=Genius comes First=

Ms. Gao, shall we wait a little longer?

I can't make it.

Hurry.

Hurry.

Hurry!

=Episode 8= (I Am Your Leading Actress)

Wait.

Director.

I'm here.

You are late already.

Don't.

Make an exception please.

For this exam,

we've sacrificed our rest time

to proctor you.

You don't take it seriously.

You really don't.

No, I take it seriously.

Director!

Do you? How?

I...

Look, my foot and hand are in.

You can't count me as late.

Ms. Gao, I am here.

Director.

You got up early

just to proctor him.

Please make an exception and let him in.

Let him in, please.

Thank you, Director.

Hurry up, come in.

You're dressed quite thin.

This is to show you

I didn't bring a cheat sheet.

Stop the nonsense.

Sit down to take the exam.

I have no pen.

Why did you even come?

I left in a hurry.

Director, I have one.

Hurry.

Okay.

What's wrong?

Need to use the restroom again?

No, no.

Y-Yesterday,

I've reviewed too much.

I've forgotten

the formula.

You don't know this?

I bet you definitely can't pass this time either.

Time's up.

Apart from the last major question,

you scored 60 points.

Then does it mean I've passed?

I've told you before,

you must reach 85 points

to avoid being expelled.

Miss.

The last major question

has 25 points in full.

Can you guarantee

you will get full points?

Miss.

Whether I can or not,

it's up to you.

Ms. Gao.

I haven't been late for your classes,

nor have I slept through them.

You've seen my efforts.

Right, when I went to revise yesterday,

Director even saw me

and encouraged me.

Right, Director?

He is quite diligent.

This time, for the sake of Ms. Jiang,

(Final marks: 85) I'll make you pass.

Yes!

Yu Lan, come here.

(Binhai University Film Festival)

This is our newly-made proposal.

You're quite efficient.

Just now, my mentor met me.

We had a meeting with the rest of our school.

And

I mentioned the Film Festival to him.

What's the result?

Guess what happened.

He thinks that

although our school is strong,

right now, it does not have

the foundation and atmosphere to host the Film Festival.

However,

under my persistent persuasion,

he agreed to give us support.

Really?

Really.

Thank you, senior.

I will find a time to thank you properly.

Don't mention it.

Yu Lan.

You

are promoted by me.

You can make this happen.

It is also what I want to see.

I've read the proposal

you revised.

It's quite innovative.

Thank you.

But this is not enough.

You need to make more effort.

Now,

I won't always be by your side,

helping you.

I hope you can do it on your own.

The student union has many members.

We work hard together.

How does it feel?

I mean, how does it feel to be the president?

The feeling of dominating others.

Is it good?

I've never thought about dominating anyone.

The student union

has made decisions democratically.

It's because you are too democratic

that the work efficiency is very slow.

Understand?

I'll think of ways to improve the work efficiency.

Alright, I trust you.

Look at the way you're dressed.

Are you going

to do the line dance?

Do I look old this way?

How should I put it?

It looks a bit too old.

That's what I want.

What's wrong with you?

For what?

You choreographed a dance for grannies,

and want to feel the vibe?

What? I...

How about this?

Enough.

You are dressed like my mom.

Oh my.

Hello, ma'am.

Ma'am?

Wu Qianqian, take a good look at me.

With this look,

I thought you were Liu Lu's mom.

It's the weekend.

Are you going to

date the elderly?

What?

Yes, she is.

No.

I'm going to find Li Yanhao.

You going to be his mom?

You always go to him,

yet there's no progress between you two.

Wait.

Who said I always go to him?

She did.

Not me.

You're not any better.

Take us both with you this time.

We can help you out.

Well, I'm not going.

You guys eat and drink.

I'm on a diet.

Then you shouldn't go either.

Don't listen to her.

She has never eaten less.

This time, with our help,

you will definitely succeed.

Definitely?

You don't understand.

This can't be rushed.

I have to get close to him step by step.

Then, I'll be the leading actress in his film,

and finally win him over.

Then you should bring us both with you.

L-Listen to me.

I can go with you,

but I won't take a single bite.

You won't?

I don't believe it.

Alright, let's all go together then.

Okay.

Monitor.

I'm not going.

