1 00:01:58 Jinx Chen!
2 00:02:00 It's Jing Chen!
3 00:02:02 Watch your pronunciation.
4 00:02:04 Jinx Chen
5 00:02:07 Can you please cooperate and liven up a little?
6 00:02:10 Dude
7 00:02:14 How can I liven it up?
8 00:02:17 There's a fight!
9 00:02:19 It's folk music versus classical music!
10 00:02:23 Let's go help!
11 00:02:24 He won't get out of here alive!
12 00:02:33 What's going on?
13 00:02:35 That kid
14 00:02:41 Power Cellist: Folk music kids
15 00:02:42 #FolkMusic #StreetMusicianOnBridge
16 00:02:43 I'LL GIVE YOU A REAL POKE
17 00:02:48 Say it!
18 00:02:49 Folk music rules!
19 00:02:57 Let's go back.
20 00:02:59 Come on
21 00:03:04 MUSIC IS THE GREATEST
22 00:03:46 Hey
23 00:03:49 You have drool on your face.
24 00:04:15 I'm trying to practice here!
25 00:04:18 Don't make me hurt you!
26 00:05:01 RULES FOR STUDENTS: DEPARTMENTS MUST PRACTICE IN THEIR OWN AREAS
27 00:05:03 NO FIGHTING NO MIXING OF PRACTICE ROOMS
28 00:05:05 NO EATING AND DRINKING PLEASE FOLLOW THE RULES OF PRACTICE HALL
29 00:05:07 FROM THE OFFICE OF ACADEMIC AFFAIRS
30 00:05:11 Jinx
31 00:05:15 You should try to put it out of your mind.
32 00:05:17 How? Where should I put it?
33 00:05:19 In a bank? Can it accumulate interest?
34 00:05:34 In all of our years at the school
35 00:05:37 have you heard of any dating rumors between classical and folk music people?
36 00:05:39 None whatsoever!
37 00:05:40 Classical kids think we're bumpkins. We think they're snobs.
38 00:05:44 The two departments are like Romeo and Juliet's families.
39 00:05:47 We're sworn enemies.
40 00:05:51 Do you think a simple metal gate can stop my love?
41 00:05:54 Plus
42 00:05:57 We're all guilty for violating the rules
43 00:05:59 but we're the only ones who got segregated.
44 00:06:02 What is this? Discrimination?
45 00:06:11 I'm helping Jing Chen with the water. She can't carry it by herself.
46 00:06:18 Why does it smell like meat in here?
47 00:06:23 That's what he smells like. He must've bathed himself in lard.
48 00:06:33 No eating in the practice room.
49 00:06:35 Okay.
50 00:06:49 They always check up on the folk music practice rooms
51 00:06:51 as if we're always up to no good.
52 00:06:53 They never check up on the classical music's practice rooms.
53 00:06:57 You're so heartless and conscienceless
54 00:07:00 you must weigh next to nothing?
55 00:07:03 Don't block the windows!
56 00:07:07 Would you like some?
57 00:07:12 Xiao Sun
58 00:07:15 has been accepted by the Curtis Institute of Music in the U.S.
59 00:07:18 Let's give him a round of applause.
60 00:07:23 Xiao Sun has paved a bright future for his music career.
61 00:07:30 Meanwhile
62 00:07:35 Right now
63 00:07:38 Jing Chen
64 00:07:42 and You Li
65 00:07:46 These two students desecrated the sacred practice room
66 00:07:50 by using the water cooler as a hotpot.
67 00:07:55 They abused school property
68 00:07:59 The water cooler as a hotpot?
69 00:08:02 I'll post a tutorial in our group chat later.
70 00:08:05 Nice.
71 00:08:12 Hello
72 00:08:13 Our orchestra is performing at Zhongshan Hall this week.
73 00:08:17 Our senior pianist
74 00:08:21 None of us can do it for him.
75 00:08:23 Can anyone from folk music lend a hand?
76 00:08:26 Lunch is provided.
77 00:08:28 So
78 00:08:29 We can earn more by moving bricks for half a day.
79 00:08:31 What makes you think us folk music kids would do it?
80 00:08:34 I'll go! What's the date? Time? Attire?
81 00:08:49 -Sorry. -Watch where you're going!
82 00:08:50 So sorry.
83 00:08:52 What's a folk music kid doing here?
84 00:08:54 She's a page-turner.
85 00:08:56 I need to tune properly.
86 00:08:57 Even if she doesn't open her mouth
87 00:09:06 May I sit here?
88 00:09:08 My violin is worth a fortune.
89 00:09:10 Is it worth more than me?
90 00:09:12 It is.
91 00:09:18 ZHONGSHAN MUSIC HALL
92 00:09:45 And now
93 00:09:49 with Wen Wang on the piano.
94 00:11:12 Turn the page.
95 00:11:20 See you later
96 00:11:25 Wen Wang!
97 00:11:34 Hey!
98 00:11:38 What are you doing?
99 00:11:41 I like you.
100 00:11:45 What's your name?
101 00:11:46 My name is Jing Chen. I'm a sophomore.
102 00:11:49 You're a year below me?
103 00:11:51 -What do you study? -Yangqin.
104 00:11:55 That's an instrument?
105 00:11:57 Huh?
106 00:12:00 Of course
107 00:12:02 I'm going abroad next year.
108 00:12:04 My behavior here affects my standing with the school abroad.
109 00:12:06 We've never crossed paths before. Please just leave me alone.
110 00:12:09 Wen Wang!
111 00:12:11 The bus is leaving. Let's go.
112 00:12:18 Your emotional interpretation sounded different on the second movement today.
113 00:12:22 You noticed?
114 00:12:29 Hey
115 00:12:31 Why are you still here? The bus is leaving.
116 00:12:53 What's a yangqin?
117 00:12:55 It's a traditional Chinese string instrument
118 00:12:57 introduced to China from Persia
119 00:13:00 It shares the same roots as the piano.
