My father always said
as long as you
keep thinking hard,
you can do anything on Earth,
[Jiuquan Launch Center] [October 17th, 2019]
Until today,
As the youngest Taikonaut in China,
I'm still uncertain whether
I've lived up to my father's expectations,
Commander, hello,
By going to space for the 4th time,
you'll become the most experienced Taikonaut in the country,
Once you arrive,
what one thing would you
want to say to the world?
Don't lick your gums,
This,,,
,,,this is for my little girl, Qiaqia,
Qiaqia,
don't you always ask
where dad goes on business trips?
Up in the sky,
When I'm there
I can see every moment of you
so remember
don't lick your gums,
In two months,
dad will bring back a star for you,
Hello, Fei Ma,
This is your first space mission,
My question is
Do you have a word for your family?
The seat for your family is empty,
Are they here today?
Once they can get to the XYZs of each problem
then our children
will master their own fate,
One month ago
at the altitude of 7117 meters
in the Nyenchenthanglha mountains
14 year old Tibetan girl Dawa Yangzong
raises the sacred flame high in the air
thus commencing the 11th
Beijing Asian Games torch relay,
September, 1990
They are here!
Welcome,,,Welcome, warm welcome,
The story of my family
started 30 years ago
at the nationally celebrated event,
Sir,,,
,,,why are you still here?
We're running late!
Hurry up!
Handmade birthday present for my son,
A globe made out of a soccer ball,
What do you think?
Sir!
Torch relay!
Come on,
Why the rush?
Look,
This tardy torch carrier
is my father,
For him
his child always comes first,
Stupid stupid stupid head
look what you got me into!
Behind me
is the newly built Dong Pei bridge,
In 10 minutes, the sacred flame will arrive,
Beside me
is the kindergarten welcome formation
Welcome,,,welcome, warm welcome
Welcome,,,welcome, warm welcome,
Come here,
This kid is horrible,
I'm gonna tell you one last time,
On the last Warm welcome
get down on one knee,
Understand?
Yes,
Show me,
This kid is hopeless,
Hopeless,
Stand up right,
Go to the back,
This hopeless kid
was me,
In 10 minutes
I will be given a mind blowing gift,
And my life
will change forever,
The torch carrier?
We've got 5 minutes!
Come on, fast!
Come on!
Come on come on!
Coming!
The 286th carrier
is running towards the bridge!
Sir!
Faster!
Only 3 minutes,
Sir
50 meters to the relay point!
The carrier is about
to hand over the torch!
Sir,
it's too late,
Final 20 meters!
10 meters!
5 meters!
The 287th carrier Haowen Ma
took over the torch!
He's speeding
to the bridge!
Here he comes!
Let the Dong Pei bridge relay ceremony
commence!
Welcome welcome, warm welcome
The torch carrier
is the architect of the Dong Pei bridge
Engineer Haowen Ma,
Once the flame passes through
Dong Pei, the largest bridge in the city
will officially open to the public,
The opening of the bridge
is the dream come true for the whole city
Mr, Haowen Ma,
the bridge you designed,,,
Miss, miss,
That's my father,
If that's your father
I'll eat a chair,
Dad, dad,
Anything to share with our audience?
One second,
Sir,
Sir?
With everyone staring
my brilliant father runs towards me,
For the first time, I was dazzled by happiness,
Not until 30 years later
did I realize
Globe
that very second
was the highlight of my father's life,
Welcome welcome, warm welcome,
Dad,
what are you doing with the torch?
Why are they applauding?
Are you in trouble?
That's because they like what dad does,
Look,
There used to be no bridge
to cross the river,
One had to walk a long way,
Dad is a magician
and I did a big trick,
Now there's a bridge,
When you grow up
you must do what you love,
Little brat
happy birthday,
Dad,
what an awesome trick!
Dad,
could you do it again for me?
Fei Ma?
You told me that
life is like an arrow,
That targets
our dreams,
What's the point of shooting it
if you don't have a target?
Thanks to you
today
I finally get to shoot my arrow,

Exclusive news
After 57 long days, Shuguang No,16 has
carried out its mission successfully,
In 3 days
Taikonaut Xinghe Gu and Fei Ma
will return to earth,
Commander!
We've lost contact with the spacecraft!
December 15th, 2019 8:43 P,M,
The cause has been confirmed
It was space debris,
It breached the insulation tiles,
It also damaged
the relay antenna,
Now
we've lost
all communication to earth,
What's worse,
all this
is just the beginning of the return trip,
Should we miss the re-entry point
it won't matter whether we pilot the ship
manually or by autopilot,
The damaged insulation tiles
will light up instantly
once we enter the atmosphere,
The capsule
and us
Boom,
One big puff of flame,
We've encountered
the one in a billion chance,
Buddy
say goodbye
to Earth,
Time goes by
Confused I was back in the days
After the bridge collapsed
dad was sent to a mysterious place,
Each time I went to visit
I had to travel across the mountains,
Look,
it makes me look bad,
Now that you are in trouble
yet I'll be leaving,
My fault,
it's my fault,
It's always your fault
and that's the problem,
Weren't you so eloquent in court?
When you took the blame,
did you think about our son?
Did you think about me?
Even if the bridge survived
our relationship wouldn't have,
It's time,
Fine,
[ Divorce papers ]
Dad,
Let's go home,
I don't want to be here,
The globe is broken,
You need to fix it for me,
Dad can't help you with the globe,
He has to stay here to fix the real globe,
Dad can't go home today
but I trust that any son of mine
could fix the globe on his own,
Am I right?
No
Miss Wong said I'm hopeless,
Miss Wong is full of it,
Remember,
don't let words get to you,
Understand?
You are
the brightest kid on Earth,
As long as you keep thinking hard
you'll never be hopeless,
Not only could you fix the globe
but also anything you want in the world,
Are you brainwashing him?
Let's go,
No, no!
What's wrong with you?
No!
I want to stay with dad tonight,
Your father is not going home, Come with me,
No! No way!
What's your problem?
No,
Let's hug,
alright?
Come,
Let's
play a game,
What game?
You go with Mom,
Dad will go another route,
Let's see who arrives home first,
I have a secret weapon
the fastest spaceship in the universe,
It's faster than light,
For real?
Think hard
very very hard
or I'll win,
I'm gonna go get my spaceship now,
I'm going,,,
I'll beat you!
Dad said
as long as I keep thinking hard
I could do anything on Earth,
Looks like he lied,
Come on, it's bath time,
Dad said he's coming by rocket,
I wanna make sure he can see us from the sky,
He always misses,
Is it because my flashlight is too dim?
