正主题思想
失败者满怀刻骨仇恨,不停顿欺诈,加害,报复,造成了巨大债务压力,迫使成功者深陷怪圈,糟蹋人生,履行偿还,恶性循环,走投无路; 捍卫者则全力以赴地展开拯救,在污染和净化中,在侵蚀和完善中,在堕落和抗争中,把爱情悲剧改变成爱情正剧,从而凸现出了引发疾病丛生的降低生命质量的危害人类发展的重大社会问题。
Main Logline
The defeatist harbourd the bitter hatred, never stopped defrauding, injuring, revenging, caused a huge debt pressure, forced the gainer to fall deep into a strange circle, ruin her life,discharge a repayment,viciously cycle,be desperately driven;but the defender dedicated himself to launching a rescue, in pollution and purification, in erosion and perfection,in degeneration and contention,changed a love tragedy into a love drama,thus bulged the significant society problem of triggering the sickness overgrowth,reducing the life quality,endangering the human development.

副主题思想
一个时代的困扰纷繁的非常沉重的人生迷惘: 为了移民,主人公无奈与在中国的同居者分手, 并且始终不能与在加国的儿子团聚, 最后竟然还会失去了在美国的妻子;或者是爱情变得残缺不全,悲愤填膺;或者仅仅艰难地维系下来,前途未卜;所派生出来的人性压抑感巨大,以致往事不堪回首,现实很难尽如人意。
Assistant Logline
The life perplexity of an epoch,complicated puzzlement,extraordinary heaviness: for the sake of immigration,the protagonist had no choice but to part with his cohabitant in China,and wouldn’t reunite with his son in Canada from beginning to end, unexpectedly lost his wife in America at the eleventh hour; or the affection became incomplete, being filled with grief and indignation; or it’s only difficult to maintain the relation, the prospect isn’t cheerful; he felt depressed in humanity, so much so that he wouldn’t bear to think of the past and considered that the reality isn’t entirely satisfactory.

Main Characters

注明: 本人已就此片的拍摄事宜,同中国大陆某电影公司接洽。其中,关于演员的选择思路,形成了初步的共识,即准备聘请伊万卡·玛丽·川普扮演乔安娜,切尔西·维多利亚·克林顿扮演玛格丽特, 詹妮弗·黄素·史泰龙扮演凯瑟琳, 玛利亚·安·奥巴马扮演雪莉, 伊万卡·玛丽·川普的女儿扮演艾米, 等等。现在,我们列举理由如下:

1,与政治无关。电影就是电影,艺术就是艺术,美学就是美学,(描写)爱情就是(描写)爱情。

2,信息爆炸时代,科学普及化,艺术大众化,影视日常化,自拍,直播,纪录片,微电影等应运而生,成为时尚。高雅步入世俗。

3,条条道路通罗马,只要有利于电影艺术和科学的发展,就该拓荒触禁,尝试新方法论。

4,此片纪实性很强,无需高超的演技,强调反映出生活本来的面貌。

5,准演员素质好,稍加培训指点,就可参加拍摄。

6,明星搞职业,名人为兼职。在电影市场上,作为异军突起, 名人效应大于明星效应,因此绝对能够引起轰动。

Indication: I’ve taken up the shoot matters of this screenplay with a film corporation concerned in Chinese continent.

1,have nothing to do with politics. Film exactly is film, art exactly is art, aesthetics exactly is aesthetics, (describe) love exactly is (describe) love.

2, in information explosion era, science is dissemination, art is popularization, film and television are everyday occurrence. A self-take, a live network programme, a documentary, a micro film and so on has risen in response to the proper time and conditions, become vogue. nobility and gracefulness step into secularity.

3, all roads lead to Rome. We should open up a virgin soil and touch a forbidden zone so long as help develop the film art and science, try a new methodology.

4, this screenplay looks like a documentary, doesn’t need an exquisite acting, emphatically reflects the original life features.

