share time: 2026-01-21 02:32:04

Eighty-year-old Zhou Mingyuan, in the late stage of pancreatic cancer, insists on preserving the "Century-Old Pharmacy" (his father's legacy) in the old town. Thugs sent by a real estate developer taunt him: "You're dying but still being a miser!" Instead of shouting, Zhou tremblingly opens a yellowed "Medical Ethics Record"—with a 1952 "National Model Worker" certificate inside—and points to the plaque "Medical Ethics Is Family Ethics": "I gave free treatment to the poor back then; now I won't let you demolish the 'life-saving shop' for the people!" The thugs are instantly deflated. But what they don't know is that the developer has bribed the demolition office. Zhou will risk his last days to guard the "conscience lamp" that's been lit in the pharmacy for a hundred years.