He can't see?
In the night sky far away
A crescent moon hangs
Under the crescent moon
Is the crescent of a bridge
Next to the crescent bridge
Is the crescent of a boat
on the crescent boat
Is Ah Jiao from my childhood,
Ah Jiao rows the boat
Singing an ancient ballad
The song is blowing in the wind
Dear son
Hello,
You became a primary school student in September,
I know that you must
have made lots of new friends,
Hopeless!
It was his old man who collapsed the bridge!
Get him!
You sprint
together happily
having fun,
Dad's fine, too,
I'm having a great time,
Stop running!
Halt!
Stop!
Hopeless!
What do you want?
Many things in the world
Give it back!
we cannot control,
Give me back the globe!
But what we can control
is our own fate,
My father gave it to me!
No!
My father gave it to me!
Never stop thinking,
Never give in,
Get him!
Stop right there!
Stop running!
Halt!
As long as you are brave
nobody
can stop you on your way,
Stop!
Halt!
Yubin Fu
Go!

Under Coach Schlappner
The Chinese team has made it to third place
in this Asian Championship,
The day is nigh
when Chinese football
will rock the world,
My son
today
mom and Mr, Meng
will take you to a new place,
Where?
A heavenly place,
A place that will change you entirely,
I promised my little girl
that I'd bring her back a star,
Now
her mom will have to
point to a random star in the sky
and say,
Look,
that's your dad's star,
I don't think you've ever mentioned
why you chose to do this,
All of my achievements today
I owe to my family,
If it wasn't for him
I couldn't have became a taikonaut
in a thousand years,
Lin Li
Does the room have a new lock?
That room is for storage now,
Engineer Ma
Haowen Ma!
Haowen Ma is back!
How dare you come back here!
Shame on you!
Who gave you the guts?
How dare you!
How much money have you pocketed?
The whole company took a pay cut
because of you!
Sorry, I'm here for my son,
Tell us about your lousy design first,
People were excited to see my father
Many of them even had choice words
for my dear departed granny,
My father took the blame for the whole company
and now he's the most hated person in the city,
Coming,
Xinyu
You are,,,
Early release or did you break out?
I,,,
I ran out last night,
I'm now a wanted fugitive,
Where's my son?
Fei Ma
My boy?
The boy's at school,
A privileged boarding school,
He's only home once per month,
You must be Ma,
Hello, Meng,
No need,
You are more tanned than your picture,
You want something to drink?
Coffee?
Coke?
Some liquor?
All imported,
Ma
what do you usually drink
back in there?
Obviously none of these,
With decent performance
the guard
will treat us
with a dose of cough syrup,
Hey,
Mr, Yan,
Meng from the railway administration,
I was about to call,
I wanted to ask, how did my son Fei Ma
do recently?
That's why you called?
That's great,
Mr, Yan,
Please,
Your husband's deafening,
Was there some voice training?
Xinyu
We agreed that you'd bring our son to visit every 3 months,
Not even once,
No replies to the letters,
How could you send him to a boarding school?
What's wrong with boarding school?
I think it's great,
More time to study
makes him more independent,
Competition is fierce in society,
He needs to work hard to go to a good university,
Meng is taking a paid leave,
We are running a business in Guangzhou,
I commute between cities,
no matter how hard it gets,
Did I complain?
Did I do it for myself?
All you do is talk,
I'm telling you, Haowen Ma,
I have everything under control,
My son will thrive,
I have good news and bad news about Fei Ma,
Which first?
Cut the crap,
Bad news?
Fei Ma is in big trouble,
Mr, Yan said
the school has decided to expel him
and told him to find another school immediately,
And the good news?
We get the tuition back in full,
Boyu School,
Ranked first among the 4 best high schools in Dong Pei,
The top Gaokao scorer
in the province is one of ours,
Every student
is associated to an exam paper,
The reason
your parents sent you here
is because they want us
to help you produce
a satisfying answer sheet,
I found this
under someone's pillow,
Whose is this?
Raise your hand,
The Smiling Proud Wanderer
doesn't dare to raise a hand?
You again,
Step forward!
Shame on you,
Fei Ma,
Long time under-performer
in the class,
No shows, skip class,
Frequent offender,
Ridiculous,
preposterous!
The school has officially decided
to expel Fei Ma,
Are his parents here?
I want to stay with dad tonight,
It's been 7 years,
I could never have guessed
that I'd meet my father again
in such an awkward situation,
Sir,
We tried hard to get him in here,
Could you please
give him another chance
spare the expulsion?
We'd even take a year leave,
Fei Ma,
Let him do the year again,
we'll take that,
Please, Sir,
slap him if he dares to misbehave!
Slap him hard!
Slap me for bad parenting,
Please!
Stand up,
woman,
cut it out,
Sir,
I'll talk to him,
Sir,
My reputation is on the line,
What do I do
if people hear about this?
Seriously,
Do me a solid,
Solid?
Do you even know what a solid is?
The highest scorer in the province
was one of us!
You are absolutely right,
The kid got into Peking University
the year Gaokao was reinstated,
86
87
88
In 3 consecutive years,
the top 3 scorers in the province,
You are right,
This is my treasure cove,
I've hung the pictures
of the brilliant students on the wall,
Take a look yourselves,
And try to imagine
Fei Ma,
Will I be
hanging his picture here one day?
That would have to be an accident, then,
Fei Ma can make it,
He can absolutely make it,
Didn't I tell you to wait outside?
What are you doing here?
I won't allow you to talk about him like this,
One shall know the toil of learning,
the aptitude of students,
so that he could enlighten
and then be called a teacher,
The name of the school came from "The Book of Rites", correct?
Confucius used to say
anyone can be educated,
Yet all you care about is scores,
All your efforts are spent
trying to get rid of the underachievers
instead of helping them to catch up,
You are not worthy of the teacher title,
Great speech,
What was that?
Who are you?
Fei Ma's parent,
Haowen Ma,
I remember,
I saw you on TV,
The architect of Dong Pei bridge,
And you figured you could come in
and teach me how to teach?
The hero of our city,
Sir,
Please don't get mad,
Sorry,
I've got a class,
Please ignore him, sir,
You should go
and find him a new school,
Please!
It's for your son, don't let him miss out,
Please sir
Sir!
Why are you here, Haowen Ma?
Don't stir things up!
I almost kneeled for him,
What do you want?
Why did you do that?
