Reborn in 1997: Rising from a Coal Tycoon's Son

The synopsis is a complete lie. It portrays a wealthy second-generation coal mine owner starting his own business, but once you go in, you find out that the first generation squandered all the family fortune, leaving only 20,000 yuan for the second generation to start.

If you want to read about Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Gulnazar, and Dilraba Dilmurat, go somewhere else. There are plenty of books like that on Qidian. I just wanted to quietly read an entertainment rebirth novel, but instead, a bunch of people are chattering away. It's so annoying!

Why don't you use Pancake Man to stop Marvel movies?

The author lacks knowledge of commodity prices and basic coal mining principles. Coal mine owners made their fortunes after the government abolished coal price guidance and stopped overall price control in 2003. You, on the other hand, earned over ten million before 1997? Do you know what that means?

Uh, that's pretty naive. They want to implement a screenwriter-centric system, saying that the later success of Korean films is due to this. Guess why those writing about Chinese entertainment don't mention this so-called screenwriter-centric system? My classmate happens to work in lighting and knows a bit about it, so let me analyze it for you.

I didn't understand. The timeline of the protagonist's rebirth, after his father went bankrupt, doesn't evoke the image of coal mine owners as wealthy, nouveau riche. Furthermore, the timeline for the protagonist's father doesn't quite add up. Losing tens of millions in the entertainment industry before 1997, and being scammed—how did he manage that? He must be incredibly stupid!

What kind of rubbish is this author writing? Even if it's a rebirth-themed wish-fulfillment novel, at least make sense of the timeline and plot! It's all disjointed and haphazard. The Soviet Union didn't collapse until December 1991, and you're reborn in 1997? Your father, a private coal mine owner in Yuncheng, was swindled out of over ten million yuan because of his artistic pursuits?

Xu Jinglei, Yuan Quan, Zhang Ziyi—you've dated all of these, but you're only average-looking in the entertainment industry. Zhang Ziyi isn't even as pretty as some internet celebrities.

There are big coal mines and coal bosses everywhere in Shanxi, but Yuncheng has none, and you still write about filming blind wells in Yuncheng? I'm speechless.

What kind of nonsense is this? It's all jumbled up and disjointed, and yet it claims to represent Chinese culture and film, going global and becoming internationally recognized. Hong Kong and Taiwan are convinced of its legitimacy. Back in 1998, it even had a 500 million investment project. Just because it's from a coal mine background, why would anyone in the domestic film industry dare to mess with it? It's utterly illogical and speechless.
