On the first day Chu Chu transmigrated into the book, she opened the wardrobe full of luxury goods and had a feeling of a poor citizen becoming rich overnight.
Chu Chu:Are you kidding me? Does a wealthy president not like the tasty food in Michelin restaurants or feel that Chanel is not good looking?

She just wanted to feel the domineering life of a female president, but accidentally she set the professional benchmark for strong women.
Original female lead: My goal is to become an independent woman like President Chu! Love delayed my journey to get rich!

Thoughts:
A very comedic novel!
Before I start, I have to warn you that I don't know anything about business so I can't tell you if it's realistic or not. There are probably some aspects which is true to life and some not?
Anyways, the FL is really one of a kind. She isn't a Mary Sue who is skilled at things she didn't even encounter before, but what she does know, she excels at. She has a lot of flaws, but she sticks to her principles.
She is smart and knows how to use her words to her advantage. She is funny and assertive as well! Her advice may seem nonsensical, but at the same time it makes sense. Why? Because she stated it using (questionable) logical observations.
And true to the title, she is overbearing, but not to the point where you'll dislike her.
ML, on the other hand, IS a Gary Stu, not that I mind. In fact, I really liked him! He's the dream guy, the type of male lead that doesn't have the aura of one. Had I not read some spoilers before I started, I would totally be clueless.
I love the fact that he fully supports the FL. They are polar opposites, but they match each other's actions pretty well. I enjoyed reading their dynamic.
Funny dialogue:
FL's secretary: "Who on earth are you?"
FL: "I am the father you will never get."
There is a lot tbh, but I can't just add all of it here. I'll just add one quote that I really liked.
"I will change for important people, but important people will not force me to change."
So yeah moving on. I also quite liked the FL's dynamic with her father. It kind of reminded me of me and my dad, though theirs was more aggressive.
Overall it is a wonderful story! But it still has its flaws.
One of which is that its genre seems to jump from one to another. I don't really mind, but because I MTL'd it, it confused me at some parts. Sometimes it just seemed random and was probably added for fun.
It also has Yuri-baiting (now that I think about it, it's rather similar to Beware of The Villainess but in a modern setting) and the system kind of disappeared as well.
Still it's a great novel! Definitely read it for the laughs! Actually the romance part is strong too, but the comedy is undeniably stronger! So yeah, try it.
