[I Am A Super Star]

[Episode 21]

I think Dream of the Red Chamber

has many illogical

and contradictory points

because

the last 40 chapters of it

were not written by Cao Xueqin.

If Cao Xueqin didn't write it,

who did?

How could he say that?

No one has ever

proposed this theory before.

Where did you get the evidence?

Yes, what's the evidence?

You should have realized

the first 80 chapters

and the last 40 chapters of Dream of the Red Chamber

are seriously inconsistent

in terms of artistry and ideology.

To be frank,

the last 40 chapters of Dream of the Red Chamber

are roughly written,

and the plot is a mess.

It can only get 50 points at most.

Even if Cao Xueqin had been seriously ill at a late age,

he wouldn't have such a huge change

in his literary style.

So I'm sure

Dream of the Red Chamber was written by someone else.

The most likely one is Gao E.

That's an interesting point.

In fact, Dream of the Red Chamber

is a signed book.

On each page of the Jiaxu Version,

The Story of the Stone was signed

with the name Zhiyanzhai.

It re-evaluated the ancient version of The Story of the Stone,

which was the most suitable for Cao Xueqin's thoughts.

And he only commented 80 chapters.

Besides,

in Zhang Wentao's poem

To Gao Lanshu (Gao E) of the Same Year,

he mentioned that

after 80 chapters

of the legendary Dream of the Red Chamber

were "recovered" by Lanshu.

Lanshu

was the art name of Gao E.

Guys,

think about it.

If Cao Xueqin hadn't written

the last 40 chapters of Dream of the Red Chamber,

what new situation would we face

when studying Dream of the Red Chamber?

So, all the major flaws and logical problems

that we could not understand and explain

in the past are solved,

right?

Yes.

That makes sense.

Excuse me,

are you a student of our school?

This is the famous host,

planner, composer,

arranger, scriptwriter,

and the discoverer of the Terracotta Army,

Zhang Ye.

Clap up, guys.

Everyone, actually

I have a lecture

next door.

It's about the discovery process of the Terracotta Army

and the achievements of Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng

in unifying the six states.

If you are interested,

come to my place

after class.

Sorry, Ms.

Sorry to interrupt.

I'm sorry.

Sorry.

Why does he have so many titles?

Go over there after class.

I'm quite interested.

Let's go together.

Where are my two ancient books?

Why can't I find them?

Are you sure they're there?

Yes.

I know all the books here.

Where are they?

I remember they were here.

How come it's

One Hundred Thousand Whys?

I'll take a call.

Okay.

Hello?

Hello.

Are you coming back today?

No.

I'll stay here

to talk with my dad.

OK.

I'm just curious.

All right.

No. I suppose it's more than that.

You must care about me.

Fine.

In the future,

I'll report to you

if there is anything.

Whatever.

My eyes are messed up.

Help me look for them.

Dad, they must be here.

Hello.

Are you Zhang Ye?

I'm Wu Zeqing.

Can we meet?

I want to ask you some questions in person.

You want to meet me?

Yes.

Okay.

Alright.

I'll send you the address later.

Okay.

What now?

I'm going out

later

with a professor from D University.

She wants to ask me

some literary questions.

A professor from D University wants to ask for your help?

Yes.

I went to

their academic exchange today,

and I gave them some advice.

It won't take long.

I'll be back soon.

Okay.

You don't have to report to me.

I have to tell you,

because the professor

is a woman.

A woman? Is she pretty?

Think about it.

She's at the professor level,

right?

So she must be 40 or 50 years old.

Besides, she is a researcher,

so her looks

can only be described as not scary.

Come on.

You're exaggerating.

Okay, go ahead.

Rest early.

-Thank you. -Mr. Zhang.

Mr. Wu has become a professor

at such a young age.

You must be

extraordinary.

Mr. Zhang, you are young and promising too

and have done

so many amazing things.

I checked,

your literary achievements

are quite extraordinary.

I'd like to ride the wind to fly home.

Yet I fear the crystal and jade mansions

are much too high and cold for me.

What wonderful sentences.

And those fables.

They are clever and simple.

At first, I thought

they're bedtime stories for children.

But thinking deeply, I found it had an extremely profound meaning.

I didn't write

those fables.

According to legend,

it should be a collection of fables

written by Aesop,

a slave released by ancient Greece

in the sixth century B.C.

