Starting Out in Hong Kong

I follow this every day, but I still have to say something: too much personal bias is unnecessary. Don't assume you've seen through everything; you haven't. That's just your personal opinion. You can't negate everyone's opinions because of yours. The country has plenty of talent, and there are reasons why things are done this way.

The protagonist seems so great. He tells his friends what investments he makes and even suggests they follow him. Every time he invests in shares, he takes 35% of the shares from the other person. It's hilarious. Did he ever consider the founders?

In Alibaba's first round of financing, Goldman Sachs and several other firms invested $5 million for a 40% stake. If I were to offer $10 million for 30% of Alibaba's shares at that time, how would Jack Ma choose? Some people say that investing in a company requires not only money but also resources. I think that sufficient money is just as effective. Besides, does a company really need that many resources in its early stages?

The protagonist's only advantage is knowing the future and all the information, yet he reveals it all to someone he just met. This is absurd. If he encounters someone with foresight, how can he survive? Wouldn't it be better to keep quiet and make a fortune? Also, your writing style—the beginning is dialogue followed by names—it's so difficult to read.

The protagonist starts out as a selfless and devoted person, surrounded by an aura of trust that everyone can trust, especially since the first five chapters are enough to make you want to drop the book.

What prompted you to keep reading this book? And why are there so many people saying it's a good book? There are so many illogical parts. Remember! This is a business article, specifically about venture capital. The venture capital industry is rife with underhanded dealings and fierce competition!

"Meiguo" (美国), "Beacon Country" (北京国), what the heck? You don't need to avoid these country names when writing urban business novels. You can just write them directly in the early stages, right? If you cross the line, won't your editor notify you? These country names sound so awkward (✪▽✪).

I'm speechless. I know the author wanted to depict the transformation and struggles of ordinary people, but after a few chapters, all I saw was a brainless pretentious jerk constantly talking about the future and national affairs. This isn't the kind of ordinary person I know.

In this kind of business novel, the protagonist should at least seem like a responsible boss. This guy acts like a lunatic, revealing future plans to everyone he meets, and the author even defends it by saying it's okay. Even if it's okay, it's not right to tell just any random stranger this. I even saw the protagonist swearing he'll never lie again 😴.

I finished reading it in a day and a half and felt it was very well written. It vividly portrays a reborn young man with limited abilities but full of advantages. It depicts his multifaceted character, including fear, ruthlessness, and naivety, very well. Of course, if a reborn person isn't a scumbag, then what kind of egg is he? However, the overall asset disposal method needs improvement.
