<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\nRehearsal: Stepping on Poo<\/strong><\/p>\n Joanne Tseng and Wang Zi rehearse the scene where Zhong Shao Xi run into some poo after being chased.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Two people holding hands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n Don\u2019t worry. They left already.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to next scene.<\/p>\n YAN LI ZHENG<\/p>\n I discovered nothing good has happened since meeting you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n You\u2019re the one who \u201cdai shuai\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n YAN LI ZHENG<\/p>\n What\u2019s the meaning of \u201cdai shuai\u201d?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n It means when a person\u2019s luck isn\u2019t great it\u2019s like running into poo. (Looks down at the spot where poo should be.) I really ran into poo. (Lifts foot.) I really stood on poo. (Starts trying to wipe it off on the concrete.) Such bad luck!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Yan Li Zheng watches on and starts laughing.<\/p>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n Stop laughing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Zhong Shao Xi tries wiping it off on a plant pot.<\/p>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n It stinks!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Back to trying to get it off on the concrete. Meanwhile Yan Li Zheng is still laughing hard.<\/p>\n Interview: Stepping on Poo<\/strong><\/p>\n Joanne Tseng reveals that she\u2019d find stepping on poo so embarrassing if she was with a guy she liked. Wondering which Wang Zi thought was more embarrassing\u2014stepping on poo or farting\u2014she asks him. Because, you know, if Wang Zi says stepping on poo is fine then there\u2019s nothing to worry about for her character Zhong Shao Xi. Funny stuff watching both Joanne Tseng and Wang Zi being so responsive to each other and laughing at each others’ response.<\/p>\n QUESTION: Is stepping on poo embarrassing?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n I think if I was with a guy I like\u2014<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n (interrupts, predicting Joanne Tseng’s response)<\/p>\n I\u2019d want to die so bad.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n (exasperated)<\/p>\n I really will… I really will go crazy. I would disappear from his life from that point on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The answer has Joanne Tseng doubled over laughing. Wang Zi’s laughing, too.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Is it because of me?…… [poo graphic]<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n Then upon returning home\u2014<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n Is this more embarrassing or farting more embarrassing?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n Farting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n Farting is more embarrassing. Okay. Then that\u2019s okay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Making of fake poo<\/strong><\/p>\n The team try to make fake poo and have it stick to the bottom of the shoe, but they seem to have problems with it staying on. Did they use real poo in the end as Wang Zi devilishly suggests?<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n The making of (poo).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n No need to do that. You just need to twist the plastic bag. Then just dip it. That\u2019ll do.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to Joanne Tseng sitting on the side talking about the fake poo.<\/p>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n Don\u2019t worry, everyone. It\u2019s just chocolate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n It\u2019s 80% chocolate and 20% poo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n (laughs)<\/p>\n There\u2019s 20% poo. It\u2019s still scary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to stepping on the fake poo. Joanne Tseng mentions how painful it is to step on it. She’s also laughing a little at the same time as she tries to step on the fake poo so they can prepare for rehearsal\/filming. For a bit there, we thought maybe the fake poo is quite solid making it hard to step on, but Joanne Tseng said it’s soft (we think it was her who shouted it) so it looks like the pain is in terms of how much she’s suffereing rather than actually being physically painful. If it’s really 80% chocolate and 20%, we’d find it a bit ‘painful’ to deliberately step on poo. Such nice runners and she has to stand on 20% poo. : oO : oO.<\/p>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n Where do I step?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Go half way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Okay. Flatten half way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n So painful~~~<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n It feels like you haven\u2019t stood on it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Wear it down a bit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n It’s soft.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Wear it down a bit. Wear it down a bit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Wear it down a bit then it will stick on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Joanne Tseng grinds her foot as instructed by the crew.