上世纪80年代 中国开始实施计划生育政策
In the 1980s, China began to implement one-child policy.
如今 第一批独生子女的父母逐渐退休
Now the first generation of the urban one-child’s parents have been retiring.
随着依靠仅有的一个孩子来养老越来越难
As relying on the only child becomes impossible,
计划生育这一代父母的养老问题亟待解决
it’s urgent to discover a new way to take care of the old.
这里是位于贵州省北部的遵义
This is Zunyi, located in the north of Guizhou Province.
一个因红军长征历史而闻名的城市
It’s a city famous for its history in China—old revolutionary base of Red Army.
在这里我们将记录下来自遵义的两个县城——绥阳和正安的四位退休人员的生活
This video will focus on four retirees from two counties of Zunyi—Suiyang and Zheng’ an,
看看当代独生子女父母所面临的养老问题

中华神龙冲云霄

喜迎建国七十年
Happy to see the 70th anniversary since the founding of new China.
人间奇迹多创造
Miracles abound.
我和我的祖国 一刻也不能分割
My country and I cannot be separated for a moment.
无论我走到哪里 都流出一首赞歌
No matter where I go, a song of praise comes out.
请欣赏由绥阳金银花艺术团带来的舞蹈
Please enjoy the dance performed by Honeysuckle Art Troupe of Suiyang.
《我和我的祖国》
My Motherland and I.
原来我的宗旨是 我们就是成立舞蹈队
The original purpose is just to organize a dance team.
反正哪里表演哪里比赛我们不参加
We wouldn’t join any performance nor competition.
我们就是锻炼身体为主
We just exercise.
实际上 虽然这个想法也是正确的
In fact, though this idea is correct…
但你既然每天都在学舞 练舞 还在编排之类的
Now that we're learning to dance and choreographing every day,
却没有平台展示
but don’t have a platform to show,
队员就觉得光是跳 跳有什么用呢
the team members thought it was useless to dance.
又没有演出 又没有比赛
No shows. No games.
还有你通过平台展示自己 肯定心情很愉悦
If you show yourself through a platform, you must be in a good mood.
舞台上的是金银花艺术团
The dance group is called Honeysuckle Art Club.
队伍中间的是领舞 也是这个团队的领导者
In the middle of the stage is the lead dancer, who is also the leader of the team.
她叫汪祝娟
Her name is Wang Zhujuan,
贵州省绥阳县政协的一名退休人员
a retiree from the Political Consultative Conference of Suiyang County, Guizhou Province.
我们的生活基本上无忧
Our lives are basically trouble-free
硬要说烦恼 也没什么烦恼
No worries, anyway.
有时候有点烦恼就是 现在 比如说
Occasionally… For example:
我们要带孙子 要做家务 要跳舞
We need to take care of our grandchildren, doing housework and dancing.
我的声音一直没有恢复 因为毕竟要说这么多话
My throat hasn’t healed because I have so much to talk.
原来我们家儿子 丈夫 儿媳都很支持
My son, husband and daughter-in-law used to be very supportive.
但现在 一个是太忙了
But now, I am too busy.
再加上有了小孙孙 一岁多了
Plus there is my one-year-old grandson…
原来没有小孙孙的时候肯定支持
They used to be supportive before the birth of the grandson
但是现在又要做家务 又要带小孙孙 又要跳舞
But now, I do housework, take care of the baby, and dance.
所以家务 舞蹈 或者业余爱好有些冲突
So housework, dancing, or other hobbies are a conflict.
一有冲突 他们就不太支持
They (my family) are less supportive when there is a conflict.
之前他们还是很支持
They were very supportive.
但是在这种情况下 孙子没人带
But in this situation, no one else can take care of the baby,
我又要去演出或者编排
while I have to perform or choreograph.
他们就很不高兴
They are not happy.
有些时候为这些事情有矛盾
Sometimes we come into conflict.
偶尔也会拌嘴
