Try something like this

sourcetype="AAA"|table _time event_id user | eval Time=strftime(_time,"%m/%d/%Y %H:%M") | chart values(TIme) over user by event_id limit=0

It works, great! Thanks a lot!
And, now I am hoping to make it better by adding a column, is it possible?

Originally:

9/10/2015 23:24 303 user1 info1
9/10/2015 21:50 302 user1 info1
9/10/2015 21:50 303 user2 info2
9/10/2015 21:50 302 user2 info2
9/10/2015 11:21 303 user3 info3
9/10/2015 11:18 302 user3 info3

I hope to see:

User info Time_302 Time_303
user1 info1 9/10/2015 21:50 9/10/2015 23:24
user2 info2 9/10/2015 21:50 9/10/2015 21:50
user3 info3 9/10/2015 11:18 9/10/2015 11:21

Thanks, but the results are like this:

User | Time_302 | Time_303
user1 | 9/10/2015 21:50 | 9/10/2015 21:50
| | 9/10/2015 23:24

Time_302 value were shown on both columns.

This could be due to a user has more than 1 event with an event_id. If there are multiple events for an event_id and you want the latest Time of it, they replace "| chart values" with "| chart latest"
