18
00:01:34,820 --> 00:01:38,420
Wenjie, you must believe me.

19
00:01:38,420 --> 00:01:40,460
Weining has been my comrades
for so many years.

20
00:01:40,460 --> 00:01:44,580
We have a deep personal friendship.
I have to help him with this.

21
00:01:44,580 --> 00:01:50,220
As long as you cooperate, you can avoid
the disastrous consequences.

22
00:01:52,260 --> 00:01:54,580
(At that moment,)

23
00:01:54,580 --> 00:01:58,060
(I knew what Lei Zhicheng was after.)

24
00:01:58,060 --> 00:01:59,900
(He wanted to become)

25
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:03,860
(the first man to discover
extraterrestrial intelligence.)

26
00:02:03,860 --> 00:02:09,300
(It really was a great opportunity to get
his name into the history textbooks.)

27
00:02:09,300 --> 00:02:12,020
Once he reported this,

28
00:02:12,020 --> 00:02:16,940
my reply would soon be discovered.

29
00:02:16,940 --> 00:02:21,380
(Humans would exhaust all technological
and military power)

30
00:02:21,380 --> 00:02:24,420
(to stop Trisolarans from coming.)

31
00:02:24,420 --> 00:02:27,020
(I assented.)

32
00:02:27,340 --> 00:02:29,700
But at that time,

33
00:02:31,660 --> 00:02:34,540
I'd already decided everything.

34
00:03:02,420 --> 00:03:06,340
(I loosened the bolt that secured
the ground wire to the bottom)

35
00:03:06,340 --> 00:03:09,820
(on the main cabinet
in the equipment closet.)

36
00:03:09,820 --> 00:03:13,900
(I would do equipment checkups a lot,)

37
00:03:13,900 --> 00:03:19,460
(so no one noticed what I did.)

38
00:03:25,900 --> 00:03:28,940
(Similar malfunctions
happened many times,)

39
00:03:28,940 --> 00:03:31,540
(that was easy to identify.)

40
00:03:31,540 --> 00:03:36,580
(But no one would think
that it was the ground wire,)

41
00:03:36,580 --> 00:03:38,540
(because it was well fastened.)

42
00:03:38,540 --> 00:03:40,540
(No one would touch that.)

43
00:03:40,540 --> 00:03:44,260
(Such problems would often involve)

44
00:03:44,260 --> 00:03:46,660
(the part of the wire on the cliff.)

45
00:03:46,660 --> 00:03:49,540
This is the monitor room. The ground wire
is having a problem again.

46
00:03:49,540 --> 00:03:51,140
OK. I'll get it fixed.

47
00:03:51,140 --> 00:03:53,180
Sure.

48
00:03:59,020 --> 00:04:01,540
Oh, you came back.
Something's wrong with the ground wire.

49
00:04:01,540 --> 00:04:03,300
I'll go check it out.

50
00:04:03,300 --> 00:04:06,300
I'll go. You stay here.

51
00:04:06,300 --> 00:04:10,100
If the surveillance is affected,
you'll report to the command center.

52
00:04:10,100 --> 00:04:12,020
OK.

53
00:04:42,020 --> 00:04:44,180
How is it going?

54
00:04:49,900 --> 00:04:55,940
(Why were you certain
that Lei Zhicheng would go down there?)

55
00:04:58,020 --> 00:05:02,860
(He was a dedicated political officer)

56
00:05:02,860 --> 00:05:09,140
(who would faithfully follow the orders
given to him.)

57
00:05:09,140 --> 00:05:15,580
(He were to be a part of the masses
and always be on the front line.)

58
00:05:16,980 --> 00:05:20,740
(Maybe it was just for show,)

59
00:05:20,740 --> 00:05:23,220
(but he performed well.)

60
00:05:23,220 --> 00:05:26,740
(Whenever there was some difficult
and perilous work at the base,)

61
00:05:26,740 --> 00:05:29,260
(he would always volunteer.)

62
00:05:29,260 --> 00:05:31,340
Well, have you found the problem?

63
00:05:31,340 --> 00:05:32,740
I checked everywhere.

64
00:05:32,740 --> 00:05:35,300
But I didn't find anything.
Maybe the problem isn't here.

65
00:05:35,300 --> 00:05:36,460
Maybe?

66
00:05:36,460 --> 00:05:38,020
What do you mean, maybe?

67
00:05:38,020 --> 00:05:40,700
You don't say "maybe"
when fulfilling an important duty.

68
00:05:40,700 --> 00:05:43,420
- Take off your bag.
- Political Commissar.

69
00:05:52,380 --> 00:05:55,340
(What he did the most)

70
00:05:56,580 --> 00:05:59,220
(was ground wire emergency maintenance,)

71
00:05:59,220 --> 00:06:03,580
(which was a dangerous
and exhausting job.)

72
00:06:10,260 --> 00:06:12,260
Political Commissar.

73
00:06:12,260 --> 00:06:15,340
It's not safe. I'll go down there, too.

74
00:06:16,180 --> 00:06:19,460
(So your plan was to cut the rope)

75
00:06:19,460 --> 00:06:22,500
(during his descent.)

76
00:06:24,900 --> 00:06:26,140
Pilers.

77
00:06:26,140 --> 00:06:29,540
I may need them. All of them.

78
00:06:35,540 --> 00:06:37,900
Many reasons can cause a malfunction.

79
00:06:37,900 --> 00:06:40,380
It may be the exposure
of the ground wire

80
00:06:40,380 --> 00:06:42,540
that causes bad contact

81
00:06:42,540 --> 00:06:43,980
or the dry weather

82
00:06:43,980 --> 00:06:47,340
that leads to poor electrode
conductivity of the ground wire.

