Xiao Li gets leave to see his family, and discovers that much of life has returned to "normal." Ashamed at being denied party membership, he volunteers to be a one-man production unit, doing backbreaking work near an isolated village. Following a serious illness he is summoned to the Department of Propaganda, which wants him to use his cartoons to bring Deng Xiaoping Thought to the masses. His superiors anger him by insisting that he soften the hardships of the army and the poor. But his work is published nationwide, finally bringing party membership. At last he is worthy of his father.
