One understands the rules of capital, and the other understands the neighborhood world.
Chen Youning is a well-known salted fish charterer in Liwan, Guangzhou. He wears slippers to collect rent and carries keys to repair water pipes. His biggest daily ambition is to drink frozen lemon tea, bask in the sun, and have fewer meetings. Until the wind of renovation of the old street blew into Yongan Lane, the hearts of the neighbors were floating. Fake outreach letters came to coax the elderly to sign autographs, and Liang Yanxing from Central also sat in the candy shop.
Liang Yanxing is the most difficult person to date in Hong Kong. If others want to see him, they have to make arrangements; if a project wants to see him, he must first withstand interrogation. He is calm, restrained and dignified. When he first arrived in Guangzhou, he met Chen Youning in a leaky old street. This charterer seems to be undisciplined and unforgiving, but he holds half the street's keys and favors in his hands.
The two went from misjudgment and mutual hostility to working side by side to find out the interests behind the old reform; from the negotiation table to the rooftop of the old building, and from a "no money talk" dinner, they learned to turn off their mobile phones and just listen to each other's words.
Later, everyone in Hong Kong knew that the most valuable thing about Liang Yanxing was not his time, but his willingness to shut down his phone for Chen Youning.
Concept: In an era where everyone is online at all times, two adults who are good at pretending choose to turn off their phones, slow down, and love each other seriously.
