(Episode 1)
Have you ever thought about what will happen in your future?
As an 18 year old...
...I have never imagined that this will happen in my life.
Seeing stars, counting meteors
Praying about you and I, a far away view within a second
Counting meteors with stars, a heart is formed
The most beautiful glow in all of eternity
Every moment feels romantic
A beautiful night of stars shining wondrously
When stars are counting meteors
To form a better me and you, walk across the clouds in happiness
My name is Dong Shan-cai. I am a simple 18 year old girl.
This is my beloved Mom.
A round face, big calves, loud voice.
And physically strong with an optimistic view.
I should have resembled my Mom alot.
You are shopping vegetables only but making such a mess.
Sir. I want this one.
Sweet and sour ribs is the main course in the Dong family.
Eversince I could remember...
...enjoying Mom's cooking with family is the happiest moment.
What's that smell? Smells so good.
It looks delicious.
Done.
Spiteful girl, who says you can steal food? This is for customers.
You have been eating this for 18 years. Is it not enough?
A lifetime won't be enough.
That is why I am determined to go to Ming De University,
majoring in nutritional science.
I want to expand Mom's culinary business.
Spread joy to more people.
My dear daughter./ Dad.
This is my Dad. A supervisor in a logistics company.
He is also a good husband who really loves his wife.
And a good Dad who loves his daughter.
This is Xiao-you, my high school classmate.
Because of desire for tea, that's why after high school exams are over...
...I will join her working part time at a milk tea shop.
We spent a long and peaceful summer vacation.
Just like the days before.
But all peace is destroyed today.
Three, two, one.
Accepted.
Truly accepted. Xiao-you's third wish...
...is to go to Ming De University majoring in Tea Culture.
While me...
Shan-cai has succeeded in being accepted to Ming De.
This is all due to the teachers' care.
Congratulations Shan-cai for being accepted to Ming De./Thank you.
I have finally succeeded in being accepted to Ming De University as I have dreamed.
Just as I hoped, I am a student majoring in Nutritional Science.
Mother. Is this the legendary Ming De University?
Yes. This is the best campus.
Shan-Cai, you have to do the very best you can.
Your beautiful life will start from here.
Come on. Let's do this.
Shan-cai, I am so happy that we are both able to attend Ming De together.
Since the third year of high school, we're always together.
Didn't expect that we can be together at the campus too.
I am truly lucky. This is better than winning the lottery.
I am very happy./ Shan-cai.
You... Let me think a moment.
Li Zhen.
You're the pretentious and quiet kid from the class next door. Li Zhen, right?
That's my friend, Chen Qing-he.
We're in high school together. Now we will be in college together again.
It seems as both of you have a very good friendship./ Of course.
We're best friends. Such good friends that I have
even followed Shan-cai to the same University.
We wrote about our 3 dreams together./ Why did you write it with her?
I don't want to be apart from her.
It doesn't matter which major I take, it's all the same.
I must run our family banana business when I return.
Bananas are very good. Nutritious and delicious.
Yes. The most important thing is that bananas are very emotional.
Bananas are very emotional?
Because while socializing amongst our peers, only a small portion are true friends.
You guys are truly compatible./ Of course.
No matter what Shan-Cai and I will be college classmates.
Shan-cai, lucky for me that i will have both of you there.
If not, I will surely be lonely.
From now on, the three of us must keep our friendship, to get through these 4 years.
I, Dong Shan-cai am ready.
I am ready to enter Ming De campus of my dreams.
To do my best and focus on my new life.
Are you ok?/ Be careful./ I am ok.
Sit down quickly. The speech is about to start./ Hurry.
Next, we invite Mr. Bobbitt that has come from USA.
Bobbitt./ That's great.
Ming De is able to invite Bobbitt.
When I get home I must tell my Dad and Mom. They will be jealous.
Distinguished leadership, teachers, dear students, good morning.
Thank you very much for letting me to share this wonderful day with you.
I suppose to say something funny now. Please don't record.
So I would do that.
Welcome to Shanghai.
Look at my photo.
Shan-Cai, the photo result is very clear.
Send this one to me. I want to make a birthday cartoon./ Is it your birthday?
Happy Birthday./ Happy birthday.
It's not today. It's in two days.
Send it to you./ Ok.
The speech is really great.
It's really good./ Me too.
Who is that there?/ I don't know.
What's going on?
Is it F4? Let's go take a look./ Ok.
