Features: Liu Xiaoyou, a graduate from an art college, came to the capital with a deep childhood admiration for Beijing to seek opportunities and worked at an advertising company. In a year, events like renting an apartment, job hunting, and dating all collided and formed the backdrop of his life. When spring arrived, Xiaoyou lost his lover Xu Qing and suddenly realized he had fallen in love with Beijing again. On a summer morning in 2002, the young man from the provinces, Liu Xiaoyou, sat on Tiananmen Square, facing the Tiananmen Gate. He watched the motor vehicles and bicycles moving below Mao Zedong's chin with no sense of urgency, yet in a calm and orderly manner. Their calmness seemed to say, "This is mine, this city is mine." Their orderliness seemed to say, "Since it's mine, what's there to hurry about?" This time, Xiaoyou had come to Beijing for Beijing.
