PMCG
I've heard of you before
Really?
You major in piano right?
Yeah
Why did you transfer to our school?
Something wring with yours?
Your school is more beautiful
Well, my Dad made me
Hi!
Classmate?
Yeah
The school is famous for this piano?
Yeah, we're all very hard-working
You too, right?
I'm okay
Look here
these 2 floors are all piano rooms
You study piano, you'll be here often
It's so beautiful
This building is over 100 years old
But on graduation day,
we're tearing it down
Why?
To build a new one!
We won't be using it after graduation though
Later students are more fortunate
Come practice often!
Sure
This is a really nice school
Want me to show you inside?
That's okay. I'll be fine on my own!
If I get lost, I'll yell for help!
I'm sorry, were you playing?
No
There isn't anyone else
Okay, it was me
It sounded beautiful
Thanks
In 19th century
there was a musical genius
later knowan as the piano poet
Sorry I'm late
that's Chopin
Why was he a musical genius
What's so interesting? Pay attention in class!
Because at the age of 6, he started learning piano
but when he was 8 years old
he was already performed publicly
and successfully played a concerto
which made him famous
But why was he called the piano poet?
Because his work is described to be
fluid and graceful like a poem
What? Why are you following me?
I'm not
No? Bye then!
Yes! I want to ask you!
What's the name of the song you played?
It sounded beautiful!
That's a secret!
What's so secretive about that?
What's your name?
I told you already
I hear you from far away
Let's go
This is a school, not a place to piek up girls
Pay attention in class!
Now listen, just watch yourself!
Want me to give you a ride? It's on the way
How did you know it's on the way?
Why the sudden rain?
You don't have an umbrella?
Why are you so quite?
No matter what I ask, it's always a secret
Which musician do you like?
All of them
Do you like the sum or the rain?
Like them both
Alright then
You play the piano well
Very well!
Very well!
Will you play for me next time?
No!
That's ok, I'll hear soon or later
I'm almost home
Really?
I can just go up myself, thanks
It's fine, I'll take you to the door
I don't want my family to see
What's your name?
I'm Rain
My name is Jay
Bye!
Aren't you making dinner?
Right, I almost forgot!
You still remember!
I got it all ready
That's okay, I'll get it from your Dad
Really?
Thanks!
You look happy today!
Ok, bye!
Ride carefully! Goodbye!
You're back! Dinner will be ready soon!
Jay, what're you looking for?
Nothing
Looking for someone?
Good morning
Good morning
Let's look question 2
and see which student knows the answer
Raise your hands, Miss Huang
Very good, please sit
Question 3
the answer is A, sub key of A major
Did you see 2 students come in?
He's gone!
You're a standup guy!
Are you new?
Music class!
I'm Bob, he's Lance
We're in the rugby team
He's the captain, because he's old
What're you talking about!
I gave my youth to rugby
I've chosen this long and arduous path
Because the school need me
Got it?
Pay attention when I'm talking!
Let's go! You don't even study music!
Come watch us play next week!
Bye! Leaving now. Bye!
The coach is so dumn!
Stupid!
Really dumb!
Did I scare you?
You scared me!
Why weren't you in class?
I was practicing
Why? You miss me?
Yeah!
I miss your music!
But I miss you...
Your music!
The weather is so nice today
The weather is so nice today
Come here
Crouch!
Crouch!
Now!
Let's go!
How many people in your family?
My family? Just me and my Mum
What about you?
Just me and my Dad
Just me and my Dad
Stop copying me
It's true though
What does your Dad do?
You don't know?
How would I know?
Never mind then
What's so secretive about that?
You're not the only one with secrets
So tasty!
I've never had this
Really? Then have more!
Cheers!
Nobody cheers with ice creams
Let's go after school!
Jay is going start!
Hurry or we'll miss it!
Hey, you're supposed to...
keep the school lively!
Let's follow the chicks! Let's go
Today, the new guy is going to challenge Howe
What a brave thing to do
Let's applaud to that!
What're they doing?
Piano battle, don't you know?
Ladies, do you all know me?
Mr.Ice!
That's right. And this is Howe
Did you all know his nickname?
Prince of piano
Right, because...
there isn't one song he can't play!
And no one can compare to him
What Prince of piano?
Out of my way!
Without further a due
Let's begin with ourpiano battle
Whoa, turning black keys to white keys!
