A young man from a rural family where he has no place to call his own refuses to blame fate. Instead, he decides to leave his hometown and seek a way forward in the city.
Behind the city's glittering facade lie harsh realities and ruthless competition. As he struggles through the hardships of working odd jobs, he gradually realizes that life isn't as wonderful as he'd imagined, but it isn't as terrible as he'd feared, either!
By chance, he comes across the seemingly unremarkable business of collecting discarded, broken cell phones. At first, he approaches it as a mere experiment, but the more he learns about the industry, the more he sees its enormous potential and business opportunities.
His story is about one man's growth and struggle, but it also offers a vivid reflection on the families we are born into, life as a migrant worker, factory romance, the survival strategies of small-time merchants and peddlers, the lives of ordinary people, and the many sides of society.
It shows how an ordinary person can find his own worth and direction in adversity, struggle at the bottom of society, and ultimately redeem himself.