5, likeness actresses have a high quality, moreover cultivate and direct them a little, then they could attend photography.

6, star does profession, celebrity holds concurrent post. But in the film market, another extraordinary army emerges, celebrity’s influence is bigger than star’s influence. Therefore they should absolutely cause a sensation.

剧情梗概


唐大之在长跑锻炼的时候,认识了玛格丽特及其表妹乔安娜。因经常与乔安娜比试身手,于是慢慢地就成为了朋友。后来,觉察到玛格丽特抽烟厉害,还带动了乔安娜跟着模仿,也就萌生出了想断交的念头。


玛格丽特和乔安娜暗地里都对唐大之心存好感。所以,受到明显的冷落后,玛格丽特抽烟少了,乔安娜则干脆戒掉,于是大家恢复来往。最终,唐大之与乔安娜由倾慕到携手再相拥。直把玛格丽特气得是七窍生烟,痛楚彻骨,深怀恨意。而凯瑟琳对唐大之表示出了真诚的好感。


乔安娜先到上海,与唐大之的前女友李水儿打交道,从而大为领教了中国的婚姻文化,服饰文化,风俗文化等。以后,还特地前去多伦多,见了唐大之的前妻花蓓蕾及儿子唐洋洋。表现出了直面另类生活,在某种程度上,所具有的茫然性,矛盾性,包容性。


婚后的时光亦如流水。唐大之就要求乔安娜到图书馆去阅读。哪里晓得,到了后来,乔安娜变成了酒吧的座上客。唐大之力劝不听,就只好采取手段,叫乔安娜吃不消,最终罢休作了断。


乔安娜到超市当上了收银员。生活刚刚恢复了平静,又有罪恶的魔爪伸出,布下为时几年的灾祸。在这期间,乔安娜先后一次堕胎,三次住医院进行戒毒。唐大之始终积极进取。并且,在沃顿、雪莉、怀特菲尔德等朋友的帮助下,竭尽全力来挽救败局。


煎熬苦难总算有了终结。健康的可爱的宝贝的女儿艾米诞生。外婆凯瑟琳奉献全身心呵护外孙女。这深深地感染着唐大之,再加上零距离朝夕相处,双方克制不住吐露心迹,引发出了惊涛骇浪巨涌。


唐大之和凯瑟琳认为,此次风波仅限于解释问题。但出自本能,乔安娜却始终耿耿于怀,不肯放过。为了进行报复,竟然走进赌场,输得一塌糊涂,造成很大损失。最终,致使整个家庭生活,陷入了十分困顿当中。


为了清偿大笔赌债,乔安娜再次进饭店,重操旧业当女招待,但收入不高还款慢,受到债主多次催逼。在万般无奈没辙中,竟然有意识地无意识地参与阴谋作恶勾当。为此,家庭已经出现非常明显的解体危机趋势。


乔安娜是不断犯错,当然有其主观原因。但在这桩桩件件事情发生的黑幕背后,进行作梗使坏加害的始终是玛格丽特。玛格丽特奉行“得不到就毁灭”的恶搞原则,长期图谋捣烂唐大之和乔安娜的姻缘。帮凶则是心狠手辣恶毒的克里斯多夫。


一方面进行了深入的反思,一方面了解到实际的情况。唐大之怒火中烧,奋起反击没商量,利用狼狈太贪婪,设计谋引蛇出洞,实实在在地报了一箭之仇。但即使这样做了,还是形成了已经发生,正在发生,可能发生等三种内容截然不同的结局。

SYNOPSIS

1
When Dazhi Tang was doing his long distance running exercise, recognizing Margaret and Joanna. Because he frequently had the agile competition with Joanna, thereupon they became friends little by little. Afterwards, he scented, Margaret smoked too much herself, and also drove Joanna to imitation along with her.He conceived the idea of wanting to break off their friendship.

