Our Nineties

The story begins in 1998 in Qingjianghe Village. Zhao Xiaolong, a rural boy, and Zhang Chi, the son of a volunteer teacher from the provincial capital, became friends because of an unexpected mathematics competition. One holds an ancestral abacus and is gifted but trapped in reality; the other is proficient in operating a calculator and has a broad vision but is not accustomed to the local environment. Two completely different worlds collide here, and then intersect with the life trajectories of urban children Chen Hao and Lin Haoxuan, weaving a vivid and true picture of the growth of China's post-90s generation.
