In 1982, Lin Zhenhai is reborn on the very day his family splits up. Facing cold-hearted and blatantly partial relatives, he resolutely leaves with his wife and daughter, taking nothing with him, and settles on the desolate Guimen Reef. Drawing on the iron will forged during his military service and his extraordinary underwater detection ability, Lin Zhenhai braves the wind and waves to uncover treasures and catch fish. Through his own hard work, he builds a happy haven for his wife and daughter. He also courageously breaks the village bully's monopoly and leads his fellow villagers to make a living from the sea and grow prosperous together. This is an uplifting tribute to the self-reliance, perseverance, and passionate struggle of the daring pioneers who rode the waves in the 1980s!
