Flavour It’s Yours
Episode 1
WSA
is short for Wine & Spirit Association.
Whoever is acknowledged by WSA
will possess the power
of classifying and pricing wines.
Lu Weixun
is known as the youngest member of WSA ever.
That’s why
he is seen as a professional sommelier in China.
Lu Weixun is well known in the industry
for his accurate classification and strict pricing.
Unfortunately,
such a perfect and handsome man
is ruined by his bad temper!
This is a simple wine!
Perfectionism!
OCD!
Mysophobia!
The wholesale price of this wine
Unreasonably!
should be less than 100 Yuan.
And its retail price should be no more than 200 Yuan!
You are literally destroying my brand!
Your brand is destroyed by yourself
because you are unaware of your brand positioning.
Good! Awesome!
Good! Good!
Thank you, guys!
Amazing!
De!
You are here!
- De, how are you doing? -Stop!
Save it!
Be quick!
That’s it?
Only this much?
I’m telling you,
if you don’t pay me off
by the 10th of next month,
you and your father can say goodbye to your peaceful life!
Understand?
De, don’t you worry!
I will figure out a way to pay you back!
But my father
is old
and not in good health,
he can’t take any fright.
If he has any accident…
Stop! Stop it!
So what, if he has an accident?
You think I’ll be responsible for the rest of his life?
He’ll become my father after being yours?
I won’t use my life in exchange for money!
Please understand that it’s not easy for me
to come out at night and stop you on the way.
It’s very difficult for me!
De, take it easy!
Luckily, I outsmart him!
Otherwise this will be a hard month again!
Still can’t taste anything!
My senior,
where are you?
Dad!
It’s getting cold.
Don’t do the accounts outside anymore.
Buzui,
why father’s accounts don’t match again!
Let me see.
You put one more zero here.
One more zero?
Count again.
That’s right!
I’m getting more and more confused.
It’s okay!
Don’t worry.
You are
the so called “never-get-drunk” who defeated Black Whirlwind brothers?
That’s me!
My rule here is simple.
You win if you can
drink all the liquor on the table within one minute.
You win,
the money is yours.
You lose,
quit the drinking gambling forever!
That easy?
Easy?
I don’t think so!
The liquor on the table is
much stronger than the regular one.
It took me a long time to find it.
But,
it’s worth
to using it challenge you!
Okay!
Good!
Zui!
Had a nice drink tonight?
Not bad!
It’s the same every time.
But the liquor today was
little bit different.
It gave me déjà vu.
As if I drank it before.
I thought you don’t have sense of taste.
How could you tell the difference?
It felt different.
What are you doing here?
I’m here to check on you.
I’m late!
I have another appointment to go! See you!
Careful!
Be safe!
That crappy bottle of yours will break sooner or later.
Other girls
carry Doraemon or Baymax,
but you
carry a crappy bottle every day!
It’s not a crappy bottle!
It’s…
a secret!
Secret…
I know it was a gift from your prince charming!
Wait!
Stop!
8820!
Keep one meter away from me!
Why?
You think I’m going to eat you?
You smell like alcohol!
Why did you risk your life chasing my car in a hurry?
My stuff got stuck on your car.
Give me!
What…what do you mean?
Under such circumstances,
- I had no other choice! -Your ID card.
I don’t have time.
Leave me your ID and phone number.
I’ll contact you later
to talk about the compensation.
Then give me the bottle first!
Your ID card!
Alright!
Watch out!
Have a cup of frothy coffee in the morning
when I’m thinking about you.
Close my eyes and enjoy the aftertaste.
Didn’t sleep at all last night,
worrying that you’d refuse me.
A glass of old wine would make my drunk,
I relive the past over and over,
and start missing you more and more.
Give me another chance
to be with you.
What are you doing?
That’s my water!
You are unreasonable!
Forget it!
Since you saved my life,
I won’t bug you anymore.
I have another drinking appointment to go.
I’m leaving, see you.
No longer see!
Right, no longer see!
It’s the money for repairing your car.
I’m at the
activity site right now!
Are you also looking forward to the activity
as much as I do?
Friend,
you don’t know Lu Weixun?
He’s a professional sommelier in China.
His sense of taste is beyond your imagination!
He’s an absolute talent!
“Thank you, love you so much!”
I love you too!
This netizen named “Cry in a BMW,”
don’t try to mislead people.
My idol depends on his own ability
to become famous in the field of wine commentary,
which is known by everybody.
Right?
That’s right!
