The story follows Fang Wanzhi, a girl born in a remote mountainous area in southwestern China whose life takes an unexpected turn after facing family problems and heartbreak.
At the age of 20, Fang Wanzhi leaves university and travels to the fast-growing city of Shenzhen in search of work.
There, she meets two close friends, Li Juan and Hao Qianqian. The three women begin their journey as ordinary workers and gradually explore business opportunities together.
As Shenzhen rapidly develops into a major economic hub, they move from factory work to foreign trade and eventually start their own toy brand.
Their path to success, however, is far from easy.
The trio faces numerous setbacks, business challenges, and even betrayal from people they once trusted.
Despite the hardships, Fang Wanzhi continues to push forward.
Determined to improve herself, she attends night classes and studies English while working, constantly striving to seize the opportunities created during China’s period of economic reform.
Years of perseverance eventually pay off when the company she built grows into a publicly listed business.
Later in life, Fang Wanzhi decides to step back from daily operations and entrust the company to her team.
She returns to her hometown in the mountains known as Shenxianding with her adopted daughter Fang Miaomiao and her close companion Gao Xiang.
The journey back symbolizes a full circle in her life, reflecting the deeper theme of destiny and the choices people make along the way.