I have to teach tomorrow,

so I need to prepare today.

Dear.

Let's go together.

No.

Monitor, just give in to us.

I'm not going.

I have work to do tomorrow.

You guys go ahead.

Don't bother me.

The only reliable one won't go,

and the two of you unreliable folks are going.

You two

must be reliable today.

Absolutely.

Let's go.

Like, now?

Wait for me.

Come on, bro.

Congratulations on passing the exam,

and avoiding being expelled.

Is it boring just the two of us drinking?

Xu Xiangdong is coming.

Then it's even more boring.

Us three men?

Li Jiatong is coming too.

Why does she

like to join us so much?

You have to be grateful.

Did you forget

she helped us clear our names?

That's true.

What's this?

Why choose this place?

It must be expensive to drink here, right?

Rest assured.

My treat.

Don't trust him.

He was five yuan short for coffee yesterday

and asked me to send him money.

Your voice message.

Hear it out.

Very flattering.

How dare you!

I'll grill you, believe me.

Alright.

Listen to me.

This meal

is funded from the movie fund.

You're so generous?

Well, I think

we should celebrate for the future great director,

Li Yanhao.

Something's wrong.

Fishy.

You're up to no good.

Are you trying to fool us

to go to work again?

Don't talk nonsense.

Come on.

Here, cheers.

Why don't you wait for me?

This...

Excuse me, madam, you are?

Don't you recognize me?

Wait, what are you doing?

Why are you dressed like that?

Your hair...

Does it make me look old?

Do I look old?

What do you want to eat?

Feel free to order anything.

50 lamb kebabs, please.

10 chicken wings.

Okay.

Well...

Ordering that much?

It's so expensive.

You don't get to ask a beauty

out for a meal every day.

You don't eat something that greasy,

right?

How about I get you some fruit?

Maybe durian?

Cherries?

Sure.

Go buy some fruit.

Durian, cherries.

Go on.

Where's the dance video?

Exactly.

We were dancing

under the sun for so long.

Where's the video?

Well,

I've treated you to hot pot.

We agreed on four meals, but we've only had one.

We should rest for several days.

We could eat it every day.

Alright.

Let me tell you.

After I finished my exam,

in the afternoon,

I edited the video for you.

Here, take a look.

It's filmed pretty well.

This movie is nice.

Look.

How? Tell me about it.

I've started brainstorming a script,

so I need to watch more of these

for inspiration.

And this film is excellent,

very appealing.

More appealing than me?

You are neither appealing

nor unappealing now.

You don't look good at all.

You...

Li Yanhao, I...

Just kidding.

Wait.

I'm curious

why you are dressed like this today.

Don't you know why?

I...

Is it because that day in the canteen,

I said the heroine in my film is an old lady,

and then you get dressed up like this?

What else?

Wait.

I was just joking.

Joking?

Well,

I should order you some pig brain.

You...

I don't care if you're joking.

Anyway, I'm already dressed in this.

Even if the heroine is a nanny,

it has to be me, okay?

But I haven't written the script yet.

If the leading actress

will be

a mature lady,

then you couldn't play her, right?

I can't?

How?

Let me ask you.

Can I be your leading actress now?

Let's talk about it later.

But you are quite versatile.

Right.

Tong is our class belle.

Yes, that's settled then.

B-But you've

never played the leading actress before.

If you don't have much experience...

Sounds like you've been a director before.

And, I've played the leading actress.

When we shot that promo,

I kicked you when you came over.

Alright.

Tentative, all right?

You are the tentative leading actress.

But I have to tell you.

If the script I write

or some issues come up, and you no longer fit,

I might have to change...

What?

Change...

the leading actress.

Let me tell you.

If you can't do it, I'll change the director.

Well...

(Lei Yonghao) (Come out for a drink tonight.)

(No.)

Li Yanhao.

Let me ask you.

You can stay at this school

and make a film,

am I the person you should be most thankful to?

Do I deserve the most credit?

Yes, it's you.

That sounds better.

Wait.

There is someone who deserves more credit than you.

Well, exactly.

Right?

Who is it?

I can't tell you.

I am going to the restroom.

You guys drink.

Don't avoid me.

I'll go too.

