" Our Glamorous Time "
Episode 25
Next, let us welcome the new cutting-edge designer, Lin Qian...
to introduce us her first round of designs.
Please look at the screen.
Where is she? Where did she go?
- What happened? - I don't know. Where is it girl?
Qian Qian, go, quickly.
- Stop. You can chat later. - I have to go.
Quickly, go.
Good luck!
You are finally here. It's your turn already.
I'm sorry.
You can start now.
I've incorporated a lot of Chinese elements...
in my designs.
Because I'm the main theme.
So, I thought back about the time when I studied abroad in England.
I've brought along many of my cheongsam.
My friends from abroad...
are stunned with the beauty of cheongsam.
Although cheongsam is beautiful and I really like to wear it,
it isn't very convenient for me when I wore it.
So I thought about...
Irene Galicina's design.
She combined overalls with fashion.
So I was thinking that...
maybe I can make cheongsam more wearable...
but at the same time, retain it's beauty.
That's why I've designed a cheongsam overalls.
Alright my fellow judges,
please give Designer Lin Qian her score.
Lieutenant Li.
Kill me if you dare.
Li Zhi Cheng, long time no see.
- Look, you've hit someone. - Look, you've hit someone.
How did you drive?
I didn't even touch him.
I didn't touch him. We can call the police.
He called, right on time. Hello, Director Li.
- Hello? - Is he almost here?
He's not talking. Hello.
Let's go to the car park.
We'll go to the car park now.
Li Zhi Cheng.
I want to kill them...
to avenge for my brothers' death.
Get in the car.
The first round of elimination for...
My Wardrobe Fashion Star Contest.
Lin Zi Kun.
Li Yi Yi.
Jia Jun.
Huo Man.
Alright, after the first round of elimination,
six models are left on the stage.
Let us congratulate them.
I hereby announce that Gao Lang and team Ning Wei Kai...
won the first round of this competition.
While Jin Yuan and team Lin Qian...
are the last.
You need to work harder on the next round.
Alright, before the second round of the competition,
Everybody has one hour free time to yourself.
Please enjoy.
Where is he?
That's right. Is he going to give you a surprise?
- Don't scare me again. - Director Li.
- Stop fooling around. I can see you. - Li Zhi Cheng.
Come out, quickly.
Where is he?
Director Li, I see you.
- Call him. - Alright.
His phone is ringing.
How come the door is unlocked?
This...
Where is he?
- The car key. - The car key.
Where is Director Li?
Director Li.
This is scary. Did something happen?
- Hello, Director Gu. - Ya Yi.
Is Lin Qian with you?
- We can't find her. - Director Gu, I can't talk right now.
Director Li is gone. I'll call you back later.
This call record is the same as yours just now, right?
Yes. The time matched.
Then why is he gone?
What should we do?
Li Zhi Cheng, quickly, come out. Don't scare me!
Director Li, stop fooling around.
Li Zhi Cheng, stop fooling around. Quickly, come out!
How about this Ya Yi. Let's go to the CCTV room.
No. How about you go back and wait in your room.
Maybe Director Li is on his way to find you now.
Give this to me. Don't worry.
- Make sure to keep it safe. - Don't worry. Bye.
Here.
Excuse me, can you please replay it from here?
Stop.
Can you rewind it? Please rewind it.
So, Director Li did it on purpose.
Go to the next clip.
There is none. This is it.
This is it?
No. Aren't the CCTVs in this hotel supposed to cover all places?
You should be able to see where he went next. Please take a look.
This clip ends here.
From here, this must be the blind spot in the underground basement.
So this is it.
Blind spot?
What is happening?
Hello, please help me check out...
Wood-pecker, Monkey and the others' hostel.
Were they in these past two days?
Director Gu, when I checked their rooms two days ago,
they weren't there.
But they are with Director Li.
It's normal for them to be gone once in a while.
Are you saying that they are gone for two days?
Yes.
Wasp is gone for three days I think.
He went back to his home town, right?
One person going back won't make the other five disappear, right?
Ya Yi.
- Director Gu, I've checked the CCTV. - How is it?
I realised that Director Li purposely called me to give me a signal.
But I couldn't see how he left his car key.
Then where can he go?
He disappeared after he went out of the frame.
I've looked through a lot of clips. But I didn't see him.
This is bad. Something serious must have happened.
