Autumn Cicada.

>> Autumn Cicada. All good nights must come

to an end. Let's meet again next time.

[applause]

Wong Shu Xiao Chan was so damn hot. He

really is a top tier superstar. Too bad

you didn't come see him. Okay. Okay.

Okay. Your Siao Chan is the best in the

world. So, the fan meet is over and I'm

still the one picking you up. I'm in the

underground parking lot. Where are you?

I'm coming.

Then stay right there. I'll come find

you.

Boss, the guy said to stuff this cargo

into the SUV. And he didn't say there'd

be two identical cars. Which one do we

stuff it in? Be professional when you're

on the job. Don't call me boss. Call me

chief. Right. Right, chief. Which one do

we stuff it in? You idiot. See that?

Their car's engine is still running.

They're just waiting for us to stuff the

guy in. Now that's professional. You

still have a lot to learn. Okay, that's

pro. You're the chief for a reason.

It's done. Send the message to the

client. Let's get out of here. Okay.

Done.

You What are you doing? What are

you doing? Stop hitting me, boss. I

learned it from the movies. It's

supposed to look professional.

Professional? My ass. This job pays us

$20,000 each. A phone costs a few

thousand dollar. You know that? Pick it

up right now.

You useless piece of If it weren't for

your sister, I would have beaten you to

a pulp already.

You want you've got some nerve. I come

all this way to pick you up and you went

clubbing instead. Just see if I don't

tell on you to old sia. That'll be the

end of it. Find your own way back later.

I'm out of here.

Holy crap. Ming Ning texted me.

What the hell? And it's professional.

Wu. Check the news online just now. The

top superstar Xiao Cho Chan has been

kidnapped. Yuancho, are you insane? So

Xiao Chan was kidnapped. What does that

have to do with us? I heard that Xiao

Cho Chan's manager has already called

the police. Now the entire city of

Ganling is setting up checkpoints to

search for the kidnapped Xiao Chan. We

can't let the kidnappers take Xiao Chan

out of Ganing. Otherwise, it would be a

huge slap in the face for the people of

Ganing. You want, you're such a jinx.

Right after you said that, I ran into a

checkpoint. Got to go. Talk to you

later.

>> Attorney Mai, we're on official duty.

Please cooperate.

>> No [music] problem. The sooner you

check, the sooner I can go home.

>> Thank you, Attorney Mai.

Xiaolu, are you done checking? You're

taking forever.

>> Lolin, just come and see for yourself.

>> What's so interesting? Don't tell me Ly

could

>> just come over.

>> Ly, come down for a moment.

>> Officers, is there something in my

trunk?

>> Ly, you're a fan, too.

He's the one, the top celebrity. Siao

Chan,

>> lawyer. My You're suspected of unlawful

confinement and kidnapping. Come with

us.

>> I really didn't kidnap him. Listen to

me. Get up and explain this to me. Get

up and help me explain. He really wasn't

kidnapped by me. It wasn't me.

Brother-in-law, this tastes amazing. Eat

up. So delicious.

>> Brother-in-law, go on. We've got the

money now. We've earned it. What do we

do now? Do we keep kidnapping people?

Idiot. When we were broke, we kidnapped

people. But now we've made $40,000,

right? If we keep kidnapping, then what

was the point of earning this money?

Then what should we do? I've already got

it figured out.

First, we use this 40,000 to buy you an

AK.

and get me a rifle. First, we go to the

construction site and get back the wages

they owe us. Then, we make that bastard,

the foreman, give us a raise. What do

you think,

professional

>> Zhao Yi,

thanks for your trouble,

>> Wang Shu, I'm the one who's been a bad

boss. You see, before this, I've only

ever cared about your work.

I know ever since you broke up with

Eugene, you've been single for years.

But I never thought that this would make

you psychologically disturbed.

How could you? How could you think

kidnapping Xiao Chan would make him be

with you?

You don't believe me? I really didn't

kidnap Xiao Chan. And I'm not

psychologically disturbed either. And

what's this crap about a so-called top

celebrity? I've never even heard of him.

>> Attorney May,

>> it's me.

>> You'd better mean that.

>> Of course.

>> Looks like I need to try harder to make

attorney my remember me.

>> Aren't you afraid it really was me who

kidnapped you?

>> I knew it was you, officer. She admitted

it. She's the kidnapper.

>> Are you trying to get yourself killed?

Miss Su, our Chian law firm and Scarlet

Entertainment are strategic partners. I

firmly believe and I guarantee that

attorney may would never do anything

illegal or unethical.

>> Let's wait for the investigation results

first. Before you say that, Mr. Joe,

let's go.

>> This is that pervert's house.

>> I checked. This is the place.

>> Looks pretty fancy.

>> Then why are we wasting time talking?

>> Let's show her what we're made of.

Spray her.

Who are you people?

So, you're the one who kidnapped Sia

Chuch Chan's brother. You perverted

lawyer.

>> Oh no. Oh no. I've run into a crazy fan.

What a coincidence. I'm looking for the

one who kidnapped Siao Chan Gijas the

creepy female lawyer.

>> Then how did you get out of her house?

talk.

>> That's because

I snuck into her place last night and

waited all night, but unfortunately she

never came back.

>> Oh, I see. Here, take this. Let's get

revenge for Gage together. Okay,

revenge. Let's go in. Come on.

>> That won't do.

Breaking and entering is illegal. How

about this?

I'll come alone tonight and trash her

place. [music] As for this whole thing,

I'll take full responsibility.

Sis, you're so nice. Even though you're

a bit old, you're definitely Ga's true

fan.

>> Nice shot.

Has a real dark beauty vibe.

>> It's all over the internet right now.

that a lawyer from our Cheng law firm

kidnapped a top celebrity. And you know

what? Your personal info has been doxed

and you still have the nerve to worry

about photos.

>> This morning, the moment I stepped out,

a bunch of kids were vandalizing my

place. I saw the news on my way here.

>> Wait, are you saying fans retaliated

against you this morning? Are you okay?

>> What could possibly happen to me? Just a

bunch of kids. They can't hurt me.

Now, this whole situation has caused a

huge public backlash online. Here's what

I'm thinking. I'm giving you two months

off. Later, just hand over your current

work to me. Once this blows over, you

can come back.

>> All right. Haven't had a vacation in

half a year anyway.

Boss, is it paid leave?

>> Paid leave? Why don't you just fly to

the moon? If id known I'd lose two

months salary when Siao Chan was in my

car. I should have just groped him with

that face and body. Must have felt

great.

>> May Wong Shu you right now immediately

right this second. Get out of my sight.

Okay.

>> What are you jealous? Come on boss.

Think about it. Back in the day you were

the heartthrob of the law school. Look

at you now.

Marriage really is a fattening pen for

men. If you say one more word, I'll

deduct your bonus from last quarter.

Now get out.

Me jealous of him. Ridiculous.

Honey, who's more handsome? Me or Xia

Chuch Chan?

>> Get lost.

Yua, you're all dressed up. Is there a

pretty nurse in your department you're

dating?

>> Don't talk nonsense. I don't want any

rumors spreading.

>> Don't be shy. Tell me. I'll get out of

your way.

>> Wio, today is our 2000th day

anniversary.

I took the day off just so we could have

a romantic time. This is so sudden.

>> Of course, I booked a restaurant and a

hotel. We're staying out tonight.

>> We're an old married couple now. Still

acting like college kids.

[music]

>> I've had it. I'm going to find out who

this bastard is.

You

who's that? Nothing. Just a lunatic.

Ignore her. Come on.

>> Jayua, open the damn door.

>> Wu, you're here.

It's all because of that day I went to

pick you up. I don't know who put Siao

Chan in my trunk. Now this whole thing

has blown up all over the internet.

Old Joe forced me to take a two-month

leave.

>> Then why aren't you going home?

>> I'd love to go home, but my address got

doxed. A bunch of rabbit fans are

vandalizing my front door.

Old Gia, you're looking pretty sharp

today. Which little nurse from your

department are you dating?

>> You two really are besties from the same

university. You sound exactly the same.

>> So, what are you going to do now? How

about for the next 2 months you just

stay with me? I'm fine with that. But

old Jack, he can stay at the hospital in

the staff dorm they assigned him.

>> You wouldn't do that to me, would you?

>> Yua, you're a grown man. You'll manage.

Be a good boy and go pack your bags.

>> No, you me her.

>> I'm just kidding. Look at him.

I'm planning to stay at my dad's place

for a while, but I can't go home right

now. So, I'm counting on you too to help

me pack my things.

>> No problem. No problem. Let's go right

now. Time can turn oceans into malberry

fields. Time can turn mountains and

rivers into dust and sand.

But time can never erase

the longing for her. [music]

>> So, what happened then? Then the men

just kept waiting. Waiting for the day

she would say yes. Fortunately,

>> that man's weight paid off.

>> I'm home.

>> Mom, I'm home.

[music]

>> Little Chuch Chan is back.

>> Chuch Chan's back. You must be

exhausted. Come, sit down and rest.

Mom, the reason I'm back this time is

just to pack my things. My next project

is filming in Jinling. It'll probably

take about 3 months.

All right, then. I'll go help you pack.

Go ahead,

>> Chuch Chan. Where will you stay in

Ganling? The production booked a hotel.

I'll just stay at the hotel. You'll be

in Ganling for 3 months. Staying in a

hotel the whole time. Won't do. Your

uncle here has a villa in Ganling. When

you're not filming, you can stay there.

>> Here.

>> It's still a home. It'll be much more

comfortable than a hotel. Uncle Mai, if

I remember correctly.

That villa was given to you 10 years ago

by my mom, right? My mom gave it to you

10 years ago, right? That's right. Back

then, you were just a chubby little kid,

always following our Wong Shu around

everywhere.

>> Sister Wang Shu. Wang Shu.

>> Wang Shu, I still want some fried

skewers. Just buy them for me.

>> Eat, eat, eat, eat. All you think about

is eating all day. You'll get fat. Wong

Shu, are you broke? No problem. I'll ask

my mom for it. All right, I'll go buy

them for you now.

I mean, Wongshu is also in Ganling. When

you have time, help me go see Wong Shu.

Speaking of which, you two have not seen

each other for over 10 years, right? If

you saw Wongu now, you definitely

wouldn't recognize her. That crazy girl

has become a top lawyer in no time.

>> Wang Shu is a lawyer now.

>> Yeah, that girl now works at the biggest

law firm in Ganing as a lawyer. I heard

she's quite impressive. Let me show you

what Wongshu looks like now. You

definitely won't recognize her. Let me

show you what Wangu looks like now. You

definitely wouldn't recognize her.

>> Shio Chan.

Hello, Uncle May. Shio Chan, is your

luggage packed? We're running out of

time.

>> Almost done. Yun, is the kids luggage

ready? Don't delay his trip.

>> It's ready. All packed

>> here. Let me get that. Thank you.

>> Well, Mom, Uncle Mai, I'll be heading

out now.

