The play begins with the birth of New China and ends with Deng Xiaoping's visit to the United States and the return negotiations between China, Britain and Hong Kong. It mainly describes the outstanding contributions of Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, Deng Xiaoping and Chen Yi, the older generations of proletarian revolutionaries, to the diplomatic cause of New China. They are unique in their super-high diplomatic strategic thinking, flexible diplomatic skills. Diplomatic style and superhuman talent have won great honor and lofty international status for New China. The play fully shows a series of magnificent diplomatic facts such as the Geneva Conference, the Asia-Africa Conference, Zhou En's visit to Africa and the resumption of UN seats. It also shows the difficult and tortuous course of New China's diplomacy.—Louis M
