Synopsis

Archaeology PhD Chen Yi had his grand dreams of exploring the stars and seas put on hold at home by a pandemic. The excavation pits at Sanxingdui seemed impossibly far away, but a document appointing him as a special hire for the Historical Records Office sent him tumbling into the tangled “territory” of his own workplace: Qingzhou Postal Bureau. This was no dead end for his career. It was the starting point of a post road connecting the three realms. In a dusty archive room, a piece of “red flint” from the Han dynasty changed his life completely. With the Xiongnu bearing down on the border, he became a beacon keeper who upheld the Code of Conduct. Amid the upheavals of the late Qing, he was one of the pioneers who helped establish the Great Qing Postal Service. He bore witness to the truth: the postal routes are the lifeblood of the nation. Back in the present, he drew on the wisdom of past and present to find a way for the postal service to crush its rivals in the brutal world of express delivery. He restored the luster of the sign reading “People’s Postal Service,” making the routes through remote mountain villages an unbroken lifeline. And as he stepped into the future, facing a flood of information, he built the “Heartfelt Waystation,” where the warmth of handwritten letters became a remedy for the ills of the age. He showed everyone that while the postal service may evolve, its mission as a cornerstone of the nation and a bond between people will endure forever! What reaches the heavens is not any one person’s power, but the lifeblood of China, protected for three thousand years!
