Flavour It’s Yours
Episode 3
What?
The wine in Muunas Winery is spoiled?
Yes.
I’ve talked to the winery owner.
The wine will be destroyed
instead of selling on the market.
Mr. Lu,
I admire your decision,
but in that case we’ll recommend
a type of wine
that’ll never appear on the market!
Mr. Lu, it’ll put us in a difficult position.
The one who brought you this trouble is not me
but the winery.
I’ve examined the new wine of the winery
according to the requirements of the selected topic.
I have to write about the truth.
Sorry.
Mr. Lu, I…
Mi Ya,
has Lu Weixun delivered the article yet?
If not, you’ve got to carry out plan B.
He has.
How come I didn’t see it?
I’m still editing it.
That’s not necessary!
We don’t have time.
Plus, Lu Weixun never allows us
to edit his articles.
It’s an exception this time.
Let me see.
I can’t use this article!
I asked him to write about red wine tasting.
But now he sent me an article about some wine
that won’t even be sold on the market!
Then what’s the point?
It’s a useless article to us!
Mi Ya.
How did you communicated with him?
If you can’t deal with Lu Weixun,
Then
you can forget about your special column
of Chief sommelier.
Alright,
let’s use the backup plan.
This is not the best option.
I’ve thought about
a solution which allows us
to use his article as the way it is.
I’m listening.
Although this article is about
Lu Weixun’s opinion on a new wine,
I can put an editor’s note
after the article,
making it an interview about Lu Weixun.
Interview?
He persuaded the winery owner
to destroy the wine,
even if it means the owner
will have to bear huge loss.
This will become shocking news in the industry.
We can take this opportunity
to publicize Lu Weixun in a positive way.
Everybody knows
that Lu Weixun writes article exclusively for Dr'Wine.
A positive publicity about Lu Weixun
will also benefit our magazine.
Mi Ya had a nice talk with Chief Editor.
Really?
I heard that Lu Weixun didn’t deliver his article on time.
The column will go blank this time!
You didn’t see
how angry Chief Editor was
when he went into Mi Ya’s office.
Mr. Lu is arrogant and unyielding.
Mi Ya will have a hard time again.
Let’s pray for her.
That’s a good idea!
Then draft an article now.
- Hurry! - Okay!
Mi Ya.
Good job!
What’s going on?
That’s right.
I think the column can’t continue anymore.
- It’s never happened before. - Never.
What are you talking about?
Have you done your work?
That was easy!
Mi Ya is amazing!
I have good news for you!
What good news?
We’ll be able to
pay De off soon!
I thought we’ve already paid him off.
You must be confused.
That’s right!
Dad.
You are right!
I’m confused!
What do you want?
Where are you?
At home.
I’ll be there soon.
This is the first time Dr'Wine introduced a type of wine
that’ll never be sold on the market.
Although the wine has been destroyed
following Mr. Lu Weixun’s request,
it shows the winemakers’
perfect pursuit of the quality of wine,
and the absolute trust
between winemakers and sommeliers.
This time, instead of recommending a new type of wine,
we’d love to focus on the winemakers
and sommeliers’ belief in wine.
Lu Weixun,
I can only help you this much.
How a man behaves in front of wine is how he behaves in life.
The article had a problem.
The sommelier doesn’t live up to his reputation.
You can’t taste the flavor anyway.
So water will be fine for you.
I’ve been thinking about
the pattern of our sense of taste exchange
these days.
The first time it happened at the hospital.
We exchanged our sense of taste
at about 12 p.m.
But I lost it again
in about one hour.
The second time it happened in Muunas Winery.
I noticed
that it was
at about 5:17 p.m.
After I tasted the wine,
I kept drinking the bitter gourd soda.
Then I lost my sense of taste again
at about 6:07 p.m.
It was 50 minutes,
almost an hour.
So?
Are you stupid?
Don’t you understand what I’m saying?
I do.
So what?
Aren’t you curious about
what exactly happened in there?
I’ve been thinking about
why you are so rich?
You have so much money
that you don’t even think about how much you spend.
Being a sommelier is really that lucrative?
That’s why you can’t wait
to get your sense of taste back, right?
How much is your sense of taste worth exactly?
Greedy!
Anyway.
The lips contact
is only part of the reason.