120 00:13:03 Same roots!
121 00:13:05 Theoretically
122 00:13:08 You've been grumbling all afternoon.
123 00:13:10 I have to practice.
124 00:13:15 Give me a smoke.
125 00:13:16 I've suffered a romantic setback. I want to be bad.
126 00:13:27 He's a musician
127 00:13:30 What gives him the right to mock me and say I'm a bumpkin?
128 00:13:38 It's so unfair.
129 00:13:40 Greaves
130 00:13:44 What kind?
131 00:13:46 The kind that will help me get back on my feet
132 00:13:48 forget the past
133 00:13:50 I want to take my scars with me and start anew.
134 00:14:12 Greaves...
135 00:14:14 I understand now.
136 00:14:23 Out of my way.
137 00:14:31 I'll get on stage.
138 00:14:32 I'll make sure Wen Wang remembers what a yangqin is!
139 00:14:50 You want to join the school's folk music ensemble?
140 00:14:54 Didn't you attend the department meeting this week?
141 00:14:58 So you were there physically
142 00:15:01 The ensemble's been disbanded.
143 00:15:03 Why would you want to join?
144 00:15:06 Even if it wasn't disbanded
145 00:15:09 the quality of our ensemble is embarrassing.
146 00:15:13 Forget the concert hall
147 00:15:14 it's not even good enough for public square dancers.
148 00:15:17 Why don't we start an ensemble?
149 00:15:19 We'll con some younger kids into joining.
150 00:15:26 WE WANT YOU! YOU! YOU!
151 00:15:29 College entrance exams are a year away.
152 00:15:31 If I don't bust my butt studying now
153 00:15:33 This is my performing schedule this month.
154 00:15:36 I'm not trying to show off
155 00:15:38 Don't spend so much time making money. We're in the prime of our youth.
156 00:15:41 If we get caught up planning for the future
157 00:15:42 how can we live in the present? Trust me.
158 00:15:45 Jing Chen
159 00:15:49 When you speak
160 00:15:54 Hey! I didn't even make fun of your so-called instrument!
161 00:15:56 How dare you!
162 00:16:11 I want to set sail into a new world
163 00:16:14 but I've got no crew.
164 00:16:16 You have me.
165 00:16:20 A Tang drum percussionist and a yangqin player.
166 00:16:23 What kind of a band is that?
167 00:16:26 There's no soul.
168 00:16:33 There's one last resort.
169 00:16:35 Speak.
170 00:16:36 These kids don't study or have part-time jobs.
171 00:16:42 Have you forgotten about that dormitory?
172 00:16:48 Dorm 502.
173 00:16:50 They're all folk music students.
174 00:16:53 They may be folk music students
175 00:16:56 but I don't think they're even human.
176 00:16:59 This is as far as I can accompany you
177 00:17:03 They may be freshmen
178 00:17:06 Don't be afraid
179 00:17:11 What does that mean?
180 00:17:12 They love everything ACG.
181 00:17:15 Animation
182 00:17:18 That's all they're into. Nothing else.
183 00:17:21 How do you know all that?
184 00:17:24 I'm a learned man.
185 00:17:27 HUMANS STAY AWAY
186 00:17:54 -I'll take them from the left. -Ha!
187 00:17:56 Get them off from the back.
188 00:18:05 Excuse me.
189 00:18:07 I DON'T KNOW YOU
190 00:18:12 DON'T SPEAK TO ME
191 00:18:15 That's Sakura. She doesn't like to talk.
192 00:18:19 You don't hate talking
193 00:18:21 Talking can help you lose weight.
194 00:18:23 I hear you can burn 33.5 calories by talking for an hour.
195 00:18:28 I'm Jing Chen. I'm a sophomore
196 00:18:31 What are your names?
197 00:18:35 I'm Beibei-chan.
198 00:18:37 I'm Tata-chan.
199 00:18:40 I've only ever had strawberry and peanut butter jam.
200 00:18:46 What do you want with us?
201 00:18:49 Do you want to join--
202 00:19:05 You!
203 00:19:06 Do you want to exit through the door or the window?
204 00:19:25 SHUT THE DOOR ON YOUR WAY OUT
205 00:19:33 If they reject you
206 00:19:44 Garage kit.
207 00:19:50 Keep talking.
208 00:19:53 If you're willing to join
209 00:19:54 I'll buy each of you an original garage kit figure of your choosing.
210 00:20:02 And I'll throw in a year of Internet fees.
211 00:20:04 Keep talking.
212 00:20:06 Isn't that enough?
213 00:20:12 A garage kit figure per week?
214 00:20:30 Welcome
215 00:20:48 Put your phones down for a moment.
216 00:20:50 Let's communicate like human beings.
217 00:20:59 Who's this guy?
218 00:21:02 I'm You Li. I'm the percussionist.
219 00:21:04 My secretary.
220 00:21:09 Why don't we come up with a name for our band?
221 00:21:13 It took me all night last night to come up with two names.
222 00:21:15 Number one
223 00:21:16 The Magical Cacophony.
224 00:21:18 Doesn't it have a powerful punch?
225 00:21:28 No problem.
226 00:21:29 Goddesses of Folk Music...
227 00:21:34 How's that? It's East meets West.
228 00:21:37 Good for all ages.
229 00:21:42 What about me?
230 00:21:46 Do you have any suggestion?
231 00:21:49 -2.5 Dimension. -What does that mean?
232 00:21:52 We're elites from the second dimension.
233 00:21:54 You and that guy represent the third dimension.
234 00:21:57 -As in
235 00:21:59 We're 2.5 Dimension.
236 00:22:02 Why don't we just call it Close Encounters with the Ghostly Kind?
237 00:22:09 Don't leave.
238 00:22:11 It's a peaceful society! We can talk things out!
239 00:22:13 2.5 Dimension.
240 00:22:18 Not bad.
