We notice that in this #Blogsocialdiary is rare to give you some recommendation of Mainland China's drama series. We mostly talk about the Taiwan drama series. Here, now we will post about Mainland drama series that is really enjoyable to watch. It suits to watch after you are back from work. It is so relaxing. Trust me. 


Check here to see who the casts: Litter to Glitter - DramaWiki


Litter to Glitter (pinyin read: Ran Shao Ba Fei Chai) starts the series by introducing three male casts. There are: 

Fang Tianyi, a man who runs the inn near the theatre studio. He is interested in movie directors and he wants to be a director. He is an ideal director in the town. Most of the backstage crews know his works. 

Hu Yanzu, a man who lives in the inn. Fang Tianyi doesn't want his friend to stay priceless in his place. Hu Yanzu also helps Fang Tianyi to run the inn. Hu Yanzu has a strong motive to be a professional actor. He knows that he could be an actor with his own feet. Even though, he gets so many obstacles to reach his goal. 

Yuan Zhijie is Fang Tianyi and Hu Yanzu's university's mate. Similar to the previous cast, Yuan Zhijie also has a dream to publish his own book and become a scriptwriter for it. He also stays in the inn and works there. 

Fang Tianyi, Hu Yanzu, Yuan Zhijie get some difficulties running the inn recently. There are no guests to come. So, they don't have the income to earn. It makes Fang Tianyi as the inn owner a bit down to look for the fund to pay some bills. At the same time, someone leaves a baby girl in one of the rooms in the inn. The three young males find her on the bed on the second floor. She cries, and she smiles when she sees the three men. One day, Hu Yanzu has an actor audition for a movie, and Yuan Zhijie is going to meet a client to discuss his script for a movie. Then, Fang Tianyi should take care of the baby while there is no man anymore in the house. The baby girl can be such a tie for Fang Tianyi for the entire series


After a few days later, a young woman comes to the inn and claims that she is the baby girl's mother. Initially, she only wants to keep her baby in the inn for a day while she looks for a new shelter. But, she gets unconscious outside. So, she has just come to the inn after several days of leaving her baby there. A young woman said her name is Ye Xiaoxi who gets abandoned by her husband and gets divorced. And, now she looks for a new shelter to live with her daughter. Also, she said that she needs a job. Fang Tianyi doesn't want to keep Ye Xiaoxi and her little daughter any longer since there is no room anymore in the need. Furthermore, the inn has no guests, so, they don't have any funds to pay new workers inside. But, Ye Xiaoxi shows she can do everything for the inn without expecting too much. That is the way Hu Yanzu and Yuan Zhijie let Ye Xiaoxi stay in the inn. But, Fang Tianyi still doesn't want it. So many ways to make Ye Xiaoxi difficult to solve the cases, she is good and she successes to complete them very well. Slowly, Fang Tianyi starts to let Ye Xiaoxi stay in Youth Inn as he starts to fall in love with her. However, he denies it when his friends tell it to him. 


The plot of the story is getting interesting to watch more since Fang Tianzi, a younger sister of Fang Tianzi come back to the inn from her study abroad. She studied Accounting major, but she wants to be a journalist. And, here she goes. She is on her way to pursue it. Her youth thinking and mental sometimes almost ruin her dream. Luckily, she finds a way to solve it and back to walk in her path. She has a crush on Hu Yanzu. In the early episode, both of them like to debate each other. Then, it turns into a love for each other. They support each other to get their own dream. 

Another role is coming in the series is Li Anqi. Actually, she is the ex-girlfriend of Fang Tianyi. In the early episode of the series, they were breaking up because Li Anqi found another man who she thinks is more stable than Tianyi. But, she thinks it is wrong. He lied to Anqi and run away with her money and the house which she buys by herself. Then, Li Anqi comes back to Tianyi's place since she doesn't have a shelter to live in anymore.

Ye Xiaoxi used to think she is impossible to get her another dream. She loves cooking and baking, she wants to learn more about baking. But, since she has a baby to take care of, it is impossible to leave the baby alone in the house. Fang Tianyi helps her to join a baking class and the others encourage her to take the class and they will take care of the baby while she isn't at home. Ye Xiaoxi appreciates and is thankful to the people in the inn. She joins the class. Some hilarious scenes appear due to jealousy of Tianyi to Xiaoxi's mentor in the class. One day, Tianyi thinks to ruin their group picnic. Not only that, Tianyi likes to give a difficult time to her mentor when there are only both of them in the room. 

