The Chip Master Who Emerged from a Mountain Village

Everyone has their own fate. The fortunate ride the winds to rise, while the unfortunate remain trapped in the mire.

1979, a mountain village in southern Jiangxi, on the eve of a turning point in history.

Shen Shi was born as his family fortunes rose and fell. He had seen the poverty of the mountain village and the warmth and cruelty of the world.

He would not conform to the crowd or let fate sweep him along. His only way out was to break through by studying.

Leaving the impoverished countryside behind, he won admission to Shanghai Jiao Tong University's Department of Microelectronics.

From then on, he entered China's most cutting-edge chip industry, facing the mighty tide of the country's semiconductor industry rising from nothing.

A poor boy rides the winds of his era.

With a humble body, he kindles the spark of Chinese chips.