241 00:22:23 Anyway
242 00:22:26 I've already sent you the link to the garage kit figure for this week.
243 00:22:30 No problem.
244 00:22:31 You spent all night coming up with band names
245 00:22:35 and you didn't take any time to figure out where we can practice?
246 00:22:44 Sir
247 00:22:46 See how sincere I am?
248 00:22:48 It's useless to beg me. Get a note from the department staff.
249 00:22:50 If you have a note
250 00:22:52 We really need a practice hall.
251 00:22:53 You don't have a show lined up. Why do you need it?
252 00:22:55 -We want to form an ensemble. -To make money?
253 00:22:57 -No. -Forget it.
254 00:22:58 You need to study and make up for classes.
255 00:23:01 Get prepared for the college entrance exams.
256 00:23:02 Stop wasting your time.
257 00:23:05 Sir
258 00:23:07 We're creating a future for ourselves.
259 00:23:11 Think of it on the bright side.
260 00:23:13 I think practicing outdoors will help us become one with the world.
261 00:23:19 Then let's think about our first single.
262 00:23:25 Who said you can use this place?
263 00:23:27 This is our turf.
264 00:23:28 Did you ask for permission?
265 00:23:31 We have to get a note for this place
266 00:24:15 PRACTICE HALL
267 00:24:26 I'll give it another shot.
268 00:24:50 How did it go?
269 00:24:51 Classical music finishes their practice at 9:00 p.m. each night.
270 00:24:54 The guard will secretly let us use the practice hall for an hour.
271 00:24:56 The teachers won't be around at that time anyway.
272 00:24:59 Good work
273 00:25:02 I simply talked to him sincerely
274 00:25:04 but the guard has one demand.
275 00:25:08 I'll tell you about it later.
276 00:25:10 Hey.
277 00:25:12 You promised Dorm 502 one garage kit figure per week?
278 00:25:16 -Yeah. -Are you a rich heiress?
279 00:25:20 I know my elegance implies I am
280 00:25:27 Do you know how much a garage kit figure costs?
281 00:25:29 How expensive can it be? It's just a doll.
282 00:25:32 I can just buy a bunch at the temple fair
283 00:25:36 Didn't they send you the link?
284 00:25:39 Please open your eyes and take a good look.
285 00:25:51 RMB 765
286 00:26:01 It's not too late to change your mind.
287 00:26:05 They took my student ID.
288 00:26:07 They said if I renege on my promise
289 00:26:11 that will say my student ID was found in the men's room.
290 00:26:21 My guess is
291 00:26:24 this is all you can afford to eat for the rest of your life.
292 00:26:31 This place is eerie.
293 00:26:34 It's scary.
294 00:26:36 My friends
295 00:26:39 So let's skip the formalities and rock on.
296 00:26:44 Should we choose a song then? I have a suggestion.
297 00:26:48 There's a famous yangqin piece called "The General's Order."
298 00:26:50 It's splendid. I want to have our band play it.
299 00:26:53 I don't know it. I've never played it.
300 00:26:58 You can learn.
301 00:27:00 Learning a new piece takes me at least two weeks.
302 00:27:10 I can't wait that long.
303 00:27:12 There are only a few ensemble pieces for folk music.
304 00:27:14 There are even fewer contemporary songs. No one's writing them anymore.
305 00:27:16 What about "The Spring Festival Overture"?
306 00:27:18 That's too old-school.
307 00:27:20 Everyone knows it. We can get into it right away.
308 00:27:23 It's cheaper for you.
309 00:28:02 My dear musicians
310 00:28:04 it's time to live up to your promise.
311 00:28:05 You get to practice for 40 minutes.
312 00:28:08 For the remaining 20 minutes
313 00:28:13 Now...
314 00:28:14 I'll get started.
315 00:28:31 "We're not performing music here.
316 00:28:34 We're marching soldiers of music.
317 00:28:37 We cut down giant whales and fight bravely against savages."
318 00:28:42 Who writes this kind of stuff in their diary?
319 00:28:45 It's true. You're certainly not performing music.
320 00:28:47 You're just accompaniment players.
321 00:28:49 Let's see
322 00:28:52 -There's more? -"April 2
323 00:28:55 Spring inevitably invokes woe in me. I sing softly with a lover by my side."
324 00:29:01 It's really disgusting.
325 00:29:04 What are you doing that's so fun? Can I play?
326 00:29:08 What do you want?
327 00:29:10 I want...
328 00:29:13 to talk reason.
329 00:29:14 Hey!
330 00:29:20 We are all teenagers. We all have things that we cherish.
331 00:29:24 What's so funny about it?
332 00:29:27 She writes what she cares about in her diary
333 00:29:32 while you put it in the instrument case.
334 00:29:36 If you can take someone else's stuff without permission and make fun of it
335 00:29:41 then I can take what you cherish
336 00:29:45 and have fun with it?
337 00:29:56 Apologize to her!
338 00:30:02 Violence cannot stop violence.
339 00:30:05 However...
340 00:30:12 I need to teach you girls a lesson
341 00:30:13 to treat others the way you would like to be treated.
342 00:30:20 Sorry.
343 00:30:24 I'm sorry.
344 00:30:37 Sakura!
345 00:30:41 Are you okay?
346 00:30:56 She doesn't talk because of them?
347 00:31:05 You artists are too nice.
348 00:31:08 From now on
349 00:31:10 to kill our enemies.
350 00:31:18 YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY ME A GARAGE KIT
351 00:31:28 Whose ring is this?
352 00:31:35 Lord of a Thousand Fingers! You're Lord of a Thousand Fingers!
353 00:31:54 I kneel for you
354 00:32:00 I've been a fan for the longest time
355 00:32:03 I can't believe it's you.
356 00:32:05 I leave comments on all of your videos.
357 00:32:09 What did you write?
358 00:32:11 Say it.
359 00:32:12 I was mainly trolling.
