Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Recently, a special correspondent conducted an exclusive interview with Pei Qian, President of Tengda Group.

Tengda Group, now valued at hundreds of billions, operates across various sectors such as gaming, internet services, digital hardware, cultural media, and restaurants, significantly impacting numerous aspects of daily life.

Pei Qian himself is widely regarded as the “World’s Best Boss,” an unparalleled investment genius, and a brilliant game developer. He is known for his effortless leadership style and keen ability to precisely forecast industry trends.

However, during the interview, Pei Qian expressed deep frustration:

“I’m truly not some kind of business genius!”

“My success is entirely due to luck!”

“My initial goal was merely to lose fifty thousand yuan…”

See? This is exactly how a genuine business genius maintains humility and modesty.

Story is about a boy who is trying lose money to get money. But he could not lose the money due to some system bullshitery. Those who love OVERPOWERED MC might love this novel. BUT the novel is too long. Its been 3 days and still I am at chapter 304 and that is only due to me skiping some chapters while I feel too lazy to read..

Still I like it because I love overpowered lucky young MC and even liked the Manhua.

Finished the novel. This novel is quite a refreshing read away from all the other hot blooded novels and I really recommend it. It has a certain charm to it. However it can get somewhat exhausting after sometime of reading but it always makes me come back to it.

Simple novel that you can read to pass your time. My only issue with it is that as a wish fulfilling novel, it doesn't hit the right spots. What I mean by that is the MC lacks badass moments and every time he earns money he has depressing monologues to himself. There should've been more rich president moments if you know what I mean.

It's well written, but predictable. Sure they take a different approach, but it's how to secretly succeed. Which sounds like a great plot idea, but it's the same formula over and over again. Make plan to lose money, follow plan and then have some lucky coincidence that stops him from losing money. Reminds me of shounen manga, but with bad characters. All the side characters are there pretty much so it's not one long monologue which it feels like it is anyways. It was getting so lackluster, it was hard... more>> to suffer through some chapters. It has a good beginning, but after after you get to a certain point, it's hard to read more then a chapter or two at time.

It's a 2.5 for me based on the writing quality, but you have to really really like faceslapping over and over again to suffer through some groups of chapters. I only started reading cause I heard the MC is smart, but it just seems like he's an idiot. <<less

There are parts of this that are definitely repetitive, but for some reason I still find it fun to read. Obviously it requires suspension of disbelief. But I love the different misunderstandings, and the different ways that the MC and his subordinates and other accidentally mess up all the MC's plans, to the great success of the MC's company.

The MC and others always have funny shocked reactions, and the different ways everyone always finds explanations for the MC's intentions are always hilariously Big Brain.

It's an easy story to pick up... more>> and put down, and it updates very quickly. It doesn't require too many brain cells, and there is no annoying romance or harem. It's basically a funny, light-hearted story that always puts me in a good mood when I read it. <<less

I simply love it.

I'm kind of addicted to this novel and every day look it up to see whether there are new chapters - for me this is a first. After catching up to the latest chapter, I usually let novels I read ferment for a while and then binge them in one sitting, but here it's impossible for me. Maybe it's because of cliffhangers, maybe it's because of the comedy or maybe it's because of uniqueness? I have no clue, but whatever it is, it charmed me to the... more>> extent of low-key addiction.

So maybe don't read this novel? I can't tell whether I should recommend it sincerely or warn any potential reader about the risks...

Edit:

I agree with other reviewers about the thoughtful message at the end. It's really nice to read something that actually has some ideas it wants to show to the readers.

A little disclaimer though: although it is very restrained, there are rarely some nationalistic views. If a China-Western conflict is depicted, just look it up. The "Westerners" aren't at fault in some matters. <<less

Please note, my review is based on my perception of this novel up to chapter 129, at which point I switching to reading it more intermittently / casually. My main complaint is that this novel is incredibly repetitive hence the loss of interest.

Looking at the other reviews, other readers still seem to be enjoying the novel even into chapter 1, 000. So I'm not sure if it gets better or if other reviewers are just masochists.

Anyway this novel is similar to 'I really am a superstar' where the MC is... more>> transported into a similar parallel world with a different arts, entertainment and business scene.

the MC has a system which helps him to run a business and rewards him slightly for earning money, and rewards him greatly for losing it.

These perverse incentives inspire MC to do whatever it takes to invest in loss making projects, the MC will have a zany idea to try and lose money, his employees try to scrutinise and rationalise his behavior, his project for some reason or another will go on to be a smashing hit, MC's company makes a tonne of money, but the MC himself earns very little personally due to system rules. So the MC decides to double down, in an attempt to lose it once more. Basically Rinse and repeat this, ad infitum.

On other notes; the translation quality is excellent, the Supporting characters are interesting enough and MC has a pretty decent personality and dark sense of humour.

In summary this is a decent 4 star novel, only reason it loses a star is due to its repetitive nature. Overall I recommend you give it a go. <<less

Treat this novel as your side dish at the most.

I tried to read it until the most recent update of the english TL. But, I don't know how to describe it. The only thing that you will got in this novel is a good laugh when you see the MC failed and failed again to spent his money. Other than that? Nothing. No character development (At least for now), no romance, no in-depth business strategy, no slice of life, every character have no soul.

When you read for example cultivation novel,... more>> you will got. Action, adventure, a bit of romance, harem. And so on. But, the only thing that you will got in this novel is comedy.

I am not recommend it for those who have so much brain cell that will got irritated because MC's line of thought. However, if you bored of looking at cultivation novel with thousand chapter left to read of any kind of similar novel. Then this will be your pit stop. It will recharge a good amount of laugh so you can continue your long journey to finish those novel. <<less

From what I read so far. The MC is a ret*rded greedy bastard, he was impact a lowly salary man before he go back in time and became a idiot ret*rded being that even a fool would know how to lose money.

His 1st failure is the hook that made me read this sh*t and the way he just shrug and throw the thought of making his business grow and let it be so that one day the company would lose profit but no he stick with the dumbest idea and... more>> continued his greed to lose profit that turn high profit.

He was a reasonable man but his decision and idea is ret*rded. Did he not know that if you make so much high end games it backfire and loss too much profit causing the game to be another cash sucking games for pay to win players.

If the story is not just seeing his failure to burn money and somehow get the profit loss then this novel is unique. You need to balance the uniqueness of a story if the story is just that then its boring like hell I'll read a 1000 chapster that MC always fail because of plot. We need to see that he can somehow loss profit and change his life to spend some of his hard working money then back to square one of gaining profits through sheer luck. <<less

surprisingly good and funny. The only problem I see is that except for the MC everyone else is his die-hard fans or to be fans and everyone wants to help the MC succeed and always beautify the Mc's intentions and deeds. Usually long comedic creations need a variety of characters but for now most characters seems similar to me and I don't see any rivals, anti-fans or sane characters who can see things as they are without beautifying glasses. This might not actually be a problem in a short term... more>> but I don't know about later.

edit: I started to get bored and skip chapters <<less
