The Model Worker at the 1980S Machinery Plant

When Zhao Zhining, a mechanical engineer from the Republican era, transmigrates to 1980, the smoke of war has cleared. Machines roar in the factories, and the sound of students reading aloud fills the schools. She is overcome with emotion. "How wonderful... Our blood wasn't shed in vain." As for her relatives who favor sons over daughters, and her fiance who wants to marry up... After finally achieving peace, who would waste time on this nonsense! Better to have skills of her own and a paycheck in her pocket. That's what gives a woman a backbone! Get into the factory! Earn money! Master technology! Study hard and serve the country! Isn't it great to go from a factory apprentice to a master artisan of a great nation? Coming soon: "Queen of Home Appliances [The 1980s]" Cheng Xuezheng, a PhD in engineering, transmigrates into the body of a temporary worker at the Hongxing Electrical Appliance Factory in 1980 and wakes up to a disastrous start: Her family is desperately poor, she's been framed at work, and she's about to be fired. Her blind date is even worse, curling his lip as he says, "What future can a woman have? You should get married already!" Cheng Xuezheng: ...Fine. You'll soon see a future you can't even imagine! From then on, the Hongxing Factory... no, the entire home appliance industry undergoes a dramatic transformation: When foreign fans are expensive and noisy, Cheng Xuezheng develops a quiet fan that sells out across the country overnight. When semiautomatic washing machines are still rare, the fully automatic model she leads the development of becomes a must-have for newlyweds. When foreign color TVs still seem out of reach, her homegrown televisions overturn the foreign brands' dominance. The blind date who once looked down on her wakes in the middle of the night and slaps himself. The workshop director who once tried to fire her now respectfully calls her "Engineer Cheng." The international giants that once monopolized technology are driven back step by step, until she finally brings them under her wing. She has only one goal: to bring Chinese manufacturing to the world! Theme: Immersed in technology, unable to stop.
