Ms. Wah and Mr R's characters and backgrounds are completely different.
But her songs brought them together. They may not have known each other for long,
but they've both experienced setbacks in life.
So they can understand and support each other.
They have accompanied each other through life's difficult moments.
They agreed to be traveling companions.
Ah...
But before they hit the road,
Mr R suddenly found out he had a brain tumor
For him, Ms. Wah has moved up her concert.
But Mr R's brain tumor had worsened. He had to get the surgery sooner.
But Ms. Wah still went to Taiwan as scheduled.
What was more important than her good friend getting surgery?
I believe that if there's enough trust between two people,
they can overcome all obstacles.
On the other hand, when there's no longer any trust in a relationship,
can the couple still be together?
You told me to get the wedding gown from Tik-tik's home late at night
and deliver it to you at the hospital.
You just needed it as a prop.
You even arranged for the reporters to show up there.
The so-called most touching proposal of the century
was actually a script you had prepared beforehand.
You even prepared the props and got extras to put on such a lame show.
If you really care about Tik-tik, you mustn't tell her then.
You're right. You don't want Tik-tik to get a chip on her shoulder, right?
I don't want to become the chip on your shoulder either.
Hello...
Buddy.
I'm sorry. I was in a meeting just now.
It's OK. Are we keeping you from work?
No. You guys saved me. The meeting was so boring.
Not as fun as when we pretended to be AV actresses.
Right. That was really crazy.
Brother Buddy, were good friends. Have some tea first.
I can help myself. You're really so kind.
Actually you went to the trouble of pretending to be Sis Tik-tik's boyfriend.
As her younger brother, I should serve you tea.
Bong-bong.
What?
Bong-bong's right. Eat the tart.
Thank you.
You went to so much trouble last time.
Thank you. I hope you won't be mad at me for lying to you guys.
You call this lying to us?
We keep eating for free her. What's this then?
Look at Tik-tik. She's eating so much...
You want Buddy to buy us this meal again? Of course it's on me.
By the way, the cake is really yummy. Try it.
Come on.
Sis Tik-tik, this place is so nice. The food is good too.
We have Brother Buddy taking care of everything.
Why don't you and Sean have your wedding banquet here?
Bong-bong's right.
Why go all the way to Taiwan for your wedding?
Hong Kong is much better. His whole family's in Hong Kong too.
Now I can't decide whom to invite. It's such a headache.
Mom, even though Sis Tik-tik's in her late 20s,
she's still romantic like a teenage girl.
Are you still being so nosy? Mom, Sean and I met in Taiwan.
Isn't it more meaningful to have our wedding in Taiwan?
Besides, when I was still in a coma, he told me to stop sleeping.
He said he would wait for me at the end of the aisle in a chapel.
How can I marry outside a chapel?
That's true.
Lots of spinsters in Hong Kong like you are waiting in line to get married.
The chapels are fully booked.
It's your call. Just do whatever you like.
I don't care how you plan your wedding.
I just want my daughter to be happy.
Thank you, Mom.
By the way, you and Sean are good friends. What's his character?
Sean is...
Don't ask him. They're good friends. At first I thought they were gay.
Actually I don't have a good impression of Sean.
Mom, don't be biased.
Both Buddy and Sean lied to you before.
Why are you particularly harsh on Sean?
That's different.
I can tell that Buddy is honest. But Sean seems tricky.
But since you're his buddy, He must have some merits too.
Can I feel at ease letting my daughter marry him?
Listen, Buddy.
If you care about Tik-tik, you mustn't tell her.
We're getting married soon.
Do you want her to go through another failed wedding?
Or do you want her to have a chip on her shoulder
even if she manages to get married?
I believe everyone have shortcomings.
As long as there's enough love, no problem will be an obstacle.
Tik-tik, I know you'll be happy. I've done all that I can.
How could you be happy? You must be happy.
OK.
Happy...
Of course she's happy. Let's dig in.
Let's dig in...
Wow, there are so many!
No...I really can't see. I can't see. How come?
I can see...I can see...
Are you envious? Are you jealous? Send me a reply if you see them.
Why would I be envious?
I saw them last time. I just didn't photograph them.
So the big and bright fireflies Ming Ha mentioned
are actually fluorescent mushrooms.
Didn't you say you're knowledgeable?
Haven't you come across luminous fungi before?
You failed to tell the difference between fireflies and mushrooms.
Who says I don't know about that.
Fluorescent mushrooms are a kind of luminous fungi.
They're also known as green lights or jellyfish on land.
You just have the benefit of hindsight. Did you just google that?
I knew that long ago. But I was misled by Ming Ha.
Keep bragging about it and use your wife as an excuse.
Fong-ying calling.
It's good you're calling. I was about to tell you
how many species of fluorescent mushrooms there are.
Hello. Hello. Can you hear me? Hello.
Dad, you're awake?
Take a look at my phone. It's not working.
You can see me. That means your eyes are OK.
What are you talking about?
What do you mean?
I can't...I can't hear what you're saying.
What?
I can't hear you.
Hello.
You came in without making any sound. Do you know kung fu levitation?
You really can't hear?
That's a side effect of the surgery. I'm taking medicine for that.
I hope it'll get better next week. But I'm prepared for the worst.
Hey, it's good you're here. I'm looking at the photos you took.
I told you not to use my camera. Look. The film's been wasted.
They're either out of focus or underexposed.
Don't tell people that you're my student.
In the past, I kept talking and didn't let others talk.
Great. Now I can just talk to myself. It's no fun at all.
Hey, I took this one. Is it beautiful?
I can't hear. But I can see.
Is it beautiful?
You want me to compliment you, right?
Yes...Yes...
This one...All those are really so-so.
But this one is half as professional as mine.
It's not bad. Even a sow can climb a tree.
