There is a movie about a woman from China who was sold to the United States and fell in love with an American.

It's not from Shu Qi. I saw it when I was a child, and I looked for it for a long time. It is Zhao Jialing's Ten Thousand Daughters in Qian Qian (also known as Footprints of Immigrants and Dream of Jinshan) (199 1).

The film is adapted from Lin's first biographical novel of the same name. There is a real person in history who tells the story of a China woman's hard struggle during the gold rush in the western United States in the18th century. "A Thousand Daughters" Polly Bemis (Polly

In order to make a living, Lalu's father was forced to sell her to bandits in exchange for two bags of seeds. Later, in the United States, Lalu was once again sold by traffickers to a China innkeeper in Warren, Idaho for $2,500. Finally, Charlie bemis, a white man, won her from the hotel owner by playing poker. After a well-educated Bemis became a famous New Englander, Polly was released. Soon, Bemis was shot dead by a miner. Bo used a razor to dig out the bullet and saved his life.
