[Brilliant Class 8]

[Episode 14]

Although the concert only gave one opening to our school,

there are no restrictions for the amount of people that take that opening.

So it's hard to decide who is better suited for a moment.

It may take more time to make this decision.

It's fine as long as you confirm things before the deadline.

You didn't have to come here.

The main problem is that the two kids are currently awkward with each other, and I'm worried about them.

There's no obstacle you can't overcome.

Most things will be solved as long as you think it through.

Before you worry about tomorrow's business,

finish today's work first.

Did I do anything wrong today?

Don't doubt yourself because of anything someone else says.

But you're not just someone else.

Mu Chen, how's it going?

The truth is, my idea is consistent with yours on this cooperation.

But you know Old Wei.

He's firmly opposed to it.

I can't force it either. How about forget it this time?

I hope we can fight for an opportunity to cooperate next time.

All right.

Since we can't work together,

do your best. Doing your best

is how you show the greatest respect for your opponent.

Okay, I'll do my best too.

Mr. Xiang, it's done.

Deskmate will go see you in the music room tomorrow morning.

What do you need me for, Mr. Xiang?

Gezi even threatened me with fasting.

She said that I must come.

Xingyao, play the piano with me.

I haven't played the piano with someone else in many years.

What? I don't deserve

to have you play with me for a while?

Just say what you want to say. Don't beat around the bush.

Don't be so petty.

Outstanding people will meet opponents that they both love and hate at the same time.

I don't need it.

You're young, yet you have the temper of a celebrity.

I think aside from Gezi, no one can cure you.

Gezi wouldn't beat around the bush so much.

Yin Xingyao, the more outstanding a person is, the more he needs an opponent.

Like Van Gogh and Gauguin, Picasso and Matisse.

Which one of them didn't diss the other every chance they got?

But in his later years, Matisse said to Picasso

that if between the two of them, one of them died first,

who would the other be able to talk to?

I'm not them.

Many times, often it is our opponent who knows us best,

just like Mu Chen and I.

Mu Chen can't be considered your enemy, can he?

Otherwise, you won't be so lonely when you make music.

You are young, what a good time.

Why be hung up about the past?

Give each other a chance.

Yin Xingyao is playing Chopin's Fantasie Impromptu.

His right hand and left hand are rapidly switching in different rhythms, making people start hallucinating.

While making certain the pace is steady,

he also adds personal touches.

Sure enough, he is modest about his skill.

Liszt's clock imitates the sound of a clock,

transferring the lively violin theme onto a piano.

With different fabrics and techniques in different sound zones,

he has made all kinds of variations.

Sure enough, he's an award-winning musician.

He played this song?

I'm sorry.

Deskmate.

There won't be a second time.

They made up!

The name list is confirmed.

Mr. Xiang and I are in consensus that Yin Xingyao and Ke Yu are equally professional.

So we decided to let them play a piano piece together for the contest.

I've already applied for this with the sponsor.

They think a piano duet is acceptable.

So they can attend this contest together.

Continue.

As a teacher, I think what Yin Xingyao and Ke Yu lack is not competitiveness.

But they have to learn to work together so they can win together.

So although the school only has one competition spot,

I still hope the school can let them go together.

And?

- What? - You haven't learned yet?

What are the students' opinions?

They both agreed.

Good.

Well done.

How was it?

Mr. Xiang, I'm so happy.

The director agreed?

Why so surprised?

Isn't this within expectation?

Out of everyone I've met, Director is the wisest, most responsible, and most considerate of students!

Stop, stop. The Director is not a God.

Overly dramatic praise should be given in front of people. Otherwise, they are useless.

Thank you for this.

Why thank me?

It was something that didn't take effort.

Although Mu Chen and I couldn't cooperate,

the fact that they can play together has the same effect.

It somewhat helped me achieve a goal in advance.

I know. You've been busy lately with your manuscript.

Now you have to worry about Yin Xingyao and Ke Yu. Thanks for your hard work.

I didn't worry.

Then why were you waiting here?

I'm the head teacher of Class 8, okay?

Okay.

Yes, yes, you are the head teacher of Class 8.

But since you helped them fix their conflict, I still owe you a word of thanks.

Thank you.

Gross.

Miss Su.

Miss Su!

Why are you so happy?

