This isn’t a traditional Hong Kong showbiz story. There are no dinging System alerts and no gang wars or blood feuds. The book contains a little everyday Cantonese, but it doesn’t affect the main plot. The pacing is slow and grounded in reality, so proceed with caution if that’s not your thing. The protagonist is ruthlessly self-interested and decisive. If you’re a bleeding heart, this isn’t for you! 47.5kReads8.6Score4.1kShelves

    Reader note

    "I Dominate the World by Exchanging Cutting-Edge Technology" is a successful work that combines exhilarating gameplay with a grand scale, thanks to its clear character development, groundbreaking cutting-edge technology, and fast-paced plot. The protagonist, Lu Yun, embarks on a thrilling journey from a down-on-his-luck reborn individual to a technological overlord. The entire story is high-energy and engaging, satisfying readers' expectations for a satisfying read while providing a positive core through the theme of technological advancement. It's a truly exhilarating read and a benchmark in its genre. The most striking aspect of this novel is its perfect combination of the advantages of rebirth and a cutting-edge technology system, creating a unique and exhilarating sense of triumph. Lu Yun is reborn in 2014, after his college entrance exams, carrying memories and regrets from ten years later. He is then bound to a cutting-edge technology system focused on technological research, unlocking advanced technologies such as physique enhancement injections, basic AI, and quantum computers in his starting package, immediately setting him ahead of the times. The system isn't designed for mindless cheating; instead, it's based on the core logic of "earning experience through R&D and sales of technological products." Experience can be used to upgrade the system and exchange for more advanced cutting-edge technologies. This "effort equals reward" setting makes the protagonist's rise logical and well-founded. Every technology exchange and every product development brings tangible improvements in strength. From making small games to earning his first pot of gold, to developing smart speakers to build a brand, and then to expanding into the mobile phone industry and planning a technological empire, the pace of technological upgrades is progressive, providing a dense yet seamless sense of exhilaration. The protagonist, Lu Yun, breaks away from the flatness of traditional wish-fulfillment novel protagonists, making him vivid and three-dimensional, increasingly likable with each reading. Before his rebirth, he was an ordinary person who failed his college entrance exams and lived an unremarkable life, working various low-level jobs, experiencing the hardships of life, and deeply understanding the struggles of his parents and the bonds of brotherhood. This past gives him a clear goal after his rebirth—to make money, fulfill his filial duties, lead his brothers to success, and strengthen the nation through technology. He possesses both the youthful vigor and a maturity and foresight beyond his years: facing a score of 421 on the college entrance exam, he didn't dwell on retaking it, but instead used his newfound advantage to quickly seize opportunities; after earning his first fortune, he immediately helped his parents leave their arduous street vending life and planned for their future; he always remembered his brother Chang Lei, who had helped him in his time of need, and promised to develop his business together with him; in his business strategy, he precisely grasped opportunities, from registering the company and building the team to selecting contract manufacturers and controlling product quality, every step was taken steadily and surely. He is neither arrogant nor impatient, ambitious but not greedy, capable but not ostentatious, possessing both the warmth of an ordinary person and the boldness of a technology leader. Such a protagonist is highly relatable, making readers willingly follow in his footsteps and witness the rise of a technological empire. The novel's pacing is superb, tight and fast-paced throughout, high-energy from the very beginning, with each subsequent chapter building upon the last, making it impossible to put down once you start reading. Within the first few chapters, the story lays the groundwork for the protagonist's rebirth, system binding, and unlocking of the newbie gift pack. The protagonist then uses the AI ​​Ahri to create "Sheep and the Sheep," quickly earning millions in his first pot of gold and completing his initial capital accumulation. He immediately sets up his company, registering three companies under the Qingyun Group, clearly defining their roles in technology research and development, product sales, and investment. He recruits elites from major companies to build a core team, developing a cutting-edge smart speaker and laying the foundation for a technological empire. Interspersed throughout are scenes of celebrating his father's birthday, humiliating snobbish relatives, and selling game copyrights to expand his brand awareness, enriching the storyline and making the protagonist more well-rounded. He then capitalizes on this momentum, investing in the development of high-end mobile phones and expanding into artificial intelligence and smart home fields, steadily progressing towards his goal of "global domination." The novel avoids unnecessary melodramatic plots; all events revolve around "technological rise," with wealth accumulation, technological research and development, team building, and business maneuvering intricately linked, maintaining a fast but coherent pace that keeps readers engaged and eager for more. Furthermore, the novel's detailed characterization and grand scale set it apart from other fast-paced, action-packed novels. In terms of details, the author meticulously portrays the historical context of 2014, from the game version of League of Legends and the popularity of Apple iPhones to the market environment where housing prices had not yet skyrocketed and the industry gap where smart speakers had not yet emerged. All of this is realistic, making each of the protagonist's plans seem logical and natural. The descriptions of business operations are also highly professional, from company registration and team building to product development, OEM selection, and online sales channel layout. Every step is logically clear, making the process of tech entrepreneurship realistic and believable. In terms of scope, the novel doesn't stop at the protagonist's personal wealth accumulation but deeply integrates personal growth with national technological development. The protagonist, Lu Yun, initially focuses on "making money to fulfill his filial duties," gradually establishes the goal of "using cutting-edge technology to make our motherland stand at the top of the world and let foreigners taste the bitterness of technological blockade." Every technological product he develops is aimed at breaking foreign technological monopolies and creating a Chinese technological brand. This sense of national responsibility elevates the story's theme, allowing readers to experience the thrill of the story while also feeling a strong sense of national pride. The novel's supporting characters are also exceptionally well-developed, each vivid and distinctive, becoming crucial allies on the protagonist's technological journey. Chang Lei, a loyal and devoted brother, always stands by the protagonist's side, serving as his strongest support; Han Xia, the capable company general manager, is attracted by the protagonist's vision and the company's prospects after leaving a large company, diligently building the team and overseeing product development, becoming the protagonist's right-hand man; there are also the responsible financial manager Zhou Zhuojun, HR manager Zhang Ze, and a group of passionate and hardworking R&D personnel, each with their own strengths and responsibilities, collectively driving the development of Qingyun Technology. Even the protagonist's parents, simple, kind, hardworking, and frugal, add warmth to the protagonist's struggles and become a driving force for his continued progress.

    This story features a protagonist reborn in 1985, starting by separating from his awful family and avoiding domestic drama. He awakens a system, but it's not exaggerated. He starts as a scrap collector in a small town, progresses to the county, and then the city, step by step. Although there's a system, it's quite realistic and detailed. Highly recommended!