83
00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:50,140
It could be a minor
and a complicated one.

84
00:06:50,140 --> 00:06:51,700
You are new here.

85
00:06:51,700 --> 00:06:54,540
Political Commissar Lei won't blame you.

86
00:06:58,340 --> 00:07:00,580
You go back to the main control room

87
00:07:00,580 --> 00:07:03,900
to check if other machines
are functional.

88
00:07:04,300 --> 00:07:05,420
OK.

89
00:07:05,420 --> 00:07:07,340
Go.

90
00:08:00,140 --> 00:08:04,980
(My plan was to cut the rope
with a short hacksaw that was broken)

91
00:08:04,980 --> 00:08:07,500
(into three pieces,)

92
00:08:11,460 --> 00:08:15,980
(and it wouldn't be obvious that
the rope was cut through with the saw.)

93
00:08:15,980 --> 00:08:18,140
Wenjie.

94
00:08:18,140 --> 00:08:21,980
(But I didn't expect that...)

95
00:08:23,380 --> 00:08:25,580
Wenjie.

96
00:08:28,340 --> 00:08:30,700
How is it going?

97
00:08:30,700 --> 00:08:32,980
Who's down there?

98
00:08:32,980 --> 00:08:35,340
Political Commissar Lei.

99
00:08:36,100 --> 00:08:38,460
He's on his own?

100
00:08:39,060 --> 00:08:39,900
That...

101
00:08:39,900 --> 00:08:41,500
That's not right.

102
00:08:41,500 --> 00:08:43,900
It is too hard for him to do it
on his own.

103
00:08:43,900 --> 00:08:46,260
I'll help him.

104
00:08:49,180 --> 00:08:51,860
Use another rope.

105
00:08:52,140 --> 00:08:54,300
No, that won't be necessary.

106
00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:56,580
The rope can take
the weight of the two of us.

107
00:08:56,580 --> 00:08:58,740
Don't worry.

108
00:08:58,980 --> 00:09:01,060
To shorten the time,

109
00:09:01,060 --> 00:09:04,420
three people descended
using only one rope.

110
00:09:04,900 --> 00:09:07,340
He's been down there for quite a while.

111
00:09:07,340 --> 00:09:08,980
Let's not keep him waiting.

112
00:09:08,980 --> 00:09:11,140
I need to hurry.

113
00:09:22,460 --> 00:09:24,860
It is a maintenance rule

114
00:09:24,860 --> 00:09:26,980
that two people can't share one rope.

115
00:09:26,980 --> 00:09:29,460
You must use another one.

116
00:09:34,300 --> 00:09:35,300
All right.

117
00:09:35,300 --> 00:09:36,580
Go get one, then.

118
00:09:36,580 --> 00:09:39,100
I'll be here waiting.

119
00:09:39,700 --> 00:09:41,660
Go.

120
00:09:49,380 --> 00:09:52,100
Take it easy.

121
00:09:53,580 --> 00:09:55,820
No running.

122
00:11:44,500 --> 00:11:46,060
I have checked everything.

123
00:11:46,060 --> 00:11:47,780
It's all good here.

124
00:11:47,780 --> 00:11:51,220
Maybe it's the part that connects
to the main cabinet.

125
00:11:51,220 --> 00:11:53,140
Let's get up there.

126
00:11:53,140 --> 00:11:54,620
OK.

127
00:11:54,620 --> 00:11:57,100
Be careful. It's slippery here.

128
00:11:57,100 --> 00:11:59,140
Yeah.

129
00:12:03,380 --> 00:12:05,180
(When I got back there,)

130
00:12:05,180 --> 00:12:08,860
(Lei Zhicheng and Yang Weining
had finished the inspection,)

131
00:12:08,860 --> 00:12:13,140
(and they were ascending
using one rope.)

132
00:12:13,140 --> 00:12:15,860
(Yang Weining was on the top,)

133
00:12:15,860 --> 00:12:18,820
(and Lei Zhicheng was under him.)

134
00:12:18,820 --> 00:12:21,100
(I knew)

135
00:12:21,220 --> 00:12:23,260
(that)

136
00:12:23,940 --> 00:12:26,900
(I would not have another chance.)

137
00:12:34,300 --> 00:12:36,780
(So)

138
00:12:37,220 --> 00:12:40,820
(I took out the hacksaw.)

139
00:14:07,540 --> 00:14:09,980
(I did it calmly,)

140
00:14:09,980 --> 00:14:13,220
(without feeling anything.)

141
00:14:13,580 --> 00:14:15,900
(I had found)

142
00:14:15,900 --> 00:14:18,620
(a goal to which I could devote myself.)

143
00:14:18,620 --> 00:14:22,740
(I didn't care
what price had to be paid,)

144
00:14:22,740 --> 00:14:27,380
(either by me or by others.)

145
00:14:27,980 --> 00:14:32,820
(And I knew that)

146
00:14:32,940 --> 00:14:35,460
(the entire human race)

147
00:14:35,460 --> 00:14:37,980
(would pay an unprecedented price)

148
00:14:37,980 --> 00:14:44,340
(for the goal.)

149
00:14:45,260 --> 00:14:51,260
(That was only the beginning.)

150
00:14:53,100 --> 00:14:59,140
(I heard two or three surprised cries,)

151
00:15:00,620 --> 00:15:07,100
(and then the sound
of bodies slamming against the rocks.)