Sometimes we bicker.
一个年近六十的退休人士在本可以规划自己的'天伦之乐'之时
A retiree who was nearly sixty years old has to take on a nanny job,
还要承担一份被家人视作义务一样的保姆工作
which is regarded as an obligation by her family, when she could have planned his "joyfulness".
而自己的养老问题却被忽视
Bur her own problem of elderly care is ignored.
这是计划生育时代逐渐显现的问题
This is what gradually emerged in the family planning era.
（你们在这干啥子）
(What are you doing here?)
接媳妇噻
To welcome a bride!
他们请你们来的？
You are invited to do so?
嗯嗯
Yes.
他们为什么请你们
Why they invited you?
接媳妇的都要请我们打鼓
Most people do so.
不仅是家庭内部分工矛盾
Not only the contradictions between cooperation within the family,
当今老年群体的文化生活也有诸多值得讨论的地方
there is a lot to be discussed in the cultural life of the elderly.
对文化想象的缺乏就是他们面临的一大问题
Lack of cultural imagination is a major problem they face.
我们以前是绥阳县粮食局的一个下属单位（上班） 属于面粉厂
I used to work in a subordinate unit of Suiyang Grain Bureau, which is the flour factory.
这位叫唐关会的女士是县城的面粉工厂的下岗工人
The lady named Tang Guanhui is a laid-off worker in a flour factory of Suiyang County.
上世纪九十年代
In the 1990s,
国有企业进行一系列改革或企业重组引发了下岗潮
a series of reforms or reorganizations of state-owned enterprises caused a wave of laid-offs.
县城里的粮食部门就是改革企业中的一例
The grain sector in the county is an example of reforming enterprises.
唐女士在拿到一份买断工龄的钱后就开始了漫长的只有吃饭睡觉娱乐的生活
Ms. Tang started a long life with eating, sleeping, and entertaining after receiving some buy-out money.
我们是97年改制 97年改制之后下岗了
I got laid when there was a reform in 1997.
像我们这种工龄不长 一万七千一百块钱就买断了
Workers with few years’ seniority like me get a buyout for 17,100 yuan.
买断了就 基本上一天就是没事 就是耍
Buyout…basically is nothing to do every day, just having fun.
休后她加入了一个鼓队
After retiring, she joined a drum team,
为县城里的婚礼举办 商场开业 政府庆祝等活动表演
performing for weddings, opening of shopping malls, and government celebrations in the county.
队员大多是各个单位的退休人员
Most of the team members are retirees from various state-owned units.
但即使在这样一个中老年人休闲娱乐的领域
But even in such a field of leisure and entertainment for middle-aged or elderly people,
依然有暗暗的‘商业较量’
there still exists ‘commercial battle’:
挖人 规模比拼等现象依然会出现在各个中老年鼓队之间
phenomena like poaching and scale competition can be seen between the drum teams.
这个队成立的时候 就是我们组建的
The founding of the team…It was formed by us.
我们大部分是退休职工 （来自）各个单位
Most of us are retirees, from different state-owned units.
我退休之后就在简大姐的鼓队
I joined Jian’s Drum Team after retirement.
在那里一年多之后就到这里 差不多四五年了
And came here one year later. It’s around 5 years since I came here.
上班的时候基本上没时间 就礼拜天 周末
Basically no spare time when working. Only weekends can we meet.
业余时间就参与大家的活动
We join activities once there is free time.
作为我们绥阳这一块 文化生活
As for Suiyang, cultural life should be enriched.
各个方面 都要进一步地把它丰富起来
in all aspects.
尽管目前的物质文化都上了很大一个台阶
Although the current material life has been improved a lot,
但是还得要方方面面更进一步体现不是更好
it would be better if everything was improved.
哇 你这
Oh, you…
哪里 我这里多了 倒给“王省长”