360 00:32:18 Aren't you guys going to kneel?
361 00:32:19 -We've known all along. -We sometimes play accompaniment for her.
362 00:32:23 I want to join
363 00:32:27 I want to join
364 00:32:28 That song you just played
365 00:32:33 Do you know the name of that song?
366 00:32:39 It's an ancient style piece.
367 00:32:41 Have you heard of ancient style music?
368 00:32:48 What did you get on your history midterm exam?
369 00:32:53 I got 66 out of 100.
370 00:32:54 Not only is it a passing grade
371 00:32:58 You don't know a thing about our music.
372 00:33:01 It's just a song.
373 00:33:01 I'm not that bad. My hands can move as fast as yours.
374 00:33:05 In order to play ancient style music well
375 00:33:07 Xiao-mai has read Chinese history multiple times.
376 00:33:09 She's a history buff.
377 00:33:12 Elite school students have nothing on her!
378 00:33:14 Beibei and I have been studying ancient Chinese texts.
379 00:33:16 Our hope is to write the most amazing lyrics for Xiao-mai.
380 00:33:20 Sakura has been studying the history of Chinese folk music instruments
381 00:33:23 from Xia
382 00:33:25 She knows the evolution of every instrument.
383 00:33:28 We love folk music. We love the second dimension.
384 00:33:31 We love ancient style music.
385 00:33:33 Those are the things I care about.
386 00:33:36 You don't know a thing about us. There's no way I'd let you join us.
387 00:33:39 Lord of Thousand Fingers
388 00:33:41 I've been living in the second dimension
389 00:33:43 I was simply too embarrassed to admit it. I have an A in history class.
390 00:33:46 I've read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" four times.
391 00:33:47 That song was called "World Domination."
392 00:33:49 There's a Spring and Autumn Period version and a Three Kingdoms version.
393 00:33:50 I even know there's a new version about tomb raiding.
394 00:33:52 I'm a history geek.
395 00:33:56 IGNORANT HUMANS OF THE THIRD DIMENSION
396 00:33:57 LONG LIVE THE SECOND DIMENSION
397 00:34:00 May I join you now?
398 00:34:02 You traitor!
399 00:34:04 You're...
400 00:34:07 too ugly.
401 00:34:14 Didn't you know?
402 00:34:16 -In the second dimension-- -Looks are everything.
403 00:35:22 ROAR
404 00:35:34 Do they make it into the fortress?
405 00:35:42 DEATH UPON THOSE WHO GIVE SPOILERS
406 00:36:22 Flowers blossom on Mount Nan Moss grow on the fences
407 00:36:27 Flowers blossom Covering the mountain every spring
408 00:36:33 Grass overrun faraway plains Willow catkins dance in the wind
409 00:36:38 Grass grows in the field every year
410 00:36:45 The spring I've been waiting for Arrives at last
411 00:36:51 Spring has come
412 00:36:57 The blooms I've been waiting for Arrive at last
413 00:37:02 Blooms have arrived
414 00:37:09 Beautiful bride akin to flowers
415 00:37:12 Years flow by like water
416 00:37:19 Ancient style song "Grass in the Field
417 00:37:21 adapted from "Interrupted Dream
418 00:37:23 Not bad
419 00:37:26 I know all the references.
420 00:37:28 May I have my membership card now?
421 00:37:30 You're out of tune.
422 00:37:38 Years flow by like water
423 00:37:41 An embrace
424 00:37:47 An embrace
425 00:37:53 An embrace
426 00:38:02 Oh
427 00:38:05 I love to sing
428 00:38:06 but I never got the chance when I was young.
429 00:38:08 Thank you
430 00:38:12 Don't be so formal with us. We're glad you're pleased.
431 00:38:15 What an unforgettable night!
432 00:38:16 Truly unforgettable.
433 00:38:24 So...
434 00:38:26 there's an ACG convention next week. They've invited me to perform.
435 00:38:28 That's great! We'll be there.
436 00:38:30 Do you need help?
437 00:38:33 Don't we have our own ensemble now?
438 00:38:36 Why don't we perform together?
439 00:38:39 What was that
440 00:38:46 If you don't want to go
441 00:38:54 ACG convention! We're going to perform at the ACG convention!
442 00:38:56 What's an ACG convention?
443 00:39:03 2016 ACG FESTIVAL
444 00:39:28 Here we are!
445 00:39:31 Hi!
446 00:39:33 Let's go. Hurry!
447 00:39:38 You two make a great couple.
448 00:39:41 You can take your wedding photos in those outfits.
449 00:39:44 Aren't we going on stage?
450 00:39:45 We borrowed the outfits from the folk music department.
451 00:39:49 I know this isn't the most suitable outfit for the occasion.
452 00:39:52 It's all Jing Chen's--
453 00:40:15 Seven-Colored Islands Showered in sunlight
454 00:40:19 Effortless smiles
455 00:40:22 Long hair flowing Bursting with joy
456 00:40:26 Be birds of freedom
457 00:40:29 Running side by side Arms wide open for embrace
458 00:40:34 Breeze dancing upon the face
459 00:40:37 From now on
460 00:40:41 This is a declaration of youth
461 00:40:45 Thanks for your applause and support
462 00:40:49 Thanks for making my heart throb Moving me beyond words
463 00:40:53 Thanks for standing by me
464 00:40:57 You never abandoned me You never doubted me
465 00:41:00 You're my dearest friend
466 00:41:04 When love is the thing I need the most
467 00:41:08 We make a vow With the touch of our fingers
468 00:41:14 To continue our journey together
469 00:41:44 Thank you S.I.N.G. for that wonderful performance.
470 00:41:51 Up next is the 2.5-Dimension Ensemble.
471 00:41:56 On the guzheng is the Internet celebrity
472 00:42:01 Lord of a Thousand Fingers!
473 00:42:03 What? Folk music?
474 00:42:05 Let's welcome them!
