Lin Wei, a modern corporate executive, traveled to a small northern town in 1978 after an accident. She became the female factory director of a local state-owned textile factory that was on the verge of bankruptcy when an educated youth returned to the city. Faced with the mess of outdated equipment, disengaged people, and shortage of raw materials, she brought modern management thinking. In the wave of the times when the aftermath of "going to the mountains and rural areas" was not over, and the beginning of reform and opening up, she comforted the old workers, rectified factory discipline, and broke through the old rules to find sales despite doubts. However, under the impact of the market economy, the factory went bankrupt, and she was reduced from the "iron rice bowl" director to an unemployed person. Unwilling to admit defeat, she seized the opportunity of self-employment and started selling homemade knitwear at a stall. With precise vision and innovative ideas, she gradually activated resources and built a team. Finally, she gained a foothold in the business world of the 1990s and became a female business boss spanning the textile and clothing fields. She not only changed her own destiny, but also led a group of laid-off workers to achieve a counterattack in life.
