(Glory of Special Forces)

(This series is Shanghai's major literary and artistic project)

(Episode 26)

Pour it on your leg like this won't help. Let's go to the hospital.

Leave me alone.

That seems serious.

How about we have a rematch

after your foot recovers?

You won.

Stop showing off.

I'm not showing off.

Will you stop fighting?

If you want to compete,

let's see who performs better academically.

What's wrong with that?

Boys with good grades are the most handsome.

Yan Po Yue,

I dare you to compete with me on grades.

Bring it on.

Next exam,

the one who doesn't come last will be the grandson.

-How could you suggest that? -The loser will call the winner grandpa.

Xia Li,

you're in first place again.

Make way, make way.

Excuse me.

What do you think, grandson?

How can this be?

I answered the questions directly without even reading them first.

How did you manage to get lower score than me?

Sorry,

I drew on the test paper.

My raw score got deducted ten points.

I heard Yan Po Yue draw a portrait of language teacher on the paper.

I should get going first.

I'll leave my cleaning duty to you today,

grandson.

Hold on.

(Announcement of Grades)

-Call me grandpa. -I should call you grandpa?

I was the one who came last in the final exams that semester.

You should call me grandpa.

-Is that what happened? -Yes.

Your teacher was so unlucky

to have students like you.

Ms. Jiao had made a lot of

memorable comments on us.

She said the skin on our face was thicker than the skin on our heels.

Even the awl can't pierce through it.

And that guy,

what that guy said about us,

that guy named...

-Sun Yao Peng. -Yes.

Sun Yao Peng said

we're like urinal pot.

Only the mouth is good.

Only the mouth.

Is that girl named Xia Li

pretty?

She has long hair.

She wears glasses.

Her skin is quite fair. When she smiles, her eyes squint.

Her eyes squint?

-That means she isn't pretty. -No, she's pretty.

What makes you think she's not?

Yan Po Yue didn't say she's pretty.

So, she surely isn't.

He

really liked her back then.

Oh, come on.

Weren't you the one who liked her?

No, I didn't like her.

Why did you fight for her then?

-You did something like that? -You fought for her?

How could you tell them?

-Tell us about it. -Tell us! Tell us! Tell us!

Fine, fine. I'll tell you.

Yes! Tell us!

Actually,

I didn't fight for her.

About that time,

well, here's what happened.

Grandpa, want a rematch on who will come last?

I'm sick of it.

-Let's compete another thing. -What does that mean?

Just because you won once, you don't want to compete anymore.

This is the review focus for each subject this semester.

I wrote them myself.

I'm the class's study committee.

I have responsibility to improve the performance in class.

So, please stop competing already.

Don't worry.

I'll study hard.

At worst,

I'll just call him grandpa for another six months.

Why can't you just compete healthily?

Anyway,

no matter what you want to compete,

I'm all in.

Xia Li, Xia Li.

Can you come and watch me

play basketball after school later?

Xia Li. Xia Li, let's go.

You can bring them with you.

Jie's grades aren't good. He isn't serious with his study.

After discussing with his aunt,

we thought that maybe he should quit school.

What does Xiao Yun Jie think about this?

He...

Well, isn't it obvious?

We just want to hear your opinion.

Are you having financial difficulty?

No.

We just think this is too hard for him.

Getting a job earlier is good for him.

It'll save you from trouble too, right?

I want to study.

You want to study?

And this is how you study?

You came last in your class every year.

You keep causing trouble.

I want to study.

We heard you.

Miss,

it's not that I'm treating him badly.

If he really wanted to study,

he would've performed better.

Since the kid already said so,

just give him another chance.

Xiao Yun Jie,

get good grades in your final exams

and prove it to your uncle.

You see, this is a small town.

You don't want any rumour get out, right?

Let me tell you,

this is the last time I came to school for you.

If you really want to study, I want you to swear to me.

If you cause trouble again,

I will pull you out of school.

I swear.

What are they fussing about this time?

It's about Yue's classmate.

I feel sorry for that kid.

His parents were gone.

He's staying at his relative's house.

Over time, they are bound to have some conflicts.

He went to school to see the kid's teacher today,

saying that he wanted to pull the kid out of school.

After discussing about it,

he decided to give the kid a chance.

His aunt got upset after she heard that.

Saying that Xiao Yun Jie has occupied his son's place,

that's why she can't get pregnant.

It's feudal superstition.

Exactly.

How are you getting along with that kid?

We're good.

Look at them.

They started studying.

This is a surprise.

-They are sitting together. -Since when did they get so close?

The late emperor had yet to complete his life's work when he passed away.

