The show follows the journey of Lu Xiao (played by Neo Hao), a guy who's got big dreams and doesn't wanna be stuck as a laborer forever. But thanks to the economic crisis in the 90s, he's gotta take a job at a factory. Knowing nothing more than the working-class life he is born into, headstrong Lu Xiaolu reluctantly starts down the path he is expected to follow. At age nineteen in 1990s China, he feels pressure to follow suit with those around him and takes a job at the town’s saccharin factory. Slowly, he adjusts to the bureaucratic factory routine, making the best of the situation by bonding with coworkers, flirting with girls, and refusing to give in completely to the expectations of those around him. As Lu Xiaolu finds his way, a startling portrait of an economically expanding China comes into view; the propaganda of a common goal gives way to a bottom-line system that he sees as indifferent to individual happiness. But thanks to the relationships he develops, Lu Xiaolu decides to fight for the life he wants. © Tencent/MGTV **Disclaimer: The images and/or videos used are not owned by DramaVibes.