2
Both Margaret and Joanna became aware of good impression on Dazhi Tang secretively. Therefore, obviously suffering a leaving them out in the cold, Margaret smoked less, then Joanna straightforwardly quitted smoking. Hence Dazhi Tang resumed his association with Margaret and Joanna. In the end, Dazhi Tang had a strong admiration for Joanna, went hand in hand by both of them, gave Joanna a big hug. The result directly made Margaret fulmination, anguish, furiousness. While Catherine showed her sincere favour on Dazhi Tang.

3
Joanna first arrived in Shanghai, being in contact with Shuier Li of Dazhi Tang's cohabitation ex-girlfriend, thus greatly experienced marriage culture, apparel culture, custom culture, and so on in China. Afterwards, Joanna specially went to Toronto, visiting Yangyang Tang, the son of Dazhi Tang and his ex-wife Beilei Hua. Facing alternative livelihood, she expressed her perplexity, contradiction, tolerance in a certain degree.

4
The time looked also like a running water after marriage. Dazhi Tang requested Joanna to go to library for reading thereupon. Where does know, to the later, Joanna became an honoured guest in bar. Dazhi Tang urged Joanna to quit drinking, Joanna didn't listen. Dazhi Tang had only to take measures, forcing Joanna to be unable to stand. She gave up drinking at last.

5
Joanna became a cashier in supermarket. When their life had been restored calmly, the evil claws have unsheathed again, castting a disaster that lasted a few years. During this period, Joanna conducted an induced abortion, three times of the detoxification living in hospital successively. Vigorously Dazhi Tang kept forging ahead from beginning to end. As well as, under the help of Wharton, Shirley, Whitefield, and so on friends, going to rescue a fiasco in great lengths.

6
There's the termination of suffering hardship finally. Amy, their healthy, lovely, darling daughter, was born. Grandmother Catherine took great care of granddaughter Amy in dedicating herself wholeheartedly. This fact had been affecting Dazhi Tang deeply, superadding for together morning and night in a zero distance, both sides could hardly restrain themselves from revealing the true state of their mind. But it triggered off wind, storm, surge.

7
Dazhi Tang and Catherine insistently considered this disturbance as being restricted within the explanation of their heart knot.But from an instinctive reaction, Joanna always held the grudge and refused to forgive. In order to revenge herself for this matter, unexpectedly walked into a casino, lost in a complete mess, caused a lot of damages. In the end, Joanna brought about the whole family life falling into great difficulties.

8
In order to pay off a large gambling debt, Joanna went to restaurant once again and returned to her former career as a waitress. But her income wasn't high, and she repaid slow. Joanna suffered pressing repeatedly from the creditor. In having no alternative or in hopelessness, unexpectedly Joanna deliberately or unconsciously participated in conspiracy, evil, crime. For this reason, the family has already showed the disassembly crisis tendency significantly.

9
Joanna was continually making mistakes, certainly hasing her subjective reason. But these things occurred in the black curtain behind, It was Margaret who had conducted the obstruction, the mischief, the injury throughout. Margaret pursued the retaliation principle that if it's unavailable and it's just destructive. She contrived to pound the marriage which had brought Dazhi Tang and Joanna together for a long time. And the accomplice exactly was heartless, cruel, malicious Christopher.

10
On the one hand, Dazhi Tang proceeded the reflection deep; On the other hand, realized the actual situation. He simmered with rage, rose up by resistance without negotiations, utilized a wolf and a jackal for being too greedy of gain, designed drawing a snake out of its hole, paid off an old grudge really and truly. But even dealing with thus, still formed the very different endings in three kinds of content that has happened, that is happening, that may occur and so on.
主题曲:《延伸》
Theme Song:Going To Extend


我们在绿林大道上长跑,
我们在绿林大道上相爱。
你的速度就像流星那样迅捷,
你的身姿要比玫瑰更加娇艳。
突然,你遭受到狂风暴雨的冲击,
完全失去了方向。
而后,我千百度寻觅却依旧茫然,
洒泪离开伤心地。
1
We have a long distance run on Greenwood Avenue,
We love each other on Greenwood Avenue.
Your speed looks like a fast meteor,
Your figure is more delicate and charming than rose.
Suddenly, you suffered the charge of a furious storm,
You fully lost your orientation.
After that,I sought you by all manners or methods, but being utterly ignorant,
I took a tearful leave from this grieved area.


