Welcome back to Shanghai Share Life!

This show is sponsored by
the sports app Keep.

Keep's livestreams make
fat-burning happier.

Is my pronunciation accurate?

-Yes.
-Keep.

-Sure.
-Keep.

Great. Let's watch this week's
content together.

I want to see the boy's face.

Yes. We are about to witness a smile.

He even brought a basketball with him.

Pink shoelaces!

He seems so youthful.

That's too young. Twenty years old.

A National Division I basketball player.

This is pure youth, twenty years old.

And he must be super tall.

I kind of get Carmon now.

Youth is necessary.

Found it.

It wasn't easy.

Anyone there?

Episode 9 (Second Half), Week 9
“The Challenger”

So many shoes.

Is anyone here?

Anyone?

Carmon!

Hello, I am your new roommate.
My name is Sun Shirui.

-Hi.
-Were you taking a shower just now?

Did you just get here?

I just came up from downstairs.

Okay. Why don't you first--
there's the patio.

Why don't you go look and walk around?

Then wait a bit while I tidy.

I'll come find you after, okay?

Okay. No rush. Take your time.

I'll go look around.

Great. It's a little sudden.

There's a basketball court too.

This is how you do it.

Okay. This weather doesn't match.

[panelist] He's so cute.

It's too cold.

[panelist] He's like a kid chatting to himself.

Sorry for the wait.

Sorry.

No problem.

No problem, just sit. Take it easy.

How are you feeling?

I feel...like I have a lot of questions.

What questions?

How many people are there total?

We have five now.

So are they at work right now, or...?

Yes, they're busy working.

Then, let me introduce myself.

My name is Chu Mengna.

You can call me Nana.

Or Lala, either is fine.

So you are still a student?

I am still a student.

But I think you also seem
like a student. Are you?

So should I call you big sis?

How old are you? What year?

Guess.

Guess?

You're not post-2000 are you?

Really?

2000-what?

2000.

2000?

I was the youngest before you arrived.

After you arrived,

I've become a big sister.

Isn't that good?

Then what should I call you?

Everyone usually just calls me Didi.
[T/N: Didi means little brother.]

Didi? Okay.

I can give you a simple introduction
of our house first.

You see there's the washing machine.

Typically people wash their clothes
and hang them to dry here.

And you see there is a grill over there.

Once before, we all--

That one?

Yes. We grilled and ate together.

Have you looked over there?

Let me show you.

Look.

There's a basketball court.

Can you play basketball?

I am a CUBA (Chinese University Basketball Association) player.

What?

CUBA player.

CUBA, for real?

Really?

Of course.

I'll prove it to you later.

That's pretty awesome. I don't dare--

I don't dare admit
that I also play basketball.

Do you also play?

Yeah, I play.

When I was little, I played a bit.

A bit?

Yes.

Do you want to go down and play?

Let's go.

[panelist] Nana is also pretty hospitable.

Quick, let me see the

charisma of a CUBA player.

Chu Mengna (Nana)
Student, 22 years old

Wang Tianqi
Salesperson, 26 years old

Wu Kawen (Carmon)
Designer, 29 years old

Li Xing (Hao)
Manager, 35 years old

Chen Liuming (Ming)
Financial Advisor, 27 years old

Sun Shirui (Didi)
Student, 20 years old

I'll let you go first.

Ok.

First to 3 baskets.

Shouldn't you go easy on me?

Go easy on you?

For example, if you close your eyes

or tie up your hands.

Ok.

I'm starting.

I can tell you used to be on a
basketball team

from your layup form.

You really tied up your hands?

Alright, you win.

You won.

Your turn.

Play seriously.

Not messing around now.

Defend well.

Okay.

Play for real.

[panelist] He just dropped it in. So tall.

I surrender.

Big sister is old.

[panelist] People who play basketball
are really handsome.

[panelist] I agree.

[panelist] I also like youthful types now.

Let's go again.

Aren't I playing a good defense?

Defend again.