基本上我们天天都是这样

没有什么改变
No changes.
这场演出是受县政府邀请举办的
The performance was organized by the government
为新中国成立七十周年献礼

唐和汪的舞队共同在此表演
Tang and Wang's dance team perform together here.
-我和她是同学噻 -我们小学初中都是同学
-We are classmates. -From primary school to junior high school.
政府是请我们队来表演
The government invited our team to perform.
但是我们队 今天你看到的 都出现了冷场
But, as you see, there was a lull today.
我们队要完成一台晚会还是有点难
It's difficult for our team to finish an evening alone.
-所以说我们就想到了我们的 姊妹队 -姊妹队

反正平时都经常在一起合作 合作得非常之友好

帮我们跳几个舞
Help us with some dancing programs.
虽然来自不同的单位
Though one is the government's retired leader and the other is a laid-off worker
唐和汪却是多年的好朋友

作为有政府退休背景的人员
As a team with many retirees of the government,
汪的舞队备受官方青睐

为中国喝彩
Cheer for China.
为我们中国茅台王子酒喝彩 谢谢
Cheer for our Maotai Prince Wine. Thank you.
哎我忽然发现你们的声音都不够整齐
I suddenly found that your voices are not even.
我们是中国人 永远都不会忘记新中国成立在1949年
We are Chinese. We will never forget that new China was founded in 1949.
我们胜利了 我们拥有着美好的明天
We win and we have a good future.
此刻 所有的中国人 我喊321
Now, all the Chinese, when I count to three…
台上是各市州代表团队
On the stage there stand representatives of teams from various cities and states.
这天共有16个城市的队伍参加比赛
A total of 16 teams participates in the game.
轮到金银花艺术团上台的时候 天已经完全黑了
When it is the turn of the Honeysuckle Art Club, it’s already dark.
完成表演后 他们拿到了三等奖和赞助商赠送的奖品
After completing the performance, they won third place and prizes from the sponsor.
而对于这个成绩 他们似乎不是很满意
However, for this result, they don't seem to be very satisfied.
肯定精力投得最多
Have put a lot energy.
钱嘛 好多服装都是我们自己
And money. A lot of clothes are bought buy our…
-专门为这个活动买的吗 -对对对
-Especially for this event? -Exactly.
因为比赛 你看到的
As you see,
人家的服装比我们还要艳丽点
Others’ clothes are brighter than ours
但我们因为钱
But owing to our appropriation…
组织者 体育中心 县里面财政收入本来就比较紧张
The financial revenue of the county is already tight.
所以固定就只有五千块钱
So we got 5000 yuan only.
我们要买两套服装有点贵 就买的一般的
Too expensive to buy two set per member. So we just bought cheap ones.
和人家雍容华贵的比 我们这个就
Compared to their elegant ones, ours…
人家都说 一个舞有多贵
People often say, how expensive a dance can be.
我们的精力 我们的编排
Our energy, our choreography.
付出的还是很多
We put a lot here.
商业化的社会建立了对女性‘美’的欣赏
The commercialized society builds appreciation of “beauty” of women,
促使她们对美的追求

中国电子商务巨头阿里巴巴2018年发布的一份报告显示
According to a report released by the largest Chinese e-commerce platform Alibaba in 2018,
中国老年群体的网上消费正在以越来越快的速度增长
online consumption among elderly shoppers in China is growing at an increasingly fast pace.

