[Out Of The Dream]

[Episode 23] ©English subtitle by iQIYI *Ripped by JinHan_27* *Main cast by Yao Chi & Chen Yu Si*

[Art creates your dream. Dream builds your future.]

Kid.

Show your

rebellious spirit

on the stage.

You talked the least

in routine training.

I didn't know that

you're so eloquent.

Since you're determined,

you must do well,

to live up to

what you have promised me.

Make traditional operatic circles

stand in a high profile.

You have an injury on your foot.

Don't try to show off.

Another injury will delay your training.

If only

there was someone taping my words.

I must write them down in my autobiography.

What did I say just now?

[Li Huaiyuan]

[Hello, Miss Yu. I'm the director of Talking Stage.] [A staff sent your Wechat account to me. I'll be in charge of contacting with you.]

[Friend request accepted]

[Hello, Miss Yu. I'm the director of Talking Stage.] [A staff sent your Wechat account to me. I'll be in charge of contacting with you.]

Let me say hello.

Is this

too business-like?

Change to another one.

[Love you]

Are you OK?

[Talking Stage has something to say.]

Excuse me.

Hello, are you Yu Fei?

Yes.

The conference room

is right over there, all ready for you.

OK.

[Yu Fei] [Guanshan Qianchong]

Yu Fei, Miss Yu,

is still a student,

but

she's been representing the new generation of Beijing Opera,

particularly recommended by

the cast of "Golden Age of Spring and Autumn Period".

In the younger generation,

she's the best female singer of senior male roles,

which is rare.

She grew up in an opera troupe,

working on Beijing Opera,

which perfectly fits

with the theme of our program,

right?

Right. Right.

Sorry to interrupt, but I want to ask

why he's

not here?

That guest, Guanshan Qianchong,

has other schedules today.

So his meeting was rearranged.

It doesn't matter, Miss Yu.

Let me walk you through

the whole process

of this programme.

There are three stages:

[Yu Fei] [Guanshan Qianchong]

guest performance,

guest debate,

and closing arguments.

You'd get angry if he went.

You still get angry that he didn't go.

[Dislike]

As the old saying goes,

only women and maths are difficult to understand.

And me.

Are you playing the role

of the seventh fairy?

I should have put up

a picture of you two at the door

which reads "No Entry".

Isn't it a pet-friendly restaurant?

Dogs and cats are allowed.

[Dislike]

Since you're

so sure about your position,

this drink is for you.

How does it taste?

Did you put braised pork in it?

I learnt from the western tastes

and added some cinnamon.

Pardon?

Cinnamon. You wouldn't understand.

Yu Fei,

I have something to tell you.

This weekend...

Don't mention this weekend.

I'm stressed.

I know you have to record the show this Saturday.

I mean, this Sunday morning...

She'll record the show with Bai Feili.

[Dislike]

His absence from meeting today

has made her behave like this.

So for this Sunday,

she's probably gonna be recovering at home.

Who's recovering?

Who's gonna be recovering?

As the old saying goes,

[Dislike] [Daydream Space]

love is something fluid,

beyond one's command.

It doesn't need reasons.

I'm just saying this for you.

Before you get hurt,

you can't think straight.

Hurry up. Everyone has arrived.

Bring the rest of the flowers.

Move it over.

[Talking Stage]

Hello?

Can you handle it by yourself?

It's all right. Take your time.

I can manage it alone.

[Wish you every success. May your career be thriving.] [From Wang, a big fan of Shandengting troupe]

Go straight in when you arrive.

I'll be waiting for you.

OK.

Please pay more attention to Yu Fei.

[Talking Stage has something to say.]

Despite 40 shows recorded,

I've never seen such a large audience.

Jiubai has gained

lots of attention

since the exposure of Lingjiu.

None of them are fans of Beijing Opera.

But from today onwards,

they will be.

There seems to be quite a few. Look.

Pay more attention to Yu Fei.

Thank you. Do you come for Yu Fei, don't you?

Be generous with chants.

Do you come for Yu Fei?

You've brought the light board!

