Hailang Li, a rebellious juvenile, is engrossed with video games for which he often escapes from school. He cannot understand why his mother works hard selling vegetables to make a living.

Driven to despair, the mother beats her child with a heavy hand for the very first time. The rebelling Hailang Li decides to sell tomatoes himself for one day to prove to his mother that he is capable of making a living by himself.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 4

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