Just make this a little harder for me.

You can foul however you like.

Ok.

[panelist] How will Wang Tianqi feel after seeing this?

[panelist] He'll want to die.

[panelist] He's a challenger for Nana, really.

[panelist] Because Tianqi also plays basketball.

I'm going to block you.

Go for it.

[panelist] Who do you want to block?

Do you want to try to dunk?

Sure.

What should I do?

To dunk you just...

I can't dunk.

I'll help you.

Just stand over here. Stand here.

Stand here.

And then?

Then you jump up and I'll prop you up to let you dunk.

No way.

I am very heavy.

No way, have some faith in me.

We do this often.

I'm scared.

Believe in me, nothing bad will happen.

Don't be afraid.

Wouldn't that be a hug?

Do it. Go!

I can't, I'm too tired.

How about we go take a break?

Ok.

I really...

Youre pretty good.

I haven't played in so long.

I'm not that good.

I am a "Didi" [noob].

You won today.

I'm the noob.

Didi is indeed the "Didi" [noob].

Alright, alright.

Fortunately, we didn't have to watch that play out.

She controlled herself.

So you really used to be on a basketball team?

Really.

I believe it.

I was in elementary school when I started.

Elementary and junior high, it was a long time ago.

I also started about that time.

I played so badly now.

No way, didn't you just win?

You let me.

I didn't let you really.

In our apartment,

Tianqi also really likes playing basketball.

And he plays well.

Later, the three of us can play together.

Sure.

They will probably be back soon.

What is your major?

Performing arts.

Performance Arts Department.

Right, I'm an arts student just like you.

I recall for some basketball students

admissions was really difficult.

-Wasn't it?
-You're right.

Actually, I was held back a year.

Me too.

Because in my first senior year of high school,

I suffered an injury.

Then as a result,

didn't do well on the entrance exam.

But I kept at it.

Actually, I thought about giving up,
quitting basketball.

Just be an ordinary student.

But, it's something I've loved
since I was a child.

I couldn't help it.

I couldn't just give up on those feelings.

That's really similar to me.

During my arts exams,
something came up the first year,

then the school I got into wasn't ideal.

I wanted to retake the exams in a year,

and then I got into my current school.

My experience is like yours.

It does seem to be a little bit similar.

Oh no, he's a challenger.

We're the same!

We're so alike!

Sounds interesting.

You seem a bit cold.

Let's go in.

It's quite cold.

Next time we have a chance,

big sister will play against you again.

-It's right here.
-Great.

[panelist] Hey, look, the adults date is coming.

-Welcome.
-Hello.

This is your reserved table.

Okay, thank you.

Thank you.

You come here often?

Yes. The Italian food here is delicious.

[panelist] He's not wearing glasses, see?

[panelist] Right. He's in a bad mood.

Excuse me.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

The ham has a flower.

Yeah.

-Cheers.
-Yes.

This one is delicious.

Yeah.

[panelist] So defeated.

How are you today?

I'm okay. I haven't really been in the
mood these last few days.

You know how I went with Carmon
for a bike ride?

Then she said,

that...I might not be her usual...
type for romantic relationships.

[panelist] His wording is evasive enough.

Right.

Take a sip and then talk.

She said she prefers a youthful guy.
Youthfulness.

I...I don't know. I'm still...

My mind is a mess.
I don't know what to do.

But basically, I'm still willing to
make an effort for her.

So you really, truly like Carmon.

This is the first time I've met a girl

who has chosen such a slow approach
to her personal growth.

I feel like it's very special.

[panelist] It's over.

[panelist] His standards make it obvious

[panelist] that Ming has no chance.

This kind of person basically doesn't
exist in our industry.

-Yes.
-There are absolutely none.

She has not been affected by this world.

This is also why I was instantly
attracted to her.

So even if she said what she did yesterday

about lacking youthfulness,

you don't feel angry.

Instead, you want to figure out
how to change.

Your current state of mind is--

Actually, I feel a bit sorry.