You can talk later.

Hurry in.

Yu Fei. Yu Fei.

Hello? Excuse me.

You can't come to watch the show

with nothing in your hand.

Take one more.

He must be a big fan of Beijing Opera.

How serious he is!

Miss Yu,

do you know him?

An old friend.

Now we should put on eyebrow power.

Sorry, no brow eyepower.

I can't wear stage makeup.

But I don't think it looks very good on camera.

Never mind.

Without stage makeup,

I can beat them, too.

Is it about to start?

Yes.

Let me change the shoes for you.

OK.

Do your foot feel tight

with the protector?

It's OK.

Look at that camera.

- This is Key No.1. - Vice casting director,

did all guests already stand by?

Ready, director. OK.

Everybody gets ready.

Three.

Two.

One.

Start.

This is Talking Stage.

[Talking Stage]

A warm welcome to the live audience.

Welcome.

Of course, we all know

around 1920 and 2020

[Support Guanshan] [Jiubai]

Beijing Opera, ACG culture and Chinoiserie stage play,

respectively, were the most popular art forms

among young people

at the time.

As the representatives of traditional operas

and newly-developing plays,

they're the subjects of today's programme.

Well.

First,

[Has something to say.] [Wow] [Yu Fei] [Guanshan Qianchong] [You are the best.] [Forever Jiubai]

let's welcome...

Let's welcome Mr. Zhou to have a speech.

Beijing Opera, from the past to the present,

has been a quintessence of China.

That is to say,

it has commanded an overwhelming position.

Am I right?

Yes!

OK. Miss Luo.

The presence of a chain of contempt in art

makes me look forward to today's battle even more.

If you come

from the past to the present,

then we are

[Support Guanshan] [Forever Jiubai] [Jiubai] [You are the best.] [Future belongs to you.]

the future.

Yeah!

OK. OK.

Our game hasn't started yet,

but the judging table has been

full of smoke and gunpowder.

Never mind.

Whether the chain of contempt exists or not

or what do people of Beijing Opera and Chinoiserie stage play

think of each other,

I'm sure

after today's programme,

the anwser will be in your mind.

As usual,

we have three stages,

guest performance,

guest debate,

and closing arguments.

Now,

let's welcome the first performer,

the founder of Jiubai,

[Talking Stage]

a studio of Chinoiserie performance,

Guanshan Qianchong.

Make some noise.

[Support Guanshan] [Jiubai]

He's so handsome.

♫ A glimpse of fate in previous existence. ♫

♫ Affectionate people look at each other. ♫

Nothing to scream about, okay?

♫ The Broken Bridge hasn't be broken. ♫

Is that all?

The next performance is the best.

♫ The drifting cloud is no longer important. ♫

The next one is Yu Fei.

♫ The pledge has been made so easily.♫

♫ But missing is better than meeting. ♫

♫ Turn around. ♫

♫ Only to disappoint beloved beauty. ♫

♫ You look to the spring river. ♫

It's kind of cool.

♫ How much meeting, avoiding and lingering in eyes? ♫

Boss is worthy of the boss. So cool.

Look at the bullet screen.

♫ But missing is better than meeting. ♫

If boss wasn't so crazy when asking me

to rewrite the scripts,

I think I'll fall in love with him, too.

Well,

♫ Turn around. ♫

He's better to be crazy.

♫ Only to disappoint beloved beauty. ♫

Wuchang.

♫ You look to the spring river. ♫

♫ Who can meet each other day and night? ♫]

[Support Guanshan] [Jiubai]

♫ Spring is half way through. ♫

♫ Whose heart is hard as a rock? ♫

♫ The mist around warm jade lingers on. ♫

♫ The loved one of this life wanders in the sad dream. ♫

♫ The spring water ends in deep hatred. ♫

♫ The young man slowly returns ♫

♫ Missing is never better than meeting. ♫

♫ It only takes a moment to pass each other by. ♫

♫ Peach blossoms half cover the faces. ♫

♫ Fleeting time stirs the hearts. ♫

Guanshan. Guanshan. Guanshan.

