This is boring. Two or three women have appeared in ten chapters already. I don't like novels that involve ambiguous relationships.
May this book flop soon. It completely lacks the feel of the previous one. Aside from the editorial department that's all about swindling money and sex, ugly women are ignored, and everyone else is portrayed as a scheming, manipulative woman. Even the protagonist is a scoundrel. And this is only twenty chapters in, with someone already throwing themselves at him. The rampant plagiarism is a major flaw in any rebirth novel. Old Jin, you're finished.
It suffers from the same problem as the previous book: over two hundred chapters in just two months, the pacing is terrible. Also, there's too much unnecessary dialogue with supporting characters, taking up large sections and just padding the word count.
This is the first time I've ever felt so heartbroken reading a novel. Don't take the songs lightly, okay? Five hundred yuan a song! 😥😥 Even though I know that was a lot of money in that era, it still hurts to see it!
It's written like garbage; I've never read such a ridiculous novel before.
The beginning was alright, and I got into it, but after about ten chapters, it started to become toxic and disgusting. Was this on purpose?
The protagonist's career is all over the place, it's completely nonsensical!
Is the author planning to stay in Zhuanghe again? In 1991, you could say you were afraid to make money from the Russians, but in 1992, you could have gone to Shanghai to buy subscription certificates, right? Why bother with a lighter business and a run-down arcade? Aren't you tired? Can't you live a more relaxed life now that you've been reborn?

The following views are purely personal opinions, and I apologize in advance if I have said anything incorrect. I noticed the recommendation votes, and if I remember correctly, the ranking seems to have dropped slightly. From your last book to this new one, your overall writing style has been unhurried and slow, almost like writing a diary.
Regardless of what others say, for me, this is a healing novel. For a middle-aged person like me who constantly has suicidal thoughts, this is the best spiritual nourishment to sustain my life...