<\/p>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n It so painful!!!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n How about I help you press it in?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n Ahhhh~~~~~<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Okay, let me see if it\u2019s on your foot.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n It\u2019s on. It\u2019s on. It\u2019s on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n It has to be on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n Is it sticking more and more?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Yes. Okay. Let\u2019s go.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Wang Zi, appearing from behind the camera, supports Joanne Tseng by the arm and helps her to the location for the shoot. A few steps towards the filming location, the fake poo’s come off.<\/p>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n It\u2019s so painful.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Be careful it doesn\u2019t come off.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n It’s come off.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n It\u2019s come off.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The crew moves to try get the fake poo to stick. By our count, there are two or three crouched down trying to get the poo to stick, with a few more watching on. With the trouble they’re having just to get a bit of poo onto the bottom of Joanne Tseng’s shoe, it’s here Wang Zi jokes about using real poo .<\/p>\n CREW<\/p>\n I\u2019ve finished smearing it for you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n How about stepping on a real one then?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Yan Li Zheng suggested it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n Step on one for real.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Wang Zi)<\/p>\n Devilish mind.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n (walks to film location)<\/p>\n My goodness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Filming: Stepping on Poo<\/strong><\/p>\n The leads are off to film (rehearse?). Zhong Shao Xi tries to wipe off the poo she stood and asks for Yan Li Zheng’s help. He doesn’t and just stands there laughing at her.<\/p>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n Hurry… lend me a hand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Yan Li Zheng backs away from her, laughing. Jump cut.<\/p>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n Help me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Yan Li Zheng)<\/p>\n Can’t stop laughing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to next shot where Zhong Shao Xi asks for Yan Li Zheng’s help in ridding the poo.<\/p>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n Help me find something to get rid of it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Yan Li Zheng’s not going touch that shoe. Still laughing away, he refuses with folded arms, backing away from the shoe she holds up to him.<\/p>\n Interview: Stepping on Poo<\/strong><\/p>\n Joanne Tseng reveals how much she wanted to scream after stepping on poo. (Was it not fake? Did they really take Wang Zi\u2019s suggestion for real?!)<\/p>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n It feels like I’m over it now. I’m not that scared now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n QUESTION: Tips on stepping on poo?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n INTERVIEWER<\/p>\n It was very scary stepping on poo the first time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n Extremely. Did you see my expression? I think it probably shouldn\u2019t have shown through that I wanted to scream ‘ahhhh’. I really wanted to. If it weren\u2019t for the fact a relatively quiet alley was nearby, I think I really would have wanted to scream out loud.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n INTERVIEWER<\/p>\n Where did you wipe it?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Joanne Tseng misses the questions and continues the rest of her thoughts.<\/p>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n The memory of having stood on poo all came rushing back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Filming: Class with Teacher Chuan<\/strong><\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Class with Teacher Chuan<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CREW<\/p>\n Action.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n TEACHER CHUAN<\/p>\n Zhong Shao Xi, did you forget our agreement? Where is your homework?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to Zhong Shao Xi, who’s not paying attention as she’s reading a note.<\/p>\n TEACHER CHUAN<\/p>\n Shao Xi, look at your teacher.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n OFF SCREEN VOICE (TEACHER CHUAN?)<\/p>\n Attention, please.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Interview: Note Passing in Class with Huang Xin Di<\/strong><\/p>\n Interviewer interviews Huang Xin Di (who plays Li Ru Ping in the drama) about the upcoming scene of passing notes and this popular pose where the class frames their chins with a hand.<\/p>\n QUESTION: Is there anything fun?