In 2008, the summer in Jianghai City was ignited by the Olympic heat wave. This year, Lin Yuan, a student from a poor family, entered a grassroots tax position with a new pair of leather shoes and full of enthusiasm.
With no background, he relies on his ingenuity of "doing ordinary work to the extreme" and his delicacy of "thinking one step more than others", writing his own legend in the small workstation. From being a clerk handling trivial bills to being the backbone of the administration and promoting changes in the industry, Lin Yuan spent twenty years proving that on the cornerstone of the system, emotional intelligence is the ladder to excellence, while original intention is the beacon that will never go out.
This is an advanced history about growth, choice and ideals, and it is also a career song that pays tribute to the strivers of the times.
