In 1982, Lu Chen, a poor young man from a fishing village on the East China Sea, is driven out to find food because his sharp-tongued sister-in-law thinks he eats too much.
He heads to the beach after the tide goes out and unexpectedly finds a magical diary that records events yet to come.
The first entry leaves Lu Chen stunned: This evening, village beauty Bai Wanxi will fall into the sea and drown!
Bai Wanxi is the village chief's only daughter and a student at Xiamen University, a rare phoenix who flew out of their little village.
Most importantly, she'd once brought him steamed buns made with lifesaving flour. She was beautiful and kindhearted!
Lu Chen rushes to the pier to save her, using the CPR technique he learned from the village broadcasts to rescue Bai Wanxi.
Only then does he realize that the future foretold in the diary is real!
From then on, he relies on the diary of the future to harvest seafood, start aquaculture, open factories, and make a fortune...
In the 1980s, he rises from humble beginnings to become the richest man in the country!
