The series tells the story of Bai Ju, a girl adopted by Bai Ge Gen, the team leader of the Qinghai-Tibet Highway project, and his wife Zhang Qin Qin.

Yang Zi shared the physically demanding experiences during filming. On her second day on set, she went straight to a location at 4,000 meters above sea level. “I thought I would be fine, but once I got there, my head hurt badly, and I could hardly speak. I had to deliver my lines while breathing oxygen,” Yang Zi said.
