Li Muchen slowly opened his eyes and found himself in a strange yet familiar room. The walls were covered with yellowed newspapers, the wooden window frames were somewhat rotten, and outside the window came the noisy conversations of neighbors and the crisp ringing of bicycle bells.
He rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Wasn't this the same bungalow he'd lived in as a child? He sat up abruptly and looked at the calendar on the table. "April 23, 1988" was clearly printed on it.
Li Muchen pinched himself hard. The intense pain made him sure that he was back, back to that era full of opportunities and challenges.
He clearly remembered that in his previous life, he was mediocre, missed too many opportunities, and ultimately spent his ordinary life in regret. But in this life, he vowed to rewrite his fate.
Li Muchen clearly remembered his past life, where he had suffered repeated setbacks in life and ultimately achieved nothing. However, this time, fate seemed to have given him a great opportunity.
He was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a mysterious USB flash drive embedded in his mind, which not only stored a huge amount of future business information, but also rich cultural and music materials.
Not only that, he felt his body was full of strength, his muscles were firm and he was full of energy, as if he could easily handle any challenge.
"Could this be the material I used when writing my novel?" Li Muchen couldn't help but wonder. In his previous life, he had been writing novels for four or five years, but his average subscriptions had never even exceeded 1,000.
However, because of this, he accumulated a large amount of writing materials, which not only covered a lot of business information, but also included rich cultural and life information. This undoubtedly made his future business journey smoother after his return.
His thoughts drifted back to the arduous writing days of his past life. In the dimly lit rental apartment, only the old computer screen emitted a faint glow. Li Muchen sat at his desk, his eyes bloodshot, his fingers tapping away at the keyboard, yet he couldn't find the door to success.
He often racked his brains for days, staying up late into the night, to come up with a compelling plot. But despite his dedication, readers' feedback remained lukewarm, with the few comments in the comment section mostly filled with criticism and accusations.
He once confidently released a new work, thinking it would usher in a new era. However, reality dealt him a heavy blow: subscriptions were pitifully low, and the number of recommended votes was even smaller. Looking at those meager numbers, his heart felt as if it had sunk into an ice cellar.
Li Muchen clenched his fists, his eyes filled with determination. He took a deep breath and began to carefully sort out the information in his mind.
He recalled how, in his past life, he had thoroughly researched various business models and success stories in search of writing inspiration. Those fictional plots he had once incorporated into his novels could now become the cornerstone of his rise in reality.
He remembered that once, in order to describe the entrepreneurial journey of an entrepreneur, he consulted a lot of information and learned the importance of market research, product innovation and marketing strategies.
At that time, it was just to make the plot of the novel more rich and realistic. Now I think that this knowledge can be fully applied to actual business operations.
Another time, he conceived a business competition scenario and analyzed the development trends and market saturation of different industries.
These thoughts now emerged clearly in his mind, as if they were preparations for his business career in this life.
Li Muchen raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a confident smile: "In this life, I will use all these accumulations to build my own business empire and let everyone pay attention to it."
Li Muchen was born in 1970, a somewhat turbulent time. He was born with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, with clear facial contours, a high nose bridge and thin lips that were slightly pursed with a hint of determination, making him look quite handsome.
In 1984, fate struck him mercilessly. At the age of 14, he lost both his parents. From then on, life was shrouded in darkness. Fortunately, his uncle, aunt, and other relatives extended a helping hand and provided him with financial support, allowing him to feel the warmth of family love amidst his hardship.
In order to reduce the burden on his relatives, the sensible boy started doing odd jobs early on, including delivering newspapers, washing piles of dishes in restaurants, and selling small items on the streets.
In this difficult growth process, his childhood sweetheart Su Yao has always been by his side. Su Yao has a standard oval face, skin as white as porcelain, eyes as bright as stars, and two shallow dimples when she smiles, which makes her look cute and charming.
The innocent girl fell in love with Li Muchen at first sight. However, Li Muchen was busy dealing with the difficulties of life and did not realize Su Yao's deep affection.
Time flies. Shortly before he returned, he was shocked to hear that Su Yao was about to hold a wedding. This news was like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard. He realized that the girl who had been silently accompanying him had become disheartened and chose someone else because of the long wait without seeing any hope.
At that moment, he was filled with remorse and made up his mind deep in his heart that if he had the chance to do it again, he would bravely respond to Su Yao's feelings, stay with her hand in hand, and never let her down again.
