In 1983, a tale of two cities, Shanghai and Shenzhen: a love story and a dream taking wing amid the tide of reform**
Sang Xiaoman, a technician at a Shanghai textile mill, has hands that can tame any machine and a heart that yearns for the world of design. A chance collision in a rainstorm brings her into conflict with Yu Weiming, a Hong Kong businessman who has returned from abroad. He's arrogant and shrewd, yet the English song in his car reveals another side of him. She's stubborn and headstrong, yet the design sketches she drops reveal her remarkable talent.
