[Episode 31]

- What's wrong? - What's wrong with you?

What's wrong with you? Are you okay?

Friendly reminder! Don't eat any food that comes from Fang Xiaowo.

It's really dangerous.

I'm sorry, Daria.

I'm fine. My stomach hasn't been that great to start with.

I used to have no problems with this bread.

Daria, thank you.

You finished the song for me even with your situation.

It's nothing. Don't be so courteous!

Oh right! Fang Xiaowo. Come out and let's chat.

Let's go to get something. We're going out.

Are you satisfied?

That's good then. I know.

You woke up?

- You're back. - Why are you sleeping here?

I accidentally fell asleep when I was practicing the piano.

Oh, right! Let me tell you some good news.

Ji Mo succeeded in being hired for the Lumalet Orchestra.

He's now First Chair oboe.

Really?

It will be my turn soon then.

Your turn for what?

My turn to hug you.

Hugging you like this is great.

All my energy is gone but I'm fully recharged now.

Is that so? If you have energy when you hug me then you don't need to eat.

- Are you hungry? Do you want to eat? - No, I'm not eating.

I'm just going to hug you like this and go nowhere.

Okay. I obey.

Are you really not going in to sleep?

I'm not going to sleep.

Just like this!

What are you doing?

I want to scare you but I can't every time. You always figure it out.

It's not every time. It's just this time that you didn't scare me.

Li Zhenyan, I passed the advanced studies exam and my score was really high.

- Really? - They said I was flawless.

The music was very pleasing, and things like that.

So amazing! It's all A. Congrats!

Li Zhenyan, it's a good thing that there's you.

I'm able to play the piano so happily. I really like you.

What are you doing? We're on the streets. Let's go!

Let's go!

[Glory] [Dramatic Presentation of the Napoleon Epic]

The cellist part, listen to the violist part. They are the leading.

And, the direction and motion of your performance's index are incorrect.

Because from the very beginning to the fifth part,

from continuing crescendo to 2 forte,

the next 3 bars decrescendo. Okay?

And, the fifth, sixth, and the seventh bars should be diminuendo with legato.

And the first beat should be the strongest, should be like this.

Okay. The first beats of the eighth part are the end of the phrase.

Pay attention to the grammar, especially the third beat is the beginning of the next phrase.

But regard it as the end of the phrase, okay?

Maestro, I know we make a lot of errors and it's necessary to correct them. (French)

But if we continue at this rhythm, we will be very late. (French)

It's true that we don't have enough time. (French)

It's true that these are problems that we need to fix. (French)

Continue.

Sure! Continue.

Relax more!

It's gone again. Relax!

Continue!

You forgot it again. Relax.

Remember this feeling.

It's right this time.

Not bad!

Seeing how you weren't bad today,

I'll give you a reward.

I used to not eat often when I sang before

and with my voice right now, I can't eat it, right?

One-track mind! If you eat a candy, your mood will improve.

If your mood is good, then your health will be good and if your health is good, then your singing will be good.

This is the first time I've heard such twisted reasoning where candy is concerned.

Maybe you should give twisted reasoning a try, shouldn't you?

- Really? - Yes, of course!

Isn't it sweet?

I think you did very well today

so your reward should be increased.

♪ I want to tell you something ♪

♪ The little things in life ♪

♪ It may not be important ♪

Caiwei, are you fine?

I haven't contacted you in a while.

I heard that the reason why you dropped out of school was because of your voice.

I'm very worried.

Can you reply me when you see this?

♪ Oh, the night during summer time is so beautiful ♪

♪ Oh, the fireflies are flying back and forth ♪

♪ Oh, the moonlight resembles your eyes ♪

♪ Let me be fascinated ♪

- Let's go. - Why did you suddenly think of inviting me out for a meal today?

Shasha, I indeed experienced a lot during this time.

It's time to make a decision.

There's not enough time.

Let's go!

- Thanks. - Thank you.

I'm very happy today.

This is the first time you took the initiative to treat me to a meal and it's even on my birthday.

Today is your birthday?

That's right! However, since you took the initiative

to treat me to a meal, it is the best birthday gift that I've received.

Thank you.

You said since young, you have hoped that someone would keep you company to celebrate your birthday

but this wish has never came true.

I just want to erase all those bad memories.

This way, all your birthdays will have my presence.

Can I give you something special?

Is it for me? Oh God, no way.

Babe, would you marry me

to be my wife?

Thanks, I do.

Sweetheart, you're so good! You're so nice to me.

Shasha,

I actually invited you out today to tell you something.

Tell me!

I really thank you for giving so much to me

but I'm really not in a mood to date right now.

