share time: 2025-12-24 06:01:51

In 1983, Chen Mo, a young man in a county town, barely made ends meet with his late father's repair shop. A chance to fix imported equipment for a state-owned machinery factory earned him his first pot of gold—but also trouble: competitors reported him for "speculation," seizing his tools and shutting down his shop. When all seemed lost, his first love Lin Xiaowei—who broke up with him over "class differences" and now works as the factory's purchaser—offered help, on one condition: he must sell the factory's unsold parts. Chen Mo juggles competitor挤压, cash shortages, and unresolved resentment with Lin Xiaowei, while using the meticulousness of repairing watches to navigate a time of "crossing the river by feeling the stones." Can he turn a small repair business into an electromechanical empire spanning three provinces? And can their old love reignite in the tide of the times?
