The first 200 lines.
WHEN WILL WE BECOME WINNERS IN LIFE?
WHEN I'M THE TOP FEMALE STREAMER
WHEN I MAKE THEM POPULAR!
WHEN I FINISH BINGING THE SERIES!
THE ONE I ENVY THE MOST
Okay, folks. It's almost time.
Look to the front.
Okay, come on. Say cheese with me.
Here we go. Three, two, one.
-Cheese! -Let's make it sexier.
Like this.
Like this.
Touch your head.
Okay, cover your ears.
Touch your neck.
Touch your shoulder.
That summer,
we went our separate ways.
We weren't together,
but we still talked every day.
What are you all up to?
It has been so long.
I miss you all so much.
Why aren't you back yet?
It's Shitou's birthday soon.
This is the first birthday
since we graduated.
We have to celebrate.
We sure will.
I miss you all too.
But I'm looking at you, Dabao.
You had better not miss this.
I will be back.
This is Shitou's birthday.
I'll book flight tickets now.
Awesome!
JIANG XIAOGUO, MARKET ANALYST INTERN AT LANHE CAPITAL
Shitou!
I'm here.
About time someone showed up.
I've been here for half an hour. Honestly!
Sorry.
Why aren't they here yet?
I thought I was the last one.
LUO YAN, OPERATION SPECIALIST OF GOLDEN VALLEY AMUSEMENT PARK
Okay, to make it up to you,
I'll foot the bill today.
I can't let you pay on my birthday.
The stingy Ms. Jiang volunteered to pay.
Did something good happen?
I got a permanent position.
Starting today, I'm a market analyst at Lanhe Capital.
I'll get severance pay if I'm laid off.
I have good news too.
What is it?
Our amusement park
closed down.
How is this good news?
I thought that
working at a happy place
would make me happy.
But even if it's a happy place,
I still have to work.
Where is the joy in that?
Things are different now.
I read comics in bed every day now.
My mom doesn't bother me.
That's true happiness.
You have a point.
That makes three pieces of good news.
We have to celebrate.
What's with the meatballs?
Not again! The price has gone up.
Prices keep rising,
but I haven't gotten a raise.
I'm here!
Dabao!
Come and order.
-Waiter, we're ready. -Excuse me!
-Here. -Coming.
This section and this section.
-Give me one of each. Thank you. -Okay.
You're the hungriest rich girl I've seen.
Don't get me started.
To make sure my artists stay on a diet,
I eat salads with them.
My most filling meal of the week
was my in-flight meal.
So you fly back from Beijing every week
because you miss the food, not us.
I mostly miss you guys.
But I also miss the beef meatballs here.
Waiter, one more beef meatball, please!
-Okay. -Order some vegetables as well.
Grumpy has to eat too.
Is she not here yet?
She's livestreaming. She's downstairs.
Let me see.
Look at the effect of this lipstick.
It's moisturizing and it makes me look fair.
Viewers online.
Six?
The three of us and her grandma.
She has new viewers!
There are no new viewers.
This "Zhao Da Handsome"
and "You're Better Than Everyone"
are obviously Zhao Youxiu.
Ladies, I'm here.
Here we are.
Let's end it here.
Over here.
Let me show you.
The ladies of Room 419
are all here today.
Say hello.
Zhao Youxiu, I know it's you.
Zhao Youxiu?
I can't believe you.
Shop until you drop.
But you can only watch my livestreams.
Be careful.
I was livestreaming for five hours.
My throat is killing me.
-Here. -I haven't had a drop of water.
Come on, drink up.
Look, it's your own fault that you quit your job
as a stylist to be a livestreamer.
I'll gladly suffer through this.
This livestreaming is just the start.
I have to catch and ride the current.
I wish for Liang Shuang
to become famous soon
and be the top beauty livestreamer.
And a wish
for Duan Jiabao's career as a great agent.
Okay.
I wish for Duan Jiabao
to establish her own agency soon.
-Yes! -My turn! I want one too.
You have a stable job.
I want one too.
Okay.
I wish Jiang Xiaoguo
a promotion, a raise,
beauty, and youth.
Most importantly,
I hope she can get married soon.
Wait, you used up all three wishes.
What about yourself?
That's right.
I'm fine, really.
I just don't want to work.
If I must get a job,
I want it to be one where I can slack off
and read and draw comics.
That wish sounds hard to fulfill.
How about this?
I'll give you back my wish.
It's okay. It's my birthday next month.
I'll grant you a wish.
Okay, when it's my birthday,
I'll grant you a wish.
-Okay. -How about this?
We'll spend every birthday together from now on
and give the last wish to someone else.
That's only if we meet up more often.
-Then let's meet up! -Meet up!
Of course.
Be there or be a loser.
-Be there or be a loser! -Be there or be a loser!
-Here, cheers! -Cheers!
LUO YAN'S BIRTHDAY 0611
All right.
Not one birthday gathering since then
has seen our full quartet.
We
all became losers,
to no one's surprise.
XIAOGUO'S BIRTHDAY 1021
DABAO'S BIRTHDAY 1204
THREE YEARS LATER
-Good morning. -Good morning.
-Good morning. -I like comics.
So under my mom's care,
I chose an official account design job.
My job is very routine.
I routinely work for three hours
and surf the net for five hours.
I routinely copy last week's job briefing,
routinely take a one-hour lunch break,
and routinely clock out at 6 p.m.
-I take the subway with my coworkers. -Bye.
- Of course, -Cheng.
I once tried to break this routine.
Are you ready?
That's right.
I'm not taking the subway today.
I got my license. I'm driving home today.
Don't wait for me.