Something serious? What kind of things?
Monkey and the rest are gone too.
We can't reach them as well.
Think about it, a group of people that is always on standby...
suddenly disappears all at once.
Nothing good will come out of it.
Seriously?
My worry now is,
the only group that dares to do this...
is that bunch of crazy hardcore criminals.
Let's call the police then.
It's not yet 24 hours after his disappearance.
It's useless to contact the police.
Then what can we do?
What are you doing?
Stop crying. Jin Yuan is here.
What if she asks me later? What should I say?
Don't say anything.
Why are you here?
Looking at the view.
My little Ya Yi, what happened to you?
Why did you look so upset?
Director Gu bullied you?
Sister Jin Yuan, I checked the CCTV.
I found out that Director Li has gone missing.
I've checked a lot of places but I couldn't find him. What should we do?
Don't listen to her nonsense. Your brother must have lost his way...
because this hotel is too big.
Impossible.
My brother's sense of direction is more accurate than a radar's.
Ya Yi, tell me. What happened?
My Qian Qian is participating in a competition. Of course I have to go.
I'll see you at the hotel in five.
Don't fret about it.
The people from the company is looking for him now.
I believe that my brother will be fine.
He had gone through so much.
We are already used to it.
But if Lin Qian knows about it,
how can she focus on the competition.
So now, we have to reassure her.
And we can't tell her that...
Monkey and the rest had gone missing too.
Especially you.
You have to control your emotion and don't break down.
Please, I beg you.
But she will find out in the end eventually.
We have to keep it from her for as long as possible.
Lin Qian.
How is it?
We still couldn't find him.
Are you able to be in contact with Monkey and the rest?
No. There must be an emergency in the company that needs his attention.
Is that so?
But I feel that if something comes up,
he'll try to find a way to tell me.
He wouldn't let me worry so.
So, something urgent must have happened.
Until he doesn't even have a chance to explain it to me.
My brother always comes and goes like shadow.
You haven't gotten used to it?
Even if you are his girlfriend now, he won't report everything to you.
How about this? When he comes back, I'll teach him a lesson for you.
He has gone over the line for making you worry.
I still want to look for him with you.
What about the competition? The next round is starting soon.
You can't give up half way.
Or else, how are we going to explain to Li Zhi Cheng later?
- I... - Lin Qian.
Just concentrate on your competition.
If I have any news, I'll tell you right away, alright?
We'll be going then. We can't stay here.
My fellow designers.
The title for our second round competition is already in my hands.
Are you ready for it?
Are the audiences ready for it?
Let's take a look.
Mask.
Please be prepared, my fellow designers.
We look forward to your wonderful performance.
I think...
Something is missing in the eyes on your drawing.
You.
Now, this is called dating.
Hello.
Designer Lin Qian doesn't wish to be disturbed.
Alright, then please help me hand over this food to her.
- Give it to her when she's awake. - Alright.
Listen to me.
All of you have to double your effort.
We are a team.
But they are on their own.
On top of our connection with Producer Wang,
it's hard not to get the first place.
Teacher Yan,
your...
Why did you come in?
Don't you know that a designer's creation is supposed to be a secret?
Are you trying to copy my design by coming into my room? Go out!
- We'll talk outside. - Don't pull me.
Zhan Hao Ran, you have the nerve to question me.
You are cheating openly.
Listen, Miss Li, don't venomously slander me!
- Go out! - Don't touch me.
- Make the call, quick.
Zhan Hao Ran, let me tell you.
The rules of the competition are stated very clearly.
Designers must create their works alone.
You have so many people in that room and you say I'm slandering you?
Let me tell you, you are in the wrong!
You've exhausted your talent, so you try to defame your opponent.
Let me tell you too, be careful of what you say.
Or else, I'll sue you for slander.
Are you threatening me?
Let me tell you.
I've never been afraid of threats.
I'll call the producer now so that he can deal with this.
- As you wish. - What happened?
What happened?
You came right on time. I want to report the people in his room.
Don't be rash, Miss Li.
Designer Zhan is our star contestant.
We are doing a special edition on him.
All the people in his room are our staff members.
Impossible.
Those people aren't wearing any tags.
And now is not the time for the shooting yet.
Miss Li, stay calm. We are doing an exclusive interview with Hao Ran.
Don't you trust me?