He almost changed his mind,
Take your hand off me!
This kid is hopeless,
He's done,
That's it for him,
He likes kung-fu stories so much, go do kung-fu!
Mr, Yan
How come I wasn't informed
about Fei Ma's expulsion?
We should give him another chance,
The 5th item in the school's code states:
The school can act on it own
to discipline the students,
Especially
a provisional teacher,
Mr, Yan,
As his father,
I'm responsible for
Fei's disappointing performance,
I want to make you a promise,
From this day on
he'll live with me at home,
How well does he have to do
for the school to not expel him?
Ridiculous,
Preposterous!
This is within your expertise,
Are you afraid now?
Are you?
How well
will he have to do
for the school to keep him?
Fine, I'll play,
Top 10 in his class,
Top 10 in the class?
That's absolutely not possible,
Fine,
Top 10,
But not just in his class
but in his grade,
This dude
got his head bumped in prison,
Not only top 10 in his year
I'll also bet that
when he leaves the school,
he'll be the best student the school has ever seen,
You'll hang his picture on your wall,
According to Mr, Yan
He had mentored about 123,000 students
and met nearly 40,000 parents,
He knew then and there
that this fresh-out-of-prison parent
with a dirty plastic sack
was special,
Go ahead
let yourself go!
You don't seem to respect yourself at all!
Without getting into college,
you'll end up like that crazy person,
Top 10 in your grade,
Wake yourself up!
Look at yourself,
Do you look like a top 10?
What does a top 10 look like?
Round, square,
or horseshoe face?
People always say
he's got my nose and brows
and your face shape,
So you are absolutely right,
Everyone deserves dignity,
It's okay to criticize him,
but don't you shame him in public,
I'm his mother, It's for his own good,
It's for his own good
is the most
horrendous excuse,
It's for your own good,
Why don't you shame yourself for 2 hours
in front of the mirror every day?
No problem,
I promise,
Could you be quiet?
Alright, yes I understand,
Xinyu, Xinyu, Xinyu
We've got trouble,
Big trouble!
What is it?
Lao Wu of the print shop
lost his cargo of fabrics,
Lao Zhao has called the police,
What do you mean lost?
What happened?
I'm worried too!
Ask! Go ask!
He probably got scammed,
Let's go to Guangzhou immediately,
I can't go now
How about,,,
Can't you go first?
I can do that,
You are the owner,
Do what you want,
What are you looking at?
I was blind to marry him,
No way I'm marrying again,
Don't give me that face,
If it wasn't for the kid,,,
What now?
Make your phone call first!
You come with me,
I'll call,
Let me,
Son,
Mom's left,
Just the two of us now,
Your bag is unzipped,
So heavy,
You're so tall now,
So are you too cool
to talk to me now?
Won't you look at your admirable father?
Fei Ma!
Stop!
Son!
Watch out!
Are you alright?
I'm fine,
You go ahead,
Make sure you didn't break anything, buddy!
Buddy!
Why didn't you visit!
In 3 days
the HKSAR will celebrate its first national day,
A century has past
and the wandering son
has finally returned home
to the warm embrace of the motherland,
Son,
order whatever you want,
Today
we gotta treat ourselves,
Here,
Thanks,
The noodles are so expensive,
Didn't they used to be 50 cents?
How long ago must that be?
Hey man,
I didn't open the beer,
I'll trade it for an orange pop,
Okay,
And two bowls
of the beef noodles,
Extra coriander,
extra chili,
extra garlic shoot,
and extra noodles and broth,
please,
Dude,
How about you order 4 bowls,
Walking the land
Over waters and plains
Village after village I've lost count
Watching the sun
After a perfect lunch
Dad took me to a strange new place,
He said
with his experience,
getting a job here
is absolutely a piece of cake,
[ Resume ]
Darn it,
I'm so sorry about this,
It's fine, don't worry,
I can print another,
What do you think
of my resume?
Engineer Ma?
Is that you? Mr, Ma?
I admire you very much,
Really,
Xiao Liu,
Baliang
Do you remember?
I applied for a job at your company,
You interviewed me,
-- Do you remember? -- I did?
Yes!
But I -
my grades weren't good enough,
You didn't want me,
I didn't have anywhere to go,
So I started my own company,
This -
your son?
Say hello,
Hello,
Hi, how do you do,
He's like you,
handsome,
He looks like you,
Mr, Ma, what's this about?
Oh,
It's,,,it's my resume,
Re,,, resume?
Let me,
Mr, Ma
With your qualifications
search for employment here?
It's not right,
Seriously, you don't belong here,
This place,,,
Well,
Come here,
Do you know him?
No,
Who's that?
Do you?
No,
Let me introduce you,
Come here,
come over here,
everyone, come over here,
Quickly,
Those in the back,
come running,
Well
let me introduce you,
This,
Do you know him?
No,
I do!
Haowen Ma,
The well-known engineer Haowen Ma!
Everyone knows him,
Dong Pei bridge,
Haha, you see,
Collapsed without warning,
It's almost like
precise blasting,
Great,
since your kid's here
come, tell us
how did you
manage back then?
Finally I've avenged myself today,
There's no chance
I'd ever hire you,
Fei Ma,
It's okay,
I'm fine,
How much money have you pocketed?
How did a perfectly good bridge collapse?
Why does everyone say you are the bad guy?
Liar,
You cheat!
Why?
Listen to me,
There are people who say
you are an idiot,
a dumb ass
a waste of space,
don't they?
But dad believes you aren't,
I will always believe in you,
You saw the bridge I built collapse,
yes?
But your dad
will never collapse,
My son
do you believe in your dad?
Thank you,
My father used to say
as long as you believe in yourself
good luck will follow you around like a puppy,
His dubious magic tricks
finally worked this time,
Good luck
found us in no time,
Dumb asses!
A bunch of dumb asses!
Did I pay your salaries for nothing?
Did I?
Was it really that difficult?
All I wanted you to do
is to find some spots to install dynamite
not to find an adoption family,
How could you speak like that?
What?
You watch your mouth,
We are construction workers, not engineers,
That guy again,
I hate him,
The screeder needs recalibration,
Let's go, dad,
With so many on-going projects
can't you leave us with a good screeder?
Let's go, dad,
The positioning of the dynamite is crucial,
the stake is extremely high,
Wait,
This screeder
will cause trouble sooner or later,
Here, hold this,
Wait here,
Stop shouting!
Do you want the job or not?
