In the late 1970s, eighteen farmers in Xiaogang Village, Fengyang County, Anhui Province, risked their heads to press the red handprints of their land contract responsibility agreements. This move shocked the whole country and thus opened the curtain on China's reform and opening up. Nearly three decades have passed in the blink of an eye. From Xiaogang Village to all parts of the country, earth-shaking changes have taken place. Who would have thought that the story of collectively pressing handprints would once again take place in Xiaogang Village? In 2004, Xiaogang Village welcomed a new first secretary of the Party branch, Shen Hao (played by Yang Lixin). Shen Hao is cheerful, open-minded, impartial and selfless. He devotes himself wholeheartedly to his work and practices the Scientific Outlook on Development with concrete actions. Grandma Wu (played by Huang Suying) went from being puzzled to trusting her, and the troublemaker Yang Defu (played by He Bing) went from causing trouble to being sincerely convinced. Even if it was initially received by the wife? Wang Xiaoqin (played by Xu Fan) and her daughter Wangwang (played by Li Ruosi) had complaints, but Shen Hao left an indelible and glorious image in the hearts of the villagers of Xiaogang Village with his upright character... This film is adapted from the true story of a real person.[Collapse]