(Can't put down the wine just to have a good talk with you)

Li Yanhao, let me ask you.

I'm already the leading actress of your film.

When

can I be the leading actress of your life?

Wait.

You're drunk.

I am not.

Okay, I admit

your acting is quite good.

Enough, let's stop.

I know I'm good.

Then what should I say?

You should say

when I can be the leading actress of your life.

You know?

What are you doing?

N-Nothing.

I'm explaining the role to him,

stimulating Li Yanhao's potential.

What?

Shouldn't he be the one explaining the role to you?

Well...

I can also explain the role to the director.

Right?

Right.

Right.

Right, you can try it out too.

No need.

You two are doing great.

Go on.

Come on, let's drink.

Come on.

How did she fall asleep?

Why aren't you drinking?

I'm not drinking.

Tired from acting?

Listen.

Just now, they...

Xiao Rang!

Are you going abroad later?

Yes.

My parents are also abroad.

Maybe we can go together.

Then it's settled.

Deal.

Come on.

But there's a place I want to go now.

Where?

Make a guess.

Are you going into my heart?

Xiao Rang, you are so corny.

Is it?

Why don't you go into my heart?

Maybe go into my heart.

I'll drink as a penalty.

The stuff online is ridiculous.

He wants to go into her heart.

Here's the fruit.

The durian is sold out.

The cherry shop is closed.

Only these are left.

And these.

Just like this, okay?

No problem.

Come on. Hurry.

See? This camera moves...

Absolutely.

Look at the composition.

Look at the composition and texture.

Great artists.

Filming here?

Of course.

Let's go.

Xia.

You're also filming?

Yes.

I am preparing for the Film Festival.

Director,

did you choose your leading actress?

Not yet, I'm still looking.

Am I suitable?

Then come for an audition.

I...

Director, you go ahead.

We're leaving.

How was it?

How much did we spend on the meal?

880 yuan.

How much?

How much do you have left?

120 yuan.

Well, we need to make money.

I think the movie fund is enough.

I have instant noodles.

But tomorrow,

we must start making our film.

But we can't film on an empty stomach.

Never mind.

Notify everyone

we'll have a meeting over dinner tomorrow.

Everyone?

Plus the leading actress,

there are only four.

Let me tell you.

You are in my turf now.

The boss here is...

Why isn't the bar open for business today?

Is the bar closed because we haven't come

(Closed) to work for Mr. Lei?

Business is usually good here.

And it's the weekend now.

There would be many customers.

Exactly.

Go drink.

Drink, let's drink up.

Stop embarrassing yourself here.

Let's go.

She is really embarrassing.

I'm not.

If you don't come to me,

I'll come to you.

What?

Don't you welcome me?

It's the weekend.

You should be in your bar.

I knew you would say so.

The bartender asked for a week off,

so I

took a day off.

It's rare

that you don't want to make money.

I can always make money.

But now...

Now is the time for me to create.

And I remember

you don't like to see me painting.

So you can leave now.

I'm really tired today.

Auntie, you know what?

It was quite a last minute today.

Fortunately, we worked well

and scored 13 points in one minute.

That's how we won the game.

Are you studying in the sports department?

You've spent all day with a bunch of boys.

Do you have a girl friend?

They are all too weak.

When I'm with them,

I have to protect them.

It's so troublesome.

Luckily, I have you to take care of me here.

You are the best.

Have you taken a shower?

No, why?

Go take a shower. You're all sweaty.

Go, go.

At this very moment, I truly envy Xu Xiangdong.

He doesn't go back to the dorm,

but his rented place.

How happy!

If we were to rent a place,

after drinking, we could just

invite you all to our place.

We are all adults.

Don't need to go back before 10 PM.

What do you want to play at this late hour?

Like,

poker.

Enough.

Just walk them back.

I have to work on the script later.

Alright.

Then you walk with them.

I need the restroom. I'll go back.

Then I'll take my leave.

Bye.

Where are you going?

Back to the dorm, where else?

What for?

The film is about to start.

To work on the script.

That's a deal then.

From today on,

I'm the leading actress of your film.

Yes.

Do you think I'm looking

like a leading actress?

Let's go.

The dorm is closing.

Don't dilly-dally.

Let's go.

Alright.