475 00:42:10 What are they wearing?
476 00:42:12 Are they channeling the May Fourth Movement?
477 00:42:15 Why are we subjected to this at an ACG convention?
478 00:42:17 Bring S.I.N.G. back on stage!
479 00:42:20 Folk music reminds me of the temple.
480 00:42:46 LORD OF A THOUSAND FINGERS
481 00:42:54 Wait.
482 00:43:00 Seriously?
483 00:43:02 Hey
484 00:43:48 LORD OF A THOUSAND FINGERS
485 00:44:25 BEING WEAK AND SMALL IS FINE BECAUSE WE HAVE FRIENDS BY OUR SIDE
486 00:45:26 Lord of a Thousand Fingers! Can I have your autograph?
487 00:45:31 Excuse me! What was that instrument you were playing?
488 00:45:33 -I want to learn it. -Me
489 00:45:37 It's called a yangqin.
490 00:45:57 Wow! That's Jing Chen! She's awesome!
491 00:46:14 -Come and take a look. -What's up?
492 00:46:17 She's amazing!
493 00:46:23 Now
494 00:46:27 Poem title
495 00:46:29 "Heed not the sounds of tree-rattling and leaf-rustling
496 00:46:31 Why not whistle and chant while strolling leisurely"
497 00:46:34 This is a very important poem. So memorize it.
498 00:46:43 "A straw cloak is my shield in life Biting spring breeze sobers up my mind"
499 00:47:08 -Greaves! -What?
500 00:47:12 I plan to drive home the victory.
501 00:47:16 Don't be too impulsive.
502 00:47:19 Just watch.
503 00:47:20 I've already consulted with Beibei and Tata
504 00:47:22 on the best tactics girls comics have to offer.
505 00:47:24 You consulted them? But--
506 00:47:28 But can you trust them?
507 00:47:30 The comics they read are cheesy and silly as hell.
508 00:47:46 IT'S MAKE OR BREAK THIS TIME
509 00:47:47 LEAVE IT TO US
510 00:47:54 ALL DONE
511 00:48:24 DO YOU KNOW WHAT A YANGQIN IS NOW
512 00:48:26 Even a folk musician has fallen for you? Wen Wang
513 00:48:33 Get lost
514 00:48:36 Let's go.
515 00:48:41 Wen Wang!
516 00:48:54 Let's take a picture!
517 00:48:57 -It's beautiful! -So pretty!
518 00:49:03 -She's gone nuts again. -Right?
519 00:49:09 You guys must have egged her on.
520 00:49:24 The folk musician girl is confessing her love!
521 00:49:26 That's right.
522 00:49:35 Wen Wang!
523 00:49:38 I'm really fond of you!
524 00:49:47 I have answered the question you asked me last time.
525 00:49:51 Do you have anything else to say?
526 00:49:54 If not...
527 00:49:56 -then let's-- -I do.
528 00:50:03 I have a problem.
529 00:50:05 The problem is
530 00:50:13 You want a romantic relationship. I want to study abroad.
531 00:50:15 We don't even know each other.
532 00:50:17 Don't sabotage my life
533 00:50:19 What's all this about?
534 00:50:20 Even for a folk musician
535 00:50:23 What's wrong with being a folk musician?
536 00:50:26 Get out of here before I say something even worse.
537 00:50:29 I'm not like you guys.
538 00:50:31 I have my limits.
539 00:50:33 Hey! What's that supposed to mean?
540 00:50:34 What's wrong with being a folk musician?
541 00:50:35 At least Jing Chen has the guts to confess her love.
542 00:50:37 You're craven. All you care about is your future.
543 00:50:38 Get off of your high horse already!
544 00:50:40 Would a real gentleman hurt a little girl like this?
545 00:50:46 Hey! Don't be so mean!
546 00:50:48 The problem is with you folk musicians!
547 00:50:51 Instead of practicing
548 00:50:55 Shut up
549 00:50:56 Grab your weapons! Let's fight!
550 00:50:58 Protect Jing Chen!
551 00:50:59 We aren't scared of you! Protect Wen Wang!
552 00:51:03 Are you happy now?
553 00:51:20 Don't.
554 00:51:24 -What was in it? -Turpentine.
555 00:51:26 For cleaning the instruments.
556 00:51:29 Get out of the way!
557 00:51:44 Do you know what a yangqin is
558 00:51:46 The yangqin was introduced from Persia into China during the Ming Dynasty.
559 00:51:48 It shares the same roots as the piano.
560 00:51:49 The first piano was invented in Germany in 1709
561 00:51:52 but the yangqin has been played in China for over 400 years!
562 00:51:55 For over 400 years! Who are you to look down on her?
563 00:52:03 Have you truly listened to folk music?
564 00:52:06 Do you know anything about its history?
565 00:52:08 If it's so terrible
566 00:52:09 why do you think we'd spend so many years to learn it?
567 00:52:13 When you go abroad
568 00:52:14 don't you want to tell foreigners how great our own music is?
569 00:52:19 You can tell them
570 00:52:20 because you happen to like it!
571 00:52:23 Isn't it cooler to say that to their face?
572 00:52:30 Hey!
573 00:52:35 When you look back to your 17-year-old self
574 00:52:38 you'll definitely have more regrets than we do.
575 00:53:26 Thank you
576 00:53:32 We're disbanding?
577 00:53:36 We're done.
578 00:53:37 Wen Wang knows what a yangqin is now
579 00:53:41 I'm content now.
580 00:53:43 You're so easily content.
581 00:53:48 That's one of my best qualities.
582 00:53:50 I always know when to quit while I'm ahead.
583 00:53:53 That wasn't a compliment!
584 00:53:54 Don't you think it's a shame to disband?
585 00:53:56 We've worked so hard to become a team.
586 00:54:01 We can still play together. Let's play something else.
587 00:54:04 Forget about this band.
