A lifetime of regret completed the series of stories in the first episode with a timestamp. Important initial test: entering the era and regional atmosphere.

The road of life depicts the plot of the play, which is in line with 1977' s general lack of knowledge and inadequate preparation after the resumption of the college entrance examination. Gao Jialin, the biggest in the village, was teased by fate, and his college dream came to an abrupt end; It seems that the high binary star favored by fate has been pushed by "theft".