>> Son, when you're out there, you must

take good care of yourself. Remember to

eat on time.

Ching Yao. Archan, please look after him

for us.

>> I will. Don't worry, Auntie.

Chuch Chan, let's go.

>> Okay. Bye, Mom.

>> Go on.

Be safe.

Kids grow up and leave the nest. He'll

be gone for another 3 months.

>> Children have their own paths to follow.

They have their own lives, and we have

ours. Now that the rascal is gone, we

can finally enjoy some quality time

together.

>> Oh, you old fool.

>> Yunman, I know a restaurant with really

good food. Let's go together today.

Hello, sweetie. Calling your dear old

dad. What's up,

>> Dad? I want to go stay at the villa Aunt

Jang gave you for a while. Where did you

put the key? Sweetie, you're willing to

go back and live there. I'm all for it.

The spare key is with the property

management. Just mention Old May to

them.

>> Okay, got it. Bye.

>> Don't hang up, sweetie. It's been so

long. Don't you miss your dear old dad?

>> Is that Wongshu?

>> Sweetie, why do you want to go live

there now? Did you get a boyfriend or

something?

Is something going on with Wongshu?

>> Not really. I just forgot one thing.

[snorts]

>> Shio Chan, you really want to stay here?

The crew arranged a hotel for us. The

conditions are definitely better than

this.

>> I'll just stay here. No matter how nice

the hotel is, it doesn't feel like home.

>> All right, then.

I'll come pick you up on time tomorrow

for the opening ceremony.

>> Okay.

Aunt Jang is truly a hopeless romantic.

such a huge villa.

And she just gave it away back then.

I'm exhausted. [music]

Female kidnapper.

Don't come any closer. I'll call the

police.

>> I'm not a kidnapper. Don't call the

police.

>> [music]

>> What are you doing?

>> Me? What could I possibly do to a big

guy like you?

>> I've already called the police. You need

to leave right now.

>> Look, don't call the police. Give me

your phone. I'm not a kidnapper.

Talking nicely didn't work, huh? You had

to ask for a beating.

You just want my body, don't you?

Fine. Just don't hurt me.

[music]

According

to article 237 of China's criminal law,

forcible indecent assault against

another person is punishable by up to 5

years of fixedterm imprisonment or

criminal detention.

Are you coming or not? I'm getting

pretty cold.

You really want to see me behind bars,

kid?

>> I I don't.

I admit your looks do make me a little

tempted, but I studied law. I know

exactly what the consequences are for

having you.

I'll go back to my room and rest then.

>> Hold it.

What's with that look?

>> I'm not good enough for you. Is that it?

>> No.

>> Do you have any idea how your behavior

makes me look bad? Am I ugly? You won't

even pretend to be interested.

>> You're quite good-looking, but my heart

already belongs to someone else.

The pure and innocent type, huh? Isn't

your entertainment industry supposed to

be a mess?

>> Others are others. I am me.

>> Now you've made me even more interested.

>> What are you going to do?

>> What can I do?

I'm thinking maybe 3 to 5 years behind

bars.

is worth it to have the last pure flower

in the entertainment industry. Have you?

>> No.

>> No.

When a man says no, he means yes.

>> Just kidding.

Relax. I'm not that desperate.

>> You need to leave now. I promise I won't

call the cops.

You don't actually think I'm the woman

who stalked and kidnapped you, do you?

>> Aren't you?

>> Hello. This is my house. Actually, I'm

more curious about why you're in my

house.

>> This is your house.

>> Yeah.

>> My stepdad gave me this key. He told me

I could stay here.

>> Your stepdad wouldn't happen to be Mer

Joe, would he?

>> You know, Uncle Ma.

>> Mherjo. The definition of unreliable.

His life motto is energy is finite but

sugar mommies are infinite. Use all your

energy to latch onto one sugar mommy who

can support you for life.

>> You and uncle Maya are

>> my biological father.

>> Wang Shu. You're Wang Shu.

>> Who are you?

>> It's me. Little worm.

>> Little worm.

Little worm, how many times have I told

you not to play in the mud? Look how

dirty your face is. I've told you a

million times, no playing in the mud.

All you do is eat all day and sleep

after you eat.

Stop eating.

No way.

>> Wang Shu, it's me,

>> little bug.

Wang Shu, don't be like that.

>> I couldn't help it.

>> Over a decade ago, how did you lose

touch with Aunt Jang? I never would have

thought that little chubby kid would

grow into your looks. You've become so

tall and handsome and a big star, too.

>> We didn't lose touch. Uncle Mai came to

our house all the time, and he'd stay

for three or four months at a time.

I'm talking about my junior and senior

years of high school. Such an important

time. That old man kept telling me he

was on business trips, gone for two or

three months at a time.

Turns out he was going to see your mom.

>> Oh, by the way, Wang Shu, my mom and

uncle Mai had their wedding last year.

They got married. At the wedding, I

looked all over for you, but couldn't

find you. Uncle Mai said you were too

busy with work and couldn't make it. My

dad and your mom got married and they

had a banquet.

How come I didn't know?

>> Uncle Mike didn't tell you.

>> Oh, he'll tell me.

But aside from being handsome, my dad is

completely useless.

How could you trust him with your mom?

>> Actually, Uncle Mai is great. Back when

we first moved to the city, my mom's

company was really busy. Uncle Mai was

the one who took care of me. He not only

cooked for me, but also helped me with

my homework.

Stop. My heart hurts.

All right. All right. Old May is such a

standup guy, ignoring his own daughter

to take care of someone else's son.

It's fine. Don't be mad. Don't be mad.

I've known all along. That's just how

lame is. Totally expected.

>> Speaking of which, you're now my brother

from another mother,

>> I guess. So,

>> who are you trying to seduce dressed

like that? Go change your clothes,

>> sis. Wang Shu, you seem to like it. Want

me to let you touch it again?

>> You little brat. How dare you flirt with

me?

>> Oh no, my cool big sister image is

ruined. To think I got flirted with by a

little brat.

And that old geyser may shirt

Yunman. The luckiest thing in my life

was meeting you.

>> La May, tell me we're not young anymore.

How can you still act like a teenager

saying such mushy things?

>> Yunman, who says people our age can't be

romantic? If you ask me, we're even more

qualified to be romantic.

Yunman,

from now on, don't call me La anymore.

Call me

Whose call is it? You should answer it.

Don't let it interrupt your business.

>> Telemarketer Yunman, just call me Sergio

from now on. Okay.

>> Okay,

>> then say it for me.

>> How dare you hang up on me?

You better never pick up my calls again.

Make sure you old fart drop dead. Don't

let me see you.

>> If I see you, I'll make you fly.

>> Let go. No.

>> Give it to me.

Stop it.

Chong, you okay?

If they want your food, just give it to

them. If it's gone, I'll buy you more

later. A wise man knows when to yield.

Got it?

>> No.

>> No one can take my food. But Wang Shu

can

[music]

>> Xiao Chong, how long have you been here?

What did you see?

>> I saw everything.

>> Forgotten what it was like to be bossed

around by your big sister when you were

little? Huh?

Wang Shu, I'm not a kid anymore.

>> All right, then. You've grown up so

handsome. I'm not exactly losing out

here.

>> Wang Shu, what are you doing?

>> You think just because you've played a

tycoon a few times, you are one now

trying to mess with your big sister?

>> Oh. Oh, Wang Shu,

>> you going to try that again?

>> I dare to.

>> That's more like it.

>> Wait, what did you say? I said I dare

to.

>> You little brat rebelling now? Open the

door for your sister.

>> Open it.

>> Wangu, it's so good to see you again,

little worm.

Me, too.

It's so good to see you again.

>> [music]

>> Get some rest.

>> Okay,

>> what brings you here?

>> Chin Fu Guang, you were the one who said

you could get Shia Cho Chan into my bed.

That's why I gave you the male lead in

this hit show. It's been 3 days now. I

haven't even seen a trace of Shia Cho

Chan.

>> Mizu Fuguang, since you two have things

to discuss, I'll get going. You talk,

Ms. Yu Xiaoing handled this whole thing.

Ask him. Chin Fug Wang, you bastard.

Mizu Nan, weren't you on a business trip

in Jinling the day before yesterday? It

just so happened that Shiao Chan was

holding a fan meet there. I had it all

arranged that very night. I was going to

deliver Shih Cho Chan to your room.

Right. You notified me early. I ended up

waiting all night for nothing. I even

got dark circles from staying up and

still know Shia Cho Chan. There was a

little complication. Shia Cho Chan was

taken by someone else.

>> What? By who? Who dares to take someone?

I Yunan have my eye on

>> the police.

>> How did the police get involved?

>> The guys who were supposed to grab Shia

Shucho Chan put him in the wrong car.

They stuffed him into a lawyer's car and

got arrested by the cops. Otherwise, I

would have delivered him. It was all

over the news a couple days ago. The

Cheng Law Firm lawyer kidnapping case.

>> Kidnapping? What kidnapping? I don't

know anything about that.

>> Ms. You

>> let go. Ching Fu Guang. You dug your own

grave. You broke the law. Don't drag me

into this.

>> Mu, if you hadn't hinted back then,

telling me to deliver Shia Chucho Chan

to your bed, I never would have risked

kidnapping someone. Now that things have

gone south, you want to pin the blame on

the two of us in your dreams. That's

right, miss you. We're all in the same

boat now. Don't think you can slip away

alone.

[music]

When did I ever say that? Do you have

proof?

>> You just said it.

>> I said, "Do you have proof?"

>> You?

>> What are you, Chin Fu Guang? I came here

today to tell you.

The male lead for Top Stream has been

given to Scarlet's top star, Shia Cho

Chan.

>> Ms. Youu, didn't we agree that I'd play

the male lead in Top Stream?

>> You believed me. Did we sign a contract?

[music]

Tell me, in what way are you better than

Shia Cho Chan? Looks no star power? No.

Apart from being a slightly better

actor, what do you have over him? When a

production casts actors, shouldn't they

pick the one who fits the role best? The

one with the best acting skills?

>> Chin Fu Guang, are you living in the

last century? This is the age of

capital. For an actor to get roles, it's

about looks. It's about star power.

[music]

Acting skills.

>> I don't believe it. Good actors can't

get ahead. I don't believe capital

controls the entire market.

>> Believe what you want.

>> Fuguang, I believe in you. You'll make

it big one day. After all, you've

started doing some pretty heartless

things to get ahead. Xiaoing, if you

can't speak properly, then shut up.

You mentioned Shia Chu Chan. The police

won't find us, right? Absolutely not.

You sure? Of course.

Fukuang, why are you dressed like this?

Yesterday, director U from the company's

board came to see me.

Did you leave your voice at home?

Yesterday, director Yu from the

company's board came to see me. She told

me if I deliver Shiau Jan to her bed,

she'll give me the lead role in the

company's big annual production, the top

build male lead. You agreed? I agreed.

Are you insane,

Xiaoing? You're my manager.