Hao Ran, go back and continue your work.
Miss Li, I'm not trying to offend you.
But as a model, it's inappropriate for you to enter the design space...
of your opponent.
What if they lost something? You'll be blamed then.
You are covering up for him. All of these are just dirty tricks.
What are you talking about? Time is essence in this competition.
We shouldn't disturb Designer Yan.
I'll definitely investigate it after the competition.
Producer Wang, with Li Jin Yuan's personality,
she'll spread out words about this. We'll be in a trouble then.
She's just a young lady. What can she do?
You can't let your guard down.
I've been in this industry for so long.
I don't want to lose everything because of some little mistakes.
If you are really worried,
then we have to strike first.
What do you mean?
Just do you work. I'll make the arrangement.
Grace.
Wake up.
Grace, wake up.
Grace.
What happened? Are you alright?
Are you alright?
Maybe my blood sugar level is too low.
Have you been on diet these few days...
because of this competition?
It's fine. I've always been like this.
What do you mean you are fine?
- Come, let me get you some food. - No need.
- No need, I just need to rest. - What do you mean by no need?
- I've carry you. - No, what are you doing?
So many people here. It's too embarrassing.
Then listen to me. Let's go out and eat.
Sister-in-law.
How is it? Is he found?
No. We've searched the house and the company. He has gone for 24 hours.
I want to ask you.
Do you have any secret dating place with my brother?
Or some other places that mean something to him?
The house and the company.
That's it.
Alright. Don't worry. Everything will be fine.
I came to disturb you because I'm too anxious.
Just concentrate on your competition.
Now, I just want to look for your brother.
I don't want to do anything else.
Many people here are from the show.
I don't want to muddle up our relationship.
Let's sit separately.
Attendant.
- Hello. - I don't need that. I want coffee.
And for that lady over there,
some boiled okra and chicken breast set.
- Alright. - Quickly.
I...
Why did you order for me?
You won't gain weight from boiled nutritious meals.
Thank you for trying to avoid suspicion.
I know you did it for me, not for you.
You think too much.
Teacher, all of them had gone back.
Our model is already at the backstage.
We are up next.
- What about Producer Wang? - He has prepared everything.
We have the drawing too.
The next model is going to showcase the end-product by...
our star designer, Hao Ran. The stage is yours.
Let us welcome Designer Hao Run to explain about his design concept.
Please look at the screen.
My design today is...
human figure covered in white cloth.
But actually, the thing I wanted to explore...
is the truth under different mask.
When you don't know what's beneath the white cloth,
you'll feel fear.
And because of this fear, you wouldn't dare to go near.
But when the white cloth is lifted,
the truth beneath the mask...
might be a beautiful world.
And it might be...
an unimaginable abyss.
Hao Ran is one of the designers that I've always kept my eyes on.
All of his pieces are minimalist fashions.
He uses the simplest of colours to sketch out...
the smoothest and most beautiful curves.
He shows great ingenuity.
I like it.
You can produce such great effect...
with fabric that is so difficult to handle in such a short time.
Usually, it takes a few men to get the job done.
Looks like Designer Hao Ran is a talent like no others.
Is my brother found? He has been gone for 24 hours.
We have been looking for him non-stop.
Most importantly, now,
you need to complete this competition without worry.
What competition? All of these are for show.
Do you know Hao Ran? He's a contestant and he's cheating.
I saw it in his room.
He has so many people working for him. It's like a football team.
And also Wang Wei Kang. I'm not sure he's a director or producer.
Let me tell you, he's an inwardly cruel person.
They are on the same side. They are working together.
Most of the time, this kind of competition is like this.
But most importantly, you just have to do your part well.
Alright, don't be angry. Look.
I've brought you your favourite snack.
I'm not going to eat it.
If you don't want it, I'll take it away then.
This is from your favourite shop, Liang Pin.
Give that to me.
Don't worry.
We'll find your brother.
But most importantly, now,
you can Lin Qian have to hold it together.
I know.
Lin Qian had designed such a beautiful garment for me.
And my brother is not here.
I'll definitely win this war for them.
That's right.
Next up, Ning Wei Kai's design.
The theme for this round is 'Mask'.
I've designed a casual wear.
It's a bomber jacket from the outside.
But inside, it's a soft suit.
The jacket is embellished by ribbon.