Shan-cai.
Excuse me. Sorry.
Ms. Dong Shan-cai. Go home and think it over well.
Whatever your reason, you cannot be rude to Mr. Bobbitt, our esteemed campus guest.
Look. She's the one.
She's that student. Dong Shan-cai.
Why did she attack Bobbitt?
Yes. Maybe she's crazy.
There must be something wrong with her brain./ It's a shame.
How can our campus have such a student?/ Yes.
Look. She's the one.
Shan-cai, are you hurt?
Shan-cai, I'm sorry. This is my fault. I wasn't able to protect you earlier.
Why did you attack Bobbitt? / I didn't attack him.
I was looking for F4 that was wearing green crocodile shoes.
My phone was stepped on by one of them.
F4? Who's F4? Where do we go look?
Maybe they're the ones who were targeted by junior students for photos.
It looks like he is very popular./ F4 are the favorite seniors.
New kid?
The three of us are new and majoring in Nutritional Science.
You.../ Majoring in Informatics 6th semester. My name is Guo Cai-jie.
You are so pretty, Cai-jie.
Cai-jie, why are F4 the known as the favorite seniors?
F4 are 4 8th semester students at Ming De campus.
On average, their heights are 1.85 meters tall.
Handsome and superior. Optimistic and happy.
The most important is that individually, they are good in their own fields.
Shut your mouth, baby, stand and deliver
Holy hands, oh, they make me a sinner
Like a river, like a river
Hua Ze-lei is a student majoring in music. Xi-men majors in management.
Mei-zuo and Dao Ming-si.
These 4 guys are the cause of many people's attention.
They are able to obtain superior scholarships.
They are fluent in 3 different languages.
They are not only smart in their studies but also have a luxurious lifestyle.
Eventhough they may look like players, they're very respectful of women.
The four of them are very close.
They have been childhood friends.
It's very difficult for others to enter their group.
Because of that, F4 has an aura of mystery at Ming De.
Women idolizes them.
For those guys that won't admit defeat and want to challenge them...
...many will stand in a long line to duel with them.
They want to prove that they are more charming and more well-liked.
Make a challenge? How?
With Bridge.
Bridge? What's that? Never heard of it.
Bridge is an elite sport game of cards, cultured and popular internationally.
A game that requires expertise and cooperation.
F4 are not only the big figures at Ming De,
they are also superior in the world of Bridge.
So if you want to beat them, the best way is through the game of Bridge.
The only thing is, since F4 created the Bridge club, nobody has beaten them yet.
They must be great.
At the Bridge table, the four of them has their own skill.
Feng Mei-zuo is quite artistic, he likes literature and art...
...superior in mapping out plans, scheming.
At the Bridge table, he has amazing memory.
What he sees will be recorded instantly in his brain. Besides that, he loves to joke.
In the middle of his teasing, his opponent often becomes careless.
They underestimate their opponent.
Yan Xi-men has the calm personality, born into a tea business family.
He has a deep knowledge of tea.
At the Bridge table, he is the expert at strategy.
He is a whiz in taking advantage of his opponent's mental condition.
Often appears at the front but attacks from behind that defeats his opponent.
Even his opponent has no idea how he has lost.
He has been nicknamed the god of Bridge.
Hua Ze-lei has a gift in music.
He can capture every tone precisely, mastering different music instruments.
He always gets scholarships in music every year.
At the Bridge table, he seems quiet and calm.
His opponents are often confused in deciding whether his cards are good or bad.
Some describe it as if there's an illusion of him having x-ray eyes.
Ones that can see through the cards and techniques of his opponent.
There are some that even said, whenever his opponent sees him smile,
...they will voluntarily reveal their cards.
Dao Ming-si is the leader of F4.
The news is that he is very keen on and talented in the financial field.
When he turned 18 years old, he succeeded in getting huge profits from playing stocks.
This story has become a legend at Ming De.
At the Bridge table, he is unpredictable.
There are many who trembled and made mistakes due to his charm.
Beating an opponent that had good cards.
Regrets come when the game is over.
These four superior people has won many Bridge medals for Ming De.
They are the pride of Ming De.
Cool.
Even if they are great in Bridge...
...it doesn't mean that they can step on someone's phone and not apologize./ Yes.
Let's go to the Bridge room to look for them now.
If they won't apologize...
...I am going to challenge F4, so that they will apologize.