We need to find out the rest.
How?
Let’s replay every detail when we first met.
Why do we have to replay this part?
The sense of taste exchange
was triggered by multiple factors.
Time, location, people and event
are all possible factors
that may cause the exchange.
The error can be minimized
by controlling variables.
But, I…
I smashed your side-view mirror
right at here.
So you mean you want to do it again?
It’s up to you.
Then I wanted to get my plum bottle back.
And I refused to give that to you.
So I tried to reach it.
Then you asked for my ID card.
You didn’t give me
but stamped on my foot instead.
I’m sorry!
Then I stepped back, further and further.
And there was a car coming.
Then,
I saved your life.
And we…
No,
at that time, you lied on the ground.
Lie down.
Come on.
Hurry.
Don’t just stand there.
Come on.
Forget it.
It’s too dirty on the ground.
We’d better stand up…
I’m the boss!
It’s back!
Lu Weixun.
I can’t stand this job anymore.
I want a raise!
Mine is back!
40 minutes.
The first time it was from
12:05 p.m. to 1:05 p.m.,
60 minutes altogether.
The second time it was from 5:17 p.m. to 6:07 p.m.,
50 minutes.
And this time
it was only 40 minutes.
Every time we kissed,
the overall time will
reduce by 10 minutes.
So before we can find out the way
that’ll allow us exchange the sense of taste for good,
we only have
three chances left.
Three more?
She stays by your side,
but you appear in front of me again.
We pass by each other,
our thoughts start spreading along the coast.
We are struggling in between the hardship.
I’m surprised that we are not innocent anymore.
Love is dangerous,
miracle really exists in this world.
10 minutes shorter each time.
The God must suffer from OCD.
Dear audience!
Welcome to the second episode of
Gourmet is Yummy!
Could you taste the dish and tell me
what’s the dish is made of?
Whoever wins will be rewarded with
a big prize.
That much money?
If you are confident
about your sense of taste,
come join us now!
That’s right.
Since I’ve got the absolute taste,
I can’t waste it.
Hello, Mr. Lu.
Next month will be the founding anniversary of our magazine.
We want to focus the topic on
the history and future of red wine.
Cliché.
Right.
I know the topic is not creative.
So,
the Chief Editor picked two bottles of vintage wine.
They respectively
represent the past and present of red wine.
Those are actually what we want to introduce.
Terra Andina Suyai wine
Grand Cru Classe wine of Chateau Haut-Brion.
Edward truly went all out this time.
Hope we’ll have the honor to work with you.
Can’t believe you delivered
such premium wine via express!
What a joke!
Sorry,
I’ll deliver in person next time.
If there’s nothing else,
I’ll hang up now, Mr. Lu.
Mr. Lu, I’ve heard that you are gifted in wine tasting.
Even though owning such a talent,
you are still modest,
hardworking and proactive,
receiving great attention.
You are not conceited,
on the contrary, you are very down-to-earth.
I admire your spirit
and I sincerely hope
that I’ll be allowed a chance to meet you in person.
I happened to
obtain a bottle of fine wine.
I’d love to
share it
while enjoying a nice chat with you.
I hope you can accept my invitation.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Mu Chunfeng.
Boring!
Sorry.
I need to take this.
Okay.
Hello?
Gourmet is Yummy!
Taste the surprise with your tongue!
Welcome to…
Where are you?
Why is it so noisy?
I…I’m outside.
Come back now!
We have work to do.
Is it urgent?
It’s not convenient for me right now.
Can I come back later?
When?
10 p.m.
Okay.
10 p.m.,
see you at Mbook Café.
Don’t be late!
- Don’t be late. - Was it Lu Weixun?
I just work for him.
It’s not like he owns me!
You’ll be on soon.
Don’t be affected by him.
After several rounds,
the last two contestants
definitely possess
keen sense of taste!
Okay,
next,
we’ll present the last dish.
The dish includes
quite a few seasonings,
which are all blended in together.
Which one of them can list all the seasonings
and get all the questions right?
Alright!
The dish has been
brought on the table.
Let’s see what’s going to happen next!
The dish looks very enticing!
Okay!
Are you two ready?
Alright!
Ready? Go!
Contestant No. 2 smelled it first.
Then she took a bite.