You know my situation better than

anyone. You're the one who knows it best

among actors my age in the industry. I

wouldn't say my acting is the best, but

I'm easily in the top three.

Now look at me and nobody in the

industry. A de-list celebrity. I really

need this chance.

Fugwang, I know you need an opportunity,

but this is illegal. Let's just pretend

we never met today.

Xiaoing, help me. I'm sorry. I can't

help you. 2 million. I'll give you $2

million. Help me,

Fuguan. I think we can work something

out.

This card has $2 million. Help me take

care of this deal.

I need to think about it.

I think your hand

has already done the thinking for you.

Get it done within a week.

It serves you right for being greedy.

This card has 1 million in it. Can you

get the job done?

>> Leave it to me. Go ask around on the

streets. When brother Dao says he'll do

something, he gets it done.

This card has 500,000. Can you handle

this?

>> Don't worry. As long as the money's

there, I guarantee it'll be taken care

of.

>> Strike it rich. Huh? This is 50,000. Can

you do it,

>> brother? Shaolong. Kidnapping such a big

star for only

50,000. If you won't do it, I'll have to

find someone else.

It's tough to find good work this year.

Fine. 50,000 it is. I'll take the job.

>> Here's 40,000. Can you do it?

>> I can do it. Why wouldn't I? It's just

kidnapping someone. How hard can that

be?

Such a great opportunity. And we messed

it up. When will I ever become the top

star at Scarlet Entertainment? Fuguang,

stop fooling around all day. Stop

focusing on improving your acting. Start

thinking about how to be a little more

heartless. You'll become the top star at

Scarlet Entertainment eventually. What

kind of world is this? An actor

improving their craft is called fooling

around. And shady tactics are the new

required course. What shady tactics? As

long as you get famous and get the

views, that's the right way. But after

all, Shiao Chan can blow up just by

being pretty. We just don't have that

luxury.

Shiao Chong, come eat breakfast.

>> Wang Shu, just let me sleep a little

longer.

>> Xiao Chong, Xiao Chong, wake up. Come

on, we have to go to school. Eat your

breakfast.

>> Wang Shu, just a little longer. Just a

little longer, please.

>> Not even a minute. Get up now and eat

your breakfast.

>> Just like when we were kids. You're a

grown man now.

>> Wang Shu, just let me sleep a little

longer. Okay.

>> Five more minutes. I'll go warm up some

milk for you.

>> Thank you, Wangshu. You too good to me.

You little brat.

Is this what it feels like to have a

crush?

>> Coming.

Chio Chan, I'm here to pick you up.

The female kidnapper. What are you doing

here? What have you done to our Cho

Chan? Listen, let Chio Chan go and we

can work something out. Otherwise, I'm

calling the cops. We have all the

evidence we need. You're not getting

away. Little bug, come on out.

>> Chinga, [bell]

what are you doing here?

Chuch Chan, are you okay? That

kidnapper, she didn't do anything to

you, did she?

>> Little bug, don't forget to eat your

breakfast.

I'm a little tired. I'm going back to

bed.

You have to finish all your breakfast,

especially the egg. You can't just eat

the whites. You have to eat the yolk,

too. [music]

>> I know.

Chio Chan, you and her. What's going on?

>> Chinga Wangu isn't a kidnapper. She's

the older sister who used to live next

door to me.

>> So, she's the one you were always

talking about. Sister Wong Shu.

>> Yeah,

I finally found her.

>> Chio Chan, why is she living with you?

Don't tell me you two are already.

>> No, no, no. I It's Uncle Mai is Wang

Shu's biological father. This house, it

belongs to Uncle Mai. We're both just

staying here for now.

>> Cho Chan, you can't be in a relationship

right now. Otherwise, your fans and your

popularity, you'd lose at least half of

them.

>> Chinga, you know me. I don't really care

about that stuff. Back then, I chose the

arts track because my grades weren't

good. Who knows, maybe I can become a

great lawyer like Wang Shu one day. Even

if you don't care about your followers

and fans, surely you still care about

reaching those endorsement contracts.

>> The money I've earned over the years

should be enough to cover the penalties.

>> No, Chuch Chan, you can't just think

about yourself. Think about how many

people at the company are working

specifically for you. If you quit, what

will they do? What will happen to Fei

Hong Entertainment?

Shio Chan, even if you plan to be with

her, even go public with the

relationship, but you need to find the

right opportunity, right? Besides, you

two probably haven't reached the point

where you need to go public yet, right?

>> All right, Chinga, I'll do as you say.

>> Okay, then go get changed. We still have

to go to the filming ceremony.

>> Chinga, come on in first.

>> Okay.

Still the same as when we were kids.

[clears throat]

>> Hello. Me [music]

Chinga. You know I don't like egg yolks.

You have it for me.

Eat slowly. Don't choke. Still the same

as when you were little. You never liked

the yolk when eating eggs. You just have

to make me watch you, huh?

>> I'm done. Wangu,

>> go wash the bowl.

[music]

>> What's she so smug about? [music]

>> That's just how Wang Shu is. Chinga,

wait for me. I'll go change after I

finish washing the dishes. [music]

[music]

>> Sweetie, long time no see. Did you miss

me, my dear handsome dad?

>> I missed you so much. Oh no, I sense

murderous intent.

>> Prepare to die, old man.

>> Sweetie, I'm I'm your dad after all. I

make a living with this face. Can you

not hit the face?

>> What do you think?

>> Get up.

Come here.

Ow ow [music] ow ow ow.

>> Sweetie, I give up.

>> Give up.

Get up.

>> Chio Chan, you can't stay here anymore.

If the paparazzi catch you and May Wong

Shu, a man and a woman alone, living

under the same roof, your career will be

over.

>> It's fine, Chinga. I'll be careful.

>> It's not about being careful or not. We

need to nip it in the bud. You're moving

out tomorrow.

Chinga, don't say anymore. I am

absolutely not moving out.

>> I'm your biological father, not your

enemy. You hit me so hard. Are you

trying to kill your own dad?

>> Serves you right. Which thing you've

ever done is something a real father

would do. Even a stepfather would have a

guilty conscience. Well,

>> it was all so you could have a good

material life.

>> Couldn't you just make money with your

own two hands? Why do you have to marry

a rich woman?

>> That's because I don't have the skills

for that. But luckily, I have this

handsome face passed down through

generations. It gave me the capital to

marry a rich woman.

>> You're so shameless about it.

>> What else? What law says? I can't marry

a rich woman.

>> Wow, you actually have the nerve to say

that. I'm speechless.

>> I saw on the news you kidnapped Chio

Chan. What was that all about?

Thanks for the belated concern. It's

already been resolved.

>> Since you don't have any more questions,

I'll head back to Ant Yun. Our honeymoon

isn't over yet.

>> Didn't you get married last year?

>> Wrong.

Your aunt Yuning is so wealthy. How can

we be like ordinary people? Others take

a month. We're taking at least 3 years.

>> Dad, when it comes to marrying rich,

you're a professional.

My love for Andy Ming is real. By the

way, is Chuch Chan back living here?

>> He's back. We've already met.

>> Chuch Chan has grown up tall and

handsome. Sweetie, don't you have any

thoughts about him?

>> You're married to Aunt Jan now. So,

Shiao Chong is like my little brother.

What kind of thoughts could I have?

>> That's it. That's an easy problem to

solve.

>> What is it, Dad? Are you going to

divorce Aunt Yun Mang for my happiness?

>> Parent child relationship termination

agreement.

>> Sweetie, for your happiness, your

lifelong happiness, your dad will

painfully sever our father-daughter

bond.

From now on, just call me Uncle May.

>> Is this something a real father would

do?

>> That's a wrap on the opening ceremony.

>> All right, everyone. Let's get to work.

>> Let's get to work, people.

>> Let's get to work.

Shia Cho Chan, the top star at Scarlet

Entertainment. This shouldn't be our

first time meeting, right?

>> Sorry, you are

>> Shio Chan. Let me introduce you. This is

Ms. Yun. She's one of the directors at

our Scarlet Entertainment. She's also

the seventh largest shareholder of

Scarlet Entertainment.

>> Nice to meet you, Ms. You

>> Miss Yu, you're just in time. I was just

about to report to you about Archio

Chon's recent endorsement deals and

commercial performances. Miss Su, the

opening ceremony is keeping me busy

today. Let's talk tomorrow. Miss Yu, but

this is quite urgent. Please hear me

out. Shio Chan, I think the director

wants to talk to you about character

development. Go see the director.

>> Shia Cho Chan, don't you leave.

You did that on purpose, Miss Su.

>> Ms. you. Your preference for taking

advantage of young, handsome actors is

something everyone in the industry knows

about. How could I not be on guard

against you and yet you still dare to

stop me? Why wouldn't I dare, miss you?

I don't care how wild you get in

private. But I'm warning you, you'd

better stay away from Archio. But I'm

warning you, stay away from Archio Chan.

Otherwise, I'll make you regret it. You

little brat. Don't think just because

you're now the agent for Scarlet's top

star. You can talk to me like that. If

I'm not happy, I can replace you

anytime. After all, in the company's

agency department, there are plenty of

people who want to be Shia Cho Chan's

agent.

Ms. Yu, if you can do it, be my guest.

>> Mu,

>> what's the deal with this agent for Shia

Choan? How dare she talk to me like

that? Mizu, you don't know.

>> Know what? Spit it out.

>> Shiao Chan's agent. Suchingo is the

daughter of our company's chairman.

Subai.

>> Sububai's daughter. So that means she's

the heirs to the Sue group worth over a

hundred million.

>> Yes. And her grandmother is an even

bigger deal.

>> Who?

>> The matriarch of the Lin group worth

tens of billions. Susia. She's someone

who with a single stomp can make the

whole city tremble.

>> So that means Suching really is someone

we can't afford to offend.

Wait a minute. You said Suching's

grandmother is the matriarch of the Lin

group. Shouldn't she be surnamed Lynn?

Then why is her surname Sue?

>> That's an old story. Back then the

matriarch married Lini, the president of

the Lin group. They had two sons after

marriage. Since the Sue family had no

male heir, they had the eldest son take

the Lynn surname to inherit the Lin

group. The second son took the Sue

surname and returned to the Sue family

to inherit the Sue group.

>> That's quite the background.

>> If it weren't for Shia Chucho Chan's

good looks, making Such Chinga rush to

be his agent and pulling in a lot of

resources for him. He, Shia Cho Chan,

aside from being good-looking, is

completely useless. Otherwise, he

wouldn't have gotten so many resources

to become Scarlet Entertainment's top

star. We had no idea before. If it

weren't for this time because of the

kidnapping of Shia Cho Chan, Such Chinga

mobilized too many resources. We

wouldn't have noticed. If we had known

back then that Suching Yao had such

powerful backing. Who would dare mess

with Shia Cho Chan? Yeah, after we found

out who Suchinga was, it scared the hell

out of us.

>> The more you guys talk like that, the

more interested I am in Shia Cho Chan.

