Lin Jue, a third-rate screenwriter who makes a living by mass-producing tear-jerking "poisonous chicken soup" short video scripts, has learned all his life how to accurately concoct and sell false emotions. He himself has already exhausted all the real joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys in the day-to-day assembly line work and has become an emotional "insulator".
He originally thought that his life was a script that was unfinished in the middle of writing, until an unprecedented "joy leak" broke out in the office building where he worked. Everyone in the company laughed like a group of lunatics who had their laugh holes clicked. Only he felt like he had watched an extremely poor comedy.
The next second, two mysterious men and women wearing cheap suits, holding "sorrow collectors" and "bureaucratic style" kicked open the door and "invited" him away on the charge of "illegal resistance to the emotional balance of the universe."
From then on, Lin Jue was forced to join the most mysterious, absurd, and "inhumane" unit Emotional Management Bureau in the universe.
When an expert in selling fake relationships encounters a cosmic crisis that requires him to deal with true relationships, he discovers that his screenwriting skills of "making people cry in three minutes and making people laugh in five minutes" have become the key to saving the world.
"Wait a minute, you said that the 'ultimate sorrow' that can swallow up a galaxy needs me to neutralize it with a touching story?"
"Yes, Mr. Lin. The budget is limited. Please complete the script within thirty minutes. Thank you for your cooperation."
"Can I apply for a work-related injury first? My heart seems to be starting to hurt."
This is an absurd comedy about a young screenwriter who is forced to save the world in a cosmic "neighborhood committee" and find his own joy, anger, sorrow and joy at the same time.