Because during this whole process,
I think I did a lot of things

without trying to understand her feelings.

It wasn't easy for her to say
those words to me yesterday.

She is not someone who would say
those words lightly.

But because of how much initiative I've taken,

she was forced to do things she didn't want to.

Cheers.

But have you thought about,

what if you put in a lot of effort

and you think you've got that youthfulness,

but if Carmon still thinks it's not enough

or it's different from what she imagined?

Or perhaps, is it possible that
youthfulness was just a pretext...

I didn't think about this part because

I think the chance to meet someone
like this is very rare.

If I don't try my best, I will regret it.

Sounds very touching.

I actually have a question.

It's just. In this moment, besides Carmon,

would you consider anyone else?

[panelist] She is really persevering.

Not at the moment.

Quite cool.

And I think this is a particular moment.

Like I said, in fact, I think I haven't

earnestly expressed my feelings to her.

I still need to find a chance
to properly express myself.

I don't want it to just fizzle out.

But actually many things just fizzle out.

Then if it's something you can control,
don't let it fizzle out.

Cheers.

But there are many things
you can't control.

That's true.

Just take care of yourself.

-Done.
-Let's go back.

Boss, check please.

I will eat one more.

Here.

You still pay with a debit card?

What else?

And you still want to be youthful?

You need to download Alipay
and enter your card.

Really?

I haven't entered it.

If I were Carmon, I would also say
"please, be a little more youthful."

Keep up with the times?

Who uses a debit card still?

Can't just download games, I also need to download payment apps.

Great.

You can show me how to download it
on the way back.

Okay.

Let's finish the wine.

Okay.

Be happy.

Cheers.

I especially liked that segment.

Because the two of them are similar in terms of
IQ, EQ, age and experience.

-Sentence by sentence...
-Perfectly in sync.

It just felt really special, but they are also just feeling each other out.

It was so good.

It's like, not every sentence
was clearly conveyed,

but the other person
understood regardless.

Really nice.

They don't say it outright.

They gel really well, that's
not something you can script.

It's something that can
only happen organically.

And it feels just when you look at him,
you're not just seeing his face,

You're seeing what's in his heart.

You see his thoughts and the torrents
of his emotion.

It's really something.

And wrap it all up with the debit card situation.

Very natural banter.

It tied back to the youthfulness topic.

Ming is such a good conversationalist.

She breaches those topics with ease.

They're both really skilled.

It would be impossible for any of the others
to chat about these kinds of things.

And let's also talk about
the exciting part.

Didi.

Sun Shirui.

His name is Didi.
[T/N: Translates to younger brother]

Then we will call him Didi.

Do Didi and Nana feel like a couple?

You bet.

Definitely so.

The schoolyard romance feeling.

The most wonderful thing
is that he and Nana

have similar experiences, such as
repeating a year in school.

Very similar experiences.

Then do you think he is
a threat to Tianqi?

Tianqi didn't watch this video.

If he did, it would be hard to say.

Didn't she say,

"I'm going to block you."

But she still rejected him.

Didn't Didi want to lift her up?

She said no, we're tired, let's go rest.

If he lifted her, that would've
crossed the line.

Is lifting like stepping on--

No, it's like this.

By holding under your armpit.

Do you have a problem? Are you crazy?

You've gone crazy all of a sudden.

You're like a Spider Demon who has finally seen
Tang Seng. [T/N: From Journey to the West]

What I imagine is that you would laugh
because it's ticklish here.

Wouldn't you laugh?

If you're like this I will block your shot.

I am now very curious whether Brother Hao

will retreat when he sees real youth.

He won't.

He won't?

He would think about it.

This one is 20 years old, and this one is 29 years old.

Even if Carmon likes the youthful feeling,

the youthful feeling will obviously
be attracted to Nana.

Especially after seeing
the three of them play basketball.

Brother Hao will think, great!

Let Carmon know that youthfulness
is not for her.

When did Brother Hao suddenly become
so scheming?

Brother Hao.