They are both savoring carefully right now.
Judging from their expression,
I think
they’ve got their answers.
Okay,
then next,
please hear the
first question.
What’s the “meat” in this dish made of?
Tofu.
Bingo!
Congratulations,
your answer is correct!
Okay,
now it’s the
last question for today.
Let’s see if contestant No. 1
can come back!
Please bring us the question board.
Good.
Now, please get ready.
Our last question is,
what are the 14 seasonings included
in the dish? Please list them all.
One point for each seasoning.
Ready?
Go!
The two contestants are both quite good!
They are in the same pace.
Nice! Go on!
Contestant No. 2
seems to encounter some problem.
She stopped.
But contestant No. 1
keeps going.
He has listed 7 seasonings,
leaving contestant No. 2 behind.
Contestant No. 2 tastes the dish again,
hoping to find that missing flavor.
Come on, contestant No. 2.
Our contestant No. 1 has only one more to go!
His victory is upon him!
Contestant No. 2!
Can you figure out that missing flavor?
Congratulations! Contestant No. 1 won!
He’ll be awarded a big prize!
Congratulations again!
It was a very intense contest!
Cheer up! Contestant No. 2!
Your performance today was not bad at all!
Although you didn’t win,
you should still be proud of yourself.
I…
The flavors I’ve tasted are too few.
It’s okay!
Try to taste more food.
Hope you can
enjoy the lovely world
of gourmet
in the future.
Because
food is the essence of life.
I believe that you’ll become
an excellent gourmet one day.
Now, dear friends,
let’s please give her
a big round of applause again!
He Buzui, let me toast for your brave!
Cheers!
One cup will be enough to make you drunk.
Don’t drink that much.
I’m fine!
It’s nothing.
You know
that I’m good at discouraging people.
Don’t think today is bad,
because tomorrow will be worse.
It’s not too bad.
You have temporary sense of taste now.
Don’t mention that to me.
The trouble I have right now
is all because of that temporary sense of taste.
I don’t even know
whether I’m cured or not.
The God must have a reason
to make it this way.
Only lamb kidney
can make me happy now.
If Lu Weixun knew that you are eating lamb kidney,
he’d be furious.
Boss!
She has such a strong presence!
Hi!
Any table available?
Let me ask.
Excuse me.
Is it ok if this lady shares the table with you?
Sure!
Here, take my seat.
Please.
Bring a set of cutlery.
Okay!
Chicken heart, pork aorta, gristle, duck intestine,
beef kebab and mutton shashlik, 10 for each.
A can of beer and a lamb kidney kebab.
Thanks.
Okay, they’ll be ready soon.
You ordered so much!
We ordered pretty much the same.
Great minds think alike.
Tell me about it.
Two girls who both like lamb kidney sit together!
It takes a hundred years to stay in a boat together,
and it takes a thousand years to sleep on the same bed.
Since we sit together today eating kebabs together,
I’ll see you as my friend from now on.
My name is
He Buzui!
Hao Yong.
Mi Ya.
Why are you sighing?
I’ve gained a superpower recently.
But I don’t know how to use it.
It feels like I missed
100 million.
What about you?
Our partner is too difficult to work with.
He’s arrogant, aggressive and a perfectionist.
So hard to please him.
Same as my boss!
He thinks he’s the center of the universe.
And everybody should revolve around him!
So tell me,
how did you lose your 100 million deal?
I found that making money through eating
is not as easy
as I thought.
Tasting the flavor alone won’t be enough.
It’s 10:10 already!
I’ve reminded you earlier.
I have to go now!
You guys continue.
Hao Yong, please pay the bill for me!
I’ll go pay the bill now.
Sir.
Go straight, then…
Turn left.
Excuse me,
did you see a man sitting here earlier?
He’s tall and handsome,
but with a deadpan face!
Are you looking for Mr. Lu?
He left at 10.
10?
Oh no, I’m dead!
My boss is mad at me.
How can I make it up to him?
Boss,
sorry,
it was my fault.
It won’t happen again.
The youngest master.
A talented boy with absolute sense of taste.
Young master ran away from home.
Disqualified successor of a wealthy family.
Mr. Wine,
Prince charming of young girls.
Young girls,
wake up.
Lu Weixun,
why didn’t you reply my message?
