八字 还 没 有 一撇 呢。
Something is far from assured/in the middle of nowhere.
"八字" means the Chinese character of "八"; "还没有一撇呢" means not yet. This phrase originally refers to the marriage between a man and a women. If the two days they were born matches each others, then their marriage is probably gonna be blessed; otherwise not. To this day, this phrase usually means something is far from assured or still in the middle of nowhere.