Based on this photo you took, I believe there'll be a miracle.
You said a sow can climb a tree. Who's a sow?
You...
You can't hear again?
I can't hear...
You're my fan...
I can't see. I can't hear.
You are...
All along, I lived by the seaside. Suddenly I can't hear the waves anymore.
I'm not used to this.
Is there really no improvement at all?
You seem more impatient than me.
People say you know God's will at 50. You hear with docile ears when you're 60.
If I really can't hear again, my life will be really quiet.
But then you won't hear me sing. You cant go to my concert.
I may not be your fan, but I've listened to your songs for years.
Why does it matter if I listen to you sing one less time?
You're not my fan?
You're putting words in my mouth again.
You're my longtime fan. You've been listening to my songs for years.
I may not be able to hear, but I can read your lips.
You're my longtime fan.
You can wrong a normal person, but now you're bullying someone who's deaf?
What's wrong with you?
You put words into my mouth. What's wrong with you?
Here.
Lyrics for Glamorous Transformation?
Yes.
Forced and superficial. Flowery.
They're just a bunch of flowery words strung together. What's Sean doing?
Is that what happens when you get famous?
Congrats, Sean. Your old books are selling fast.
They're all on on the best-seller list.
They're even sold out. We're doing a reprint.
Really? I remember you said before that
even 1,000 copies was too many to print.
It's OK we print more now.
"Behind The Glamor", which you wrote for Wah Fong-ying
is already so sensational before it's been published.
The bookstores want as many as we can supply.
I'm working on its first reprint already. The quantity will be doubled.
Also, the boss wants to organize an autographing session for you.
At the same time, there'll be a contract signing ceremony.
What contract?
It's our 10th anniversary.
The boss wants you to be our most recommended writer of the year.
We're going to publish five books for you this year. Isn't that amazing?
Really? Are you promoting me or your company as the publisher?
It's the same, right?
But I'm still considering
whether I'm going to ask you guys to be my publisher.
What? Come on.
I assured the boss that you would say yes.
Are you letting me down now?
Let me think about it.
Excuse me. I've got another call. Bye. Hello.
Hello, Sean, this is Wah Fong-ying.
What's the matter, Ms. Wah?
I'm still not happy with the lyrics for Glamorous Transformation.
I want you to revise them again.
Again? This is the third draft already. You thought it was OK before.
I've sung it several times. I still can't identify with it.
I find your lyrics too superficial.
Superficial? Sing it in adagio then. Would that be better?
Honestly, I have lots of other things to do.
If you keep asking me to revise them, I'm afraid I can't help you.
Sean, I know you're capable. That's why I'm making this request.
You said before that the concert means a lot to you too.
So why don't we make it perfect?
I did say that before.
But I really don't think there's any problem with the lyrics.
How can I revise them?
Then...Well, you're going to see Tik-tik get her award later, right?
Yes. I'm on the way to pick her up now.
I'll talk to you when I see you there.
OK.
Reporters for both the local news and entertainment news will be there.
It'll be quite the scene.
Why haven't you changed yet?
I don't feel so good. I took some medicine.
What?
I still have a headache.
I took a nap just now, but I overslept.
I didn't wake up until you knocked on the door.
You should tell me that you're sick. What else apart from a headache?
No. I'm just tired.
Maybe you need some rest to get better.
Right.
Look. It takes an hour to get from your home to the venue.
You change first.
Take a nap in the car. You'll feel better then.
You still want me to go? But I'm afraid I won't be able to hang in there.
It's not that I want you to go. Lots of people want you to go.
You're the star tonight.
They'll be so disappointed if you're not there.
You can go on my behalf.
You're the heroine. I'm not.
Besides, I'll worry about you if you stay home alone.
Let's go together.
At least I can look after you since we'll be together.
But do I look really pale?
No. Your complexion is so fair. You're really sexy.
That's sweet talk. OK. I'll change.
OK. Don't wear your shoes, OK?
I'll carry you downstairs. I don't want you to walk, OK?
That's a promise. I'll crush you with my weight.
Fine. Let's see. Come on. Hurry up.
Do you feel better now?
Much better.
Good. Do you remember the last time we went for a ride?
Last ride last fun. You even gave me a Marjorina bookmark.
Where's the bookmark? Do you still have it?
I'm not telling you...
If you haven't thrown it away yet, do it now.
Why?
Soon, I will have my own Song Sheung-hang bookmark.
Do you remember my car was repossessed the day after our ride?
Back then I promised myself that unless I wanted to get a new car,
otherwise no one can repossess my car again.
Back then I couldn't even afford a car of just several tens of thousands of dollars
Soon I'm going to buy a car that costs more than a million dollars
or even millions of dollars.
But I will drive this one for the time being since it's quite cozy, right?
When you're feeling better, we'll take a ride for fun again.
OK.
Tik-tik, how do you feel about getting this award? Can you tell us?
Right. Say something please.
I'm sorry. I don't feel well.
What?
Wait.
Tik-tik, are you OK? They've been waiting for so long.
Say something or they can't get their job done.
I can't. I really don't feel so good.
How about this? You take a seat here.
Let me talk to them, OK? Then we'll go to the ceremony together.
Sorry. Easy...Tik-tik's not feeling well, so I'll speak on her behalf.
Are you two going to Taiwan?
You know that already? Yes. We're having our wedding in Taiwan.
That's so far away. Will you invite us too?
Taiwan is far away? How about this? Talk to your editor.
If you guys want to come, I'll ask Mr Lai to sponsor your meals and accommodation, OK?
That's right.
Easy. Let me think. I'll answer your questions one by one.
Sis Fong.
Hello, Sis Fong.
Sis Fong.
Tik-tik, are you OK?
I'm fine.
Oh, no. You've got a fever.
The Secretary is here.
