I want to see the 80s movie version of this.

Possible titles:

"Generation Xi"

"Meant To Xi"

"Ten Times Xi"

I would watch the FUCK out of a feel-good Xi origin story. I need a safe space to hate America for like 120-160 minutes.

if there's a sequel or threequel, even better. This would be my fast and furious franchise. My roman empire.

Ever since I read about a young Xi trying to build a biogas reactor in a rural community, and it blew up from the pressure build up covering him in shit, I've been thinking this would make an awesome light-hearted film about socialism with Chinese characteristics.

What, kinda like Forrest Gump with the American dream? (But 100x better and complex, of course)

Generation Xi goes hardest

Someone here might know this, but I'm wondering what the criteria he wasn't admitted on was or was it more so because his dad was deemed counter revolutionary and they just wanted to put him through the wringer to see if he was actually serious about it.
