I'm very picky about rebirth novels, and this is the best I've read out of all of them.
The author exaggerated the portrayal of Hong Kong businessmen and the Kuomintang.
Each one of them seemed like a reincarnation of Zhuge Liang or Zhang Liang, skilled in political intrigue and strategy. If they truly possessed even a fraction of the abilities described in your book, Hong Kong and the Kuomintang wouldn't have been routed like dead dogs before Japan. Hong Kong fell in 18 days, and the Kuomintang suffered a crushing defeat, with 600,000 men fleeing in disarray.
Some interesting facts about this book: The Lo Man-kam family, which rose to prominence in the 1920s, was one of the four major families in Hong Kong during the British colonial era. The others were the Ho Kai-tung family, the Ko Ho-ning family, and the Lee Hysan family (some say the Fu Lao-yung family). Luo Wenjin is highly likely the prototype of Lu Wenjin in the book;
The book about the Guhuoniao was inspired by this author's great hero.
I don't recommend reading this if you haven't read it before; you'll run out of books to read after finishing it and won't be able to find anything else to read.
The early and middle parts were well-written, but the final plot became scattered and disjointed. It would have been better if it had ended with the trip to England.
It started strong but ended weakly.
The first third was quite captivating, but perhaps, as the author himself said, the further he went, the less he could handle the subject matter and content.
Holy crap?! It's out?!
The plot of this book is so annoying to read! It keeps jumping from one plot to another halfway through, with several plots weaving together and overlapping.
