"He gave one of his ears and eyes to others helping them." "Looks shabby." "People will repair it." "I can't figure out why you like to come here... and watch all this." "Is it so special?" "To me all Buddhas look the same." "When I was a bus driver for the travel agency," "I used to come here a lot," "But I never went in." "Now that we are here." "I want to look around a bit more." "I am only worried about your job." "(Marriage Registration Office)" "Damn it." "Where did the stamp go?" "Lao Li." "Good Morning, Chief." "Here is your boy." "Thank you." "Educate him well after this." "Yes." "Thank you very much." "Are you retired?" "Yeah..." "Well, I will retire soon too." "You got to find me a job then." "Sure." "Okay." "Goodbye." "Jianjun, would you bring Hong to dinner tonight?" "OK." "We got to have a talk with them." "A reasonable talk." "Hungry?" "Sorry." "They are all here." "I didn't have time to cook." "Look!" "Hong is on the newspaper." "(the factory is trying its best to help... ) (... all the layed-off workers to be re-employed.)" "Xiue." "Can you call Jianjun?" "And ask why they're still not here?" "OK." "Don't answer it." "Your factory will hold the meeting tomorrow, right?" "Yeah." " I'll drive you there." " Don't bother." "I'll go myself." "It's too far." "Please, don't make trouble tomorrow." "I can afford our living." "If anything happened to you..." "Our life would be a mess." "Lao Li, Jianjun didn't answer it." "He must be busy." "It's not an easy job." "Well..." "You two have first." "Let's have dinner together." "Jianjun..." "He's a good boy." "When he was a little boy..." "I took him to our station once." "But I was suddenly assigned a mission." "When I came back at night..." "He was still there in the office." "Even didn't step out of the door." "Jianjun is really a good boy." "Once he saw me beat someone." "It was a hooligan." "It scared him badly." "That evening..." "He was crying all the way back home." "I never hit him" "His Mom did few times." "Dear comrades, I'm glad to let you know that..." "To those who we had to lay off... we will pay an extra 3000 Yuan to each of you." "3000 Yuan?" "Don't fool us!" "May I have your attention, please?" "Please!" "We've worked together for a long time." "We're all working class and shall understand each other." "Hong!" "Hong!" "You're supposed to give us support and understanding." "Hong, you have set a good example." "Please come and get the money." "It has not been easy for us to come up with this money." "We appreciate your support for the restructuring of the factory." "Lei, where are you going?" "I'm not going anywhere." "What's wrong?" "Where on earth are you going?" "My boy..." "Mom is not forbidding you to go out." "I'm just afraid that..." "You are going to be with those hooligans." "Mom is afraid." "You're just a kid." "I know it was all their fault." "They've ruined you." "The horrible ideas were not yours... were they?" "They have pushed you to do it." "Right?" "Talk to me!" "Open the door!" "Sun Xiao Hong!" "Why did you do that!" "We had planned it so well." "Why did you accept the money?" "You betrayed us!" "You..." "One, two, three, four." "One, two, three, four." "One, two, three, four." "You got to keep yourself strong." "Or you could never seize a thief." "Consulting fee?"

"Please pay the fee. 21.6 Yuan." "Had you come later, we'd have sent it back." "What is it?" "How would I know?" "(to Lao Li)" "Lei is missing." "I can't find him." "Lao Li, please call someone to find him." "Make a phone call, please." "Xiue." "Calm down." "Don't worry." "His friends are still in custody." "He'll be back when he gets bored." "As we've talked about this morning..." "I am taking him to work tomorrow." "I shouldn't have gone to Xinjiang to teach for the one year." "Think of yourself, please." "When I got back, he..." "Don't blame yourself." "I shouldn't have left." "He was too young." "I should have stayed with him." "Lei, why did you go out?" "You hanged out with your gangs again?" "I didn't." "I just strolled around." "Strolled around?" "For what?" "Grandma." "Grandma." "Zhang called me last night." "He wants me to sell mattresses with him." "I don't feel like staying home anymore." "Which Zhang?" "Our team leader in the factory." "Around the corner, he stares at the building." "It has eight floors." "The staircase to each floor has eight steps." "Eight by eight, it's sixty-four steps." "He runs up... and gets to the door in no minutes." "He puts his ear at it." "He is fuming furious." "He kicks the door open... and rushes inside..." "Jianjun." "Jianjun, wait here, OK?" "OK." "Let's go, Lei." "(Ropeway Station)" " Lin!" "M ind your steps!" " Oh!" "Wang, thank you for letting him work here." "You're welcome." "We've known each other for years." "I want to help you out." "Lei, come here." "This is my friend, Director Wang." " Qian Xue, please come here." " Yes." "He's new here." "Tell him what he has to do." "Boy, you follow her." "It's difficult