Our Shiny Days
Episode 13
Another Angle of the World (I)
The company asked you to find Anyu
a comfortable house to live in.
This is what you found.
He's on the rise now
and pursued and flattered by people outside,
so he may be conceited easily.
How luxurious the house is!
Living in such a luxurious house,
how to think calmly?
Jiayi,
I chose all the furniture myself.
Don't blame him.
Besides, you're not here for it today.
Certainly I know why you called me here.
I stayed up late working that night.
There were also problems with this activity.
I'm afraid the photographer is a fool.
He took the photo with evil intentions.
Anyu,
the audience doesn't care that.
Every photo of you
will be spread.
You should know it.
Cut back my working hour
and let me sleep more,
so I will look great from any angle.
Beside the photos in the activity,
the director shooting the present play
asked someone to tell me that
you showed
no feeling of
a teenager in school when acting.
Jiayi,
the teenager in the youth play is 16 years old,
but I am 28 years old now.
Now he finally finds the gap.
How slow he is!
Why did the producers want you to act?
Obviously,
I'm very popular.
That's why they prefer me
that other suitable actors.
Who makes you popular?
My fans.
Why do they like you?
Is it because of your talent?
I don't think so.
Is it because you are interesting?
They don't get a chance to know you.
Then why?
I think
because you're good-looking.
Your fans
are attracted together by your appearance,
but
they won't always pursue you.
They will leave you gradually as you get old
and will finally forget you someday.
This is the relationship between idols and fans.
Anyu,
can you understand it?
I'm not quite with what you said.
And I want to correct you.
There are more and more teen idols.
People even care about which university
they will go to in the future.
Teen idols will still look great
even if they stay up late for a week.
Many competitive idols
are trying to catch up with you.
Jiayi,
I have to make it clear first.
I won't have plastic surgery
or medical cosmetology.
They're like a bottomless pit.
When joining the activity that day,
I saw a senior
was left hideously disfigured by plastic surgeries.
You're recognizable.
I won't ask you to do that.
No need.
But
you should begin to do some basic anti-aging care.
Skin care products
won't work to you at this age.
There are two good ways.
One is to exercise regularly every day.
I am too busy to do that recently.
I see.
If you don't want to look sagging in the camera,
take care with your diet.
Eat or drink
nothing after 6 p.m.
every day to avoid
being bloated.
I'll send you some equipment
to help skin care
and improve your line.
The assistant will check up on you
to exercise 30 minutes a day.
Let's wait and see.
If it doesn't work,
you may need plastic surgeries.
You'en, stop playing.
Well.
You'en,
I think
your performance just now
is perfect in terms of skill,
but its lacks emotion.
Your shoulders and back are very stiff,
which shows that
you're too nervous when playing.
Miss,
can I play
Bach's music with ease?
I'm afraid of making mistakes when playing carefully.
I want you to go beyond the boundaries,
relax
and enjoy the change of music.
You'en, relax
and you may break through.
Emotion but not skills will help, right?
By the way,
several of your classmates studying folk music
will rehearse in the rehearsal hall tonight.
Have a look there when you are free.
Putting aside skills,
they enjoy music very much.
You'en,
are you going back to the dorm? Let's go.
I'll go to the rehearsal hall.
Why does she go there?
There is ghost there.
Does she date anyone?
Well.
Let's go and have a look.
I didn't expect that there is live gossip at night.
Are you
kidding me?
Good scenery.
The mist and the vast reeds.
It's fairyland on earth.
The sea is broad and the sun is rising.
Life in the human world
is happiness and sadness.
Merry laughter and angry shouting
make life complete.
Make life complete.
Thanks.
Thank all of you.
I really enjoy it.
Wonderful!
Artists,
you're accompanists.
You turn it into a song studio here.
Does the dean know that?
If this video is sent to the department,
something very interesting would happen.
Girls,
you misunderstood.
They and I...
Uncle Sun,
if you want to keep your job,
you'd better say nothing now.
You're classmates and friends.
Don't do that.
What are you doing?
Have you got the approval for using the rehearsal hall like this?
You seem to be interested in it.
Do you want to join us?
Chen Jing,
do you know why I hate you?
Because you're offending to the eyes.
You're
an eyesore
on the campus.
Then why do you
bother seeing me
here with them?
You're so free.
Would you like to be our member?
We should mind our own business.
Don't disturb each other in an harmonious society,
OK?
You've disturbed me.
You
doing all this mess
have a bad impact on our school.
We pay tuition
and practice hard every day.
How unfair it is that
we have to study with you!
I'm everywhere in your memory,
because
you have me in your heart.
You are nowhere in my memory,
because I ignore you.