Challenging them is not an easy thing.
You have to get the Joker card first.
What's the Joker card?
That's the challenger card from F4./ Challenger card?
Because there are so many that want to challenge them. They are overwhelmed.
So they made this rule.
To challenge them, you have to first get the chance...
...face to face with them, and state your challenge.
If F4 feels that you have fulfilled their conditions...
...then they will give you a Joker card and the appointment.
But before the competition starts, you have to agree to the bet.
Bet?
There are many stories about the bets.
There are some funny ones. There are also spectacular ones.
For example?
For an example, the loser has to clean the campus trash for a semester.
Stand in the middle of the campus pool, half squatting for the whole day.
Staying overnight in the laboratory room with a skeleton in it.
Scared until you faint.
Or having to eat a hundred buns at once in an hour.
Another example is the loser has to perform a traditional dance at the beach.
There is a silliest story.
But even now nobody has been able to prove it.
It was about a loser eating a pair of sandals.
Knowing this, are you guys still willing to challenge them?
Over there is the senior Bridge room.
Good luck.
Shan-cai, are we still going to find F4?
Yes. Why not?
The guilty one is the green crocodile that stepped on my phone.
Why should I be scared?/ Yeah. Who's scared!
Let's go.
This is the place?/ Yes.
F4, come outside./ Yeah. F4, come out now.
The green crocodile is the one who stepped on my phone, you have to replace it.
Yeah, you have to replace it.
If you won't come out, we will enter./ That's right.
If you won't come out, we will enter challenging you.
It looks like F4 isn't here. Let's go.
Yeah. From the information Cai-jie gave us...
...the four of them are easy to recognize.
Right. As long as we see someone tall.
Long legs and pretentious. Can't be wrong.
How about them? Is it them four?
Looks like it. The feeling's strong.
Hey, green crocodile!/ Got a problem?
What's this?/ A broken phone.
Do you know why this phone's broken?/ Not my problem!
How is it not your problem? You were the one who stepped on it.
When?/ When the speech ceremony was over.
A group of people hurried over to you, I got shoved around.
My phone fell to the floor. Then you stepped on it until it's broken.
I'm not done talking.
Forget about it.
Shan-cai. Forget about it.
You guys.
I am Professor Ma who teaches the theory of Nutritional Science.
This your first course.
Please state why you are attending Ming De.
Because this is the best school.
Want to participate in practices.
Learn to work together in a team.
Because Ming De has the best professors.
With a good environment to learn.
So we will be the most successful people.
All of your answers are quite good.
But I will tell you that it is quite difficult to pass my class.
In these 4 years, I will apply the highest standards for you.
You will probably be miserable, even hate me.
Despite all that, I will not soften at all.
I will tell you this sentence.
A person's ability is limited. But, a person's determination is limitless.
Don't be bound by your abilities.
Be a team player with the 4 people next to you.
Soon, we will be working on a team report.
Spiteful girl, what are you doing here?
Mom, I have a high school classmate named Li Zhen.
She's also going to Ming De. It's her birthday tomorrow.
I want to make her a tasty tart but one that will not make her fat.
How is there a tart that won't make one fat?
Of course there is. Our professor said so.
Just switch the milk with a fat-free one.
Then reduce the amount of sugar by half. Simple right?
My daughter going to college is not in vain.
She has learned to make a great tart.
You are only making a tart, so why are you making a face like that?
Enough. Let's continue.
Shan-cai.
Kind of ugly. Hope you don't mind.
I really like it.
Did you know? This is the first time anyone has ever made me a birthday cake.
I don't have money to buy an expensive present.
This is something I can give you. But eating this won't make you fat.
There's also a card./ Don't read it yet. Read it at home.
If you read it now, I will be embarrassed.
Well then, let's take a photo with the cake.
It's kinda crowded here. Let's go over there.
Ok. Let's go.
How about here? Let's take a photo here./ Ok.
You stand there. So I can take a photo of you alone./ Ok.
Move forward a little bit./ Like this?
I can't get the cake into the photo. Walk forward a little bit more./ Ok.
Are you ok?/ Yes.
You scared me. Be careful.
Here's your phone./ But your cake fell. I wanted to pick it up.
You guys again.
I'm sorry. It was an accident.
If apologizing is useful, we wouldn't need the police anymore.
Dao Ming-si, let me clean it.
Go away.
Are you alright?/ Yeah.
Stop.
