In the year 2012 on a parallel version of Earth known as Blue Star, the world is falling behind in technological innovation. The automobile and mobile phone industries are stuck in the past—feature phones still dominate, and domestic car brands can’t compete globally.
Enter Lu Haifeng, a transmigrator who wakes up in the body of a down-on-his-luck businessman in the Great Xia Kingdom. His factory is on the verge of bankruptcy, his investments have failed, and hope seems lost—until the "God-Level Technology Mall" system activates.
With this golden finger, Lu Haifeng can spend profit points to unlock:
Advanced smartphone architecture, chips, OS, and hardware
Next-gen automobile tech including EVs and hybrid systems
Cutting-edge aviation and drone technologies
Breakthrough materials science
After claiming the newbie gift pack, Lu launches his first breakthrough: the Hongmeng S1 smartphone, a sleek flagship device with futuristic specs far surpassing the market’s top brands. Through aggressive innovation and meticulous business strategy, he builds hype via product launches, clever marketing, and leveraging the system’s "accelerator function" to cut research time.
His new company, Hongmeng Technology, quickly grabs the attention of media, tech analysts, and international competitors. Sales skyrocket. Domestic consumers cheer. And rivals scramble to keep up with a product that looks like it dropped in from the future.
As Chapter 10 closes, Lu Haifeng has successfully sparked a mobile phone revolution, proving his vision, product strength, and strategic mind.
But this is just the beginning.
From mobile phones to automobiles, from aviation to future materials—Lu’s goal isn’t just to make money.
He plans to reshape global industry, crush technological hegemony, and build a transnational tech empire.
"In this new life, I won’t just catch up—I’ll leap forward and take the lead."
this is a translation of a MTL Novel by the same name.

Rating: 5 out of 5 — just for the translation. The translation is excellent, and I’d give it a solid five stars for that alone. But if we’re talking about the story itself, my impressions are mixed. I’ve read up to chapter 117. The concept is interesting — a typical Chinese web novel with lots of names that are hard to remember and even harder to pronounce. It starts off engaging but quickly becomes repetitive. The main issue is that everything comes too easily for the protagonist. There’s supposed to be competition with massive corporations, but it lacks real tension — no rivalries, no scandals, no intrigue. It feels like a smooth ride to success without any real obstacles. If you’re into light reads with overpowered, flawless main characters, this might be your thing. Personally, though, I expected a bit more depth and drama. If you find any mistakes in my text, please ignore them — I don’t speak or read English. I read the novel using Google Translate and wrote this review with the help of a translator.
quite good so far chinese stuff throughout but not enough to make it horrible to read and the translation is fantastic so I say its alright so far. keep up the great work

Like it so far, it has the Chinese nationalism stuff like most translations but there isn’t really a good way around that unless the translator rewrites a decent chunk of the novel. Would recommend 👍
I remember there being quite a few reviews about this fic containing rabid chinese nationalism, was I wrong? .........................................
