Set against the backdrop of 1970s China, the narrative explores the transformation of Mercedes-Benz's presence in the country over five decades. The author reflects on their childhood experiences in a government-military compound in Shijiazhuang, where Mercedes cars were exclusive to high-ranking officials. The story highlights the rarity of these luxury vehicles, often passed down from ambassadors, and the sense of privilege felt by the author when witnessing the car's distinctive horn, a symbol of status and power among peers.