I just

collected and sorted them out.

I've heard of Aesop's Fables,

but it's not as much as you said.

The original name should be called

Collection of Aesop's Fables.

There are over 300 stories.

The time span of the story is very long.

And what each story wants to express

is completely different.

It can be concluded that

it's not written by one person.

How should I put it?

It should be considered

a group creation of the ancient Greeks

for a long time.

Although human civilization is great,

compared

with the river of time,

it's like a drop in the ocean.

It's easy to be buried.

What an eye-opener.

By the way, Mr. Zhang,

the two ancient books you talked about

in the public class last time.

I went to the library

and went through all the catalogs,

but I still couldn't find them.

Can you tell me

where you saw them?

Is that important?

Of course.

This will overthrow all our research

on Dream of the Red Chamber.

I...

I need to go to the bathroom.

Come out.

Welcome the advanced gamer.

It's on sale today. Draw three get one free.

Come and try your luck.

Don't make me draw a lottery.

Those drawings before

were useless.

Let me ask you.

Are there any items

that can bring something from the real world

into the game world.

This is not easy to handle.

How can things

in the game world be connected

with things in reality?

You're right.

If I could bring them all,

those treasure chests I found

would be meaningless.

Let me ask you something.

Help me think of a way.

I once read

two books in the real world.

Two very important books.

How can I

find them

in this game world?

Well,

actually, props can realize it.

3D Idea Printer.

Idea printing?

Just focus on the object

in your mind

and then use the printer,

so you can print it out.

But living things can't be printed.

Okay.

Wonderful. Just what I want.

But let me remind you.

Using this prop

will greatly consume

your brain and stamina.

You may not be able to

hold up in the process.

So I suggest you

use the Confidence Potion together.

Stop lying to me.

I trust my own brain more.

So expensive.

No bargaining is allowed for the specified prop.

Okay, I'll buy it.

By the way,

a prop

can only print one item.

If it's two books,

you'll need two props.

You're so crafty.

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

I'll buy two.

What are you doing?

Leave me alone.

You are

intervening in the experimental process.

If not,

the experiment will continue

endlessly.

Don't you want to go home early?

Stand still. Watch me.

Professor Wu.

These are the ancient books you want.

Mr. Zhang, what's wrong with you?

Mr. Zhang.

Come here.

You asked me to come.

Here I come.

Why does my face hurt so much?

Is it an allergy?

[The Story of the Stone]

[To Gao Lanshu (Gao E) of the Same Year]

Song of the Burial of Flowers.

You look pale

and you are black and blue.

Are you allergic to something you ate?

You should know

if I want to kill you,

it's easier

than killing an ant.

Cut the crap.

If it were so simple,

you wouldn't have to

set me up at every turn.

Let me ask you.

Why did I come

to the game world?

What is your purpose?

None of your business.

What is the victory fruit

of this game?

Is it just fame?

Why is everything

linked to fame?

Why did you give me

the Confidence Potion?

That's obviously

a mental drug.

I got it.

You want me

to mess up in the game,

right?

No comment.

Fine. You won't tell me, will you?

Okay.

I'll go

to end this game.

Okay, let me tell you.

I've told you

the result of the game.

Think about it.

My game is over.

Do I need to care about the consequences?

Come back.

Calm down.

Calm down.

What?

Are you scared?

You don't want me to die.

That's why I'm curious.

If this is really a game,

there should be all sorts

of organs and traps

that can kill me,

but I can't see any of them.

And you don't want me

to end

this game.

You seem to be waiting for something,

and you've been observing me.

Today,

you must tell me the truth.

Fine. You won't tell me, right?

I'll find a high place

and jump down.

Okay. Okay.

What I'm going to say next

may be beyond

human understanding.

In fact, we are

the creators of humanity.

You guys...

made humans.

It may be more suitable

to say that we are the dispersers of life.

We travel through

the vastness of the universe.

Let them grow freely

and grow into various intelligent creatures.

We'll choose the best one

to inherit our planet's

most advanced

and mysterious civilization.

The same goes for your earth.

As a patrol,

I'm traveling around planets

to collect data

and ensure the evolution goes smoothly.

So,

I'm your test subject.

Do you have any other

test subjects?