Right.
Mr Secretary.
Hello, Mr Secretary...
Hey, Tik-tik has a fever. Do you know that? Hurry and take her to the hospital.
She just took some medicine. She'll get better soon.
No, she was just in a coma. Having a fever could be serious.
She needs a doctor.
You drove here, right? Take her to the hospital now.
Yes, I did.
But the award ceremony is about to begin.
I'll take Tik-tik to hospital when the show is over.
You still want to go to the award ceremony?
But Tik-tik is the star today. How could she not show up?
She's so sick now.
I think you're the one who wants to be the star, not Tik-tik.
You won't take her to hospital, right? I'll do it then. Come on.
Thank you, Ms. Wah.
OK. Be careful.
Thank you, Ms. Wah.
Someone has to attend the ceremony. I'll stay behind.
Do whatever you like. Easy, OK?
Call me if there's anything.
Thank you...
It's Sean.
First of all, I need to apologize to everyone.
Tik-tik suddenly got a fever.
So she couldn't come and accept the award.
She really wanted to come in person to thank everyone for giving her the award.
But she just recovered. Having a fever could be serious.
So I hope you will all understand that. Thank you.
Actually Tik-tik is really weak. She's not strong at all.
When she sees a cockroach, she screams. It's true.
I'm so scared of cockroaches. I'm sorry. Let's get back to the subject.
I came today on behalf of Tik-tik.
She told me to say that
even an ordinary person with just a little bit of strength
can still achieve something big
as long as she has the courage and determination.
Tik-tik could do it. So can every one of you. Thank you.
His speech is quite appropriate.
It's quite impressive, like government propaganda.
He's your fiance. If you don't like my comment, I'll shut up.
Ms. Wah, I don't know why, but when I saw Sean on TV just now,
he felt like a complete stranger to me.
No. He was dramatic and superficial as usual.
He kept mentioning me just now.
But I felt like he was talking about someone else, not me
It was so surreal. It didn't seem real at all.
Maybe that's who he really is.
Szeto Tik-tik.
Dr Wu, how are you? Thank you for saving my life last time.
Don't mention it.
It's our duty to save lives. I was just doing my job. Are you sick?
Yes. I have a fever.
You're getting married soon. You must take care.
You know I'm getting married?
It's the talk of the town. How could I not know?
By the way, your boyfriend put in a lot of effort to marry you.
You think so too?
He knew you had come out of the coma already.
Maybe you weren't completely lucid yet. So you don't remember.
He had prepared the wedding gown beforehand.
As soon as you woke up, he immediately proposed to you.
My wife and my colleagues were so moved. Anyway, take care.
Don't think about it anymore. Get some good sleep once you're home.
You must get well first.
I've been in the entertainment industry for so many years.
I thought I could tell who's sincere. Even I didn't realize it was just a show.
Ms. Wah, what should I do now? What can I do?
I know I should comfort you. But I never comfort other people.
I don't know how and I won't do that.
You don't need to worry about hurting me. Just tell me what you think.
I'm sure you know and understand him better than I do. He hasn't changed at all.
He's been this person all along.
I really didn't expect that even our marriage is just a show.
Too bad that's the fact. We can't change it.
The only thing that can be changed is your choice.
Can you accept that your husband is such a person?
I don't know. He's usually very good to me.
I'm sorry, Tik-tik. I really can't help you.
I don't know. Neither do you. I don't know how deeply he loves you.
Can you put up with him?
I don't know how good he is to you. Can he make it up to you that way?
This is about your life-long happiness. You must decide yourself.
Sean calling.
Hello.
Are you better now? What did the doctor say? Are you OK?
I'm fine. I'm much better now.
I'll come over now. I'll buy you congee.
Do you want preserved eggs with lean pork congee
or boat congee with dried scallops?
I want to go to bed early. I'm so tired.
Get some rest then. Remember to get well soon.
We still need to fly to Taiwan to look at our wedding venue.
I really want to go to bed now. I don't want to talk.
Don't hang up. Put your phone next to you.
Why?
When I hear you snore, then I'll know you're asleep, right?
Szeto Tik-tik, go to sleep now. If you don't sleep, I will...
Hello, Miss Szeto and Mr Song.
These two cocktails were specially prepared for you.
They're called Wonder Lady.
Thank you. Oh, is there alcohol in it?
There's melon liqueur.
Give them to me then.
Can you give her a glass of warm water please? She just got better.
OK. No problem. You two are really so sweet.
May I have your autograph please?
OK. Here. Your autograph.
Oh, not Miss Szeto's. I want your autograph, Mr Song.
I'm a fan of your books.
No problem. Here you go. Thank you.
Thank you.
Can you please give her a blanket?
OK. No problem.
Thank you. There's air-con here. I don't want you to catch a cold again.
Why are you dressed like this? We're just taking a plane ride.
Why didn't you wear something more comfortable?
Little black dress has a special meaning to me.
I remember you were wearing it when we met for the first time in Taipei.
What is its special meaning?
It's my battle dress.
Every time I need to make a decision or lift my spirits, I'll wear it.
Marjorina once said that
not every woman has a chance to wear a wedding gown.
But every woman can own a little black dress.
Look. You're luckier than so many women.
You have a wedding gown as well as a little black dress.
In the future, you'll have a little red dress and a little blue dress too.
I'll work hard to write more books and make more money
to buy more dresses for you to be dressed in
Lancy.
You've checked your luggage already. Let's go now.
OK.
OK. We're ready.
If you two aren't hungry, we can have lunch when we get there.
It'll take slightly over an hour to travel from here to the chapel.
OK.
Lancy.
Melvin.
He's Lancy's fiance.
The guy who ran away at her wedding?
Yes.
Are you busy? Can I talk to you?
I'm working.
Lancy, we're not in a rush.
