Come on man, 1, 2, 3, Say "Qian".
Qian.
Let's take one too.
C'mon.
Get in the picture!
1, 2, 3, Qian!
Qian!
Jing Ruyi.
Where did you get all these patches?
From research stations.
So many stations! You're an expert.
What do you study?
Atmospheric physics.
Stuff in the air then.
Well, I'm here to study
Antarctic weddings.
This is my mascot. Tubby.
And soon,
I'll be inking a deal
at the forward station for broadcast rights,
while my company, Tian Zhang Di Jiu goes to market.
Hey, it's me, Wu Fuchun.
Call me Fortune.
Natasha.
-Nice to meet you. -Na Jie. Na Jie.
My project
needs to pass strict environmental testing.
A lot of wedding companies want to offer Antarctic weddings
but only my Tian Zhang Di Jiu can make it possible.
Oh, but you say "This is just an icy wasteland!"
"It's just 1,400 km squared of pure,"
"snow!"
"What's it good for?"
A vow!
Inside that vow is something holy.
You can even get two penguins as bridesmaids
and you won't have to spend money on an expensive dress.
You two are lucky.
These tickets were cheap right?
I bought out this plane,
and canceled the other tickets.
Look! Penguins.
Tubby, I found your family.
Ruyi, is this guy really starting a business selling weddings in Antarctica?
Any vegetation that they trample over
wouldn't grow back for centuries.
Watch, they'll go to Mars next.
He's one of those tuhao that I told you about.
Ah. Tuhao.
Flight 984, Flight 984. A cyclone is forming ahead of you.
It's a big one.
This is Flight 984. The weather radar also picked this up.
Permission to take a 30 mile detour around?
Granted. 984, Stay safe out there.
What are you doing?
I didn't do it on purpose.
Put your seatbelt on!
984, 984, the blizzard is too large. You need to turn back.
Repeat. Turn back.
Affirmative. We'll turn back now.
Attention, we need to make a steep climb.
What happened?
The blizzard is getting stronger. It's too fast.
What did he say?
984, 984 Please respond. Please respond.
We've lost track of you in the storm.
Report your position immediately.
Flight 984, Flight 984.
The fuselage has frozen over. I've lost control.
984 needs to make an emergency landing.
Are we going to be ok?
Help!
Help us!
Help me.
Pull your leg free.
C'mon!
Come back!
Save me.
Hurry!
Shoes.
What?
My shoes are stuck!
No service.
There's no signal.
The black box.
Doesn't every plane have a black box?
The sea should be 3 km deep here.
The black box's signal won't work that deep.
Someone will rescue us right?
What time is it?
10 pm.
Our planned route
didn't take us over the sea.
We must have been blown off course.
They won't know our exact position.
It's all useless.
What were you going to do with these again?
Research on the Aurora Australis.
The Aurora what?
We can't just leave her here.
She's already dead.
The bottom of the ocean is cold and dark.
Wait!
Listen.
The wind's stopped.
It's quiet here.
No wind is a good thing.
We need to hurry.
The weather's changing.
We need to stop!
We'll get lost if we keep walking.
What?
A snowstorm is coming.
There's no time.
We need to start digging.
Dig what?
A hole!
Here.
Hurry!
It's getting colder.
Dig faster!
I'm trying!
Excuse me.
We should draw an SOS in the snow.
Who's going to see it?
Does the mountaintop have signal?
It's worth a shot.
Are you always this stupid?
Where are we?
Antarctica.
There's no signal anywhere.
We can't just do nothing.
What do we do?
Just die in here?
We weren't supposed to fly today.
If you hadn't chartered the plane
no one would have died.
I didn't invite you on the plane.
What's so great about Antarctica?
Antarctica just kills you.
What's the point of this?
I worked for so long
to bring this to the market.
I didn't get a signal.
But I found a cabin.
Uninhabited.
Let's go.
We need to cross over the mountains.
It's already late night.
Why is the sun still up?
It's the midnight sun.
The day never ends.
This place is awful.
How far is it?
Just one more mountain.
I can't take it anymore.
I broke a bone.
I can feel it stabbing me inside.
I can't take it anymore.
Get up!
No.
What do we do now?
My tibia is broken.
We need to reset the bone.
Oh.
Bonesetting.
Of all the things.
You're joking right?
Dragging me here
might have given me necrosis.
My internal organs will start to fail
and I'll die.
That's bad.
I'll need to lie down for a long time.
I'll get bedsores that way.
We need to take off these pants.
Wait.
I can't take them off by myself.
Are you ready?
Hang in there.
Hey! Stay with me.
What do I do next?
What is it?
What?
What do you want?
I need to go to the bathroom.
No one will know.
