After graduating from university, Wan Guopeng (played by Wan Guopeng), who dreamed of becoming an actor, left his hometown alone and went to the famous Hengdian, Zhejiang, hoping to create a world of his own here. However, the reality is much more cruel than imagined. In this world where the weak are the prey of the strong, it is far from enough to have a passion for dreams. After experiencing countless setbacks and failures, Wan Guopeng finally made a name for himself and became a professional crowd actor. In Hengdian, Wan Guopeng met countless young people who were very similar to him. Some of them eventually succeeded and realized their dreams, some went astray and their lives were ruined, but more of them gave up their dreams after going through untold hardships and returned to a dull life. By chance, Wan Guopeng met a girl named Wang Ting (played by Wang Ting), who seemed like a beam of light, illuminating Wan Guopeng's way forward.
