1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,700
Is this really your final project?

2
00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:02,880
On May 20? Are you sure?

3
00:00:02,900 --> 00:00:03,133
Hmm.

4
00:00:03,133 --> 00:00:04,593
Of course.

5
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:05,280
It's been

6
00:00:05,900 --> 00:00:07,680
so damn long since I made any money.

7
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:08,433
I want to make money.

8
00:00:08,433 --> 00:00:10,353
I've lost patience with this play.

9
00:00:10,367 --> 00:00:12,033
How long will this drag on?

10
00:00:12,033 --> 00:00:12,953
'Despairing joy,'

11
00:00:13,113 --> 00:00:13,953
'resolve on the verge of collapse'—

12
00:00:13,953 --> 00:00:14,633
What are these words?

13
00:00:14,913 --> 00:00:15,953
How the hell do I act this?

14
00:00:15,967 --> 00:00:17,927
He must have his own ideas.

15
00:00:18,633 --> 00:00:19,793
Don't overthink it.

16
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,040
Hurry, you scared me to death!

17
00:00:22,140 --> 00:00:23,950
The knocking is so damn fierce!

18
00:00:23,967 --> 00:00:24,833
Director, is that your friend?

19
00:00:24,833 --> 00:00:26,233
Isn't today a private rehearsal?

20
00:00:26,233 --> 00:00:27,503
Are we filming on a deadline,

21
00:00:27,563 --> 00:00:29,500
or hanging out with friends?

22
00:00:29,500 --> 00:00:30,780
Why did you invite friends?

23
00:00:30,900 --> 00:00:32,020
What friends?

24
00:00:32,033 --> 00:00:32,993
Isn't this your friend?

25
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,233
Yes, isn't this your friend?

26
00:00:34,233 --> 00:00:36,153
Xu Lili, can you be serious?

27
00:00:36,273 --> 00:00:36,993
I am serious.

28
00:00:36,993 --> 00:00:38,033
Whose friend is here now?

29
00:00:38,033 --> 00:00:39,963
Act Four.

30
00:00:39,967 --> 00:00:41,833
Act Four, Moon, okay?

31
00:00:41,833 --> 00:00:42,393
Ah, okay.

32
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,633
Fine. Say action and we'll start.

33
00:00:45,633 --> 00:00:45,763
Okay.

34
00:00:46,467 --> 00:00:47,257
Has it started?

35
00:00:47,267 --> 00:00:47,427
Yes.

36
00:00:47,433 --> 00:00:48,353
One, two, three, action.

37
00:00:48,367 --> 00:00:49,437
I want to get involved now

38
00:00:49,437 --> 00:00:50,817
because I believe in you.

39
00:00:51,057 --> 00:00:53,897
And you said this play is very important to you.

40
00:00:53,900 --> 00:00:55,980
That's why I want to help.

41
00:00:55,990 --> 00:00:56,980
Do you understand this point?

42
00:00:56,990 --> 00:00:58,930
I understand completely.

43
00:00:58,940 --> 00:01:00,660
Let's be more specific now.

44
00:01:00,740 --> 00:01:03,770
For example, Liao Wei,

45
00:01:03,820 --> 00:01:06,940
If you think you can help her

46
00:01:07,620 --> 00:01:08,530
go further,

47
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:10,740
then let's work toward that together.

48
00:01:10,767 --> 00:01:12,007
I have no problem at all.

49
00:01:12,087 --> 00:01:14,167
If there's time on Saturday,

50
00:01:14,167 --> 00:01:15,887
we can rehearse one-on-one.

51
00:01:16,327 --> 00:01:16,687
Uh-huh.

52
00:01:17,087 --> 00:01:17,767
Ah, okay.

53
00:01:17,767 --> 00:01:18,527
Do you really understand?

54
00:01:18,533 --> 00:01:19,573
I stayed out of it before,

55
00:01:20,133 --> 00:01:23,373
because I thought it was none of my business.

56
00:01:23,493 --> 00:01:25,053
But I could see the chaos.

57
00:01:25,293 --> 00:01:26,293
Do you think it's chaotic?

58
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:27,800
It is indeed very chaotic.

59
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:28,560
I admit it.

60
00:01:28,567 --> 00:01:29,637
For me,

61
00:01:29,727 --> 00:01:31,317
within all this chaos,

62
00:01:31,333 --> 00:01:33,693
My biggest responsibility is to record it.

63
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:34,860
I'm documenting it.

64
00:01:35,540 --> 00:01:37,060
And if, while documenting,

65
00:01:37,767 --> 00:01:40,007
If I intervene,

66
00:01:40,007 --> 00:01:40,967
and become the one

67
00:01:41,667 --> 00:01:43,033
responsible for keeping things safe,

68
00:01:43,033 --> 00:01:45,844
I'd put all this chaos in order.

69
00:01:45,993 --> 00:01:50,414
Once it became something tightly organized,

70
00:01:51,100 --> 00:01:51,933
the whole thing

71
00:01:51,933 --> 00:01:52,413
would

72
00:01:53,100 --> 00:01:54,620
go somewhere else.

73
00:01:54,690 --> 00:01:55,500
It would become

74
00:01:55,500 --> 00:01:56,860
the kind of thing

75
00:01:57,020 --> 00:01:59,020
successful people do.

76
00:01:59,033 --> 00:02:00,443
But I am a

77
00:02:01,133 --> 00:02:02,333
believer in humanity's surrender.

78
00:02:03,033 --> 00:02:04,673
I don't want to do those things.

79
00:02:04,700 --> 00:02:06,540
I am responsible for humanity.

80
00:02:07,233 --> 00:02:08,367
So I must

81
00:02:08,367 --> 00:02:08,667
Surrender.

82
00:02:09,367 --> 00:02:10,927
I must fail completely.

83
00:02:11,447 --> 00:02:14,900
I have to stay with the chaos to the end.

84
00:02:14,900 --> 00:02:15,240
Of course,

85
00:02:15,933 --> 00:02:16,493
once

86
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,840
this production is finished,

87
00:02:20,533 --> 00:02:20,973
then

88
00:02:21,667 --> 00:02:24,147
the end really will be the end.

89
00:02:24,167 --> 00:02:26,567
Yes, this is my last breath.

90
00:02:26,567 --> 00:02:27,487
Last breath,

91
00:02:27,807 --> 00:02:29,047
I hope you use the correct words.

92
00:02:29,087 --> 00:02:29,967
It's the last breath.

93
00:02:29,977 --> 00:02:31,167
It's what you really want to say.

94
00:02:31,167 --> 00:02:34,367
I will stick to this to the end.

95
00:02:34,807 --> 00:02:35,033
Mm.

96
00:02:35,033 --> 00:02:35,953
Failure, surrender.

97
00:02:35,967 --> 00:02:36,427
Fail completely.

98
00:02:36,537 --> 00:02:37,127
Chaos.

99
00:02:37,133 --> 00:02:37,893
Yes, fail completely,

100
00:02:37,893 --> 00:02:39,133
Then surrender, right?

101
00:02:39,133 --> 00:02:39,813
It's something

102
00:02:40,333 --> 00:02:43,693
completely opposed to what you've described.