Salmon,
beef,
soybeans,
a stack of Russian food.
Braised bamboo shoots,
mackerel.
This is Shanghainese.
Date?
1998, May 24.
Jing Ruyi.
Rice.
Specially for the Chinese Antarctic Expedition.
104 cans, one sack of rice, and half a bottle of alcohol.
From the dates of the cans,
it's possible that this has been abandoned for two years.
Look.
Look at this antique.
It's from '92.
It's from Australia.
Wu Fuchun.
I think the Chinese research station
is only 20 kilometers away.
What?
Here, look.
The Xuelong leaves from Freemantle, Australia
and goes through the westerlies
to get to the station.
These Australian cans, and that Chinese rice,
had to have been from a Chinese researcher.
A Russian station should also be closeby,
which explains the Russian tins.
A research station is just 20 km away.
There was an abandoned waystation.
This is that waystation.
We're saved.
I only know how far it is.
I don't know where it is.
It's a lot of land to cover.
A needle in a haystack.
That's it?
If you don't try how will you know?
There's 4 directions right?
I'll go search.
We have a 2kw generator.
It burns one liter of diesel per hour.
Even if we only use it for 8 hours daily,
the fuel will only last for 75 days.
After 75 days,
it'll turn into polar night.
We won't have heating,
and we'll freeze.
Then we'll find it in 75 days.
I won't accept anything else.
I'd rather die trying out there.
It's been 3 days since we crashed.
Judging from the sun at the position of the crash,
we crashed in the west.
So the sea is to the west.
You only need to search in 3 directions.
East, South, and North.
Good. I'll find that needle.
Just watch and see.
There's candy in the pockets of my jacket.
You should have these.
50 grams of that has around 300 calories.
It just might save your life.
Okay.
I won't be here. You'll need this.
Only use the generator when you're sleeping.
You always talk about how wonderful you are.
Who brings a fur coat and a tie to the South Pole?
It's not wonderful,
it's just a wonder.
Wait for my wedding business to open.
An entire crowd of grooms in ties will be milling around.
Which direction are you going in first?
East.
Where the sun rises.
The sun rises in the south during the polar day.
How can the sun rise from the south?
The sun never sets during the polar day,
It just circles the sky.
At noon, the sun is in the north, and is at it's highest.
And then, in the northwest,
and the southeast, it starts to get lower.
At midnight,
the sun moves south
and reaches it's lowest point.
It's morning now.
The sun is moving southeast.
I didn't understand a word of that.
I have this. Is that good?
The phone compass is useless down here.
Our latitude is too low.
The geomagnetis-
Stop talking about hard things.
and the polar geography is different.
And this place is weird. The sun rises in the south right?
I get it, okay?
I suggest following the sun south when you leave.
My fortune said that I'd find profit in the north.
So I should gamble on going north.
North.
I'm going!
Where's the sun?
With the amount of snow on the ground
you should be able to cover 4km in an hour.
Pay attention.
5 hours of walking is about 20 km.
If you don't find a station,
then I'll walk around for a bit right?
With clear skies,
you can probably see to around 10 km.
Use your eyes.
Don't wander aimlessly.
Save your strength.
I know.
Stop pretending.
You're walking 40 km every day.
It's around 10 hours.
You usually use your right
so your right leg is going to be stronger than your left.
You might go in circles
by leaning too much on your left.
You could also be influenced by the rotation of the South Pole.
You'll start walking to the left.
How could I do that?
My sense of direction is superb.
You have to learn how to look at your shadow.
Maintain your original direction,
and remember some landmarks,
so you can come back.
Like a specific mountain, or a glacier.
Pardon me ma'am,
do you know where the station is?
That way?
Ah sorry.
I'll stop bothering you.
You think you're so interesting?
You're staring. I don't get it.
You've been given everything.
The noise!
There was a bang and then everything fell down.
I had to pull my pants up
and run away from the avalanche.
Icebergs only exist at sea.
So the sea is to the north.
I told you that we should go north.
What do you think?
Tommorow I'll go east or south.
You should rest tommorow.
Can't.
I'm still good to go.
You can only carry enough supplies for two days out there.
But if you died,
I wouldn't survive.
You would.
If you don't come back in 2 days,
I'd have to solve it myself.
My fortune also told me,
I'd die in my old age, rich and surrounded by grandkids.
I'll go east tommorow.
You should just keep resting there.
Don't worry about me.
But don't just lie still,
you need to move your ass.
You're the one that broke my legs.
Moving them hurts.
It hurts? You need to move.
You can't get bedsores in this place.
So the sea is also to the east.
That means this place is a peninsula.
The station has to be to our south.
Tomorrow we can divide it,
southwest, south, and southeast.
