With the taglines 'China creation' and 'China invention' as its axis, the story follows the scientific achievements in the development of China's manufacturing. Set against a 7-year backdrop from 2012 to 2019, three families and three generations embody the spirit of a true artisan. Lin Jie, Li Bin and many others represent young technological talents who start on the path of innovation to achieve their dreams. Returning from overseas, Lin Jie falls in love with a female college student as they get to know each other through work.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