[Support Guanshan] [Jiubai]

[Yu Fei]

Guanshan. Guanshan. Guanshan.

What a beautiful show! Wonderful!

Thanks for Guanshan Qianchong's wonderful performance.

Thank you.

[Wow] [Yu Fei] [Guanshan Qianchong] [You are the best.] [Forever Jiubai]

Wow!

Please go backstage for a rest.

- He'll come back - Miss Yu.

with a more exciting stage.

Get ready for the stage if your earphones are OK.

Is your foot really all right?

It's okay.

- Fine. - Please.

It's really beautiful.

So beautiful.

So attractive.

However,

we have a more attractive show.

The next show is

Beijing Opera

presented by Yu Fei.

Let's welcome.

[Wow] [Yu Fei] [Guanshan Qianchong] [You are the best.] [Forever Jiubai]

Take a look.

Look at the next one.

I don't know how well

my sister has prepared.

Let's see first.

This is Yu Fei.

Who's Yu Fei?

The best senior male. Don't you know?

The youngest senior male.

When the singing starts,

you'll be amazed at it right away, you know.

It's ready.

Here we go.

♫ Sima Yi, Sima Yi ♫

♫ Sima Yi, Sima Yi ♫

♫ Seeing the mountain scenery from the city gate tower, ♫

♫ I suddenly heard a hubbub in the city. ♫

♫ Banners and pennons fluttering, ♫

♫ It turned out to be soldiers of Sima. ♫

[Wow] [Yu Fei] [Yu Fei]

Bravo!

♫ I once sent someone to pry, ♫

Is she great?

♫ And was told that, ♫

♫ You led troops and marched westwards. ♫

♫ One was the incompetence of Ma Su. ♫

Excuse me.

Milk tea, please.

♫ One was the fall of Jieting due to disharmony inside. ♫

Hello?

Beijing Opera?

♫ It's lucky for you to capture three of my cities. ♫

It sounds different.

Beijing Opera can also be accompanied by

modern instruments and electronic music.

♫ Now you're greedy to conquer my western city. ♫

It's a modified version of "The Empty City Trick".

The effect is fantastic.

This summer belongs to Beijing Opera.

Right.

Come on, guys.

♫I, Zhuge Liang, am waiting in the watchtower, ♫

Do you want to try today's specialty,

Best Opera Singer Pear Juice with Cream.

♫ Waiting for you here to have a talk. ♫

Done.

♫ The streets of the western city are cleaned, ♫

♫ Ready for you to station troops. ♫

♫ I have nothing to greet you, ♫

♫ Only lamb and good wine prepared early, ♫

♫ To reward your armies. ♫

♫ Now that you're here, you should take the city. ♫

♫ Why do you hesitate, trapping yourself in a dilemma? ♫

♫ What are you thinking of? ♫

♫ I only have two musical boys aside. ♫

♫ I have neither an ambush nor an army. ♫

♫ Don't let your imagination run away with you. ♫

♫ Come here. ♫

♫ Please come up to the watchtower, ♫

♫ And listen to my playing. ♫

Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

[Wow] [Yu Fei] [Guanshan Qianchong] [You are the best.] [Forever Jiubai]

Yu Fei.

How about it? That's good.

[Wow] [Yu Fei] [Yu Fei]

Yu Fei. Yu Fei. Yu Fei.

[Support Guanshan] [Jiubai]

What's that? Quintessence, right?

Yu Fei. Yu Fei. Yu Fei.

Sure enough,

Liu Xichan is one and only

in the world.

And in the world,

Guanjiu is also one and only,

like a super limited edition that deserves

to be put in collections.

Hello, everyone.

I'm Yu Fei

who plays senior male roles.

Thank you, Miss Yu. Thank you.

Please give Miss Yu some time

to change her costume.

Let's look forward to

more exciting parts of her,

shall we?

Great!

[Wow] [Yu Fei] [Guanshan Qianchong] [You are the best.] [Forever Jiubai]

Let's give some applause.

Thank you. Thank you, Miss Yu.

