The secret recipe of Zhaojialou's ancestral fried rice disappeared when his grandfather passed away, and Zhao Yu'an, the second generation of rich people, fell to the bottom overnight. Enemy Sun Delu took the opportunity to grab customers, and capital tycoon Chen Bifang tried to acquire it - until he met Zhou Heming, a returnee doctor. A bowl of failed fried rice with an imbalanced oil and salt ratio actually led Zhou Heming to learn the lost "pot qi formula". The two teamed up to decipher the underlying logic of fried rice: temperature, heat transfer, and molecular reorganization of ingredients. Zhao Yu'an used scientific reconstruction techniques and used a bowl of "green pepper, ham and egg fried rice" to defeat Chen Bifang in the food competition. But just when he thought he had won everything back, Zhou Heming's test report showed that there was a poison hidden in the ancestral secret recipe that should not exist.