Take your time.
Give me ten minutes. We'll go in ten minutes.
Melvin, you don't need to say anything.
No matter what you say, I won't give up Chris.
Lancy, I already think of Chris as my own son. I hope I can look after him with you.
Because I can't give up on you.
Your family are so conservative. They won't accept this.
I've given up my family business.
I just want to tell you that I'm willing to give up anything for you.
Won't you regret it?
I've thought about this for a very long time
but gradually I couldn't imagine how I could live without you.
I really regret not telling you sooner.
I love you. I hope Chris, you and I can build a family and live together.
I've been waiting for you to say this all along.
It's such as blessing to have
someone who would give up everything to be with you.
I think the Taiwanese have read too many romantic novels.
Lancy told us already. Please feel free to look around.
Thank you.
This chapel goes well with our perfect wedding, right?
It's really so beautiful. When I was in a coma, I had a dream.
The place in my dream looked very much like this place.
The priest will ask me whether I will take Szeto Tik-tik as my wife
and promise to love you, care for you, protect you, in good days and bad days,
for rich or for poor, in sickness or health, till death do we part.
Before we marry, I want you to promise me something.
I'm yours already. What won't I promise you?
I want to tell the reporters the truth. I don't want to lie again.
I didn't do anything heroic.
I just wanted to catch Brother Tang cheating on his wife.
I went into the wrong room by mistake and only rescued those girls by chance.
I'm not Wonder Lady.
I understand. But I don't think you need to do that.
Even if it's a lie, it's a white lie.
Do you know you're already the fantasy for both children and grown-ups?
Do you want to shatter their dreams?
Sean, you can be honest with me.
Actually you don't care whether their dreams are shattered.
You're afraid that we'll no longer be the prince and princess.
What's wrong with worrying about that?
If we tell people the truth, we won't just become ordinary people again.
People will call us liars. Why take the risk?
Tik-tik, we worked so hard to get to this stage.
If we're careless now,
our fame will be as short-lived as your uncle's.
We'll lose everything.
Isn't it nice to be like my uncle?
He's got a family now. He lives a simple and mundane life.
I don't want to live that kind of life.
What if I insist on telling the truth? I'll give you an option.
Either tell people the truth or we won't get married.
Does it need to be so serious?
Ten seconds. Ten, nine...
Why do I have to choose?
Eight, seven...
Those are two separate issues. Do you understand, Tik-tik?
Six, five, four, three...
Can you not joke around with our marriage?
Two, one. I can't believe you would really refused to choose.
Those two issues aren't in conflict. It's best not to say anything.
The girl you want to marry is Wonder Lady Szeto Tik-tik, not me.
What's the matter, Tik-tik? We came here to look at the wedding venue.
Why did we we end up like this? Is it because of Laney?
Love isn't like that.
You don't need to give up everything to prove that you love someone.
I know everything.
Everything you said by my bed while I was in a coma wasn't true.
Who told you? Did Buddy tell you? He's just talking nonsense.
Buddy's talking nonsense? Was what the doctor said nonsense too?
I had a fever. I went to the hospital and ran into my doctor.
He said you knew that I had already come out of my coma.
Then I asked Buddy.
I can't believe you had prepared the script beforehand.
Your so-called proposal was just a public show.
It's true that I had written a script. But it wasn't a show.
Those lines were from the bottom of my heart.
You heard the Fashion Talk recording.
Back then you were still in a coma. I was really worried about you.
Then you woke up.
I just grabbed the opportunity to promote myself.
Once we were famous, we could be together.
You've supported me in this all along.
Grabbed the opportunity?
To give it some drama,
you worked out this gimmick of proposing to me?
You didn't really want to marry me.
It was a gimmick. But I didn't say I don't want to marry you.
But you didn't say you want to marry me.
After I was discharged from hospital, you said we didn't need to marry right away.
We could go on dating first.
During the TV show, you said you hadn't formally proposed to me yet.
You didn't want to make me marry you. You would wait for me.
You didn't expect I would immediately say yes.
You agreed to marry me only because you couldn't eat your words.
I'm not as aggrieved as you think. I'm fine. I'm willing to marry you.
It's true that if you hadn't said yes immediately,
I really didn't have plans to marry you so soon.
But since you already said yes, I don't mind. It's OK for me.
You don't mind? It's OK for you?
Absolutely.
Tik-tik, if I want to get married, the bride has to be you.
Like you said before, it's a bit of a rush.
But it's OK to ride with the tide now. The outcome is still win-win.
Marriage is a game of winning or losing to you?
Since you want to win so much, I'll let you win it all. I'm out.
No, tik-tik. That was just an analogy.
Let me give you an analogy too then.
If getting married is a gamble, I'm folding even though I've placed my bet.
It's better to get out sooner than to try and win back what I've already lost.
I don't want to end up losing the rest of my life.
Even if there was no diamond ring or a romantic proposal,
I still won't hesitate or change my mind as long as you're the groom.
Because you're my dream man. I'm willing to say "I do" a thousand times.
I love you.
I've never said these three words before. I'm true to you, Tik-tik.
I know what I did was wrong. I know it's hard for you to forgive me.
But I want you to know and believe that I'm true to you.
I never expected I would feel so sad hearing the words "I love you".
I once trusted you so much.
My intuition told me that we would be together. We would be so happy.
But now...I don't even trust my intuition, let alone what you say.
Tik-tik, you have to believe me. I was afraid to say this before.
But it's different now. I know we'll be happy.
I mean it. The wedding is off. We're breaking up.
Tik-tik.
At least I'm true to her.
Based on this alone, I shouldn't give up so easily, right?
Hmm...
I've been talking to you for half an hour. Don't just say hmm to me, OK?
Hmm...
You think I deserve this? I don't deserve any sympathy?
