In the workshop of a state-owned garment factory in 1995, 22-year-old Lin Xiaomei was being scolded by her supervisor for giving an laid-off aunt extra leftover fabric. To make matters worse, her three-year boyfriend suddenly broke up with her to marry the factory director's daughter, mocking her, "You'll only operate a sewing machine for life." Crying at the factory gate that night, she found a lost "vintage denim" foreign trade order from a foreign businessman—having learned to modify old clothes from her grandma since childhood, she was best at hand-distressing! She scraped money to start a "family workshop", but was cheated out of startup capital, her mother was hospitalized from anxiety, and the original factory even stole clients... She sold her grandma's silver hairpin to survive and even cooperated with her former supervisor who once scolded her. When "Xiaomei Denim" became a local landmark, her ex-boyfriend begged for reconciliation, while Lao Zhou, who always fixed machines for her, blushed and handed over his savings book. From a garment worker to a female boss, she proved in three years: In the 90s, there's no "impossible", only "dare or not."
