Overview

Shanghai in the 1990s was full of opportunities and hope. Young A Bao (Hu Ge) relies on the spring breeze of the economic reform and his own hard work to become a rising star in the business world, and everyone knows it on Huanghe Road. The transformation of ordinary A Bao into Mr. Bao is inseparable from the help of Uncle Ye, Ling Zi, the owner of Night Tokyo, and Miss Wang of the foreign trade building. But a newly opened fashionable restaurant has thrown his originally successful career into turmoil, and his relationship with the people around him has also undergone unprecedented tests.
