In a car accident, top lawyer Lin Wei transformed into a poor village girl whose engagement was broken off in 1987.
Faced with the ridicule of the whole village, her family being surrounded by orphans, and her sickly mother and younger brother, she did not cry and accept her fate. Instead, she used modern legal knowledge to refute those who forced her into marriage, and kept her last dignity and meager betrothal gift.
The original owner's private collection of Hong Kong fashion magazines allowed her to see the glimmer of a breakthrough.
With a pair of old scissors and a few feet of coarse fabric, she transformed the first "fashionable" dress in the mountain village.
From setting up a stall in the black market to a small shop in the county town, from being ridiculed as a "speculator" to obtaining the first batch of self-employed licenses, the bell-bottom pants she designed became popular in the small town and also attracted the attention of the mysterious man.
He went south to Shenzhen and faced plagiarism lawsuits; he went north to Beijing and bravely entered the CCTV tender.
The "Weiguang" brand she founded has illuminated the path to independence for countless ordinary women.
Some people said she was too flamboyant, and some said she didn't look like a woman. She just smiled: "In this era, others shouldn't define who I should be."
When the Paris show lights up for her, when people who once bullied her look up to her figure,
Lin Wei knew that the way she walked against the light,
It is not only a counterattack of wealth, but also an epic story of a woman breaking free from her shackles and redefining the times.
"I want more than just good clothes and food,
Let all the girls who are looked down upon believe——
You can earn your own light. "