The Empire was divided into three.

Yi Province was in dire straits.

Our very survival was at stake.

Xia Li,

you're late.

I'm sorry, Miss

I woke up late.

You're late for the first time.

Never again.

Sit down.

Let's focus.

Let's carry on from where it left off.

Starting from "However".

However, the ministers in the capital were not disheartened,

and the loyal warriors outside the capital did not fear death.

What took you so long?

-The line was long. -What? Louder.

The line was long.

How come Four-eyes,

who is our top student in class is inarticulate?

Stay away from me. You might get your saliva in my food.

A four-eyes like you has the audacity to like someone.

Chen Hui,

you're going too far.

What did I do?

You're afraid that people will know?

Do you think

that guy would still

talk to you if he finds out about it?

What are you doing, Xiao Yun Jie?

What do you think I'm doing?

Stay there.

Xia Li.

Come here.

Come here.

Don't be afraid.

She's my best friend.

Nonsense!

On Friday,

we have a new classmate.

-His name is... -Chen Hui!

What do you want?

What do I want?

My shoe is dirty.

Wipe it off for me.

Hurry up.

When the soup dries up later, it can't be wiped off.

Hurry up.

You hear me?

Hurry up.

Xiao Yun Jie!

You can't get into another fight!

Come on.

If you cause trouble again,

I will pull you out of school.

Who are you?

Who are you?

Who...

Who are you?

Who are you?

You'd better not let me catch you!

Have you heard?

Chen Hui was beaten up last night.

This is out-of-school assault.

The school will give severe punishment on this.

He's always causing trouble.

Maybe it's someone from outside the school.

Four, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, stop.

One, two, three, four.

Five, six, seven, eight.

Two, two, three, four.

Mr. Cui, please pause this for a moment.

Yan Po Yue,

Xiao Yun Jie,

come with me!

What's going on?

I have no idea.

This is an appalling event.

I hope the perpetrators can identify themselves.

It's not my wish to see sports team being punished collectively.

Miss,

what does this have to do with sports teams?

The perpetrators put trash can on his head before beating him up.

That's good.

That's quite smart.

It's a pity that

you didn't use your cleverness on the right things.

You used it on doing indecent things like this.

No one wants to admit it?

This wrist guard was found on the scene last night.

Only our school's sports team has this.

You all have one.

I'll give you one last chance.

If you step forward now and admit it,

you'll receive a major demerit.

If you wait until we catch you,

you will get expelled.

You can also expose each other.

I know who did it.

Point him out.

It's me.

I did it alone.

That's impossible.

There were clearly two people.

I punched and kicked fast.

One person equals two persons.

You're lying.

You don't believe me?

My punches have rhythm too.

Why don't you put on the trash can and try it again?

-Enough! -Aunt!

He beat me up.

It takes two to tango.

There are so many students here, and he only beat you up.

You two, come with me.

Dismissed.

Let me tell you,

you may have thrown away the diary.

But its content

is still in my mind.

I can write it down again.

Disgusting!

Stop beating him.

Chen Hui is a bully at school.

Yue beat him up because he had it coming.

Beating him is one thing,

but leaving evidence behind and got caught?

Have you learned nothing from the scout training?

Get out of the way.

So how did it go?

I received demerit.

My dad punished me to do trail running.

It's not that big deal.

Why are you trying to achieve by training like this everyday?

I don't have anywhere else to use my strength.

What do you want to be in the future?

I want to join the army.

Join the army?

I'll join too. I'll go wherever you go.

What happened after that?

After that,

I went to the northeast to attend sports school.

And then, we joined the army together.

That's the end?

That's the end.

Did you think this is a TV series? That there will be a next episode?

We are not interested

in the next episode of you two.

We want to know what happened to Xia Li.

Yes, yes. Xia Li.

She went abroad after graduation

and never contacted us again

So which one of you two likes Xia Li?

Don't look at me.

That's Xiao's dream girl.

Who is my dream girl?

I barely noticed her.

He's being shy.

Alright now. Let's call it a day.

Clean up the table.

Get ready to go to bed.

It's too early to go to bed.

There is no lights out sign here.

There is one here.

Rest early.

I didn't expect they have

so many stories in their past.

Yes.

If we hadn't locked them up together,

we'd never know the stories of their past.

Getting to know each other

can improve the relationship between comrades.

But Guo Xiao Xiao is a female soldier.

Is it convenient for her

to live with male soldiers?

This is the fourth day.

No one sees her as a female soldier.

What's wrong?

I can't sleep.

Trumpet Radio Station is now on air.