I become selective blindness just for you.
Hurry up. Write it down.
These are lyrics.
Chen Jing, I don' want to talk to you.
Stay away if you want to play together.
Such a group of bizarre people like you
really offend the eyes.
You're not allowed to come to the rehearsal hall.
It's for Western music.
Next time,
we'll send the video to the department.
You're so proud,
as if you will surely win.
Just send the video.
Dreg,
how many verbal warnings have I been given in this term?
Nine.
If you inform against me this time, it will be the tenth one.
Shen Jing. Shen Jing.
Don't be impulsive.
You don't worry about it,
but someone will.
Who scolds me?
Foolish.
How dare you scold my senior?
She didn't scold you.
She even didn't open her mouth.
Beg me.
If you beg me, I won't break it.
Don't pretend to be dumb.
When you lived with us in the same dorm,
you were loath to speak,
so the school doubted that we excluded you.
Now you have new friends,
but you're still abnormal.
Don't pretend to be poor.
Are only you poor in the world?
We bully you?
But why don't we bully others?
Apologize to us.
You should thank us,
because nobody will teach you how to conduct yourself
after you enter the society.
Why do you look at us like this?
The expression in her eyes is creepy and quite disgusting.
Yeah.
Now some teenagers
are really psychologically handicapped,
right?
You're good,
so you must be capable of doing great things in the future.
Well,
make a peace gesture. Face the cell phone.
Your performance was really wonderful
and your image was very vivid just now.
I intend to send this video
to the Oscar organizing committee.
How dare you video it?
Ying,
which fiddlestick is more expensive,
yours or theirs?
Put, put them down.
Do you know how expensive our fiddlesticks are?
I know.
They're more expensive than me,
so I must play with them.
Chen Jing,
don't you feel shameful
to fight with others with musical instruments
as a player?
As a spectator, you should remain neutral.
They did so first.
But the Erhu bow is cheap.
Return them to us now. You can't afford them at all.
Why does Ying need to apologize to you?
Did she do anything wrong?
She should be blamed for appearing here.
Now that she doesn't want to be bullied by her classmates,
she shouldn't come to school,
right?
Similarly,
now that you don't want to have a car accident, you shouldn't go into the street.
If you don't want your things to be stolen at home, you shouldn't make money.
If you don't want to come across a hooligan on the road,
you shouldn't go out in a skirt.
Is this your way of thinking?
You read so many comics,
but why don't you know that
they're not qualified to be heroines
in the comics at all?
We play together, so what?
We come to this rehearsal room, so what?
If Uncle Sun wants to sing songs,
we will accompany him.
If you send this video to the department,
I'll share the video in my cell phone on the Internet.
Let me introduce myself again.
I'm Chen Jing,
nicknamed Shen Jing (Crazy).
As a madman,
I'm afraid of nothing.
Senior, it,
it can't be shared on the Internet.
Senior.
The door is there.
Do you want me to support you there?
Dreg. Dreg, support me.
It takes my so much courage.
Do you intend to thank me verbally?
No words,
no words can express my thanks to your great kindness.
Whose ring
is this?
Put it down.
Don't touch it.
Lord Qianzhi.
Are you Lord Qianzhi?
What's wrong with you?
Please accept my worship.
Lord Qianzhi,
I've admired you for long.
It turns out that you're Lord Qianzhi.
I made comments on your every video.
What comments did you make?
Negative comments of flat chest.
Why don't you kneel down to her?
We have long known it.
Sometimes we even accompanied her.
I also want to join you.
Just let me join you.
Let's adapt the tune we played just now
into an ensemble. Then we can play it together.
Well, do you know
what the tune we played just now is?
This is an ancient tune.
Do you know what an ancient tune is?
How many marks did you get for history in the mid-term exam?
66.
I passed it, and my score is very auspicious.
You don't know what we have been doing at all.
We just play qin.
I can also get good grades in specialized courses.
I can keep pace with you.
Do you know what?
Haze cares Guzheng and ancient tunes a lot.
Where did the musical instrument in her hand come from?
What did it go through?
She wants to know all of these,
so she gets great grades in history
as many students of history.
Yueta and I have always been making efforts
to learn ancient Chinese prose,
because we hope that
we can write excellent words to Haze's tunes some day.
Ying has been doing research on the origins of national instruments.
She nearly knows all the evolution of musical instruments
from the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties to modern times.
We like folk music
and ancient tunes.
I care these things,
but you know nothing,
so I won't allow you to join us.
We're not two of a kind.
Lord Qianzhi,
I know. I know.
I'm a pure huge fan of history.
I'm just ashamed to admit it.
I got 90-odd marks for history.
