you'll be recruited by professional

teams or sports universities.

Otherwise, you join the police

or become a bodyguard.

Myself, I'm now a stunt

coordinator for films.

I came here with a film crew.

If you have time, come

and visit me on the set.

Can we come tomorrow?

No problem, tell the crew member

that you're looking for me.

The food is ready now.

Let me help you to set the table.

Change it after the meal, okay?

I'll have to change it sooner or later.

Look!

Up... More

Excuse me.

Where is he?

Forget the wire, take it.

So cool!

Look, he's the stunt

coordinator of this film.

He told me that...

In his work he can really

use what he learnt at school.

That means any of us

can be the next Jet Li.

We've learnt martial

arts for ten years, right?

Stop dreaming!

Quiet!

All departments, ready.

Stunt team ready?

Ready...

Stand by Roll camera

Action!

Nan, Nan, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Really?

What's the matter, don't

you trust my years of training?

I'm not scared, I'm a martial artist!

Pig Head.

This job is my choice.

Years ago, a film company was

scouting for talent at the school.

I was so proud to be chosen.

Nan, if we want to

join the film industry...

Well, the company is

recruiting at the moment.

If you are interested,

come for an audition.

Sir...

Where is the next shot?

Shing, go set the wire.

You guys hang out, I'll

come get you when we wrap.

Don't touch the props.

Sure.

Nan, take care.

Kuo Nan.

You are...

He Le.

It's you! What are you doing here?

After studying together all those years,

we just lost contact! So

you became a businessman.

Since this film company

is giving me a chance

I don't want to let it go.

Can you help me?

Come on!

In school, you were

always better than I was.

So what? I still got expelled.

We were both young at that time.

Forget it, let's not talk about that.

I haven't heard of the

director or film company

that you just mentioned.

As for a pair of twins,

I think there are a

pair at the wushu school.

Really? That's great.

Can you contact them for me?

I worry that... well

considering what happened...

I'll do it for you. Is it urgent?

Yes, very urgent.

Okay, I'll go tomorrow.

Come on, enough talking, let's drink!

Come on! I'm really tired.

Dad

Dad, you should be quicker next time

Are you sure you still

want to do that move?

Well...

How is it coming along?

I haven't succeeded yet.

Have you thought of doing another move?

Fine, so, continue.

If you don't succeed

tomorrow, try again next year.

Dad, is there anything to eat?

Let me cook you some noodles, okay?

Great, dad, make it a big bowl.

Okay. Put some cucumber.

I don't think dad

wants me to do that move.

But if you can do it, you'll

get the gold medal for sure.

But if I lose, I am afraid

that Dad would get angry.

If he does get angry,

then I'll tell him that...

we both witnessed him

throwing his spear, and dropping it.

He picked it up, threw it again

and dropped it again, and again and again.

He can't even do it himself. That

would stop him from telling us off.

Where are our competition outfits?

Here come the noodles.

Here are your outfits.

Hang them up. I'll go cook the noodles.

Yi, your outfit.

We are at the most important

part of today's competition.

The four semi-final contestants will

draw to determine their opponent.

The two winners will compete in the finals

to decide who will represent the school

to compete for a place

in the provincial team.

Start!

Reveal.

Good. The first fight

will begin immediately.

How could you have picked each other?

What are we going to do?

How did I end up picking Zhang?

How could I have picked you?

There is only one explanation...

fate.

Think about it, even

if I picked Han and won

and Er fights Thomas and wins as well.

In the end, I would

still have to fight Er.

On the other hand, if

I had picked Thomas...

The green team competition begins now.

Begin.

Continue.

See?

I would have been the one on the floor!

And if I got thrown off the stage twice,

I would have been eliminated.

Er, listen to me.

Normally I'm always listen to you, right?

Good, in the finals, you fight Thomas.

Then Jin Wu Men still has a chance to win.

Red team get ready.

Begin.

Do you really want to see me

kicked off the stage by Thomas?

Fight me!

Go on.

Begin.

Zhang, I...

It's okay.

Go for it!

What are you two doing here?

How did the competition go for you?

As fate has it,

I picked Li Er in the draw.

Congratulations!

It's okay, you can try again next year.

This is my destiny chosen by fate.

I have my own plans.

Where is Yi?

He was here just now.

Come here, I have a secret to show you.

What secret?

When Thomas was fighting Han...

I recorded everything for you. Look...

Relax, Fong got in the

finals with the highest score.

Nan, I got into the finals!

Nan, I didn't get into the finals!

So we're going to be

working together now.

Nan, do you need anyone for your film?

Sure, let me have a think...

Thanks, Nan.

There's a film crew looking for

twins that can do martial arts.

Really?

Big Ox, Little Ox, come over here.

Nan needs two kids who

are good at martial arts,

can you do it?

Sure.

What do you think?

Great, we'll go tomorrow. Okay.

Nan, I want to go too.

What are you up to?

I just want to have a look.

I have to go now. Congratulations.

See you tomorrow. See you.

Bye!

The school tryouts for the

Provincial team starts now.

The next contestant is Yang Yaowu.

He will be competing

in the sword category.

The headmaster wants to see you!

He scored the highest marks!

He's great!

You are in the finals! Congratulations!

Sure!

Yaowu

Napoleon finally meets his Waterloo.

I think, the three of us are like

the 3 generals for the 3 kingdoms.

All the best.

The next contestant is Yuen Chung,

he is competing in the staff category

The last contestant is Li Yi.

He is competing in the spear category.

Don't worry,

the top five all get into the finals.

That's not the problem

You're still determined to do that move?

Have you ever thought

of choosing another move?

Dad, I am sorry.

I just want to perform mom's move well.

It's okay, you've

still got into the finals.

The score here won't

be counted in the finals.

I'm sorry.

Li Yi

Keep it.

What's this?

Come on, you got into the finals anyway.

Where is Fong?

Fong?

Where is Fong?

She was summoned by the headmaster.

This happens to old folk.

Just remember your mother

needs to rest and not work.

Don't worry.

We're all looking for

you, what's happened?

Nothing, just something happened at home.

Tell me and maybe we can help you.

It's okay. I'll see you tonight.

Don't worry

I will be there soon.

Go back, you don't need

to see me to the door.

I don't want to start any gossip.

Yee, I need to talk to you.

Something's happened at

home and I need to talk.

Considering what happened

my family can't pay

my school fees anymore.

In fact, I should try to