Okay, let's watch the next segment.

[panelist] He is taller than the refrigerator.

[panelist] That's too tall.

[panelist] Carmon.

-Hi.
-Hello.

I am your new roommate. My name
is Sun Shirui.

You can call me Didi.

Okay.

My name is Carmon.

Carmon?

Carmon.

Is it English?

Yes.

Carmon.

Have you met anyone else here?

I met a girl in the afternoon, Nana.

Nana.

Oh right, I brought food to eat with Nana.

Do you want to eat together?

Okay, I haven't yet.

Okay.

Is Nana upstairs?

I think so.

So, should I go call her?

I'll divide the food first.
Then I'll call her.

Okay.

So what do you do?

I am a student.

A student.

What year?

2000.

I am also a basketball player.

Basketball player?

Okay.

Just, a bit tall.

You are tall. How tall?

190 cm.

Okay.

Let's divide it.

Okay.

You look really young.

So everyone calls me Didi.

Okay.

What year do you think I am?

I think you're just a little
older than me.

Okay.

You are correct.

Come here, I'll teach you how we use
the blackboard.

Okay.

If we have some activities for the day,
we write them here.

My head is so tired, wait a minute.

So...

You were saying?

[panelist] Last time she was also the one who taught the newcomer right?

[panelist] Brother Hao.

You can erase the face, and then erase
the words on top

and write your own name.

Do I need to draw myself?

Yes.

How to draw?

Just add a few lines.
Your hairstyle is already similar.

That's it?

Okay.

Then you write your name.

Okay.

D-I-D-I.

[panelist] Didi feels so naive to me.

[panelist] I think that bed is too small for him.
He won't fit.

[panelist] It's a tight fit.

Hi.

Hi.

I am your new roommate.

Hello.

I am Wang Tianqi.

My name is Sun Shirui. I am a college student.

You are a college student. Nice.

I'm unpacking, it's a bit messy.

Why are your clothes in plastic bags?

It's easy to separate. It's a habit from
when I was little.

Sweats are together, and jerseys
are together.

It's more convenient to grab.

When did you come?

Around noon.

Noon? Did you meet anyone?
Was anyone home?

I met two people, two girls.

When I came at noon,
I saw the balcony on the second floor.

I went up to take look and saw Nana.

Nana.

The scenario was like this,
her hair was wet.

It was so awkward.

A bit awkward.

Then I played basketball with her
in the afternoon.

Who, Nana?

Nana.

Then we talked for a while.

Her personality seems pretty good.

Very lively.

Very lively.

How did you feel? Any attraction?

Actually I kind of like her,
she's my type.

[panelist] "Actually I kind of like her."

Amazing!

This is the scene I most wanted
to happen!

Sure. That's nice.

She loves baked sweet potatoes.

If you have time, you should
buy her some.

The ones they sell on
the street?

Correct.

The ones the old
men sell?

That they put in those--

That's right.

So I've never dated anyone.

For real?

Yes really. I've never dated anyone.

I can't explain it.

You know? I've just never dated at all.
That type... I can't explain it.

This youth is too inexperienced.

Too youthful.

What bad intentions can Didi have?

Didi.

-So we found the youthful guy?
-Correct.

That's kind of lame.

Wang Tianqi is too much.

-Do you have work today?
-Yes, I'm leaving after breakfast.

Normally, do you like to exercise?

Not really.

Not at all?

I can play games with balls,
like ping pong and badminton.

But I'm not very good at either.

Have you been to classes that
involve dancing? Or like those--

I have.

What kind of dancing?

I like the male idol group
routines.

Boy groups?

The ones where the beat is faster
and there are a lot of moves.

It's easy to to forget the moves
too sometimes.

Have you ever filmed any?

I haven't, but I was going to
film one soon.

I find it pretty interesting.

Looking forward to your dance video.

Good morning.

Morning.

Look at the difference.

Carmon was so happy when she was
chatting with Didi.

As soon as Hao walked in, her
face changed.

