Tide Outside the Customs

In 2016, the daughter of Chen Shan, an electrician in Tieling, Liaoning, was diagnosed with congenital heart disease and the surgery cost 300,000 yuan. He was still short of 180,000 yuan from selling his house and borrowing money. He had no choice but to follow Zhou Bingkun, a foreman from his hometown, to the construction site in the Iraqi war zone. He was verbally promised $120 a day, but was reduced to $100 when he got there. The construction site is like a prison, with unexploded mines, roadside bombs, and armed security. Zhou Bingkun exploited in secret, bookkeeper Sun Wenbin secretly seized power to pay off his gambling debts, and his leader Zhao Shanhe was shot because of his vulgar impulsiveness. Chen Shan doesn't take sides or get involved, he only sticks to his skills and saves money by taking on private jobs recommended by local electrician Mustafa. The old electrician Liu Genzhu was oppressed to the point of critical kidney failure, and Chen Shan was completely heartbroken. Sun Wenbin offered Chen Shan neutrality in exchange for a salary recovery, and Chen Shan nodded for his daughter. After seizing power, Zhao Shanhe and Sun Wenbin had internal strife and the construction site was paralyzed. Chen Shan risked his life and entered the minefield to complete the overhaul and collect the final payment, and his daughter's surgery was successful. Based on his reputation for zero mistakes and the construction notes left by German engineers, he was hired by Chinese investors as a lead electrician. He put out cigarette butts and took root steadily.
