Reborn in the 1980s: I Led My Hometown to Prosperity

The latest chapter suggests buying a large truck. Back then, rural roads were terrible, and large trucks were prone to serious wear and tear and accidents. Tractors were the best choice—durable, easy to operate, and perfect for hauling timber. Don't think I'm joking; back then, a large truck was probably a large-scale Liberation truck.

This doesn't make sense. Didn't they ban weapons of truth before? How could a village of over a thousand people not have a few weapons of truth? Why are they all using melee weapons to guard their money? Bring out weapons of truth!

Suddenly becoming a millionaire, with motorcycles, cooperatives, building houses, getting married, and so on. Other characters face numerous misfortunes and hardships, but you've had the complete opposite, your success is too overwhelming. A spring needs to be compressed and then released to have elasticity; an article shouldn't be too flat, it needs ups and downs.

Even companies with hundreds of billions in revenue wouldn't have a single transaction reaching tens of billions. Yours casually mentioning billions or tens of billions is simply outrageous. The total export transaction volume of the Canton Fair in 25 years was only 25 billion US dollars, and in 1990, the total transaction volume for the entire year was only 250 million US dollars. Yet, here, anyone can easily make hundreds of millions in transactions.

He can earn tens of billions of foreign exchange for the country every year, and the foreign exchange he earns is higher than the whole country combined. This kind of person has no influence at all. People in any small place can be easily manipulated.

They kept repeating the same things over and over again.

Giving the research institute 10% of its profits each time amounts to billions. With that money, they'd be better off recruiting and training talent. A single mobile phone involves thousands of technologies, each requiring skilled personnel. If each person received 10%, would there still be any profit? Current mobile phone profit margins are less than 10%. A permanent 10% dividend will only increase costs later. It's easy to make money now, but it will ultimately drag the entire company down.

If rebirth cannot change certain historical events, then why be reborn at all?

The author's ambitions were too high; they wanted to create an ensemble cast but failed to handle character development well. As a result, after dozens of chapters, some characters are no longer memorable. It's like a chef trying to cook ten dishes simultaneously, forgetting salt in one, burning another, and adding sugar instead of salt in yet another. Ultimately, the whole meal is edible, but not delicious.

The more they write, the further they stray from reality. Their last two books insist on writing about common prosperity. In the last one, they mentioned some kind of fungus, immediately throwing around figures in the hundreds of billions 😅. How are readers supposed to relate to that? I just can't stand reading these two books anymore 🤦🏻‍♂️
