In the 1950s, Gu Xinhua was the whole village's great hope. Then she failed the entrance exam and lost the chance to study in the Soviet Union she'd dreamed of for so long.

Her classmates took turns mocking her. They all said she'd disgraced herself and had no choice but to go home and get married.

But by chance, she activated a System that rewarded her for taking advice. She returned to the village to take over a chicken farm, along with a thousand day-old chicks awarded by the System.

Everyone in the village laughed, saying she'd studied herself stupid. They waited for her to lose every penny.

"Can't afford feed? A thousand chicks with nothing to eat? The bank's prize savings program might let you draw the grand prize."

All right, prize savings unlocked! She won the grand prize: one thousand yuan!

Through her own efforts, she grew the chicken farm bigger and bigger, exporting eggs overseas and becoming the country's foremost queen of poultry farming, celebrated in the newspapers.

One by one, those who had looked down on her grew jealous and regretful, and she gave them a thorough face-slapping.
