Reborn in 1955: I Steal Opportunities in Hong Kong

If there's space, go to the Padmanaba Swami Temple in Kerala, India, to find the treasure. Pry up all six basements. 😁

At this pace of writing novels, you'll end up with nothing but establishing your own country. You won't be able to protect your wealth or your family, and every time new high technology comes out, it gets robbed. People are used to robbing, so why would they buy it? Only by having your own country and nuclear weapons can you live in peace. Don't expect the North to protect you.

It's ridiculous. Things weren't that easy back then. British rule was at its strongest, the Chinese had a low social status, and, more importantly, the Chinese community was internally divided and disunited. Locals, Chaoshan people, people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Shanghai all banded together.

Why write "Li Ka-shing"? Just write "Li Cucumber" and we'll all know who it is.

I doubt whether you are Han Chinese. The Deer and the Cauldron is a blatant glorification of the Qing Dynasty. Jin Yong was born into a Manchu noble family, so he praised Emperor Kangxi. If I had been born in that era, I would have prevented Jin Yong from publishing a single novel.

This is too rushed. Starting so many companies at age 8? How will the story continue? Where would so many people buy newspapers in 1955? 250,000 Copies, no less! 15 Or 16 would be fine, but 8 is too jarring. This novel is unwriteable. Buying so much land, starting so many companies, investing in Y. K. Pao—the cash flow is enormous. After that, they can do anything, just throw money at it. Hong Kong's one-man show is meaningless.

In 1955, people could still be clearing out post-war materials. Some of these things weren't even cleared out by the 1980s. There's a book next door about starting a business.

By 1955, they still had Old Master Huo as a backer, needed a spatial ability, and needed plagiarists... One of them was already incredibly powerful, and you're trying to include them all?

Chapter Three: Deadly Poison. "Ah Ma" is neither a Cantonese nor a Hong Kong term; please don't include dialects, it's jarring.

It would be better to set the timeline around the 1970s and 80s. It's difficult to grasp the timeline so early, since prices were low and Hong Kong Island was undeveloped at that time. Most of it was wasteland, and it was very chaotic with gangs vying for territory and many corrupt police officers. Even the police were afraid of the gang bosses.
