The first impression

models give is that they're tall,

have great poise,

and look good in anything.

Basically,

they're born to wear anything.

Born with it.

Not much skill required.

I agree.

Being a model is more of an identity

than a profession.

At best, it's a side job.

The fashion industry, you know.

Just take a few more photos
and you're done.

If I were tall, I'd be a model too.

There are plenty of jobs
for tall people.

Why choose modeling?

Always being judged,

wearing barely anything,

and having strangers point and stare.

And, it feels

so disconnected from our everyday lives.

Totally unrelated.

So, I think

being an actor is more meaningful
than being a model.

Ignorant.

Where did they find the audience?

Did the production team set this up?

[Superstar Talk, Han Yijing]

Alright.

Thank you all for being so enthusiastic

and candid.

Now,

let's hear from a professional.

Our guest on today's Superstar Talk,

the most sought-after,

most anticipated,

and most influential supermodel
in the industry right now,

Han Yijing.

Let's welcome her.

Please, have a seat.

Say hello to everyone.

Hello, everyone.

Hi, ma'am.

Hi, Yijing.

It's really been a while.

It's been over three years, right?

These past three years

must have been tough for you.

You've been through a lot, haven't you?

Seeing you make

such a strong comeback,

I'm really happy for you.

Thank you.

For a long time,

people outside the industry

have had certain biases

and stereotypes about modeling.

That's why

we invited you to our show today

to give modeling a voice

and set the record straight.

Is that in the outline?

Doesn't matter.

Just don't bring up those three years.

I remember you debuted at 19, right?

Yes.

It was around the summer of 19.

That's impressive.

From 19 to 24,

in just five years,

you became a regular

at the four major
international fashion weeks.

Well, that's just how it is.

A model's career span is short.

So,

if only that car accident
hadn't happened.

Then you wouldn't have
wasted three years.

You're here anyway.

Why not tell the whole story?

I remember there were reports

about you everywhere

for almost a month.

That night, around 11 PM,

you were in a car accident.

Although you survived,

the doctors said

it could have left you
permanently disabled.

But against all odds,

in just three years,

you're back on the runway,

labeled a warrior,

and even voted as the best role model
by college students.

Both your personal fame
and commercial value

far surpassed what they were before.

Would you say this was a blessing
in disguise?

Why not?

It's said

that you were invited

to an appreciation dinner
for a catering brand

but you didn't go.

Instead, you were

on the highway to the airport.

It must have been something important.

What do you think?

I don't think it was for business.

I remember

you were alone in the car.

After my comeback,

I never wanted to do shows.

Turns out I still made the wrong choice.

I remember Superstar Talk

being a very positive show.

Since when did it become so interested

in gossip and rumors?

Did it get a revamp?

No.

Then is it for ratings?

Of course not.

To be precise, it's for you.

Rather than letting rumors
spiral out of control,

why not make a public statement yourself

to put an end to it?

Makes sense.

Well then…

How about you take this opportunity

to make a public statement

about your four marriages?

Who told you to ask
about all that nonsense?

I can't believe this.

It was just an accident,
plain and simple.

I have nothing to explain.

This is my private matter.

It has nothing to do with anyone else.

I won't use

these three years to play the victim,

and I hope everyone

doesn't treat others' pain
as entertainment,

especially on a public platform.

If there's nothing to talk about,
we can stop,

so we don't embarrass ourselves.

Alright.

Just wrap it up.

As for everyone's opinions of models,

I completely understand.

Prejudice comes

from a lack of understanding.

But that's your problem,

not ours.

If you have the time,

you can look it up online.

I welcome you

on behalf
of the Billion Light Model Competition.

At the end of the show,

as a role model for young people,

do you have any advice or blessings

to share with our audience?

I'm not a role model.

Instead of blindly admiring others,

it's better to be yourself.

[Wanna Be]

[Episode 1]

Why does she keep going to Fan?

Is she into him?

No way.

She's young, beautiful, and rich.

Her car alone could fund
a three-bedroom apartment.

But Fan is not bad.

I want him to be my son-in-law.

Perfect. A well-matched pair.

Here she goes again.

So beautiful.

If I were a guy, I'd pursue her too.

Who's pursuing whom?

Can't you see Fan barely
pays her any attention?

Right, Fan isn't that shallow.

This is it.

[Hailiwang Seafood]

Stop rubber-necking.

This isn't a zoo.

You've

made your point

very clear,

but I...

I'm giving you one last chance,

or I'm really going to France next week.

Have a safe trip.

You're really not coming with me?

You're selling seafood here forever?

I've already talked to my dad.

