It tells the story of Lin Wanqiu, a girl from a fishing village in Guangdong, who started as a "speculator" at the beginning of the reform and opening up in 1978 and became the chairman of a well-known clothing company in 2008.
In the past forty years, she has followed the drum of the times, from the glimmer of Shenzhen grocery store to the "Southern Cantonese style" brand resounding across the country; from the entrepreneurial triangle with veteran Zhao Jianguo and Shanghai educated youth Su Min, to the painful transformation that experienced the betrayal of partners and the impact of the financial crisis; from the miss with Chen Yang, her lover in the system, due to differences in ideas, to the mutual understanding with Zhao Jianguo from partners to friends.
In her story, there are the gold and gold of a self-employed license, the hustle and bustle of the Canton Fair, the chill of the Asian financial crisis, the friendship over sharing instant noodles in the warehouse late at night, the determination to protect the ledger during the factory fire, and the tears when the bell rang for the listing. In the end, Lin Wanqiu, who stood on the stage of the 2008 Olympic Games, not only witnessed the take-off of China's economy, but also wrote a woman's answer to perseverance, growth and friendship in the wave of the times.
