Like Iron

When the crumpled enlistment notice was finally unfolded, Chen Yixing's life was thrown into a furnace called the military camp. There is no grand narrative here, only the desperate battle with a quilt at four in the morning, the collective dignity that must be screamed at the throat before meals, and the eight hands stretched out at the same time when the five kilometers are on the verge of reaching the limit and never give up. From "Why me" to "This is us", he and eight comrades from all over the world gradually lost the roughness and impurities of pig iron in the days of being repeatedly beaten by rules and soaked in sweat. This is not a heroic legend, but a story about how ordinary people were forged into shape - about how discipline is carved into bones, how responsibility sinks into shoulders, and how a group of strangers become the strongest support in each other's lives. Enter "Like Iron" and witness a silent and majestic coming-of-age ceremony.
