"The Blue Bird Has No Crossing"
On the streets of May 4th in 1919, Gu Lingyun, the son of an industrialist who had returned from studying abroad, broke his glasses while trying to save the female student Su Wanqing. In the blur of the moment, her clear eyes became the only clarity in his chaotic world.
He is an industrialist who saves the country and bears the expectations of his family. She is a new woman who escapes the old destiny. The resonance of their thoughts led the two to get to know each other in Peiping, but they were separated by a marriage contract. She went south to Shanghai to set up a girls' school, while he practiced his ideals in the ups and downs of the business world.
The war of resistance broke out and Shanghai fell. In order to protect important materials and underground networks, Gu Lingyun put on a "traitor" mask and became a top lurker codenamed "Blue Bird". Among the countless infamy he suffered, the most painful one came from Su Wanqing's profound misunderstanding.
She moved west with her students and persisted in running the school during the war, but she didn't know that every piece of information she conveyed was closely related to the "traitor"'s guardianship in the dark night. When she deciphered the truth in the top-secret cable, she realized that the eyes that she had hated so much were always staring at the light in the darkest place.
This is a silent smoke wrapped in cheongsam and suit. It is a tragic intertwining of the ideals of saving the country through industry and rejuvenating the country through education in the bloody era. In 1949 at the Huangpu River pier, the sirens were wailing - can the rift that began on the streets of May Fourth be finally healed and reunited at the dawn of a new era?
