Fireworks in the Building Under Construction

This is a masterpiece of urban reality growth rooted in the construction industry. It takes the two-year project period as the timeline and focuses on a high-rise residential building under construction in Jiangnan New Town. It uses a first-person perspective to describe the daily fireworks of wandering builders and the tender feelings of two-way redemption, and writes about the most touching human situations in the reinforced concrete world. Chen Mu, a 31-year-old first-class construction engineer, comes from a poor family and has been working in the construction industry for eight years. He is calm and reserved. He has experienced emotional setbacks and is full of hesitation about life and destiny. During the demolition of a prefabricated house, he led all members of the project department to move into an unfinished residential building, and from then on he lived next to the smoky data clerk Shi Yi. Twenty-seven-year-old Shi Yi comes from a humble background, is independent and tenacious, and sees through life's ups and downs. However, he always takes three meals and four seasons seriously, injecting warmth into the cold construction site with his home-cooked meals and a sincere heart. The rough building is the home, and the reinforced wall is the neighbor. In the days when they were together day and night, the two supported each other and gradually got closer during the many tests of construction site emergency repairs, salary turmoil, acceptance problems, and the typhoon situation. The old project managers who protect their own interests and the lively and enthusiastic workers and partners around them pieced together the most authentic group portrait of the construction site, hiding the perseverance and helplessness of the underlying practitioners. From the rough house where they temporarily stayed to the safe and stable home of Yanhuo, from wandering alone to running in both directions, Chen Mu and Shi Yi overcame the shackles of their original families, the ties of past regrets, and the obstacles of class and reality. While building buildings, they built their own lives and love bit by bit. The book is based on the various aspects of the construction industry. There is no suspended plot, only the healing and warmth of ordinary life, and the struggle, perseverance and tenderness of ordinary people are revealed.