我们在绿林大道上长跑,
我们在绿林大道上相爱。
你曾经是个健将,
现在靠轮椅代步。
涅槃重生需要顽强,
勇敢者家园在这里。
我的计划绝非是梦境,
明天要你再脚踏征程。
2
We have a long distance run on Greenwood Avenue,
We love each other on Greenwood Avenue.
You once was an athlete,
Now you’ve ridden a rolling chair instead of walk.
Phoenix reviviscence needs a tenaciousness,
Here is the home of the brave.
My plan absolutely isn’t a dreamland,
I ask you to step a new journey again tomorrow.


我们在绿林大道上长跑,
我们在绿林大道上相爱。
以青春抗击污浊龌龊的侵害,
维护住自己神圣的冰清玉洁。
我的名字叫艾米, 爸爸妈妈都爱我(艾米唱);
外婆只要一有空, 就带我来练跑步。
欢声笑语飞扬起来(合唱),
生命之路向前延伸。
3
We have a long distance run on Greenwood Avenue,
We love each other on Greenwood Avenue.
You resisted the sordid infringements by your youth,
You’ve safeguarded your holy pureness and nobleness.
My name is Amy, dad and mommy love me(Amy sings);
So long as grandmother has leisure,leading me on a run.
Cheering and laughing are flying upward(Chorus),
The road of our life is going to extend.

我们在绿林大道上长跑(合唱),
我们在绿林大道上相爱。。。
We have a long distance run on Greenwood Avenue(Chorus),
We love each other on Greenwood Avenue。。。

玛格丽特
(伸拇指)
怎么样?乔安娜很厉害?
唐大之
(作大揖)
领教了。果然身手不凡!
乔安娜
你谦虚。我属名不副实!
玛格丽特
乔安娜一米六五,但腿部发达修长;你身高一米八五,明显偏瘦肌肉少。因此,力量上存在差异。
唐大之
你是分析家,讲得有道理。
乔安娜
打住!玛格丽特,别再贫嘴。
5,EXT.HARMONY PAVILION-DAY
With a cigarette in her mouth,Margaret applauds. Joanna sprints. Dazhi Tang canters.
MARGARET
(stretching thumb)
How about? Is Joanna very powerful?
DAZHI TANG
(making a bow with hands folded in front)
I've received your prompt. A really and truly extraordinary skill!
JOANNA
You're modest. I belong to inaccurate designation!
MARGARET
Joanna is 1.65 meters,but her legs are very developed; your height is 1.85 meters, obviously trends thin. Therefore, there's a difference in the strength between you and Joanna.
DAZHI TANG
You're an analyst, put it right.
JOANNA
Stop!Margaret, not so loquacious.