588 00:54:06 Your garage kit figures are too expensive.
589 00:54:08 I was about to complain to the consumer protection bureau.
590 00:54:10 What if we don't ask for the garage kit figures?
591 00:54:13 Then what are you doing it for?
592 00:54:14 I formed the band for Wen Wang. You guys came for the garage kit figures.
593 00:54:18 Why stay together if our objectives are all gone?
594 00:54:22 I like playing the guzheng.
595 00:54:24 -We like playing our instrument
596 00:54:33 If you don't like the yangqin
597 00:54:35 why did you bother learning it for so many years?
598 00:54:38 My mom asked me to
599 00:54:40 I'm just easy-going like that.
600 00:54:45 What about you?
601 00:54:46 Do you want out
602 00:54:48 I--
603 00:54:49 Well--
604 00:54:51 I've been wanting to tell you guys.
605 00:54:54 My family wants me to study abroad.
606 00:55:05 Traitor!
607 00:55:07 That's right.
608 00:55:08 You're a traitor.
609 00:55:11 -I meant you
610 00:55:16 -Is it that serious? -It is.
611 00:55:19 You treat everything too lightly.
612 00:55:22 It's one thing for others to belittle folk music
613 00:55:24 but you belittle it
614 00:55:25 You're content with trying something new for a minute.
615 00:55:27 You're so halfhearted about everything!
616 00:55:29 What do you think life is? A product sample?
617 00:55:33 That's right.
618 00:55:35 That's the kind of person I am.
619 00:55:38 I don't know why I fell for a jerk like Wen Wang
620 00:55:42 I don't know why I started learning the yangqin.
621 00:55:44 I just spent so many years on it without questioning.
622 00:55:47 Now you know there are people like me in this world.
623 00:55:54 Go hang out with the likes of you then.
624 00:55:57 So what if I like folk music?
625 00:55:59 You think the handful of us can bring about a music revolution?
626 00:56:01 Where's the glory in doing something that's doomed to fail?
627 00:56:05 Just admit you want it for your own gratification.
628 00:56:07 You're letting all those comics go to your head.
629 00:56:50 -Jinx. -Go away.
630 00:56:53 You're a traitor.
631 00:57:09 HOORAY FOR SUMMER VACATION
632 00:57:51 What are you going to do about your college
633 00:57:56 My destiny is in my hands.
634 00:57:59 Are you going to keep playing erhu? That can't be!
635 00:58:02 You can't make a living with that.
636 00:58:04 Forget it. Don't be upset with her. Let's watch TV.
637 00:58:08 I'M WORKING OVERTIME TONIGHT. GET TAKEOUT. LOCK THE DOORS BEFORE GOING TO BED. MOM.
638 00:58:13 -Sorry
639 00:58:15 You're always late
640 00:58:17 Why are you still dressed like that
641 00:58:20 Do you think you're still 13 years old?
642 00:58:28 Do you know how crazy you look?
643 00:58:30 She likes it. Why don't we just let her be?
644 00:58:34 You've spoilt her rotten!
645 00:58:37 Let's go.
646 00:58:46 Pass the exams!
647 00:58:47 One more time!
648 00:58:49 Pass the exams!
649 00:58:53 And how will you pass the exams?
650 00:58:56 Open our eyes and face our competition!
651 00:58:59 A year of hardship for a life of success!
652 00:59:03 Good! With this level of passion
653 00:59:06 let's open your books.
654 01:00:00 My goodness! You scared me. Okay. It's off.
655 01:00:20 I don't want to play the yangqin anymore.
656 01:00:27 Mom
657 01:00:34 -Say something. -I heard you.
658 01:00:39 What reaction were you expecting? Should I be happy or mad?
659 01:00:43 Weren't you the one who wanted me to play the yangqin?
660 01:00:46 -Who told you that? -Dad.
661 01:00:49 -He did? -Yeah.
662 01:00:51 He was in so much pain that day.
663 01:00:54 He got confused.
664 01:00:56 YEAR 1998
665 01:01:01 Stop screaming! Who's the one having the baby here?
666 01:01:05 -Both of us. -If she won't come out
667 01:01:07 You can't die.
668 01:01:09 We must have this baby.
669 01:01:10 Push harder!
670 01:01:11 Come on.
671 01:01:13 Push.
672 01:01:20 -What's wrong? -You sound terrible!
673 01:01:29 Push.
674 01:01:33 Push!
675 01:01:39 Push!
676 01:01:42 Here she comes!
677 01:01:56 You want to quit playing the yangqin
678 01:02:01 Why not?
679 01:02:03 Because it guided you to this world.
680 01:02:06 It's been in your life for 11 years.
681 01:02:11 You're destined to be together.
682 01:02:14 Now you don't want it anymore
683 01:02:17 but you still have an emotional bond.
684 01:02:21 Talk to your yangqin. If it agrees
685 01:02:24 I won't object.
686 01:02:33 My back to the stars I don't want to make wishes anymore
687 01:02:40 With my cloak on
688 01:02:43 I shall fly on my own
689 01:02:47 I want to be proud of the real me
690 01:02:54 Even if I can only pass by
691 01:02:58 The sky you inhabit in my dreams
692 01:03:05 Love fuels the shimmer
693 01:03:08 There's no need for doubts
694 01:03:11 Time to start anew
695 01:03:14 Regrets mean nothing
696 01:03:18 What will my life gain in the end?
697 01:03:25 As I sing and sing the song of youth
698 01:03:32 The school has started again.
699 01:03:35 It's time to focus on your schoolwork.
700 01:03:39 I have two announcements.
701 01:03:41 First
702 01:03:42 a youth concert for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
703 01:03:45 Students in the classical music department
704 01:03:47 must take this opportunity to make our school proud.
705 01:03:50 Second
706 01:03:54 the high school's folk music department will stop admitting students next year.
707 01:03:59 We made the decision because we want to be responsible to the students.