Through Mr. Xiang's and my combined effort, we solved a big problem.

You two together have always been stronger as a team, creating a lot with little.

How so?

It's true.

Although you often fight, chase each other around, and despise each other,

but when you're together, you're unstoppable.

The music classroom is a very good example, right?

Liusan, you can't say that.

So, there is only one truth.

What?

That's an area I've never set foot in.

I think it's beyond the scope of my expertise.

♫ (Moving on without you) Cuz now I'm moving on, moving on ♫

♫ Yeah, I'm moving on (Moving on) ♫

♫ (without you) Now I'm moving on, moving on ♫

♫ Yeah, I'm moving on, moving on ♫

♫ without you ♫

♫ I don't need saving ♫

♫ Could you leave me alone? ♫

♫ You see me crying ♫

♫ Let me cry alone ♫

♫ Cuz now I'm moving on, moving on ♫

I'm still alive!

I never expected that Miss Su would be your sister.

You two are so different.

So what were you questioning before?

How come after finding out that she and I are sisters, you so easily let go of your doubts?

- I... - Sister!

You've been coming here a lot lately.

Tell me, what's up?

I came to see him.

This is our housing community's access card. Here.

Miss Su, you are...

Tomorrow morning, I need to take the students to the concert.

Liusan is going to attend an academic training.

Xiang Dongnan will be left at home alone.

I wanted to give you the access card with the house password, just in case.

Miss Su, he was just so focused last time that he forget to eat, which resulted in gastroenteritis.

It's not a big problem. You don't have to worry.

It's better if you take it. It's not a big deal.

Thank you for your concern towards Xiang Dongnan.

It's what's necessary.

By the way, you and my sister...

Night running partners.

I remember my sister only likes running alone at night.

I was actually quite worried about her safety.

But I'm relieved that you're there.

I will protect her.

Thank you, Brother Lin Sheng.

No problem.

I've also spoken with the sponsor.

They think the piano ensemble is not a problem.

So the two of them can attend the contest together.

Sure enough, they've become different after becoming friends.

Thank you, Sir. Goodbye.

Bye.

Who was that?

He's the one who reads the natural gas meter.

Reading the meter?

I paid the fee online two days ago already. Why did he come to read the meter again?

Maybe something went wrong online, so he needed to check again.

Maybe.

Where is Xiang Dongnan?

Composing in his room.

It's nothing special.

His assistant is not there either.

You can relax, I'll keep an eye on him.

Good.

Take it easy, both of you.

Just imagine those sitting in the audience are all winter gourds. Don't be preoccupied with the results.

Just imagine it's as if you were rehearsing in the music classroom.

Perform normally, and there will be absolutely no problem.

Come, take a few deep breaths with me.

Tell yourself you're not nervous.

Inhale.

Miss Su, I think you're more nervous.

How? I'm not nervous.

I'm helping you adjust your mood.

Miss Su, we...

I'll play well.

Of course, you two must cooperate well.

Don't drop your guard.

People sitting in the audience are all teachers from major music colleges.

Aren't those sitting in the audience winter gourds?

All right, all right, stop laughing.

Hurry backstage.

Got it. We won't embarrass you.

You two must put on a good show.

When it's over, I'll treat you to a feast.

Keep your word.

Go.

Good luck!

Xiang Dongnan, you'd better be all right.

Brother?

What happened, Brother?

Hello, this is 120 emergency center. Excuse me...

Did you play the wrong key today?

You played it wrong, okay?

You guys did amazing today.

You are the pride of Class 8, the pride of the high school affiliated with the normal university.

Miss Su, can you take it easy? Focus on driving.

I'm just happy. You are my pride.

Call Mr. Xiang later and we can have dinner together.

Let's tell him the good news face to face.

Let's not.

You can just make a call and tell him.

I've called several times, and he didn't answer.

He's probably busy.

Hello?

What? I'll be back soon.

Why are you here?

Security, sorry. I know you have a rule.

But just do me a favor, okay?

Come on, come on.

Sure enough, it's you.

How many times have I told you? Snooping into the privacy of all the students and staff at the school!

Do you know you're already on the blacklist of Director Su's?

Blacklist?

Quickly drive away and leave.

- Help me, okay? - Hurry up.

Don't do this with me.

