    Reader note

    A book promotion advertisement from a middle-aged troll: For the convenience of understanding, this cross-border book can be regarded as "The End of Ten Days" which combines hard science fiction, strong strategy, and high viewpoints. However, the group of protagonists is not normal, and the reason why readers laugh has nothing to do with the author. The logic is rigorous, and the knowledge contained in the 17 subjects is supported by orthodox theories, and is not a generalization under the guise of science. The story is exquisite and interlocking, with a lot of foreshadowing and pitfalls that must be filled in. It is not a scattered plot that is forcibly pieced together to prove one's own point of view. I don't want to rely on this book to turn myself around and change my destiny. The questionable title cannot let me know more interesting souls.

    1. What is this book about? The protagonist Shen Xing is reborn in 1999 with only 347 yuan in his pocket. Others are reborn: buy Bitcoin, buy a house, and become the son of the richest man. He is different. He writes manuscripts in the basement and waits for an opportunity. Wait for the dot-com bubble to burst and short the Nasdaq. Wait for A-shares to reach 998 points, then buy the bottom with full positions. Waiting for the mobile Internet to become popular, we will make letters, payments, mobile phones, and chips. Starting from 347 yuan, in 17 years, he was worth 200 billion. It's not cheating, it's waiting + carrying. 2. Top 5 Cool Points Cool Point 1: Escape from the top at 5178 points. Before the stock market crash in 2015, everyone was greedy. Shen Xing said: "Clear the positions." All 100 billion funds were withdrawn. Three days later, thousands of shares fell to their limit. Someone asked him how he knew, and he said: "I didn't see it, I saw it. It was the same in 2007." I read this chapter five times. Cool point 2: Samsung rejected it three times, and then knelt down to beg for cooperation. Xiao Zhao went to Samsung to talk about screen cooperation. The first time he waited for 3 hours, he said, "I won't sell to small customers." The second time I waited 4 hours and "come back another day". The third time they were not even allowed in. Shen Xing slapped the table: "Samsung will regret it. Not today, not tomorrow, but soon." Later, Li Fuzhen appeared, and Samsung took the initiative to deliver. It makes my scalp numb. Cool point 3: Wandou surpassed 360. Wandou took two years to go from obscurity to No. 1 In the industry. Chen Sisi put the report on Shen Xing's desk and said, "We are first." Shen Xing looked at it for a long time and only said one word: "Okay." But Chen Sisi knew that this one word contained his full approval. It's not that Wandou is great, it's that Xingxin is great. Convenience is the moat. Cool point 4: Black Myth Investment Shen Xing invested in game science. After watching the demo for ten minutes, he said, "Do it. If you don't have enough money, invest again. If you don't have enough time, wait. It's a good game, worth the wait." Feng Ji's hands were shaking. Later, an additional investment of 50 million was made, bringing the total to 70 million. Don't push for progress, don't say you're in a hurry, just say "I can afford to wait." This is the real investor. Cool point 5: The starting point of 347 yuan. In 1999, in the basement, the first royalties were 347 yuan. I bought a box of instant noodles, a stack of manuscript paper, and a few pens, and kept the rest. At that time, he didn't know that the 347 yuan was the starting point for 200 billion. My eyes turned red when I saw this. 3. Character portraits: Not just the protagonist Niu Shen Xing: Never be in a hurry, always say "wait". He has three online identities (Lao Chen, Black Master, and Chen Nunu), and a hidden identity of Hunter, who has written songs for Taylor Swift. Su Wanqing: Editor-in-chief of Xingxin, I have been waiting for him for 16 years. Every time he said "work overtime", she said "the glutinous rice balls are in the pot". Not sensational, but best to cry. Li Fuzhen: Princess of Sanxing. "You are the first Chinese person that I admire." She helped him promote cooperation, and he said, "No matter what happens, I will be there." Evenly matched among adults. Zhang Weijun: The investment manager who has been with Shen Xing for 16 years. Every time Shen Xing said "clear the warehouse", he did it. His hands were shaking but he didn't ask why. Xiao Zhao: The person in charge of marketing, I was rejected three times when I went to Samsung, so I gritted my teeth and endured it. When he signed the contract later, the executive who had rejected him lowered his head and did not dare to look at him. Feng Ji: Founder of Game Science. He has been working on Mythology for three years without making a penny. Shen Xing invested 70 million and only said, "Don't rush, don't save costs, don't make do." 4. What is the difference between this book and other business war texts? Difference 1: There is a real timeline. From 1999 to 2016, every investment node is real history. Internet bubble, 998 points, 6124 points, 1664 points, 5178 points, circuit breaker, Hong Kong defense war. It's not made up, it really happened. Difference 2: It's not mindless. Shen Xing is not omniscient and omnipotent. He will also be rejected, he will wait for a long time, and he will slam the table and get angry. But he has one thing - wait. Wait for the Internet bubble to burst, wait for A-shares to bottom out, and wait for Samsung to regret it. When you wait, you win. Difference 3: There are details. When writing a mobile phone launch conference, do not talk about parameters, but tell the story of a user buying a mobile phone for his father. When writing about product design, add two millimeters to the arc of the border, make the sandblasting a little finer, and make the packaging box substantial. I can feel that the author really understands. Difference 4: Lots of golden quotes "Waiting is the best investment." "Enough. But not enough." "Convenience is the moat." "Users are not stupid, whoever can use it can use it." "Only when you make things yourself are you not afraid of being taken away." "It's not a god, it's an ordinary person. An ordinary person who waited a little longer than others." I copied a whole book. 5. Who is it suitable for? ✅ Those who want to make money but don't know where to start ✅ Those who like to read business wars, investments, and counterattacks ✅ Those who are fed up with mindless and cool articles and want to read some cool articles with brains ✅ Those who are interested in industries such as the Internet, mobile phones, and chips ✅ Those who like to copy golden sentences and screenshots to post on Moments ❌ Those who don't like to read commercial content may not be able to get it ❌ Those who only want to watch love stories are not suitable (there is a love line, but it is not the main line) 6. My 3 favorite moments 1. Shen Xing slapped the table: A man who had never gotten angry in 16 years slapped the table and said, "Samsung will regret it." I got goosebumps at that moment. 2. Su Wanqing's glutinous rice balls: Every time Shen Xing works overtime, she cooks glutinous rice balls. Don't say "I miss you", don't say "come back soon", just say "the glutinous rice balls are in the pot". This kind of restrained emotion is a hundred times easier to cry than crying. 3. End of Chapter 600: "Outside the window, the first moon of 2017 hangs in the sky, very bright. That is the New Year's moon, that is the awake moon, that is the moon waiting for him to go home. And he is still awake." Seeing this, I put down the book and took a moment to relax. 7. Where to watch? How many words? Currently there are 327,000 words, updated daily. The first part with 600 chapters has been completed and the second part is in progress. You can find it by searching "Awakening Stone". One final word: This book is not the kind of book that you will forget once you read it. After reading it, you will remember "waiting is the best investment", you will remember "enough but not enough", and you will remember that bowl of glutinous rice balls. Anyway, I remember it. ---
