What? You have a cousin named Ye Wenjie who works in Northwest China? 😅
Upon reaching chapter 221, there's a plot hole that needs fixing. The protagonist borrowed billions of dollars from Panasonic, and the contract should specify repayment in yen. Otherwise, a few years later, with the yen plummeting, the protagonist would still have to repay in dollars. Since the contract states it's settled in dollars and doesn't specify yen repayment, the protagonist would ultimately have to repay in dollars, resulting in a loss.
The more I watch, the angrier I get. This female lead, surnamed Zhao, is a complete failure; it's infuriating to watch.
Dating a student? That was awesome back in the 80s! Sorry to bother you, goodbye.
Since the protagonist likes Wanqiu so much, why does he ignore her while still flirting with Ye Wenzhu? That's such a jerk!
After reading about 50 chapters, I'd like to offer some feedback. First of all, the author's writing style is excellent, but the romance is written too casually. After all, in an era when even holding hands was illegal, this feels abrupt. While this is supposed to be a lighthearted story that doesn't require logic, the title itself indicates the early 1980s, so it should be based on that era.
The table above
In 1980, 1 US dollar was equivalent to 1.4900 Chinese yuan. In 1981, 1 US dollar was equivalent to 1.7768 Chinese yuan. In 1982, 1 US dollar was equivalent to 1.9249 Chinese yuan. In 1983, 1 US dollar was equivalent to 1.9573 Chinese yuan. In 1984, 1 US dollar was equivalent to 2.2043 Chinese yuan. In 1985, 1 US dollar was equivalent to 2.9366 Chinese yuan.
That's really impressive. If you had bicycles in the 1980s, your family would probably be worth ten thousand yuan.
This book has many highlights, but also many flaws. When you're looking for something to read, it's a balance between enjoyment and pain. There are many plot points that don't fit the era or the main characters' personalities, but if you can stomach it, keep reading…
It seems like since Chen Hansheng, there have been many people playing with fire by having two boats on one side. I don't know how to explain it, but personally, I don't like it.