My whole mind is focused on how to make the Butterfly Orchestra stronger and better.

I don't want to delay you.

- I also don't want— - Enough! Stop talking.

It's my birthday today.

Do you have to say those words today?

I really didn't know that today was your birthday

but the words I said just then are real.

I really don't want to delay you.

Tian Yisong, I said before

to not treat me like a burden.

That's right! I have an expectation from you but that's my own problem.

It has nothing to do with you.

If one day, you can forget her

and think of me, then it's enough. Really!

Congratulations, you two!

Excuse me, Ji Mo. Can you lend me a sharp reed?

Okay but you should remember it next time.

Yeah. Perfect! Thank you.

You are welcome.

There's an intersection between the practice and their work,

so a few of them said no matter what, they will work today

or else they will be fired and have no way of living.

I have another small request.

After rehearsal, could you do me a favor and pick up my daughter.

I didn't think we would finish so late. Please!

Okay.

Is this yummy?

Take it easy!

So Lisa, are your parents busy at work?

No, my dad is very busy

but my mom, she... she already left us.

My dad is a musician. In fact, a very good musician.

So is he like him?

Are they both members of the orchestra?

You must work very hard, right?

Why?

The new conductor is really mean.

Every day, just nag, nag, nag, and doesn't give anyone a rest.

My dad says he's just like a supervillain.

Mr. Li Zhenyan, You should be nicer to Lisa.

Or else, in the eyes of your musicians... their impression of you will get even uglier.

No, listen to me. What else could I do?

Just tell me! I think I'm already kind enough. Also...

If they can't reach my standards, I can't let them be and not care about them.

That's right, Mr. Li Zhenyan! You have no problems.

But from my experience of collaborating with you, your attitude when you practice,

actually is quite disgusting.

But I quite understand Li Zhenyan.

Rather than having good relations within that time, it's better to do what a conductor should do.

So Lisa, do you want to tell us more about your dad?

My dad, no matter how late he has to work.

When he comes home, he will always practice and never takes a break.

My dad said even if the conductor is really annoying, what he says is right.

I should always practice to be perfect for the performance.

You guys are professionals, right?

Yeah, we try to be!

Try the chicken!

I made it. It's really good.

Master Wo Gerui, Hello! I'm Tian Yisong, the conductor for the Butterfly Orchestra.

I visited you a few times, but you weren't here.

I finally got a chance to meet you.

Is there something you need from me?

I want to invite you to collaborate with the Butterfly Orchestra.

To open the season, you could play Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1.

However, I retired a long time ago.

I did collaborate a few times with Lumalet Orchestra

but with Butterfly Orchestra, I...

Teacher, you must trust me

and trust the Butterfly Orchestra.

The Butterfly Orchestra definitely isn't worse than Lumalet Orchestra.

Me, neither.

Actually, I really envied Li Zhenyan

and even a bit jealous

because I don't have a dad who's a musician like you.

I have had to rely on myself and not give in to

the despair of my own hopes in order to reach here.

Only in this way, can I be sitting with you in front of me.

My orchestra isn't worse than Lumalet Orchestra.

But you should know my relationship with Li Zhenyan,

and he's the conductor of the Lumalet Orchestra right now.

I know! No matter if you believe it or not,

this invitation comes straight from the music itself.

It has nothing to do with Li Zhenyan.

I'm a little ashamed to say that I learned this principle from Master Fei.

I believe in you.

I saw the collaboration on the Chopin Piano Concerto No. 1 you had with Master Fei, twelve years ago.

There are some sounds in this world that only appear once and then become eternal.

This is my feeling,

so I want to invite you to collaborate

in creating another classic and eternal sound.

I have to admit that your words made me feel touched.

So are you promising me?

You see! The problem is the Butterfly Orchestra is so much better because they have more money.

They have the money and that's why everyone is going there.

If you want to go too, there's nothing we can say.

I don't know that. The Butterfly Orchestra,

- maybe— - We don't need your participation!

Conductor Li, calm down! Please control your emotions.

- Sheri. - You should address me, Professor Rome.

I'm serious.

I promise that we can find a better pianist.

Please go now.

The Lumalet Orchestra doesn't need you.

Sorry guys!

I want to talk to Conductor Li Zhenyan alone.

Thank you.

I saw the video of your conduction in the competition.

Even though you got the championship, compared to Tian Yisong who got the second place,

his strength and steadiness as a conductor

aren't better or worse than yours.

In your current circumstances, you don't have the right to be so complacent and arrogant—

I know what I should do.

Even if there is a river to cross, I don't need your help to do it.

I don't need you for Lumalet Orchestra, either.

I know you're having a headache because of Lumalet Orchestra.