152
00:15:08,500 --> 00:15:11,060
(After a while,)

153
00:15:12,220 --> 00:15:15,900
(I saw that the stream
at the foot of the cliff)

154
00:15:17,500 --> 00:15:19,780
(had turned red.)

155
00:15:23,260 --> 00:15:25,660
(Perhaps,)

156
00:15:26,300 --> 00:15:28,860
(the red waters)

157
00:15:28,860 --> 00:15:31,620
(were only my illusion.)

158
00:15:32,460 --> 00:15:38,540
(After all, the current of the stream)

159
00:15:38,540 --> 00:15:41,740
(was not as strong as it was
in summer.)

160
00:16:14,580 --> 00:16:16,660
Too many tubes, no?

161
00:16:16,660 --> 00:16:19,740
Well, we need to run a full examination.

162
00:16:20,500 --> 00:16:24,380
- Is your admission procedure finished?
- Yes.

163
00:16:27,340 --> 00:16:29,300
What are you doing here?

164
00:16:29,300 --> 00:16:31,060
I'm here to check you up.

165
00:16:31,060 --> 00:16:32,820
No need. I'm fine.

166
00:16:32,820 --> 00:16:34,100
Just go.

167
00:16:34,100 --> 00:16:35,940
I'm sure you're busy.

168
00:16:35,940 --> 00:16:41,460
(Inpatient)

169
00:16:57,460 --> 00:17:00,100
You found Ye Wenxue?

170
00:17:00,100 --> 00:17:02,780
No, I didn't.

171
00:17:02,780 --> 00:17:05,420
I've been in the business
for over twenty years.

172
00:17:05,420 --> 00:17:09,780
I know it is the best way
to deal with people like that.

173
00:17:09,780 --> 00:17:12,060
I knew it.

174
00:17:12,060 --> 00:17:13,780
What about Ye Wenjie?

175
00:17:13,780 --> 00:17:15,700
Has the interrogation begun?

176
00:17:15,700 --> 00:17:18,140
Yes, it began this morning.

177
00:17:19,860 --> 00:17:22,660
What are you doing here then?

178
00:17:23,660 --> 00:17:25,980
Go watch the whole thing.

179
00:17:25,980 --> 00:17:29,460
And you'll repeat everything
to me word by word.

180
00:17:32,220 --> 00:17:34,540
Why are you still sitting here?

181
00:17:36,500 --> 00:17:37,980
Hurry up.

182
00:17:37,980 --> 00:17:41,700
Take Professor Wang back.
He's got a mission.

183
00:17:42,060 --> 00:17:43,820
Professor Wang, don't worry.

184
00:17:43,820 --> 00:17:46,620
I'll take good care of Captain Shi.

185
00:17:54,500 --> 00:17:58,580
You let me know at once
when you have the examination report.

186
00:18:00,740 --> 00:18:03,060
Eat the apples.

187
00:18:37,180 --> 00:18:44,100
(The Third Affiliated Hospital of Capital
Medical University Examination Report)

188
00:18:44,100 --> 00:18:45,780
Captain Shi, the indicators...

189
00:18:45,780 --> 00:18:48,020
I know.

190
00:18:49,580 --> 00:18:51,660
I understand the numbers.

191
00:19:02,180 --> 00:19:06,500
Wang Miao mustn't see this.

192
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:08,860
I know him.

193
00:19:09,380 --> 00:19:14,580
Once he knows,
he'll find a place and cry by himself.

194
00:19:16,980 --> 00:19:19,420
Look at you.

195
00:19:22,700 --> 00:19:25,420
I'm not dead yet.

196
00:19:27,540 --> 00:19:32,060
- Give me a cigarette.
- No smoking in the hospital.

197
00:20:05,340 --> 00:20:08,500
(The Third Affiliated Hospital of Capital
Medical University Examination Report)

198
00:20:26,900 --> 00:20:32,900
(Respondent: Ye Wenjie)

199
00:20:40,740 --> 00:20:44,780
Professor Ye,
have you regretted it?

200
00:20:48,740 --> 00:20:50,980
No.

201
00:21:02,820 --> 00:21:05,340
Perhaps...

202
00:21:05,980 --> 00:21:08,980
for a small while.

203
00:21:15,260 --> 00:21:18,540
(The deaths of Lei and Yang)

204
00:21:18,540 --> 00:21:23,820
(were treated as accidents.)

205
00:21:23,820 --> 00:21:26,420
(Everybody at the base knew)

206
00:21:26,420 --> 00:21:29,740
(that Yang Weining and I
were a happy couple.)

207
00:21:29,740 --> 00:21:31,780
(So)

208
00:21:31,780 --> 00:21:35,420
(no one suspected me.)

209
00:21:35,700 --> 00:21:40,300
(It didn't take long before
a new commissar came to the base.)

210
00:21:40,300 --> 00:21:45,540
(And my life returned
to its habitual peace.)

211
00:21:46,580 --> 00:21:49,220
Until one day,

212
00:21:49,220 --> 00:21:54,460
Zhang told me
that someone wanted to see me.

213
00:21:55,580 --> 00:21:58,380
Those kids came from
the village of Qijiatun.

214
00:21:58,380 --> 00:22:00,540
They were told
that people were well-educated

215
00:22:00,540 --> 00:22:01,980
here at Radar Peak,

216
00:22:01,980 --> 00:22:05,300
so they would like to ask you some questions
about their study.

217
00:22:05,300 --> 00:22:07,700
Are they even allowed to be here?

218
00:22:07,700 --> 00:22:10,540
Well, the base's security rating
has been reduced.

219
00:22:10,540 --> 00:22:12,900
It'll be fine
as long as they stay outside.

