Episode 30 recap: Controversy Surrounding Director You.
During interviews with members of the Wan Chun Society, everyone felt that happiness was necessary. However, when they saw Director You's serious expression, they found it difficult to continue speaking and couldn't help but burst into laughter. Upon seeing them laughing, the positive filming atmosphere was disrupted, and Director You felt uncomfortable. Xu Xiaoqian quickly apologized to Director You, but he felt that something was off. Lu Zhi Fei thought their responses were fine.
Everyone thought they were doing well, but Director You felt that they hadn't given their answers much thought. He felt that sometimes people laugh for a reason, perhaps as a mockery of the unsuccessful, a release of tension and frustration, or a way to conceal their own flaws. He believed that laughter like that was an instinctual response.
Xu Xiaoqian understood it as if they should suppress their laughter even if they felt like laughing. Director You felt they were just there, laughing happily, without a trace of seriousness. He was there to make a film, so he became angry and left. Lu Zhi Fei complained that Director You was still so serious during the interview, despite being friends. Wan Xia informed everyone that this time Director You was making a documentary, which might even be shown in cinemas.
Xu Xiaoqian regretted ruining her dreams like this. After discussing it, they all agreed that this time they must cooperate well with Director You. Xu Xiaoqian wanted Wan Xia to apologize to Director You properly because, at the beginning, they didn't know what was going on, and they still valued this opportunity. Sister Chun, upon seeing Director You barging in, angrily drove him away. Director You felt that Sister Chun's eyes held sincerity that should be captured on film.
When everyone saw Director You, they were happy and apologized to him. Director You also felt a bit guilty. He knew his behavior the previous day was wrong, and he shouldn't have lost his temper with everyone.
Pei Zhi Jie admitted that they were also at fault, and Director You wanted to sincerely make this documentary. Everyone enthusiastically assured Director You that they would cooperate well with him in filming the documentary.
Xu Xiaoqian felt that they should start now, as everyone attached great importance to this shoot. She wanted to change into a lab coat, but Director You felt that yesterday's approach was off, and today he wanted to conduct interviews one by one. Pei Zhi Jie, accustomed to holding a fan, entertained Director You with a comic dialogue. Director You felt that Pei Zhi Jie should talk about his own experiences, but Pei Zhi Jie felt uncomfortable looking at Director You.
Director You interviewed many people. He felt that Lu Zhi Fei was eating throughout the interview, which was not suitable. Wang Bo was a bit too casual. Xu Xiaoqian was still excited about Director You interviewing her, but she never expected Director You to leave directly. Everyone fell into deep thought and had a shadow in their hearts. Xu Xiaoqian, however, was looking forward to being interviewed by Director You, but he had already left. Xu Xiaoqian went to find Director You and noticed that there was no light in his eyes.
Director You mentioned that he had wanted to make a comedy film three years ago, but until now, he hadn't completed a single one. Xu Xiaoqian comforted and helped Director You take photos, hoping to inspire him during their comic dialogue. Director You was genuinely amused by their comedy, and this time it came from the heart. Director You thanked everyone for bringing him joy and felt that he needed to approach their filming in a new way.
Xu Xiaoqian saw everyone getting ready, feeling that this time he had fought for it himself. Everyone eagerly watched the film, but to their surprise, only Sister Chun appeared in it. Others felt disappointed, and Xu Xiaoqian was particularly heartbroken.
