After I Lost My Job, I Relied on Dreams to Win My Life

35-Year-old Yang Fan was once a top student at the Academy of Fine Arts. After the epidemic, his studio closed down and he was in debt of 200,000. His wife Lin Wei left him to pursue a career in Shenzhen. He lives alone with his 3-year-old daughter Guoguo in a 10-square-meter partitioned house and makes a living by delivering food. At the most desperate moment, he accidentally activated a "dream system" - the first level of dreaming restores physical strength, the second level improves skills, and the third level changes reality. The deeper the layers, the greater the rewards, but also the easier it is to get lost. He relied on his dreams to become the king of takeout orders, painted the hit work "Father and the Deer", paid off part of his debts, and opened a charity art studio. However, his excessive dependence on dreams caused him to start sleepwalking, unable to distinguish between dreams and reality, and he even almost lost his daughter. The ex-wife came back to fight for custody, and cyber violence, lawsuits, and psychological evaluations followed one after another. Under the protection of his daughter Guoguo ("I am the only father"), his neighbor Grandma Wang, his brother Zhou Shen, the owner of the painting material store Su He, the scrap collector Lao Li, his old classmate Chen Yiming and others, Yang Fan finally reconciled with himself in the dream (20-year-old idealism) and understood: the biggest dream is not to win the world, but to wake up and see you. The story ends with the establishment of a public welfare studio, the reunion of everyone, the growth of Guoguo, and the warm response twenty years later. Theme: The story of a man climbing up from the bottom, the deep love of a father fighting for his daughter, the human reality of a group of ordinary people keeping each other warm in the cold winter. Core quote: "The dream of twenty-year-old, the life of thirty-five-year-old, are all true."