220
00:22:12,900 --> 00:22:16,780
Yesterday, some local villagers came to
bring us vegetables.

221
00:22:21,340 --> 00:22:25,500
Kids, this is Professor Ye
who you asked to see.

222
00:22:25,500 --> 00:22:26,900
Hi. Hello.

223
00:22:26,900 --> 00:22:30,860
Nice to see you, Professor Ye.
Can I ask you a question?

224
00:22:30,860 --> 00:22:34,100
The textbook said that a body in free
fall is under constant acceleration,

225
00:22:34,100 --> 00:22:36,540
but will always reach
a terminal velocity.

226
00:22:36,540 --> 00:22:41,300
We've been trying to figure out why
for several nights.

227
00:22:42,540 --> 00:22:45,940
You came all the way up here
just to ask this?

228
00:22:45,940 --> 00:22:47,140
The Exam draws near.

229
00:22:47,140 --> 00:22:49,700
Our teacher told us
that it was an important one.

230
00:22:49,700 --> 00:22:50,660
What exam?

231
00:22:50,660 --> 00:22:52,100
You know,
the National College Entrance Exam.

232
00:22:52,100 --> 00:22:54,660
Whoever studies hard and gets
the best score gets to go the college.

233
00:22:54,660 --> 00:22:56,300
It began two years ago.

234
00:22:56,300 --> 00:22:58,820
Didn't you know?

235
00:22:59,020 --> 00:23:01,220
You don't need
a referral letter anymore?

236
00:23:01,220 --> 00:23:04,220
No. Anybody can take the exam.

237
00:23:07,260 --> 00:23:12,660
(More and more kids would come
and ask me more questions.)

238
00:23:12,660 --> 00:23:14,660
(If there was a large group,)

239
00:23:14,660 --> 00:23:17,100
(the leaders at the base would allow)

240
00:23:17,100 --> 00:23:22,620
(me to place a blackboard in my room
to teach the kids.)

241
00:23:22,620 --> 00:23:27,420
Every object will remain at rest
or in uniform motion in a straight line.

242
00:23:27,420 --> 00:23:31,340
Inertia varies with mass.

243
00:23:31,340 --> 00:23:32,420
Do you understand?

244
00:23:32,420 --> 00:23:34,620
Yes.

245
00:23:34,620 --> 00:23:35,740
All right.

246
00:23:35,740 --> 00:23:38,140
We'll end here today.

247
00:23:38,140 --> 00:23:39,700
Today is New Year's Eve.

248
00:23:39,700 --> 00:23:41,940
You'll go home and enjoy the evening.

249
00:23:41,940 --> 00:23:44,940
Professor Ye, my mom invites you to
have dumplings at our home with us.

250
00:23:44,940 --> 00:23:47,180
Professor Ye, my mom also
wants to invite you.

251
00:23:47,180 --> 00:23:48,620
Professor Ye, come to my home.

252
00:23:48,620 --> 00:24:01,300
My home. My home.

253
00:24:01,300 --> 00:24:04,460
I appreciate it, but no.

254
00:24:04,460 --> 00:24:05,780
Just go home.

255
00:24:05,780 --> 00:24:08,740
Be careful when you
go down the mountain.

256
00:24:31,820 --> 00:24:37,060
(Wedding Photo, Winter of 1973)

257
00:24:56,340 --> 00:24:58,500
Happy new year, Ye.

258
00:24:58,500 --> 00:25:00,940
What are you doing here
on New Year's Eve?

259
00:25:00,940 --> 00:25:04,340
Come on. Come here.

260
00:25:04,340 --> 00:25:06,900
Happy new year, Professor Ye.

261
00:25:06,900 --> 00:25:08,180
What are you doing here?

262
00:25:08,180 --> 00:25:09,980
Come inside.
It's cold out there. Quickly.

263
00:25:09,980 --> 00:25:11,340
Come on. Hurry.

264
00:25:11,340 --> 00:25:12,980
Get inside.

265
00:25:12,980 --> 00:25:15,300
I'm freezing.

266
00:25:21,580 --> 00:25:23,420
It happens that I'm on duty.

267
00:25:23,420 --> 00:25:27,340
Or these kids wouldn't
have found the place.

268
00:25:27,340 --> 00:25:30,020
Ye, I'm still on patrol.

269
00:25:30,020 --> 00:25:32,580
You keep them here.

270
00:25:33,060 --> 00:25:35,980
Kids, listen to Professor Ye,
don't run about.

271
00:25:35,980 --> 00:25:38,500
Come and get me before you leave,
I'll lead you down the mountain.

272
00:25:38,500 --> 00:25:39,140
Got it?

273
00:25:39,140 --> 00:25:40,140
Got it.

274
00:25:40,140 --> 00:25:40,980
All right.

275
00:25:40,980 --> 00:25:41,980
Ye, I'm off.

276
00:25:41,980 --> 00:25:43,980
Thanks.

277
00:25:51,700 --> 00:25:53,700
Come on. Warm yourselves up.

278
00:25:53,700 --> 00:25:56,420
Thank you, Professor Ye.

279
00:25:57,060 --> 00:25:59,260
Do you feel cold?

280
00:26:03,740 --> 00:26:06,180
What is this?

281
00:26:10,220 --> 00:26:15,460
Professor Ye, my mom said dumplings
are essential on the New Year's Eve.

282
00:26:15,460 --> 00:26:17,620
We know that you can't
go down the mountain.

283
00:26:17,620 --> 00:26:21,020
So we're here to keep you company.

284
00:26:30,900 --> 00:26:33,020
Thank you.