They didn't fight. Why is it
like this?

-She refused him.
-Rejected him.

How can you it not be awkward
for her?

It's alright.

When you're working, what do you
usually work on?

Really busy?

I'm still working on my own
brand right now.

I'll keep working on improving
my products.

And I'll also work on event planning
and the like.

Are you both going out today?

I'll be in class.

Carmon?

I'm also going to work.

When you're designing, are you more
focused on appearance?

Or quality?

We need both.

The vision of the product and the
details are both necessary.

We basically have to think about
every aspect of it.

That sounds pretty complicated.

I'm just giving you an overview of
it all.

I hear you two talking about design
right?

Why are you so interested in design?

My school has a design course.

And some other topics.

But I don't know much about it.

I wasn't very interested before.

It's about that time.
I'm going to head out.

Going to class.

-Bye.
-Bye.

I'm about done too.

I want to talk to you about something.

I feel like it's a little...
awkward between us.

But, that's not the state I
want us to be in.

Also, these past few days, since
Didi has moved in

I've interacted with him and I can
feel he has a lot of

enthusiasm and youthful energy.

And I can see what you meant

when we talked in the park.

It's ok though. I think they are
very enthusiastic.

I also really want to be able to
have that kind of energy.

For..for us?

No worries, you should go to work.

Okay.

Don't be awkward, ok?

So I'm going to head out
to work now.

-See you tonight.
-See you tonight.

Hold on

I'll clean it up.

Don't worry about it.

Okay, thank you.

Bye bye

More on this youthful
energy.

We've found another example of
youthful energy.

It's eating and leaving
your dishes.

That's youthful energy.

Just now when they were eating breakfast.

He said "I'm leaving for class" and
just left his plate.

Then when Hao and Carmon talked about
not being awkward.

Hao said, "you go ahead, I'll clean it up."

Does maturity mean you are
ignored?

Does maturity mean cleaning
dishes?

Maturity is often taken for granted!

Don't be the mature one.
So no one can let you down!

But this also shows, in my opinion
how girls,

after they mature, know they
should pick mature ones too.

When a girl matures, she also
learns not to be the mature one

so she's not the one ignored.

Because you think too much for
the other person.

Just like Carmon did with Binshen.
Same situation.

You take care of everything for him,
so he just leaves his dishes.

You act like his big sister,
and treats you like one.

In the short term, it feels like
being the mature one

means being the one who is ignored.

But in the long run, the mature
ones live a more content life.

-It's better.
-Is Hao content?

He wants to date this girl so
right now, he's not content.

He won't always be trying to date her.

Let's get Haos weChat
for you?

Why do you want to give me every
guys weChat?

He's afraid you're not content.

I feel like you can make him content.

He's afraid of you will be let down
and thinks you need a guy like Hao.

Okay fine.

Feel free to connect me with any
of the guys except Didi.

Why not Didi?
Just like that, Didi's out?

He's younger than my brother,
so I can't handle that.

Like you can't picture it.

Let us watch what happens next.

[panelist] We're in the theater.

[panelist] Is this the audition?

[panelist] Correct.

I'm excited about this audition part.

The weather is really nice today,
Uncle Jiang.

This missing person flyer.
Did you really post it?

Really?

It's the first time I've met someone
who's posted a missing person flyer.

The Mr. Han who comes to visit
you?

Does Mrs. Jiang know about this?

But...

Okay you can come in.

Okay.

Please come in.

Welcome!

[panelist] This is Lai Shengchuan’s wife,
Ding Naizhu.

Hello teacher.

Hello

Hello teacher Ding.
Hello teacher Yang.

Why don't you introduce yourself?

Okay.

My name is Chu Mengna.
I'm 22 years old.

I'm studying at Donghua University
majoring in Film and TV performance.

I'm a third year student.

How long have you
been studying acting?

-Just the three years in college.
-For three years.

Correct. I'm in my third year now.

Did you memorize all the lines?
Good.

Ok, you can begin.

Okay.

