- Instead of indulging in macro narratives, it is better to focus on the details of life.
Chen Shuwen, an English major student at a prestigious university, suffered repeated workplace blows after graduation. After returning to his hometown, he faced a series of workplace discrimination based on age, major, and gender, and was eventually unemployed.
While pretending to go to work every day, she ran into Jiang Ye, who was also unemployed, in a cafe.
Chen Shuwen: What a coincidence, I also graduated from Jiangsu University.
Jiang Ye: ... Unfortunately, we have been taking classes together for three years.
A few days later, Jiang Yichuan, who had taken advantage of his grandfather's salary, lost the support in life and was once again thrown back into the dire job market.
A week later, Chen Shuwen's good sister Qin Qin also suffered a tragedy in the workplace. A heart-stirring "I don't want to serve you anymore" completed her frustrated career.
Jiang Yichuan: Aren't we a complete alliance of failed fronts?
Small theater 1:
a rainy night
Jiang Ye: Let me take you home.
Chen Shuwen: It's okay, no need to bother.
Jiang Ye: ... Okay.
(Hide your umbrella)
Jiang Ye: Let's go home together. I didn't bring an umbrella.
Chen Shuwen:......
Some rainy day
Jiang Ye: It's raining. Did you bring an umbrella?
Chen Shuwen was lying on his bed and replied: No, I just came out of the company.
Jiang Ye: I'll pick you up.
Chen Shuwen: OK, waiting for you!
(Get up and go out, leaving the umbrella at home)
Small theater 2:
Li Shuxian: Sister Shuwen, I want to get into a good university, study a major that I like, and then find a job that I like and that is challenging. I stand in a high-end office building every day, dressed like an urban beauty, holding a cup of coffee, chatting and laughing with my colleagues in the office.
Chen Shuwen: You dare to think.
Li Shuxian: Isn't my sister like this?
Chen Shuwen: ... I have been unemployed for a long time.