Any conductor will have problems with this orchestra.

You're also this young.

- If you need anything— - I don't need anything.

I'm also no longer the person from the past.

I also won't live under your control.

I'm helping you, son.

Don't blame, Fang Xiaowo!

She didn't know that I was Li Yazhe.

As long as you don't appear, then we will be all good.

How could you talk to your dad like that?

He... If he really went to Butterfly Orchestra, what would we do?

We don't need him.

Because you can find someone who's better than him?

There's nothing you should be worried about.

Thank you. (French)

You're still using earphones during this time.

Do you know how anxious Elise is?

You don't want your ears anymore, do you?

All of you are wrong! If I don't use earphones right now, then when will I use them?

Will I use them when I'm completely deaf?

Don't be so pessimistic, old friend.

Elise said if you still don't pay attention to your ears,

it will affect you from hearing.

Now the doctor said, it's just temporary hearing loss.

It's not going to be a problem in the upcoming future.

I haven't listened to music like this for so long.

This is the piece I conducted at the Berlin Philharmonic.

It's still not perfect enough.

Not so!

I think you conducted it well and your results

are as tall as this Eiffel Tower.

What are you worried about?

Then...

Isn't it?

It's too precise.

There's no way to reflect Mahler's fear and bewilderment towards death.

If you really performed it like that

then it's not like your attitude at all.

To be honest, you're already like this but you don't seem to be scared at all.

I'm scared. How would I not be?

What's the point of being scared?

I can't just jump into the Seine River, right?

- Jump right in. - I'm jumping in then! I'm really going to.

- Go ahead! - I won't jump. It's so cold.

I will jump in the summer.

Now, watching the sunrise every day,

and listening to Mahler and Beethoven, it feels great.

Tell the truth! Are you really not scared?

Humans are interesting animals.

We always think we have a lot of time.

We can perform a lot of songs, meet a lot of people,

do a lot of things and have a lot of opportunities

but at the end...

You just have problems with hearing

and you're not going to die.

A conductor that has no ability to hear

is like a pianist who has no hands.

- There's no difference. - Fei Sixing!

Enough! I'm just saying.

Actually, when it had just started, I was worried about my personal gains and losses, but it's much better now.

Let me tell you! I often listen to rock and roll.

Rock—

Rock and roll!

- So crazy. - Stop talking about me.

How is it going with your precious son?

Do you want me to arrange a meet up for you guys?

Over ten years.

A feeling over ten years can't be solved with just a meal.

I think I should just face it myself.

Your orchestra will be over there.

This is the place where the wedding will be held.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

It's like that, our Director Mo

really hate ruckus and noise,

so inviting your orchestra over to perform

more elegant and high-end music fits Mr. Mo's personality better.

Thank you! We are students who graduated in music.

- We're the best at performing high-end music. - Good!

JUst like this, there are some songs here.

Pick some!

The part that we just played needs a crescendo, right?

Let the bow go upwards here and not downwards.

That... Thank you for practicing today,

and I have something to announce.

I received another stage.

- Stage? - Stage?

What's with the reactions? It's not the funeral this time

or something that is low, but a wedding.

- Wedding? - Wedding?

Premier, did you watch children's dramas while growing up?

But a wedding is definitely better than a funeral.

We can perform normally now.

No problem.

Now if it's a wedding, then we have to play the wedding march from Mendelssohn's "A Midsummer Night's Dream".

It will be this song! Let's start practicing!

- It'll be good. - I like this one, too.

That... This time the groom has a request.

He hopes our orchestra can perform

some trending and lively songs.

What suggestions does everyone have?

Trendy?

- The trendy you're talking about is what we usually hear? - That's right.

No! Isn't it a bit too unique to play trendy music at a wedding?

Don't say that! Everyone has their own interests.

Some people like lively weddings.

That's right! Weddings should be lively.

Moreover, our abilities are unlimited.

We have the strength in our strings to play whatever piece we want, don't w?

But we usually practice classical songs.

Suddenly changing it to trendy, how do we play it?

So true.

Then I have no suitable songs either.

Premier, I think the paid performances that you've been arranging,

are getting harder and harder.

It's really changing my perspective.

Qin Fen, we trust you and let you look for stages,

but you always let us perform unreliable things.

How can you let us down when we've placed so much trust in you?

That's right.

What do you mean these stages?

Why don't you find one?

Do you know how much they charge for the Shanghai Concert Hall?

If we don't do these, then how do we get our money?

Are you going to pay for it? Or you there?

Do you have money? You only know how to talk.

Do you know what was done?

Why don't you think about it? Really!

Qin Fen.

He left.

Qin Fen is under a lot of pressure.