708 01:04:03 I hope the current folk music students
709 01:04:07 will make the best out of their time here.
710 01:04:13 You'll stop admitting students because it isn't popular?
711 01:04:15 If the school stops teaching it
712 01:04:16 won't it become even less popular?
713 01:04:18 Isn't this a vicious cycle?
714 01:04:20 Please sit down.
715 01:04:22 Perhaps in a few years
716 01:04:23 there won't be a single student of folk music left!
717 01:04:25 Folk music isn't popular and it hasn't got any appeal.
718 01:04:28 Is that something the school can solve alone?
719 01:04:30 -Will you sit down first? -Fine.
720 01:04:33 I want to volunteer to perform at the youth concert.
721 01:04:35 If you won't promote folk music
722 01:04:38 The concert is for ensembles
723 01:04:41 Sit down.
724 01:04:44 -We have an ensemble. -You do?
725 01:04:47 Where is it?
726 01:04:49 -Right here. -Right here.
727 01:04:55 Please! That's no ensemble.
728 01:04:57 You're more like a backing band.
729 01:05:12 Sit down
730 01:05:14 Sir
731 01:05:19 So
732 01:05:22 This performance is about the school's reputation.
733 01:05:25 The school orchestra has been practicing non-stop.
734 01:05:27 Do you think your ragtag ensemble can perform on par with them?
735 01:05:30 Who will shoulder the blame
736 01:05:33 How can we let you ruin the school's collective reputation?
737 01:05:36 You're dismissed!
738 01:05:39 Come on! This is about representing our school.
739 01:05:43 -Why should we let you drag us down? -Shut up already.
740 01:05:47 We've put up with you guys for so long.
741 01:05:48 Who are you to decide if we can perform on stage?
742 01:05:52 Watch your mouth! You're just a bunch of amateurs!
743 01:05:53 Who are you calling amateurs?
744 01:05:54 Our music was passed down by our ancestors.
745 01:05:56 You're learning foreigners' music.
746 01:05:58 Maybe you should go and find a foreigner dad while you're at it!
747 01:06:03 Calm down
748 01:06:06 If we fight here
749 01:06:08 Why should we throw away our bright future for the likes of you?
750 01:06:11 Let's go.
751 01:06:15 Hey!
752 01:06:17 You look down on folk music
753 01:06:19 We can't always resort to fighting.
754 01:06:22 Why don't you pick up your instruments and go head-to-head with us?
755 01:06:25 A music face-off?
756 01:06:27 Any one of us could take you all down
757 01:06:30 What a foul statement! How long has it been since you brushed your teeth?
758 01:06:33 You're just inviting humiliation.
759 01:06:35 -You'll know humiliation when we're done. -Sure.
760 01:06:39 Let's do it.
761 01:06:41 When you lose
762 01:06:46 If you lose
763 01:06:49 and we'll film the whole thing on our phones.
764 01:06:52 -I dare you! -No problem!
765 01:06:54 A bet is a bet.
766 01:06:56 But if you lose
767 01:07:00 How can we possibly lose?
768 01:07:03 Just don't chicken out when the time comes.
769 01:07:06 Why would we chicken out?
770 01:07:07 In the future
771 01:07:18 CHALLENGE: FACE-OFF ON INSPECTION DAY DON'T CHICKEN OUT
772 01:07:19 A declaration of war? Interesting.
773 01:07:21 They're asking for it.
774 01:07:23 Have they lost their minds?
775 01:07:25 -Are they that desperate? -What should we do?
776 01:07:27 Why should we play along?
777 01:07:31 "Let my music be the soundtrack of war."
778 01:07:35 Chopin said that.
779 01:07:41 This is our music building.
780 01:07:43 Around this time of day
781 01:07:47 We're very strict with discipline.
782 01:07:50 Rowdy behavior and crowd gathering are not allowed in the practice rooms.
783 01:07:54 There is a strong sense of artistry.
784 01:07:58 That's right.
785 01:08:02 What's this?
786 01:08:04 The folk music practice area is behind that gate.
787 01:08:07 That's to prevent conflicts between the departments.
788 01:08:10 Is that so?
789 01:08:12 Both sides are practically the same
790 01:08:14 There's virtually no difference. So we can skip that part of the building.
791 01:08:18 Shall we visit the classical music area?
792 01:08:21 Sure.
793 01:09:26 Is this part of the tour?
794 01:09:30 Oh
795 01:09:34 Go back to the practice room.
796 01:09:37 No one came out.
797 01:09:38 I knew it! Their guts are smaller than flea droppings.
798 01:09:43 What do we do?
799 01:09:44 Just wait. I'm sure someone won't be able to hold back.
800 01:09:48 Young lady
801 01:09:53 Musicians can be a bit eccentric.
802 01:09:57 Maybe she's too engrossed in her music.
803 01:13:27 Very good. It's refreshing.
804 01:13:31 It's East meets West.
805 01:13:35 Why would you put up a gate?
806 01:13:37 It's useless.
807 01:13:40 There's no such thing as conflict in music. Am I right?
808 01:13:43 Yes
809 01:13:47 Take down the gate.
810 01:13:49 It's a sanctuary of art.
811 01:13:52 -Why make it look like a prison? -Right. We'll take it down.
812 01:14:04 The inspection concerns our school's reputation.
813 01:14:07 How could you be so reckless?
814 01:14:09 I'm giving you all a verbal citation.
815 01:14:12 Those of you folk music kids
816 01:14:15 I know you're eager to prove yourselves
817 01:14:18 but the school isn't your playground.
818 01:14:23 If you want to prove yourself
819 01:14:28 You're dismissed!
820 01:14:48 My fellow musicians?
821 01:14:50 So...
822 01:14:54 when is the footbridge performance?
823 01:14:59 However
824 01:15:01 -We were so very close. -That's right.
825 01:15:05 Each and every one of you is a worthy opponent.
