Nine out of ten are brainless wish-fulfillment stories, some even turning the characters into outright monsters. They're all churned out like products on an assembly line. I've written one where everyone gets along, so feel free to share your thoughts. The protagonist transmigrates early and starts at the top.

He may not have a System, but his pocket dimension is powerful, bringing cutting-edge technology from 2024 to this world.

There's one female lead, and later on he'll flee to Hong Kong. 474Reads6.7Score—Shelves
