00:00-00:23
I: If you are gonna tell other people what you gals did in your right safeguarding, what would you say?
Interviewee: I don’t know. (Laugh) I haven’t calm down and really thought about it. Anyway, we did a thing. Now, I feel relieved. But, actually, we are still living in the lowest class. (Because) Our country’s institution works this way.

00:23-00:37
Interviewee: I came to Fujian at 19 year-old. I have come here for over 50 years.
I: Why did you come here?
Interviewee: We came to work in the logging camp, to support the construction of mountain area.

00:38-00:55
Interviewee of voice: Our polywood is to put a wood into a planer, and it roll and roll, just like peeling. A layer and a layer (is gone), and then the core will be dropped. After that, we started making polywood, by using switch blade to cut it into a certain size.

00:56-1:22 (crowded and noisy, the recognizable voices are…)
Qianqian (the name of the photographer, me), you go further to film, seeing if they dare to touch the senior.
Police: You should go to the Bureau of Letters and Calls.
Women: We went there before!

1:23-1:38
A woman’s voice: Let’s shout the slogan. We wanna meet the mayor.
Women: We wanna meet the mayor.

1:39-2:01
Interviewee’s voice over: You always give us a blurred identity confirmation. In 1999, the government and the state-owned enterprise/ the big factory gave our land to the real estate developer for free, you said we collective-owned enterprise belongs to the state-owned enterprise. Well, now, when we talk about the social welfare, you say we are “pure” collective-owned enterprise. So, we can take advantage of neither side. We suffered losses in both ways. So, we have to meet the mayor to give us a clear identity.

2:02-2:26
We rely on our rather low part-time/flexible job income to survive until now. We trusted the government and the party, and we had no complaint. But, today, all of the workers are shocked, frustrated, and break out. We found that the assets that we accumulated for many years have been sold at lower price in private by some people in 2010, around the time of privatization. And, we have no clue about the earning.

2:27-end
Leading woman: Everybody, don’t talk! Listen to me carefully. Here is very important. “Any governmental department, organizations, and individuals cannot change the collective-owned enterprise’s properties or harm collective-owned enterprise’s ownership of assets.” Have you heard this?
The crowd: Heard.
Leading: We have to know this. This is our right! Others cannot intervene. On what ground the government can sell our assets?
