Sixty-three-year-old Wudan Jin Guilan was in troubled times due to the plague. She recruited six orphans to form a theater troupe, but she unexpectedly traveled to modern times. She became a hit in variety shows with her martial arts skills, and used her performance remuneration to buy medicine and supplies to help children. Her colleague Su Tiantian was jealous and plotted against her many times, but Jin Guilan established herself with virtue. She traveled back and forth, opening a hotpot restaurant and rebuilding a theater in ancient times; she took the stage to promote opera in modern times, met Cheng Xiaoyue, the inheritor, and used her fireworks career to protect the flames of Chinese quintessence.
