Reborn into 1984, Shu Chunsheng worked tirelessly for three years in the steel rolling mill's cafeteria. When his chance to become a permanent worker was stolen away, he decided to take unpaid leave and embark on an entrepreneurial journey with his cooking skills. Starting with a street cart serving braised pork, he won the recognition of workers through great flavor and honesty. From a humble stall to the Chunchen Restaurant, he later apprenticed under the imperial chef Master Han to continuously hone his craft. As his restaurant grew and reliable partners joined, Shu Chunsheng began planning branch locations and a culinary school, while also crossing paths with provincial reporter Wang Zhimei along the way. With career, family, and romance intertwined, he resolved to reclaim his lost dignity and future with his own two hands.