[Talking Stage]

Miss Yu.

Next is the Q&A part with the tutors.

It's the cue cards. You can prepare for it.

Thank you.

Your foot, does it still hurt?

It's all right.

Your shoes are too tight.

Let me loosen it up for you.

It's okay. It's okay.

- I can do it myself. - I'll loosen it up for you.

- Thank you. - Never mind.

Oh, let me do it. Leave it to me.

Let me loosen your shoelace.

[Talking Stage]

Here.

Miss Yu.

[Guanshan Qianchong Yu Fei]

Mr Lou.

Is it so urgent?

I'll go there now.

Let's go.

The programme isn't over yet.

Go back and watch it online.

[Talking Stage]

Stance is your sword. Words are your spear.

5 minutes of talking battle.

Let's begin.

[Wow] [Yu Fei] [Guanshan Qianchong] [You are the best.] [Forever Jiubai]

[Talking Stage]

[Support Guanshan] [Forever Jiubai]

I wonder what questions they'll ask.

Let's see.

We don't know yet.

Mr. Guanshan

has always claimed to

dislike fame and wealth

and engage in creation behind the scenes.

Now,

you step into the spotlight.

I want to ask Mr. Guanshan.

Do you still have your roots

in stage play?

Miss Yu can rest assured.

I still have my roots in stage play.

And for this reason,

I want to spread what I love

to more people.

Nowadays,

more people play attention to

Chinoiserie stage play.

They flood the market,

which causes

those true lovers

to be forced out of the market

for lack of capital.

I'm a lucky one.

I have a team,

[Support Guanshan] [Forever Jiubai]

whose members share the same passion as I do

and are willing to settle down

do good Chinoiserie stage plays.

As for the entertainment circle...

As for cooperation with performers in different genres,

is it also helpful for your creation?

You can ask in a straightforward way

about the hype in the entertainment circle.

And I can give you an honest answer.

Yes.

Moreover,

in this cooperation,

Lingjiu is an old member of us

since the founding of Jiubai,

as well as my friend for years.

Mr. Guanshan is indeed noble.

My next question is,

does your cooperation

include spreading gossip?

Do you care about the gossip?

I know,

many of you who like Jiubai

are more or less

concerned about gossip about us.

- But a play should be judged by whether - What for?

it's good or not.

Why would he ask such a question?

To be professional is the standard.

[Talking Stage]

To meet the standard,

we're willing to

cooperate with performers in different genres.

Now that we're on this subject,

I also want to ask Miss Yu,

do you think

art

needs providers?

It's not the topic that

producers and I agreed on in advance,

but the topic that

I would like to discuss more with Miss Yu.

In my opinion,

pure art

needs providers.

Is pure art independent?

Sure.

How does pure art with providers become independent?

As long as the will of the creator

is not controlled by the provider,

then it's independent.

Providers will only make offerings if they want something.

Since they want something,

as the creator,

how can you make sure that you won't be a soft touch?

It's the quill on the military helmet

in Meng Xiaodong's operas.

I wish you would like it.

No. Mr Lou.

It's so valuable.

I can't accept it.

Accept it. You deserve it.

Miss Yu,

I want to give you a word.

May good wind arrive,

to help me succeed.

So do you think

pure art

can't be independent?

Yes.

Are you taking advantage of art?

Yes.

I do take advantage of art.

There's nothing wrong to take advantage of it.

I hope Miss Yu can

dispel doubts from your mind

and figure out

what you really want.

What are they doing?

[Forever Jiubai]

Caring about each other?

Is this a new marketing means?

[Support Guanshan] [Jiubai] [Forever Jiubai]

Is there anyone who would

agree with

his opponent in the debate?

He is sure to lose the debate.

Do you want him to win?

I don't want him to win.

From this moment on,

I will cheer for my sister.

One day of sibling relationship

[Yu Fei] [Jiubai] [Forever Jiubai]

is worth of a hundred of kindness.

You're blocking my view. My view!

Boss can say frankly what he wants to say.

Why does he have to ask my sister

such embarrassing questions?