285
00:26:33,420 --> 00:26:40,380
(I thought
it would be a cold New Year's Eve.)

286
00:26:44,460 --> 00:26:46,660
(In June,)

287
00:26:46,660 --> 00:26:49,500
(I gave birth to Yang Dong.)

288
00:26:50,780 --> 00:26:54,500
(Due to malpresentation,
my poor health condition,)

289
00:26:54,500 --> 00:26:58,300
(and the clinic's inability
to deliver a baby at the base,)

290
00:26:58,300 --> 00:27:02,620
(I was taken to the nearest
hospital in town.)

291
00:27:03,020 --> 00:27:06,620
(I had a heavy hemorrhage on the way.)

292
00:27:06,620 --> 00:27:08,780
(I was thinking,)

293
00:27:08,780 --> 00:27:11,140
("This probably is it.)

294
00:27:11,140 --> 00:27:16,660
(This is the comeuppance
for my betrayal.")

295
00:27:16,660 --> 00:27:19,340
Everybody, wait outside.

296
00:27:22,140 --> 00:27:24,700
(Operation Room)

297
00:27:24,700 --> 00:27:26,780
It's been ages. She's still in there.

298
00:27:26,780 --> 00:27:29,980
Right. Did something go wrong?

299
00:27:29,980 --> 00:27:32,580
Ye always has a poor health condition.

300
00:27:32,580 --> 00:27:34,060
I don't know.

301
00:27:34,060 --> 00:27:36,980
I hope she's okay.

302
00:27:40,780 --> 00:27:43,580
Is her family here?

303
00:27:44,300 --> 00:27:45,740
How's she doing?

304
00:27:45,740 --> 00:27:47,500
Her family!

305
00:27:47,500 --> 00:27:48,900
She's got no family here.

306
00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:49,780
Right.

307
00:27:49,780 --> 00:27:52,340
Listen, she had a heavy hemorrhage.
We don't have enough blood.

308
00:27:52,340 --> 00:27:53,660
We need a blood donor.

309
00:27:53,660 --> 00:27:55,220
Me. Me.

310
00:27:55,220 --> 00:27:57,660
We can't just take random blood.
Your blood type needs to match hers.

311
00:27:57,660 --> 00:28:01,060
(Later, the doctor told me)

312
00:28:01,060 --> 00:28:03,820
(that I lost over 2,000 cc of blood.)

313
00:28:03,820 --> 00:28:07,940
(The villagers in Qijiatun
donated their blood)

314
00:28:07,940 --> 00:28:10,660
(to sustain my life.)

315
00:28:14,060 --> 00:28:18,180
I tutored some of their kids,

316
00:28:18,180 --> 00:28:22,060
but most of them, I never met before.

317
00:28:22,060 --> 00:28:25,940
They had only heard about me

318
00:28:25,940 --> 00:28:29,500
from their children or parents.

319
00:28:29,780 --> 00:28:32,620
If it weren't for them,

320
00:28:33,740 --> 00:28:36,740
I would have been dead.

321
00:28:38,860 --> 00:28:42,860
(Yang Dong was born,
but I was too weak)

322
00:28:42,860 --> 00:28:45,740
(to take care of the baby.)

323
00:28:45,740 --> 00:28:49,460
(One villager from Qijiatun
went to talk to the leaders at the base)

324
00:28:49,460 --> 00:28:52,300
(and proposed
to look after me and my baby)

325
00:28:52,300 --> 00:28:53,620
(in his own house.)

326
00:28:53,620 --> 00:28:55,620
Qi.

327
00:28:55,620 --> 00:28:58,540
How is Professor Ye doing?

328
00:28:59,100 --> 00:29:02,900
Don't get in there, you.

329
00:29:02,900 --> 00:29:05,420
But I... Can you keep it down?

330
00:29:05,420 --> 00:29:06,940
You're too loud.

331
00:29:06,940 --> 00:29:08,660
You are disturbing the kid.

332
00:29:08,660 --> 00:29:10,940
My sister-in-law has a relative
in the city.

333
00:29:10,940 --> 00:29:13,140
(Malted milk powder)
She gave me these.

334
00:29:13,140 --> 00:29:14,940
They are supposed to be nutritious.

335
00:29:14,940 --> 00:29:19,020
I figure Professor Ye
will be needing nutrition at the moment.

336
00:29:19,020 --> 00:29:21,380
I'll hand these to her.

337
00:29:21,980 --> 00:29:23,980
Just leave them here.

338
00:29:23,980 --> 00:29:25,700
See all those things?

339
00:29:25,700 --> 00:29:27,500
You know Professor Ye's students?

340
00:29:27,500 --> 00:29:30,780
Their parents bring food here every day.

341
00:29:31,260 --> 00:29:32,980
The leader said this.

342
00:29:32,980 --> 00:29:36,140
He said, "Professor Ye can

343
00:29:36,140 --> 00:29:38,340
return to the base
after she gets better."

344
00:29:38,340 --> 00:29:41,060
But she has to keep herself busy.

345
00:29:41,060 --> 00:29:44,140
She said she'd teach the kids
right in this yard.

346
00:29:44,140 --> 00:29:45,700
Right here? That's good, isn't it?

347
00:29:45,700 --> 00:29:47,420
Hey, you!

348
00:29:47,420 --> 00:29:48,540
Keep it down.

349
00:29:48,540 --> 00:29:50,020
I mean, look at her.

350
00:29:50,020 --> 00:29:51,220
Quickly, quickly.

351
00:29:51,220 --> 00:29:52,420
Where were you, Feng?