此时已是晚上十点
It is ten o'clock in the evening.
然而坐车回家还需要一两个小时
But it will take them an hour or two more to get home by car.
他们仍然精力充沛 接下来还要为第二天的训练做准备
They are still full of energy and prepared for the training in the next day,
还要为下一次演出做准备
rehearsing for next performance.
老年人退出劳动力市场上以后 跟原来的一些同事关系可能会造成一定的断裂
It might cause a fracture between the retirees and their previous colleagues and working places
跟原来的工作场所可能会造成一定的疏离
after quitting the labor market
比如说 社会身份的认同 这里讲的是一个角色的转换
For example, social identity, it’s a change of the character.
他以前是工作场所里面 可能是个能人 他可能会是一个有用的人
The retiree might be a useful person when working.
但是他退出劳动力市场上以后 就是退休以后
But when they quit the labor market, or when they are retired,
他肯定面临一个适应期
they must face a period of adaption.
从社会身份的角度来看的话
From the perspective of social identity,
他从一个在职者变成一个不在职者 也就是说退出劳动力市场上的人
It will be changed to a jobless from a worker.
因为在职意味着是生产者
Worker means producer.
退休意味着什么呢 意味着消费者
Retirement means consumers.
对于身份的转变来说 大部分人会从一个生产者的角色转变成一个消费者的角色
Regarding identity switch, most people will become consumers from producers.
从一个忙的人 变成一个闲的人 我们通常是这样来看的
From a busy person to a lounger, that’s how we think about this situation.
对他（退休人员）来说 能不能完成这个身份转换是非常重要的
For retirees, whether they can finish the identity change or not is very important.
你后面提到的广场舞 对他们的身份转变 可能会有帮助
The square dancing you just mentioned might be helpful.
因为他是一种集体活动 又把他们融入到了另外一个群体中
Because it’s a collective activity to integrate them into another community.
每一个人都需要的
Everyone needs that.
其实我们需要自己对自己的身份认同 也需要在另外一个群体获得别人的认可
We need our own identity, as well other’s recognition.
从马斯洛需求层次来看这个是人的需要
In view of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, that’s the human need.
我们需要交友 需要别人的尊重
We need to make friends, need others’ respect.
这个是一个基本的需求
That’s a vital need.
这是绥阳县人民检查院的一位退休法警 名叫梁平
This is Liang Ping, a retired bailiff from Procuratorate of Suiyang County.
他也是金银花艺术团的一员
He is also a member of the Honeysuckle Art Club.
在其他地方唱 别人会烦 影响他们
People would get angry if I sing in other places for bothering them.
你在这个地方唱外面听不到响声
But you can’t hear anything outside of this place.
这个地方你一动脑筋 想办法 就找到这里来了
This is the place where you'll find it once you think about it.
我是从检察院退休的 绥阳县人民检察院
I am retired from procuratorate. People's Procuratorate of Suiyang County.
我退得早 现在我的工资还差点才6000块钱
I retire in advance. Now my salary is nearly 6000 yuan monthly.
如果到点退 就有7000块钱
If I retired in time, I would get 7000.
我老伴的工资比我高些 她是到点退的
My wife's salary is higher than mine since she retired in time.
和汪一样 这位退休老人并没有将养老问题寄托在孩子身上
Same as Wang, the retired man doesn’t place the hope of elderly care on his son and daughter-in-law.
反而还要帮孩子解决一部分生活问题
Instead, he helps them solve some of their life problems.
实际上我们俩的收入就有一万多了
In fact, we have an income of more than 10,000 yuan monthly.
吃的话（一个月）几百块就够了
Only hundreds yuan will be enough for meals per month.
多余的部分
The rest of our salary…
小孩买房子的贷款我们就拿一部分给他们还
We pay part of the kids’ mortgage for them.
固定要给他们还几千块钱 三千块钱
3000 yuan per month.
（每个月固定给小孩三千块钱？）
(You give the kids 3000 yuan per month?)
嗯
Yes.
现在身体还好
I feel well.
吃药吃得也不多
Don’t take much medicine.
我就是爱买点穿的
Just like buying clothes.
她也爱买点穿的
My wife like doing so.
我们两个都爱穿
We both love it.
我老伴看起比我年轻点
My wife looks younger than me.
那些人都说她年轻
People often say she’s young.
虽然唱着红歌 歌颂着祖国
Although singing patriotic songs, praising the country,
梁平却有过一段非常艰苦的上山下乡的经历
Liang had a painful experience of being ‘sent down’ at the request of the party.
知青 那个生活是比较艰苦的
Educated youth. That was a very hard time.
自己煮饭
Cooked by ourselves.
上山下乡
Went into mountains and countryside
做农活那一套
to do farm work.
犁田 打耙
To plough.
反正早出晚归 积公分那时候是
Went out early and came back at dusk
一两毛钱一天的公分
Got 0.1 or 0.2 yuan paid per day
确实还是很艰苦
Really hard.
晚上一个人
In the evening, alone,
煤油灯 凄惨的煤油灯
With kerosene lamp, miserable kerosene lamp
惨然微笑
Smile sadly.
你现在住的这个房子是你自己的吗
Is the house you’re living yours?
是我自己的
Mine.
知识青年（知青）是指从1950年到文化大革命结束期间
Educated youth refers to young people who have been sent down from the cities to the countryside
从城市去农村支援建设的年轻人
from 1950 to the end of the Cultural Revolution.
他们中大多数实际上只接受过初中或高中教育
Most of those “educated youth” actually only received junior or senior high school education.
在那个年代 毛泽东在中国公众中拥有巨大的权威
At that time, Mao possessed enormous moral authority with the Chinese public.
人们认为他的行为都是为了中国的利益 为了革命 为了社会主义好