Try to relax.

-Ok.
-Relax.
-Okay.

If you go into this industry in the

future, you may have to
audition often.

It's a part of the job.

-Alright. Try it out.
-Okay.

Can I start from outside the door?

-Yes you can.
-Okay.

You can pick what is most
comfortable for you. Okay?

Alright.

-Teacher Yang, is that okay?
-Yes.

I can do this!

You're awake. Did you sleep well?

You already have a newspaper?

Here Uncle Jiang, it's time to
take your medicine.

This red pill again...

The weather is nice today,
we should go for a walk.

Taking this medicine is very good
for your health.

The weather is really good today.

The weather is pretty nice today.

Heard from a friend that you have
returned to Taiwan.

Please contact me as soon as you
see this notice.

Jiangbin Liu, Ward 1120
Chang Gung Hospital

Who is she to you?

Can you tell me?

It must not be an ordinary
relationship, right?

What happened?

You can tell me.

How old are you?

Eighteen.

Then you won't understand.

You didn't even explain.
How would I understand?

Just tell me.

Once you tell me, I'll understand.

Just tell me.

I said you won't understand...

Why are you acting this way?

Then why did you wait until today
to look for her?

I asked my old neighbor, Han,
to go back to our hometo--

--hometown and ask about her.

The Mr. Han who comes here often?

Do you think she will come after
seeing it in the newspaper?

It's been so long already, I
think she definitely wo--

She will definitely come.

Because that's what she should
do!

Am I right?

Thank you. Thank you teachers.

No problem.

I think I forgot a small part, right?

-Yes.
-I'm sorry.

Thank you. Thank you teachers

I heard you saw this play
in the theater. Right?

I did.

We're here because Chen Jianbin.
Teacher Chen [panelist]

called me and mentioned that
you like acting very much.

That you have a dream to
embark on this path in the future.

When I heard, I was touched.

We are grateful for all theater
lovers.

Also, I think you have potential.

You exceeded my expectations.

-Of course there were a few areas--
-Yes.

that need to be polished.

You'll need to work on them
when working with other actors.

It's a normal process.

So I think if you continue to study
and work hard,

you have a promising future in
this industry.

Thank you!
Thank you teacher.

Thank you.

-You can do it.
-Thank you teachers.

Thank you.

Great. Bye.

Thank you.

[pandelist] This is such good news.

[panelist] These few words are so
important to her.

[panelist] So very important.

Round of applause for Teacher Chen.

Teacher Chen!

Let's also applaud Teacher Lai
and Teacher Ding.

And Teacher Naizhu.

These words from Teacher Ding,
for a young actor,

are so important.

I think even if Nana doesn't
get this role, these words

will probably last her ten years.

Agreed.

When she can't sleep at night,
or experiences hardship,

when her teacher scolds her,
she has these words.

Yes.

Especially in this setting when
you aren't receiving recognition yet.

Words of approval from someone
influential in the industry is a

vitally important type of motivation.

I think Teacher Chen really
gave her a surprise.

Yes.

He gave Nana a surprise from heaven.

I mean, do you know how wonderful you are?

Teacher Chen, can you critique her
audition?

Do you think she is qualified?

I think it was pretty good.

I think it was surprising.

Because we see her on screen
and she feels very familiar.

I didn't expect to believe that
she was that character

and not the Nana we know.

Also, she's never rehearsed before.

Correct.

She went to try out and went straight
into acting with the other actors.

If she rehearses and gets some pointers
from, for example, Teacher Lai,

I think she can play this character well.

That's really great.

More words of praise that she can
hold onto.

Teacher Chen just gave his approval.

Well then, I think Nana is very good and
has lots of potential.

My words aren't worth a dime,
but here you go.

Like a comment from the audience.

Yes, the audience. Very good.

Watching her act reminded me
of something.

I was in a musical once, I was a
supporting actress, the B part.

Right.

The role was easily replaceable.

The lead actress was on stage and
I was standing in a corner off-stage.