Besides being comfortable, it enhances the well-built body of the model.
The inspiration for this design is from a friend, actually.
She told me that...
cotton is 70 percent soft...
and coarse hemp cloth is 30 percent tough.
Why I always bumped into you?
I just finished picking up my fabrics.
Cotton is 70 percent soft...
and coarse hemp cloth is 30 percent tough.
It's quite respectable that you didn't choose...
silk just like others, Director Ning.
Actually, for a man,
a mask is his appearance.
And hiding behind the mask...
is his soft heart.
It's the same for women as well.
Next, let us hear the comments...
from our fellow judges towards Ning Wei Kai's design.
You've used such soft materials...
and combined the concepts of Western and Chinese.
I feel like this design is outstanding.
For men's clothing, the most important thing is the cutting...
around the collar, the waist and the sleeves usually.
Sometime, a simple design can be more attractive to all.
Compared to Hao Ran design, this design...
is more realistic and closer to the real life.
Grace, what do you think?
Just now, the other three judges...
had pointed out all the things that I wanted to say.
The most intense feelings I have towards this clothing is,
an innocent heart wrapped in a tough outer shell.
Well said.
Actually, Jin Yuan has the potential to become a model.
Such a special equestrian suit design.
It's wild with a touch of feminine grace.
Lin Qian, please explain your design concept to us.
Alright. Next, let us take a look at the screen.
I hope that I can bring strength to a person through my design.
Equestrian is a gentleman's sport.
It depicts the gentleman's elegance under the...
perfect coordination between man and horse.
But horse-riding itself is a wild...
and full of freedom kind of sport.
Under the mask of gentleman is a wildness as wild as a stallion.
Just like a very important person of mine.
No matter what situation he is in,
he'll face the battle like a hero.
So, no matter where he is,
I want to tell him this.
Believe in the strength of that wildness.
Believe in the wisdom of elegance.
This is the message I wished to convey through my design.
She has both the talent and strength.
Please write down your scores, my fellow judges.
Next, let us welcome the model of our next designer.
I have something to say.
You have to fail Lin Qian's product.
Why?
Hao Ran, I want to know what happened?
You have to take responsibility for your accusation.
Of course I understand.
In this modern world,
it's normal that a contestant wish to attract attention through a show.
But as an elder in this industry,
I can't accept that these young designers...
will plagiarise other's design to try to climb the ladder of success.
Teacher Hao Ran, plagiarism is the biggest insult towards a designer.
I think you need to provide proof if you want to accuse me.
Of course I have proof.
This is my previous design.
I put it in my drawing book.
But just now, Lin Qian's design...
is exactly the same as mine.
- Yesterday night, - How did he get Lin Qian's design?
Lin Qian's model, Miss Jin Yuan...
barged into my design room and made a ruckus without any reason.
After that, I realised that...
somebody had messed up my design drafts.
As for the rest, I don't think I need to...
spell it out for you.
Don't listen to his nonsense.
Lin Qian won't do something like plagiarism.
- What are you doing? - Keep quiet.
But...
Hello, I'm Wang Wei Kang.
This is an emergency.
Grace.
Since Lin Qian is suspected for plagiarism in her design,
shouldn't we disqualify her?
Producer Wang, I don't think a rash decision...
is what the people need right now.
You've said it just now.
Lin Qian is just a suspect of plagiarism.
For caution's sake,
I hope that you can find out the truth immediately.
And give everybody a just answer.
Yes, we need an explanation.
We need a just answer.
Designer Zhan.
We have a design concept for each and every one of our design.
I want to ask,
what's your design concept for this product?
What a joke. Of course I know about my own design.
Equestrian is a noble sport.
This is my favourite sport.
And the people around me know about it too.
This suit reflects...
my passion and taste for the equestrian sport.
Alright. Now, let me tell you about my design concept.
The double-breasted top of this equestrian suit...
originated from my graduation project when I was in England.
The overall style is built on the basis of the previous design.
Especially the protruding parts on the shoulders.
My inspiration came from a pointy design exhibition...
by Adam Watson when I was in England.
Ning Wei Kai was there too.
Most importantly, please take a look...
at the model's Roman boots.
The word 'Lin' is hidden inside the design.
This is a little habit that I have as a designer.
I want to ask you, Designer Zhan.
How did you plagiarise my design?
