In a Terrible Reading Slump: I Drop 9.8-Rated Books After Ten Chapters and 9.7-Rated Ones After Five
I'm so out of books to read, but I'm incredibly picky. For "Ten Thousand People Are Browsing", I made it only thirty chapters before dropping it. I used to read "Dragon King" past chapter 400, but now I dropped "Slay the Gods" after just twenty chapters.
Reborn, Internet, Starting a Business, and Feel-Good Fiction
Looking for books similar to "Reborn: From the Internet to the World's Richest Man". I want feel-good power fantasies, not depressing stories, and they should be over a million words.
Looking for Masterpieces, but Not Anything on the Recommendation Rankings
Don't recommend anything where the protagonist's surname is Ye or Ling, where the protagonist has a cute little sister, or where the protagonist is a bleeding-heart do-gooder. In short, no stupid novels. The darker and more ruthless, the better! Kill, kill, kill!!!
Please Recommend Books You’ve Reread a Bunch of Times (Completed), Thank You
The Pinnacle of Tech Novels on Tomato Novel
I'm looking for books similar to After the Red Night.
Which Book Is Going to Be a Huge Hit This Year?
Looking for books similar to "Fighting to Build a Path to the Heavens". I always look for books that combine knowledge and entertainment. After reading Xian Shi's "The Limits of the Human Body", I became even more convinced that the two should go hand in hand. I'm currently reading the author's new book, "Fighting to Build a Path to the Heavens". This book will...

Don't look at the ratings! Don't look at the ratings! Don't look at the ratings! I'll say it three times because it's important!!! A high rating doesn't necessarily mean a good book, and a good book doesn't necessarily have a high rating. Share all the books you think are good, preferably ones over a million words or completed at over a million words.

Technology Novels! No National Heroes! No Military Industry!

Tech Power Fantasy with Smart Characters: Reborn to Build a Startup in Phones, the Internet, and Chips
I'd like to read something like Reborn in 1989: Building China's Tech Empire. A satisfying tech novel with an intelligent protagonist. Reborn, the protagonist starts a business and develops mobile phones, the internet, chips, and other cutting-edge technologies.
Reborn Between 2000 and 2010
Don't give me amateurish novels. I'm picky. I want stories about pursuing the heroine, or the heroine pursuing the hero. They shouldn't be too short, preferably over a million words. The main focus should be pursuing the heroine, with making money as a side plot.

The plot is well-structured, the business warfare is fast-paced, and the protagonist constantly strives to survive and surpass powerful competitors... The story is exciting...! This business novel has been turned into a gaming novel! Only two chapters a day and you can't even come up with some branching storylines? A major blunder... The beginnings were really well written!
It's pretty good! The main character is somewhat underdeveloped, with a relatively weak presence; the focus is more on the development of their company. There are face-slapping moments, but they're not mindless; they're more subtle and understated. The main plot progresses very quickly and at a comfortable pace, without adding a bunch of side stories to slow things down.
I've watched it all. Overall, it was pretty good, but some parts felt familiar. 😏😏😏 I've finished reading it all. It's pretty good, but there aren't enough episodes. Could you please update more?
It's not bad, but the AI can still sense it, haha, help! I've recently discovered that AI-written wish-fulfillment novels are really powerful, but the AI is only recognized by its directness 😄😄 It's hilarious every time I see them. There's been too much AI in Tomato lately, and AI novels like to cover everything, but this one doesn't seem to have that much.
Although the plot is rather old-fashioned—just the most common company-starting story—the satisfying moments are really well-designed. I've never seen a story with a unique e-sports path before. But please don't focus solely on games; include some other apps besides TikTok! 😘😘😘 The last few chapters about CrossFire have been a bit boring.
The same thing happens in real life. TikTok has become a global phenomenon, haha.
It was so good, I haven't enjoyed watching anything this much in a long time. But I have a small suggestion: I think they could write about a "primordial spirit" (元神). Back in the day, everyone knew the phrase "Primordial Spirit Activation," and Meituan (Meituan) had to be included. Their food delivery app was awesome! AI apps definitely need something like Doubao (豆包).
Must-see Hong Kong films: *Looking Back in Anger*, *The Greed of Man*, *The Greed of Man*, *The Good, the Bad and the Ugly*, *The Greed of Man*, *At the Threshold of an Era*, *Cold Blood Warm Heart*, *A Moment of Romance*—all are films you won't regret watching. *The Greed of Man* and *The Good, the Bad and the Ugly* made me cry 🤦 And the song "Suiyuan" keeps popping into my head again.
Come, author, repeat after me my solemn oath: From this day forward, I will never stop updating. I will not watch dramas, travel, or get sick. I will not play games or write filler articles. I will be strictly self-disciplined, cherish time like gold, be indomitable, strive hard, pursue excellence, forge brilliance, find joy in writing, be tempered into steel, and live up to my readers, my youth…
5 Stars. I can't quite put my finger on what's so great about it, but it's just so enjoyable to watch.