to find a job nowadays." "Behave for the sake of yourself, Lei." " Lin!" "M ind your steps!" " OK." "Wind is strong by the river." "What are you reading?" "Where do you hang out at night?" "Nowhere." "Are you from Wushan?" "No, Fengdu." "I don't know my way around." "I'm afraid of getting lost." "I take you out after duty today." "We will miss our dearests forever." "And they will be there with us" "Now, Mr. Li, please." "Slow down, please." "Where are we heading to?" "Chao Tian Men?" "We'll be there soon." "Oh." "Do me a favor, make a phone-call for me." "Then I'm taking you to Chao Tian Men." "What's this?" "Say the words on the paper, in Mandarin." "Well, just in Chongqing dialect." "Then we're going to Chao Tian Men." "I can speak Mandarin!" "Hello, Madam." "This is Feng's supervisor." "Our teacher asked me to see why he hasn't come to school." "Oh... the homework still needs to be done." "Thank you, madam." "May I talk to him?" "Ok." "Feng, listen to me!" "It was not me." "I have nothing to do with my used-to-be-police step-father." "I go first." "Why didn't you call me to go out?" "My parents wouldn't let me." "Bullshit." "Say it again!" "They would hit me." "Say it again!" "Big Man will be out in three months." "Let's get together then." "They won't see you as a partner anymore." "What'd you say!" "They said it was you who put everybody into this." "It's too late." "Let me walk you home." "We are going to Chao Tian Men tomorrow." "Fuck!" " Look out." " Look out." "Slant it a little bit." "A bit more." "Great." " Please have a seat." " Thank you." "Here you are." " Have a seat, please." " OK." "Hong." "From tomorrow on, I'm not going to sell mattresses anymore." "I'm not able to get mattresses from the company on credit." "I have no idea when I could I get paid." "Hong." "I even don't have the money... to pay your salary for this month." "So please take this mattress instead." "Lean it on the wall!" "Hong, you must be tired." "Have some good rest." "I..." "I'm leaving." "Where can I find Zhang?" " Where is your Dad?" " I don't know!" "Sir, actually you don't have to measure the grave yourself." "It has been measured by professionals." "You can trust us." "I just want to make sure." "It's been measured carefully." "I ensure you the size is accurate." "Jianjun." "I'm looking for a grave... that can let us stay together..." "Including Hong." "Can you pull the car over?" "Give me a cigarette." "Mom passed away, right?" "Three years ago, Mom began writing to me often." "But I never replied." "Half a year ago..." "I got her last letter." "She said she'd taken a serious surgery." "After that, I never heard from her again." "Why it's not clear?" "It's beautiful." "I see a big ship." "That's my Dad's ship." "He's the First Mate." "Don't know whether he's aboard now." " Really?" "Let's go and check out." " No." "I'm afraid of him." "He used to hit me a lot." "You've been in prison?" "Yes, how'd you know?" "Director Wang, he told me the other day." "You're not afraid?" "Who's that?" "Me, Jianjun." "Is my Dad in?" "Can I look for something?" "(..." "Heilongjiang Province)" "Jianjun?" "Juan?" "What does she do now?" "She has her own beauty saloon." "Really!" "Wow... unimaginable." "Do you remember Yang Dong?" "What does he do now?" "Yang Dong..." "He's running his own motorbike factory." "Really!" "His own factory?" " Yeah, we can get together with him some time." " Sure." "Jianjun, you take your time." "I'm going back first." "No hurry." "I could drive you back later." "Fine." "Duoduo." "Have some vegetable, boy." "Say thank you, Duoduo." "Juan is going to Chengdu soon." "Her husband died few months ago." "She came here today, and wanted to know why I broke up with her and why I married you instead." "Mom is back" "After all these fifteen years she's finally back." "Mom is dead." "Dad didn't say anything, but I know..." "He's in great sorrow." "I am too." "Juan is too pretty." "Just as Mom." "So I couldn't marry her." "Big Man, you're finally out!" "It was not me!" "I swear!" "I didn't sell you out!" "Not me!" " Not me!" " Lei, what happened!" "Jianjun." "What are you doing?" "I'm going to Heilongjiang Province." "The bankbook is on the table." "You know the password." "I've asked Teng to drive the taxi for me." "Please don't look for jobs blindly, OK?" "I know." "If Dad asks, ...tell him I went to Guizhou." "Are you really going to Heilongjiang?" "If not for me, you should think it over for your Mom." "I'm not going back." "That's bullshit!" "I'll call your Mom to come here tomorrow." "Whatever." "I've told you I'm not going back." "Then pay the debt!" "What's wrong?" "Why are you crying?" "Lei." "I'm going back to Fengdu soon." "Tell that girl, Big Sister is waiting for her in the lady's room." " Why?" " Just do it." "Big Sister is waiting for you in the lady's room." "Don't move!" "Where is the Big Sister?" "I don't know." "Cut the craps!" " I really don't know!" " Don't move!" "We've been watching you!" "Don't