Summary

The war history and family life of Nong Jianzhong, a Zhuang Vietnam War veteran, have exposed a lot of absurd political lies. The emperor's new clothes will eventually be revealed to be a farce. The lonely sail has landed and is independent. Everything is empty. The grandson represents the future, the old man represents the past, and the lies of authoritarianism have persisted across generations and have not disappeared. He was full of revolutionary feelings, nostalgic for the past, and recited revolutionary songs. However, after demobilization and return to his hometown, he was "oppressed by revolutionary comrades" due to the family planning policy. Some anti-party elements transformed into revolutionaries and occupied high positions. And the vast number of ordinary combatants he represents have been forgotten by the country, society, and families. He is contradictory and tangled. He recognizes the Communist Party but is dissatisfied with the Communist Party.