Baliang Liu
You've taken over the renovation
of the old factory in the west suburb
and you want to
blast this storage tank,
Correct?
A right trapezoid,
For the blasting cut
He's sitting on point A
and he wants to find point B on the same plane
to locate the dynamite
correct?
It's simple as that,
For 500 yuan,
I'll do it for you in 2 minutes,
Where did this guy come from?
You can solve something none of us understand
in two minutes?
Get the heck out!
Get out of here, go! Get out!
Shut up!
If you really solve it,
I'll pay you 800,
Do you have PVC tubing?
Yes,
40 meters would be sufficient,
And a marker,
Okay,
You can time me now,
What's going on?
What's that?
Careful, dad!
800 Yuan
Pig!
I'm a stupid pig!
How come I didn't come up
with such a simple solution?
The power of knowledge,
The theory of communicating vessels,
At the same depth
the pressure of liquid is constant in every direction,
You'd have learned that in middle school physics,
Mr, Ma, Mr, Ma,
Please stay,
I already said
I admire you very much,
Right?
Look,
Your son could vouch for me,
Stay,
Let's work together,
How about it?
Give me a number,
I'd never in a thousand years
bargain with you,
In that moment I thought
"yes"
Father's bridge
has never collapsed,
Come in,
Datou Lyu
Uncle Datou was my father's favorite apprentice,
He's the most loyal person in the world,
Father knew I wanted to go home,
He said
uncle Datou will certainly help us,
Sir,
We'd better keep it down,
Don't let the neighbors see us,
If someone asks,
just say that
you opened the gate yourself,
I know nothing,
Also, uh,
Sir, please understand
this is as far as I could go,
Take your time,
But,
here you go,
You promised to design for me for free,
I'd appreciate it if you could
hand it over next Monday,
No problem,
Dad,
Your friend
really is loyal,
What do we do now?
Hurry
Close the door,
Dad!
I'm this much taller
than back then!
Dad!
Dad?
Dad
look how tall I am!
Look!
Dad!
Dad?
Look!
Look how tall I am now,
Frankly,
we did have a lousy room for the past few days,
But today
we've got the presidential suite,
Impossible,
I can never be in the top 10 of 7th grade,
Dad,
I don't want to embarrass you,
but I'm really stupid,
You'll be ashamed,
Never mind the top 10 thing,
I was bluffing,
Forget the bet,
I don't care whether you are top 10 or not,
I care about whether
your brain
is resting
or still spinning,
Have you ever thought about
what you want to do in life?
Tsinghua and Peking Universities
Mom told me,
Studying
is for the sole purpose of going to one of those,
If I fail
I'll have to make a living peddling pancakes,
No,
Top universities are the means,
not the end,
So you go to a university,
What then?
Remember
Life is like an arrow
that targets our dreams,
What's the point of shooting it
if you don't have a target?
There are countless interesting jobs in the world,
Find the one you love
and start thinking,
But where should I start
to improve my scores?
Math and Chinese are not good,
Geography and history are worse,
The worst of all
are English and biology,
That's a full plate,
So heavy,
Text books,
Alright,
Text book,
What are these then?
Extracurricular readings
Extracurricular assignments
Sample essays
Exercise books
What are you doing?
Stop!
Do you want me to die?
Look
only 11 centimeters
Until the exam
get 0,1 centimeter across each day,
My genius son
can you do it?
The way father stared at me
makes me feel like the young Hawking,
For the first time in my life
I desired to study,
Dad
So
how about you
start tutoring me now?
Then
father said something I didn't understand,
But I've been tutoring you the whole day,
Good night, son,
[ Complaint Letter ]
[ The plaintiff: Haowen Ma]
Dad,
Are you working?
Uhm
can I stay up?
You can do anything,
Don't ask for my permission
to do things,
Father said
Although parents' words are important,
what's more important
is what they do,
I thought
if young Hawking can't
even handle 0,1 cm each day
what kind of genius is he?
After that
I started a new life with my father,
He produced many blueprints for uncle Datou
and I
discovered that as long as I pay attention
the seemingly boring stuff on the blackboard
could be so refreshing and interesting,
Every evening
we'd run like mad men in the field,
Father said
real learning
is driven by interest,
I love it!
Yes?
My height grew every month,
[ Keep Thinking ]
Keep on with the reconstruction
it'll stand for a hundred years,
At the same time
something else grew,
My boy!
You are awesome!
Every time mom wrote
to ask about how I did at school
father always said
Don't worry,
he's attending the best tutoring classes in the city,
Galaxy tutoring,
Genius!
You did great
more than great!
How far is China from the Information Highway?
One and an half kilometers,
With just a bit of effort
you've become
the 5th from the bottom,
What would happen
if you put in more effort!
Dad
is that really a compliment?
I said this a long time ago
your intellect
is only inferior to me,
So then
Can I have a computer?
586
with a sound card,
Why do I feel like
I'm being tricked here?
Mom,
This is low even for you,
I suspected nothing before Mr, Yan called,
What are you doing?
Haowen Ma, I'm telling you
Fei is not your lab rat,
He's already slow,
Why would you insist on teaching him what you know?
Why would you do that?
He's not slow at all,
I want him to learn not only the knowledge,
but also the mindset,
The methods,
Do you know how other kids get tutored?
Do you know how difficult it is to get into a good school?
Don't you know
I broke my back laboring for money?
I raised him during the 7 years
you were in prison,
And within two months
you've ruined him,
You want him to be another you?
What if he can't support himself,
what do we do then?
Look at me!
Argue with me!
Why are you like this?
Talk to me!
Cat got your tongue?
Answer me!
I can't,
Your questions
only time can answer,
Children don't have
real worries,
Once asleep,
all is forgotten,
Father said
when you could still give off a glow
from the dark you are in
then you are a true grown up,
I had no idea
that he was worrying about money daily,
currencies lost value,
mass unemployment,
Since last month,
commodity prices sky rocketed,
the stock prices has decreased 10%,
The exchange rate plunged,
the currency exchange market
was closed within 5 minutes today,
Branches upward to the sky
Roots deep in the soil
Head held high in the storm
Standing strong in the hail and snow
Watch in silence
Happiness and pain
Want this watch?
Creating a soothing shade over the world
- ,,,that's how you spread love, - Police!
A great tree
An emerald blessing
You aspire to the blue sky
Your love buried deep
Dad, I'm home,
Nobody touches
What's this?
Whoa,
586
My God
where did you get it?
Aliens gifted it,
Dad you're so cool,
What's wrong?