And how did you get my design and proclaim it as yours?
I can testify for Lin Qian.
Everything she said is true.
Take a look at this photo.
This is the live photo of Adam Watson...
in the pointy exhibition itself...
on July 2008.
I was there.
The protruding part of this equestrian suit...
matched the pointy elements in the exhibition coincidently.
Besides that,
because of that double-breasted top,
Lin Qian was awarded the University of York Annual Student Design Award.
So, Designer Zhan,
if you need evidence,
I can provide it to you right away.
Qian Qian, good luck.
Are you trying to revolt? Cut off Ning Wei Kai, quickly.
Don't. Let's listen to her first.
- Calm down. - Let her go.
My fellow judges, I want to report this.
The contestant, Zhan Hao Ran is cheating.
When I passed Zhan Hao Ran's room,
I saw that he has a group of people working for him.
The rules state that this is a one-man competition.
But he as a team working for him.
He has broken the rules of the competition.
Group work?
Do you have proof?
Of course.
Wang Wei Kang.
As a staff of this show,
you've helped the contestant to cheat.
My fellow judges, all of the hotel's video data and surveillance data...
are controlled by Wang Wei Kang.
Producer Wang.
I hope that you can...
share with us all of the surveillance data...
as soon as possible.
Turn off live broadcast.
I asked you to cut it off, didn't you hear me?
What happened?
Why did you turn off the screen?
Please give us an explanation.
Wang...
The microphone is cut off.
We are judges,
not clowns.
Fashion is a thing with character.
If the designer himself has no morale, what of his designs?
They even cut us off.
And cut off our visual.
There must be something fishy.
Wang Wei Kang.
I'll give you 30 seconds...
to give us a straight-forward explanation.
If I didn't get my answer in 30 seconds,
on behalf of H Corporation, I'll pull out from this competition.
And you'll be waiting for my lawsuit.
Thirty.
Twenty-nine, twenty-eight,
twenty-seven, twenty-six,
twenty-five, twenty-four,
twenty-three, twenty-two,
twenty-one...
Five, four,
three, two,
one.
Alright.
Our show is finally back online.
Now, I hope that Producer Wang...
can give us an explanation.
We'll be listening.
Where is he?
Okay.
I order to make sure that our show is just and fair,
I hope that Designer Hao Ran...
will use this chance to defend himself.
Let him tell us the truth of this incident.
Cut the scene to Hao Ran's room.
Hao Ran!
Producer Wang, is this the promise you gave me?
Don't you have any solution for the situation we are facing now?
- Isn't this your show? - You have the nerve to ask me?
If it wasn't for your untalented hide, I won't be attacked by the netizens.
Now, I lost the show and I lost my job.
You blame this on me?
If you can take care of Lin Qian and Jin Yuan, I won't be like this.
I have so many shows and exhibitions every year.
You ruined everything.
I don't care about your show or your exhibition.
I'll fight you to death.
Hao Ran!
Who is fighting who?
You ruined my show!
For the disturbance just now,
on behalf of the organisers,
my most sincere apology to all of you.
But it's my responsibility to make one thing clear to everybody.
Every score that the judges made...
is based only on the products themselves.
This has nothing to do with anybody.
Thank you.
Now, I want to announce...
the finalists for My Wardrobe Fashion Star Contest.
In first place,
Ning Wei Kai.
On second place,
Lin Qian!
Qian Qian!
As a designer,
I'll keep my original aspiration.
I won't be willing and I won't plagiarise.
And I believe in justice.
What are you doing?
I just want to tell you that...
the way you lead just now...
is quite cool.
Just now, someone...
has protected his own junior dashingly without thought.
The intensity of the relationship is quite magnificent.
You are quite cool yourself.
What do you mean?
She's the one who fought by my side when I was still a poor student.
Of course I need to stand up for her.
This is camaraderie.
Why? Are you jealous?
Why would I get jealous?
I just feel that...
you aren't even scared to offend the people running this show.
So, I...
I admire you.
When did you become such a confident man?
Who did you learn it from?
Don't tell me you are lead astray by Chen Zheng?
Why are you so aggressive every time you talk to me? Like a mask.
Can't you be sincere just like when you...
commented on my design?
I prefer the you on stage.
I'll treasure that.
Have a good rest.
And be prepared for the third round of the competition.
Come down.
