My Worst Nightmare Page #4

earn some money to help them.

I want to go to the audition with Zhang.

With my skills, I should be

able to get some stunt work.

I think I can make it.

Fong, you looking for Yi?

Yi, Fong is here for you.

Fong, you want to join us for dinner?

I need to talk to you.

Dad, don't wait for

me, have dinner first.

Let's go.

I thought we would go to a

sports university together.

Yes, but I didn't

know what options I had.

Isn't there another way?

My family has financial problems,

I don't want to add to it.

Remember what Miss Zhang

said when we were young?

Actually, God is fair to all of us.

You'll all have to make

choices in your life.

The most important thing is

how you make those choices

One day, as you grow older

you'll truly understand yourself.

That's the day you'll

know how to choose.

I thought that once I grew up

I'd know how to make the right choice.

But in reality

the choices are limited.

Dad.

They are here for you.

They're there.

Nan

So, you want to be a stuntman?

Well, I think I

shouldn't waste my talent.

I... This is Yee, this is Fong.

Hello Nan.

They all want to...

Nan, don't underestimate Fong...

she's in the school team...

...and she's in the finals

for the provincial team tryout.

Something's happened in her family

so she really needs the job.

Calm down, speak slowly.

I saw her perform on open day.

I can tell she's worked hard.

We happen to be looking for

a double for the lead actress.

I'll ask my assistant to

organize an audition for you.

Thank you.

Yes, Nan?

Take them to Ah De

and arrange an audition

- for this girl, Fong.

- Okay.

Okay, go inside now.

Thank you.

See you.

This looks better

You can wait here. You come with me.

Good luck!

De, this girl's recommended

by Nan, her name is Fong.

Please wait here.

Excuse me

You can start now.

De, I just can't do it.

This is the stunt double

that Nan recommended.

Why don't we give her a try?

So you're Nan's friend?

De, I am sorry.

Never mind, try again another time.

Thanks.

Here.

Go over there and wait

until I tell you to start.

Try your best and relax.

Thanks.

Fong, you can start now.

Okay.

Not bad!

Our film needs talent like that.

Wah, prepare a contract for her.

Come here.

Thank you. When do I start working?

The crew will leave

for Dunhuang next week.

Dunhuang?

How long will she stay there?

Around 4 months.

But she has to apply for

the Sports University.

Is there a problem?

No, no problem.

Nan

You two must listen to Nan, got it?

Okay.

After the audition

- I'll bring them back.

- Okay.

Here comes Er.

Nan...

The guy doing the audition was

also a student at your school.

In fact he was one of your

father's merit students.

Really?

Remember when we looked

through those old photographes?

You asked me who he was.

I want to go with you.

Yaowu, you come with us too.

I haven't got as much

time as you to spare.

Nan, I'll pick them up this evening.

Sure.

See you. Bye.

Let's go.

Le, you're on time

Will these kids do?

Get in...

This is Li Er, he's a

student at the school too.

He just wants to tag a long, okay?

Sure! Welcome.

Let's go

Director, we are on the way now.

Is everything alright?

It's good, and I'm bringing

you one more wushu expert.

One more? What happened?

He is a student from my old

school, he just wants to hang out.

Maybe you can find something

for him in the film.

Coming from the wushu

school, he must be good.

That's it.

One more guest will be coming

Be on alert.

Director.

This is the director.

This is my old classmate.

The famous fight choreographer, Kuo Nan.

How do you do?

Nice to meet you.

Wait.

Aren't you a top student

at the martial arts school?

Now, I'll give you... and

him one more chance.

After 30 seconds if you

can't remain standing,

you can imagine...

that hammer...

cracking open his head.

Start.

Ten seconds.

Twenty seconds.

Thirty seconds.

Stop.

I am still standing.

Nan, you've got an amazing friend.

Let him go.

But just for now.

Mister Li, is Li Er here?

It's very early, what's up?

Er and I took the twins to

meet Nan for an audition.

But the twins haven't come back yet.

What are you talking about?

Er!

Are you sure it's him?

I didn't see him, but Nan said,

It was this He Le who asked him

to take the twins to the audition.

Let me ask around.

What happened yesterday?

He's involved with that stuff now?

Do you know where he is now?

All right. Thank you.

Mister Li, is something wrong?

Should we call the police?

Not yet, we don't even

know if anything is wrong.

But now I know where they are.

Let's go then.

Go.

This guy now runs

underground boxing matches.

My guess is for the past ten

years his life has been shady.

I'll going inside, you

two wait for me here.

Dad...

I'll be fine, just stay put

Hello, is the manager here?

Yes?

Sir, who are you looking for?

He Le, he's an old friend.

I think you've made a mistake,

we don't have a He Le here.

I'm sorry, my friend

must've made a mistake.

I'm sorry to have bothered you

Mister Li...

Mister Li, it's been a long time!

He Le, it's been ten years.

Right, and my name is

now He Ping not He Le

Mister Li, this way please.

This was the van they left in yesterday.

The twins are down there.

How about my brother?

The school has certainly

grown considerably.

And you're a famous teacher

with many star pupils.

We all choose our own paths.

You seem to be doing well.

You are a boss now and

I am still a teacher.

If I didn't leave the school,

I may not have taken this road.

Not everyone gets to

make their own choices.

Come and give us a hand.

Down there.

Remember Kuo Nan? I heard

that he's back in town.

Kuo Nan, I remember him.

Did he visit you?

No.

But you two were good friends,

you're bound to meet up.

If so, ask him to visit me.

And you should come as well.

Sure, if I see him, I'll grab him...

and pay you a visit.

That's great.

I have to go now.

I won't see you to the door.

Dad, Er is tied up over there.

He Le, what's wrong with you?

Where is your conscience?

You've stooped so low

as to kidnapping children?

You're old, even your legs are shorter.

Dad.

Don't come over. Rescue the others.

Brother!

Yii!

Dad and I are here to rescue you.

Where's dad?

Dad!

Where is Nan?

He's unconscious.

When was the last time we

saw you sitting so quietly?

Yi, look, dad's sitting

quietly like a child now.

Right, he's like a child now.

Are you happy to see me like this?

How else can we make you slow down?

Just take it as a holiday.

You think I can have a holiday?

Who will look after them?

Sit down.

Mister Li.

Miss Zhang.

You're too kind, you

didn't need to bring a gift?

Mister Li, are you feeling better?

I'm fine, thank you.

Do you want me to do a

somersault to prove it?

Fong, look at dad, doesn't

he remind you of a young child?

It time for them to start

making their own choices.

You should give them some space.