No.
Or you thought I would end up like this? You think I'm a clown?
No.
Can you say something please?
Try to comfort me or yell at me. Give me some kind of reaction.
I think it's a shame.
Explain.
You're gifted.
Both Tik-tik and I believed that your potential wouldn't be overlooked.
You would get famous someday. Do you know that?
You didn't need to play such tricks. Couldn't you just wait a bit longer?
I've waited so long.
You know being desperate and unscrupulous have become a conditioned reflex for me.
You were OK with that too.
Yes. But even so, you shouldn't have used Tik-tik or hurt her.
I wanted to lie to her for you. But the truth couldn't be covered up.
And you were still so calculating up to the very end.
No human being would do that.
You even told me to lie to Tik-tik.
I really couldn't help you even though I'm your buddy.
Right. You're absolutely right. I have no excuses. I deserve this.
Mr But, it's time for the meeting.
I'm going to the meeting. Reflect on your mistakes.
Let me tell you, I do like Tik-tik. But don't get the wrong idea.
You're my best friend. You're the person Tik-tik likes.
I never wanted to compete with you. I just wanted to help you two.
Do you remember the case with Brother Tang?
You borrowed from your dad.
There was a condition.
Now I have to help him manage the family business.
I'm trapped here.
I'm telling you this not because I want you to think I'm really selfless.
I just want you to know I'm willing to do this for you.
Because you deserve me doing this for you.
I believe you're gifted.
You're the only person who can make Tik-tik happy.
Mr But, the meeting.
OK. Give me one second.
The meetings upstairs are dead serious.
I can't fool around the way we did when we ran our internet channel.
But you don't need to feel sorry for me.
Fine. That's all I've got. I'm only doing what I'm capable of.
But you're different. You're Song Sheung-hang.
Even though you've lost everything, still no one can take away your talent.
Look. I've made a sacrifice already.
You've also sacrificed Tik-tik.
You've sacrificed so much already. How can you make it a total loss?
We worked so long to get what we wanted, your so-called fame.
Isn't it time to come down to earth now and tell the whole world that
the Song Sheung-hang I most admire has real potential and deserves his fame?
Don't make me look like a fool.
Am I destined to be a loser in life? Actually even if I'm a loser, so what?
As long as we have the determination, we can change.
There'll always be a chance to overcome our failure,
a chance for a glamorous transformation.
Three weeks later.
Ms. Wah is still busy?
Ms. Wah.
What can I do for you?
I've finally finished the final draft of the lyrics for Glamorous Transformation.
It's way past the deadline.
I know you said you wouldn't wait any longer.
You have a plan B already.
But I've already finished it. I want to give you another option.
My concert is tomorrow evening. Every/thing's set already.
You're giving it to me now. It's meaningless.
Perhaps one shouldn't calculate so much in life.
Sometimes, there's nothing to lose from doing something meaningless.
Glamorous transformation was my idea.
I believe no one can write the lyrics better than me.
I know you don't want to see me because of Tik-tik. I'm leaving.
But I do hope you won't let what happened between me and Tik-tik affect your decision.
It took so much for us to get to this point.
I have never given up. I hope you won't either.
The seats in the front are almost full.
Master Kai and Lydia are here? OK. Let me make the arrangements.
You two are dressed so nicely today.
Are you two here at the concert as a couple?
We came to take part in Sis Fong's music party.
I've taken a break for so long. I'm making a new record now.
Of course I have to come learn something.
Didn't you and your mentor have a falling out?
Don't call me her mentee, because I'm her super fan.
Thank you, guys.
Let me show you two in.
Thank you...
Why don't you two let us take a photo?
That's right. You're so well dressed today. Let us take a photo please.
Lydia, Master Kai, your seats are here.
Please excuse me...
Uncle Long.
Tik-tik, please thank Fong-ying for inviting me.
Will do. Thank you for coming.
I need to get back to work. OK.
You're so beautiful today. Why don't we take a photo?
OK.
Ready.
One, two, three.
Let me see.
Lancy, wouldn't it be easier for you to talk if you sit here?
It seems I'm getting in the way.
Dad?
Thank you.
This way please, Jazz.
Dad, we don't really need to swap seats.
Life is like a play. I'm used to it already.
Since this is predestined, just let it be.
No matter where you sit, it's a happy ending for us to be able to sit together.
From a glorious rise, shining stardom
to today's glamorous transformation,
you three are so lucky to be involved.
Lucky or not, perhaps Fong-ying can only be admired on stage.
I don't agree.
I believe there's something for her off stage too.
It's just not you or me.
Shining, like stars twinkling.
Dressed elegantly, making an appearance on stage.
Flying. Dress made of clouds. Dancing to give out the scent of women.
Stopping at a distance for you to see. You can't touch her as she's an idol.
Power of a thousand times. Laughing or singing in tears.
I've forgotten. I would make the whole world drunk.
I'm a superstar.
Shining among flash bulbs. I'm for the world to admire.
Changing hues for my dream. Feeling so high singing.
No awkward silence on stage.
Shining, carry on singing. Bright like the shining sun.
Flying. Stay strong for love. Dancing with the scent of a woman.
Stopping at a distance for you to see. So uniquely beautiful.
A thousand nights. Singing on stage.
I've forgotten. I would make the whole world drunk.
I'm a superstar.
You are my superstar.
In the song I sang just now, "Making a Glaring Stage Appearance",
There's a line: changing hues for my dream.
Stardom was my dream. But it was a very narrow path.
You won't have a place if you don't fight for it.
I fought to get a place on the charts.
I fought to get prizes at year end. I fought to sell my records.
I fought to have more shows for my concerts. I was very snobbish.
I was afraid of reporters.
But I was even more worried when there were no reporters.
Isn't that really ridiculous? There were more ridiculous things.