People believed that his acts were motivated for the good of China, the revolution, and socialism.
对毛的崇拜就是从这种自发的尊重中发展起来的
The Mao cult grew from this spontaneous respect.
“忠字舞”就是当时人们向党和伟大领袖致敬的形式之一
“Loyalty Dance" was one of the forms to salute to the government and the great leader,
表现了一个人的政治立场
acting out one's political position.
现在 像‘金银花艺术团‘成员一样的人们仍然用广场舞的形式
And now, people like those who are in Honeysuckle Art Club still use this sort of performance
来‘表达他们的爱和对党的敬意‘
to “express their love and pay their tribute to the party.”
这位退休阿姨也是毛泽东的崇拜者
The followed retiree is also an admirer of Mao.
她是一位手工艺人 爱好花鸟刺绣 纸艺 和毛泽东诗词
She is a craftsman, loves embroidery, paper art, and Mao’s poems.
她每天都坚持练习模仿毛泽东书法
Practicing imitating Mao's calligraphy every day,
并且将绣完一整套毛泽东诗词视为自己的终身目标。
she regards completing embroidery of all Mao's poems as her lifelong goal.
我绣他的每一幅字的话必须要了解当时的历史背景 才绣得好
Before I embroider Mao’s poems, I must learn the historical background.
还要看他当时写的那种心情
And feel his emotion when he wrote those poems.
你现在是和哪个一起住
Who are you living with?
没有 我自己住
I’m along.
哦 儿子也在家里面 一起住
Well…with my son.
丈夫在县里面上班
My husband is working in Zheng’an County.
那你们目前是两地分居的状态
So you live in separate places?
对
Right.
你们多久见一次
How often do you get together?
一个星期
Once a week.
你每天从早上到晚上都做些什么
What do you usually do in your routine life?
早晨就出去锻炼 锻炼之后回家
In the morning, I go out to exercise. Then back home.
回家写一个小时的字 毛笔字
After that, I practice calligraphy for an hour.
绣一个小时的花
Then embroidering for an hour.
然后再画画
And drawing.
这些是必须要做的
That’s what I must do every day.
下午和中午就读书 看书
In the afternoon, reading books.
看啥子书
What kind of book?
《行者无疆》
‘Walking in Life.’
看一个小时左右的书 然后做饭
After reading books for an hour, I cook.
然后晚上就出去跟她们在‘京红旗袍‘那里去锻炼 锻炼形体
In the evening, I go to ‘Jing Hong Cheongsam’ to exercise, body shaping.
然后学走秀 就这些
Learning catwalk. That’s all.
基本上都是安排得满满的
I live life to the fullest.
周女士的旗袍是一个狂热的旗袍爱好者
Zhou is a big fan of cheongsam.
她在一次关于‘人性的剖析‘讲座上认识了她现在所在的旗袍协会会长
She met the president of "Jing Hong Cheongsam" at a session of "Analysis of human nature".
之后 她们经常一起参加一些形体训练课程
After that, they usually participate in some sessions for body shaping.
此外 她还是一个美容仪产品的推广者
In addition, she is also a salesperson for a beauty apparatus.
2012年的时候 我生了一场大病
I was seriously ill in 2012.
在12年到16年之间没有提过针
Didn’t embroider for a second from 2012 to 2016.
粘性肺炎
Got pneumonia then.
当时给我判断成肺癌
I was diagnosed with lung cancer.
在13年的7月份还有一次生命危险
And I was even declared to be in critical condition in July of 2013.
那个时候的我现在的我完全是两个人
It’s a totally different situation from now.
那个时候我看起来比一个六七十岁的老妈妈还老
I looked like an old woman, older than those who are 60s are 70s.
并且那种病的身体 那种肥胖 药物刺激
The medicine made fat.
身体各方面都是完全变了的
Every part of my body was different.
那你当时生病的时候是谁照顾你呢
Who looker after you when you were ill?
当时我儿子七月份的时候放假了
My son.
他就都在病床前陪伴我
It was July, and my son was on his holiday.
给我换尿不湿啊 因为做了手术动不了
He changed the diaper for me and clean my body.
还有擦拭身体
Because I couldn’t move after the physical operation.
我觉得现在的政策已经很好了
I think the current policy is good.
如果还有什么要改良的话就是将来的养老问题
The only thing to be improved is the issue of elderly care.
其他的问题都不是很严重
The other issues are not so serious.
像我们这种独生子女（家庭）
If the only child like mine
将来他也要求生活 他也要有自己的家庭
has to go out for work in the future,
他也要去顾及自己的妻儿
or has his own family,
他不可能有更多时间来管我们
he won’t have time to take care of us.
那我们如果老去了 我们的养老就失衡了
Then the elderly care is out of balance.
他拿什么来照顾我们呢
How can he take care of us?
除了这些目前看上去生活状态还不错的退休人员
Apart from those who seemly lives a happy or even so-so life,
另一个更严峻的社会问题也在逐渐显现
there exists cruel social issue that led by the family planning.
来自贵州师范大学法学院的讲
A lecturer from Law School of Guizhou Normal University
讲述了另一个在计划生育之后出现的群体
talks about another group appears after family planning.
失独这一个群体出现在我们的视线中大概是2012年的时候
Parents who have lost their only child is a group that we paid attention to in around 2012.
刚刚实行计划生育的话
When the family planning was just carried out,
如果他（父母）失去小孩 他还可以再生
if the parents lost their child, they could give birth to another one.
所以开始一段时间大家没有注意到这样一个问题
So people didn’t notice this issue at the beginning.
等到这些独生子女成年之后
But as the one-child generation grows up,
他们死亡了 但是父母又没有生育的能力
the parents could have lost their ability of fertility while the only child dies.
慢慢的 数量多了 才觉得这是一个社会问题
As the cases increases, we gradually notice this severe social issue.