Our experimental equipment

malfunctioned beyond repair,

so...

You are our only

test subject.

If you choose to commit suicide,

the game will start again.

There is no end to it.

When the experiment begins,

our spaceship

has automatically locked

the coordinates of the earth.

If the test doesn't end

as programmed,

we'll be trapped here too.

So...

Forget it.

When the game starts,

everything can only be done

according to the set procedures.

What about the test result?

What if the result is bad?

If that's the case,

you'll lose the inheritance.

It won't affect you personally.

But if it's good,

you will be rewarded.

A kind of superpower.

In human history,

many people

have had great knowledge and achievements.

They were all people

whose brains had been kissed by us.

Then I will

become a great person?

Think about it.

Whether you want to go on

this game or not?

This game

can go on as well.

But

as the only test object

for this game,

I'm warning you.

I have to make three rules with you.

You can't tempt me anymore.

And this is my game,

so I am the boss.

Okay.

Good luck.

How much is

the most expensive ring in your shop?

If it's three carats, it's over one million.

Well, it doesn't have to be that expensive

It's the thought that counts.

Thank you.

Hello.

Move these to our room.

Let me do it.

Dad, we're here.

This way.

Okay.

Let's go.

It's huge.

How are you?

I'm fine.

Thank you.

And you?

I'm good.

This way, please.

Okay.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Why are they laughing at us?

Maybe our clothes

are too casual.

Be confident.

Auntie, hurry up.

I'm starving.

It's almost done.

Zhang Ye.

What a stupid hotel

you chose.

Didn't we agree

to a warm sunny beach?

You know nothing.

Look how well it's decorated.

Do you know how expensive this hotel is?

Without some connections,

you can hardly book it.

No matter how delicious the food is, I'm not used to it.

Zhang Ye,

where did you get so much spare money

to waste?

It's the royalty of Aesop's Fables.

You copied it again?

No.

I just compiled them.

The title page says it clearly.

Let me tell you something serious.

Today, I plan to

propose to your Auntie.

Proposal?

Keep your voice down.

Honey,

how to arrange the rooms tonight?

Nice legs.

Am I in the same room with Chenchen?

Don't worry about that.

The pretty lady,

can I invite you to go down

for a walk?

Sir, could you please

get changed first?

You're so old-fashioned,

you don't deserve me.

What did you say?

What did you guys say about me?

I don't know.

It costs so much money.

Why do they want to see the sea here?

This is no different from the sea

in front of our community?

Of course, it's different.

It's seen from the window.

And the window is a French window.

It's suffocating.

It's killing me.

There's blood. How can I eat it?

It's delicious.

I want lamb skewers.

Have skewers?

Is it edible?

Yes.

I'm suffocating. Let's go.

Look, someone is here.

What are they doing?

What are they doing?

Let me see. Hurry up.

So many people are playing mahjong.

Hello, madam.

Do you want to join

our Mahjong Tournament?

Mahjong Tournament?

Yes.

Our prize is a jade ring.

Is that the reward?

Yes.

Old man,

you can go back now.

How can I get in?

Follow me.

Okay.

I...

Go back.

I can't find the way back by myself.

Dad.

I finally found you.

What are you doing here?

You're sneaky, like digging a mine.

This hotel is like a maze.

I've been wandering around here

for half an hour.

Where is mom?

She went to play mahjong.

Go check on her later.

Hurry up and get me back

to my room now.

I need to get changed.

You don't need to change. Hurry up.

Walk straight.

Turn right

at the window in front of you

and go up, you'll be there.

Mom got bullied.

She got bullied.

Let's go.

Wait for me in the room.

The ring.

Mom has been losing

since she sat there.

Three of Circles.

Chow.

Something's wrong.

Look.

I know the three of them

are in cahoots.

Look at that guy.

He touches his forehead which means he needs Circles.

Touching the nose means he wants Bamboos.

Little Chick.

Pong!

Touching the bottom of his mouth means

he wants Characters.

Five of Characters.

Pong!

Look.

He can get whatever he wants.

He touched his head.

Touching the back of the head

may mean he wants Honors.

Hurry up.

North Wind.

Pong!

How come you can always get Pong?

I'm sorry. I'm lucky.

Bro, they're cheating.

He may win by Two of Circles.

Two of Circles.

Mahjong!