While Ye Xiaoxi is busy joining the baking class, Fang Tianyi struggles hard to convince some producers to have a look and being a benefactor of his movie he has prepared so well. Fang Tianyi's work plans are so idealistic. So, some producers can't approve it because of marketing strategy reasons. It is not a time for Tianyi for giving up easily. He works for his passion and he will be always by his project. Luckily, the people in the inn is being supportive of him. They back up each other. 







For the fact, Hu Yanzu is the real son of a well-known actor in China. His father ever gave him an offer to play in a movie because his father is a friend of the movie director. The offers from his dad don't come twice or third times, but, most of the time they discussed Hu Yanzu's carrier as an actor. It leads ways Hu Yanzu doesn't stay with his dad in their own house. Hu Yanzu chooses to stay with his friends in the inn and starts to play a small role in every movie he gets in. 

Patience grows a beautiful impact. From some small roles which Hu Yanzu plays so well finally, it makes Yanzu has a chance to have a main role in a movie. On the stage, Yanzu becomes more famous than previous. His work is managed by an agent who has a strict rule for him. Yanzi thinks it is too over for him, but, his agent said all they have done is for his sake. Yanzu has to follow the rule. Also, at the time Yanzu should choose one between his next carrier path and his girlfriend who thinks Yanzu has changed and she misses their time together. 



She is Hu Yanzu's crush and slowly becomes his girlfriend. Her name is Fang Tianzi. And, she is Fan Tianyi's younger sister who likes Yanzu. Once Tianyi doesn't like to mention Yanzu as his sister's boyfriend. Tianyi and Yanzu have a fight because of it. Then, later Tianyi knows that the one can keep his sister's happiness in Yanzu. Tianyi gives his blessing to them. 

Fang Tianzi has just graduated from Accounting Major at an overseas university. Everyone hopes she would work as an Accountant in a company. Tianzi has her personal way to go. She applies for so many jobs as a Reporter since she is interested in journalism. She wants to be a News Reporter. But, the first job she gets is as an Entertainment Reporter who should look for the hottest gossip of an actor's matchmaking from his parents. 

When Hu Yanzu's popularity is getting bigger, Tianzi feels depressed and misses their quality time just like before Yanzu gets the main role in a movie. Furthermore, Yanzu and Tianzi can't make confirm their relationship due to Yanzu is being set up with his coworker, a beautiful actress as the main female role in their movie.  



Fang Tianzi knows Hu Yanzu never forget their relationship and the friendship with the people in the inn. It proves when Hu Yanzu participates in a quiz show. He can answer all of the questions and escape himself from the punishment on the stage. But, he loses his streak in the last question which relates to his best friend's work who gets plagiarism from a popular producer of the publisher. 

It is a huge matter of Yuan Zhijie that finally brings his mind down to face it. He works so hard on the book. When it comes to finding a suitable place to publish, the producer wants to publish it under another writer's name who is more popular than Zhijie. With Li Anqie, who has he aids to solve her financial and trust matter previously, and Yanzu's confirmation in the media, he plans to fight back his right for his book. 

Li Anqie is a young woman who has a strong character. She got the emotional temperament from her family background. She is the first character who got desperate in the series. She leaves Tianyi because of another man who looks more stable than Tianyi. But, that is all fake things. The man is run away with her money and house. He leaves Li Anqie with nothing to have. Luckily, she still has a group of friend who is willing support her in any way. Because she doesn't want to back to her hometown where her parents and brother live. She doesn't want to be a successor to a family martial arts school there. She tried to make a video, but she failed. She even got some hating comments from their viewers. Then, she runs out of money and she decides to do her preloved things on the internet. Finally, she knows herself. She has a passion for designing clothing. But, she fails again. Her target selling isn't increasing significantly in some periods. 

Her friends encourage her to build up again her confidence level and re-start her own business. No matter she has experienced it before, she still has a home to the back. It is the inn and the people inside it. They are willing to help Anqie. And, she gets full support and runs a business together with Zhijie. 





Litter to Glitter is a drama series from Mainland China that has a super light plot story to watch. We highly recommended you watch it when you are tired of your daily work. The drama is super relaxing. But, it has a very meaningful moral on it. 

Fang Tianyi, Hu Yanzu, and Yuan Zhijie tell us not to give up easily until we get what we aim for. Any chance relate to our dream, don't dare to leave it behind. It surely will lead you to your goal. 

Ye Xiaoxi and Li Anqie confirm that we should have faith in ourselves and our surroundings. When you don't have any place to back, don't have anyone to talk with about your dream, just look at your behind again, maybe you miss someone who is still there to always support you.

Also,  Fang Tianzi makes us realized when we have known and trust someone for a long time, keep believing in him, and do not listen to the minority voice about him. You more know about him than anybody else.
