Episode 1

Fan Shu Chen, Shi Wei Cong, Yang Yan and Xuan Li are high school best friends.  They used to play superheroes, where Shu Chen is Batman.

Shu Chen never grew up from his Batman complex and still looks after his three friends, especially Shi Wei Cong, who now works together at a PR Agency.

Shi Wei Cong is a genius but lacks real motivation.  If allowed he would spend the whole day in the toilet reading his manga.

Shu Chen would often cover for him.

Anyway, the agency is currently in a bit of chaos as customers are up in arms with the service they were receiving.

Once again it was left to Shu Chen to sort everything out but in the middle of this in walked a new trainee/employee who was very pleasing to the eye.  Even Shu Chen noticed her immediately.

Aside from comics, Wei Cong’s attention is also taken by a very demanding girlfriend who wanted her name put in the house deed owned by his parents even before the wedding.

Of course, the parents said no and rightly so.  Wei Cong’s fiancee was not amused and took her ire out of Wei Cong.  She was not only brutal verbally towards him but gave him a good slapping as well.  Hmmm

Seeing that Wei Cong is otherwise engaged with other things, Shu Chen arranged that a backup plan is made for Wei Cong’s annual pet project, the Beer Festival.

Wei Cong was not grateful at all, he went mental.

Episode 2

This time the group wanted to continue handling the Chen Yu cosmetics but the heiress of the cosmetic empire had left the management to her husband while she looks after their ailing child.

The husband has tried to change the ads agency but thank goodness the wife came back after finding out that her husband was a philanderer.

Comments

  1. There seem to be 2 shows with similar name.one is about high schoolers& the other concerning grown adults in corporate world.dont know why the name is chosen.the story was so disjointed&boring.i pretty much fast forward from episode 18-the end. Literally nothing interesting happened.

    1. Thanks for your comment. I have to admit that I dropped the corporate version one because strangely I found the lead actress so pretty; this did not exactly repel me but I sort of lost interest but really meant to pick it up again because of the lead actor.

      However, there were just too many other dramas and it became a case of so little time. LOL