What are you still looking at?

I'll leave.

Not a big issue. Just try to rest more.

Thank you, Doctor.

Sorry to trouble you with coming all the way here on the weekend.

Mr. Xiang didn't want the students to worry,

so I have to trouble you.

I understand. Let's do this.

You can let Mr. Xiang take a break here first.

- Don't let him walk around right after he wakes up. - All right. Thank you, Doctor.

- Okay. - We've really troubled you. Thank you.

- I'll get back to work first. - Take care.

You're awake?

The school infirmary should be the safest place now.

No one will suspect us.

Take some time to go get another check up.

Didn't they say that your condition was taking a turn for the better? How come, again...

The song is only half written.

I can't finish it before the deadline.

More haste, less speed.

Stop imposing unnecessary psychological burdens on yourself.

What if something happens again?

I thought I could do it.

What you are doing now is dwelling on unimportant issues.

Don't forget what you once said.

What we should care about are good songs, not the deadlines,

not the results of any competition.

All right.

Your task now is to have a good rest.

Leave the rest to me.

Go to sleep.

I personally saw Xiang Dongnan's assistant carry him down the stairs.

I figured he must be ill, but they're not going to the hospital. Instead- Who?

It's just acute enteritis.

Since President Wei is so concerned about Xiang Dongnan's daily life,

why don't you arrange a nanny? Then you can take care of him and keep an eye on him.

The best of both worlds, isn't it?

Thanks for your hard work, Mr. Dayu.

It seems your tasks have been completed.

This is legal!

You can't just hang up my call.

R-Right?

Give me a glass of water. I'm thirsty.

If I even can't do what I'm good at, what else can I do?

Anything I do is a waste of time.

Even eating is a waste of time.

I am hungry.

You're right.

I'm really dwelling on unimportant issues.

Even if I continued, so what? I still can't write it.

A'Sheng, Why call me through the curtain?

I can't even do what I'm good at.

What else can I do?

I feel like everything I do is a waste of time.

I'm a little hungry now.

You're right.

What I'm doing is dwelling on unimportant issues.

So what if I tried harder? I still can't write a song.

Xiang Dongnan, you're dead.

Tangtang Zhengzheng!

Losing weight this, losing weight that. All you think about is losing weight.

What's the use of being so thin as a teenage boy?

Good health is the most important.

Being too fat is not healthy either. It's okay to be thin.

The most important task for a high school student is learning.

If you can't get into college, even if you have a model figure, it's no use.

Every profession has talented experts within it.

There's nothing wrong with being a model.

Fine. You can lose weight.

Can you exercise? How about eating less?

Why do you have to do those unreliable things? Using your body as a joke to do experiments?

Treat yourself like a guinea pig in the lab. How do you know it's bad if you don't try it?

If you can put your motivation to lose weight into your studies,

you wouldn't get such bad grades and end up here.

People who study too hard can also end up here.

Shut up!

- Are you all right? - Sorry, sorry.

Are you hurt?

I'm fine.

We're at school.

Tangtang Zhengzheng is in the infirmary.

Why didn't you tell me at once?

You didn't answer the phone either. What if something happened?

He simply has hypoglycemia.

So he came to get checked at the infirmary.

It's no big deal. Don't make a fuss.

When I used to have concerts, I often had an apple a day or a handful of vegetables.

Fainting happened all the time.

If fainting is not a big deal, then what's a big deal?

He didn't faint. Who told you he fainted?

Did you encourage him to lose weight?

Me? Don't slander me! I also just found out he's trying to lose weight.

Really?

Miss Su, we've known each other for a while.

Am I just such an unreliable person in your eyes?

Yes, I can't do anything right. I'm a joke, all right?

Then why did you come to the infirmary?

I fainted.

Miss Su, why are you here?

You actually fainted?

So you were in the infirmary because you fainted?

What else? Did you think I was encouraging Tangtang Zhengzheng to lose weight,

so I came here to keep it a secret?

I didn't say that.

That's what you thought.

Sorry, I misunderstood you just now.

I don't accept it.

Anyway, every time something happens, you blame it on me.

I'm used to it.

I'll go see him.

Don't go.

If your blabbering was useful,

why would he need to come to the infirmary instead of talking to you?

All right, I've solved his problem. He won't do anything stupid again.