6,合亭,日,外
玛格丽特
(不快)
乔安娜当运动员,很辛苦,是不是?那我作为大教练,大裁判,不重要?为什么少得一个?
唐大之
(笑嘻嘻)
对不起。本来完全相同。因你抽烟厉害,我就有意扣留。现在给你行吗?
玛格丽特
差不多。告诉你唐大之,我俩是表姐妹,我们又是朋友,必须一视同仁!
唐大之
好的。我会注意这个问题。
乔安娜给唐大之卷筒。
乔安娜
你没了。你也渴,快吃吧。
唐大之
你太客气。说句实话,你不了解。要在平时,我不会碰。
唐大之把卷筒还给乔安娜。
唐大之(CONT’D)
因为,世界卫生组织经过调查,得出结论:嗜糖有害,甚于抽烟。如果长期食用含糖量高的食品,人的健康会受到损害。
玛格丽特与乔安娜相觑。
6,EXT.HARMONY PAVILION-DAY
MARGARET
(being unhappy)
As an athlete, Joanna worked hard, hasn't she been? Then I was a coach and referee, could it be said that it’s not important? Why have I got less?
DAZHI TANG
(laughing)
I'm sorry. Originally being the same. Because you smoked a bit much, so I deliberately reduced one piece. Now can I give you it?
MARGARET
Just about right. Tell you, Dazhi Tang, both of us are cousins, we are friends too. So you must treat us equally!
DAZHI TANG
All right! I'll pay attention to this problem.
Joanna gives Dazhi Tang a reel.
JOANNA
You haven't had. You're thirsty too, quickly eat.
DAZHI TANG
You're very kind. To be honest,you don't understand. In peacetime, I wouldn't touch.
Dazhi Tang returns the reel to Joanna.
DAZHI TANG(CONT’D)
Because,World Health Organization has got the conclusion after investigation:there's a harmfulness to be addicted to sugar, more than smoking. If consume the food of high sugar content long, human health will be damaged.
Margaret and Joanna look each other.

唐大之
(忍耐不住)
你原来说笑时,嘴巴像朵花儿;飘来阵阵清香,撩拨心慌神乱;现在股股烟味,叫人生厌反感!
乔安娜
(支吾其词)
我是出于好奇,也才抽了几天;虽然是不太好,问题未必很大;因此可轻可重,为何意见尖锐?
唐大之
嘿,关系到你的健康!好,就算我多管闲事。
乔安娜
不,男子汉请宽容点!耶,小错误就放一马。
唐大之
大小姐,科学只会坚持正确的道理。
唐大之加速,跑开。
7,EXT.GREENWOOD AVENUE-DAY
DAZHI TANG
(being unbearable)
When you were chatting and laughing, your mouth looked like a piece of flower, floated a fitful fragrance, irresistibly drew my attention and interest. Just now, you’ve breathed out a whiff of cigarette smell, make people disgusting loathsomeness or repellence!
JOANNA
(prevaricating)
I was out of curiosity,have also smoked a few days. Although it's not very good,the problem isn't necessarily serious. Therefore it can be light or heavy. Why is your opinion so sharp?
DAZHI TANG
Hey! Relating to your health! Okay, even if I put my finger into another's pie.
JOANNA
No,man,please be tolerant!Yeah, only small error,then let someone off easy.
DAZHI TANG
Big missy, science will only adhere to the correct reason.
Dazhi Tang accelerates, runs along.

8,合亭,日,外
唐大之到达,喘息。
玛格丽特
不对啊,怎么啦,你比乔安娜快得多?
唐大之
乔安娜在抽烟,所以慢慢腾腾。你开心?
玛格丽特
(正中下怀)
乔安娜上瘾,来得非常快!
唐大之
(无可奈何)
你有意怂恿,顶教唆罪名!
玛格丽特
乔安娜是成人,已经快十九岁。
唐大之
哪怕九十九岁,信息必须良好。
玛格丽特
(阴毒)
哼,她只要一抽烟,你肯定会对立,还能多给卷筒?
唐大之
(激愤)
是,为了蝇头小利,你玩处心积虑,直接加害于人。。。
乔安娜跑至。唐大之打住,击掌,离开。
8, EXT.HARMONY PAVILION-DAY
Dazhi Tang arrives, gasps.
MARGARET
Amiss, what's wrong, are you more fast than Joanna?
DAZHI TANG
Joanna is smoking, so she is slow, are you happy?
MARGARET
(fitting in exactly with her wish)
Come very fast!Joanna has addicted.
DAZHI TANG
(feeling helplessness)
You've intended to instigate and got the instigation accusation!
MARGARET
Joanna is an adult, almost nineteen years old.
DAZHI TANG
Even ninety-nine years old, the information must also be good.
MARGARET
(being insidious)
Hum, she only just needs smoking, you'll be certainly opposed,but also do you give more reel to her?

