After reading various book reviews, including others such as Tieba and a certain cloud reader gathering place, I felt a lot after reading it, so I will talk about this book.
I know very well that this may not be a pleasant book. Just like I told my editor, people always have to be willful a few times. You can't let a person who is still dreaming recognize reality all at once. I want to write something What I like, no matter what the best outcome.
I am alive. I would like to thank all readers for not letting me give up on my dream and for giving me the motivation to continue pursuing it.
Even if I die, I have nothing to regret, because I will try my best to live my life according to my own ideas, not how others see me.
The story of this book takes place in an era when the world is full of changes. The conflict between the old and new forces and more things that have not been revealed in this book are destined to make this world a disorderly and chaotic world. In terms of the empire, Maggs tried his best to reverse the power of capital that had been released from the prison by his own hands. He was a very pure person who only wanted to do what he wanted to do and clean up the increasingly uncontrollable mess. . So for him, the stability of the empire and the sustainable and healthy development in the future are everything to him.
The capitalists are completely opposite to Magus. In the past, they were small traders of noble fish and meat, but in the new era created by Magus, money has changed from a symbol to a weapon, which can pierce through all. The weapon of the human heart. Money can buy everything they need, whether it is the dignity, status, decency and power they did not have in the past, or the enjoyment and satisfaction they had.
This is bound to make them focus on their pursuit of their own careers, fight with each other, and ignore some things that are simply insignificant to them.
A group of people in a rural area fought and killed many people. Will Mags pay attention? No, because the people who died would not affect the empire's rule over that place at all. He was more concerned about which officials the capitalists had corrupted and how many people they allowed to become representatives of their interests.
Capitalists will not pay attention to these things. Instead of focusing on things that do not affect them, it is better to think about how to make more money and how to turn money into power.
This is a contradictory era. People shout for freedom and justice, but this is precisely what they do not have.
In such an era, nothing is strange, because this is the strange charm of this era.
Some people say that the protagonist is always assassinating and attacking big shots. This is not surprising, because the protagonist has nothing in his hand except a knife. The power given to him by others can be withdrawn at any time and at any time. For example, if he was dismissed as the mayor of Otis City, it was not his, but was given to him by others, so others can take it away. He himself has never really had power. All he has is a group of people who dare to fight hard and have something to fight for.
And, all the assassinations, all the fighting, I think I tried to rationalize it as much as possible. Many readers may wonder how this could happen, so let us read the history books and see if a group of capitalists held high the banner of revolution and even dared to kill the emperor. Is it impossible and brainless? yy? A group of mafia engaged in illegal trade and colluding with big conglomerates dare to kill the president. Isn’t it as unreasonable as a third-rate novel
Just in September, a mayor somewhere in Asia was shot dead during an event for some reason. Oh my God, this is the 21st century and a civilized society. How could this happen? This bizarre thing happens. The whole world has already implemented the rule of law system. Are you bragging, author? However, this is the reality. The specific reasons will not be detailed here. In fact, it is just a few types. Those who are interested can check it out by themselves.
Similarly, the group of people who live next door to the World Police have killed dozens of mayors, hundreds of government officials at all levels, and even big shots at the top for some reason.
Oh my gosh, this is happening again in a civilized society in the 21st century. Why aren't those people being tried? Why don't people in those countries mobilize the whole country to catch these people
you ask me
Who do I ask
Who knows why something like this happens in what we consider a civilized society
So compared to what Du Lin did, I think Du Lin was too careful. He even dared to kill the president and assassinated hundreds of government officials at all levels, including ministers. What did Du Lin do
It is normal to see some incomprehensible parts when reading a book, because some young readers have not really considered the era, social form and political background of the story in the book, and have not carefully read every word. To understand the economic structure, humanities and history of that world, it’s not your fault, it’s my fault. It’s my fault that I can’t write the kind of article that can read ten lines at a glance, read three thousand words in ten seconds, and still let you know roughly what I wrote.
However, I am very grateful to the readers who like this book and can read it.
Does the chef cook to give customers a better experience
No, it’s to make money!
Does the tailor's exquisite craftsmanship sew exquisite clothes to make the guests look decent
No, it’s to make money!
Are those skilled women who enthusiastically display their craftsmanship so that customers can see their study and hard work to make customers happy
No, it's to make money.
So am I writing this book to make money
No, really not, I am here for my ideal!
This is the integrity and pursuit of a niche story writer!
I write out what is in my heart and let everyone like to read it, which is a joy for me!
Spiritual food is always easier to satisfy than material food, because all material things will eventually be destroyed, but the spirit will last forever!
Thank you to all readers for their understanding and love for me and this book. I also want to thank those readers who put down the book halfway and sprayed me everywhere. It was you who made me... Do you think I would say that it made me stronger inside
No, you are too naive. These people will only make me thicker-skinned. The scoldings are like floating clouds on me. Come on, come on, drink a glass of water and continue. We have a long way to go, don’t be in a hurry!