We'll narrow it down from there.
That's good.
Here.
It's skua bone broth. Calcium rich.
JRY: Smells fishy WFC: Smells good.
I can still eat the canned food.
How can you say that?
Try it first.
Don't spit it out.
It's a waste.
I put in extra bones for you, look.
You should eat it. You know?
It's good calcium.
Calcium helps you grow strong.
Do you think that
seal and penguin meat taste
any better?
They're protected by the Antarctic Treaty.
The Antarctic Treaty?
I've broken a bunch of things in my lifetime.
Never thought I'd get the chance to break the Antarctic Treaty.
I can tell you
that our fuel isn't enough
to cook penguin or seal meat properly.
At best, we can eat fish.
Those poor fish.
They only grow a few millimeters a year
The big ones are already ancient.
Pity the fish?
Who's going to pity us?
Are you asleep?
No.
If you're awake talk to me about the Aurora Austriwhatsit.
You're interested?
Not at all.
But I'm too hungry to go to sleep.
100km above us in the atmosphere,
electrons from the solar wind
crash into atoms in the upper atmosphere.
The atoms then return to their ground state,
the light they release is the Aurora,
or the Southern Lights.
Two months from now, you can see them at night.
But when night comes we'll die. I know.
There's a legend that says
that the Aurora is a whale that made a big wave
that flew into the sky.
There's another legend,
that says that the Aurora is the soul of a dead girl.
Are you going to sell that map? We're going to die anyways.
Don't be crass.
Is money the only thing you like?
What's the most valuable thing in Antarctica?
Meteors.
Are they expensive?
Worth it's weight in gold.
You've got my attention.
Hey, do you know where we can find some?
Golddigger.
You're ancient, why did you fall for that?
I admit it,
I've committed a crime!
The elderly have it hard.
I know this now.
But seagulls, seals, and penguins are allowed to eat fish.
What do you have to say for yourself?
It's been two days.
If I die,
then what will happen to her?
Fuchun!
Fuchun.
Infinitely compassionate and merciful Guanyin rescue us.
Ruyi.
I came back.
I couldn't fix it.
Antarctic fish soup.
Have some.
I fell into the ice.
Ruyi.
Let's live. Okay?
I'm going.
If you really can't wait for me,
or if I never come back,
I wish you'd at least use up the oil
and eat all the food before you died.
Ruyi.
I'm afraid that the wind will stop,
and the world will grow silent.
I'm afriad that the wind will rise,
and blow away
all of our footsetps.
And you?
What are you afraid of?
Ruyi!
Fuchun!
Ruyi!
Fuchun!
Fuchun.
Fuchun. I'm over here.
Fuchun.
Ruyi.
I can't see.
Snow reflects about 95% of the sun's light.
You were outside every day.
It's similar to staring at the sun.
When will I get better?
In two or three days.
Guess it's your turn to take care of me.
Fuchun.
Let's live.
Stop.
Go left.
Go right.
Don't kick it.
Here.
A little slower.
Why are you standing there?
You don't need help?
No. Go away.
I'm completely blind.
Just go.
Go straight.
Left.
Did you know?
Ten thousand years ago,
This would have been a river, surrounded by trees.
2.5 million years ago,
the land was young and covered in forests.
You can see?
I still can't see clearly.
The snow isn't that bad.
How do you say that?
How large is your chest? What bra size are you?
We're running out of food.
I'll go outside and go fishing.
Then you should go in this direction.
Around this area.
Got it?
I'll wait for you.
I'm going!
Ruyi,
come back with me.
You'll say yes, right?
I know I'm a bit sexist.
But I always want to say this,
everytime I come back alive.
I'll admit it.
You're not bad looking.
You have big eyes, an oval face,
and you're smart,
even though you're humorless.
When we get back,
I'll take you to the movies
and we'll go have a candlelit dinner.
We'll eat as much as we want.
Watch. We'll never have to starve again.
Fuchun.
You're back.
Fuchun!
Fuchun.
Natasha.
Ruyi's shoes.
I can't wear them.
Who is it?
No one.
Was it the wind?
Must have been the wind.
You should go check again.
I swear that no one was there.
Go give her back her shoes.
I left her some dollars.
What are you doing?
Catching dinner.
You already found the pot.
Why don't we boil it?
If you boil him, I'll braise and cook you.
There's no soy sauce.
Wu Fuchun.
Don't you dare.
It looks so cute.
It looks so delicious.
We can't keep it.
He can have some of my food.
You're not eating enough as it is.
Fuchun.
We should name it.
How about, Spot?
I want to call him Tubby.
He looks exactly like my old mascot.
Alright. We'll call him Tubby.
Tubby!
Fuchun,
you're a good person.