>> Mizu, you must not. If Suchinga lifts a

finger, the three of us will be sleeping

with the fishes in the Huangpu River.

Don't you think that stealing a man from

the eras of such a powerful conglomerate

would be incredibly satisfying?

>> That's not satisfaction. That's suicide.

Ms. You, your interests are your own

business, we're not joining you, right?

>> Tell me, if Such Chinga finds out that

kidnapping Shia Cho Chan was your doing,

how do you think she'll deal with you?

>> I, Fuguang,

don't be rash. Whether it's Suchinga or

Yunan, we can't afford to offend either

one.

Yunan, what exactly do you want?

>> Didn't you guys say it yourselves? We're

in the same boat now. We should help

each other, shouldn't we?

>> Before Mu, you wanted to cut ties with

us.

>> Never mind that. I'll make arrangements

next. I'll get you the role of the male

antagonist in that top drama. So, you'll

be in the same crew as Shia Cho.

>> What do you want me to do?

>> Simple. Report Shia Cho Chan's

whereabouts to me at all times.

>> That's no problem.

>> There's 2 million in this card. You were

the one who contacted the people to

kidnap Shia Chucho Chan last time,

right? Contact them again.

>> Boss, you. What are you doing?

>> Xiaoing, stop pretending. Everyone at

Scarlet knows you're the greediest one.

Now there's $2 million right in front of

you and you wouldn't take it.

>> Boss, you. I am greedy for money, but I

won't do anything stupid.

>> Xiaoing, you think I can't make you

unwelcome at Scarlet?

>> So, what if I can't survive there? At

worst, I'll turn myself into the police.

That's much better than ending up as

fish food in the Hu River. Floating

light.

>> You're drinking juice, but you of

alcohol. Anyone would think you've been

drinking a lot.

>> A waiter accidentally bumped into me.

Why do you smell like alcohol? How much

did you drink?

What are you trying to do? What could I

possibly do? I'm just helping him back

to his room to rest.

>> Listen, don't think you can do whatever

you want. Just because Choan had a few

drinks, he hasn't had much today.

>> Chinga, thanks for bringing me back. You

should head back and get some rest. Bye.

All right, then. You get some rest, too.

Attorney May, if you do anything, you

shouldn't. I'll call the police right

away. M Sue, I'm more familiar with

legal statutes than you are, right?

>> It better be.

Chochan, you get some rest.

If

it's consensual between two people, the

law can't do anything about it. If

two people are willing, the law can't do

anything.

>> Shameless woman. You really think Chioan

would be interested in you?

>> Wang Shu, why did you have to provoke

her?

>> You a cup. If you fall, you'll slide

farther than anyone, right? After all,

not everyone is as flat as you are. You

You old [music] hag. A cup. No thanks.

You middle-aged woman. You're flat as a

board.

You, I'll show you today what a boxing

pro is. You move. I'll show you today

what an MMA champion is. Bring it on.

Come on.

>> Hey, stop fighting.

>> Shoan, let go of me. I'm going to settle

this with her once and for all.

>> You a cup.

>> Just hearing it tells me you're the male

one.

>> Wang Shu, please say less. You

>> You drink

>> here. Drink some soy milk.

>> Have you never eaten papaya?

>> You old hag. No one wanted you anyway.

[music]

Let her go. A cup.

>> Stop it. Be the bigger person. Don't

stoop to her level. Chinga,

>> your front and back look the same. Do

you even know which side is the front

when you get dressed?

>> All right. All right. Chinga.

Chinga, calm down. Go home and get some

rest tonight. We have work tomorrow.

>> Chio Chan, if you really like living in

a villa, I'll buy you one tomorrow.

We'll move out of here.

>> Okay. Okay. Just calm down first. Go

home and rest. We'll talk tomorrow.

Don't come home like this. Just collapse

on the couch. You of alcohol. Have some

honey water.

>> Am I drunk?

You're wasted. Get up and have some

honey water. It'll help you sober up.

>> Wangu, just let me hold you for a

second. Let me catch my breath.

>> Then how come earlier when you were

hugging your little sweetheart? You

weren't dizzy, but now you are.

>> Wang Shu, you've got it all wrong.

Chinga is just my agent. We're

completely platonic.

>> Don't tell me you're jealous, Wang Shu.

Shiao Chong, you've got some nerve

trying to take advantage of me, huh?

>> I I must be drunk. Wang Shu,

>> are you really drunk or just pretending?

I've never seen anyone who's actually

drunk say they're drunk.

It's so sweet. Wangu,

>> sweeter than me.

>> Go take a shower. You smell like a

brewery.

[music]

>> Wangu, just let me hold you, please.

>> Your change of clothes is already in the

bathroom.

Go take a shower now. After your shower,

I'll let you hold me. [music]

>> Really?

>> I'll let you hold me after I take a

bath.

>> Really?

>> Of course.

>> Then I'm going to take a shower. Am ham.

>> Your mouth tastes like nothing but fruit

juice. And you had the nerve to pretend

to be drunk and take advantage of me.

You're going to get it.

Wangu, I'm done with my shower. Time for

you to keep your promise.

You little brat. You were faking being

drunk, trying to take advantage of me.

And you still expect me to keep my

promise? You wish.

>> How did you know, Wang Shu, that I was

pretending? Wang Shu, I wasn't. I I

really was drunk at the time. still

trying to lie your way out of it. Even

though you rire of alcohol, your mouth

was all fruit juice. You think I'm

stupid?

I should have taken a swig of liquor.

Wang Shu, I should go.

You little

Fine. You got what you wanted.

Happy now? [music]

All set.

Found a little brother who's a bit of a

chubby foodie. Don't be so quick to

throw him away. Keep him for a while.

When he grows up, he'll turn into a

super handsome guy.

>> As long as you're happy, Wang Shu,

>> I remember when you were little. For a

bite to eat, you were even willing to

wear women's clothing.

Tardier, your favorite candid hawthorne.

>> Thank you, sis.

>> Xiao Chong, before you take the candid

hawthornne, can you promise me a few

things? Give me the candied Hawthorne,

and I promise.

Then Xiao Chong, you have to try on a

few girls outfits for me.

>> Okay,

>> that was you, Wang Shu, tricking me into

wearing it. How can that count as

>> So, do you still have that hobby now?

>> No way. I would absolutely never wear

women's clothing.

>> Trying to get one over on me. You're

still wet behind the

>> Okay, coming. Everyone get ready.

>> 3 2

>> 1 action.

Cut, cut, cut. That's a wrap. Lunch is

served. Good work, everyone. Lunch is

served.

Wang Shu, what brings you here?

>> Of course, I came to see you. Have some

water. The food on your set is pretty

good,

>> right?

>> The entertainment industry is too

chaotic. I'm afraid someone might lead

you astray.

[music]

>> Old woman Chioan doesn't need your

concern right now. I'm his agent and

I've got everything under control.

>> Exactly. That's why I'm worried about

agents like you who steal from their own

clients.

Chio Chan, I have an extra serving of

fruit. Can't finish it, so I brought it

for you.

>> Thanks.

>> Try it. It's really sweet.

>> Is it good?

>> Ham,

you try this.

>> H, sweet.

So, this is what you meant by I've got

everything under control.

What are you doing with a? If you don't

understand, then don't shout nonsense.

Shio Chan is currently promoting a CP

with Chu Hai Tang. All of that is

normal. What do you mean? It's fake. Of

course, in this drama, Shio Chan is the

male lead and Chu Hiang is the female

lead. That's just a promotional photo

specifically taken to capture some of

their sweet daily moments.

>> How is this any different from fraud?

>> It's all just hype for traffic.

Otherwise, how do you think all those

CPs that fans ship whenever a new drama

airs come about?

>> They're not all just faking it like

them, are they?

>> I wouldn't say 100%, but at least 90% of

them start that way.

No wonder domestic TV dramas are so

awful these days. Instead of focusing on

proper creative work, they're all about

these shady shortcuts. Capital controls

the market. This approach is the most

cost effective and of course it's also

the easiest way to make money.

Drink some water.

Chioan. Who is she?

Get your hand off.

>> This is my sister. [music]

>> I am Cho Chan's wife. We got married

last year. [music]

In your industry's terms, we're

currently keeping our marriage under

wraps. I'm Cho Chan's wife. We got

married last year. In your industry's

terms, we're keeping our marriage under

wraps.

You, too.

She's Cho Chong's sister. She's just

joking with you. Miss Tu,

>> you're so funny. Sister Sa, my surname

is May.

>> Huh?

What? What are you doing,

old hag? Chuchan is working. Can you

stop causing trouble?

>> Flat as a board. Chuchan is an actor.

You should let him focus on his craft,

not be here getting all cozy with some

other actress.

>> Chuchan needs to maintain his popularity

and buzz. That requires some strategic

publicity. Why are you getting jealous

over nothing?

>> Do you have to resort to these cheap

tricks?

>> May Wong Shu. This is Siao Chan's

career. If you can't handle it, then

you're not right for him?

>> I'm not right for him. So, you're saying

you'd be okay with your husband getting

all loveydvey with another woman on

camera? Even kissing right in front of

you? Old hag.

That's showbiz. You people have no

self-respect.

>> Wangu Hi Tang and I are just colleagues.

>> I know, Shiao Chong. It's just I need

more time to get used to it.

>> Okay,

>> let's get back to work.

>> I need to get back to set.

>> Back to work, everyone. Cho Chan,

>> Wangu, we'll talk more tonight. Okay.

>> Okay.

>> I'm heading out.

>> Wangu, what's wrong?

>> Stop fidgeting.

It's just my period cramps.

>> What? What do we do? I'll call an

ambulance.

>> Don't. I'm not sick. It's not that

serious.

Go to my nightstand in the bedroom. Get

me the ibuprofen.

I just need a painkiller.

>> Okay. Okay.

>> You're such a goof.

Wangu.

Two boxes. They are different. Which

one?

>> The pink one.

>> How many?

>> You're such a silly goose. Just give it

to me. Get me a glass of water.

>> Still hurting.

>> What kind of miracle drug is this? It

works that fast.

>> Wangu, I've never seen you like this

before.

>> It's fine. Every woman goes through this

a few days every month.

Help me back to bed.

Okay,

>> Wangu, let me carry you to your room.

>> Now you're not even calling me sis

anymore, huh?

>> I don't want to call you sis anymore.

>> Suit yourself.

Why are you staring at me like that?

>> Just wanted to look at you, Wangu.

>> You've got some nerve.

Tell me, did you change my pajamas for

me yesterday?

You don't remember?

>> What do I remember?

>> Wu,

could you grab my pajamas for me?

Wang Shu, pajamas are right here. I'm

heading out.

Wangu, how come I never knew when we

were kids that you change clothes in

your sleep?

>> Zip it.

>> Don't you have filming today?

>> I took some time off from the shoot for

the next few days.

I'll be here at home taking care of you.

>> It's just my period. It's not like I'm

sick. I don't need you to take care of

me.

No way. You really scared me last night

>> before I had you. I was just fine,

wasn't I?

