Du Xin enjoys people calling him Gunther in his Friends' cafe, which is a re-creation of Central Perk from the formerly popular TV show Friends. He calls his waitresses Rachel, all college students. He thinks of Friends' cafe as his dream, not a business, worthy of half-year's preparation to make it exactly like the scenes from the TV show.

At the beginning no one shows up at his Central Perk, because it's located on the sixth floor of a quiet building. But screams of six high school students coming from outside the window broke the silence. His customers there are all good friends now. And Du Xin keeps dreaming of running the shop forever, waiting for his old customers to be back and find their memories on his picture wall.