352
00:29:52,420 --> 00:29:54,620
What took you so long?
The kid is crying.

353
00:29:54,620 --> 00:29:56,260
My in-law had to see the baby.

354
00:29:56,260 --> 00:29:57,180
I was so anxious.

355
00:29:57,180 --> 00:29:58,580
All right. All right.
Just make it quick.

356
00:29:58,580 --> 00:29:59,780
Hurry. Hurry.

357
00:29:59,780 --> 00:30:00,420
Quickly.

358
00:30:00,420 --> 00:30:02,860
- All right. All right.
- Hurry. Hurry.

359
00:30:04,780 --> 00:30:05,580
Qi.

360
00:30:05,580 --> 00:30:08,460
- You'll be fed, baby girl.
- Qi.

361
00:30:08,940 --> 00:30:11,700
You can't follow us in.

362
00:30:11,700 --> 00:30:14,380
What is Feng doing here?

363
00:30:14,380 --> 00:30:17,540
Professor Ye can't produce any milk.

364
00:30:17,540 --> 00:30:19,820
Feng is a strong girl,
and she just gave birth.

365
00:30:19,820 --> 00:30:20,980
She's full of milk.

366
00:30:20,980 --> 00:30:21,780
So I got her back.

367
00:30:21,780 --> 00:30:25,180
She can feed two babies, can't she?

368
00:30:31,300 --> 00:30:34,620
Many women fed Dong.

369
00:30:34,620 --> 00:30:37,820
Everybody in the village
was fond of her.

370
00:30:37,820 --> 00:30:40,540
They said my girl looked smart.

371
00:30:40,540 --> 00:30:45,980
Gradually, the house became
the gathering place for the villagers.

372
00:30:45,980 --> 00:30:51,380
Old and young,
they all liked to come here.

373
00:30:52,100 --> 00:30:54,220
- He can't look like that.
- She's asleep.

374
00:30:54,220 --> 00:30:55,140
Hurry.

375
00:30:55,140 --> 00:30:55,940
Let me hold her.

376
00:30:55,940 --> 00:30:57,500
It's fine. Go get some rest.
I'll go.

377
00:30:57,500 --> 00:30:59,620
Sister, listen to me.
No, no. She can do that.

378
00:30:59,620 --> 00:31:01,340
You were up all night.

379
00:31:01,340 --> 00:31:03,820
Comrades, I think I'm doing very well.

380
00:31:03,820 --> 00:31:04,900
Is this...

381
00:31:04,900 --> 00:31:06,100
Is this okay?

382
00:31:06,100 --> 00:31:06,700
So?

383
00:31:06,700 --> 00:31:08,140
You like him, don't you?

384
00:31:08,140 --> 00:31:09,780
Is he your type?

385
00:31:09,780 --> 00:31:10,660
No.

386
00:31:10,660 --> 00:31:11,300
What?

387
00:31:11,300 --> 00:31:11,900
No.

388
00:31:11,900 --> 00:31:12,620
Right?

389
00:31:12,620 --> 00:31:15,300
We're better than that.

390
00:31:15,780 --> 00:31:17,140
No, no, no. Don't do that.

391
00:31:17,140 --> 00:31:19,180
(That piece of memory)

392
00:31:19,180 --> 00:31:23,300
(doesn't even feel like my own.)

393
00:31:23,300 --> 00:31:24,140
More. More.

394
00:31:24,140 --> 00:31:27,180
(It felt more like
the fragments of someone else's life)

395
00:31:27,180 --> 00:31:29,060
(barged into mine.)

396
00:31:29,060 --> 00:31:31,220
Let me see.

397
00:31:32,260 --> 00:31:35,180
What is that, a tail?

398
00:31:35,180 --> 00:31:37,500
One more.

399
00:31:37,500 --> 00:31:40,980
This, this is how you do it. Like this.

400
00:31:43,180 --> 00:31:48,900
(What's the most unforgettable
is those nights I spent with Feng.)

401
00:31:48,900 --> 00:31:51,820
(Qijiatun had no electricity,)

402
00:31:51,820 --> 00:31:57,340
(we would sit next to the oil lamp
to look after the baby.)

403
00:32:14,460 --> 00:32:17,380
I feel cold.

404
00:32:26,140 --> 00:32:28,900
What's on your mind?

405
00:32:30,460 --> 00:32:31,900
Nothing.

406
00:32:31,900 --> 00:32:33,860
These days

407
00:32:33,860 --> 00:32:36,580
feel like a dream to me.

408
00:32:36,580 --> 00:32:38,860
It doesn't even belong to me.

409
00:32:38,860 --> 00:32:41,140
What are you talking about?

410
00:32:41,140 --> 00:32:45,140
All right, I need to add more wood
to heat up the bed.

411
00:32:45,140 --> 00:32:48,900
I'll help, so you don't have to
go in and out twice.

412
00:33:24,460 --> 00:33:29,820
Look at the bright stars.

413
00:33:29,940 --> 00:33:31,300
Wenjie,

414
00:33:31,300 --> 00:33:37,140
how come the stars
don't fall from the sky?

415
00:33:38,460 --> 00:33:40,540
Are you afraid that they will fall?

416
00:33:40,540 --> 00:33:41,740
I'm not.

417
00:33:41,740 --> 00:33:44,220
They are so small.

418
00:33:50,140 --> 00:33:53,020
They are very far away from us.

419
00:33:53,340 --> 00:33:55,900
They won't fall.

420
00:34:00,540 --> 00:34:03,100
All right, back to the wood-burning.
Get back into the room.

421
00:34:03,100 --> 00:34:04,620
It is cold outside.