He's concerned about you sister,

- afraid she might be taken advantage of. - Take advantage of?

I think he himself

is the master of taking advantage of others.

Isn't he with the one who betrayed Jiubai?

You don't know issues between adults.

Stop this nonsense.

I didn't. I'm all grown up now.

You have interfered with the recording.

Please leave now.

Mr Lou,

the gift has been bought,

and will be sent to the responsible person.

OK.

[Talking Stage]

[KEER]

Are you planning on proposing, sir?

Xiao Zhu,

are you sure it's a proper time?

Since you're gonna tell her sooner or later,

let's make it early.

I'll take it.

OK.

Dao Ge,

I've told your fortunes.

On the weekend morning of November 3,

No matter what means of transportation

you take to arrive at her house,

there will only be green lights.

You will never be late.

Nine o'clock,

without a second missed.

This is your only chance to bare your heart.

Brother,

That's all I can do for you.

[Talking Stage]

The fruit was picked

before it was ripe.

Oh, you've got things down

haven't you?

Here.

[Passport]

Send me away?

You're more eager to leave.

I've always

been cooperating with others

under the principle of "merry meet, merry part".

I also like to finish things to completion.

For our cooperation,

give you a present.

[Magnetic Resonance Imaging Report] [Bai Feili Department of Psychiatry]

[Talking Stage]

We have a very fierce and exciting talk

in today's programme.

We do really see

a true rivalry today.

Mr Zhou wants to talk.

Please.

Before you start

your closing statements,

I have one last question

for Guanshan Qianchong.

Do you think

your Chinoiserie stage plays

can succeed?

What's your opinion?

I think,

not your generation.

A commercial break?

- What you said about - Hang on.

market and capital

There's got to be an "explosive point" in this part.

just goes to prove that young people

are eager to run before you keep your feet.

You rack your wits about being famous.

It's essentially different from the art

we were doing as young people.

Why do you think

being famous means running?

All our lives,

our generation

has been pursuing the foundation of art.

Of course,

I've made some research on

Chinoiserie stage play.

However,

it's still a callow and immature

genre,

even rearranged into

some works that lack foundation.

So how do you talk about art?

Mr Zhou.

I very much appreciate our seniors.

Because of your success,

we have a track for life,

which has a definite beginning and ending.

All we need to do is compete for speed.

Whoever runs faster

can have a better future.

But

is there only one track

in our life?

Surely we can have

many different directions.

Surely, there are as many routes

and many possibilities

as there are people.

[Talking Stage]

So please,

allow us to make mistakes.

Anyone who commits big mistakes

is to be expelled from Shandengting troupe,

♫ Canoe adrift on the sea ♫

and forbidden to mount the stage all dressed up.

♫ Or wind across the forest ♫

Allow us to wander.

Why do I have to make a choice

between love and career?

♫ Fury against kindness ♫

Can't I take both?

You've also read a lot of plays.

From ancient times, who was able to achieve both?

♫ Crowds are silent but also turbulent ♫

They lost the beauty for the career,

or retired from the world with the beauty.

♫ Time flies and life is transient ♫

Well, just try it.

If you just give up

♫ We don't have much time to hesitate ♫

without having a try,

you'll regret it.

Allow us to be broken.

♫ I won't let you go ♫

I really degraded myself.

♫ Like a beast breaking out of the cage ♫

I can't believe I came back

to let you humiliate me again.

♫ Rushing through the winding river and against the roaring wind ♫

It doesn't matter if we make a detour.

It doesn't matter it we once fail.

♫ Even if I shout in despair ♫

We live in the world

not to surpass others

♫ The hidden pain of the past ♫

but to become ourselves.

♫ The whisper of passing time ♫

♫ The parallel universe burning in my dream ♫

♫ Memories like... ♫

Yu Fei.

Don't be afraid of being broken.

There's more than one path,

and more than one destination.

Don't compare yourself to others.

You won't be Queen Dong.

You won't be anyone else.

You are yourself.

Hello, whose order?

Mine.

