The Red-Hot Years: Starting Out as a Steel Mill Worker’s Son

Damn! Has the author never read period dramas? How did they write the introduction? How can a street urchin be called a "wan zhu" (a derogatory term for a slacker)? What is a "wan zhu"? A "wan zhu" is someone from a high-ranking family, lacking ambition and drive, living off their parents. To be a "wan zhu," you first need to be from a high-ranking family, not just a small, cramped compound.

Write about things appropriate for the era. Back then, workers and cadres were highly sought after, but you didn't pursue that path and instead started dealing in space crops, haha. Spy work was pointless. Instead of leading people to catch spies, you ended up eyeing their money. In those days, even if you had money, you wouldn't dare to spend it lavishly, especially since you were a street urchin!

So if you don't write about courtyard houses, you can't write novels, right?

Jia Dongxu is the kind of handsome man Zhu Shimao, while Qin Huairu is very well-off. She has a decent junior high school education, owns land, and is good-looking. In modern times, she would be a rich, beautiful, and successful woman. The rural areas around Beijing are not impoverished or remote, so they wouldn't be so ignorant.

It's quite a show. They were still using the first set of RMB banknotes in 1952, and the second set wasn't issued until 1955. The first set was issued in denominations of tens of thousands.

Cats and dogs are highly toxic.

Some people think they know everything after reading a few period novels and then start making random comments about the "wan zhu" (a derogatory term for gangsters). The "wan zhu" are just gang leaders; they have nothing to do with any "compound" (a derogatory term for high-ranking officials or veterans).

I just found out today that Hao Lei has also acted in Category III films.

Isn't it just space? How did you create a system out of it?

Having a younger sister is already a problem; you absolutely mustn't become a doting brother to her later on, as that's bad for everyone. After all, if you spoil her too much, readers will be urging you to have incestuous relationships, and if she gets married, it'll feel like you're giving her away as a daughter.
