Lin Yang is a young man with no formal educational background, yet he begins an extraordinary journey from underdog to success at a pharmaceutical group.
When he first joins the group, he is assigned two daunting tasks: developing a medicinal formula and organizing materials from ancient medical texts. No one believes he can do it. But thanks to his solid medical skills and keen insight into traditional Chinese medicine, he discovers a small booklet while sorting through the materials. It leads to a major breakthrough in developing the formula, and he gets to face-slap the colleagues who were waiting to see him fail.
After that, Lin Yang truly shines. The new formula he develops proves highly effective in clinical trials, and he also launches a popular line of health products, dramatically boosting the group's performance and making himself the center of attention.
But this also sparks jealousy among some senior executives. They secretly withhold resources from Lin Yang's project and arrange for one of their trusted aides to infiltrate his team and cause trouble, hoping to make him look foolish and fail.
However, Lin Yang refuses to let adversity defeat him. When resources run short, he cleverly extracts useful ingredients from discarded medicinal herbs to ease the shortage. As for the saboteur, he quietly gathers evidence, then exposes him in front of everyone and throws him off the team. Next, he adjusts the project plan and leads his team back on track.
In the end, those senior executives suffer the consequences of their own actions and are severely punished by the head of the group. Through intelligence and hard work, Lin Yang secures his place at the pharmaceutical group and makes a spectacular comeback, going from doubted to respected. His story is full of excitement and deeply satisfying.
