Summary: Part of Ning Ying s Beijing Trilogy, ON THE BEAT offers a humorous look at the daily grind of a Beijing police station through the perspective of two mismatched police partners.
Ying s Beijing Trilogy follows three generations of residents as they respond to the fast-paced lifestyle and rapid changes of China s capital city. I Love Beijing focuses on the heartbreak of young love, For Fun concerns the elderly and China s disappearing traditions and cultural values, and On the Beat offers a humorous look at the everyday lives of middle-aged adults.