Nothing,
It's nothing,
I got a scratch
at the construction site,
Do you like it?
Very much!
All I need to hear,
Hello,
I could barely
keep up with you,
I've wanted to meet you for a long time!
You gotta pay attention to this,
Fei Ma never hands in his assignment on time,
He,,,
Nobody in the class does this,
And he says it's because you allowed this?
Mr, Ma
don't forget your bet with Mr, Yan,
Clock's ticking,
He's gonna be expelled,
Food!
Sit,
Mr, Ma
Yes,
You know, other students,
they work on their assignments
until 11 at night,
And you let him play on the computer?
Sorry?
That trouble maker,
How dare he!
What are his assignments?
Preview of the new materials
Okay,
and review of the past materials,
Okay,
We hope that
the student will repeatedly
Go over the class materials, to memorize them,
Right,
Repeat, repeat, repeat,
Like this steamed bun,
When it's done steaming
heat it up repeatedly,
Repeat, repeat, repeat,
Do you think it'll taste better than when it was fresh?
I understand what the school wants,
I don't disapprove of a moderate amount of
preview and review,
But forcing them to work until midnight everyday
at their most active stage of life,
and keep on like that for a decade,,,
wouldn't you worry
that will destroy
their interest in learning?
Can't you see
the weariness in their eyes?
You know
every child has this hidden receptor
on them
that allows them to detect
whether the intentions from the adults
are out of love,
This is me,
Thank you,
Goodbye,
Wait,
Regarding home education
you do have a point,
But your steamed buns
were awful,
I would volunteer
to help
with Fei's diet if you don't mind,
For kids his age
growth of the mind is important
but growth of the body takes high priority,
Goodbye,
Old memories gone with the wind
Fresh sentiments stay in the mind
Once again I want to hold your hand
The foliage thinned in the late autumn
I learned that you are not the purpose of my life
Looking back
The reluctant smiles
Memories in the wind
Mr, Yan,
How is Fei Ma doing?
How did he do in the midterm?
Not bad,
He's made it to the fifth from the bottom,
But more importantly
this kid
has got a glint in his eyes,
I have to warn you, Miss Gao,
Don't take the wrong side,
Tolerating a bad student
is the biggest injustice to the good ones,
I've heard rumors
about you on campus recently,
As a young female teacher
you should be mindful
of your relationships,
I'm sorry?
Who is it?
Tell him to say it to my face,
Tell me, who said that?
Calm down, calm down,
Just be mindful, regardless,
Fine, fine, On another note
I will come for a daily check-up in your class
starting tomorrow,
Also,
all of Fei's assignments and exam papers
have to go through me,
I'll correct them myself,
Why?
I'm his teacher,
And I'm the head of teaching,
I'm telling you
however hard you wash it,
no lump of coal can become a diamond,
What is it, dad?
We're gonna be late,
Just 10 minutes,
We'll make it,
Sorry, Miss,
Miss Gao,
Mr, Yan, morning,
Morning,
You always ask
why you couldn't produce good essays
even after reading a lot,
I'll ask you this
do you like to wear second-hand shoes?
What's the most important thing in writing?
Truthfulness,
Experience the world with your heart,
Write whatever you feel in the process,
Write what you believe,
Here,
Smell this grass,
Not that
that's cow dung,
The poems you learned from Chinese classes
The royal streets are moistened
by a cream-like rain
Green grass can be perceived afar but not nearby
Look
do you see the green in the back?
And when you look closely
doesn't it look faded?
True,
So
this is what the poem was about,
Open your eyes and observe,
The world is beautiful,
Dad,,,
Dad,
Dad, come out!
Don't want to?
Just you wait!
Let's see how well you do this time,
Good morning, miss,
Dad?
Hopeless,
Halt!
Stop!
I'm telling you to stop!
Stop,
No reason to run
at the sight of us,
Take it out,
- Hand it over! - What's in it?
Come on,
Give me,
Stay still,
It's been a while
where have you been?
Stay still!
Miss,
Miss Gao,
You are taller now,
Let him go!
Get back to school, you hear me?
You'll be late,
Stay where you are!
Don't move!
I told you to stay away!
Thugs,
Go
run!
Quickly,
Don't you trust me?
Don't look back, run!
Give me your backpack,
Backpack!
No!
Boyu School
is not a kindergarten!
Teacher Tianxiang Gao
violated the school policy
and tolerates delinquent students,
I propose,
for the next 3 years,
withdraw her offer of full employment,
Dad,
bad news,
Because of me,
miss Gao was punished,
Mr, Yan said
he will be at the exam room
personally for the finals,
I'll be expelled immediately if I lose the bet,
Dad,
It's not that I didn't try,
But I really don't want to study anymore,
It's impossible,
Dad,
I'd rather sell pancakes,
It's too difficult,
I told you they are here,
Did you confess about the bridge collapse?
I thought you were burglars,
You are right,
How dare you stick around here!
I won't back down!
Try me!
I won't back down!
What are you doing?
Come on!
Come at me!
Come!
Come on!
That was the only time
I'd seen him with such rage,
I didn't know
if he said it to me
or to himself,
Never
back down,
I'm late,
I got up late,
Why didn't you wake me?
I'll start cooking,
[ Dad: I'll be like you, never back down, ]
Dad,
I'm only allowed to bring one item,
I brought this,
Like everything I did before that exam
I did my best,
Didn't you say
I was unprepared?
I traveled there again last week,
These are the latest measurements
in the field,
You've seen these,
These are the
measurements I provided
at the construction of
the Dong Pei bridge,
The two sets of numbers don't match,
With my technical measurements
the construction quality
could have been guaranteed,
I've told you many times
Go to court, to court,
But the judge said
we need to audit the project
and give a safety report,
Otherwise,
there's insufficient evidence,
They can't process it,
I know,,,
Thanks in advance
for your help this time,
It's nothing,
Please, it's very important,
Ask them to issue the request on paper
and we'll put it
on the agenda for our next meeting,
Okay,
Are you serious?
I've already provided dozens of documents
and you kick me around like a soccer ball,
Mr, Dong
What now
Please,
Get your hands off me,
Please,
Get your hands off me!
Mr, Dong,
Let,,,
Let go!
- What are you doing!? - Stop it!
Get out!
I came here dozens of times,
dozens of times already,
Leave, now!
Dozens of times!
Please, help me with it,
Dozens of times,
Dad, dad,
There's gonna be an aerospace exhibition in Nanhai,
Aerospace,
Dad
Aerospace exhibition,
jet performance,
and this
the latest model in China,
Flying Leopard,,,
JH-7 fighter bomber,
Look,
Stop it!