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n HUANG XIN DI<\/p>\n We\u2019re passing notes. That is…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Huang Xin Di’s gaze moves to her actor-classmates.<\/p>\n HUANG XIN DI<\/p>\n Most favourite thing in class is passing notes, isn\u2019t that right? You all love passing notes. They’re all not listening in class and passing notes. We go to class and pass notes at the same time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Huang Xin Di explains the contents of the note her character will be passing:<\/p>\n HUANG XIN DI<\/p>\n I want to ask Xi Xi if she’s seriously finishing her homework.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n INTERVIEWER<\/p>\n What\u2019s this? (He seems to be asking about the hand pose framing the chin.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n HUANG XIN DI<\/p>\n This? (To her actor-classmates) Come. Let\u2019s do this together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Camera zooms out to show her actor-classmates also doing the hand poses.<\/p>\n HUANG XIN DI<\/p>\n This is our hip pose. Isn’t that right? Because… why is it (our pose)? Because it makes our face look small.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Filming: Zhong Shao Xi receiving the note<\/strong><\/p>\n Cut to Zhong Shao Xi trying to pay attention to class before receiving a note, after which is seen to give the hand pose.<\/p>\n TEACHER CHUAN<\/p>\n Let us open to Page 62.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Interview: The story behind the hand pose<\/strong><\/p>\n It looks like the hand pose is one which was very popular back when Joanne Tseng was 12 years old. It makes her laugh thinking that she (as Zhong Xiao Xi) will be using this popular fifth\/sixth grade pose in the drama. Sixteen years since the pose became popular, could it make a come back?<\/p>\n QUESTION: What\u2019s a hip pose at the moment?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n Do you want to know what we\u2019re talking about? A few days ago we were joking about how this pose very popular. Do you know what happened? Fifth and sixth graders were spreading it. Then they talked to the high schoolers and unexpectedly discovered they were throwing around this pose.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Joanne Tseng laughs.<\/p>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n I couldn\u2019t believe it. They said it made the face look small.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n That makes sense.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n QUESTION: What\u2019s a hip pose at the moment?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n JOANNE TSENG<\/p>\n The time this pose came in, I think I was 12. After 16 years, is this making a come back?! (Laughs again.) I\u2019m about to faint. So, in a moment I\u2019ll be using this pose in the drama. I\u2019m not trying to be funny. It really spread.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Rehearsal: In Yan Li Zheng’s classroom<\/strong><\/p>\n Zhong Shao Xi is outside Yan Li Zheng’s classroom, entranced by the sight before her.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Who\u2019s she looking at so captivatingly?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Teacher Xiao Mu Zhi?!..<\/p>\n<\/div>\n We’re made to think it must be Yan Li Zheng (as it was in the drama), but no. It\u2019s Teacher Xiao Mu Zhi. He’s writing a quote on the blackboard, which serves as a backdrop to the scene.<\/p>\n Interview: Introduction to Teacher Xiao Mu Zhi<\/strong><\/p>\n LIU ZHI QIAN<\/p>\n Hello, good friends.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Liu Zhi Qian as Teacher Xiao Mu Zhi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LIU ZHI QIAN<\/p>\n I\u2019m Liu Zhi Qian. Today, I\u2019m playing Teacher Xiao Mu Zhi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Liu Zhi Qian waves his pinky finger, showing that his character\u2019s name, Xiao Mu Zhi, means pinky finger.<\/p>\n INTERVIEWER<\/p>\n He\u2019s the kind of teacher who students hates the most. This is your level. You want to go to a public university. Who do you want to laugh at?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Not quite sure if the above is correct. The interviewer speaks of Liu Zhi Qian in a generalised way, using words like “ni men” (you all) throughout. Not super well-versed in Mandarin, the sentence construction is strange for us.<\/p>\n LIU ZHI QIAN<\/p>\n Correct. I feel a bit embarrassed to even say it with my own mouth. I myself wouldn\u2019t say such things.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Wang Zi makes an appearance, which as Liu Zhi Qian greet him quite happily. The interview has Liu Zhi Qian give his thoughts on Yan Li Zheng.<\/p>\n LIU ZHI QIAN<\/p>\n Wang Zi is here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n (off screen)<\/p>\n Hello, Teacher.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Liu Zhi Qian being greeted by Wang Zi\/Yan Li Zheng)<\/p>\n Happy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n QUESTION: Impression of Yan Li Zheng?