Once you're there,
you'll start training.

With your talent,

it'll take you at most four years.

Once you pass the assessment,

you'll become the youngest

and most skilled head chef in our group.

How many four-year chunks do we have?

You'll make me miss out
on a lot of money.

You're shortsighted and ungrateful.

Ms. Qu, thanks for your appreciation.

Just come by more often.

I'll give you a discount.

Hey, you...

How could you...?

Man, I need your help urgently.

Quick!

I sent you an address.

Go to my place, pick up a package,

and get it here as fast as you can.

No time.

Stop messing around, hurry!

If it weren't for my dad
opening a new store in Marseille,

you wouldn't have this chance.

Who is it?

Qu Ruoqing again?

Miss this, and you'll never
get another chance.

I'm begging you.

If I don't get it in half an hour,
I'm dead meat.

Listen,

you'll get paid during the training.

Two hundred.

Room and board are covered,
and travel expenses too.

Three hundred.

What are you hesitating for?

Hey, are you done?

Just think about it.

Five hundred.

Deal.

Really?

Payment on delivery.

Full amount.

Lights, check this.

Get this inside fast.

The audience will be here soon.

This board, hurry.

Just put it here.

How's the dressing room situation?

Everyone's here, right?

Yijing, I didn't expect to be
on the same stage with you so soon.

How was yesterday's recording?

When will it air?

Where is the band-aid?

Don't forget next time.

Still slouching?

You need to look presentable on stage.

Or there won't be a next time.

Yes, I'll pay attention.

Yijing,

you could be a bit friendlier.

You haven't been around for three years.

Am I not friendly?

I mean, you could smile more.

Girls who smile have better luck

and are more likable.

Dong Xiaoru!

What is wrong with you?

I heard she's been acting crazy
since she got here.

Already made a few people cry.

What a drama queen.

[Dressing Room,
Han Yijing's Exclusive Space]

Unbelievable!

Can't even do

a simple task like changing a hat.

Sorry.

I didn't expect the delivery
to be so slow.

Are you trying to sabotage me?

The show is about to start.

How am I supposed to go on stage?

I've already called to hurry them up.

Well, just five more minutes.

No.

Three.

Three minutes.

What if it's not here in three minutes?

Then…

Then I'll…

Whose package is this?

Uh, sorry about that.

Here's your package.

Sorry.

I'm late.

How did you get in here?

I called you, but you didn't answer,

so I had to talk to security.

I've been waiting for you forever.

That's it.

Thanks.

Remember to transfer the money.

Wait.

You're the delivery guy?

You smell of fish.

Hailiwang Seafood?

Well…

Actually, the tailor shop
is next to the seafood shop.

He's a runner.

Always going back and forth
between the two.

Say something, Jia Fan.

Jia Fan?

Can't even do your job right
and now you're lying?

[Recipient: Dong Xiaoru.]
You messed up

[No. 1002, 5th Street, Lingshan Road,]
the address yourself,

[Qingbei District, Qingning]
but blamed the delivery guy.

Sorry.

Where was he be found?

Unprofessional,

irresponsible,

and full of lies.

You can go now.

You're fired.

You're going too far.

Stop it.

The package is here,

and it didn't delay anything.

Why are you being so unreasonable?

You're all in the same industry.

You should leave some room for others.

Don't you know that?

Are you lecturing me now?

You're just a terrible…

Not as terrible as you.

Say that again?

You're quite good-looking.

What a pity.

Get out!

Both of you, get out!

Security,

throw them out!

Are you done yet?

Who is she?

That's enough.

What's it to you?

It wasn't my business,

but you're disturbing me.

Han Yijing!

I've heard of her.

Sounds familiar.

Shut up.

You're dressed like this

to show off, aren't you?

Don't think you're somebody

just because everyone flatters you.

In my eyes,

you're nothing.

I know.

But the show is about to start.

Please have some sense
of collective responsibility

and don't drag others into this.

Playing the saint in front of me?

Do you think you...?

You've made the backstage a mess.

Outsiders will think

our modeling circle is this uncivilized.

Who are you calling uncivilized?

Isn't it obvious?

You know very well.

Did they get into a fight?

They always clash as soon as they meet.

Unbelievable.

Han Yijing.

Where is she?

I've tolerated you for a long time.

You'd better not provoke me.

- Otherwise...
- Otherwise,

let's see

who's harder to deal with.

Yijing,

I've been looking for you.

Let's go.

We need to fix your hairstyle.

We're running out of time.

You Ning.

I...

I didn't mean to.

Seriously?

You stepped right on it.

