Water has no permanent shape, but it can change its shape after entering different utensils. Human beings are like water, they have to be able to "take shape according to the object". As the saying goes, "Those who are accustomed to water nature will establish themselves in the world." The rivers and lakes are unfathomable, and there are whirlpools, undercurrents, and reefs somewhere. If you are not accustomed to water, you will inevitably capsize.
Fan Dawei is a businessman struggling on the edge of failure. His dream of taking root in the provincial capital has been repeatedly frustrated. Jiang Haolei is well versed in the "rules". With the help of a strange stone called "Golden Bull Watching the Moon", he cleverly established a relationship with Liao Zhizhen, director of the Water Conservancy Bureau, and won the river cleaning project. He also used this to promote the transfer of battlefield licenses and achieve a career breakthrough. A stone has become a fulcrum for leveraging power and resources. With the launch of the "Riverside Scenic Corridor" project, the competition between various political and business circles has become fierce, and officialdom, business ethics, human relationships, and power schemes are intertwined here to form a contemporary world scene. Fan Dawei also practiced "water nature" in the cruel world...
On the other hand, Fan Dawei's journalist girlfriend Tong Hui met female entrepreneur Shen Aili because of a profile report. The two pursued their own self-worth in the gap between shopping malls, workplaces and emotions. Tong Hui chose to resign and start a business in an attempt to get rid of her emotional fetters with Fan Dawei; while Shen Aili, despite having tens of millions of assets, healed the trauma of her marriage with a minimalist life. They reflect contemporary women's redefinition of independence and happiness.
