[Just An Encore]
[Episode 29]
Are you studying?
Get out if you don't!
Of course.
I'm
just happy.
Nonsense!
Won the lottery?
Found some money?
Almost there.
Stop it!
What's going on?
I brought
Senior to the Cross-river bridge.
We
rode a bike together.
Shouted each other's names together.
And we made a deal of a year.
Are you sick?
Who's riding a bike here?
Either uphill or downhill.
Not your concern!
I want to
be different.
Well...
What is the deal of a year?
It's...
I won't tell you.
Don't disturb me.
So,
Senior told you to
study hard?
No, no.
She
ask him to go to hell.
You're jealous of me
as I have the motivation, but you don't.
Piss you off!
I...
Learning is so hard.
I don't even understand it.
Dean.
No big deal.
You shouldn't get mad.
Of course I'm mad!
Look what are you doing?
I ask you.
Why He Xin Liang
appears in the name list
of Sports Special Talent Exam?
He signed up himself.
What?
I told you for many times.
He Xin Liang's parents
don't let him
to play basketball.
He's going to join the scientific research in the future.
How can you let him sign up?
I'm not his parent either.
Moreover,
he wanted to play basketball.
If you let him make his own decision,
what's our responsibility as teachers and parents then?
Cultivate their interests and
fulfil their ambition.
You!
Nonsense!
We should
assist them to achieve their future.
Understand?
Alright.
Cut the crap!
Hurry.
Delete his name!
Hurry.
Delete his name!
No way.
Trying to rebel?
I actually wanted to quit.
They are all good seeds.
Talented, serious in training
and capable.
Especially He Xin Liang.
Why don't you let him choose his own dream?
Alright.
Don't want to delete it?
Well...
I'll tear it off.
You...
What's the matter?
Dig in first.
Say it first.
Quickly tell me.
Money?
Shoes?
Propose again?
I feel sorry to you.
You want to quit?
You're an unreliable man.
I didn't want to quit.
I can't help even with my resignation.
What's so serious?
Mr. Zheng
stopped you
to join the first round of selection.
I've handed in the list.
But he banned it.
What makes him to stop me?
Not his concern!
I'll see him.
Come back.
Sit down.
He didn't even listen to me.
How can he listen to you?
We have to figure it out together.
What's on your mind?
I just want to
play basketball.
Let me tell you my experience.
In fact, it's really hard for athletes.
Besides
the normal injuries,
the point is,
athlete has a very short sports career.
Very short.
You're
doing good in your studies.
Let's say you can get in a good university
and to be a scientist.
I think it's good too.
So,
I think you should...
Traitor!
Hey!
How could you say that?
I'm doing it for your own good.
You must have
a smoother life.
What's a smooth life?
That's all your mind.
I don't want a smooth, but unhappy life.
Look at you.
You're just too young.
When you get more mature,
you'll know
how hard it is for everything to go smooth.
But I don't want to.
Maybe you're right.
I'll regret in the future.
So what?
It's more than 10 years later.
I don't want to give up
my persistence and dream
just because I might regret in the future.
Or I'll regret now.
No matter what,
I want to fight for myself.
Where did you get this?
Quiet.
I got it
from Mr. Zheng.
"Name list of Sports Talent Selection"
I thought he tore it off.
Silly.
I printed another copy.
How did you know it?
I heard Mr. Zheng quarrelling with Old Han.
And the list
was handled by sports department.
I was thinking
to help you with my power
before the exercise of authority.
So, I changed the electronic record
and swapped it with Mr. Zheng's name list.
Will it get you in trouble?
I'll handle it myself.
What else you can do?
You know Mr. Zheng's bad tempered.
Do you think he'll say yes to you?
Moreover,
what if you
expose that I misused my authority?
I owe you a big favor.
Say it.
I'm willing to do anything.
Mind your words.
It sounds like
I did it for a reward.
Hey!
To me,
you're good at basketball
and willing to work hard.