Mahjong?

Mahjong.

Let me see. Show your tiles.

See!

Old madam, this kind of game

is not suitable for the elderly at all.

What if

you get a heart attack?

Who's the old lady?

Don't be angry.

There are guards and referees here.

No one is in charge of it?

Shut up.

Sir.

What did you do?

You touched the beard and the nose.

Who are you?

You want to beat me after losing?

So you can't afford to lose?

Of course not.

But you colluded to cheat.

You're cheating!

What?

Cheating?

Don't talk nonsense.

Mom, let's go. Let's stop playing.

You look like a bad guy.

Look at you.

You cheated, such a bad guy.

Nonsense.

You're not good at Mahjong.

I won in the beginning.

I was lucky.

But I don't know

why I can't win later.

Listen.

This...

Table 34 cheated.

I want to file a complaint.

Complaints?

Fine.

I won't waste time with you.

They are from the organizing committee.

You can complain to them.

I did find out

you three

can't afford to lose.

Let's go.

That's bull.

Come back!

This...

That's going too far.

Fine.

Don't be angry.

This is the prize, right?

I entered the competition

for that.

It looks valuable.

You said I couldn't afford to lose.

Fine.

Chenchen.

Why are you eating instant noodles?

It's not easy for us to have a trip.

Have some salad and bread.

Come on. Let me try this.

Don't take my noodles.

Don't you have food?

Eat your own food.

Try the baguette.

It's delicious when you chewed it.

It's crunchy.

Only here. Please.

It is too hard.

You're so forgetful.

Can you compete just because you can play mahjong?

Have you forgotten about Chandler?

Didn't we win that time?

Shut up.

It was lucky last time.

Don't worry.

I know what to do.

It's okay.

Son,

I'll teach you how to play mahjong.

Forget it.

You've caused them a lot of trouble.

What are you doing? Why are you laughing?

Those three who played mahjong with me

were foreigners.

Maybe they cheated.

There must be something wrong with them.

Otherwise, I could definitely win.

Come on. I could win.

He deserves to get his teeth kicked in.

He's just looking for trouble.

What?

If it weren't for...

What?

Well...

Zhang Ye,

are you thinking about

the jade ring?

The fish basin

is the treasure of our country.

Stop eating noodles.

Give it to me. Have some soup.

Have some soup.

Have some soup.

What does that mean?

-No. -What do you mean?

You can't buy ten.

How about five?

No way.

I'll buy one, okay?

The Lucky Sticker

can only be bought one at a time.

Who changed the rule?

Did you change it?

Are you playing with me on purpose?

[Lucky Sticker]

I'll draw the Lucky Sticker this time.

What is he doing?

I don't know.

I've never seen him do that before.

A Lucky Sticker! A Lucky Sticker!

Great!

Again.

Is that appropriate?

I don't know.

I've never met before.

You are a little young to play

with Earthlings.

Come on.

Seven of Circles.

Mahjong!

West Wind.

Mahjong.

Why did you win again?

Mahjong.

Two of Bamboos.

Mahjong!

Six of Bamboos.

Chow.

One of Circle.

Nine of Circles.

Pong. Two of Characters.

Four of Characters.

Mahjong.

He won again.

Referee.

Table 8. Zhang Ye advances to the next round.

I'm advancing to the next round.

I won!

I won!

Wait, please.

What should we do?

Do your best.

Come on.

Come on.

One, two...

Please be quiet.

Go for it!

Go! Go! Go!

Mr. Zhang, who arrived late,

is really amazing.

He went through several rounds

and finally reached the semifinal.

The winner of this round

will compete with

the winners of the other three rounds

for the champion.

Yes.

Of course,

the next

competition

will get tougher and tougher.

It's strict.

Yes.

So, in the next

competition,

I hope you

show your best performance.

I wish you all good results,

the grand prize is waiting for you.

I hope you can show your skills

and style.

Man,

you can't even build walls well

but come to participate in Mahjong Tournament.

Don't you know your place?

Hurry up, okay?

Which one do you want?

My friend.

You count if there's one more.

It's 14 tiles, right?

Yes. Come on. Let's get started.

14.

Hurry up.

Don't delay our from winning.

Hurry up.

Wait.

It seems I have Mahjong.

See?

-Yes. -I have Mahjong, right?