Shut your mouth.

If Ms. Ling finds out,

no one can protect you!

It doesn't matter
if you did it on purpose.

After all, the main piece
you've been longing for

is on me.

And I'm opening the show.

Han Yijing, you're going too far!

You...

Let go of me!

Let go!

Alright.

Stop arguing.

Don't stop me.

What are you doing?

Stop talking.

It's... It's smoking.

Fire!

Get the clothes away.

Hurry, put out the fire.

Over there.

It's okay.

Move!

Everyone, move!

Hurry!

Move!

No!

Don't!

Be careful with the clothes.

The fire is...

out.

Bear with it.

My foot!

Where's An?

It seems he fainted.

It hurts.

Will the show be canceled?

No idea.

A model hurt her foot.

The designer fainted.

And the show director has gone mad.

What a bummer.

If they want to make a scene, let them.

Why drag us into it?

Exactly.

Don't worry.

The clothes are still here.

Missing one person
shouldn't be a big deal.

There was a fire.

Of course, we had to use
the fire extinguisher.

But that

ruined all the clothes.

Which is more important,
the clothes or the people?

Alright.

It's hard to explain to an outsider.

That's right.

Ignorance is bliss.

You should have left
after delivering the stuff.

You shouldn't have stood up for me.

But you were being bullied so badly.

I could've just endured it.

I'm done talking.

I'll take responsibility.

I'm going back to work.

Do you still need help?

Yes.

I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang.

It's all my fault.

Are you a model?

No.

Not at all.

Ever been on the runway?

No.

Lift your shirt so I can see.

What are you doing?

Come with me.

Why?

No!

Yijing, this is too sudden,

and it's peak time.

I... I really can't find anyone else.

You can't just

grab a random guy.

Look,

his height, arm length, and measurements

are almost the same as Ding Chen's.

His look...

Doesn't An

like this kind of

scruffy, dull,

and dazed vibe?

Yes, the sharp ones are not our choice.

But you can't just grab

a total rookie with no experience.

Han Yijing.

Calm down, come on.

No.

I'm right here.

You two are calling me scruffy

and dull.

Are you models so great?

You think your taste is so superior?

Let me tell you,

I'm a star at my market.

I have tons of fans.

Besides,

I may not have done it,
but I've seen it.

Isn't it just a runway show?

Wear some weird clothes,

walk up there,

stop, strike some poses,

then walk off. That's it, right?

Oh, and

when you smile, don't move your eyes.

Raise your eyebrow,

but don't actually smile.

That's how you get the supermodel face.

It's all online.

Easy.

Anyone can do it.

Is that how it is?

Exactly.

Shubo,

get this guy on stage
as fast as possible.

What?

Tell the stylist

that his makeup and hair
need to be plain.

The more unremarkable, the better.

Hold on.

Did I say I'm going on stage?

Didn't you say it was easy?

Then do what you just said.

Walk lazily

with your supermodel face.

Why should I listen to you?

Because you got me into this mess,

caused Ding Chen to hurt his foot,

and almost ruined the entire show.

You made such a big mess,

and now you want to walk away

without taking any responsibility?

Will you be reasonable?

Does this have anything to do with me?

If you don't do it,

or don't do it well,

there's nothing I can do.

But your friend...

Or girlfriend.

Alright, hurry and get ready.

Remember to spray on some perfume.

Come on, you're great.

I'll go talk to her again.

Yijing.

Don't be nervous.

It's just a few minutes.

What are you doing?

Let's just leave.

Before anyone notices.

What are you doing?

Why did you stop?

Keep going.

Sit down.

You, go away.

Sit.

Here, watch carefully.

Watch it.

From the start to the end of the stage,

the designated spot,

it's 25 steps.

Got it?

Pause for a few seconds, strike a pose,

then

walk back the same way.

You'll understand once you're done
with styling.

Just remember,

you have to be confident,

fully confident.

Like you're stepping on the whole world.

And ignore everyone.

Being arrogant?

Yes, arrogant.

That's the feeling.

Let me tell you,

I have experience.

A few years ago, I...

Let's not bring up stuff

from when you were a kid, okay?

Now, please focus

and learn.

If you mess this up,

my career is over.

Watch it.

Watch it.

Being arrogant.

Have you talked to the show's producers?

They're fine.

The hard part is the live audience.

Who knows if someone's recording
or taking videos?

With how fast things spread online,

it's hard to keep things hidden.

Go get the list from the production team

and contact them one by one.

If all else fails, give them gifts.

Mr. Li.

Hello.

It's been a while.

Welcome to the show.

Can giving gifts keep them quiet?