I've read Romance of the Three Kingdoms four times.
The tune we played just now is "Suika."
Its lyrics have versions of the Three Kingdoms and the Spring and Autumn.
Recently, the version of Time Raiders appears.
I know all of them.
Can I join you now?
You traitor.
You
look too negative.
I always have a question for you.
Li You,
when was your last run?
Last run?
When I had a PE lesson.
But I really couldn't go on running later,
so I went to move mats for my teacher.
Don't you find that sometimes you were out of breath
when beating the drum?
You learn percussion music but don't want to do physical exercise
for adjusting your breath.
Do you really like it?
You've violated the biggest one
among the seven taboos of learning qin.
Pupils contract sharply, and gasp for breath.
Be bad at considering the situation and playful.
Please speak for me.
Give me a chance, and then I'll reward you with a surprise.
It's useless
to ask us for help.
Give me a little spark,
and then I'll reward you with an explosion.
Don't you consider it?
You should go to beg Haze.
This is a thing that she wants to do,
and we're just her helpers.
Haze?
I think she
is not friendly to me.
Don't you feel it?
Once I see her,
I feel nervous and uneasy,
and I feel that
she is
always cold to me.
In short,
I'm afraid of her.
It turns out that you're also afraid of someone.
You and Haze are not
two of a kind at all.
Now that you're willing to help Haze,
just help me, too.
I don't form this band
and you don't join this band
for only accompanying Uncle Sun,
right?
We just want to go further
as far as we can, right?
In fact, we join this band for the figures.
Our intention is very simple.
In other words, our friendship
is established by money.
You're
right.
Just let you off.
If we can do you a favor for other things, we must help you,
but she pays great attention to
the things related to Guzheng and ancient tunes.
She is very stubborn.
Haze is very serious in restoring the ancient tunes.
If you really want to join us,
you must meet her requirements.
We like folk music
and ancient tunes.
I care these things,
but you know nothing,
so I won't allow you to join us.
We're not two of a kind at all.
Just forget it.
I have no vocation for learning.
Once I study hard, I must suffer from an irregular heartbeat.
The fortune teller told me these words in my childhood.
It seems that I can pick a star as soon as I stretch out my hand.
If so, just pick one.
But if I tell others that
I want to stretch out my hand to pick a star,
others must laugh at me.
Forget it.
Even if I can't pick the star,
I'll also try to do it.
Maybe it'll be very laborious.
It doesn't matter,
because we have enough time.
In order to pick the star,
we will absolutely force ourselves to jump as high as we can.
When we fall down,
it'll be surely very painful.
But we're still young.
We're energetic.
If we fall down, after clearing the dust,
we can stand up quickly.
It must be very interesting
to pick the star.
It must be very interesting!
It was a summer vacation in my sophomore year.
One night,
I walked alone on the way home.
Not long ago,
a traffic accident just happened on this road.
Chen Jing!
The ghost story is not horrible,
but you startle me. Do you know?
Are you so scared that you wet your pants?
Are you? Are you?
Shen Jing,
I'm about to take exercise,
and I'll be high-spirited and vigorous.
Dreg,
I'll pass
and get 90 marks
in this history exam.
Come on.
It's not time to do it.
Is this
useful?
Anyu, I've asked about it.
Many actors have one in their houses.
Recently, you're too busy to take exercise.
You just need to spend 15 minutes every day.
It's very useful.
Is it safe?
Yes,
it's very safe. Don't worry.
Anyu,
I'll press it.
Are you ready?
Come on. Come on.
I... Well,
you should remind me.
I, I forget it.
Will it be useful
to stand upside down like this?
Anyu,
handstand is very good for your body.
Listen.
Handstand can improve our intelligence
and reaction ability.
Do I lack these?
Blood backflow
can delay the ptosis of facial muscle,
breast muscle
and gluteal muscle.
In a word, Anyu,
we're fighting against the earth gravity.
Look at the world from another angle from today on.
It, it makes sense.
Well,
just start this now.
Anyway, I've stood upside down here.
OK, Anyu.
It should have a better effect in this way.
But I tell you first that
this apparatus will make you feel a little miserable.
Don't be hesitant.
As a beauty apparatus, it won't hurt me badly.
I...
What's this?
What's this? Why did it slap my face?
Others call it slapping machine.
It is said that your face seems to be slapped
when it's in use.
Anyu, if you can't bear such pain,
we can stop using it.
I'm
just startled.
Go on.
Anyu, why are your eyes full of tears?
Earning some money is harder than enjoying shit.
One, two. One, two.
I seemed to watch
an animal migration of East African savannah.
A group of lions ran very fast
and stepped on a land tortoise and then passed.