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LIU ZHI QIAN<\/p>\n My impression of this student in the drama is I feel he performs pretty true to life. He’s very, very amazing. Later, he turns out to be quite an adorable person as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Pre-filming: Wang Zi’s struggle in memorising the calculus question<\/strong><\/p>\n Wang Zi must remember the calculus question he, as Yan Li Zheng, must write on the blackboard. He struggles a couple times and needs to look it up on his phone. We’re not sure if we’ve translated what Wang Zi says correctly as we’re not familiar with the mathematic terms when spoken in Chinese. According to the what’s written on the blackboard, the section of equation he might be trying to memorise is absolute value of x+2y-2z-1 over \u221a1+4+4. It sounds a bit different to what he reads out on his cellphone, though. A couple of the numbers are different. Maybe he has a slightly different equation on his phone.<\/p>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n I have to write this on the blackboard. I have to memorise it. X+2Y… something minus 1 over 2 minus absolute value 1.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Not remembering what comes next, Wang Zi refers to his cell phone, reciting half the equation off the cellphone before trying to memorise it without looking, all the while talking to the camera.<\/p>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n Then what was it…? D2=2X+Y+2Z-2 absolute value root 4 + 1 + 4.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Wang Zi shakes his head. He’s not managed to get it all memorised.<\/p>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n It’s playing with me… I\u2019m really not doing a good job of being an outstanding student.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Wang Zi goes back to trying to memorise the equation again, doing well up to the same point he had trouble memorising just before.<\/p>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n 2X+Y+2Z-2…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Wang Zi stops and looks at his cellphone again for the rest of the equation.<\/p>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n …root 4 1 4<\/p>\n<\/div>\n INTERVIEWER<\/p>\n Are you speaking a foreign language?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Wang Zi<\/p>\n (laughs)<\/p>\n I\u2019m speaking Chinese.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Jump shot to Wang Zi still trying to learn the equation.<\/p>\n WANG ZI<\/p>\n When memorising, it’s like how can it be so hard to learn. It\u2019s harder to memorise than lines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to filming the scene. We don’t see Wang Zi deliver the lines though.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Expert expert.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Rehearsal: To gift or not gift Zhong Shao Xi the petal on her hair<\/strong><\/p>\n Joanne Tseng and Wang Zi film the scene where Yan Li Zheng ends up picking a petal from Zhong Shao Xi\u2019s hair. The director had two versions of the shot taken as it seems they were undecided on which was more like something Yan Li Zheng would do at the time of filming.<\/p>\n Joanne Tseng and Wang Zi imagine staring at something in the air. An animated mosquito is used to stand in for the thing they’re meant to track.<\/p>\n DIRECTOR (?)<\/p>\n Track it. Look up above a little slower… A little slower.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n It\u2019s actually not a mosquito. It\u2019s a petal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Director is beside Wang Zi and Joanne Tseng, appearing to be running through the scene of where the petal will land on Joanne Tseng’s hair. After which, Wang Zi is to pick it from her hair.<\/p>\n After picking up the petal, Wang Zi delivers his line as Yan Li Zheng:<\/p>\n YAN LI ZHENG<\/p>\n I\u2019m leaving.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Yan Li Zheng gives the pretend petal to Zhong Shao Xi. (This version one that was filmed.)<\/p>\n YAN LI ZHENG<\/p>\n This is for you.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Scene cuts to what looks like Joanne Tseng as Zhong Shao Xi recites Yan Li Zheng’s disappointing actions of giving her nothing:<\/p>\n ZHONG SHAO XI<\/p>\n He slowly stretches out a hand and gives me air (i.e. nothing).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The crew is heard laughing in the background, so maybe Joanne Tseng was joking around?<\/p>\n Actual Live Version<\/strong><\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Actual scene in the filming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Yan Li Zheng notices the petal on Zhong Xiao Xi’s hair.<\/p>\n YAN LI ZHENG<\/p>\n A petal is on your hair.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Yan Li Zheng picks the petal from top of Zhong Shao Xi\u2019s ear and holds on to it.<\/p>\n Cut shot<\/p>\n YAN LI ZHENG<\/p>\n A petal is on your hair.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Yan Li Zheng slowly picks the petal from the top of Zhong Shao Xi’s ear, all the while gazing into her eyes and holds it there for a long while before he announces his leave:<\/p>\n YAN LI ZHENG<\/p>\n I\u2019m leaving.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Blows.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Second version, the version that made it to broadcast, has Yan Li Zheng blow the petal away instead of what we saw in rehearsals where he gave it to her. :oO :oO.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/a><\/div>\n
