Yin Ruijuan!

Let's go

- What's on?

- Daredevil Garrison, I think

Daredevil Garrison?

- Supposed to be good

- War film?

Come on, Zhang Jun

You weren't asking me

Shut up and come along

Quick!

Come!

Cui Mingliang

Come on, Eryong

Are you sick?

Still taking the works bus home?

- Any plans tonight?

- Yes

- You had a perm

- Yes

Looks good!

I'll be going, then

- You go ahead!

- Okay

Go on, Xu is waiting for us

You were taking your time with her

I had to let her finish

Plenty to say to her, but not to me

- We see each other every day!

- So?

Come on

You're angry again

No, I'm not

What's upsetting you?

You are... all your socialising

with girls

We all have pasts, you know

Is that wrong?

Didn't someone say you should love

a person completely...

...including his past?

- Who said that?

- Who?

A friend... Pushkin

He thinks I should love

that girl Han too?

Maybe you can leave that to me

I'll beat you to death!

We'll meet again in twenty years

How beautiful

our great Motherland will be

The sky is new, the earth is new

City and village alike will glow

Young friends,

this spring will be yours

Yours and mine

The new generation of the 1980s!

The new generation of the 1980s!

We'll meet again in twenty years...

With 8 or 9 wives

and hordes of kids!

Settle down, everyone

We need to talk

Zhang Jun, stand up

Sing us Young Friends Gather

I'm no vocalist

Never mind, sing it

Young friends gathering today

Rowing little boats

n the bright spring...

That's enough!

Quiet!

What were you singing in the truck?

I wasn't leading it

No? I heard you!

You were the loudest

What was it?

Is this a punishment?

Calm down, our priority is unity!

Unity?

I heard it was you

- I don't know

- Don't know?

- Who else then?

- Don't know

Me

You again?

Okay, sing it for us

We'll meet again in twenty years

With 8 or 9 wives

and hordes of kids

Stop! What are you singing?

When is twenty years from now?

Where will our country be by then?

The 4 Modernisations: Industry,

Agriculture, Defence and Science

And what are your goals?

Several wives, hordes of kids?

We practice monogamy

Several wives?

Like landowners before Liberation?

You think you could handle that?

And hordes of kids?

We practice family planning...

heard of birth control?

It's just a song

Where's your discipline?

Yes, there's the Open Door policy

But reforms are still needed

Think about it

Okay, I'll reform

"Long live birth control!

"One child's enough!

"Long live birth control!

"One child's enough!"

Come on in

- What's wrong?

- Forget it

Don't want a perm after all?

It'll look good

What if it doesn't?

It will! Do it for me!

Come on, if Han dares to...

- Say that again!

- No, no

- Anybody there?

- No

Boss, where are you from?

- The south

- Where?

Wenzhou

Far from Guangzhou?

Around 400 km

That far!

You want to go south?

Yeah, my Auntie lives there

- It's nice there

- Really?

Can you turn it off now?

Be patient, perms take time

- I don't want curls

- It'll look great

Really

You'll look just like that poster

Quiet!

The agenda is programme reform

We'll introduce some pop music

We've invited someone from town

to guide us

Maybe some of you don't like it

But it's been popular in the cities

for a while

and there have been

heated debates there

My feeling is...

...pop music is relaxing and...

What?

Nothing

I see Zhong Ping has a perm

Very up-to-date

She looks like a Spanish girl!

She could dance flamenco!

It would look great!

The 5th National Assembly

announces the rehabilitation...

...of Comrade Liu Shaoqi

The Party resolves to return

to the bases of Mao Zedong Thought

under the flag of Mao Zedung Thought

Onward to final victory!

Honour to Comrade Liu Shaoqi!

"Following the same trail,

leading to the tree...

"The morning sun lights my face

and the leafy branches

"Dear companion, dear tree!

"Spring stream on the border

"Clear and pure

"Songs of the border...

"... warm the heart...

"The harbour nights...

"... are so peaceful

"Waves gently rock the battleship"

Zhong Ping!

You know who's being charged?

- Who?

- Piggy

- What did he get?

- Death penalty!

His mother must be sad

Serves him right!

One less scumbag, who cares?

- Many watching?

- Lots

It was packed

I was just passing by

Nearly finished?

- Too big?

- About right

I taught you to cross-stitch!

It's too hard to do

This is out of fashion, you know

Never mind

I'm always wrong

Did you see him die?

No

I don't know where they do it

The police shoot them from behind

Their brains must splash out...

Don't! It's gross!

Everyone watches

What's up?

You're smoking?

- No thanks

- Try one

Won't your father be angry?

He's out at work

- Okay?

- Fine

Are you choking?

I think Lai has a crush on you

Me? He fancies you!

No way!

Lai is very choosy

Yes, but that post-office girl

dumped him

Who dumped who?

She dumped him!

- I didn't know

- Six months ago!

No-one's better than Zhang Jun

Think so?

Then you can have him

I wouldn't dare

What do you think he's doing now?

Probably thinking of you

Not necessarily

I'm not thinking of him!

You have tears in your eyes!

That's smoke

You've made up your eyebrows!

For Zhang Jun? It looks awful!

No it doesn't

It's the latest style

- Awful!

- No, it's not

Don't do mine!

Stop it! It looks awful.

Shut up!

- Mine look awful?

- Yes!

Take care!

Will you shut up?

This will make you look

so fashionable

Who cares? That's enough

Don't move! Just a moment...

Hang on...

Wait till I've finished

It hurts! Mind your cigarette!

Been with her all afternoon?

Just chatting

About me?

A bit

Saying what?

Good things

That's fine

Zhong Ping's been strange lately

Why? Because of Zhang Jun?

Don't think so

She'll be okay

What do you know?

- What don't I know?

- You think you know it all

Someone asked me yesterday...

...whether you're my girlfriend

Are you?

Why are people so nosy?

I want to know too

I don't know

Oh, there's some post for you

For me?

By the window

Mingliang:
the outside world

is great! Zhang Jun, in Guangzhou

We're so happy on vacation

n the countryside with friends

Light rain is falling...

, Zhang Di, am always asked...

...if Taiwan girls are better than

Singapore girls

Mingliang!

Stop! Foreign devil!

- Doing well now?

- When did you get back?

This afternoon

So soon?

You bought a tape player?

- Who's that?

- Zhang Di

Who?

He's very popular

More than Teresa Teng

Let me see

How's the big, wide world?

Pretty good

Come on, tell me about it

Everyone's busy all day

Zhang Jun!

You're back!

How are you doing?

How's southern food?

Okay... the food here's better

Zhong Ping!

Can I hear it?

How do you open it?

Careful, don't break it!

The sandstorm blows, but we sing on

We friends have no cares

n the world

Our cattle and horses are strong

We sit proud in the saddle

We warm the world with our light!

Gen... Gen... Genghis Khan