The song Stardom brought me to another summit in my career.
But at the same time I experienced two failed marriages.
My daughter wanted to see her mom. She had to join my fan club.
Funny, eh?
A failed mom can never smile about that.
For success, I was unscrupulous.
Back then I wanted to protect your image. I made you break up with your lover.
I betrayed Kat Leung.
But then you betrayed me for your own interest. You betrayed me.
You asked the boss to fire me.
Was it because you were jealous of me? Were you afraid I would replace you?
For success, I hurt those who loved me and those I loved.
Lancy is your daughter too.
When have you ever fulfilled your duties as her mother?
There's really nothing that I want to talk to you about.
Oh, if you don't want to, don't force yourself to come to my wedding.
I'm used to it.
You didn't want to get a divorce; it wasn't because you wanted to hold the family.
You just wanted to protect your image!
We were a pair of wonderful partners on screen.
What about when we were at home? I was just a father at home.
There was no more passion or romance.
Did I ever have a place in your heart?
In the end, I'm a superstar. But so what?
I'm a superstar. But so what?
There may be a large audience.
But when the party's over,
when the glamor has faded,
the bright color turn gloomy.
I'm left alone on the stage. I feel so empty and lonely.
You might think you have a lot, but actually you've lost a lot more.
Is it too late to turn back at this moment?
Looking back at the farthest galaxy,
singing thousands of songs to make you feel less lonely.
I hope you will still remember I once sang my feelings and my thoughts.
I once gave.
I'm happy when you're happy. I remember how I cried back then.
Someday the curtain will rise again. Will you smile like you used to?
Remember the good old days.
Glamorous Transformation is the theme of my music party tonight.
Actually three composers wrote this theme song.
It also represents three different levels of meaning for me.
First, it represents my initial dream.
After experiencing so many different hues,
I've come back to the most basic and simplest love for music.
It also represents my greatest grief.
I lost my son Vince, Tong Wing. It really killed me.
I didn’t want to sing again because of him.
It's also because of him that I'm standing on the stage today once again.
Third and most importantly, it represents hope.
Even if you fall, you must stand up again.
You must maintain a beautiful posture and make a glamorous turn.
Then you can set off again.
Of course I won't miss the beautiful view on the journey this time.
Despite bright makeup, no woman can survive aging.
The lyrics are different?
Along the shore and in the setting sun, the scene fades gradually.
The mesmerizing crescent moon in the sky.
The sparkling spirit fades. The halo grows dim.
We talk about meeting and parting. Someday we will be back.
Wind and snow reflect in our eyes while we talk and smile weakly.
The story may be mundane. But the feeling lingers.
The music is played. Time is reversed.
The wedding is off. Let's break up.
All the years passing. We're back to that summer day.
The fervent love has become sublime. No need for superfluous words.
All the years passing. The best picture is in the song.
I turn around and set off afresh.
I have a friend who really likes to tease me.
He said he's not my fan. He even calls me a hypocrite.
But I'm still so grateful to him.
Without him reminding me,
I wouldn't have made this turn today.
Too bad he can't make it today.
Since he's not here, I won't call him my fan anymore.
I'll call him my bosom friend.
Why has the key changed?
Let there be applause and praise.
Someday you'll need to return what you borrowed.
That's fate and destiny. Fear not parting if in love.
The story is the most beautiful when you look back.
The music is played. Time is reversed.
All the years passing. We're back to that summer day.
The fervent love has become sublime. No need for superfluous words.
All the years passing. The best picture is in the song.
I turn around and set off afresh.
All the years passing. We're back on that summer day.
The fervent love has become sublime. No need for superfluous words.
All the years passing. The best picture is in the song.
I turn around and set off afresh.
All the years passing. We're back on that summer day.
The fervent love has become sublime. No need for superfluous words.
All the years passing. Like water flowing elegantly.
I turn around and set off afresh.
You're pregnant. You're still wearing heels?
I'm taking photos as a pregnant woman today.
Of course I want to look beautiful.
What if you trip?
Do you remember what I told you? What?
You may be the baby's dad,
but you mustn't bother her mom all the time.
When have I bothered you?
You still think you haven't?
You keep forwarding
those rules for pregnant women and guidelines for mothers.
You're not just the baby's dad. You even want to be my dad.
This is what a gentleman should do, OK?
Uncle.
Chi-yue, I can't believe you've finally been reined in by a woman.
I didn’t rein him in. He's been reined in by his daughter.
It's a baby girl?
OK. Once she's born, he can no longer be a prodigal son.
It's my choice. All set up?
Almost done. Want to take a look?
Mr Lui, congratulations on your shop
being selected as one of the top ten creative shops.
Please call me George.
Actually I owe it to the support of the customers.
Mr Lui, please sit properly.
Sorry...
Mr Lui, why don't you share
the difficulties you encountered while running the business?
Difficulties? Sure.
First there was that sick landlord who pressured me to pay rent.
I admit I was wrong about you.
He's amazing. He successfully restructured the studio.
He didn't just manage to pay me rent, he also made money.
Don't think of me as that lazy, spoiled scion anymore.
According to what you said, shouldn't I increase rent?
Apart from this sick landlord,
there's also this blunt professional photographer
who keeps criticizing me, and undermining my confidence.
What?
But he did that because he cares about me.
The studio is successful today
because of their motivation and encouragement.
Mr Law, why don't you tell us how you motivated Mr Lui?
You talk about it...
Actually it was Mr Lui who motivated me.
I've always loved taking photos with film,
because it had provided me with dreams, my livelihood and beautiful memories.
I couldn't let go for sentimental reasons.
But Mr Lui taught me to understand that bygones are bygones.
Things progress over time. Time won't stop for anyone.
So we need the courage to accept that and learn
in order to create new things.
