[Almost Famous]

The female lead for our graduation showcase hasn't been confirmed. Do you have any views?

I will express my view. I support Yali.

What's the use if you support her? Ding Dongdong has the final say.

That's right. By the way, as the scriptwriter for the graduation showcase and also the director,

tell us what does the female lead need to prepare to qualify?

That's right, Dongdong. Tell us.

I wrote it based on everyday's life.

As the female lead, it's not decided by me.

It's being decided my Professor Li.

Let's eat

Tell us then. Which female lead do you have in mind?

Speak. What are you afraid of?

Cheng Ming.

Her professionalism is number one.

She has always been professional and working hard for the past years.

In fact, everyone could see that and she's right for the play too.

However...however...

Stop that.

What's the reason? Tell us.

You are too nervous.

What about Fang Yali?

You are good in ballet.

It will be spectacular! But she is too shy.

As for Amy.

Your street dance is very explosive, it's like...

- Go ahead! - It's explosive.

But you're lack of focus.

Your focus point is very strange.

And for me?

You're pretty good.

What do you mean by pretty good, Ding Dongdong?

The female lead of the TV version will be me.

That's why I should be the female lead of the graduation performance as well.

Isn't it?

Eat more.

What's this?

What? My mom is at the hospital?

How's it possible? Isn't she in the United States?

Tell me which hospital is she at?

Okay.

- What's the matter? - I don't know.

They said something happened to my mom. I'm going to check it out at the hospital.

Let us go with you.

It's not necessary. You guys go ahead.

- Take care! - Bye-bye.

[Starry Arts Academy Weibo: Revealing the true identify of Qu Shiyun, daughter of the owner of Yiyu Media ]

Amy!

I'm looking for you. How come you're here?

- My mom is at the hospital. - At the hospital?

Fine. Let's go together.

Let's go.

[Episode 19]

Nurse, where is Room 631?

Straight ahead.

Amy, don't worry too much.

How can I not be worried?

Don't worry, you'll be fine.

Mom!

Amy! Are you happy to see me?

Here, have some fruits.

Mom, are you okay?

Hospital told me you were hit by a car?

That's right, where did you get injured?

Look. Here and here.

It's so painful.

That's it?

So how is she doing? Truly?

Are you the patient's family members?

Your mom played go-kart ride in the mall and hit another kid's go-kart.

That's how she got the scratches.

- Is everything else okay? - She is fine everything else.

Let me look at your arms.

It's just those scratches, why're you staying at the hospital?

What do you mean by that ?Look, I'm injured.

Why can I stay at the hospital? What if it left me scares?

That's nothing!

It'll be fine in no time. How would lit leave you any scares?

If you come any minute later, the wounds would have been healed.

Doctor, I'm injured. Can you pay more attention to me?

Fine. If you insisted on staying here, I didn't stop you.

Since you're here, spend the night here for observation.

If you've any issues, press the bell, okay?

Thank you, Doctor.

Mom, can you not make any trouble out of nothing?

Also, why don't you tell me you're back from the United States?

Because I want to give you a surprise.

Surprise? You really gave me a big big surprise!

You surprised me at the hospital.

Aren't you giving me a surprise too?

Come on, tell me who is this handsome man?

Hi Auntie, my name is Wei Feng. Amy's friend.

I got it.

No wonder you don't want to go back.

Why wouldn't I want to go back? You don't know the reason behind it?

Can you not to mention this incident again?

Amy, the thing in the past has nothing to do with you.

Why is it not related to me? Every time I mention about my Dad,

you would avoid the topic. I don't even know what's his name at this point.

I really want to know what had happened to you two in the past.

Amy, how can you talk to your mom like that?

I came all the way back here is for you to interrogate me?

I'm telling you, I'll not talk to you about this.

You better stop asking me.

Every time we talk about him, you would be avoiding it with this attitude.

Amy.

Auntie, actually I've met Mi Dongnan before.

You mean Mi Dongnan has been keep an eye on Amy all these years?

But he hasn't come clear with her?

Auntie, I actually wants to ask you

why can't Amy learn about her biological father?

Wei Feng, let me ask you a question.

If you're a penniless man,

and the family of the girl who you're deeply in love with do not recognize your relationship.

Also, they gave him the opportunity to study abroad.

Will you let her go?

I'm willing.

But that girl rather go through the tough time and willing to be with you?

Will you give her up?

I won't. Because I believe with our hard work,

we can also have a better future.

