    These three books all feature female protagonists conducting scientific research and bringing glory to their country. The first one was the first serialized novel I ever followed; it's incredibly good, set in the early 1960s. The female protagonist is sharp-tongued and has a unique perspective. She transmigrates from a post-apocalyptic world, initially lacking strong faith in China and somewhat extreme due to the injustices her parents suffered. However, she later brings glory to her country in the Korean War—a truly strong female protagonist story; the romance can be omitted. There's one minor flaw in the early chapters (which I didn't particularly like, but it doesn't detract from the overall quality). The second book is about modern scientific research serving the country; the female protagonist transmigrates to interstellar space and back, slapping other countries in the face. The third book is set in the 1970s, nearing the reform and opening-up period, and is also very good. The protagonist's "golden finger" (advantages/advantages) isn't as overwhelming as the first one, but it's grounded and the female protagonist's dedication to scientific research for her country is worth checking out!