>> That was then. From now on, I'll be the

one taking care of you.

>> You're overreacting.

>> Cho Chan, I heard from the director you

took time off. Are you sick,

>> Miss Chinga? I'm not sick. Wangu got her

period. I need to stay home and look

after her. So, I asked the director for

a few days off.

>> Shio Chan, you're the male lead of this

series. If you take time off, the

shooting schedule has to be adjusted,

which will delay the whole crew's

progress. That's not good for your

personal image.

>> Wangu, she can't do without me right

now.

Older women are so dramatic.

>> Chio Chan,

>> you should go to work with Duia. Go on.

I'll have my best friend. You want come

take care of me. She's a doctor. She'll

definitely be better at this than you.

>> But

>> no more butts.

Go to work. Hurry. I'm not that

dramatic.

>> All right, then. Then have your friend

come over soon.

>> No problem.

>> Even though it's an old friend that

visits every month, my body still

doesn't seem to get used to it. But my

body doesn't seem to be adjusting.

That's weird. It wasn't this bad before.

Maybe there's something else wrong.

I'll wait for Wancho to pick me up. I

need to go to the hospital.

I'm here.

Wu, what's wrong?

>> I have cramps.

Help me to the couch to lie down.

[music]

>> Liu Jing.

>> Wangu, I'm back.

>> Weren't you abroad? When did you get

back?

>> I got back yesterday.

>> Stop. Give the water to Wo. Let her hand

it to me.

I'll do it. I'll do it.

[snorts]

Hey, don't be so ungrateful.

If it weren't for the fact that you've

been single for so long, you've gotten

so desperate you'd tie someone up, I

wouldn't have brought him here.

>> If I really wanted to contact him, would

I need your help?

>> All right. You know, you really

shouldn't blame Wo anymore. I sought her

out on purpose. I asked her to bring me

to see you.

>> Back then, you and Old Joe co-founded

Tanching Law Firm together. In the end,

you had a difference in principles and

went your separate ways. Didn't you go

abroad to pursue your dreams? Why come

back now?

Say that again.

>> I said we're breaking up. Since you

refused to go abroad with me and insist

on staying at Tian Law Firm, then we're

through.

>> I had a good job at the court back then

to support your career. I quit my job at

the court right away and followed you

without hesitation to Tanchen Law Firm.

>> In that case, why can't you support me

one more time? I've already bought the

plane tickets. Why won't you come abroad

with me?

>> I don't want to leave my family and

friends back home.

>> So, you can just let me go. Is that it?

>> Then why can't you stay? For my sake,

>> Wongshu.

Sorry,

>> don't go.

>> Wongshu, I'm planning to return to

China.

an internationally renowned lawyer

coming back to China. That's great.

Congratulations.

>> The most important reason I came back is

you,

Wong Shu.

Can we go back to the way things were?

>> Go back to hell.

>> You still enjoy scolding people so much.

>> If you're not convinced, then sue me.

>> I know you hate me, but this time I'm

sincere. I want to salvage the

relationship we had.

>> Then you'd better not think about it.

>> I won't give up.

>> I advise you to give up sooner rather

than later.

Driver, stop the car, turn around, and

go back to the villa.

>> Ching, you

>> look at you all absent- minded. Your

heart has long flown to that older

woman. Even if you go to the set now,

you won't be able to film well. So, I

might as well indulge you.

>> Thank you, Chinga.

>> Such Oh, such,

>> you've actually indulged them. Who's

indulging you?

>> Chinga, what are you saying?

>> It's nothing. Just a mosquito.

Wu, do you want to go to the hospital?

>> Okay.

Who are you?

>> She's my close friend. Wo yu. Cho chia.

[music]

Shut up.

>> Hi Cho Chansa. I'm Wancho Yu. Yes. Wu's

close friend. No. No. No. Her best

friend.

>> Hi.

>> Shut up.

Eugene Lee, an internationally renowned

lawyer. My ex-boyfriend.

>> How rude.

>> Wong Shu, this is

>> Cho Chan Sia, a top tier superstar in

China. My little brother.

>> I'm Wongshus boyfriend. What's

more, Wang Shu and I grew up together

since childhood. Wangu and I have been

dating since college. How come I've

never heard about a childhood sweetheart

boyfriend? We were childhood

sweethearts. Now we're boyfriend and

girlfriend.

Even Wongshu's best friend didn't know.

I'm afraid this boyfriend is

self-proclaimed, isn't he?

>> I've already met Wong Shu's father,

ex-boyfriend.

And I should just take your word for it.

Believe it or not,

>> he really has met my dad.

>> You're not talking about when we were

kids, are you? I'm talking about now.

And I call Wang Shu's father. Dad.

>> Shiao Chong. He's telling the truth.

>> You two are already married.

>> Couldn't help ourselves.

>> What's it to you? I don't believe it.

Believe it or not,

>> if you have to, why don't you two go

outside and fight it out? Go do your

scenes and everyone else get back to

what you were doing. Wo can stay here

and take care of me. Go on. Wang Shu,

>> go shoot your scenes. Okay.

>> Oh, Wang Shu, once you're feeling

better, I'll come see you again.

Wshu. Wow, it's only been a few days and

you've already snagged Xiao Chan. Girl,

you're eating way too well.

Wshu. Wshu.

>> I'm telling you, don't waste your time.

Wangu is never getting back with you.

Don't play dumb. Are you two childhood

sweethearts or something? Even if I was

what you had as a kid, can you even call

that love? I grew up with Wang Shu and I

call her father. Dad. Fake. Keep

pretending. Are you even old enough to

get married? A godfather you had when

you were little. You still call him dad

now. At least I'm better than you. Have

you even met Wongshu's father?

Ex-boyfriend. Wongshu and I were dating

back in college. It's not like we broke

up over nothing.

What's it got to do with you, kid? Well,

you still broke up. Ex-boyfriend. Even

if we broke up, I can win her back, kid.

Dream on. I won't give you any chance.

The chance isn't yours to give. I make

my own chances. Kid ex-boyfriend. Kid.

Ex-boyfriend. You've been a kid from the

very start. What good is being tall?

Kid, ex-boyfriend, kid. Cho Chan, why

are you out here?

>> Just getting some air.

>> Just admit you got kicked out. Getting

some air. My foot. You don't even dare

to admit it.

What a poser driving a Maybach. Do you

even have a driver,

>> kid? Aren't you driving a minivan? Not

just a minivan, you even have a nanny. A

grown baby who can't take care of

himself.

See youa manchild

poser. [music]

>> Who was that?

>> Wangu's ex-boyfriend. Just a scumbag

poser. He's no match for me. A few words

from me and he ran off.

>> Looked like you two were pretty evenly

matched to me.

>> Him? A match for me? No way.

>> So, shall we head to the set now?

Come on.

Girl, because of you, my vacation this

month is ruined. Am I okay? I'm in

surgery. Better let my husband, Laia,

explain it to you. My department is

pretty busy. I'll head back now. Go

ahead.

Take good care of my best friend.

Otherwise, for the rest of this month,

you can forget about sleeping in our

bed.

May Wongshu. Ome Wangu,

you've finally fallen into my hands.

>> Cut the crap. Am I okay?

>> Irregular eating habits caused acute

gastritis combined with your menstrual

cramps. It led to a brief loss of

consciousness. I'll prescribe you some

medicine in a bit. And then after you

finish this four trip, you can go home.

>> Oh, it's nothing serious.

I thought something was really wrong

with me. Good. It's nothing.

>> The good die young. The wicked live a

thousand years.

>> Say that again.

>> Laia, I'll make Wancho divorce you one

of these days. I'm telling you,

>> May Wangu. Oh, May Wongshu, just keep

tormenting me in Wancho. Don't let me

catch you slipping later. I'm going to

have Wancho torment you back.

>> Make your life a living hell. It's fine.

It's fine. I'm a doctor. It's fine.

>> Wangu, how are you? Doctor, what's wrong

with my girlfriend?

>> She's your girlfriend. Doctor, what's

the situation with my girlfriend?

>> She's your girlfriend?

>> Yeah, she is my girlfriend.

>> Sier Wu isn't his girlfriend yet?

>> Hold on, Eugene. When did you get back?

>> Yesterday.

>> So, you're planning to rekindle the old

flame?

>> Rekindle the old flame. And he's worthy.

Whether he's worthy or not isn't up to

you.

He is

>> some so-called top domestic superstar

named Siauch Chan. I just got back. I

don't know him.

>> No wonder he looks so familiar.

My wife is actually a fan of his.

Let's not talk about this anymore. I

heard about your breakup.

As for the current situation, I think

it's also uncertain.

>> That's not necessarily true. You need to

step up.

Oh, right. There's something I need to

tell you. Once the floor drip is done,

remember to have the nurse remove the

needle. Then she can be discharged.

Okay, got it. Lousia,

>> I'll get going then.

>> What are you doing?

This is a battlefield in there. Aren't

you curious if the two of them we'll get

into a fight?

>> Boring.

Birds of a feather flock together. All

right, cut the act. Once you asked me to

tell you guys she's hosting a dinner at

her place tonight, you're all invited.

We'll be there on time.

>> I paid a hefty price for this from a

paparazzo.

Shiao Chan is keeping a mistress. He's

been spotted multiple times entering and

leaving the same villa with a woman.

What do you think of this headline?

That headline is absolutely explosive. I

bet it will stay on the hot search list

for at least a week. A week? Fuguang,

you're seriously underestimating the

young idols competing with Shia Chu Chan

to tear those high-end endorsements off

of Shia Cho Chan. They pay to keep this

trending for a month. Great. Then let's

post it right now. I want to see how

many of his fan girls he'll lose.

Director U, what's the meaning of this?

Mu, what do you mean?

Ms. Yu, you still haven't given up on

sleeping with Xiai Chan.

>> Do you think I'm the kind of person who

gives up that easily?

>> Ms. Yu, it's been so long. Suchingao has

been guarded her like a hawk, there's

just no opening. Exactly. Besides, given

Suchingo's background. If you really

used underhanded means to sleep with

Shiao Chan, the three of us would have

been sleeping with the fishes in the

Hampoo River long ago.

>> Enough. I want these photos. Name your

price.

Miss you, I want an opportunity, a

chance to prove myself.

>> Spell it out.

>> A customwritten script. [music] The male

lead in an S+ level production.

>> Chin Fuguang,

you've got some nerve.

>> If you don't agree,

>> fine, I'll do it.

>> Mu, thank you for this opportunity. I

want to be famous so badly.

>> What about you, Xiaoing?

>> Ms. Yu, you know me. I'm all about the

money. You name the price. As long as

it's right, I don't care.

>> All right. 3 million.

>> Deal.

>> That was quick.

>> Yeah, Mizu. I'm greedy for money, but I

understand the principle of knowing when

to stop. I won't be insatiable.

>> 3 million. Here are all the photos.

Memory card.

Shia Cho Chan. They say you're the

entertainment industries last pure

flower.