I looked into a mirror and knew
that I wasn't as good as the lead.

I knew that in my heart, but I also
wanted to stand on stage.

The day of the performance,
I had so few lines and

while I was standing off stage, I
was hit on the forehead by a prop.

There was a big bump on my forehead,
filled with blood.

I was scared and started crying, but
I still went on stage.

At that time, no one knew my name.

People only knew that I had the B
role in this musical.

When my small part was over, there was no
applause for me.

No one was like,
"Zeng Keni, I love you!"

No one knew who I was.

But I just felt so lucky, so happy.

I realized I liked being on a stage.

So your gratitude made you feel
lucky.

I think you said it so well.

I recall my own opportunities.

I guess I haven't really had any lucky
breaks.

When I'm working on something, I'm
very much living in the present.

Like when I'm on a talk show,
I only think about how to be on this show.

When that show is over, there's the
next job.

I never felt like there was just one
important opportunity.

Like I have to perform well because this
represents something big for my career.

Not thinking about the long term.
Just--

You just didn't have a dream.

Just not clear about my path,

but I would focus on each performance.

Because I would feel bad if I didn't
do well.

No dream, but a sense of
responsibility.

-That's a good way to handle it.
-Respect

Actually, I think what Yang Li
said is true.

It's only when you look back that you
see your lucky opportunities.

But when moving forward in life, every
day holds important opportunities.

-True.
-Because if you--
-Of course.

Of course.

don't prepare yourself when
an opportunity arrives,

then that wasn't a lucky break.

So if Ziqi looks back, were there
any lucky breaks?

It might've been few years ago
when I participated in a variety show

and sang my song, "Bubble."

After that, people started recognizing
me.

There were a few of those performances
that gave me name recognition.

But actually, looking back on the
day I sang "Bubble,"

it was already the hundredth time
I had sung "Bubble."

For me, at the time, it was nothing
special.

It was what I was doing every day.

A lucky break is persistence.

A lucky break is gratitude.

A lucky break is persistence.

For me, lucky opportunities
are without dreams.

A lucky break is doing well in the moment.

I think I summarized your
experiences well.

Daxun?

I think a key moment for me was
when I was in film school.

I met a director who was casting for
a movie called "Mao Anying."

He let me play the role of "Mao Anqing."

The director was named Liu Yiran.

-Really?
-Really.

I was in college, and they wanted me
because they said I seemed sincere.

Lots of youthful energy.

Clearly you deceived them.

Back then, I never acted in anything
and didn't know how to act.

Actually, I think the director was very
understanding.

One moment that stuck out was a scene

where I had to say goodbye to
my brother.

The train is leaving and
I'm watching it.

As it's leaving, I start chasing it
and crying.

It was that kind of scene.

Then our director gave me a
close-up shot.

-While I had my close-up-
-You ran outside of the frame?

I ran outside of the frame.

At first, I had no idea what was wrong.

Everyone seemed panicked at the time,
but I didn't understand why.

Then the director held the camera
and started following me.

After we finished I apologized
to the director.

I said I didn't know.

But the director said I was
pretty good.

So I feel like in acting, I was
encouraged step by step.

Just little by little, the people
who I met I guess were...

-Gentle.
-Yes, gentle.

They were also firm.
I feel pretty lucky.

Right, so the first TV series I
starred in was called:

"My Beloved Homeland"

It was about this Qian Xuesen and
was directed by Liu Yiran.

So we actually are brothers.

It's fate.

This sentence is finally coming from
Teacher Chen's mouth.

He said it.

So to summarize, a lucky break means
being directed by Liu Yiran.

Alright, let's take a look at the
next part.

[panelist] They're really playing.

That's a miss.

You start, five shots each.

-Let's do three rounds, two to win?
-Sure.

[panelist] Smells like gunpowder.

[panelist] He can't beat him.

-[panelist] He's from CUBA.
-[panelist] A professional.

[panelist] Just end it already.

Again?

One more.

Why don't you start.

