Restarting 1980: From Screws to the Stars and the Sea

Top engineer Lin Mo is reborn in 1980 as a poor farm boy who failed the college entrance exam.

With a house bare of everything and unclear policies, he swings a hammer and strikes up a technological revolution! He modifies farm tools and earns 185 a day, astounding the whole village; he repairs machines with such skill that the county factory is shaken. Little Liulin Village can’t contain a dragon like him.

Heading south to Pengwan, he builds his fortune from nothing: manufacturing precision bearings at home to break Western monopolies, and developing stepper motors to ignite an automation revolution! Xingchen Technology rises from a small workshop to become a behemoth that makes international giants tremble.

But Lin Mo’s ambitions go beyond wealth.

Precision machine tools, domestic chips, photoresist, materials for jumbo jets... With one hand, he builds a business empire; with the other, he secretly helps the nation prosper through “Spark.” Using technology as his plow, he cultivates an unprecedented path to national strength in the barren soil of the 1980s!

From the precision of a single screw to the journey across the sea of stars, this is his rebirth, and the rebirth of Xia Kingdom’s technology!

(Rebirth and comeback, technological dominance, the ups and downs of business, strengthening the nation from behind the scenes, the tide of an era)
