Beijing, winter. After studying in the UK, where her parents are living, Zuo Yingning has returned to China to realise her dream of becoming a TV presenter. Initially she becomes a floating worker in the city, and one day gets into an argument with an aggressive young guy, Yang Dachuan, who knocks down her scooter. Taking part in a job-hunting TV show, she's offered the post of a researcher/reporter by one of the judges, and bumps again into Dachuan, who is a cameraman. The two end up together on an assignment for the programme Everyday Entertainment, covering the bitter custody battle of star Hao Chen with his ex-wife, and by chance get a scoop of Hao Chen involved in a fight outside a nightclub. Later, they cover Hao Chen's public apology, in which he admits he is not a "foreign returnee" but actually from a village in Henan, and emotionally thanks his mother. In fact, the whole incident was staged by Hao Chen's manager, George, as part of a campaign to rehabilitate the star in the public's eyes. Yingning is offered a job as a TV host by Hao Chen's management company, and she and Hao Chen become successful hosting a talent show together. Meanwhile, Dachuan thinks Yingning has sold out her principles; he's also becoming jealous of Hao Chen's attentions towards her.