Let me warn you again!
Don’t mislead people!
My idol left home when he was 20
and began to fight for a career on his own.
The rumor about him from a rich family
came out after he became famous!
He’s about to join this crossover cooperation
because he wants to prove to his father, who’s not supportive of his career,
that he can become a star in his own right
in a field he’s interested in!
He’s here!
Lu Weixun! Lu Weixun! Lu Weixun!
I love you! Lu Weixun!
Lu Weixun! I love you!
Calm down! Calm down!
So handsome!
Idol!
Sorry!
You win
if you can drink all of it within one minute!
One minute?
You sure?
What?
Too short?
More than…
Are you alright?
More than I need!
I might catch a cold.
Doesn’t matter.
Are you nervous?
To be honest,
a little.
This.
What’s that?
Plan B.
The right order of the wine tag.
Memorize it beforehand
in case of any accident.
I don’t need it.
Good!
I admire your confidence!
But remember,
you only have 60 seconds.
If any accident happens,
I’ll have to smash the water tank.
There won’t be any accident.
I promise!
Okay!
Good!
Ladies and Gentlemen!
I’m magician Alexander!
It’s a pleasure to be here in China, an ancient mysterious country!
Ladies and Gentlemen!
Good evening!
Evening!
Please allow me to introduce to you
the most beautiful lady tonight, Ms. Marilyn!
And the most special friend tonight,
talented sommelier,
Lu Weixun!
Lu Weixun! Lu Weixun! Lu Weixun!
Tonight,
keep your eyes open!
Don’t be deceived by what you see!
I’ll invite three people from the audience to join our dinner party!
Here!
Me! Pick me! Me!
Nice!
Our dear guests
have picked their favorite wine.
The three cards in my hand
will give the description of the wine picked by the three guests.
But,
Mr. Lu
is only allowed to find the three types of wine
with his super sense of taste,
and find the right position
from the coded lock that seals the magic sword
so as to release the sword
and save my beloved!
Mr. Lu,
I’ll describe the three types of wine now.
The first one
reminds you of a harvest orchard in fall.
The branches are covered with crimson berries.
Deep in the orchard,
you can see a young girl in a light pink dress.
The second one
is like a benevolent senor gentleman in grey hair.
With a mischievous child in his arms
on New Year’s Eve,
he is peeling the walnuts, hazelnuts and almonds
that spread out on the table,
one after another,
and feed the kid patiently
with pure love and care.
That’s the second one.
The last one
brings you
to a primary forest.
Along the fragrance of the wood, you can’t help but walk
on a path that leads you to a vapor-enshrouded lake.
You are surrounded by a bunch of dancing butterflies
in the shrubs that smell like aromatic red berries.
Mr. Lu has only 60 seconds
to give us his answers!
- One! - One!
- Two! - Two!
- Three! - Three!
Nice!
Good! Very good!
Crimson berries.
A girl in pick dress in the strawberry field.
A bit of sweet.
The only glass of pinkish wine.
Bonus question!
A senor gentleman in grey hair.
Pure!
It should be white wine.
Senor man.
Sophisticated.
It surely is aging wine.
The under-brewed wine can’t compare to this.
Go! Go! Go!
Come on!
20 seconds left!
You still have two cups to go.
Awesome!
What?
Can’t drink anymore?
Go! Go! Go!
Come on!
Aside from the different years,
these two glasses of wine don’t show any difference.
Interesting.
I can’t smell it.
Still can’t!
Can’t tell by taste either!
No taste!
How come?!
Why isn’t he moving?
Something’s wrong?
No way!
There’s still time!
Give me the ax!
In 2009,
the ideal weather in Burgundy
created the best condition
for wine growing throughout the region.
In December, 2009,
a severe frost hit the region,
causing the temperature decreased to
minus fifteen degrees from five degrees,
which damaged quite a lot grape vines.
In 2010,
the damp and windy weather
affected the flowering of the grape vines,
leading to poor structure of the grapes.
So, the correct answer
should be the wine produced in 2009.
Wait!
Struggle!
The desire for life!
Ladies and Gentlemen!
Marilyn!
Thank you!
Why?
Buzui!
Is this how you react to loss?
You’ve just lost three times! Three!
Can’t believe you still have the energy to eat!
You can’t taste any flavor anyway!
Why did you ask me to buy you so much food?
I’m the one should eat
to maximum it’s value!
I’ll eat too!
I bought the food.
I need to make my money worth!
Let me digest a bit.
