drama "The First Floor in the World" tells the story of the old shopkeeper of the famous Beijing roast duck brand "Fujude" who retired from the scene due to illness, and the two young owners did not do their job properly. Fortunately, foreign aid Lu Mengshi was ordered to turn "Fujude" from losses to profits. Seeing that the business was booming, the two young proprietors were not angry at their superior achievements and vowed to compete with Lu Mengshi for the proprietor's financial rights.
Hong Kong Repertory Theater staged the play for the first time in 2022, and immediately won the three major awards of Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor at the Chinese Drama Festival.