422
00:34:04,620 --> 00:34:06,940
Get inside.

423
00:34:15,940 --> 00:34:18,620
(That was a brief)

424
00:34:19,100 --> 00:34:21,580
happy moment.

425
00:34:22,820 --> 00:34:25,900
But you lived through the worst time.

426
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:28,540
Two years after your daughter was born,

427
00:34:28,540 --> 00:34:33,180
you and your father
were politically rehabilitated.

428
00:34:33,180 --> 00:34:35,340
Yes.

429
00:34:35,340 --> 00:34:37,860
I received a letter from my college.

430
00:34:37,860 --> 00:34:40,660
They said I could return to work.

431
00:34:40,660 --> 00:34:45,660
A sum of money came with the letter.

432
00:34:45,660 --> 00:34:48,500
That was the back pay owed to my father

433
00:34:48,620 --> 00:34:52,420
after his rehabilitation.

434
00:34:53,900 --> 00:34:56,700
At base meetings,

435
00:34:56,700 --> 00:34:58,820
they finally

436
00:34:58,820 --> 00:35:03,740
addressed me as Comrade Ye Wenjie.

437
00:35:05,660 --> 00:35:07,780
At the time,

438
00:35:07,780 --> 00:35:11,020
I remembered the letter

439
00:35:11,540 --> 00:35:14,340
that I sent to Trisolaris

440
00:35:14,340 --> 00:35:17,340
two years ago.

441
00:35:17,620 --> 00:35:20,420
But I was very aware

442
00:35:20,420 --> 00:35:25,620
that they'd never see me
as their comrade again.

443
00:35:26,220 --> 00:35:28,900
Until you left the base,

444
00:35:28,900 --> 00:35:33,380
you never received anything
from Trisolaris ever again?

445
00:35:33,380 --> 00:35:36,980
It would take at least eight years

446
00:35:36,980 --> 00:35:39,300
to receive the reply from Trisolaris.

447
00:35:39,300 --> 00:35:42,660
And after I left the base,

448
00:35:42,660 --> 00:35:45,340
I no longer had any way
to receive replies.

449
00:35:45,340 --> 00:35:48,220
How did you cope after you went back?

450
00:35:48,220 --> 00:35:50,380
After all, the time had changed.

451
00:35:50,380 --> 00:35:52,460
Right.

452
00:35:52,460 --> 00:35:55,060
Everybody had changed.

453
00:35:55,060 --> 00:35:58,740
They started to
take technology seriously.

454
00:35:58,740 --> 00:36:00,860
They started to approach science,

455
00:36:00,860 --> 00:36:02,940
believe in the good qualities
of being hard-working

456
00:36:02,940 --> 00:36:04,660
and down-to-earth.

457
00:36:04,660 --> 00:36:09,020
At the first National Conference
on Science,

458
00:36:09,020 --> 00:36:10,740
Guo Moruo declared
that it was the season

459
00:36:10,740 --> 00:36:14,740
of rebirth and renewal
for China's battered science establishment.

460
00:36:14,740 --> 00:36:16,580
At the time,

461
00:36:16,580 --> 00:36:19,580
I would often ask myself,

462
00:36:19,820 --> 00:36:22,140
"Is this the end

463
00:36:22,140 --> 00:36:24,980
of the madness?

464
00:36:24,980 --> 00:36:28,460
Is science and rationality

465
00:36:28,460 --> 00:36:31,500
really coming back?"

466
00:36:35,700 --> 00:36:39,180
As time went by,

467
00:36:39,580 --> 00:36:42,660
the Red Coast Base

468
00:36:43,060 --> 00:36:46,900
started to feel surreal to me.

469
00:36:46,900 --> 00:36:50,740
(That thing was too important.)

470
00:36:50,740 --> 00:36:54,620
(And I had done it all by myself.)

471
00:36:54,620 --> 00:36:58,860
(It felt more and more
like my hallucination.)

472
00:36:58,860 --> 00:37:01,300
(Like a dream.)

473
00:37:01,300 --> 00:37:05,780
(Could the sun really
amplify radio signals?)

474
00:37:05,780 --> 00:37:09,900
(Did I really use the sun as an antenna)

475
00:37:09,900 --> 00:37:13,660
(to send a message into the universe)

476
00:37:13,660 --> 00:37:17,060
(about human civilization?)

477
00:37:17,060 --> 00:37:22,900
(Did I really receive a message
from an alien civilization?)

478
00:37:23,340 --> 00:37:26,900
(Also, Lei Zhicheng,)

479
00:37:26,900 --> 00:37:28,820
(and Yang Weining.)

480
00:37:28,820 --> 00:37:31,660
(Did I really...)

481
00:37:37,460 --> 00:37:41,100
But that was real.

482
00:37:41,700 --> 00:37:44,780
I started to have doubt

483
00:37:44,780 --> 00:37:47,900
about the super betrayal.

484
00:37:48,940 --> 00:37:54,260
I tried to numb myself with work

485
00:37:54,260 --> 00:37:56,820
in order to forget the past.

486
00:37:56,820 --> 00:37:59,700
It made me

487
00:37:59,700 --> 00:38:02,980
feel safe.

488
00:38:03,660 --> 00:38:05,580
Professor Ye,

489
00:38:05,580 --> 00:38:08,580
could you really forget that?

490
00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:11,860
It was difficult.

491
00:38:11,860 --> 00:38:15,900
I tried to sympathize with
those who once harmed me.

492
00:38:15,900 --> 00:38:18,260
I thought benevolence

493
00:38:18,260 --> 00:38:21,260
might be helpful.