I'm your broadcaster, Xiao Yun Jie.

Is there anyone who is still awake?

Yes. Let's chat, Xiao.

Are you missing Xia Li?

Yes, Xiao.

Let's talk about Xia Li.

You're no fun.

No.

I have to pee.

We have a female soldier here.

Use civil words.

Oh, right. Sorry about that, Xiao Xiao.

Wait.

What... What is it this time?

I'll go first.

Look at Xiao Xiao.

She's unabashed and cool.

She's more manly than you.

Stop laughing. Let's continue the conversation.

Yes.

Let's continue the story telling.

-Whose turn is it? -Let's continue.

Whose turn is it?

Yue.

Yue.

Wake up, Yue.

What's wrong?

-Let's continue the story telling. -What were you thinking about?

Tell us a little.

It's nothing.

It's just that

Xiao Yun Jie and Yan Po Yue's stories

reminded me of my two friends.

What friends?

-Tell us. -Tell you what?

Tell us more.

But don't just talk about the fights you had,

tell us a love story too.

Yes, yes.

I don't have any love story to tell.

Impossible.

You're not young.

You must've had a girlfriend before.

Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao,

go back to your bed.

Yue is going to tell us his love story.

-Let's clap our hands for it. -Yue, tell us.

You have to tell us.

Tell us a little bit.

If you want to talk about relationship,

I'm not sure if that time counts as a relationship.

When I was little,

I was very naughty.

My two friends and I

grew up in armed police family quarters.

When I was a child, I often took them causing trouble.

Three.

Four.

Five.

Brat.

-Dad. -Are you playing with gun again?

How many times have I told you not to play with gun?

Have you forgotten that you almost blinded someone last time?

Why haven't you learned your lesson?

Where is your mum?

Why hasn't she told you to stop?

Let me take a good look at you.

You haven't been home for a long time.

As soon as you come back, you start lecturing him.

He's already like this now.

If I hadn't lectured him, he would've become worse.

When have you ever had time to teach him?

You see,

I'm home now, aren't I?

I came back just to see you,

and take care of something.

Have you washed you hand?

Did something happen?

Why are you bringing this?

A little assignment.

I have to leave at dawn.

Speaking of which,

I haven't slept all day.

I'm going to take a nap now.

Okay.

Go in and lie down.

By the way,

don't let him play with gun anymore.

What if he really shoots someone?

Don't worry about him.

He'll be fine.

Go lie down.

Yue Kong,

go back to your room and finish your homework.

Let Dad rest a while.

This is a real gun.

This is a Type-92 semi-automatic pistol,

with 5.8mm calibers.

That's so cool.

My dad owns a 9mm one.

Right.

Only regimental level and above are eligible to be equipped with this.

This gun is highly accurate.

It has low recoil and exceptionally fast rate of fire.

Do you want to try it?

Don't be afraid.

Look. This is the safety pin.

It's on.

So, it's safe.

Even if I pull the trigger, it won't shoot.

It's fine, isn't it?

Want to try it?

Pull the trigger.

Okay, now,

I'll be the commander.

Wang Fan He will be the security guard.

Dai Jin, you'll be my medic.

-Okay. -You three will be terrorists.

You are attacking my command headquarters.

-Got it. -Yes.

Li Jie, you're dead.

Wang Fan He, give me the gun.

You're shot.

Watch out, Yue Kong.

Well done, Wang Fan He.

But you're dead.

Wang Fan He, you made a contribution. I'll avenge you.

You've been captured. Surrender.

A commander

will not surrender.

Dai Jin, shoot!

(An old hand grenade was found in a construction site)

(in our city during foundation excavation.)

(According to experts,)

(the grenade dated back to anti-Japanese war period.)

(Despite it has been a long time,)

(it's still dangerous.)

(At the moment, the site has been controlled by the armed police forces.)

(Evacuation is being carried out.)

(Removal operation will take place tomorrow.)

You have gotten

your dad into a huge trouble this time.

He has been summoned by his superior.

I wonder if he's fine.

This is all Wang Fan He's fault.

You've been running around with him all day.

He has gone too far this time.

Mum,

I gave him the gun.

I asked him to pull the trigger.

You're still defending him?

You almost got killed, you know?

Mrs. Yue, we're here to see Yue Kong.

-I hope he didn't get frightened. -Come in.

It's just flesh wound.

He's fine.

It's just that he hurt his right arm.

He can't do his homework now.

We are really sorry, Mrs. Yue.

This is all Wang Fan He's fault.

If you want to beat him or punish him,

I've brought him here to you.

Kneel!

