Waking up to find himself back in 1982, Li Jiawen starts out as a trainee technician banished to an undesirable post.

As his career steadily reaches new heights, the expressive, captivating eyes of radio announcer Wu Xiaomei quietly find their way into his busy life. Their exchanged glances during an interview and unexpected encounters outside the factory canteen soften the heart of this man who has lived two lifetimes. Having lived through two eras, he understands better than anyone the countless opportunities this age has to offer. After spending half his life making his way back to the top, this time he is determined to become a leading figure in China's domestic engine industry—and, more importantly, to hold on to the young woman waiting for him to finish work at the radio station.