It’s too delicious!
I must eat as much as I can,
in case
I’ll lose my sense of taste again tomorrow!
Do you know how long it’s been
since the last time I had boiled pork entrails with cake bits?
Delicious?
Yes!
You can taste it now?
You regained your sense of taste?
Come in.
Has Lu Weixun delivered his article?
We should have received it yesterday.
What do you mean by “should have?”
Mi Ya.
The article is very important to the issue of this time.
The magazine is waiting to be printed right now.
If we don’t hear from him,
we’ll be screwed!
We’ve worked with Lu Weixun for a long time.
He has never delayed.
Don’t know what’s wrong this time.
But I trust Lu Weixun.
He won’t delay
unless there’s an emergency.
Are you sure it’s not because
we are not happy about his work this time?
Don’t worry, Chief Editor,
I’ve already had a backup plan.
If I don’t hear from him in three days,
I’ll replace Lu Weixun’s column with something else.
I’ve discovered a new sommelier recently,
who is just as good as Lu Weixun.
I’ve had the draft in my email box.
Do you know why I admire you so much?
Because you are outstanding!
Super outstanding!
If there’s nothing else, I’ll go now.
Sure!
Egg, 240g.
Sugar, 120g.
Cake flour, 120g.
Emulsifier, 10g.
Water, 28g.
Milk, 28g.
Buzui!
I know your sense of taste recovered.
But I think your stomach can’t take it
if you keep eating like this!
The number you dialed…
Sir,
I don’t see a problem with your health.
Miss,
you should pay more attention to your health.
You need to be careful about what you eat!
Doctor,
my sense of taste is back!
I lost my sense of taste.
I didn’t have sense of taste before.
My job requires me to have sense of taste.
I just want to make sure that it won’t be gone again.
Your checkup results are all normal.
Maybe you should go see a psychiatrist.
Doctor,
I don’t have mental disease.
The people who see a psychiatrist
may suffer from psychological problems,
which could cause the loss of sense of taste.
The people nowadays are under a lot of pressure.
They may suffer from
sub-health problems such as
headache, anxiety, tension and insomnia.
Or they may be lack of certain trace elements.
For the sake of safety,
I suggest you make a thorough check!
It’s too desperate!
It makes sense.
But I want to know
how come my sense of taste
came back all of a sudden?
Will it be gone again?
Sir,
I’m with a patient now.
Come with me!
- Could you wait outside? -What are you doing?
- Let go of me! -Sir!
Are they sick or not?!
Let go of me!
Go see a doctor if you are sick!
Why are you taking me?
What do you want?
Take a sip.
Tell me the flavor.
Are you crazy?
I’m not a fool.
Why would I drink it?
I’m telling you,
the camera has captured
what you did to me just now.
Don’t you dare hurt me!
What are you doing?
I’ve paid for your car.
This car is imported from Britain.
The damage assessment fee alone would be over 40,000 Yuan.
40,000 Yuan?
Are you blackmailing me?
Take a sip,
we’ll call it even.
Bitter gourd soda!
40,000 Yuan for a sip?
40,000 Yuan for a sip!
Say again!
40,000 Yuan for a sip!
I’ve recorded it.
Drink it!
How does it taste?
It’s horrible!
If it’s not for that 40,000 Yuan,
I will never drink a gross thing like this!
I’m asking you about the flavor.
I taste a bit of sweet after the bitter.
What’s the percentage?
7% of bitter
and 2% of sweet.
I don’t know where those numbers came from.
They just came out of my mouth.
It won’t affect the compensation fee, right?
Mine!
Yours?
I’ve given it to you.
This is mine!
How did you take it away from me?
Give it back to me!
Are you crazy?
What are you talking about?
I’m not rich, but I have my pride!
I didn’t steal or rob.
Why are you accusing me of taking your stuff?
Don’t slander me!
The most important thing in my life!
What is it?
Give it back to me!
Buddy,
are you kidding?
Don’t pretend anymore.
Don’t tell me that was your first kiss!
Look at you.
You are a grown-up already!
You think you can fool me?
Buddy,
don’t be so sad.
It was just a first kiss.
Actually,
you took my first kiss too!
Let’s forget about it.
Are you going to let me take any responsibility?
First kiss!
You don’t have to be responsible for me.
Even though I was the victim,
I didn’t blame you at all!
You see,
I drank the soda,
and I’ve told you the percentage.
I’m leaving!
What are you doing?
You took my stuff.
You must give it back to me!
