In 2025, Jiang Cheng, a social worker who was worried about his mortgage and KPI, accidentally traveled to the 1980s and became a fake returnee from overseas. In order to avoid his identity being revealed, he went to the textile factory to give a report. With his 21st century business knowledge, he successfully deceived the city leaders and factory cadres, and was appointed as the general consultant for reform. This attracted the attention of the villain Song Yu, but every time Song Yu made things difficult was resolved by Jiang Cheng, which in turn allowed Jiang Cheng's status to rise. In the end, Jiang Cheng was pleasantly surprised to find that he was a real expert, and he established himself in the 1980s.