Really?

He and I just made a pinky promise just now. Didn't you see?

He promised me he wouldn't randomly lose weight again.

A pinky promise?

- Can the pinky promise count? - No.

Yes it can.

Tangtang Zhengzheng is not the only student you have.

There are two more over there.

Then I'll send them back first.

If you need anything, just call me.

Don't worry, Miss Su. I'm here.

Then I'll go first.

Are you... really all right?

I won't die.

I'm fine.

Let's go.

I didn't expect you to care a lot about your students.

You can't take care of your own body, but you care about them losing weight.

That's because of you.

You left without saying a word.

You heard what I said, right?

Go ahead. What do you want?

Help me keep this secret,

and I'll invite you to a concert.

I'll treat you to a big meal too.

I'll give you another guitar.

Do you want me to release an album for you?

Do you have a favorite star?

Yes.

You like Wei Lai?

I envy her for being naturally thin.

You want to be thin like her?

Yes.

You want to be thin like that?

It's not necessary.

I want to do it to be healthy.

I want to be as thin as her.

For her and for myself.

Mr. Xiang, you don't know! I've tried many ways to lose weight.

There's nothing I haven't tried. But there are things you've never heard of.

But all were useless.

Mr. Xiang, isn't God so unfair?

For some people, it's no use no matter how hard they try.

And other people don't need to work hard at all.

They're born with everything.

Nothing is naturally given.

We all need to work hard.

Wei Lai doesn't. She can't get fat no matter how much she eats.

Isn't she naturally born to not gain weight easily?

You said Wei Lai can't gain weight from eating?

I understand. Now I am tasked with the mission to reveal the truth to the world.

A moment to witness miracles is coming.

- - Who is this? - Wei Lai.

Wei... This...

- - This is Wei Lai? - Keep your voice down.

I'm only showing you. Don't share with anyone else.

Okay, I promise not to tell anyone.

What about what I just said?

Mr. Xiang, what did you just say?

I didn't hear anything.

That's what happened.

I thought you were the one behind the curtain.

So I talked a lot.

It was so embarrassing.

- Are you all right? - What do you think?

You'd better worry more about your students.

- What about my business? - That's what I should worry about.

Do you want to re-coordinate the time?

I definitely can't change it.

Then I'd better go back first. Maybe we can save it.

Brother.

How about we wait for the next opportunity?

Don't we all think a good song is more important than winning a competition?

No way. Seize the opportunity and you will succeed.

Besides, Martin is a singer I really like.

I hope to cooperate with him. Time waits for no one.

I know, but your health...

My health is fine.

I'll first take care of the matter with Tangtang Zhengzheng.

I'll take care of my business after.

All right. Then I'll work on something else first.

Are you okay if I go?

- Are you there yet? - Remember to drink your milk.

Okay, I see.

Miss Su, we've known each other for a while now.

In your eyes, am I such an unreliable person?

Nothing bad will happen, right?

Coming.

Hello, you are...

Hello, I am Mu Chen, a friend of Dongnan's.

Hello I'm a colleague of the Mr. Xiang, Su Qi. I'm also his roommate.

- Come in. Please come in. - Thank you.

- Please have a seat. - Okay.

Would you like something to drink?

No, don't bother.

No trouble at all. Water, tea, or milk?

- Water then. - Okay.

- Drink some water. - Thank you, Miss Su.

Is it just you and Dongnan living here?

Three teachers are co-renting together.

Have you and Mr. Xiang scheduled something?

He's not at home at the moment.

It's okay. I'll wait for him.

How is his health lately? Is he sick?

I don't know the details.

I heard he had acute gastroenteritis, so I came to see him.

Acute gastroenteritis? Again?

Again? Does it often happen?

It's more frequent these days.

Did he have too much pressure while writing songs?

Maybe.

Liusan.

This is Mr. Chen, our other roommate.

Liusan, this is Mr. Xiang's friend.

Mu Chen?

- You know him? - Yes.

Singer. Very popular.

Hello, Mr. Chen.

Are they filming a reality show now?

Hello, Classmate Tang. We meet again.

If you don't make things clear today, I'm never going to be done with you!

Brother Lai, enough.

I'm a female star, okay?

You must give me an explanation today.