Nonsense!
Do better in the exam!
Don't embarrass me!
Could you do that?
I hate you!
Fei Ma!
Dad drew you a portrait,
Hello?
Still mad?
Little Fei?
If you really like something
then never give it up
no matter what others say,
I'm sorry, son,
This is the first time
for me to be a father,
That's why
I make mistakes,
Are you prepared for the finals?
I tried,
But
there's no way I can make top 10,
Perfect,
Exactly what I wanted to hear,
Come,
Let's go,
Come with me,
Go,
You what?
Take Fei out of school for two weeks for an exhibition?
Yes,
No,
Why not?
The finals are coming,
Didn't you promise Mr, Yan a top 10 student?
Other kids are working their asses off,
This is the most important moment in Fei's life,
No,
This is not the most important moment,
Absolutely not,
Every second of every day
every day of his life
is equally important,
He has to understand his purpose,
I will tutor him on the road,
Please have faith
in a father's love to his son,
Miss Gao,
Miss Gao?
Miss Gao
is no longer
responsible for Fei's class,
Please
respect the policies of the school,
Mr, Fei Ma,
Dad!
All students are required
to stay boarded at the school during finals,
Under the supervision of the school,
Irrelevant personnel
are not allowed on campus,
Dad!
Leave!
Dad!
Mr, Fei Ma,
time to study,
Come take a walk
Set off at dawn
Dreams were broken
No fear left in my heart
Where's Fei Ma?
I said
where is Fei Ma?
Who knows
where Fei Ma went?
I'll give everything to find it
Even pay for it with sorrow
Perhaps on the other side of this river of woe
I could reach it tomorrow
All my life I've been looking for it
Without a doubt
that was the sweetest time of my life,
Dad took me to many places
I'd only seen on TV,
We studied during the night
traveled during the day,
The things I learned can never be found in books,
When we reached the city of Nanhai,
the aerospace exhibition was on its final day,
Tickets for the air show were long gone,
But my father
found a better spot for us
on a hillside nearby,
I realized
that I had an answer now
for the question dad once asked,
Dad,
Dad?
Dad!
We are arriving,
You didn't eat anything yet,
Ever since my earliest memory
dad has been like a generator
that's always running at full capacity,
This is the first time I've seen him
fast asleep,
I know for sure that was a turning point for me,
The moment I realized that grown ups
need to be taken care of, too,
Zhuge station,
Please step off,
Dad!
Fei Ma?
Fei Ma!
Dad!
Fei Ma!
Sir, stop the bus!
Stop!
Dad!
Fei Ma!
Dad!
Fei Ma!
Dad,,,
For a set of special circumstances
Dad where are you?
I wasn't able to stay and wait for him,
All of this
started with the storm,
According to the history books
it was a once in a century storm,
Everyone, evacuate!
Hurry! Evacuate!
Whose kid is this?
It's flooding,
come on
come with me!
I want to wait for my dad,
This lousy weather, raining non-stop,
I'm reporting live from the flooding region,,,
- It's seven past ten,,, - Is your back okay?
I told you to leave the heavy labor to others,
- They are leaving the facility in order, - Fei Ma!
The soldiers of the liberation army must
transport the relief materials to safety,
The weather is extreme
but they are unflinching,
In seven hours
rainfall will reach 180 millimeters,
180 millimeters means
overflowing in the fields
we saw on our way here,
Fei Ma!
Let the civilians go first!
Please evacuate now,
Fei Ma!
Mom! Mom!
Mom
Mom,,,
Baby!
Where did you go?
Did you see my son?
He went that way,
Right, this tall,
About this tall,
where did you see him?
Over there,
There?
Over there by himself,
Over there?
Yes, I'm sure!
Fei Ma!
Dad!
I was trapped in the flood for three days,
Anyone there?
I ran with the crowd like my life depended on it,
but soon I found,,,
Anyone there?
,,,I was the only one,
Everyone evacuate now!
Hey, where are you going?
My son's in there,
I'm his father
I need to go,
Go?
You won't be able to come back!
The peak flow will be here in an hour!
What about my son?
He's in there!
Get him out of here!
No, I can't leave,
- I can't, no way! - Come on, comrade,
- Get him out! - Come on,
I'm his father!
Comrade,
really, I can't go,
Listen
listen to me,
Comrade,
Listen to me, just listen,
Just one second,
I only have one thing to say,
Comrade,
Fei Ma!
Watch out!
It's dangerous!
Let me say this
Wait!
Fei Ma!
Fei Ma, it's your dad!
I don't know if you can hear me!
This is dad!
Dad!
I'm here!
Help me!
If you can hear me
look around you!
Dad!
If you can hear me
see what's around you!
Dad!
Find a way!
Use your head!
Think of a way to get yourself out!
You can do it!
,,, I'll hold you responsible!
Got it, Copy,
Son!
You can make it!
The peak is arriving early,
It's going to be here in 15 minutes,
Last order!
Get out!
Everyone
go!
Check thoroughly!
Is there anyone left?
Go!
Just go, comrade!
You go first!
Come on!
Son!
Dad!
My son!
I'm here!
Hold on to the rope!
Help me!
A broken loose door
could be a substitute dinghy,
Rope
can be replaced by bed sheets,
Building a dinghy
is not taught in any of the text books,
but a teenager should be able to
figure it out,
If
he is used to thinking independently
and living courageously,
Commander
Now that the insulation tiles are damaged
our only hope
is to adopt a lifting re-entry,
As long as we can re-establish communication,
we will be able to obtain the new orbital data,
I volunteer
to go and examine
the relay antenna from the outside,
Absolutely not,
What you proposed
I've already considered,
But the oxygen level of the spacesuit
can only hold up for 4 minutes,
You won't make it
before fixing the antenna,
Fei Ma
Your father
lost you once in the flood,
I don't want to
lose you again in outer space,
Don't shut the door!
Hold up!
Hold up for a second,
there's still one more,
One more kid,
One second, he's coming,
One second, coming,
Do your best!
Come on!
Come on, son,
Come on , you're gonna be late,
Open the gate and let my son in,
Son,
Here!
Son!
Here!
How did you do?
It's okay, son,
OK,
Come on, come,
Here,
Come on,
Soon came the day of the reveal,
This time
I'm confident,
I thought I stood a chance for making top 10 in my grade,
Dad!