826 01:15:08 So
827 01:15:29 Did any of you catch that?
828 01:15:31 Our current ensemble is missing an instrument.
829 01:15:37 Chime bells! We're missing chime bells.
830 01:15:40 I can't think of a solution for chime bells right now.
831 01:15:44 Percussionists
832 01:15:48 It won't be perfect
833 01:15:54 I'm sorry
834 01:15:57 I was just going to listen in for fun
835 01:16:01 but I overheard you are missing something
836 01:16:05 so I couldn't help but jump in.
837 01:16:35 This set of chime bells was brought in when the municipal folk music ensemble
838 01:16:40 disbanded 20 years ago.
839 01:16:41 They've sat here ever since. No one's moved them.
840 01:16:44 After all these years
841 01:16:52 Will you guys be able to play them?
842 01:17:32 It's ready!
843 01:17:35 Greaves
844 01:17:36 Veggies!
845 01:17:37 Put some food in.
846 01:17:38 I'm busy.
847 01:17:51 LORD OF A THOUSAND FINGERS NEEDS YOU
848 01:17:52 USE SECOND DIMENSION'S POWER TO AWAKE THE MUNDANE THIRD DIMENSION
849 01:17:55 Lord of a Thousand Fingers has summoned me!
850 01:17:58 Lord of a Thousand Fingers has summoned me!
851 01:18:04 LET FOLK MUSIC ECHO ACROSS NATIONAL CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS
852 01:18:15 -Look here
853 01:18:17 -So pretty. -This one.
854 01:18:18 -Look here. -I want this feather and this skirt.
855 01:18:44 Let's buy it together.
856 01:19:53 Our musical feast is about to begin.
857 01:19:55 I'm sure the kids who are here today will be touched by the magic of music.
858 01:20:00 I believe some of the children here today will be up on this stage someday
859 01:20:05 and carry forward the beautiful melodies.
860 01:20:13 Twinkling and shining like stars
861 01:20:19 We don't know that
862 01:20:25 Those are little fireflies
863 01:20:28 Flying here and there
864 01:20:32 Mom
865 01:20:37 Don't you be like them when you grow up. Eyes front.
866 01:20:58 Each and every one of you is a worthy opponent.
867 01:21:01 It was a nicely fought battle. We were so very close.
868 01:21:06 So
869 01:21:10 Do us a favor.
870 01:21:14 Come on. Hand me your passes.
871 01:21:17 -Here. -Be careful.
872 01:21:19 Keep it safe.
873 01:21:27 They're in your hands now.
874 01:21:29 Let's go.
875 01:21:30 Next is the last performance of the night
876 01:21:37 Please welcome students from the teen orchestra
877 01:21:41 of the Affiliated High School of Zhongxia Music Academy.
878 01:21:43 First-chair pianist
879 01:22:11 Here they come.
880 01:22:33 Hurry!
881 01:22:53 Who are you guys?
882 01:23:19 There's a surprise performance?
883 01:23:21 This isn't in the program.
884 01:23:59 They're ready
885 01:24:21 What's going on? It's a different group.
886 01:24:39 Good luck.
887 01:24:45 Enjoy the show!
888 01:26:02 I suppress the urge to sing The Song of the Great Wind
889 01:26:07 Thinking back to my youthful days
890 01:26:12 The ancestors are wise
891 01:26:19 The valiant always meet a bad end
892 01:28:03 -Let me do it. -Sure!
893 01:30:43 Greaves
894 01:30:45 how much did the mosquitoes pay you to bring me here?
895 01:30:51 I hear fireflies like to gather at this park at night.
896 01:30:55 I love plenty of things. I love celebrities too.
897 01:30:58 Why don't you take me to their house for a visit?
898 01:31:05 Why do you like fireflies?
899 01:31:09 Because fireflies glow.
900 01:31:11 The department chair's head glows
901 01:31:15 Because fireflies are cool.
902 01:31:17 -Are they? -Yes.
903 01:31:20 Fireflies are such tiny creatures.
904 01:31:23 They should be hiding to protect their lives.
905 01:31:28 Instead
906 01:31:35 So I'm a firefly.
907 01:31:40 -Hey
908 01:31:42 I read in a book
909 01:31:44 fireflies glow because they want to attract a mate.
910 01:31:49 Did you get the wrong idea?
911 01:31:56 It's so eerie here. I don't see any fireflies.
912 01:31:59 A ghost might show up instead.
913 01:32:02 All right
914 01:32:05 I have something to tell you.
915 01:32:09 Go ahead.
916 01:32:15 What's wrong? Cat got your tongue?
917 01:32:21 Where's your phone?
918 01:32:25 Check your photos on the social media app.
919 01:32:28 Look closely.
920 01:32:32 What's wrong? They're all selfies.
921 01:32:36 I take selfies because I have confidence in myself.
922 01:32:40 This is me
923 01:32:53 Why did you send so many messages?
924 01:32:58 That's how you look to me.
925 01:33:26 Why don't you say something?
926 01:33:41 Send me the original photos.
927 01:33:59 Why don't you save the photos?
928 01:34:07 It's okay. I don't need to.
929 01:34:11 You can always take more in the future.
930 01:34:30 Let's go.
931 01:34:43 I can't believe we're too late this year.
932 01:34:48 I was hoping to see the fireflies with you.
933 01:34:55 It's never too late!
934 01:34:57 We still have plenty of summers together.
935 01:35:13 Wait. Aren't we moving a little fast?
936 01:35:19 Look!
937 01:36:15 -Are you ready? -Yes.
938 01:36:16 Okay.
939 01:36:58 WELCOME NEW STUDENTS WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF MUSIC
940 01:37:45 Lord of a Thousand Fingers! Sorry.
941 01:37:53 I can't pick it up!
942 01:38:04 Fa-so-la-so
943 01:38:18 Again.
944 01:38:30 I'm laughing alone.
945 01:38:33 All by myself.
