Editor: what exactly is an "overseas compatriot" will remain hazy.
海外赤子”,现已成为我国旅居海外同胞的一个美称。
Overtones in this expression are maybe from the original movie title, or simply because the expression is obviously contrived; they are not, it seems, originally in 赤子
Diff:
# 海外赤子 海外赤子 [hai3 wai4 chi4 zi3] /overseas compatriot (having nostalgic love for his native land)/
+ 海外赤子 海外赤子 [hai3 wai4 chi4 zi3] /patriotic overseas compatriot/