I'm here,
Congrats, Fei Ma
for making it to the 65th of the grade,
I have to say
you did make strides
Mr, Fei Ma
from the bottom of the ranking!
But
rules are to be respected,
Each student and parent has to stand by their word,
Am I right?
What are you doing?
The education bureau officials' reception is today,
Don't make trouble,
Get lost!
Go!
Go away!
Let go!
Go!
Go away!
Let go!
Come!
Come at me!
Come!
Stop it!
Meng
What are you doing?
Nothing,
How dare you mess with my son!
Kid,
remember this!
You may not have much,
but you've got dads!
Ask around in Dong Pei,
Your uncle Meng
has got nothing
but a good reputation,
We are not interested in going to a school
that doesn't want us,
Transfer!
So many good schools
we'll take our pick!
It's okay, uncle Meng,
I'll get in myself,
I can do it,
Get in,
Wait!
Fei Ma's final score is 641,
That's 21 points from 10th place in his grade,
Now the only problem
is on the essay portion,
86', 87', 88'
three consecutive years,
Mr, Yan,
This is my son's Chinese exam paper,
You gave him a 0 on his essay,
I don't want to argue about it,
I just want him
to read his essay to everyone here,
Is that allowed?
Title
Time not to be missed,
Life
could be short
or long,
What's a time not to be missed?
My father
used to be a great bridge architect,
But he made a substantial error
and was jailed for it,
Is there
a worse father than him?
He stayed
in prison for 2483 days,
Missed out on my childhood entirely,
He always says
if only
I could turn back time,
Now,
what's a time not to be missed
for a whole nation?
Try to imagine
the forbidden city from a hundred years ago,
the first time the empress rode in a car,
Obviously,
she was not impressed
by modern technology,
God bless me,
Little Yan,
Here, your majesty,
This horse must have eaten a lot
to run so fast!
Take it out,
ban it permanently!
Missing out on science and technology
had led our nation
down a long and windy path,
Your majesty,
With science a nation thrives,
Decades from now
the super powers will no doubt expand to outer space,
I want to apply for funding
to build a spaceship in advance,
Spaceship?
What's that?
Ridiculous!
Preposterous!
With a gravity wave antenna
and an electronic warp engine,
we can definitely push beyond the speed of light,
If each one of us can try harder
the world will change for us,
Your majesty
this time I will ride out personally,
Destination:
Mars,
Ridiculous!
Preposterous!
The solution sheet clearly indicates
the topic of the essay
should be
how one should place higher value
on time spent studying,
Completely off topic
is what this essay is,
Nothing's on point,
It doesn't stand a chance
even with re-evaluation,
Objection,
I don't think there's a correct answer,
The essay he read
I think it's beautiful,
I'm moved,
Beauty,
does it have a correct definition?
You'll see whether it does when he fails Gaokao,
Sure I can give it a higher score
but what about the other graders?
Should a child fail to get admitted to college
won't parents like yourselves
blame it all on us teachers?
I grew up in a small village,
I went to the normal university in '63,
I had nothing when I went to university!
Children from my village
don't even have shoes to wear,
I always say
a person only has one chance to turn their life around,
While you are not making an effort,
the children with no shoes
are making the kind of efforts you can't even imagine,
I understand your point completely,
I can see your genuine concern
for the children,
How about this,
Let's talk about the exam paper,
There are 4 choices
for every multiple choice question,
A B C D
This is fine,
But will there always be 4 obvious options
available for them to choose
when they encounter real problems in life?
Knowing the right answer from ABCD is important,
What's more important
is that the children should be able
to come up with
the E F G
the H I J K L M N,
Whatever the circumstances,
when our children can always come up with the XYZs
that's when
they can master their own fate,
Good point,
What does he mean?
You present an interesting argument,
It's representative, too,
How about this,
Let's score the essay
again, separately,
No way this can get a high score,
I'll lay my opinions bare,
From our previous experience,
giving this essay a zero
should raise no questions whatsoever,
And that
is also what we've got now
from three different teachers,
Each marked the essay zero,
Son,
Let's go home,
But,
Three other teachers
gave the essay full marks,
Judging according to the reformed education framework,
the quality of the essay,
the extent of knowledge,
and the imagination expressed in the writing
impressed the teachers a lot,
Aside from that,
we also have teachers who marked it 20
25
28
even 35,
That's from me,
I did the calculation,
The average should be
22,8
Bravo!
Don't mind me,
you go ahead,
Everyone
isn't this exactly what we need to consider
about the education reform?
Mr, Yan
in my opinion,
kids with critical thinking ability like him
should be encouraged,
It'll benefit the nation in the long term,
What's going on?
This is the special campus event of the year,
The only celebration allowed by Mr, Yan,
These are the students
who have just achieved their goals
in the Gaokao exams,
After toiling for so many years
they've finally made it,
Why shouldn't they
celebrate their successes?
I wonder if they really do enjoy learning at all
if they throw away
the text books so enthusiastically
right after the exams are done,
Shouldn't learning be something one does all their life?
Their future,,,
They will have the most brilliant future,
Far better than the one you are living,
A thousand
ten thousand times better,
Our students are the best of the best,
No one can say otherwise,
You've all seen the pictures on my wall,,,
Then who is he?
Who?
Who let him in?
Who?
Get that lunatic out of here!
Now you want him out?
Mr, Yan,
do you know why
there's a picture frame missing from your wall?
Why?
That's none of your business,
Many people at Boyu know
but nobody dares to talk about it,
He
is your son,
You adopted him
from the orphanage when he was 3,
Agh,
You raised him with all your fatherly love
and he didn't disappoint,
He became the first provincial highest scorer from Boyu,
Eight years ago,
it was he who handed me the torch in the relay,
However in his sophomore year,
he encountered some difficulties for the first time,
and wanted to talk with you
about a failed exam,
You completely ignored him,
The poor kid
chose another path,
Sir,
You devoted your life to education,
I respect you very much as a teacher,
We are both fathers,
Can we ever say
we take no responsibility
for all of this
in front of our children?
Whenever I ran into challenges
in the years that followed
I'd remember that afternoon with shredded paper in the air,
He's right,
The things I'm experiencing now
matter very little
compared to everything
I will be experiencing in my life ahead of me,
Recently
Hongkong celebrity Leslie Cheung
passed away at the age
of 46,
Fei Ma,
You are the front runner
for the top scorer
in our school,
I have a request,
Could you please
not apply for the flight academy?
