At sixty, Chen Yan is reborn in 1980 to a home stripped bare and a gravely ill father. He decisively drops out of school and takes over the family tofu shop. Drawing on the wisdom he gained in his former life, he improves production methods, catches fish and goes into business, raises livestock, and repairs machinery. He rides the wave of reform and opening up, turning his fortunes around. From putting food on the table to leading his family to prosperity, he completely reverses the destitute life he once lived and writes an inspiring legend of a common man's rise to success!