I wonder would you sleep with someone to

advance your career?

Let's celebrate our classmate Mi Wong

Shu on her recovery and discharge from

the hospital. Let's all raise a toast.

Thank you everyone.

>> Ex-boyfriend, I don't remember inviting

you. Do I? Do I need your invitation?

Wang Shu, did you invite him?

>> I didn't.

>> Then what are you doing here?

>> Eugene, I invited him. Wo,

>> sorry about this. May Wang Shu. Oh, May

Wongshu, look at this. You kept meddling

between me and Wancho. What goes around

comes around. Huh?

>> Old Sia, are you gloating over here? I

actually am gloating.

>> You and Wano have been best friends for

years. Don't you know what she's like

given such juicy gossip? What do you

think she'd do? Wong Shu, you need to

understand.

>> My curiosity about the tea. Of course, I

understand you, Wo. That's what besties

are for. Does everyone want to hear a

story about how a freshman girl got

scammed in an online romance? Wong Shu,

I promise you this is the last time. I

will never

meddle in your affairs again.

>> I'll believe you one more time.

Wong Shu,

I know my decision to go abroad broke

your heart, but from beginning to end,

my love for you has never changed.

Can you give me another chance? Just one

more chance. A fair chance to compete

with him.

Li Yu Jing, I know why you broke up with

Wang Shu back then. You keep saying you

love Wang Shu, but what you really love

is yourself. You broke up with Wang Shu

because you were faced with a choice

between your career and love. You chose

your career. Now you're back wanting to

get back with Wang Shu. Isn't it just

because you don't have to choose

anymore? If you had to choose again,

you'd still choose your career, wouldn't

you, Liu Jing?

Someone like you has no right to be with

Wang Shu.

Well said, Eugene. You need to let go.

You keep saying you want me Wong Shu to

give you a fair chance to compete with

him, but have you ever considered if

that's fair to Siao Chan?

>> Love has always been a matter of the

heart. It's not something you win

through competition.

What you can gain through competition is

never love.

>> Excuse me, I'm leaving.

Siao Chan, our big star. Such a great

opportunity. Aren't you going to

confess?

Go for it. Go for it.

>> All right. Today I will

>> wait.

>> What's up, Chinga?

I have something to say.

Um, I'd advise you not to say it.

Otherwise, you'll only embarrass

yourself.

>> What do you mean by that, old woman?

>> You know it better than anyone.

You've been by the fire all along. How

could you not feel its warmth?

You just said it yourself. Love isn't

something you compete for. I told you

so. This is so exciting. There's so much

drama. I can't keep up.

>> If you don't want to lose your best

friend tomorrow, then just quietly enjoy

the drama tonight. Stop giving your

so-called opinions.

>> Of course, I know.

>> I just don't want to have any regrets.

Sometimes life needs regrets because

once some things are said, the

relationship can never go back to how it

was.

>> Ching.

Sister Chinga.

[screaming]

>> Thanks, old lady.

You're welcome.

Sister Wang Shu,

ever since I was six back then, the

other kids would call me fat, call me

dirty, call me a glutton. Only you never

looked down on me. And you even bought

me treats.

>> You stayed by my side all the way until

9th grade.

>> For a full 8 years. You were the one who

saved my childhood. They say when you're

young, you shouldn't meet someone too

dazzling. Otherwise, you'll never be

able to live the rest of your life in

peace.

However,

Sister Wang Shu,

you are that person, the one who dazzled

my entire childhood.

Wangu,

I love you.

From now on, I want to stay by your

side. [music] Is that okay?

>> Of course it is, little brother.

>> Chio Chan, I made this pork rib soup for

you myself. Try it while it's hot.

>> No thanks. I've already eaten.

Don't look at me. No one can control him

now.

All right,

Miz 2, we're not filming today's scenes.

How can we film if Siao Chan won't

cooperate?

The pork rib soup from Baong Pavilion,

it's yours. Thank you.

Miss Sue, can I speak with Chio Chan

alone?

>> Don't ask me. You have to ask Chioan.

>> Speak alone.

>> Sure.

>> You better be careful. That woman is no

pushover.

>> It's fine. Let's see what trick she's

trying to pull this time.

>> All right.

I wonder what Mr. U wants to talk to me

about.

>> I heard you've been seeing someone.

>> Where did you hear that, Mr. U?

>> That's not for you to worry about. In

the contract you signed with Crimson,

there should be a clause stating that

during the contract period, you must

remain single.

>> Right.

So, if you breach the contract, how much

would you have to pay?

Oh, I remember now. It should be 200

million. Plus, you've taken on a lot of

high-end brand endorsements with similar

clauses. Altogether, that's about 400

million.

>> Mr. U, what exactly are you getting at?

>> Don't rush me. Let me finish.

>> Got a light.

>> I don't smoke.

I know your mother has a company and is

well off and you yourself over the years

must have earned quite a bit but even

for you coming up with 400 million in

liquid cash wouldn't be easy if your

mother's company runs out of cash flow

it could go bankrupt you know

>> Mr. you. I really hate people who beat

around the bush. Let's just say what we

mean. Okay,

>> fine. Then I'll be direct. I have

concrete evidence of your relationship.

If you don't want to pay 400 million and

bankrupt your mother's company, come to

my room tonight.

I'll give you the photos.

>> Another 400 million. Another company

going bankrupt. So all this time, you

just wanted to sleep with me.

>> So you agree?

>> No, I don't. You're messing with me.

You think I'm lying to you, don't you?

Look.

My room number. You should be able to

find out. I'll be waiting in my room

tonight.

>> Not going.

>> What did you say? Say that again.

>> I said I'm not going. Was I not clear

enough? Or are you deaf? M. You

>> do you know what will happen if these

photos get posted online?

>> I don't care.

>> 400 million in penalty fees. You don't

care about that either.

>> I don't care.

>> Shia Cho Chan, are you out of your mind?

Sleep with me for one night and not only

can you keep being your top tier male

celebrity, you won't have to pay the 400

million penalty. How could you possibly

say no?

>> Why would I say yes?

>> It's just one night. No one will ever

know. And you still won't agree.

>> Others might not know, but I would know.

>> Fine. Shia Cho Chun, I'll give you one

day to think clearly about the

consequences of this. Then come back and

give me your answer.

>> No need to think. I'll tell you right

now. I refuse.

>> Then get ready to be shelved.

>> Wait.

Take your cigarettes with you.

What's wrong?

This is a photo of you and that older

woman.

>> She paid a paparazzo a fortune for it.

>> She's using this to blackmail you?

>> Yeah. She wants me to sleep with her for

one night.

>> You agreed?

>> No way.

>> Good.

You absolutely cannot agree to that.

Listen, this is a matter of principle.

If you give in to her even once, she'll

use the same trick to make you give in

countless times. I know,

>> but what about this photo? How do we

deal with it?

>> The photo.

This matter is already blowing up

online. Even though the company issued a

statement right away. The photos are

just too solid as hard evidence. The

company's statement won't do much.

>> Chinga, the fact that you managed to

hold back the news until now, giving us

time to prepare, was already a huge

effort. She's right, Ching Yao. We're in

the age of social media now. Some news

just can't be suppressed.

>> Compensation, breach of contract,

penalties, all that is manageable.

Reaching the company contract, even

dealing with those high-end luxury

brands. We can negotiate with them. The

biggest headache right now is actually

your fan base. They're making a huge

fuss.

How about this? You arrange a few press

conferences for Chiron. Use them to

clarify things. Just say, "I'm Chuch

Chan's older sister."

>> It won't work. You have no idea how

intense these fans can be. You've

already been doxed. Trying to clarify

now. Would just make it seem like we're

trying to cover something up.

>> If we can't clarify it, then let's not

clarify at all. I want to make my

relationship with Wangu public.

>> No.

>> Why not? I've seen top tier stars who

went public directly. Their fans were

all cheering and supportive. Let's

follow their example. [music]

>> No. Well, think about it. That top tier

star who went public, what tier is he in

the industry now? [music] He's

practically vanished from the industry.

Your biggest source of popularity right

now is those girlfriend fans. If you go

public directly, forget about being top

tier. Staying even as a second tier star

would be hard.

If you live by the hype, you'll die by

the hype. As an actor without solid work

to show, relying only on these flimsy

personas and labels, it's just not

sustainable.

>> All these matters. Let's wait until we

get through this immediate crisis first.

Then you can reflect on it all you want.

>> Fuguang, look at this. The news about

Shiao Chan building a single persona to

scam fans out of money. It's trending at

number one again. He's lost hundreds of

thousands of followers.

Fugwang,

stop buzzing in my ear. I'm getting into

character. Filming doesn't start for

another two months. Isn't it a bit early

to be getting into character now? The

closer I get to the role, the better I

can deliver a perfect performance for

the audience.

I finally got this opportunity. I want

to cherish it. What's the point? It's a

market of capital and traffic now. No

matter how good your acting is, you'll

only be hot for a while. If you don't

have capital backing you, you'll just be

a flash in the pan. You mean like Shir

Cho Chan? He looked like a top tier

superstar, but in the end, he doesn't

have any decent work to show for it. And

now his career just collapsed. If he had

just one representative work, he

wouldn't be in such a passive position.

Now, Fuguang, among young actors today,

how many are like you sticking to the

old traditions every day? Look at these

breakout young stars. Do they have any

acting skills? They are all woodenfaced,

but that doesn't stop them from blowing

up. So, they rise fast and fall fast.

So-called traffic stars. How many

batches have come and gone in recent

years? But those truly good actors, they

might seem lukewarm, but they stand firm

in the industry. They are the

evergreens.

>> That's why you'll never blow up, Fug.

Small fame relies on promotion. Big fame

relies on fate. [music] That's always

been the truth in show. I don't believe

in fate.

>> Then what do you believe in? [music]

>> I believe in myself. Starting from stage

plays, I've come step by step to where I

am today. All by my own ability.

>> Hey, Fuguang, I have some good news for

you.

>> What good news?

>> After my persistent efforts, the company

has finally decided to allocate some of

Shia Choan's resources to you.

>> Thank you for your guidance, Mu.

Starting today, I will hone my acting

skills and work my fingers to the bone

for the company to repay the company.

Fuguang, are you really determined to

repay me?

>> Mizu, just say the word. As long as it's

within my power, I won't refuse.

>> Well, there's an event in Hi-Cen

tomorrow. Come with me.

>> Of course. Oh, of course not.

>> You don't have time to travel with Mizu.

You have a commercial shoot tomorrow.

Oh, right. Mizu, what terrible timing. I

have that shoot tomorrow and can't get

away.

>> As Fuguan's agent, you should manage his

schedule.

>> Mizu, you know his situation best. He's

in no position to rearrange his

schedule.

>> Forget it. Next time.

>> Goodbye. Miss you.

With this thing at Scarlet

Entertainment, things will never get

better.

Scarlet Entertainment has this kind of

thing going on. It's hopeless. Come on.

It's not that serious.

