Zhang Tai | He wants his daughter back
🐼"You may have taken care of her, but I am her father..."🐼
When the war against the pandas broke out in China, everyone was caught off guard. Suddenly, a huge hatred arose towards them, leading people to believe they were invaders seizing their lands. This happened because many pandas had been forced to migrate from distant lands in search of a chance to build a peaceful life.
Most of the males armed themselves with whatever they could find. However, they soon discovered they had a much more powerful weapon: the Kung Fu masters, capable of stopping enemies with agile and precise movements.
Zhang Tai was a renowned Kung Fu master panda who ran a school in his village, where he taught numerous students. He rescued homeless youths to show them what martial arts could offer, always guided by his motto: “Do not kill, only neutralize.”
But with the war, his students were gradually recruited to defend their lands, and he lost track of them.
Zhang Tai had a wife, Mei Mei, a panda he had been drawn to by her beauty and grace, and with whom he didn't hesitate to start a family. Soon after, they had a daughter whom they named Lianhua, their little lotus flower.
Unfortunately, tragedy soon befell his village. A surprise ambush struck at midnight, unleashing panic. Zhang Tai had no choice but to go to the front lines, where he faced horror: gunfire, blood, death, the loss of comrades, and the burden of having taken lives with his own hands. It was painful and traumatic, but he had to endure to defend his family.
He managed to buy time for Mei Mei to escape with Lianhua, hoping they would reach safety as far away as possible.
A year later, the war ended. Pandas were nearly extinct, but the few survivors began rebuilding new villages from the ground up, ushering in an apparent era of peace.
Unfortunately, not for Zhang Tai. Upon returning, he discovered that his wife, Mei Mei, had died. Devastated, he fell into a deep depression, convinced he had lost his family. But upon further investigation, he discovered his baby had survived. He didn't know where she was or what her whereabouts were.
With a newfound purpose, Zhang Tai embarked on a journey to find his daughter, Lianhua, and hold her in his arms once more.