Only then will a long life be meaningful.
You've taught me to be bold and decisive and to start a new life.
Are you being philosophical?
I want to thank you.
She asked how you motivated me.
I didn't.
But George has brought innovative ideas to the studio, successfully transforming it.
He deserves all the credit.
I owe it all to this professional photographer being here.
No wonder you told me
I didn’t need to bring along a photographer today.
Right. He's my exclusive photographer. I just tried to be like that young man.
Let me introduce him to you. Come on...
We can always celebrate with Champagne with Law Bun here.
That's right. You don't need to bring along a photographer.
But if I want to have a group photo of you guys
to record the history of studio,
Mr Law can't be in it then?
You can take the photo for us.
What? I don't have the confidence to use a traditional camera with film.
I learned how to do it before. I can take the photo for you guys.
You have to be in the photo too. The baby is one of us.
Never mind. Just set the timer then.
Law Bun doesn't like that.
I don't have a choice. We must try new things in life.
Tonight let's take...
Selfies...
This angle is excellent. I look so handsome like this.
This one is good... You're not smiling.
This one's the best.
I wasn't smiling? Look at you...
Hey, we spent three months scheduling this meeting.
Why aren't you guys eating?
We're looking at the photos of the concert.
Right. Right.
I'm sure Law Bun wants to give me a terrible surprise.
It's a pleasant surprise. You can't tell the difference.
Tik-tik, have you completed Law Bun's enrollment form yet?
It's done.
Enrollment? For what?
My fan club.
How can she make me join her fan club?
You're her manager now. You're not her assistant anymore.
You don't need to listen to her.
What's wrong with getting more fans for Ms. Wah?
Rule number 1 of the Manager's Code.
The artistes interest is of paramount priority.
You hear that? She's in charge now.
She doesn't let me do lots of things so I can protect my image. Help me.
I need a holiday for some free time.
You must update your Weibo while you're on your holiday.
Law Bun, you need to remind her to do that.
I'm just going on holiday.
That doesn't include reminding her to do her stuff.
There's one more thing.
Ms. Wah, what do you think I've discovered in the files of the new fans?
Hey, the files of the fan club contain personal data.
Why are you so shy?
I get it. Sis Yan, you've secretly joined Mom's fan club.
Really?
Will you waive the annual fee permanently?
Sure. Of course it will be waived.
Mom, this is not fair.
I paid the annual fees out of my own pocket all these years.
OK. I now announce that whoever joins today
will be entitled to a permanent waiver of the annual fees.
You should have said that before.
Help me. How can you force people to join your fan club? This is really crazy.
You should have said so earlier...
What's up?
Long time no see.
I haven't congratulated you yet.
There's been lots of talk about "Glamorous Transformation" and "Behind The Glamor".
The credit goes to you.
It's because Ms. Wah's life is so spectacular.
Otherwise they would only be ordinary works despite my effort.
This is out of your character.
You're usually really arrogant. You're seldom so humble.
I once thought that since everyone has to die,
all his effort in life should be focused on getting famous.
As long as you can... write a good book and a good song...
But now I realize that a person's success or failure
actually depends on how many people
will my for you and remember you when you're dead.
But the person who truly cares about me and has loved me all along
is no longer there for me.
You wrote the lyrics for "Glamorous Transformation".
I believe you understand its meaning and essence best.
As long as you don't give up,
everyone is entitled to a chance to turn things around.
Then will you give me a chance please?
One, two, three, cheese.
Guys, look who's here?
Come on, Law Bun, let's take a photo together.
Song Sheung-hang, Why haven't you shown up for so long?
I've been looking for you for three months.
I promised your housewife fans to get your autograph for them.
They've waited for so long. They almost killed me.
Now you suddenly show up but I don't have your books here...
Tik-tik...
This is Sis Fong's home. There must be stock for the autobiography.
I need several copies.
Sis Yuet. Yes.
Go inside and get me several copies.
Thank you.
I'll give her a hand.
Come on. Take a photo with my idol and post it on Weibo.
Come on...
Thanks for the trouble.
Would you take a couple of them to Taiwan as gifts?
The autographed edition can be sold at a high price.
Don't interrupt him, OK?
These books are not free copies.
You need to pay Fong-ying for that.
Copy that. Thank you.
Go...
So you're still willing to help Sean.
Do you remember that it's their planning to get married next week?
So, it is "planning" only.
Didn't you like the lyrics of Tuning in Glamor very much?
You want to give Sean a chance to turn?
I didn't want to give Sean a chance.
I want to give Tik-tik a chance.
Tik-tik.
I didn’t have a chance to tell you yet
that the lyrics for "Glamorous Transformation" were really amazing.
I can tell you wrote it with all your heart.
It wasn't just about Ms. Wah.
I know. The lyrics apply to anyone.
Take you for example. In the beginning, no one would buy your books.
They were going to be recycled. But now they're sold out.
I need to get back to work.
What's keeping you busy lately?
In the past three months, I've declined all job offers.
I wrote this book.
I've never been so dedicated in my writing. It's just been printed.
Do you mind if I give you a copy?
Of course I don't.
I've been a fan of your books all along. This has never changed.
Thank you for your support all this time.
Congratulations on writing a book that you really wanted to write.
As your reader, I'm happy for you.
Can you tell me how you feel after you read it?
You know readers' comments are very important to a writer.
Sure.
Remember to tell me after you read it.
My name is Chong Leung-wan. I'm 32 years old.
I studied journalism. I was once a conscientious reporter.
It's the duty of a reporter to expose the scandals of big business.
Perhaps I did it because I was poor.
But there are never allies for the righteous.
The truth is bound to antagonize people. I ended up getting censored.
I could only use an alias to write.
The name Chong Leung-wan disappeared into oblivion.