There’s no point to apologize.
The result is irreversible.
Then you should at least talk to me.
Do you know
an arrogant boss like you
is really annoying?
I don’t care if you like me.
You just work for me.
That’s right.
You are just my boss.
Then what are you going to do next?
As a sommelier with contract spirit,
I’ll add supplementary terms.
Can I say no?
You don’t have to accept.
And I don’t have to pay you.
Don’t always threaten me of not paying!
You really think money is that useful?
What do you think?
Sometimes it really is.
But I have right to know
the contents of the terms.
I’ll talk to you tomorrow.
Contestant No. 2! Come on!
Come on!
Our contestant No. 1
keeps going.
Congratulations!
That’s my daughter, He Buzui!
He will be awarded a big prize!
You got up!
Congratulations!
Buzui.
See, how nice your boss is!
He has something to talk to you
and he came very early.
Mr. Lu.
You are here to have breakfast?
Watch your mouth!
He is your boss!
If he wants, you even need to cook him
Manchu-Han Imperial Banquet,
let alone breakfast.
Dad,
have you been brainwashed by him?
What brainwash?
I’m just educated!
Have some water, please!
Come out with me.
Please forgive her.
Mr. He, I’m leaving.
Okay.
Take a seat.
You tried to make money with my sense of taste.
Seems like you are not satisfied
with the salary I pay you.
If you don’t like this job,
I can ask De to talk to you.
I just wanted to pay you back
the money I owe you as soon as possible!
Lu Weixun,
you should know that
not everybody is as lucky as you
having a wealthy family
and no life pressure.
Lucky?
Sure,
meeting you is actually a real bad luck in my life!
Since you were absent form work yesterday,
I need you to sign two supplementary agreements.
First,
I need to clarify the ownership.
What ownership?
The ownership of my sense of taste,
and the right of final interpretation.
You will only exercise those rights on behalf of me for now.
In the future,
you need to get my permission
every time you use my sense of taste.
And you can only use it after I approved.
So you mean I have to report you whatever I eat and drink?
Yes, all of it!
This is the due responsibility
of a beneficiary like you who gains my sense of taste
to shoulder
for a victim like me.
Okay.
I guess it makes sense.
I’ll do that.
In addition,
I heard that you once worked a bodyguard?
So what?
That’ll affect your sense of taste too?
The second agreement I want you to sign
is security agreement.
Finally you realized that your way of act
will put you in danger!
The thing you need to protect is my sense of taste.
From now on,
you’ll need to work eight hours longer.
From 10 a.m. to 4 a.m. of next day.
You need to be wherever I am.
Your salary will be raised to 10,000 Yuan per month.
But there’s no compensation for working overtime.
There are 24 hours a day.
You ask me to work 16 hours?
You think I’m your pet?
Yes, you are!
And not as obedient as pet!
You violated labor law.
Then I’ll ask De to talk to you?
Then what am I supposed to do when you go to bed?
There are enough rooms in my house for you to sleep.
I can take the night shift at home.
At home?
Miss He.
You’ve blown that chance!
I promise I won’t make the same mistake as yesterday.
as yesterday again.
Since you were absent from work yesterday,
I’ve lost my faith in you.
I think you also want to pay off your debt as soon as possible.
I’ve bought more hours from you.
And you can earn more money.
It’s a win-win,
and the best solution.
Moreover,
I can’t let you disturb my regular life,
so you can only bring a 24-inch suitcase.
Thank you!
Beidao.
Why do you name the bar “The Ba?”
Does it have any particular meaning?
Why didn’t you come to the amusement park that day?
I’d been waiting for you.
Where have you been?
Where are you?
What do you do?
It’s been seven years.
I’ve never heard from you.
I’ve learned how to protect myself.
You’ve got to take good care of yourself.
I’ve had a bit issue with an annoying guy recently.
Like I’m not unlucky enough!
But he’s not that evil.
A little bit like you.
Lift it up.
As the owner of this house,
there are a few things I need to emphasize.
What things?
First,
no noise.
Second,
you can only eat
at the dining space.
Third,
water the orchid every day,
and avoid rotting the roots.
Last one,
also the most important one,
you must follow my order!
Come with me.
This is your room.
Be gentle!
You can go out now!
