The special tribute drama "The Curved Bay" for the 20th anniversary of Macao's return from 1999 to 2019 tells the story of how the gentle breeze of the Pacific Ocean has been blowing over Macao Island for a hundred years without changing anything. However, a wind at the last moment of the last century changed the fate of Macao Island. It blew Macao Island back into the embrace of the motherland, and the fate of Macao people also changed accordingly. Up to now, it has been nearly two decades since Macao returned to the motherland. A group of Macao people, represented by Huang Zijian, Biao Shu and Yu, have been the participants and witnesses of this transformation. They have experienced the inferior social status of the Chinese during the Portuguese-Macao government period, as well as economic decline and social unrest. They have lived in anxiety and confusion, suffering and wandering because they cannot see a future. After the return, Macao people governed Macao under the principle of "one country, two systems". The stories that happened to them witnessed the central government, in the face of the global financial crisis, implementing a series of policies such as opening up gambling rights through the Gambling Law and allowing free travel in some provinces and cities on the Chinese mainland, which stimulated and drove the economic development of Macao in adverse circumstances. Another once-in-a-century hurricane also caused unprecedented damage to Macao. The support from the mainland and the deployment of the troops stationed in Macao to fight the disaster with all their might made the people of Macao feel the warmth of the motherland even more. The changes in their destinies over the past decade or so have witnessed the greatness of the motherland.[Collapse]
