Reborn in 49: Heading to Hong Kong to Become a Tycoon

Based on the protagonist's displayed personality, I find it hard to believe he's as decisive and ruthless as described in the synopsis. He starts by killing decisively, which is great, but later, because he wants to stay in Beijing or Hong Kong, he becomes indecisive and procrastinates, with a lot of internal monologues. I can only say that even the gangsters robbing the jewelry store were more decisive than the protagonist.

The worst thing about reading is mindless fantasy detached from the context. The emotions in the writing are a bit too unrestrained. People in dangerous environments can't be so carefree as to act without restraint; this doesn't align with the human psychological defense mechanisms against unfamiliar environments.

If we do fewer nonsensical things for the country and its people, things will be better.

The idea that a protagonist with a cheat ability can level up is bound to ruin the novel. A historical fiction story with a cheat ability that levels up? It turns into a fantasy novel. If someone's power is so overwhelming, what kind of business fiction is that? The cheat ability has completely stolen the show's theme.

Everywhere he goes, there are flaws; it's hardly a satisfying read. He starts off wanting to stay in Beijing long-term, but a farm boy who doesn't even own land claims to have a primary school education, openly indulging in lavish meals and buying all sorts of necessities—where does he get the money? It's impossible for him to stand up to scrutiny!

Having read over forty chapters, the protagonist's character is flawed; he's like a mad dog, his actions are erratic and chaotic. Didn't he have a plan for building his fortune before going to Hong Kong? What does he even want? His purpose remains a mystery.

What's the point of the first 30-odd chapters? Just start with the first chapter, get to Hong Kong, and explain it in a few sentences! It's a waste of time.

The protagonist lacks any modern mindset; modern people avoid trouble, while the protagonist is the complete opposite—he pulls off one heist, leaving behind a mess, then pulls another, leaving a loose end. Is the author deliberately rehashing old material because they have nothing better to write? I can't relate to this at all.

Many authors these days add a bunch of side stories for no reason, thinking everyone wants to read that? Look at how others handle it. Having a cat or dog as a pet is better than picking up a baby out of nowhere. It turns into a babysitting novel. This formula on Qidian is getting tiresome.

The background setting is fine, but the writing is terrible, riddled with plot holes. 1. The original owner's mother left a considerable sum of money, which the original owner's father didn't tell the original owner and grandparents, neglecting them for years until they froze and starved to death.