Why did you show him that picture?

Because of you, Tangtang Zhengzheng fainted because of losing weight.

What's wrong with showing him?

What if he tells others?

That's perfect.

"Celebrity Wei Lai's inspiring weight loss journey" will be a trending hot topic in minutes.

And it'll save your father some money for marketing.

No one is as bad as you.

We are good brothers. Don't be so fussy.

Xiang Dongnan, come here.

I haven't practiced dancing lately. I have no place to use my energy.

You dare to hit me while wearing high heels? Be careful, don't fall!

Then I'll go back first.

You won't wait a little longer? He should be back soon.

I have some other work I need to attend to.

Then I'll let him know when he comes back.

Okay, thank you Miss Su. Thank you, Mr. Chen.

We'll have to trouble you to take care of Dongnan.

No trouble at all.

Without effort, there's no success.

The three of us living together can maintain a dynamic balance.

Wei Lai?

♫ Don't touch me! Focus ♫

♫ He has luck ♫

♫ I want, I want what you want ♫

♫ No sense of what the bank is doing ♫

♫ I don't need a Prince Charming ♫

♫ I seem like... ♫

What are you doing here?

I'm looking for Dongnan. You guys were togehter?

How is your health? Much better?

I?

I just have a little cold. It's all right.

Old Wei told you?

Don't listen to him. You can't believe what he said.

Come on, come on. Let's go.

Let's go to our usual place.

Thank you for today. Go back early.

When will you come back?

Hello, teacher. It's none of your business when he's going to come home.

What's the relationship between you two?

Do you like him?

Who are you?

I...

Please wipe it first.

She's really kind-hearted, beautiful girl.

These marketing accounts are all chasing after the popularity.

If something else comes out in a few days, everyone will forget about this.

Don't worry about it.

Your health is most important.

I'm all right. Look at me! Do you think I am not okay?

It's just the two of us now. Tell me what's going on.

I am really okay.

Dongnan, we are brothers.

Just tell me what pressures you have.

I don't know whether I can help you or not.

But tell me, and you'll feel better.

What's the matter with you today? Didn't you come to drink with me?

You aren't drinking. I'm supposed to drink by myself?

What's up?

Something on your mind?

It's a bit embarrassing.

I do have one thing I want to talk to you about today.

No.

I want to beg you.

We are brothers, don't beg. Just tell me.

Can you give up the cooperation with Martin?

Why?

It's really unreasonable that I'm asking you to do this.

But Dongnan, I've been in this industry for so many years.

I finally got people to slightly hear my voice.

Do you know how happy that made me?

I also know my own ability.

I really don't have more years to do this.

I almost can't hold on.

President Wei told me,

if I can't write any songs and accomplish something,

he will take back all the resources he gave to me.

This is my only chance.

Dongnan, I really need this opportunity.

Can you help me?

I know President Wei can do this.

Just like what he did to you before.

Dongnan, you've left the industry already.

Can you help me? Consider that I'm begging you.

Why don't we go drink somewhere else?

How can you drink like this? Let's go.

What do you mean? I haven't even started drinking yet.

Do you remember you are a teacher now?

A'Sheng, you're here.

Yes, I'm here.

- What about Hongwei? - We didn't drink much.

- Not too much, not too much. - Hongwei go, let's sing.

Sing, sing, sing go.

Mu Chen! I changed my name now.

Let's go.

Mu Chen, I know. How could I not know?

Hongwei sounds better.

- Has the bus arrived yet? - Yes.

Let's go.

Sheng, let's give up.

Didn't you say to try again before?

You gave up after a drink?

I knew it.

Okay, I'll listen to you.

Give the sky a bright color. [I'm not the real film]

Give the world a happy song.

It is another warm and sunny day.

In the familiar melody, let's welcome today's lunch break.

As the saying goes,

a man of ambition creates a long will.

A man without ambition sets goals often.

Be a person with ideals,

as we are the young, in our prime years.

Meet every challenge during the growth process with high spirits.

Trust that we will overcome all obstacles.

I'm your announcer, Le Yi. I'll see you next time.

The effect of giving those children a rehearsal was really good.

I also found some inspiration.

Make more persistent efforts.

You have thrown yourself into the trap, so don't blame me for grounding you.

It's so cruel. Let me out!
