My Thoughts on Extraordinary Genius
"Extraordinary Genius" is a web novel that certainly leaves an impression. As I delved into the story, I found myself experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions, from intrigue to frustration. This is a story that seems to have as many staunch supporters as it does detractors, and I can understand both sides.
First Impressions
The initial chapters hooked me with the premise of a reborn protagonist armed with future knowledge, ready to conquer the business world. The allure of a clever MC navigating the 1980s with foresight was undeniably appealing. However, it didn't take long for some of the issues to surface, as many readers have pointed out.
What Works Well
There's a clear consensus that the business management aspects are a strong point. The novel provides a detailed look into the MC's strategies as he amasses wealth and power. I found myself enjoying the descriptions of how he leverages his knowledge of future market trends to his advantage. The journey from humble beginnings to a business magnate is a classic underdog story that many will find satisfying. Some readers also appreciated the glimpse into Chinese economic history and business practices during that era.
Areas of Concern
However, there are several areas where the novel falters. One recurring criticism revolves around the protagonist's character. Some found him to be unlikable, citing instances of dishonesty and questionable morals. The portrayal of relationships also seems to be a sticking point, with some feeling they lack depth and emotional resonance.
Perhaps the most controversial aspect is the novel's perceived nationalistic and, at times, racist undertones. Some readers have expressed discomfort with the portrayal of other nationalities and cultures, which can make for an unsettling reading experience. The translation quality has also been called into question, with reports of errors and awkward phrasing that detract from the overall enjoyment.

Final Verdict
"Extraordinary Genius" is a mixed bag. While the business management aspects and the initial premise are engaging, the problematic characterization, questionable cultural portrayals, and translation issues hold it back. If you're willing to overlook these flaws and are primarily interested in the business aspects, you might find it enjoyable. However, be prepared for a potentially bumpy ride. For me, it lands at a 3/5.