Please enjoy your meal.

[Super Assorted Dish]

You ordered it?

Who has allowed you to drink, you little tyke!

Who's a tyke?

You see it?

I'm Hao Shi.

Male.

From Jiangsu province.

I'm an adult.

Fine. Let's drink it.

I don't know what's going on with boss lately.

Everyone is so serious these days.

He's still so fierce every day.

And you saw what happened just now.

He dared to do that to my sister.

He was the one who broke up with my sister.

Because he's an adult.

So what?

Are adults

supposed to become the people

they used to hate the most?

When Chocolate joined Jiubai,

he said he loved making clothes.

and took to comics.

Dress his favorite characters

in the clothes he designed.

This is your dream,

right?

Now my dream becomes bigger.

I wish

I would make every beautiful dress

Guanjiu wears.

But what if I don't like you?

Whatever you do,

I won't like you.

Will you give up on your own dream?

I don't know.

But I'm sure it would hurt.

If I just give up my dream

because you don't like me.

I don't think it matters.

After all, if this blow

is counted a level 10,

giving up my dream is just a level 9.

This is the dream.

A word sounds nice

but not light.

A person's dream is very heavy.

Guanshan carrying the dream

of Jiubai and running forward

must be saddled with heaviness

that you and I can't feel.

But he's an adult

who's been on this path for a while.

He met people like Gui Deng

who could only unload their dreams

because the reality blocked their ways.

He also met people like Li Hentian

who had to change themselves

in order to keep their dreams alive.

The more people he met along the way,

no matter they chose to or were forced to lose dreams,

the more he would

understand others' difficulties

and try to be worthy of others' persistence.

To make people behind him

carry their own dreams

and go on,

To support Jiubai,

giving more people

a place to dream.

That's what adults are.

But why does he understand so many people,

but not understand you?

It's not that he doesn't understand me.

He just doesn't love me.

It's not his fault.

What about me?

I must have drunk too much.

I mean little boy,

come on.

Today,

let me

give you a blow

of alcohol.

Come on.

So today,

can I

make a little progress on my dream?

Where do you want to progress?

First, stop calling me little boy.

OK, little boy.

I said don't call me little boy.

Get it, little boy.

You did it on purpose, right?

Fine.

Today,

just allow you to stride a little bit longer.

From now on,

don't call me Guanjiu.

Good.

Call me

an embodiment of beauty and intelligence,

the prettiest programmer from Tsinghua University,

the guardian of Chinoiserie,

Queen Guanjiu.

Guanjiu, speak slowly.

I almost forgot all.

Forget it, little boy.

Don't go any further. Let's drink.

Cheers.

You played cool.

You put on airs.

You didn't attend

the victory banquet.

What's the...

What's the big deal?

I'm simply an ex-girlfriend.

You coward!

Break old rules to create new?

What's the...

What's the stupid things?

You still...

You still care about me.

Why can't we just be together?

Oh my God!

Bai Feili, the kept man,

can really pull low tricks,

even on the female guest in the program.

He dared to ride the wave of Lingjiu

Tonight we're gonna snipe at this guy.

Done, I'll call right now.

Today, I'll be the snowflake in an avalanche,

involving everyone of his family.

What the hell!

Happy birthday.

You are

the female guest in Talking Stage.

- That's me. - It's really her.

What are you waiting for?

Take pictures. Hurry up.

Let me teach you.

It's fine

to play a double game in the screen.

Now you actually

stand up for him offstage.

Get away!

More food, and less curse.

Do you want to pick a fight?

I've always wanted to teach you, you keyboard guys.

It happened that you're all together today.

Come on.

Guys,

give her what for!

All you do

is stab others in the back,

casually typing some words online.

How much

your casual words can hurt others,

do you know?

Without the shield of keyboard,

you're nothing.

Let me tell you.

Bai Feili is not who you say

he is.

He's the bravest

and the most responsible one

I've ever met.

He carries

everyone's dream.

No matter how tired

or stressed he is,

he will run on.

He is

really

a very very good...

That's it.

Stop now.
