We were like you.
We were an isolated country.
Then trade began.
For our spices, silks, tea.
But there was nothing that we,
the Chinese, wanted from the West.
So they gave us something
to want: Opium. We craved opium.
They tried to use it
to destroy us, the imperialists.
We are here to rescue you
from imperialists,
or they'll do the same to you.
You cannot imagine,
sitting here,
where I came from.
The floods,
the famines,
were so bad.
China was fragmented.
Society was crumbling.
There was a day
before the war...
when I came upon a man
with a dead baby.
He was gonna cook it.
He shouted, "It died.
I did not kill it. It died."
That is what it was like
in China before Chairman Mao.