唐大之
因为很近,从家门口,到更衣室,十八分钟。
乔安娜
是喽,唐大之坚信健康就在于运动。

Hey! Man, how many days haven't you practised a long-distance running?
DAZHI TANG
Oh! Miss, I've changed to going to work and getting off work on foot.
MARGARET
Why? Haven't you driven? Back and forth by running every day? Are you so strong?
DAZHI TANG
Because it's close. I spend eighteen minutes from my door to the locker room.
JOANNA
Yeah, you firmly believe health to depend on movement.
DAZHI TANG
Thank you! I also think that the smoking may result in weak.

MARGARET
This melody is very gorgeous,I'm really intoxicated.

Hey!Dazhi Tang, do you go so far as to delay today?
DAZHI TANG
Ha, Joanna, only you’re here yourself?
JOANNA
What’s your meaning?Do you miss Margaret?
DAZHI TANG
No this matter, only ask nothing more.
JOANNA
But in the fact, thus and thus, unprecedented.
DAZHI TANG
Your words are extremely right. But you often come together.
JOANNA
Are you arbitrary?What’s wrong?Do you want to tease this girl again?
DAZHI TANG
Oh, it’s nothing!Your big missy are a gentility!
JOANNA
Do you think highly of me?Where it can be figured out?
DAZHI TANG
In the bottom of my heart, it’s already saltatory, risen and emergent!

唐大之
不会这样。然而,你这话意味着什么呢?

Dazhi Tang, you’re downright bad, surely it doesn’t mean that you only know mocking at me?
DAZHI TANG
Won’t like this. However, what have your words meant?
JOANNA
I can’t say clearly. Merely, haven’t you always paid close attention to me?

DAZHI TANG
Hey, if she would do, I’ve just now come, met you, a hundred per cent first word was happy birthday to you!
JOANNA
No, I saw that both of you were talking about something in smiling broadly, then you went forward to me and said more than several sentences yesterday. what was the meaning?
DAZHI TANG
She solicited my opinions, asked what was my impression on her. I replied, if I would have some views, I’d report to you, you would pass on.

The cake is bigger too, the flower is more too. There still is an oddity. She hasn’t requested you, then you were so very vigorous that you did everything to please her. Remotest raw deal!Remotest raw deal!Remotest raw deal!
DAZHI TANG
(icing manner)
Schemed first, then pretended neglect, is it called for justice?Others add to the fun, but you haven’t come, where is it called for justice?Shopping was late, being without selection, also isn’t it justifiable?
MARGARET
Dazhi Tang, you’re severe, I hate you!
DAZHI TANG
Big missy, don’t get angry with me, please calm down.
Dazhi Tang asks Joanna consoling Margaret.

Whom do you want to deceive?Is it possible?I’ve suffered a great deal!

Because I knew this thing too late and have had less cash.

In that case, you don’t give one hundred dollars for congratulating one hundred years long life.

CATHERINE
Why?Dazhi Tang is actually subordinate to awful youngness, sturdiness, handsomeness.
JOANNA
He’s older than me twenty-six years, and he’s exceeded you six years. So it goes without saying that he belongs to uncle generation in family.
CATHERINE
Are these words true?
DAZHI TANG
Absolutely not wrong.
Catherine goes forward, comes to under road lamp.
CATHERINE
(being serious)
I say Joanna has grown up, tried to find a boyfriend for mother me. Joanna still is a maiden. You should entirely choose me.
DAZHI TANG
(having no misgivings)
Merely being opportunity problem, then not different in essence. If I’d be familiar with you,perhaps we’ve married.
CATHERINE
Quite right!All there’s to be said that we’re the very image of sisters. So the suitable should be reliable to a higher degree.
DAZHI TANG
Not wrong, but we’ve just defined our promise, Joanna has become my other half.

