Zhou Zheng, a graduate of the architecture department at Dongda University, is reborn in 1995, on the eve of the mass layoff wave. He awakens an Industrial Revitalization System that rewards him for every employee he recruits. Giving up the secure job assigned to him at a state-owned enterprise, he forms a construction team, treats his workers well, and insists on maintaining construction quality. He successively takes over several state-owned cement plants and silk textile factories on the verge of bankruptcy, providing jobs for large numbers of laid-off workers. While countering malicious competition from rivals, he opens up domestic production channels as well as foreign trade routes with Russia and southern China. Step by step, he builds the Shenghua Group, revitalizes multiple local industrial supply chains, increases the income of thousands of workers, and earns recognition from the local government. Amid the sweeping changes of the times, he carves out a path to industrial revitalization.