The bet I had with your father
about whether you could be a top student,,,
Now,
I give in,
Fei Ma
Look
I've already prepared this,
Only you
can help Boyu
re-gain its past glory,
Let's say that I,,,
I beg you!
My father used to say
a person
has to do what they are passionate about,
Mr, Yan
I'm sorry,
In the end
I'd been admitted to the flight academy,
while other students were still preparing for the exam,
Dad!
Haowen Ma!
Dad!
I got in!
Sorry?
I got in!
Time flies as one gets older,
I went from a pilot to a Taikonaut
but my father never visited me,
We both knew
what his greatest regret was
until
the spring of that year,
News from March 14th
renowned physicist
Stephen Hawking passed away
at the age of 76,
Hawking said
it would not be much of a universe
if it wasn't home to the people you love,
We will miss him,
If it wasn't
for the factory bankruptcy
I would never listened to you,
Are you turning against me?
Try that again
I'll tell everyone about the Dong Pei bridge,
about what you did that summer
behind Haowen Ma's back,
I'll spill it all!
Shush,
Shush what!
I'll spill everything,
Lower your voice!
You are such a coward, Datou Lyu,
That poor devil,
You ask him to produce blueprints
all the while calling him Sir,,,
I'm telling you
Here's a hundred thousand
Here's a hundred and fifty,
Count it,
Why!
Mr, Ma! Mr, Ma!
Why!
I'm sorry,
Why!
I'm sorry,
Why!
I'm sorry,
Get up!
Ma! Ma!
What is this about?
Let go!
Let go of me!
Ma, come on!
Let go!
Come on, Ma!
Let me go!
This was the second time my father got on the news,
This time,
he was only taken in for 15 days,
Commander,
The committee has decided
on the shortlist,
And you're on it,
Commander Pan,
you're the best!
Okay, okay, okay,
I'm the best,
Here's something better,
Okay,
[ From torch carrier to prisoner ]
[ Insights to the bridge collapse incident ]
Your old man?
Do you know what it means to be up there?
Being under the spotlight,
means every detail of your past will be scrutinized,
Could you
keep him out of the news?
This is for his own good,
Fei Ma,
Dad!
So this is a surprise,
Perfect,
Stay for a few days,
I'll give you a good tour around our base,
What?
You didn't grow any taller,
What for? I'm already an adult,
Dad,
I'm shortlisted,
Really?
You are the greatest,
Another bit of news,
This will make you even happier,
The court
has accepted my application to appeal,
Dad,
Listen to me,
I know something that could be useful,
The deputy manager
at the factory was jailed
for embezzlement
and he has the books,
If we could get him to cooperate
my case
will have a good chance to flip,
Dad,
Could you let it go?
The bridge has already collapsed,
Even if you turn your case around,
there won't be any substantial compensation,
Probably restore your name at most,
So many years have passed,
No one cares anymore,
Except you,
Dad,
Let's move on,
I understand,
Completely,
Thank you, son
for your concerns,
Dad,
That's right,
You raised me single-handedly,
If I get selected in the end
then all the honor
will be yours,
Also,
you and miss Gao
have been married for over a decade,
time for a decent wedding ceremony,
I'm a proud man,
I'm a very proud man,
Ever since the collapse of the bridge
I've had nothing
to be proud of in my life,
Only you,
My son,
I thought myself an adequate educator,
How laughable,
Only now do I realize
that my attempts to educate you
have failed,
A complete failure,
Fei Ma,
Everyone has his own bridge,
To keep your bridge standing,
to me,
that's the most important thing,
Dad,
Relax,
I,,,
I,,, I
I would never get in your way,
Trust me,
If anyone asks,
tell them,,,
tell them
that you haven't
heard from him
ever since he was in prison,
No wonder
your father was absent
the day of the launch,
I didn't even notify him,
[ Dad: I'll be like you, never back down, ]
Fei Ma!
What are you trying to do?
Answer me!
What are you doing?
Come back!
That's an order!
Turn back immediately!
Commander,
I will not miss the chance
to take the necessary risk,
Fei Ma
According to the external monitor,
the cause of the antenna damage
is a loose base plate,
Take the route from the orbital module,
I suggest
you take the route on the side of the flag
where there are more hand rails,
I'm in front of the monitor now,
Your three minute count down starts now,
You must replace the base plate
of the antenna before time runs out,
That way
you'll still have a minute to return,
Otherwise the oxygen in the suit will run out,
Buddy,
you'll become space debris,
Nice,
Now
you're in the blind spot,
You're on your own,
I have faith in you,
If you can hear me
Dad!
look around you!
Think!
You can make it! You can get out!
You can make it!
Fei Ma
Your timing is good
Fix the antenna quickly
and you'll have plenty of time to return,
You can come back now,
The signal is back!
Great! We've got the signal back!
The signal is back!
Dad,
Your education wasn't a failure,
Beijing, Beijing,
Shuguang No, 16
has successfully restored the re-entry system,
Let's go home now,
Telemetry's good,
The ship has entered a return trajectory,
Real-time guidance data from Beijing has become available,
They're back,
Go China! Go China!
After the ship was assaulted by space debris,
the young taikonaut Fei Ma
has achieved a miracle
with his wits and courage
and made his mark on history,
Daddy!
Qiaqia!
Qiaqia,
come here!
Qiaqia,
Did you miss daddy?
Yes!
Let me
see your teeth,
It's coming out,
Dad,
I'm sorry,
It's the first time for me to be a son, too,
I never thought
that the first thing he'd say
to me
after all these years would be
What an awesome trick!
Could you do it again?
[ For fathers ]
[ For children ]
[Ma Fei was awarded as an "Heroic Taikonaut"] [and given the "Distinguished Medal of Honor"]
I watched you [The verdict in Ma Haowen's case]
soar across the sky, [was repealed, his honor restored,]
Fighter jets roared pass,
On the river a bridge takes me to you,
Fly on,
Do not look back,
My eyes will always be
on your golden wings
So vast and brilliant the galaxy
so proud that you are like me
Lean on my shoulders, when you've lost your way
Don't hesitate to come back
in your hardest times,
I was once like you are now
My child
Take it easy
I know time and its intricacies
I know I have to go
Thank you, my child
you taught me what love is
Thank you for giving me strengths
So vast and brilliant the galaxy
so proud that you are like me
Nothing can sever our bond
You will be stronger
once again we embrace like before
Take all my strengths
How vast and brilliant the galaxy
so proud that you are like me
Nothing can sever our bond
You will be stronger
once again we embrace like before
Take all my strengths