move!" "Don't look back!" "Who was the woman talking to you the other day?" "Your aunt?" "My relative." "She wants money from you?" "Take it." "Lei, what did you do?" "Where is the money from?" "Let's go." "I want to go home." "Give it to me." "Dad." "You went to grocery?" "Let's go inside." "Here's fine." " Waiting for Jianjun?" " Yeah." "He's not in." "Where is he?" "He said he went to Guizhou." "When will he be back?" "A month or so." "I'll have him call you." "OK..." "I'll get you matches." "Haven't you quitted smoking already?" "Do you remember the murder which shocked the whole country took place in Chongqing seven years ago?" "The office demanded us to crack the case in 72 hours." "So I kept watching near his home for three whole days and had 172 cigarettes." "172!" "Did he come home?" "Who?" "The murderer." "No." "He was shot in resistance." "Oh." "Our factory is going to be pulled down soon." "Here we are holding this ball to express our thankfulness... for all of your hard work and your support for this change." "You work in this factory?" "No." "May I dance with you?" "Look at me, I'm old." "Do you really like me?" "Come home with me?" "No one is there now." "Someday, would you run away with someone you love and leave behind your husband and kid?" "You freak!" "Lao Li, don't drink too much." "It's fine." "Finally all of us are here." "I am just happy." "Jianjun, cheers!" "He has to drive." "Help yourself." " Dad, have some pork." " OK." "Dad." "What's wrong?" "Jianjun, I'm just happy." "I shouldn't have let your Mom leave." "Jianjun." "You've had enough." "Alright" "All these years our lives have been fine." "Yes, fine." "Mom, I got to go." "Night duty today." " Lei, behave yourself at work." " I know." "Wait a second." "I'll drive you there." "Hong, what's going on?" "You threw up?" "I'm fine." "As soon as he gets home he just feels paralyzed." "How could he satisfy his wife?" "What a coincidence!" "My next door neighbor the couple quarrels every day." "You can guess for what." "But what can he do?" "As the factory reformed he now is working for a private company." "Everyday he is exhausted." "When he is back at home, his wife is horny and says "honey, it's been a long time that we don't do that do you want me to do that with you tonight?"" ""Well, baby I gotta get up early." "I promise you, tomorrow."" "When this happens again and again his wife starts feeling uncomfortable." "Forget about it." "I'll come myself tomorrow." "The baby may not be yours." "I should come by myself." "Hong." "I've told you." "We are keeping this baby." "Doctor, why it takes so long?" "It's false pregnancy." "But it seems her uterus has some problem." "The test result comes out next week." " Not until next week?" " Yes." " Thank you." " You're welcome." "The doctor said, it's false pregnancy." "Spirit up!" "Straight." "It's for your mother, right?" "That one is indeed not good." "Would you like to have a look at the south side?" "The Fengshui is great there." "And it's in a bigger size besides, it's by the river." "The CEO of..." "I forget which company." "He intered his father there." "And..." "How much?" "300000" "But I can give you a 10% discount." "Only 270,000." "Oh." "I guess we don't need to see it." "Qian Xue!" "Qian Xue!" "Still hate me?" "We've found out the real betrayer." "Not you." "Did it hurt badly?" "Cigarette?" "I have to go back to work." "Work?" "Got a girlfriend, don't you?" "Let us meet her some day." "I can't remember the title of the movie." "Couple of guys with masks, like this and rush in with their huge guns." " This Huge." " They are small." "I say huge then they are huge." "Huge?" "They are small." " Come here!" " Come on!" "Jump over!" "Don't be a turkey!" "Lei." "Where have you been today?" "Director Wang got really mad." "Why are you here?" "How do you know I live here?" "I asked Director Wang." "He didn't know the exact address." "I found it myself." "Where have you been the whole day?" "I'll bring you home." "Don't come here anymore." "Let's go." "My Mom came." "She asked me to go with that woman, back to Fengdu." "So I come to you." "You drank?" "Just a little." "I'm fine." "I was not allowed to go to work today." "They are taking me back tomorrow." "I sneaked out." "They didn't find out." "Let me take you home." "Don't bother!" "I know the way back!" "So far we think she has cancer of the uterus." "But we don't know the level yet." "The best way is to have a hysterectomy." "And the sooner, the better." "Is it confirmed?" "90%." "But still you can go to other hospitals," "And see what the doctors say." " Thank you." " You're welcome." "She has labor insurance, right?" "No, her factory is bankrupted." "Hong." "Let's go." " Let me have a look." " You won't understand it." "Let's go." "The doctor suggested we should go to another hospital." "There is a patch of graveyard on the lawn." "It's fairly cheap." "Here it is." "What do you think?" "It's good." "Would you please prepare the contract?" "I'll