Joanna takes aback.
CATHERINE(CONT’D)
You’ve just understood each other, only bustling with activity in words, but no real action.
JOANNA
You’ve all along initiated, demanded that I should have scruples and not lower myself, wait for a white horse prince.
CATHERINE
Since you’ve still lain to original condition, then Dazhi Tang can become my boyfriend!
JOANNA
Don’t allow your fancy to run wild!Stablely Dazhi Tang is my boyfriend.

I belong to super wisdom and deficient ability. I’d attended school for nineteen years. I’m most afraid for loneliness.
DAZHI TANG
If you want excellence, you don’t fear solitariness. When you’re waiting for, you’re frequently lonely.Being without separation,where do you have reunion from?
SHUIER LI
Alas!For this short while, for that short while. If you don’t have a ideological realm, you’d take a unrealistical action.
DAZHI TANG
Yes, water hasn’t been boiled, you’ve deliberately carried the kettle. When we still cohabited, you’d started a mutual love in the internet.

李水儿到窗前,流泪。
李水儿
是的,以单身身份,你移民美国。要过好几年,才能来接我。
唐大之
须知,不花时间读,能取得学位?你知道心急,难吃热豆腐。
李水儿
问题在于我所有的努力都付之东流了。
唐大之
你该从失败当中汲取不再犯错的教训。
李水儿
但再找像你这样的优秀者,我三十了,非常困难,没有信心。
乔安娜站起,靠近唐大之,手放他肩上。
李水儿
乔安娜,嗲美眉,请不要摆出神圣不可侵犯的样子。
唐大之
李水儿,原谅她。她是处女,初恋,新婚,当然冰清玉洁啦。

Shuier Li goes to the window, tears.
SHUIER LI
Yes, as a single identity, you immigrated into America. But you should spend several years, then you could arrange for me to take a migration.
DAZHI TANG
You should know if you don’t go to a university, can you gain a degree?If you’re impatient, could you eat hot bean curds?
SHUIER LI
In an embarrassing situation, my personal efforts were all defeated.
DAZHI TANG
You must draw the failing lesson from no longer repeating an offence.
SHUIER LI
But I’m thirty years old.I haven’t had confidence.I only confront difficulties to find you such an excellent man again.
Joanna stands, closes to Dazhi Tang, puts her hand on his shoulder.
SHUIER LI
Joanna, a lovely sweet, please don’t assume a sacrosanct manner.
DAZHI TANG
Shuier Li, forgive her. She’s a virgin. She’s first loved. She’s the newlywed. As it should be as clean as ice and as pure as jade.

李水儿
知道,我只是想把话说出来,现在心里就好受多了。
唐大之
房子请你继续照看。你可作为物质依托,审慎地去寻找男友。
李水儿
你不打算把它卖掉?
唐大之
乔安娜提出留着,等子女长大回来,如求发展可落脚。
乔安娜
我认为上海非常棒!
乔安娜把唐大之和李水儿拉近。
乔安娜(CONT’D)
复旦大学, 师兄师妹,朋友一场,情谊长存,相互合影,弥足珍贵。
唐大之和李水儿感谢。

SHUIER LI
I know. I only wanted telling you something. I’ve felt more comfortableness in my heart now.
DAZHI TANG
Please you to continue looking after this apartment. You can regard as a substance dependence, cautiously go to seeking boyfriends.
SHUIER LI
Don’t you intend to sell it?
DAZHI TANG
Joanna has put forward keeping back. We’ll wait for our children growing up and returning. If they seek a development, they could stop for a rest or live temporarily.
JOANNA
I think Shanghai is very wonderful!
Joanna draws Dazhi Tang and Shuier Li close.
JOANNA(CONT’D)
Senior fellow apprentice and junior sister apprentice made friends with Fudan University. Your friendship lives forever. It’s very precious to let you take a group photo.
Dazhi Tang and Shuier Li thank.
