In a small southern county in 1998, Chen Mo, a stubborn young man laid off from a machinery factory, was just cheated on by his girlfriend with Zhou Jian, the factory director's son, and publicly humiliated as "worse than garbage". Desperate, he found that the overstocked thick cotton socks in the county were popular among migrant workers in Guangzhou. He raised money to buy stock but was cut off by Zhou Jian, slandered, and even had his warehouse taken back. In despair, Chen Mo joined laid-off workers to modify an old packaging machine, turning thick socks into "trendy workwear socks", and formed a "grassroots supply team" to visit factory dormitories. In less than six months, his hosiery business got a foreign trade order. When he drove a Santana back to the county, Zhou Jian was blocking the door begging for stock—and his ex-girlfriend, who once said he "would never amount to anything", clutched the plastic hairpin from years ago with red eyes.