So, I helped you.
I
have no dreams.
If I can help to make your dreams come true,
it makes me feel
I'm useful.
In fact,
you...
Keep it.
Someone's here.
I'm leaving.
Come on.
I'll take attendance.
Yan Hai.
Yes.
Guo Chao
Yes.
Yi Liang Ting.
Yes.
He Xin Liang.
Why are you here?
To take the exam.
Exam?
Any problem?
No problem.
Let's run then.
Alright.
Yan Hai.
Guo Chao.
Don't be left behind.
Hey!
Aha!
Come on.
Stand by.
Ready.
Stop it!
Go!
Stop it!
He Xin Liang.
Mr. Zheng.
Ouch.
Are you okay?
Yan Ze.
You are on purpose.
Ouch!
What's wrong?
Ouch!
You're the one who hit me.
What's wrong with you?
Hurry up!
I accidentally...
You hit your knees?
It's painful!
Sprained your leg?
Here.
My leg hurts.
So serious?
Let's go to the infirmary.
1 minute.
Let's go to the infirmary.
I can't walk.
Can't walk?
I'll get you there.
He Xin Liang, number 1!
Mr. Zheng...
It seems I don't feel pain now.
It's alright now.
See you.
Awesome.
You ran so fat.
Mr. Zheng.
Who let He Xin Liang take part in the body test?
It's in the list.
I thought you let it go.
Look.
Well...
You're all allied.
Alright.
I'll check it out thoroughly.
Mr. Zheng.
Anything?
Ms. Wang.
I want to see Yan Ze.
Yan Ze?
We're having our lesson now.
I'll ask her to see you after class.
Mr. Zheng.
Anything urgent?
Ms. Wang.
Huh?
It's a
very serious matter.
Mr. Zheng.
Self-management Society will assist you
when the students made mistakes.
But we're in the class now.
Or you go back first.
Ji Xiao.
Don't involve into this.
Yan Ze has made a serious mistake.
She must go with me
to make it clear.
Come on.
What's going on?
Hurry up!
Go.
I just heard it.
What now?
It's my fault.
I'll tell Mr. Zheng that I give up.
Calm down first.
Yan Ze tried so hard to get you the qualification.
How can you give up?
Her hard work is in vain then.
Moreover,
they just want to understand it and
didn't conclude it.
When will they conclude it?
It's too late then.
Too bad!
Gosh!
Yan Ze is going to be dropped out.
What?
I just passed Mr. Zheng's office.
I heard
it's too serious
and my sis will be dropped out.
Impossible.
Really.
It's true.
They said,
Sis Yan Ze
entered the school net
and changed the exam list.
It's a serious mistake.
So,
she'll be
dropped out.
No.
I can't let her be dropped out.
I'll give up the selection.
Wait.
I have an idea.
What's that?
Why don't we kidnap Mr. Zheng
and threaten the school?
I'll gather people.
The school values the students the most.
If we can unite all the students
to sign a petition for Yan Ze,
the school might reconsider it.
Means,
there's room for it if we sign the petition together.
Hmm...
I'll join you.
Not only students,
but the teachers too.
Let's
gather the names of all the teachers and students
to plead for Yan Ze.
"Petition: Please don't drop Yan Ze out"
"Dean's office"
I'm fine.
Don't comfort me.
I bet, I pay.
I didn't mean to comfort you.
Just want to see you cry.
Heartless!
Who am I doing this for?
Don't disturb her.
We have solved it half.
What?
Solved it half.
Ji Xiao got an idea.
We've gathered signatures for 100 people.
Mr. Zheng agreed
to reconsider the punishment.
And he said,
if you get into top 50
in the next exam,
he'll be lenient to you.
So,
you guys
signed the petition?
Luckily you used to be likeable,
or you'll be finished.
Thank you!
I...
Wait.
You
just said,
get into top 50 in the exam?
Hmm...
I...