Good thing I was quick on my feet

earlier. Otherwise, tomorrow night you'd

be lying in her bed.

I thought general manager, you just

wanted me to go on a business trip. See,

you don't even believe it yourself. Then

why are you being so nice to me? I don't

have any more money for you.

I just don't want to see this

entertainment industry have no place for

a real actor.

What's wrong? You look so down.

I just don't want your career to take a

nose dive because of me.

I'm not a top tier superstar anymore. Do

you still love me?

>> Of course I love you.

Shiao Chong, I like you not because

you're a celebrity, but for who you are.

>> That's good.

But you were clearly one of the hottest

actors in the country. Now you're stuck

at home because of me. Don't you feel

wronged or resentful?

>> Let me tell you a secret. I actually

kind of like my life now.

>> Really?

>> Am Ham,

>> you're not just saying that to make me

feel better.

>> Before I was always the so-called top

tier superstar. I had endless scripts to

film, work that never stopped, and

schedules I couldn't keep up with.

[music] I couldn't even catch my breath.

People say that traffic stars have no

culture, no acting skills, no insight.

We want to learn too, right? But there's

just no time [music]

>> that busy.

>> The capital puts you out there not to

let you learn, but to make money for

them sometimes. You know, I kind of envy

Uncle Mai.

>> You envy my dad

>> for marrying a rich woman. Uncle Mai had

only one goal in life. To find a rich

woman who'd support him for life. For

over a decade, he never wavered. Step by

step, he achieved his goal. Isn't that

something to envy?

>> My dad, you see, if he had put that kind

of perseverance into anything else,

don't you think he could have succeeded

at anything? But instead, his whole

life, he's been tirelessly looking for

shortcuts. I knew he was unreliable

since I was a kid.

But Uncle Mai succeeded, didn't he? An

unsuccessful Uncle Mai would be a joke,

but a successful Uncle Mai. Those in the

know all respectfully call him Mr. Mai.

I've lost count of how many times at my

mom's company. I've seen young people

asking Uncle Mai for his autograph. At

my mom's company, Uncle Mai is way more

famous than I am.

>> Really?

>> And Uncle Mai often gives lectures to

the single male employees.

A conference room for 200 people is

packed full. Even single guys from other

companies skip work or take leave to

come listen to Uncle Mai's lectures. The

scene is truly spectacular. A room meant

for 200. Somehow squeezes in 500 people.

Even the hallways and aisles are

completely packed.

>> That impressive, huh?

>> As Uncle Mai puts it, those people are

promising youths eager to better

themselves. I heard that privately.

Seats close to Uncle Mai, have been

scalped for $5,000 per seat. Even my

concert tickets don't dare to be that

expensive.

>> These people, what are they after?

>> Some people, after attending Uncle Mai's

class, found a rich woman set for life.

Others got together with their boss at

work, got promotions and raises.

>> Isn't this just a jigalo training

program?

>> Wrong. Someone gave Uncle Mai's class a

much nicer name.

>> What name?

God's gospel.

>> Whatever makes you happy.

So, have you heard my dad's lectures?

>> Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.

>> What did you think?

>> I'd call Uncle Mai a legend. No one

understands women better than Uncle Mai.

And no one understands men better than

him either.

>> You're just blowing smoke. If my dad was

really that amazing, then you should get

him over here to solve our problem.

>> [music]

>> Wang Shu, you just gave me an idea. If

we can't solve the problem, let's get

Uncle Mike to solve it for us. I'll call

him right now.

>> No, no, no. I was just kidding. My dad,

he's a professional at mooching off rich

women. He's no good at anything else.

I'm afraid he'll just make things worse.

>> Wang Shu, you still don't understand

Uncle Mai well enough. When it comes to

any problem involving people, whether

it's men or women, no one can solve it

better than Uncle Mai. I'm calling him

now.

>> Maybe we should just forget it. [music]

Hi,

>> Uncle Mai. I've run into a bit of

trouble and was hoping you could help me

out. Are you free right now?

Okay. Okay. Okay. I'll wait for you.

Wang Shu. Uncle Mai agreed to come help.

Great.

>> Great. Congratulations.

As long as you don't regret it.

As long as Uncle My steps in, we're

definitely going to solve this

perfectly.

>> Shiao Chong, I think you have way too

much of a halo effect around my own dad.

To the point of almost hero worshiping

him.

>> Wang Shu, you still don't understand

Uncle Mai well enough. If you knew Uncle

Mai like I do, you'd admire him just as

much.

>> Shaoong, are you running a fever? He's

my own father. How could I not know him?

>> Then let's wait and see.

First time I've seen you so eager.

>> Isn't it because I want to see Uncle Mai

as soon as possible? You've never cared

that much about me.

Not true.

Wong Shu. Aunt Jang. Hello.

>> Good. Good. Good.

Here, Wong Shu. This is a gift from your

aunt. See if you like it.

>> I can't accept this, Auntie. It's too

valuable.

>> Just take it. This is the Sa family's

heirloom for daughters-in-law. I've worn

it for decades [music] and now it's time

to pass it on to you.

>> Sweetie, one must not refuse the

kindness of elders. Take it. Besides,

we'll all be family soon anyway.

>> Why be so polite, Aunt Jang? Thank you.

Don't mention it.

>> My sweet daughter being so gentle is

really out of character for you, isn't

it?

>> You old geyser.

If you can't fix Yacho Chan's problem,

I'll fix you.

>> Sweetie's got a husband now and forgets

her old men. Don't worry. I'm already on

the plane scrolling through the news and

I've got three plans ready to handle the

Chio Chan. This little thing, how do you

want to handle it, Uncle Mai? I'll

follow your lead. Right now, I have

three plans. You can choose from them.

Not only will they solve your current

problem, but they'll also help your

reputation, take you to the next level.

Thank you, Uncle Mai. Shio Chan, I'm

busy right now doing damage control for

this whole situation. I'm not going to

mess around with you guys. I'm leaving.

>> You're the youngest daughter of the

Sububai family, right?

>> You know me.

>> Your mother is by Ruo from the B family.

>> You knew my mother?

>> That piece of work you call a father. I

know him even better. Back then, if it

weren't for your dad, that shameless

piece of work using the Sue family's

wealth. How could Bruo have ever looked

his way? You your uncle Sergio.

>> That's me.

>> Since it's Uncle Sergio, please go

ahead.

>> A pair of aces. You know my old man.

>> Uncle Shergio was the eternal white

moonlight in my mother's heart. My

father even called him his lifelong

rival, his ultimate rival in love. Back

in the day, my dad only barely won

against Uncle Shergio.

>> Barely won. Fine, let's say he barely

won. Chio Chan, do you remember what I

taught you?

You can't even handle such a small

matter. You've really let me down. I'm

sorry, Uncle M.

>> Old man, if you dare talk trash about

him again, I'll beat you up.

>> Well, can any of you tell me why just a

few photos could cause such a huge wave?

>> It's because most of my fans are young

women. They can't accept me being in a

relationship. Right. Half.

If you build a single persona, you

attract girlfriend fans. If you build a

CP persona, you attract shipper fans. No

matter what kind of fans, they don't

really care about what's real. They only

care about the feeling. the sensory

stimulation like the cool aloof vibe of

a single persona or the sweet and

addictive vibe of a CP persona.

>> Then if they don't care about what's

real, why did this incident cause Chio

Chan to lose so many fans such a huge

blow to his traffic?

>> Let me ask you all a question. What is

the essence of a woman?

>> Gossip and drama.

>> Those are just manifestations. The most

fundamental essence of a woman is

curiosity, just like a cat. Now, back to

Ching Yao's question. Since they don't

care about what's real, why is this

incident so serious? Why such a huge

blow to his traffic?

>> Yeah, why? Just tell us.

>> See, that's the curious nature of women.

Actually, it's simply because the whole

thing wasn't exciting enough. It didn't

give Chiochan's fans anything to be

curious about or look forward to. In the

follow-up,

>> there must be something to peique their

curiosity. Up until now, fans have been

tirelessly trying to dox Wongshu's

identity.

>> That's exactly what I mean. The whole

thing isn't juicy enough. It only leaves

behind a single point of intrigue about

his real identity.

>> But how could paparazzi photos possibly

be exciting?

>> That's where my three plans come in. Who

says paparazzi photos can't be exciting?

My dear daughter Chio Chan, what kind of

story do you guys like? Sweet romance or

angsty drama or emotional connection?

What do you mean? A cold, aloof male

star with a single persona suddenly gets

caught spending the night with a woman.

That's way too bland. But what if we

change the headline? On his way home,

the cold aloof male star encounters the

bankrupt Aerys who bullied him in

college. His archeneemy now homeless.

The cold aloof male star takes his

archeneemy home. Or the neighbor he's

had a crush on for 10 years is actually

getting drunk at a bar. The cold aloof

male star takes her home. Or even love

at first sight at a fan meet. The cold

aloof male star falls for me and

secretly brings me home.

>> With headlines like that, even I'd want

to keep watching. Tell me, if this

incident had a headline like that, would

Chioch's fans be angry and leave first,

or would they be curious about what kind

of interesting story is happening behind

the scenes?

>> There wouldn't even be time for anger.

The first reaction would definitely be

to grab some popcorn and watch the

drama. And with something like this,

casual fans alone could completely

overshadow the original fan base. See,

it's all about changing your perspective

when you face an unsolvable problem.

Don't think about solving the problem.

We can try to solve the person who

created the problem. You two. Which plan

are you going to choose? The bankrupt

Aerys and her rival, the neighbor

getting drunk, or the love at first

sight fan meetup.

>> Honestly, no matter which one, it makes

you want to see how it ends. Uncle

Shergio, which one will help Chioan gain

more fans?

>> Which one works the fastest? Uncle Mai,

which one will let me be with Wang Shu

openly? All your questions. The love at

first sight fan meetup can solve them

all.

>> Then

>> love at first sight fan meetup. Good.

Then let's all get busy.

Let me go over this one more time.

Remember your positions. You need to

leave the center spot for that girl. All

point your phone lights towards her. Got

it.

>> Got it.

>> Do you remember your position and angle

for the secret shot?

>> I remember.

>> It has to be real, but with a touch of

fantasy. We're going to give those fans

a dream that's absurd yet beautiful.

Understand?

>> Understood.

>> Go stand in your position.

>> I'm a little nervous, little worm.

>> Don't worry about it. Just relax. It's

fine.

>> All right, everyone. Places ready.

Action.

>> [music]

>> The real ID. Idol expose. The real idol

expose. She at Cho Chan spends the night

with a fan and it turns out to be a fan

he fell for at first sight. Idol falls

in love with fan. Love at first sight

leads to forever. Once in a lifetime fan

meet and greet with Shiao Chan. Love at

first sight. What is this?

