How the Post-80s Grew Up

The label “post-80s” was once a controversial term that people born in the 1980s resisted. It stands for rebellion and responsibility. But the perception has changed with the time, the post-80s image has in recent years rehabilitated, for the young generation’s effort to prove themselves.

“80后”這個標志曾經是一個有爭議的名詞，它代表著出生于1980年以后的人。80后是叛逆和不負責任的象征。但是隨著時間的流逝，人們改變了這樣的印象，80后印象最近年來得到了重新的塑造，因為年輕一代的努力證明了他們自己。
The film Post-80s, by first-time director Li Fangfang, reflects this situation. The film tells a story of an orphaned girl, as she grows from a 16 year-old high school student into a 27 year-old professional. The fighting girl gives the post-80s new image, they are positive to life, fighting for their future with continuous effort.

有一部電影叫《80后》，是導演李芳芳的處女作，就反映了這樣的情況。電影講述了一個失去雙親女孩的故事，她16歲從一所高中成長為一個27歲的教授。這個奮斗著的女孩給80后帶來了新的印象，他們對生活樂觀，為了將來而不停的奮斗著。

Now when people talk about the post-80s, they are no longer meant to the negative impression, they praise for this generation, for their effort to overcome the great pressure in today’s competitive world. The post-80s are no more the princess and princes, they have grown up, they are the future and the country’s hosts.
現在當人們談到80后的時候，他們不再意味著消極的印象，人們贊揚這一代，因為80后付出努力，來克服今天競爭激烈的世界帶來的壓力。80后不再是王子和公主，他們已經成長，他們是未來，也是國家的主人。

The post-80s have grown up, they are fearless and find their own places in this world. I belong to this generation, and I am so proud of that.
80后已經長大，他們無所畏懼，在世界上找到了他們自己的位置。我屬于這一代，為此我很自豪。