I prefer to be dropped out.
We'll help you.
Art is not that hard.
As long as
you study hard.
But that's...
Cut the crap!
This is your only chance.
Don't let us down.
Hey!
Why are you here?
Do you like it that much?
You practise it all day long.
Really want to be James, huh?
I didn't think much.
Just want to play basketball.
He Xin Liang.
In case your parents and Mr. Zheng put pressure on you and
stop you to join the selection test
and delete you from the list,
your practice will be in vain.
Why are you laughing?
Practice makes you sick?
I'm laughing at you.
Why?
I was the one who helped you.
Yes.
You tried hard to help me.
And even made a big trouble.
But you know
everything might be in vain in the end.
Then why you did it?
I...
Well...
I...
Never try, never know.
You taught me that.
You said,
Get this thing done first.
When you can't get through from here, change another route then.
Such a stupid.
Can't belive you're good at studies.
So,
no matter what,
I'll still try and
work hard.
Even if it doesn't work, I will not regret it.
I'll feel sorry to myself if I give up at the beginning.
Now you might think
every day, every second
of every minute
is nothing.
In the future, we'll find that
every day,
every second of every minute
won't come back again.
17 years old is just once.
I don't want to give up.
I don't want the Future Me
despise myself.
Yan Ze.
Don't always think it's hard.
Although it may be really hard,
ask yourself,
do you really try your best?
Have you tried?
A Happy Excursion
Zhuang Zi.
In the northern ocean,
there's a fish called Kun.
I don't know its length.
Maybe thousands of li.
Kun then turns to a bird
which called Peng.
I don't know its wide.
Maybe thousands of li.
When it flies,
its wings seem to cover the clouds.
It flies
to the Southern Darkness.
Xiao Ze.
So early.
Hmm...
I have to start studying.
"Schedule""
Ah!
Hey!
I don't have time for it.
Your charisma is different now, huh?
Yan Ze.
What's up?
Nothing.
Good luck!
Hey!
What takes you so long?
I checked on Yan Ze's progress after class.
That's why
I'm late.
How?
Are you asking too much?
You think everyone can remember everything
just in a glance like you?
No.
Xin Liang
Art has a lot of things to be memorized.
What should we do now?
Huh?
Keep studying hard!
It's nice if I could give her half of my brain.
Xiao Ze.
Dig in first.
Or it will be cold.
Xi Ye.
Huh?
I'm so stupid.
What's wrong?
Any problem?
Ji Xiao checked on
my progress just after class.
I remembered it all before.
But my mental blocked
when he asked.
I can't remember it.
I'm so stupid.
How come?
I thought you had
a good memory before
and made a big progress.
That's right.
I don't know
I can really remember it.
But I forgot all of it after a while.
It's no use.
Forgetting curve.
Memorize it for a few more times.
But there's so much here.
Is it too late for me to study now?
The more anxious I am, the more I can't remember.
Even if I remember it,
I'll forget it soon.
Hey!
I'm pissed off.
You again.
Childish!
Don't bother me.
People ignore friends when they have a lover.
But, you ignore friends
when you're studying.
It's the first test of Senior 3 tomorrow.
It's really important to me.
I know.
Top 50.
You can do it.
What if
I fail?
You're Yan Ze, okay?
You should say,
"I'm sure I can do it".
"He Xin Liang, go to hell"
That's you.
I'm serious.
Okay.
I'm serious.
I've never seen you
do this in these 3 years.
As long as you try hard,
the result doesn't matter at all.
Even if I'm dropped out?
If you're dropped out,
I'll go with you.
As long as you keep the passion for learning,
even we're in a different school,
it will just increase their transition rate.
Don't put too much pressure on yourself.
The life is so long.
This is not the only path in the future.
Stupid.
Until I grew up,
only I understand that
learning
is the easiest thing.
Because this is
the only thing
which only relies on personal effort.
Surely get the return when you give the effort.
