Rebirth 1993: From Repair Shop to Automobile

Zhou Xiangdong spent thirty years fixing cars—he could tell which cylinder was misfiring just by the sound of the engine. Then he opened his eyes and was back in 1993, where his father's repair shop was saddled with a three-thousand-yuan bad debt, and the creditor was coming to lock the doors tomorrow. That year, the Santana was still a status symbol for the wealthy, and a single carburetor could earn three months' wages. But he knew: the automobile profit boom six years later, the car-manufacturing gold rush ten years later, and the streets full of new-energy vehicles twenty years later—all of it was etched into his mind. While other reborn souls rushed to flip clothing and color TVs, Zhou Xiangdong insisted on wrestling with chunks of iron—repairing cars, opening factories, building automobiles. When foreign giants clutched their technology and choked China's neck, he planted his wrench in the ground: "It's time for Chinese people's own cars to hit the road." — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Rebirth 1993: From Repair Shop to Automobile — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
