Being ridiculed by his money-worshiping girlfriend as "he will only be able to work with wood for the rest of his life", Chen Lin fled from the city back to the wood carving town in despair, becoming what his neighbors call a "waste carpenter who has lost his education". The rusty lathe, worn-out carving knives, and the taunts from Zhang Qiang, the son of the butcher Zhang, who came to the door every day, seemed to confirm his failure. Until one day, everyone stared at Chen Lin, who was standing on the shoulders of the wooden gun in the camera, shouting, "This is impossible! How can wood do it?" Chen Lin just wiped the sawdust on his hands.
