Synopsis

In the late 1970s, the small fishing village of Nanguo was transformed into a special zone. A three-meter-high barbed wire fence divides Shenzhen into the inner and outer customs. Machines roar outside the customs and there are many high-rise buildings inside the customs. "Urban immigrants" from all over the world have dreams of gold rush. They hold the border guard station and go in and out of the customs, weaving dreams. After the millennium, the barbed wire fences have corroded, checkpoints have been revoked, the visible gates have collapsed, and the invisible gates have towered into the sky. The "new generation of urban immigrants" go in and out of glamorous office buildings during the day, but lie in dirty urban villages at night, accepting the cruel waves for the sake of their unchanging dream of gold mining. Over the decades, people continue to leave, and more people continue to arrive. Youth passes from generation to generation, and this city seems to have always been young.

Reader comments

The last update was a month ago. The update is so unstable. Why do you still push it out?

The author's writing is really good and the characters are lifelike. But for the group portrait you wrote, if you pull it out separately, for example, your brother will be the main character, and you will publish the article in urban areas, the results should be good. The actual flow of the section is too small. But there is a problem with your update.

I've heard of "inside and outside the pass", but which pass is this? There is also the temporary residence permit. In the past, I applied for it because of necessity, so why do I apply for it now and what is the use?

Let me ask the author a question. In my childhood impression, there was still a checkpoint at Caopu. At that time, Metro Line 3 could only go to Caopu Station. It was probably around 2011 or 2012, especially when you can see the train track next to it from the subway. This was taken during the Universiade on National Day this year

The writing is quite good, but the updates are too slow. I feel like it won't be enough to read your book until half a year.

The writing is very contemporary. I just received some rewards. The author should keep writing. Originally I was also writing a book set in 1985, but after seeing your writing style, I didn't want to write it anymore. If you write a chronicle and set the main line, you will definitely be able to write a high-quality article in urban areas.

Yes, there are very few books about Shenzhen.
I also found a book that was just released two days ago. The writing is not bad, so let's read the back. Author, why don't you tell the main story in detail? I wonder if any book friends have any articles about Shenzhen in the 1980s and 1990s?

Your new book has been in storage for too long, almost a month from the 23rd of last month to this month. Also frequently interrupted😰

Well written. The update is just too slow. Qidian readers are so ignorant that no one subscribes to such a good book.
