When I was young, my father used to grow carnations — a kind of flower that was red, pink and white. He took care of them with much love and devotion (挚爱). When he came home from work every day, he would enjoy watching them. And he used to tell us, "No one should touch my flowers. "

One day, my younger sister Clemence, who loved Dad very much, wanted to help him. So she cut the carnations from their stems (枝干) one by one and arranged them on the ground. She believed that Dad would be very pleased to see them that way. When Mom and I realized what my sister had done, we became completely speechless. However, my sister didn't know why no one showed her any appreciation (欣赏). When Dad came back, he went straight to watch the flowers as usual. Seeing his flowers lying on the ground like dead animals, he was surprised at first. He looked towards the street to see if it was any of the neighbor's children who could have done it. Then he looked at Mom in silence. Finally Mom, who always taught us to tell the truth, said, "No bad neighbors did this great job, only your lovely daughter Clemence. " Dad's face changed into a smile and then he said, "Do I have better flowers than my lovely daughter?" My younger sister smiled and hugged Dad strongly.

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer brought his first 3D movie G-Force to the big screen. It is a funny adventure about a team of trained secret agents (特工) - guinea pigs (豚鼠). These guinea pigs work for the US government, and they have special powers. They can talk and work together to fight against the bad people who will destroy their great nation. The team tries to stop Leonard Saber, a man who plans to destroy the world. Before they succeed, the government asks them to stop and wants to catch them. To get away, they hide in a pet shop. But they are caught there. Darwin (voice of Sam Rockwell), Juarez (voice of Penėlope Cruz), Blaster (voice of Tracy Morgan), Speckles (voice of Nicolas Cage), Mooch, and their new friend Hurley (voice of Jon Favreau) need to get out of their cages and save the world.

"It's interesting to take on films with familiar, even classic themes, give them something fresh and see what happens," says Bruckheimer. "Movies about secret agents have been on screens long before James Bond, and movies in which animals speak and have personalities have also been with us for quite some time. What we've never seen, however, is a movie about secret agents who happen to be animals and, what's more, is a movie that is a combination of action, cartoon and digital 3D. "