pay the advance soon." "Great." "Dad, may I give you back the money of the taxi next year?" "Hong is taken ill." "She's in the hospital." "She's too chubby." "Obesity causes illness." "Do you remember when you were young..." "I always took you to Uncle Yang's home with me?" "Once there were few drunk guys fighting with each other." "We tried to stop it." "But one of them came straight me, and wanted to stab me with his coutel." "It was Yang who blocked his way and got stabbed for me." "Xiue." "There's something I don't know how to tell you." "I Know." "LaoLi." "You don't need to say it." "We've known each other for two years." "How do you feel about us?" "Besides Lei everything else is fine." "There's something that I didn't talk about with you because I don't know how to say it." "I want to buy a grave." "Of course." "Of course." "Listen to me." "Don't be nervous." "Xiue." "I don't know why she left without a word." "The only things she left are the books." "These were her favorite." "But she didn't take any of them with her." "Lao Li." "I can't remember when everything changed." "Lao Zhao used to be a nice man." "And he was sweet to me." "Only he loved drinking." "Once he had too much and caused an accident." "He hit another ship." "Two men died." "The accident locked him on the position of First Mate." "He drunk more and more after that." "Every time he got drunk he beat me and Lei." "Good morning." "How do you feel today?" "I... feel nothing wrong." "Let me check." "Does it hurt here?" "And here?" "Yes here." "And here?" "Are you afraid?" "Put the money back." "Lei!" "Don't go." "Lei!" "You can't be with the gangs again." "They ruined you!" "Mom, listen!" "Those were all my ideas." "The blackmail was also my idea." "May I speak to Hong, please?" "Not there?" "OK..." "I'll be home right away." "She must have gone back home." "OK." "Thank you." "Jianjun, you're back." "Let's go." "Now." "I'm not going back." "I'm fine, absolutely fine." "I always follow your decision." "I won't this time." "Stop grouching, please." "Let's go back." "It's for your own good." "You will have the surgery in two weeks." "The doctor has told us, it is not dangerous." "I don't trust you anymore." "I've followed all of your decisions!" "I shouldn't have married you!" "Why did you choose me!" "Because I'm simple and stupid?" "In this marriage, I have never had my own choice." "No baby. "Don't make trouble"." "You've never felt this is your home." "You've never let me know what's on your mind." "No one ever knows what's on your mind!" "It was you you told me to accept the 3000 Yuan." "Fine." "None of them talk to me anymore!" "I'm not going anywhere!" "I'll just wait for my last day here." "Get out!" "Xiue." "It's fine." "Only one or two thousand." "Just think it as my salary for few months." "When the money used up, He will be back." "(Fengdu)" "Wake you ass up." "That's her." "How much for a take-out?" "Well, generally they don't do that..." "But if you..." "Fine." "Thank you." "Boss, where are we going?" "We can't do it here." "Qian Xue." "I am here." "Look, I have money now." "So you robbed a bank?" "Yeah." "You don't believe?" "We rushed in with huge guns." "Hong." "Let's go to the hospital today, okay?" "Jianjun, the operation will cost a lot." "I will take care of that." "I've talked with Dad." "We'll pay him back the money next year." "If not enough, I will borrow the rest." "We are gathering here for you, Ms. Chao Ms. Sun Xiao Hong." "Your dearests have found this most beautiful place for you." "Wish you rest in peace." "Please take three bowls." "One." "Two." "Three." "Please place the cinerary caskets." "Please cover it with soil." "Now we are putting on the tombstone." "Jianjun, this is your Mom's last letter." "Dear Lao Li and Jianjun," "I'm in hospital these days." "It snows here." "All white outside." "I miss you two, also Chongqing, the fog city." "Heilongjiang is too dry." "I've been here for years but still can't get used to it." "The doctor said I could go home after the surgery." "I wish I could go back and see Chongqing again." "It's been years." "How are you?" "I have not heard from you for a long time." "According to your longevity, you must be the Supervisor now." "Retire in five years, right?" "Have you married again?" "I heard lots of people are layed off in Chongqing." "How's Jianjun?" "Well, I'm sure he's fine." "He's such a good boy." "He must have a kid now." "I wish it's a girl." "I've always wanted a daughter." "Everything must be fine with you." "You are good people." "You are blessed." "Your giving is always a lot" "But you never expect receiving" "One's life is always accompanied with dissatisfactions" "But please be happy and don't feel upset" "Wish everything is fine with you" "Oh..." "Wish everything is fine with you" "Wish happiness will always be with you" "Wish everything is fine with you" "Oh..." "Wish everything is fine with you" "That is my greatest wish..." "You will be happy forever"