Unfortunately, that penniless guy back then

decided to give me a better future,

he would rather let me go.

Everybody has those own choice.

But his choice

was indeed become the regret of my life.

I don't want my regret carry down to my child.

I don't want her to disappointed in love after knowing this story.

Wei Feng, please promise me,

please don't tell Amy about this yet.

You can call me selfish or heartless.

But please don't tell her yet, can you?

Okay.

Amy.

I've finally found you.

You had to listen to that nonsense.

Don't say that. Maybe Auntie has some secret difficulty.

What difficulty could she have? Couldn't she just tell me?

Have you ever thought about calming talking things over with Auntie?

It's not that I haven't tried. Never mind. You wouldn't understand.

Why am I looking for my father? Isn't it because of her?

She raised me alone since I was little. In her eyes, I could always see how hard it was, how tired she was.

And it's not that no one has pursued her over the years. But she's always remained alone.

She's always liked to put on outward face of ease and poise.

But I'm the only one who knows that she's actually suffering.

Why am I looking for my father? I just want to see with y own eyes

exactly what kind of man he is; how he could just forget about her for over 20 years.

And also, exactly what kind of difficulty in their relationship did they have that couldn't be resolved and that she can't tell me about?

Actually I was too impulsive with what just happened.

I shouldn't have run out of the hospital like that.

My Mom must be feeling very bad right now.

But every time we talk about that subject,

that woman is so stubborn that I get so mad and can't handle it.

Actually, when every action influences the mood of a person.

that person is the most important to her.

Sometimes, in order to think about what the other person thinks,

you have to step back and consider it.

How could she consider what I think?

Amy, have you realized that this hospital is very close to the school?

There's a karting center near our school.

Auntie surely called you and you didn't pick up.

She couldn't find you. So she was looking around the neighborhood by the school.

Think about it. She clearly wasn't injured; but she told you she was seriously injured.

Why? It's because she wanted to see you.

[Student Housing]

Broher You,

Never mind. I won't bother you.

Hey, Dongdong.

What? Did you drop lose someone?

- Who? - Who? Who else could it be?

Who are you looking at on that computer screen? Qu Shiyun.

I've realized that she can always influence your moods.

- She...she can? - Can she? Of course.

Every since it was revealed that her father is President Mi,

you've become so dispirited and listless [idiom].

What? Are you afraid you aren't worthy to associate with her?

How could that be?

I've finished reading it.

- How is it? - One word: good.

Two words: Divine work.

What else?

I've decided.

I've decided to go take a screen test.

I'm rooting for you.

Brother You, I support you too. Go for it.

President Mi, today, Amy's mom was hit by a car and is in the hospital.

- Amy. - You're back?

- Amy, how's your mother? - Is Auntie okay?

She's fine. What could happen to her?

She's fine?

Wasn't your mother hit by a car?

Do you guys know what? My mother was hit by a cart.

A cart?

A cart...

What kind of face is that? What?

It only makes you happy if something serious happens to my mom?

No, no. I was just worried about you.

- Worried about me? - As long as your mom's okay, that's great.

That way, we can all relax here.

This isn't okay. I have to hurry and tell President Mi.

President Mi, Amy's mother was just hit by a cart

As long as she's okay. This way, you can work on the Graduate Beijing Opera in peace.

[President Mi, today, Amy's mom was hit by a car and is in the hospital.] [President Mi, Amy's mother was just hit by a cart.]

-You bought this at that restaurant at the intersection that's been around for so long? - Yes.

I was thinking that since you've just come back from abroad, so I especially ordered

some specialties from your hometown for you to try.

It's delicious. This smoked fish has the same flavor as before.

I'm telling you. That restaurant's smoked fish is the most authentic.

Then, eat up, Auntie,

Oh, by the way, Wei Feng. How are things going between you and Amy?

We're...great.

Have you kissed?

- No. - You still haven't kissed?

Then, have you hugged?

- Do you like her or not? - I do.

Okay, then. I can tell that you're a good guy.

And I want to hand Amy over to you.

Since you like her, take some initiative.

Being so passive, you make me nervous.

Auntie, don't worry. I will definitely be good to Amy.

That's good then.

I'll just eat a little more and then check out of the hospital.

Then, Auntie, you don't need to stay in the hospital for more observation?

What kind of person am I? This was nothing.

By the way, wait just a bit and you can take me to look around the school.

- It's been a long time since I went back. I want to take a look around. - Okay.

Then, I'll take you for a good look around the school.