I accidentally heard him on a phone call of him getting rejected by the sponsorship.

Including the previously paid funeral performance, which he performed himself.

Also, we found sponsorship and rent a place.

It was all him working hard.

Everyone wants to fulfill their dream and perform a good song.

Everyone can daydream,

but what is important is that he's doing it all by himself.

He looks like he's happy all-day

but what is he happy about??

What about the funds? Not only the concert hall rental fee,

but the rent for this place, too.

Everyone's cost for meals.

Doesn't someone have to go save up for it?

You guys don't do anything, you just sit back and reap the benefits of the work you haven't done yourselves.

Just disband, then! I can also find a job earlier.

To be honest, I used to not like him

but during this time,

I've seen Qin Fen differently.

Conductor!

We indeed relied on Qin Fen for this orchestra.

If it wasn't because of him, we would've disbanded earlier.

Qing Shang, time to eat!

You guys go ahead. I will come after using a mask.

It's only eating, why would she use a mask?

You don't know. She's using the Xiao Mihu masks that Qin Fen gives her every day.

Her skin is so soft and full of love.

Okay, fine! She's a natural beauty. Let's eat first!

Good!

It's so delicious!

Tastes good! Smell good!

I can't wait! It tastes so good.

- Who made it? - It's so tasty!

I'm so useless.

I can't do anything well.

Qing Shang, you should find a better boyfriend.

Let's break up.

[Xiao Mihu]

Chen Zheng, be honest to tell me.

Did something happen to Team RS?

Uncle, is Qin Fen here?

Qin Fen?

Qin Fen?

[No welcome]

Qin Fen. Qin Fen!

We wanted to talk to you.

Qin Fen, you only said your thoughts.

You have to listen to everyone's voices.

They didn't understand you before so they said that.

Qin Fen, are you going to make us yell outside?

Hurry and come out.

Qin Fen!

We're leaving then.

Remember to look at your phone and respond to us when you have time.

Everyone is worried about you!

[Little Curtain]

Uncle, we're leaving!

Uncle, goodbye.

[Little Curtain]

[Little Curtain] [RS Oschestra Sponsered]

Son, I don't know what you're troubled with right now,

but I'll just say a few words and you should listen.

Before, when you were into rock and roll,

you had experience with music,

so you were able to get used to classical music so fast.

The things you learned and the things you have

will be your biggest support.

No matter what you're going to do, just do your best.

If you already tried your best, then let's not do it anymore!

Forget the nonsense about sponsorships and funding.

Based on what for you to take care of it by yourself? Just don't care about them.

After you inherit my noodle shop, it's enough for you to live.

You don't have to worry about anything.

Just give up and don't care about it!

Rest well!

[Messages and Missed calls]

Are you crazy?

Everyone is looking for you.

Do you know that you're making everyone worried?

Why are you disappearing for no reason?

Also, what did you just say? You don't deserve to be my boyfriend?

If you say you're not worthy, then you aren't?

Let me tell you! I have the right to say if you're worthy or not.

This love relationship has not even started

and you want to break up?

Let me tell you. No way!

Qin Fen, let's have a date later, okay?

let's have a date later, okay?

[LIttle Curtain]

But what are the movie theater and restaurants for?

It looks like I haven't taught my boyfriend enough.

You don't even know how to read a schedule for a date.

I can't blame you.

We were busy with studying abroad when we just got together.

I didn't care enough about you, did I?

You're working hard at Team RS,

so I wanted to think of a way to make it up to you.

I then made a list.

- Today I really— - Anyhow, I have nothing to do today.

You're not allowed to do anything, either.

I'm not eating this one. It'll make me fat. I'm eating this one.

It's so great. I want to go over there, too.

Dad, I'm leaving.

It's morning over there, right?

It's about 5:00 am.

Do you know that in the past I thought dating

is something that is boring and would waste time,

but I didn't expect that I would do it so well

and even with a silly repeating junior whom I despised the most.

Qing Shang, I will always be the repeater you despised.

I feel like I've accomplished nothing,

and you're getting better and better.

Your world is too different from mine.

Do you think that love will be defeated by time and space?

I think our situation right now is quite nice.

- It's different. - I know.

Team RS was just formed.

You have a lot of problems to solve and you're under pressure,

but this was your dream

so you shouldn't give up.

Me, too! I'm in Paris alone.

I'm also facing a lot of problems.

Thus, we should encourage and support each other.

What do you say?

Good thing you're here.

Good morning, Qin Fen.

Goodnight, Qing Shang.

[Good taste]

- Hello? - Hello, Qin Fen. Something big happened.

They're moving our things.

They said that they're not renting the place to us anymore.

Okay. I will go there immediately.