Well, we have to make it work.

Hurry, come on.

Stop dragging your feet.

Come on, put this on.

Right here?

Where else?

Quick.

Hurry.

Put this on.

A thong?

How am I supposed to wear this?

Maybe better without it.

Heard

you put that fishmonger on stage.

If he messes up,

you'll be fully responsible.

You know what,

if something goes wrong, you won't
get away with it either.

Everyone, get ready.

Thirty-second countdown.

Don't be nervous.

You can do it.

From the start to the end of the stage,

the designated spot,

it's 25 steps.

Got it?

Suck in your stomach, chest out,

and look straight ahead.

Only move your legs and arms,

nothing else.

Then

walk in a straight line.

Fan,

straighten your back

and walk in a straight line.

Why are we walking like this?

Are we imitating robots?

We're

walking like cats.

That's why

it's called the catwalk.

Cats?

Cats walk like this.

Silly boy,

we're learning to walk
in a straight line like cats.

So

when you grow up, you can become
a professional model,

walk on big stages,

and then

take on the world.

Are you happy?

Yes.

Get up, come on.

Well done.

Great job.

Come on, get up.

You really do have experience.

My teaching wasn't wasted.

I knew you could do it, kid.

You did well.

I told you.

How simple.

Good.

Good job.

Great, we did it.

Didn't expect that curly-haired guy
to have some skills.

Well, look who taught him.

He fell like that,

but he didn't flinch at all.

So, Yijing?

Did you see that?

Of course she did.

She's been glued to the screen.

Her eyes are practically stuck…

Alright, my head hurts.

When will the celebration dinner start?

I'm starving.

Yeah.

I'm starving too.

What are we having today?

Let me think.

No idea.

We'll have...

Not bad, huh?

Still in the mood to eat?

- Ms. Ling.
- Ms. Ling.

Where were you two

during yesterday's recording

and today's backstage chaos?

I, uh…

Ask the person involved instead.

You've just made a comeback.

Can't you just stay low-key

and stop stirring up trouble?

Trouble just finds me.

Can't help it.

To stand out is to invite trouble.

You know, warrior, role model, all that.

Without those labels,

you wouldn't have gotten back

so quickly.

You're already 29.

You don't have many years left
in this industry.

You have to seize every opportunity.

Consider it your last shot.

What's the deal with that kid
who fell on stage?

You know him?

No.

Which agency is he with?

No idea.

A new face?

No.

Like I said, he's just a fill-in.

I'm leaving now.

Aren't you going
to the celebration dinner?

Everyone's waiting for you...

Given my current state,

it's better to avoid trouble.

Thanks, Ms. Ling.

How did I do today

as a total rookie?

As a total rookie,

your acting wasn't bad.

Alright.

I'll take it as a compliment.

Not really.

You just pulled off a little trick.

Nothing worth praising.

Sorry.

I'm just blunt.

Want to hear a bit more?

Whatever.

I've already heard this much.

Hope

we never see each other again.

People who get a chance
to walk the runway

and then brag about it on their resumes

are a dime a dozen. So tacky.

Now that you've tried it,

you should know modeling isn't just

about putting on a sour face
and walking a few steps lazily.

Have you lost your memory?

If you hadn't forced me,

would I have been on that runway?

Good.

Good that you didn't break any bones.

Just ice it.

A stick, then a carrot, huh?

What's so great about models?

Hello, Warrior Han.

Long time no see.

Why do you always ignore me?

We're old friends.

That's so rude of you.

I just want to do an exclusive interview
about your comeback,

to help you say goodbye to the past

and start fresh. How about it?

[Recording]
I'm Huang Jinde, just an online writer.

If you want me to shut up,

name your price.

The sought-after supermodel,

dumped by her photographer boyfriend,

was chasing love

and crashing.

What crashed wasn't just the car,

but her image.

Warrior? Role model?

All a scam.

Let's be real, she's just
a foolish hopeless romantic.

I'm not asking for much, just 200,000.

Just drunk talk.

Is that really necessary?

If you've got the guts, go get evidence.

Otherwise, it's just slander

and extortion.

Stay away from me.

Don't show your face around me again.

Or

I'll make sure your losses
are greater than mine.

Delete the recording!

Give it to me.

Let go.

Get lost. Let go of me!

Let go!

Get lost!

Give me the phone.

Who are you?

Mind your own business.

Just a friendly reminder.

There are cameras everywhere here,

recording.

I don't care.

Move.

I'm telling you,

beating you to death
would count as a heroic act.

Fine.

Just you wait.

Are you okay?

What did you say?