Recent hot search headlines. Seriously,

isn't that a bit too far-fetched? Of

course, it's fake, but they are still

trending like crazy. Those fans who

dropped him are starting to ship them

now. Are these headlines really that

powerful? The headlines are catchy,

sure, but that's not the main thing. The

key is for such an outrageous story,

there are pictures as proof. That's just

insane. Not only is he losing fans now

because of this, a huge wave of new

casual fans are joining in, bringing

another surge of heat. Whoever came up

with this PR move is a real genius. They

didn't just save a top star from a

scandal, they pulled him back up and

made him explode in popularity. Sho Chan

has a mastermind behind him.

>> You've seen the recent trending topics,

right? Got nothing to say.

>> Mu, I think it's time we back off.

There's a mastermind behind this Shia

Cho Chan.

>> No, I'm going to fight Shia Cho Chan to

the end. Otherwise, [music] I can't

swallow this anger.

>> The best move right now is to expose

them. Tell everyone it's fake. It's

staged.

>> Fine. I'll go hire some trolls right

now.

>> But will exposing them really work? Work

my ass. The public doesn't care if it's

real or fake. They only care about what

happens next.

You really think the public is stupid? I

bet. Besides, Shiauch Chan's fans who

believe it's real, 70% of the casual

followers know it's fake. If they

already know it's fake, why are they

pushing the hype? so high, commenting so

enthusiastically.

Don't even talk about them even. I want

to know what happens next because the

story is juicy and dramatic.

And there's a top tier celebrity putting

on a show.

It's like buying a lottery ticket. You

probably don't even believe you'll win,

but you hold on to this what if

mentality. What if you win $10 million?

What if this thing they are talking

about is actually true? Then this has

opened up a whole new lane in PR. The

person behind this is definitely a

master.

>> The buzz has gone up again.

>> Let me see.

>> Shiao Chong, look. So many people are

asking for updates. Your social media

account has millions of followers. All

waiting for the next update.

>> Uncle Mai, isn't this getting too much

attention? After all, it's fake. If

someone exposes us, the consequences

would be even worse, right? Except for

dieh hard fans. No one would believe

it's real. Huh? Then since they know

it's not real, why are they following it

so eagerly? It's in the people's nature

to love a spectacle.

>> Uncle Shergio, what should we do next?

Should we prepare the next step in

advance?

>> Wait,

>> wait. Wait for what?

>> We wait for the trolls who will expose

us, the flood of them to appear.

A flood of trolls will appear accusing

us of faking it.

>> Let's go. Time to get to work.

>> Uncle Shergio, are we still doing the

same thing as last time?

>> No. This time we're only taking one

approach. Real.

>> But this whole incident was something we

planned. It's a fake event.

>> Then we dig out the real parts within it

and throw them to the public.

>> How do we do that?

We release all information about

Wongshu, including the original

kidnapping case. We release it all and

show Wongshu's most authentic side.

What? The fan is actually her, the

female kidnapper. No, she's a true fan

exclusive. The fan meet up falling for

Shia Chuch Chan at first sight. The fans

past and present lives. What's this all

about? A master, huh? This is a real

master. What's wrong? First fake, then

real. 70% fake, 30% real. Which 70% is

fake, and which 30% is real? Muddying

the waters.

What are you doing? This is simply the

god of new media. Isn't that a bit much?

Just relying on these two photos and

headlines, mixing truth and lies. They

managed to turn around a top superstar

about to have his career ruined, and

they've peaked the curiosity of the

entire nation. Don't you think the

mastermind behind this is the god of new

media?

Right now, I'm starting to worry for Mr.

Yu. No matter how Mr. Yu struggles, he's

no match for that person.

Yunan is no match for him. Yunan is just

a tiny and he'll crush after he gets

what he wants. Just you wait. There's

definitely more to come. Tell me, where

did Shiao Chan find such a master? If we

had a master like that, wouldn't I

become a top star?

with your acting skills and talent.

Top tier would be underestimating you if

you could get his help. You'd be at

least an award-winning actor. You and I

think alike. Alike.

>> Your lousy plan didn't work at all. The

trolls we hired ended up being their

best publicity.

>> Ms. Youu, the people backing Shiauch

Chan this time are really something.

>> So tell me, what should I do?

>> Tell me. Maybe we should just back off.

Mizu,

Ms. You,

why are you so angry? And you, Fuguang,

how could you tell Nyanja to back off?

Do you still want the lead role in that

S+ custom drama? Nyangja, I was out of

line.

>> Good that you know it. If I can't handle

Shia Cho, you think I can't handle you

two useless idiots?

>> Yes. Yes, Nam. We two are your most

loyal soldiers. You tell us who to fight

and we'll fight them.

>> Good that you know it. For Shia Cho

Chan, I've sunk millions into this.

[music]

If any of you dare tell me to back off

again, don't blame me for being

ruthless.

>> Understood, [music]

Nyam. Just tell us what do you want us

to do.

>> That's why I'm here to talk to you guys.

>> Nyam, well, there might be a way. It's

just Laosa. Don't say it.

>> Ignore him. Go on. My plan will

definitely work, but the price is too

high.

>> As long as we can take down Shiao Chan,

I'm willing to pay any price.

>> We've already found the mastermind

behind all this, but he seems to really

hate Scarlet Entertainment, right? We

didn't reveal who we are, but the master

really took a liking to us. Said we have

potential, wanted to take us on as

apprentices, but our contracts are with

Scarlet Entertainment.

So, we had no choice. We could only

politely decline his offer.

>> What are you two getting at? Spit it

out.

>> Yanjier, if you can just get our

contracts with Scarlet Entertainment

voided, we can help you find the master

and take over. Then ruin everything the

master built for Shiao Chan, right? We

can find proof that it's all fake. That

the master helped Shiao Chan fabricate

this hype. They might be popular now,

but once we get the evidence, the higher

their popularity, the harder they'll

fall. when it backfires.

>> Really,

>> Laos Yao, I told you not to say

anything. Now it looks like we're trying

to trick Ms. Yu. Mizu, if it's really

that difficult for you, just forget it.

Bossu, if it's too much trouble, forget

it.

>> All right, enough. I'll handle the

contract.

>> Mean, you're really the savior for me

and Fuguang. From now on, I'll be your

loyal servant. You tell me to go east, I

won't dare go west. You tell me to bite

a dog, I won't dare bite a chicken. Same

here.

>> Okay. Okay. I'll go take care of the

contract now. As soon as the contract is

finalized, you two go and find that

master for me. We absolutely cannot let

him keep boosting Shia Cho Chan's

momentum. Understood.

>> Understood. Nyangja, don't worry. We'll

get it done. Same here.

Pig butchering scams really work. No

wonder she can't let it go. The sunk

cost is just too high. Back and forth

over 10 million went down the drain. And

the result, not only did she not get to

sleep with Shia Shu Chan, she ended up

making him famous. If the sunk cost

wasn't so high, our story wouldn't even

fool the kid. We might not have been

able to trick her. We need to hurry up.

Push her to get that contract sorted out

for us. If we wait too long, she'll

catch on.

Relax. Given how she holds a grudge and

seeks revenge overnight, she's more

anxious than we are.

Sure, Gio. Is that cursive?

Looks great. Free and unrestrained.

Unconventional.

Can you not force the compliments?

That's just chicken scratch. My dear

daughter is the bane of my existence.

>> Old May, do you remember back then when

I asked you to sign both kids up for an

extracurricular class? And what did you

do? You mixed up their names. I wanted

Chuchchan to take that martial arts

class to lose some weight. In the end,

Chuch Chan ended up in the singing class

while your Wong Shu went to the martial

arts class.

>> Old man, is that true?

>> Drinking messes things up. Drinking

messes things up. Oh, great. No wonder I

came home crying every day after school

back then. And you'd make me delicious

food every day. That delicious food

ended up being eaten by Chuchchon. And

in the end, Chuchchan just kept getting

fatter and fatter.

>> Time to eat. Time to eat.

>> Chingo. eating.

That's right. I'll fry you an egg.

You're not happy about it, are you?

>> Don't need it, old woman.

[music]

Uncle Shergio, what else do we need to

do after this?

>> Of course, there's one final scene left.

Once this scene is done, Wong Shu and

Chuch Chan will be able to be together

openly and proudly.

>> What kind of scene?

>> The two of them will go public together,

find an opportunity that will allow them

to get maximum exposure.

>> Then we'll hold a press conference.

>> Too formal. That would lose a lot of the

story and legend. What kind of big news

can attract the most paparazzi?

>> A celebrity wedding,

>> a film launch ceremony or a movie

premiere? Exactly. A movie press

conference. If I remember correctly,

Chuch Chan, you have a movie coming out

soon. Right. Right. You'll be on stage,

have the host pull Wongshu out to answer

questions or ask questions, then arrange

for two people to be at the scene and

recognize Wongshu. In this way, it'll

spread like a virus.

>> Okay, I know how to arrange it.

>> And one more thing, Wu, remember to

disguise yourself well. We'll give you a

hidden identity. You're there to support

the movie of the one you love. Got it.

>> Got it.

>> You think Yunan will find out we're

tricking her and not release us from the

contract? No way. Given Yunyan's

intelligence, she probably won't figure

it out that fast. But it's already the

third day today. Isn't this taking too

long?

Let's wait a bit longer. If it still

doesn't work today, then she must have

caught on. If she finds out we're

tricking her, our careers are both

finished. No matter what,

we can only bet on this one shot.

Sisam, we

>> Mr. Chinfug Guang, Mr. Xiaoing, you're

suspected of kidnapping. Come with us.

>> Officer, you've got the wrong people.

Yeah, officer. Officer, we're

law-abiding citizens. Everything you two

did, she's confessed everything.

Listen up you two. Everyone's inside

now. Old lady.

>> No.

>> May Wang Shu's inside too. She's on your

left. The one in white.

>> He's so hot. Chia chin.

>> Looking good.

>> You two need to keep your eyes glued to

May Wong Shu. When the host calls on her

to answer a question, you have to spot

her for me. Got it? So, how was the

movie?

>> Great. And our leading man? Hooked? Too

bad none of you stand a chance?

Because he's already been captured by

one of our fans.

What are you looking for, Chuch Chan?

Another fan to fall in love with at

first sight.

All right, next up, we'll be picking

some audience members to ask our cast

and crew whatever's on their mind.

Personal questions are totally allowed,

by the way. For example, would you fall

for me at first sight? We've talked so

much, discussed so many things. Now,

let's see what our next audience member

will ask the creators what kind of crazy

question they'll have. Let's welcome

seat 4, row 18.

Are you planning to keep your mask on

and not take it off? Oh my, it looks

like she seems like an introvert, very

shy.

>> I want to ask Cho Chan, you love your

female lead very much in the drama. Do

you do the same in real life?

That is a really unexpected question.

So, let's see how Cheron answers.

>> I will love my female lead forever and

always.

>> She

>> She's that fan from the fan meet.

>> The female fan? Yes, it's her. I'm

absolutely sure.

>> Wow. Today at our event, we have an

unexpected discovery. So, may I ask, are

you the fan who fell in love with Cho

Chan at first sight?

>> [music]

[music]

>> Kiss. Kiss

>> kiss.