What went into oblivion wasn't just the name Chong Leung-wan
but also his romance.
I had a bleak future. She had bright prospects.
When a woman turns 30, a man really can't waste her time anymore.
Sol became a PR guy.
I no longer exposed scandals. I covered them up.
Then I met a rookie reporter. Her name was Auyeung Tim-Tim.
She was naive. I easily fooled her.
I used her to expose a scandal in our rival company.
Her fiance lost his job and she lost her fiance.
Ka-ming, I can survive even without you!
This silly reporter girl joined the profession
because of an article I wrote.
I led her astray. I had to do something to help her.
Marjorina is my idol. So?
Actually Marjorina is Song Sheung-hang.
I don't know if she was crazy.
She said it was Hong Kong peoples loss if I wasn't a journalist anymore.
She said I could win the Pulitzer. It was a crazy fantasy.
I think you'll get famous.
Thank you.
What a man likes most
isn't a beautiful woman with a great figure
but a woman's admiration.
That's the life of a creative writer.
It's OK to pull an all-nighter for several nights.
Then I wish you good luck.
A man is entitled to cry too. If you want to cry, go ahead.
Tik-tik, let's go.
Who are you to her?
I'm Tik-tik's boyfriend.
Come again?
No matter how silly Auyeung Tim-Tim was, she was just a woman.
No matter how mean Chong Leung-wan was, he was just a man.
Given Auyeung Tim-tim's encouragement,
Chong Leung-wan decided to pick up his former career
and write a sensational report.
But once the passion dies out, it's hard to pick it up again.
Perhaps it only took a ride in a sports car against the freezing wind
to cool his passion.
I saw Sean on TV just now. He was like a complete stranger to me.
Chong Leung-wan sold his love at a very good price before his wedding.
I'm waiting for you here. Stop sleeping. Wake up now.
The cost of doing that was of course his marriage.
I, Chong Leung-wan, once won the unconditional trust of a woman.
She was even willing to wait indefinitely for me.
I really want to be a woman
who doesn't mind only eating hamburgers with you.
Before I get famous, I won't date anyone.
But then I failed to cherish what I had.
If there's no trust in a relationship, can they still carry on?
I don't know how deeply you love him or whether you can accept him.
Men won't be moved by this. They'll just think you're really cheap.
I acted selfishly time and again.
In the end I had to suffer the pain of losing the woman I loved.
I didn't even have the opportunity to thank her or treat her well.
I don't deserve any sympathy or forgiveness.
I don't deserve any pity.
Our wedding is off. Let's break up.
The wedding is off. I have no one to blame.
But I don't want to give up hope until the last moment.
I haven't canceled our wedding. I will still wait for her.
Because I believe that as long as she shows up,
the wedding that was called off can be resumed.
I don't know the outcome.
I just know that I will wait for you amidst the water.
The only CUP'!-
So he wrote this book for me.
It's in the way you smile.
And when you hold me close, the whole wide world just disappears.
It's only you and me...
Don't come over. What's the matter?
I don't think we can get married.
You're here already. You're even wearing a wedding gown.
You love me, Tik-tik. I really love you too.
We were so happy just now. Did I do something wrong?
I'll change if I did.
This isn't about you. It's about me.
What's going on?
Did you see the flash just now?
Yes.
Do you know what that reminded me of?
I thought you had asked the reporters to come.
I thought you had set everything up for promotion again.
I didn't. I really didn't.
I told you not to come over.
In the past three months,
I realized that it means nothing to win the whole world if I lose you.
It's OK if I don't get famous.
But I really can't live without you.
I know you didn't do it.
But I can't help thinking that way.
I'm so scared. I don't know when you're lying to me.
I don't know when you're sincere or faking it.
I read your book.
I came to Taiwan.
I'm even wearing the wedding gown.
I really planned on marrying you.
But I'm sorry.
Please don't say sorry.
Do you remember what I told you before?
When there's no trust in a relationship,
breaking up is only a matter of time.
If I'm suspicious all the time, our marriage won't work.
Tik-tik, we've been through so much.
We're in this chapel now. You still can't trust me?
I'm sorry.
I should say sorry to you.
I took it for granted that you would be there for me.
Perhaps I made you wait too long.
If this is my punishment, I accept it.
But can you please give me a chance to wait for you in return?
I don't know if I can.
I will keep waiting until you trust me again
Taroko National Park is nice.
Why are you taking sneaky snapshots of me?
I like to. You should be honored to be my model.
Excuse me.
Mr Law, what can I do for you?
I suspect this woman sitting next to me is a fanatical fan of mine.
She keeps taking photos of me.
No, I didn't. I'm just shooting the clouds outside.
Anyway, she's disturbing me.
This is my personal time. I want her to put away her camera.
Well...
Hey, the camera is my personal property. I can put it anywhere I like.
No riff-raff can tell me what to do.
I may be riff-raff instead of a superstar.
Still, you have no right to infringe on my privacy.
Riff-raff or superstar,
you should just laugh your head off when you can.
And keep talking back when you can.
I can't believe this. You said it was a round-the-island tour.
Don't ask me to rent a bike if you can't ride it.
We don't need to ride a bike. We can take a train.
What's wrong with you?
It's so beautiful...Oh.
I guess I must be crazy. I asked for this.
What do you want?
Don't move. You look so cute when you're angry.
I want to take a photo of you. Don't move.
Relax. I don't know how to ride a bike. But you can teach me.
I can do it...So clever...Ouch.
Hey, how are you? Are you OK? Get up. Are you hurt?
I'm fine. It's no big deal. All beginners fall, right?
Most important is having someone to help me up
so that I can set off afresh and make a glamorous turn.
Let's do it again. Come on.
OK. Come on.
We talk about meeting and parting. Someday we will be back.
While we talk and smile weakly...