Let me tell you how I want to film this drama. Here, a car crash, bam.

- Then, bam, bam, bam. Inside the car that's crashed... - Wait, wait.

Director. Wait a second, Director. I think we should change the way we shoot this.

- Otherwise, our budget won't stretch far enough. - What?

The budget? In my eyes, there's no budget. Let me tell you.

What I want is visual results. Visual results. Do you understand?

I'm telling you, don't keep talking about costs, costs.

I want to make a piece of art. Art.

You Zhiqi.

Director, this is our music composer, You Zhiqi. And this is the director of this drama, Director Lan.

- Great to meet you. - And you.

Sit. Sit down.

You Zhiqi, I don't think we were supposed to talk about the music today. Why have you come today?

Director. I want to interview for Du Chuan.

Du Chuan?

Then, how do you see this character?

When I finished reading the novel, I seriously studied the role.

I think I'm really suited to him.

Then, how about this? Tell me. What sort of notes did you take about the role?

The experiences of Du Chaun and myself are quite similar.

When I was little, I was also kidnapped; I felt those same feelings of darkness and hopelessness.

I think that only by taking the feelings from the very depths of the character

can you bring out a performance with that despair and grief.

That's what separates me from others.

I am Du Chuan. Du Chuan is me.

Director, please trust me.

I can definitely perform him well.

Amy has been looking for you for 4 years.

Why have you always refused to see her?

Because of her mother.

But Amy has wanted to see you so badly.

So, as her father, don't you owe her some explanation?

[President Mi, Amy is going to the dance classroom to rehearse for the Graduate Beijing Opera.]

I thought that there was nothing more in life. Just in a flash

didn't know when but I am already old.

I thought that I would always be holding your little hand.

But you are already taller than my shoulders. For many years

I didn't understand the meaning of life. So I don't know how to guide you.

I just have one dream, which is to give you more happiness.

I have thousands and thousands of things to tell you but at this moment I just want to say,

I thought that life long and hasty.

You grow up unconsciously.

I thought I would obediently listen to what you had to say.

But at times I rebelled. In these years which have passed by I never thanked you.

I never thought of repaying to you.

But mother always repeated the same thing again and again.

What should I say to you?

Amy...

Hello, who are you looking for?

I am not looking for anyone.

I'm the investor for your graduation project "Almost Famous".

I heard that you were practicing so just came in to see.

You are President Mi! I must compliment your vision.

Or script is really nice. It is based on our own story.

Actually, even I have graduated from here.

You are an alumni! Senior!

However, as I was going around I realized that the Academy has changed a lot.

I am not able recognize it at all. I also have to the Administrative Building. Can I request you to show me the way?

Sure, no problem. But...

It's alright. You guys so. I practice by myself.

Thank you student.

Let's go Amy.

How do you know my name is Amy?

Since we are planning to collaborate,

I have been chatting a lot with Professor Li Shuangbai and have come to know some of you.

That's nice. I''ll get my bag.

-You guys go. Bye. -Let's go.

I thought that there was nothing more in life.

The Administrative Building is over there.

Earlier when I was studying here,

there was a lotus pond below the window.

Every summer when the lotus would have bloomed,

many young lovers would fall in love and start dating.

There was a small pavilion near the pond where we

would rehearse 'Romeo and Juliet'.

Turns out that you also know musicals. This is great!

Ding Dongdong told me that your script is based on your own story.

I was very touched. After all, I have lived and grew up here.

I had many dreams when I was at Starry Art Academy.

When I see you all, I feel like I am looking at myself.

Now, your classrooms are here where there was alotus flower bed before.

The small pavilion also isn't there. Has the Starry Art Academy changed a lot in these years?

Yes, the speed at which Starry Art Academy has developed recently is rather quick.

There a lot of memories from here. But the one that I cherish the most is the Red Braised Pork from the academy's cafeteria.

I remember that when I first when to USA, I would everyday miss that Red Braised Pork.

Just thinking about it got me drooling.

When you come here next time we will go to a restaurant to have a meal.

Alright!

Amy!

Mom! Wei Feng! What are you both doing here?

What are you both doing here?

Do you know each other?

Amy...

Amy, I have to tell you something. Come with me.

You both chat for sometime. I'll go and find Amy.

Heard that you were hit by a car. Are you alright?

It has got nothing to do with you.

Many years have passed by

but your temperament hasn't even changed a bit.

Don't try to bring up things that happened in the past. Because of the open and free atmosphere abroad,

I lived a comfortable life.

