1955: From Overseas-Educated Mediocrity to Top Engineer

In 1955, the land had been pacified, and everything was waiting to be rebuilt.

Zhou Yuan transmigrates into the identity of the original owner's returned overseas student, educated in the United States, and is assigned to Linhuai Jianghuai Heavy Machinery Factory as a ninth-grade engineer.

Everyone at the factory has high hopes, believing that a talent sent from heaven can break through the factory's technical bottlenecks and make up for its production shortfalls.

No one knows that beneath the impressive facade is a fraud with nothing to show for himself.

Fortunately, the inference AI he brought with him when he transmigrated binds to him as well, becoming his own external brain.

In public, he is the factory's admired engineer educated in the United States, valued by his superiors and envied by his colleagues.

Behind the scenes, amid countless scrutinizing and watchful eyes, he steadily digs in, poring over blueprints, solving tough problems, improving processes, and tackling technical challenges.

From a showy theorist who only talks a good game to a hands-on expert rooted on the factory floor;

from a returned student dismissed by everyone as a fraud to the technical backbone holding up a heavy-industry enterprise!

In this era, he will make something of himself.
