"Mediocre and cramped, we desperately dress up as someone in our longings."
Whether it is anime or manga or film and television drama works with Japanese campus themes, whether it is to get the national championship of so-and-so competition, whether there is a fight to hit the graduation ceremony, whether the earth will be successfully saved... Whether it is realistic or fantasy, it seems that the youth on campus always comes to an abrupt end in the right direction. Using a somewhat cheesy analogy, we all know that fairy tales also like to end with the most satisfying moments, but after this? Dreamers may find the trivial routine of tearing off their masks incredible.
Unfortunately, most of you are ordinary people.
For most ordinary people who follow the steps, those hurdles that can be called real physical and mental exhaustion, probably the process of transforming into social people is a period that is neither a big deal nor can be avoided, and it was a period when I felt that I could not see the end and looked back and laughed at myself as mentally retarded. Asai Liao's "Who" tells the story of the group portrait at this point in time.
* Asai Liao

Although Asai Liao's writing path began as a student, after graduation, he first became a member of the rookie club through inauguration activities, during which he wrote part-time and wrote immediately when he returned home from work. "What" not only comes from Asai Liao's personal experience, but also from this period.
What kind of story is "What" tells, to put it simply, when the serious and improper friends have found a way out, the remaining "I", Tuoren, the heart began to fluctuate. As a person who has actually been a few years away from the identity of a fresh graduate, why would you want to recommend such a book is also a little other reason, after all, it is too unreasonable to think that this book is an inspirational chicken soup for job-seeking students, and Naoki reward is not issued in this way.
Takumi, a college student who is about to face the graduation job search season, discusses job search strategies with several friends. But Tuoren is gradually bound by more confusion and confusion: what does a short self-introduction of one or two hundred words on the resume represent? Seemingly warm messages on social networks just to keep each other warm? They are all about to graduate from college, why are the classmates around them still engaged in those who have not? Takuto did not know the answer, only to find that the friends of the same window who had nothing to talk about in the past had embarked on the road of drifting away from each other. And he is also more and more confused, the person who cobbled together the gorgeous words on the resume, who is it? ”
Since it is said to be a group portrait, in addition to Takuto, who is a well-known member of the drama troupe in the university, there are other people.
Kotaro, the lead singer of the campus band, welcomes the fun band to compete on the same stage.
Ruiyue, who returned from studying abroad, wants to meet friends who have studied abroad and are also looking for a job.
Li Xiang, who has done various international volunteers, wants to take the world as the working stage.
Longliang, who wrote a column during his suspension, believes that encountering people is spiritual food.
As well as Silver, who only appears on Twitter and specializes in drama performances, he wants to present performances that no one can imagine.
So who are these beautiful-looking people?

"My flaw is that it's ugly."
The person who said this sentence in the book was sensitive and unwilling to lose, and seeing the powerful person involuntarily had a little dark and dismissive careful thinking.
The really important things are certainly not going to be written about on Twitter, FAcebook. Sincere talk cannot be satisfied just by sending a reply on the app. But people will always put on another face on the Internet to show people, and unconsciously they will be separated from their real selves. "You're not like that on Twitter, people will look at you with their own words. The only thing that can always remain on it is the vibrant Twitter avatar.
---------------------------------------------------------------------- As long as you keep thinking about who you want to show yourself to, you will never become a character.
- You haven't actually oiled anyone at all. The smooth sailing of others will make you feel particularly boring, right? You want everyone to be less fortunate than you, so that you can become an observer yourself.
"The advantage is that you dare to admit that you are ugly."
Yes, you who decided to open "Who" are also such ugly people.
