Forestry prodigy Su Ping is scorned and dumped by his girlfriend. Giving up his high-paying job prospects, he returns to his hometown and settles in the barren, deadly desert known as Ghost's Dread. Facing the villagers' ridicule and brutal natural disasters, he rallies his neighbors, drills wells, and brings in water, carving out a miraculous green belt amid the yellow sands. When local thugs cause trouble, he lays down the law with an iron fist; when sandstorms strike, he stands his ground and refuses to retreat. His desert-control achievements catch the attention of the county authorities, and the county magistrate arrives to offer his full support. As a livestream reaches viewers across the internet, the foundations of a vast green infrastructure project begin to take shape. With a grand vision of greening a million mu of land, he faces every challenge head-on, vowing to conquer the endless yellow sands through his own efforts.