Look what you've done.

Mum, I'm fine.

We'll go to my room.

Be careful.

Is Dai Jin okay?

She was awfully frightened.

I told her not to come see you first.

In case she cries if she sees you.

And we'll get caught.

If the adults find out that

she was the one who shot you,

I think

her mum will probably

lose her nurse job.

Wang Fan He,

that was so smart of you.

Ouch, ouch.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

I didn't think too much at that time.

I just didn't want to see her cry.

Where is the wound?

Let me see it.

There is nothing to see.

It's completely healed.

Yue, so the first time you were heroically wounded,

you were shot by a girl.

And after that, your buddy had to take the blame for her.

Impressive.

At that time,

we didn't have any concept about gender.

We just thought that

this is a matter of man.

We can bleed and sweat,

but we shouldn't get a girl involved.

You made such a huge trouble.

Didn't your father get punished?

Of course he did.

He gave me a good beating after he got home.

Now that I think about it,

that was the first time my father hit me.

You're dead, you punk!

You're dead!

Yue Bai Shan, just take it out on me!

-You just wouldn't listen! -Stop beating the kid.

Stay out of this.

He is injured.

He was shot by someone else.

Why are you punishing him?

Do you know that because of this,

all my hard work over the past decade has been wasted?

Dad,

when will you take me to the shooting range

to use the real Type-95?

You little punk.

You're talking back?

(Ever since then,)

(my dad wouldn't let me touch any gun anymore.)

(But I found ways.)

Where is the grenade?

(I,)

(Wang Fan He,)

(and Dai Jin)

(just grew up together like that.)

(We were known as the Three Musketeers Of The Quarters.)

(We often dressed up in the adults' uniforms)

(and wandered around the barracks.)

(Without realising it,)

(Dai Jin has turned into a beautiful lady.)

(She's still jumping up and down)

(with us like monkeys,)

(but to say that I feel nothing for her,)

(that's impossible.)

We're here.

Behave yourselves.

Quick march!

Halt!

(Restricted Area)

We're here to take guns for our training.

Will this really work?

Maybe we should run.

Don't run.

Keep your head held high.

There isn't any training today.

Why do you need guns?

Squadron leader is worried that we can't pass our performance assessment.

He wants us to practice more.

Where are your IDs?

I mean,

they left it in their dorm.

I'll go with them to get it.

-Stop! -Run!

Stop right there! Stop!

Run!

Hurry!

Wait.

Here's fine.

We're safe.

I say,

Yue Kong,

can we stop doing such dangerous things?

This isn't dangerous.

I'm going to military school.

After I join the army,

I will shoot guns every day.

I won't need to hide anymore.

And nobody can control me.

Looks like

you've made up your mind.

I'm not like you, Yue Kong.

You got good grades.

You can attend any school you want.

I'll work harder.

I'll try to get into military school and get an official post.

Dai Jin,

what major will you study?

How about

we go to the military school together?

I don't want to.

I want to attend art school.

We will get to buy your paintings in the future then.

You will have to make good money.

My paintings are going to be expensive.

We can do it!

We can do it!

We can do it!

(A bike has been following me)

(when I go home after class lately.)

(I'm a little scared,)

(but I don't dare to tell my mum.)

(Can you two come and pick me up after your evening study?)

Dai Jin.

You're Dai Jin, right?

Don't get me wrong.

I just want to make friends with you.

I don't know you.

Why should we be friends?

Well, you know me now.

From now on,

I'll walk you home.

Let go of me!

Let go!

Let go...

Let her go!

Fan He, I'm here!

I'm having a fight with my wife. It's none of your business. Scram!

I'm not your wife.

-Let go! -Get your hands off her!

I've called the cops.

We're classmates.

Even if the cops are here, they can't do anything about this.

I'm not your classmate.

Let go of me!

So many of you bullying a girl like this is uncool.

If word gets out, people will criticize you.

How about this?

I'll fight you one-on-one.

The loser

will scram!

I never fight one-on-one.

Come here.

Come.

Who are you trying to scare with a stupid knife?

Put down the knife,

release the girl,

and we'll all be fine.

What if I don't release her?

If you don't,

we'll all die here.

Did you dig that soil clod from your grandpa's grave?

You think that will scare us?

Whether it's soil clod or not,

we'll find out after I light it up.

Go ahead! I dare you to light it.

Dai Jin.

Dai Jin, Dai Jin.

Run! Run!

Go after them!

I'm not going to beat you today.

From now on,

you will stay home and study.

Don't even think

about joining the army.

Dad.

So you were the one who sabotaged the mine removal mission back then.

