Hong Kong novels have gone from adaptations of film and television works to the current trend of creating a new era in Xiangjiang. The formulas are more or less the same, but many of them are exceptionally well written.

The story begins with the transmigrator Hai Zong writing to his mother, "Don't fight for the family property or take any money. You'll regret it if you don't take anything. What's the point of coming home to meet me?"
Brothers, I'd like to apply to become a contributor to this book's operations team. I'm still a little short on contribution points, so please give me your support!
Wow, Tiantian Daily's annual net profit is 12 million, while that company only has a market value of 30 million. You merge Tiantian into it, and then you still have to invest another 12 million, giving you a 49% stake. Wow, what a waste of my money!

Sometimes it's okay to cooperate with Li; there's no need to target him. Given the historical context at the time, Hong Kong families were all pretty much the same, and some were even more outrageous than Li. It's just that Li's vision, methods, and abilities were too strong, and his reputation was much greater than others. As the saying goes, "the nail that sticks out gets hammered down."
Novels these days love to target Li Ka-shing. The bloody, dark side of Hong Kong's four major families is no less than Li Ka-shing's, yet the other three seem to be living a life of luxury. Kidnappings are first targeted at the Li family; Hong Kong's high property prices are blamed on the Li family's exploitation; the mainland keeps a close eye on the Li family to prevent them from fleeing; even…
I feel that Cherie Chung, Michelle Reis, and Rosamund Kwan are not in the same category in terms of looks.
It's laughable that someone who accomplished nothing in their past life is starting over and wants to do everything. What do you know about running a newspaper? You think buying it means you're going to reform it?
The protagonist doesn't want any inheritance after dividing the family property and even makes threats. Is he insane?
The beginning describes a rebirth, with the investment aspect being a precognition from a previous life. Then, the protagonist suffers amnesia in certain areas, including the entertainment industry, where they are completely unaware of their past. I'm getting confused about whether the main focus is on rebirth or a dream.

The crooked-mouthed dragon king style of writing. It's just not as good as those who pretend to be cool. The author, for one, got really into writing it.