Rest a little.

[panelist] His endurance isn't good.

No problem. Go.

Let me shoot one more.

Bro, you're pretty good.

Not at all, amateur style.

I think among basketball fans,
you're pretty good.

Thank you.

Normally, how often do you all
train?

Depends if we're in training
camp.

If we are then we train everyday.

Who just got home?

-Hello there.
-Hello.

You're both dressed as if-

We've been--

Just chatting a bit.

Just shooting the breeze.

Did you guys also play basketball?

-We also-
-What do you mean did we also play?

Because you know, we also played.

Just yesterday.

How did it go? Who won?

Actually I don't even need to ask,
Didi won right?

I just got really lucky today.

A couple of shots I got in on accident,
you know? A small win.

You're too humble.

I barely won.

Here, eat something.
I bought some dessert.

Why did you two suddenly want to
play basketball?

I mean, it's a mutual interest, right?

This afternoon we just wanted to
shoot a match.

Yes, shoot a match.

He can't, I know his playing
ability.

How would you know?

When I played against you, I saw
that your accuracy was terrible.

0 for 3, right?

What 0 for 3...

He played pretty well,
he made a bunch of shots.

I think you made three out
of five right?

You let him off easy.

I didn't.

I was very serious.

Are you picking on him to get your way?
And he's afraid of you?

No no no.
Why would I pick on him?

Did you buy these desserts today
to celebrate?

Or is there just happy news?
Share it with us.

I told Tianqi the other day.

You know. I told you about it.

-Nope, I don't know.
-You do know!

Don't know.

Such a terrible brain.

Today I went to...it was kind of
an audition.

Then...not sure if you're familiar,
do you watch plays normally?

Occasionally.

Right, so there's this incredible
teacher named Lai Shengchuan.

Then out of the blue, I get a call
from him.

Then he asked me to go in for an audition
and I went today.

Then it was so great, especially because
I got to meet Teacher Ding Naizhu.

She's one of the producers in charge
right now.

So it feels like an industry giant, right?

Yes. She's super impressive.

Then they let me try acting a part today.

Do you remember which role I said
I was trying out for?

Don't remember.

Don't play dumb.

I just don't know.

Forget it, I won't tell you.
I'll tell Didi.

-Then?
-Then they had me try a scene,
from this play.

Coincidentally, we saw it together
so he knows, he just won't say.

I went to try out for the role of a
young nurse.

Then you know who acted with me?
It's an actor who's also amazing.

He's acting with me
in the audition.

This actor, who is officially
performing on stage right now,

to act alongside me.

Do you know what that means?

You are a trainee and he has the
part, right?

Correct.

That's pretty good.

He's already amazing, like a
polished actor.

And I'm just a student, you know.

It's the feeling that I'm fulfilling
a dream.

Actually your experience today is similar
to my own situation.

[panelist] He found another similarity!

Because playing for CUBA has
been a dream of mine.

But last year when I first joined
the team, I wasn't optimistic about it.

Actually this past year has been-

You two keep talking, I'm done eating.

Have one more.

No.

What happened?

Your foot hurts?

Gonna rest a little.

You squeezed him out of the
conversation.

Tianqi had nothing else to say.

Tell me how that could have
continued.

Why did he suddenly get angry?

Is he jealous?

Tianqi is always looking to be
coddled.

This is what he wants.
He just wants to be angry.

Either a little fight now or later.

He just wants that dynamic.
He wants the result.

Like, I just want it this way.

Is that stimulating?

I need to have you, Nana, coddle
me.

Yes.

Don't connect with others.

Yes. Coddle me.

Like me!

I need this other boy to see that this
girl is coddling me.

When I get up, she has to follow me.

And that the chat is over, right?

Correct.

So what if you played
basketball?

In the end, she has to coddle me!

So how will this scene develop?

Maybe Nana will coddle him.

He'll then be very happy.
As if nothing happened.

We don't know.

Let's take a guess.

Ok, Shanghai Share Life,
see you next time!
