Shizuo, 42, is an ordinary office worker. One day, he suddenly had a whim: Lao Tzu is no longer dry, Lao Tzu wants to let go of himself and live a life without regrets!
He quit his job and lived a life of eating, drinking and having fun. Every day when I slept until I woke up naturally, I got up and played games on the tatami mat, and when I was tired, I went downstairs and wandered around.
I searched for myself for a month, and one day, he was wandering around the bookstore on the corner, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration: I want to be a cartoonist!
However, Shizuo has lived for decades, and he has not even taken a paintbrush, and the family feels that this matter is very unreliable.
Dad said: Are you sick? All this age to say such things.
Shizuo is confident: I have the keen perspective of a middle-aged man, and I want to draw 40 years of my life into a manga. This time, I'm going to come for real!
Dad was mad: You fucking mother's life has been half a life, and you used to fake it?
Shizuo found a part-time job at a fast food restaurant, working part-time during the day, staying up late at night to draw comics... If you think this is the story of an inspirational uncle overcoming a midlife crisis and angrily pursuing his dreams, you are wrong.
In fact, Shizuo's daily life is like this: every day he still sleeps until he wakes up naturally, and he still plays a few games without moving.
When someone else talked to him, he was impatient: Didn't you see me playing a particularly important game?
In the fast food restaurant has not worked enough for two months, it has become an old fritter, dozing off at work, lazy, and always making mistakes, all day long by the 20-year-old store manager: a handful of age, good work can not be?
After work, I am not in a hurry to go home, and I will make a small appointment and let the other party invite you to dinner. Fa Xiao asked curiously: Aren't you going to struggle? How can there still be time to come out and eat and drink?
He said frankly: The struggle also needs to take a break, I will not have inspiration after 2 o'clock in the evening! Only in my 40s, don't pretend to be mature, always maintain freshness, you see how dashing I live.
He also cheekily asked his 17-year-old daughter for pocket money. Dad couldn't take it anymore and said to him in a serious tone: How many years are you going to mix?
But Shizuo didn't care, still three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, he always had a reason: unsuccessful, only because I had not yet gone all out.
He was constantly rejected, constantly changing themes and painting styles, and looking forward to one day debuting. Until one day, he went to the custom shop to find happiness, but he bumped into his daughter who worked there to support his family...
This "I just haven't gone all out" is adapted from the original book of the same name by Japanese manga artist Haruhi Aono, released in Japan in 2013, douban score of 7.4, the reputation is very good...