494
00:38:21,380 --> 00:38:23,860
I hoped

495
00:38:23,860 --> 00:38:25,860
that they, too,

496
00:38:25,860 --> 00:38:28,820
could move on.

497
00:38:29,940 --> 00:38:32,820
You mentioned people who harmed you.

498
00:38:32,820 --> 00:38:35,540
Who were they?

499
00:38:39,700 --> 00:38:41,660
My mother.

500
00:38:41,660 --> 00:38:43,980
Shao Lin.

501
00:38:44,420 --> 00:38:47,420
And the one who led

502
00:38:47,700 --> 00:38:51,340
the interrogation

503
00:38:51,660 --> 00:38:54,260
on my father.

504
00:38:55,220 --> 00:38:58,420
After my father passed away,
my mother soon recovered

505
00:38:58,420 --> 00:39:02,500
from her mental breakdown

506
00:39:02,500 --> 00:39:05,060
and found ways

507
00:39:05,220 --> 00:39:08,020
to survive through the hardships.

508
00:39:09,100 --> 00:39:12,180
(In 1977,)

509
00:39:12,180 --> 00:39:14,060
(she married)

510
00:39:14,060 --> 00:39:19,220
(a dismissed high-level cadre
from the Ministry of Education.)

511
00:39:19,220 --> 00:39:21,620
(She correctly foresaw the future)

512
00:39:21,620 --> 00:39:25,340
(and made the right choice.)

513
00:39:25,340 --> 00:39:28,100
(Before the end of the revolution,)

514
00:39:28,100 --> 00:39:33,540
(her husband was partially
restored to his old position.)

515
00:39:33,660 --> 00:39:36,420
(After the Third Plenary Session
of the Eleventh CPC Central Committee,)

516
00:39:36,420 --> 00:39:38,980
(he was promoted rapidly.)

517
00:39:38,980 --> 00:39:44,540
(Shao Lin left her old college,)

518
00:39:44,540 --> 00:39:48,460
(and was promoted to be the vice president
of another famous university.)

519
00:39:48,460 --> 00:39:49,860
What?

520
00:39:49,860 --> 00:39:52,180
Put it here.

521
00:39:52,180 --> 00:39:53,900
No eggplant tonight.

522
00:39:53,900 --> 00:39:55,740
Wenjie doesn't like that.

523
00:39:55,740 --> 00:39:57,140
Cook a fish.

524
00:39:57,140 --> 00:40:00,220
It's good for the children.
Want a candy?

525
00:40:00,220 --> 00:40:03,140
I'll remove the package for you.

526
00:40:03,620 --> 00:40:07,300
♪ Oh, the sea ♪

527
00:40:07,300 --> 00:40:08,780

♪ It's just like our mother ♪

529
00:40:12,860 --> 00:40:17,860
I'm sure you went through
a lot of sufferings.

530
00:40:18,820 --> 00:40:21,820
How did you cope with them?

531
00:40:27,660 --> 00:40:31,260
Here, Grandma's got it.
Grandma's got it.

532
00:40:31,700 --> 00:40:33,900
Welcome home.

533
00:40:43,180 --> 00:40:48,340

534
00:40:48,340 --> 00:40:53,380

536
00:41:03,540 --> 00:41:06,300
Is everything okay at work?

537
00:41:06,500 --> 00:41:09,140
That's alright.

538
00:41:09,140 --> 00:41:13,540
The teachers are mostly Father's
former students and co-workers.

539
00:41:13,540 --> 00:41:16,380
They are nice to me.

540
00:41:21,740 --> 00:41:24,020
I don't want it.

541
00:41:24,020 --> 00:41:25,220
OK.

542
00:41:25,220 --> 00:41:27,820
I bought some new clothes for you.

543
00:41:27,820 --> 00:41:29,220
Would you like to have a look?

544
00:41:29,220 --> 00:41:30,540
I want this one.

545
00:41:30,540 --> 00:41:31,380
OK.

546
00:41:31,380 --> 00:41:33,900
Take the candy with you, all right?

547
00:41:33,900 --> 00:41:34,980
Good girl.

548
00:41:34,980 --> 00:41:37,940
All of them.

552
00:41:51,220 --> 00:41:53,140
After the dinner,

553
00:41:53,140 --> 00:41:57,180
her husband walked us a long distance.

554
00:41:57,180 --> 00:42:01,660
You're welcome to come home with
your daughter more often.

555
00:42:01,660 --> 00:42:07,940
But remember, do not try to pursue
old historical debts.

556
00:42:07,940 --> 00:42:12,940
Your mother bears no responsibility
for your father's death.

557
00:42:12,940 --> 00:42:16,020
She, too, was a victim.

558
00:42:16,540 --> 00:42:19,820
Whereas your father

559
00:42:19,820 --> 00:42:23,900
clung to his own faith

560
00:42:23,900 --> 00:42:26,500
in a manner that was not healthy

561
00:42:26,500 --> 00:42:28,940
and walked all the way
down a blind alley.

562
00:42:28,940 --> 00:42:31,780
He abandoned his responsibility
to his family

563
00:42:31,780 --> 00:42:35,940
and caused you
and your mother to suffer.

564
00:42:37,180 --> 00:42:40,860
You have no right to speak of my father.

565
00:42:40,860 --> 00:42:44,420
It is between me and my mother.

566
00:42:45,980 --> 00:42:48,820
It has nothing to do with you.

567
00:42:52,420 --> 00:42:55,260
Well, you're right.

568
00:42:55,420 --> 00:43:00,580
But I'm only passing
on a message from your mother.
