After the liberation of Shanghai, the Eighth Company of a certain unit of the People's Liberation Army was assigned the task of standing guard on Nanjing Road. Third Platoon leader Chen Xi (played by Ma Xueshi) couldn't stand the influence of the bourgeois "aroma", looked down upon his wife Chunni (played by Tao Yuling) who came to visit him from the countryside, and couldn't stand the dark-faced eighth platoon leader Zhao Dada (played by Yuan Yue). Gradually, he lost the fine quality of hard work and simplicity of our army. Tong Anan (played by Liao Youliang), a new soldier from Shanghai, has a strong sense of liberalism and leaves without asking for leave. After being criticized by his company commander Lu Dacheng (played by Gong Zipi), he leaves without a second thought. Squad Leader Zhao Dada, however, couldn't stand the murky atmosphere on the Shanghai beach and insisted on going to the front line. [Collapse]
