Back to 1977: Starting at the Army Infantry Academy!

In 1977, the system of recommending workers, peasants, and soldiers for university was abolished, and the college entrance exams were reinstated!

Qi Yang is reborn the day before the exams and once again faces the surging tides of a new era.

Given a second chance at life, this time he'll live differently!

He'll take first place in the first college entrance exams, bring honor to his family, and become a hot topic followed across the country.

He'll seize the opportunities of reform and opening up, become one of the first self-employed business owners, attend military academy while quietly building assets worth tens of millions.

Just after joining the military as an officer, military reforms begin and funding runs short. He invests most of his assets in the armed forces, helping the army complete its transition to combined-arms and high-tech warfare ahead of schedule, and earns the title of First-Class Meritorious Contributor!

Ten years later, the military rank system is restored, and senior officers are once again awarded the rank of general. Qi Yang is among them!
