The video recorded the actor lying face down in the coffin, practicing before his own funeral. But before he could enjoy the high-end funeral service, the phone suddenly rang. He immediately jumped up to answer the phone, the other end of the line asked him to be present urgently to complete the job.
In fact, this is a video introducing the movie "Youth" released on December 30th. The scene left many comments from the audience, the movie humorously describes the life of middle-aged office workers, who are so tired they are about to die but still cannot rest.

Youth" features Hoac Kien Hoa, Dien Vu, Truong Tuyet Nghenh, Kieu Chan Vu, Luu Doan Doan and a cast of talented actors, bringing a rare perspective on men in the context of a female-themed film dominating the Chinese screen.
In recent years, Chinese TV series with male characters as the center accounting for less than 12% of the market. The appearance of "Youth" partly fills this gap.
The story revolves around "4 Brothers of Bao Phong Alley", spanning from the 1980s to the present. The character Ma Ding played by Huo Jianhua grew up in a small alley in Beijing with 3 close friends such as Vuong Xuan Sinh (Dien Vu), Ly Lien Bao (Kieu Chan Vu) and Dong Thu (Luu Doan Doan).
Before graduating from high school, an incident caused by Ma Dinh caused 4 people to disband, Ma Dinh left China to go abroad. Many years later, when he became Deputy General Director of a listed company, Ma Dinh suddenly contracted a brain tumor and decided to return home to resolve old grudges.

At this time, the remaining 3 people also successively faced the middle-aged crisis. Vuong Xuan Sinh was headache about his son's studies, Ly Lien Bao was fired in the wave of personnel cuts in the Internet industry, Dong Thu was under pressure to have children and was neglected by her family.
After reuniting, the 4 people started a business together, the friendship of the past gradually revived in adversity.
According to the media, Hoac Kien Hoa's role of Ma Dinh is a character with a "dramatic" life. In front of others, he is a high-ranking leader wearing a neat vest, and behind him is a brain tumor patient. This setting creates a contrasting attraction for the character.
In "Rose Story", Wallace Huo once played the role of a man with a serious illness, but the role of Ma Ding this time is much more complicated than Pho Gia Minh.
Dien Vu is widely recognized for his roles in "Khanh Du Nien", his natural humor helps the film score points. Kieu Chan Vu and Luu Doan Doan also break the old image, creating completely different roles compared to "Nu Than Long Tuyet", "Khanh Du Nien".
The key to the success of male films is to avoid exaggeration and dogmatism. "Youth" expresses difficulties through everyday details, such as the scene of Vuong Xuan Sinh skipping school with his son to eat hearts, saying bluntly: "What if you don't pass 985 (leading universities in China)? Dad selling banh xeo can still raise you".
The film combines fantasy and enthusiasm. The scene of 4 brothers jostling in a secret childhood base - an abandoned boiler room in an alley - drinking alcohol while roasting roasted chicken, reminiscent of youth, exuding the helplessness and warmth of middle age.
Ma Dinh drunkenly raised his glass: "In the past, I swore to be F4 Room Newspaper, now I am F, about to pass away, and you are 4, about to be disabled". Dien Vu burst into tears: "I'm scared! I'm afraid my son will go the wrong way, I'm afraid my wife will criticize me for being useless". These honest lines directly hit the emotions of viewers.
