A New Life is a Chinese drama in Singapore which aired in 2005. It is about how an ordinary man and blue-collar worker manage to overcome obstacles by himself and face many challenges and difficulties in his daily life.
Zhang Youfu (Christopher Lee) is an ordinary man and blue-collar worker who stopped schooling at Secondary 2 at the age of 14 years old to join the workforce by helping his father Zhang Wancai (Yan Bingliang) in the curry chicken business and also tried working out on different jobs from different industries including a durian seller, a handmade fishball noodles seller and a massage service assistant after he completed his national service either, but unfortunately, they were all failed attempts and he ultimately returned back to cooking curry chicken at funerals. However, as he is slow-witted and clumsy, the former 2 (being the bosses of the durian and handmade fishball noodles business respectively) of his employers find his work performance wanting and thinking that he's beyond hope. However, he is optimistic by nature and does not hold a grudge. Following the death of his father Zhang Wancai because of throat cancer due to heavy smoking, the heavy burden of supporting his entire family consisting of his mother (Jin Yinji), his elder sister Zhang Zhenzhu (Carole Lin) and his elder brother Zhang Hongyun (Andrew Seow) falls squarely on his shoulder.
