taiwan,
using the boom in knockoff phones to build a homegrown Chinese tech empire!
Entertainment, finance, the internet, and hardware technology all surge ahead.
This time, he’ll crush Apple, Qualcomm, and Nokia,
and build a business empire spanning the globe!
Overall it's great, but there's one problem: the main character is almost like a eunuch, and I've listened to over 170 chapters so far. I haven't seen a single female lead yet. Why don't they just pick a few actresses they like during the auditions?
This book offers a fascinating perspective: semiconductor manufacturing in Taiwan, production in mainland China, and headquarters in Hong Kong. Starting with novels, it details how the company hijacked Apple's dominance, gradually building a supply chain electronics empire similar to Samsung. This concept is quite intriguing.
The logic in this light novel is alright, but you can't use real data to reconcile it. In summary, an 8-point rating on the Tomato Prize is fine. Those who give it one or two stars are simply not suited to this type of novel and shouldn't be giving it random ratings. (Except for haters, because their scores shouldn't be counted.)
I've been following this book since the last one. Giving it a 5-star review first! 😘
This book tells the story of the development of the internet industry, especially the mobile phone industry. The events are a mix of fact and fiction, the plot is fast-paced and thought-provoking. As a novel, it vividly portrays the aspiration for national rejuvenation through science and technology. A very good novel.
The novel is alright, but the author is like a buffalo ruminating, constantly regurgitating information. He writes a little more, then goes back to the beginning and starts all over again 😅
This is my third book, and I've been following it closely. Keep up the good work, author! I haven't felt any AI (artificial intelligence/artificiality). I think an 8 out of 10 is more appropriate.
It's the type of book I like.
It's alright, but surprisingly they don't accept women in Hong Kong.
It's pretty good; you can watch it to pass the time. No major flaws, and the pacing is well-controlled. Keep it up!
