A graduate of the village school Pyotr Gorokhov from the village of Dyadkovo comes to Moscow to enter a prestigious economic university; he succeeds, albeit literally by a miracle.

The hero, a tall, blond, handsome man with a sense of humour, a labour leader, and an athlete, grew up in a family of metallurgists. After meeting a silly girl under very unusual circumstances, he fell in love with her.

Schoolboy Igor dreams of becoming a naval officer. But his father, a captain second rank, dreams of a musical career for his son. When the family moved to one of the northern islands, Igor organized a choir at school and became its leader. One day, the boy was hurt, and he began to doubt his abilities. But the arts competition in Murmansk, where he successfully performed in place of the soloist who had lost his voice, restored the dreamer's faith in his talent.