We, we just haven't met
for a short time.
How did you
have a tattoo on your face?
Dreg,
it's good to be high-spirited and vigorous,
but you can't run in excess.
Otherwise, you may
suddenly die from exercise.
How,
how is your reading?
Let's start.
Wait a minute.
I must learn in a safe environment.
Let's start.
Let's start from this one.
How about this?
Let's start from this simple one.
Why, why is your blood pressure so high?
Reading is like an extreme sport for me.
Believe me.
Haze,
in order to join you,
Dreg and I
have started to change ourselves strictly today.
However,
we can only make progress
in reading and charisma cultivation step by step,
but we're
very firm.
Well, can you allow us to play with you first?
After all, we can't waste our time.
I can
approve of it.
Let's play a game that we often played
to check whether you have a tacit understanding with us or not.
OK.
I'm so easy-going.
From infants to the old
are all my good friends.
If you are capable,
you can play
this game with us.
Come on.
It's very simple.
Read poems and play qin.
Read poems about your musical instruments
and play the meaning of the poems.
We call it sentiment of qin.
Well,
let's begin.
He has played heptachord for several years.
His fingers are quite swift when he plays it.
It sounds like the quiet voice from the spring under rocks
and the fine rhyme on frost branches of pines.
"Listen to Scholar Duan Playing Qin"
by Fang Gan in the late Tang Dynasty.
The beauty is playing banjo for me.
Everything becomes quiet and my heart is peaceful.
The ancient sword and the chime are first played together.
They make a long and exciting melody.
"Banjo Song" by Wei Yingwu.
No one knows the ancient song.
The audience is surprised when first hearing it.
It sounds like that pearls fall into a plate
and jade pendants are shaking.
The temperament changes with the change of time.
It can't be the sound of the past.
"Listen to Ruan When Drinking with Linghu Pushe"
by Bai Juyi.
In front of my bed the moonlight is very bright.
I think...
Chen Jing,
let's
practice more.
Please give us more time.
Shen Jing,
do you have confidence?
If you want to catch up with them,
you have to work hard.
Do you have confidence in improving your temperament?
Dreg,
can you be a star fetcher?
Shen Jing,
I can just fetch things that
are sold online.
They were really amazing just now.
Let's work hard
and try to fetch stars.
Anyway, we won't be killed when falling down.
We will die
if we climb high,
but I know what you mean.
Let's continue tomorrow morning.
To be continued.
Shen Jing. Shen Jing.
Lesson 6.
Regime Separation of Spring and Autumn and Warring States.
The most striking impression
of the historical materials
of the Warring States period is the increasing wars.
So at first glance,
the statistical materials
compiled by Xu Zhuoyun...
I think he isn't good-looking now. Do you agree?
He needs image management.
He's become cheesy after making a girlfriend.
Fans make him popular
while his girlfriend ruins him.
Bro,
are you sure the handstand instrument is safe?
I want to do some exercise on my own.
Anyway, I just need to control it with the remoter.
Anyu, there was no signal
in the elevator just now.
Listen,
don't practice with it on your own.
The instrument itself
has no problem.
But in case of power failure,
it'll be troublesome.
You need someone to restart it for you.
Where are you now?
I'm at home.
The crew doesn't work late at night today,
so I rush back to feed my cat.
It even can't recognize me.
By the way,
don't go to the Fourth Ring Road if you want to go out tonight.
There is a traffic jam.
Cars can't move.
It took me two hours from your home to my home.
Anyu, do you have anything else?
No.
Then I'll feed the cat.
Wait.
I wonder
how long I should stand upside down.
Well,
it depends.
As you just begin practicing, at most 3 to 5 minutes.
It may cause a cerebral haemorrhage if you practice longer.
OK. Bye.
What's up?
Are you at home?
Tell me what the matter is.
Then I'll tell you if I'm at home.
If you're at home,
do me a favor.
What?
Come to my house.
Why?
Come here first.
No.
It's a matter of life and death, Miss Chen.
If I die,
my brother will depend on you all his life.
It's a combination lock.
I'll tell you the combination.
You ask me here,
but you even don't bother opening the door for me.
I can't.
What is it?
Is there anyone near you?
Should I avoid it?
Then I'll go.
No.
Open the cover of the lock first.
Your lock is as safe as
that of Sotheby's storehouses.
After all, I am a star.
Tell me the combination.
First enter English letters.
Capital letters of my name.
F, A, Y.
And then?
Slow down.
I can't here it clearly.
5, 2, 0.
The combination of your lock
means I love you, Fay.
Well,
it's easy to remember.
I can understand it.
After all, you're a star.