Why didn't you tell me?

When I was leaving at that time itself I had decided to not tell you anything.

Right now, there is still no need to tell you anything.

If I knew at that time, I wouldn't had let you leave.

You don't deserve to know her.

Why did you go looking for her? Why did you bother her?

I didn't want to bother her.

I didn't even knew that she would make out my identity.

I just wanted to secretly see her.

And talk to her.

I wished to know how has she been.

Who knew that we would run into you.

Do you know?

I recognized her the first time I saw her.

Because she looks very similar to

how looked when you were much younger.

Amy is a very independent girl.

She is very caring and loved street dancing since her childhood.

Now she also teaches kids.

She grew up well.

Sorry,

I can't make it up to her.

Everything is in the past now. You don't need to compensate for anything.

Do you remember?

When we were in the academy,

we would rehearse here everyday.

I rehearsed with you for half a month,

but you still didn't forgive me.

Don't mention this.

Under the current circumstances what is the point of saying all of this?

We have both lived our life.

Me and Amy did live a rather good life.

You don't worry.

I'll go now.

Amy. Amy.

They knew it long ago but they didn't tell me.

He was always by my side, why must he hide it from me?

Your mom might be afraid that it'll affect you, so she...

Affect what?

Wei Feng, did you know about it long ago?

I... Amy don't be angry.

Tell me, did you know about it long ago?

Yes. I knew. But I haven't found the suitable chance...

Chance?

You are the person whom I trust the most.

- Sorry. - All along I thought you were helping me to find clues.

But what happened in the end?

You cooperated with them to lie to me.

What exactly am I in your heart?

- A joke? - No.

How can I let someone whom I like be a joke?

Yes, I like you.

I liked you from Year 1 to Year 4. I liked you for 4 years.

But have you considered my feelings in your heart?

If a relationship don't even have this small trust,

I don't want it.

Fang Yali. Didn't you went to practice with Amy?

You came back so early?

When we were practicing, that President Mi who invested in "Almost Famous" came.

President Mi came?

- Why did he come? - I don't know too.

Anyway, President Mi asked Amy to bring him to the administration building.

He asked Amy to bring him to the administration building?

He is your dad. You didn't know that he came to the school?

We don't have to know everything about each other.

Yes. I saw them having a good chat.

But the way that President Mi looked at Amy was strange.

Strange. The other time he asked me to find out Amy's studying situation.

What are you mumbling about?

Nothing. Nothing.

Who gave you the courage today?

It's Fish Leong*. (T/N: Mandopop singer who sang the famous chinese song "Courage".)

You know how use this method on me now, right?

I'll say something serious.

You really don't want to personally meet him and hear his explanation?

Even though I've been looking for him all these years, but after I saw him today,

I don't even know what to say to him.

- My heart was in really a mess. - I understand.

But some things really cannot be avoided.

Actually I can feel that he cares about you.

I believe you can feel it too.

Then why he didn't appear at all these years?

So all the more you need to ask him personally.

What you said it right. I should go and meet him.

Let him give me an explanation.

These years I've always wanted to know

what exactly happened back then.

What did you say? You want to act in "Nowhere to Escape" without pay?

I wanted you to do music production for this movie, and not be the actor.

Besides your market value is there. What were you thinking?

I've never loved a novel so much before.

When I was reading the novel, I've already completely integrated into the soul of the character.

So I don't act, I will definitely regret.

But don't forget. Director Hua's movie which you acted in 4 years ago

is still the ranked the last on Douban now.

That's why I want to prove myself.

You Zhiqi, I know you want to do a transition.

But this role is too different from your image.

It's also quite different from your positioning. Your fans now are still girl fans and mother fans.

I'm afraid they can't accept your big change.

Popularity is like a bubble.

Fans can like you today, they can like others tomorrow.

Sister You You, you know the fan circle better than me.

You acted in the movie without pay, how am I going to take other roles for you in the future?

You You, as an actor,

the thing that people remember the most in the end is still acting.

I've been waiting for a role that I like.

This time I've finally waited till it came.

- Why can't you believe me for once? - Then tell me,

what confidence do you have that you will definitely act this role well?

Because this movie tells the story about a patient with nyctophobia like me.

I know their pain better than anyone else.

So I'm willing act in it without pay. And I've already passed the audition.

My mind is made up.

Can you please discuss with your manager when you are making a decision in the future?

Amy. Your father's office is upstairs.

Go.