He didn't mean to do it and he has already apologized to you.
You don't need to be this mean about it.
You pineapple head who thinks he's so smart and wears green crocodile.
Thinking that you are such an important figure here.
Always acting snotty and doing whatever you want wherever you go.
Won't even apologize for stepping on someone's phone. What a jerk.
You.
You're remarkable.
Shan-cai, why were you arguing with him?
I don't know why I became so emotional.
Alright. I won't do that again.
Joker card?
Shan-cai, why do you have the Joker card?
You must have made Dao Ming-si mad that time.
Dao Ming-si wants me to play Bridge with him, and to make a bet.
I won't ignore him.
Shan-cai, where are you going?
I want to take a walk.
A bunch of weird people.
I just want to do well in this school. Why give me the Joker card?
And to step on my phone. Making me embarrassed in public.
F4, you are all jerks.
I put a curse on you that beginning tomorrow, your phones' signals will be intercepted by aliens.
Can't make calls, can't wechat, and can't play games.
Can't get on the internet forever. Won't be able to have a phone to use for a lifetime.
Keep stepping on your own feet while walking and falling into dog poop.
Sleeping at night while dreaming of headless vampires eating you.
Your nose hairs will keep growing.
Grown so long to reach your head and tied up with your hair so that it can't be detangled.
And then?
After the nose hair are tied up with head hair?
Then.../ Will you be happy?
Are you mocking me too?
Why must I be mock you?
Aren't you one of the F4?
Yes, but I am not interested in others' business.
This way.
Pass it here.
Good.
Come on, Dao Ming-si.
Good.
Shan-cai, come on over.
Shan-cai, look.
He is the Upper Classman that I like. I want to make a video.
Later when I will bring the drinks over...
...your job is to record us together.
I... have something to take care of. I gotta go.
Shan-cai, you are selfish. You won't even help me on this.
Alright.
Hold on.
That lemonade...
Why record me?
Who's recording you?
What do you mean?
Bye.
Shan-cai. There is an order of 20 portions of food.
You will help deliver them./ Alright.
Uncle, excuse me. I would like to ask where is the cafe at the back of the court?
Thank you.
Sir, here is your order.
So it's you. You're the one that ordered it?
Yes. I ordered from you. You should be happy.
Here are the 20 portions. Enjoy.
Wait.
What else do you want?
I haven't checked whether this is my order or not.
I have to make sure you delivered correctly.
This is the food you made right? It doesn't look delicious at all.
If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it. I will take them back.
I am the one paying for it. I get to decide who eats it.
Do you object?/ I know you want to mock me.
But on what basis should you be harrassing somebody's hard work?
Don't you know, this order has taken alot of my Mom's energy and time.
Don't be unreasonable./ I'm unreasonable?
Your behavior towards a customer should be more friendly.
Friendly behavior is reserved for good customers.
You don't deserve it.
Say it one more time.
I will say it again, so what!
Everyone says that Ming De students are all smart kids.
They learn international ethics, family values are also very good.
But as far as I can see, what you did today has made me ashamed for you.
Someone who doesn't understand others' hard work...
...is society's trash./ Shut up.
Who told you to insult me first?
You deserved it.
Miss, why do you look so embarrassed?
Miss, don't hurry off./ Let go of me.
Don't be shy. We are good people.
Let go.
We are good people./ Let go.
What are you doing?
Go away.
Nosy.
Why?
Why did Dao Ming-si treat me like this?
Clean your face.
When you feel like crying, stand upside down so that your tears can't fall.
Let me borrow it.
Eat sandals.
Shan-cai. Come on, hurry and eat your breakfast.
My dear daughter, eat quickly.
You have already eaten two. This is for our daughter.
You have to replace my phone./ It's none of my business!
Get out!
This is the food you made? It doesn't look good at all.
Shut up.
A person's ability is limited. But, a person's determination is limitless.
I will fight.
Shan-cai, good morning.
Dao Ming-si.
Seeing stars, counting meteors
Praying about you and I, A far away view within a second
Counting meteors with stars, a heart is formed
The most beautiful glow in all of eternity
Every moment feels romantic
A beautiful night of stars shining wondrously
When stars are counting meteors
To form a better me and you, walk across the clouds in happiness
Shoulders leaning against each other, embracing a smile Sitting looking at the moon
Who wants to play Bridge with you!
I Dong Shan-cai cannot be mocked as you wish.