You were still little at that time.

Your arm was injured, yet you still managed to dig out the mine.

Let me tell you,

if someone like you joins the army,

you will only get other people killed.

-I... -Yue.

Yue Kong,

with your grades,

you can get in a prestigious university.

Your English is so good.

You can become a diplomat too.

Mum,

you know about my dream.

You are not in position to talk to me about dreams.

You want to talk about dreams?

if someone like you joins the army,

you'll become a typical black sheep, you know?

Yue!

You want to talk about dreams?

You'd better behave yourself first.

If you're outstanding,

no matter where you go, you will always be outstanding.

It doesn't have to be the army.

Everyone's genes are different.

And my genes,

other than a soldier,

I can't be anything else.

Have you tested it?

(Yun Ling Academy Of Fine Arts) (Admission Notice)

Wow.

The 3rd place.

Over 1,000 people applied for art school this year.

And you got the 3rd place.

Impressive, right?

It's just okay.

It's an affiliated art school.

English results of our main campus

are among the top schools in the country.

If you are that good,

try to apply and see if you can get in.

Don't provoke me.

Well,

if you really get in,

I will have to see you every day in university.

It's annoying even thinking about it.

I'll have to think about it.

(After that,)

(Dai Jin went to the art school as she wished.)

(And I got into Yun Ling University as well, and majored in English.)

(We started seeing each other)

(in university.)

(Join The Army, Brother)

(Join The Army)

Having a boyfriend who grew up together is different indeed.

-Go on. -Okay.

-Bye. -Bye.

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

Let's go. Wang is waiting for us.

He finally has some time off.

After getting into university,

Dai Jin has become more and more beautiful.

She pays lots of attention on her appearance now.

-Is it? -She keeps asking me

if her lipstick colour is nice.

For me, the colours are just red, pink or orange,

right?

What red, pink or orange?

Every colour is different, okay?

Stop.

No public display of affection in front of me.

Things are going so great between you two.

When are you getting married?

Getting married?

I've discussed with Mrs. Yue.

Yue Kong is interning in Ministry of Foreign Affairs next year.

And I will stay in school and become a lecturer.

Once we have stable job...

-What? -Have some vegetables.

Enough about us.

How's your life in the army?

What is your usual training?

Cultural courses, tactical theory,

the latest technology,

the latest weapons.

My daily training includes weight-bearing race,

wrestling and shooting.

That doesn't sound special.

Hang on,

have you ever driven infantry fighting vehicle?

Type 92.

This is our most basic training course.

And we can practise shooting. Type 88 rifle, QBZ-95 rifle,

high precision rifle.

We practise with real bullets everyday. It's professional.

You make it sound so good.

-Are you better than special forces? -I'm no match for them.

But I'm much stronger than you now.

I don't believe it.

Let's fight someday.

Sure.

You have a thesis to write.

Don't mind him.

He always wants to compete with me since we were little.

-You think you can beat me? -Why can't I beat you?

Tell me, how can you beat me?

Eat your food. Dai Jin, eat your food.

-Come on, cheers. -He's like a kid, you know.

(Application Form)

He applied to join the army in secret

when he could just study in university.

This kid always does things his own way.

He takes after you.

What does this have anything to do with me?

Dad,

Mum,

don't worry.

Your son will do great in the army.

If I had known this would happen,

I would've let you attend military school.

You can only be a private now.

Yue,

do you know the leader of his detachment?

Fine, fine.

Mum,

don't worry.

Obeying orders is the duty of a soldier.

If you dare to misbehave in the army,

I'm going to teach you a lesson when you come home.

Mum,

why don't you go home first?

Take good care of yourself.

I'm sorry.

I didn't think you'd come.

Don't you think you're being too selfish?

What about our plans?

I'm sorry,

but your plan is not what I want in life.

I've finished university with you.

Can you let me fulfil my dream now?

If I don't join the army,

I'll regret it for the rest of my life.

You've been like this since you were little.

Forget it.

I'll give you another chance.

I'll wait for you to return from the army.

(Just like that,)

(my once interrupted military life restarted.)

(Soaking in sweat,)

(mud, and water every day,)

(I finally felt like I'm alive.)

What's the use of fighting

for these vain things?

You won't be able to get one even if you want to.

Because your dad isn't a military commander.

What are you talking about?

I got this all by myself.

Whatever you say,

Young Master.

Everyone knows the detachment commander is sending you for further study.

Of course the Most Outstanding Soldier award can only be yours.

Yue Kong of 3rd Platoon, 1st Squadron.

Someone is here to see you.