Being a good person is useless.
Good boy.
Good boys get treats.
I'll race you.
C'mon!
Let's go!
Tubby!
How are you?
I'm fine! And you?
You should eat too.
I don't eat expired food.
What's the most valuable thing in Antarctica?
Meteors.
Are they expensive?
Worth their weight in gold.
You've got my attention.
Where can we find some?
It comes after the glaciers start to move,
and the glaciers blocking the mountain melt away,
then you can find the meteors inside.
-Ruyi! We're rich!
It looks real.
It is!
Look!
It looks like it's Martian.
Martian?
But it's different from the ones I've seen before.
Meteors are all the same.
Is it from Mercury?
Has to be.
It's valuable.
It is?
Of course it is. Mercury is very valuable, lemme tell you.
It'll be a family heirloom, you know.
Where's north?
The north and south have money.
X marks the spot.
Treasure.
Ruyi.
But this rock really does look strange.
Nonsense.
How is it weird?
Look at it carefully, is it from Mercury?
Shit!
It's literally shit!
What is that?
Meteor, my ass.
I bit that thing.
I've seen seal, penguin and seagull feces before.
This has to be a persons.
Whose?
Why didn't you tell me about it?
It's scurvy.
It's due to a lack of Vitamin C.
How do we cure it?
By eating vegetables.
What will happen to you?
Afterwards,
My teeth will fall out one by one.
And the nails will too.
Fuchun.
Do you know Zhuangzi?
There was one day
where Dong Guozi asked Zhuangzi
"Where is the Dao that you speak of?"
Zhuangzi said
"The Dao is in the piss and shit of the world."
Fuchun.
You've given me hope twice now.
Once when shit started.
The other, when shit came back.
Fuchun,
You're already close to finding the station.
What did Zhuangzi's disciple say?
We tried to save each other
but we forgot about the world.
What do you mean?
We're like two fish stranded above water,
trying to breathe life back into the other.
Instead of
trying to return to the water.
You should forget about me.
and go find happiness alone.
No matter what happens,
for better or for worse,
for richer,
for poorer,
in sickness and in health,
whether you lose your teeth,
or you stay a cripple,
or you forget to shower,
whether you smell good or smell bad,
I'll still love you,
until death
do us part.
Jing Ruyi.
Will you, here at the end of the world,
accept Wu Fuchun
as your lawfully wedded husband?
Even though he used to
treat nature as just another business,
even though he hasn't read any books,
and he can't understand most of your explanations.
Even though,
before he met you
all he cared about was himself and money.
Zhuangzi's disciple countered and said,
Let's forget about the world,
and save each other.
Wu Fuchun.
Thank you.
But I can't.
I want you to go on living.
This is a survival guide that I made for you.
Idiot.
Did I need this when I fell into the ice?
I don't care.
You'll want to look at it.
I like whales.
I like listening to them sing,
and watching them swim with their fins.
We should live our lives fully like they do.
A roaring noise,
soaring through the sea.
The night will come soon.
Don't give up.
If you can see the Aurora,
it means the weather will be clear.
You shouldn't waste any time. Continue searching.
The sea ice will get thicker.
You should start saving up fish,
and keep our clothes dry.
Our fuel ran out,
but we can still burn the furniture if we need to.
When the wood runs out,
you should take the sled,
and put all the supplies that you can on it
and head south to find the station.
Don't come back.
You said,
that you'd rather die on the road.
Ruyi told me
that I should live a full life.
I once thought that I was living a full life.
I've searched in every direction.
If she dies, what will happen to me?
I remember the last time you dug a pit so we could survive.
I'm tired.
I can't move anymore.
I can't give you anything,
or predict the future.
I can't tell you that you'll be rich and successful,
with lots of grandchildren.
I don't want you to stay with me.
I like it here.
But you shouldn't be here with me.
This is my final resting place,
but it's not yours.
I wrote you a poem.
When I pass away,
I want you to live.
I'll wait for you.
I hope that you'll continue to hear the wind,
and that you'll still enjoy the smell of the ocean that we both love.
Is anyone there?
No, don't!
Get back!
Let me go!
Let me go home!
Ruyi!
I like it here.
But you shouldn't be here with me.
This is my final resting place,
but it's not yours.
When I pass away,
I want you to live.
I'll wait for you.
I'm back.
I hope that you'll continue to hear the wind,
and that you'll still enjoy the smell of the ocean that we both love,
and walk down the same beaches we walked down,
I hope my love
will live on.
I loved you.
I sang you a song about everything.
So,
you should go forward,
and live a life in full bloom.
Even the longest of nights will end,
and the sun will rise again.
And when it does,
warmth and light will return to us.
May lovers
never again forget the world.