New guy, did you listen carefully?
Don't you miss a key now!
Not bad! You didn't mess one single key!
How, it looks like need something harder
Chopin Waltz? That's too easy
I know it wasn't going to be that easy
Come on!
Hey, keep up!
I said keep up, not stand up!
Isn't he cute?
Even Chopin didn't know this part!
Aren't you all lucky to hear that!
Howe's improvisation is brilliant!
New guy!
That's me friend
Looks like today, it's going to get interesting!
The battle today is just brilliant!
Let's give them a round of applause!
Okay, back to class!
I'm a man of my words, here
You're really giving it to him? It's rare!
Thanks!
That was good!
Okay!
See you in class
Why do you do that?
I can have a heart attack, you know?
Hungry?
Very hungry!
You like to scare people from the back!
That's because I like your back
You played well yesterday
You were there?
Yeah, I just didn't want to distract you
Yeah, right! No girls can distract me!
I can still play smoothly
What? Don't be mad!
I'm just kidding
Why did you battle yesterday?
For this egg!
That's a secret!
Come on!
Jay!
Bob and I are playing for the welcome party
you played well yesterday
I'll count you in! How about it?
Sure!
Then it's a deal! Stick to your words now!
What deal?
Jay, you come here too!
See you in piano room later
Stand straight!
Stand straight!
Who said you can east here?
Does this look like a place to eat
Would you jog in a cafeteria?
Why don't you tuck in your shirt?
What's this? What kind of belt is this?
You think you're a singer?
Is that how to wear a tie?
If you don't cut your hair by tomorrow,
I'll cut it for you!
Girls like it!
Girls like bad appearance
Got a smoke?
Can I have one?
I've got a lighter
Cool
It's been a long time
Yeah
Why do you have cigarettes?
You! What kind of friends have you made?
Friends who smoke?
Just go! Go now!
Trying to scare me again?
Are they your friends?
Yeah
They don't look like your friends
I don't look like your friend
You're special, I'm ordinary
I think you're special too!
Being able to meet you has been incredible
Really?
If I'm a friend to you
Then tell me why are you so mysterious?
If you can catch me, I'll tell you
You like to play single-handed
Because I want to hold your hand with the other
I thought heard 4 hands playing
Why are you alone?
I played so fast
you thought there were 2 people
You students! Unbelievable
I'll pretend I didn't see anything, Got it?
See! Good pianist can get away with things
No, it's because teachers like me
Yeah, right!
That's Chopin's lover
They were together for 10 years
But eventually parted
To have each other, 10 years is plenty
Is there something on your mind?
I don't know
maybe I'll tell you someday
Just cherish our moments together
Okay
Let's go
Where?
Cherish our moments together!
So fast!
Go!
Don't ride so fast!
I'll be home too soon!
Really?
Alright then
It's beautiful!
Want to stop here?
Have you been busy lately?
Dinner is just ready
when I get home
Don't you think it is just nice?
Well, got girlfriend?
No, just out with Bob and Lance
Bob and Lance! I knew it!
They are bad people
Don't make those friends!
They smoke! They don't listen to music. They're bad people!
They don't listen to music so they're bad?
Of course!
Don't make it hard for me!
what's so hard about that?
You're my only son
I'm just worried about you, you know that?
Answer properly
Okay!
And don't make those friends, understand?
I'm done!
Are you on a diet
Look at this, how many times have I told you...
Not to misplace the CD
Pay more attention!
Don't daydream all the time, and be proper
Be someone ordinary!
I've listened to music for decades
Young people should listen to music more and don't think so much
I didn't
How long haven't you listened to music?
If I haven't
Just then, how would I misplace the CD?
Music had many different forms
We can usedifferent instruments
to mix and have different types of feelings
Like just a while ago, we had piano and flute
Let's have one of the music majors
come up and do an example for us
Sky, How about you?
Sky, did you hear what I said
How about you?
Jay, want to shoot some hoops later?
I'll pass
I'll return the book tomorrow!
Okay!
Later! Bye!
Sure, bye!
Bye, Sky!
Can you give me a ride home?
Your bike, give me ride home?
Never mind, I'm just kidding, bye!
Bye!
Can you give me a ride home?
Sure, come on! You're such a copycat!
You're so bad!
What?
Someone missed class today!
I was practicing in the piano room!
Sure? Then I'll take you some place
No class later?
Jump aboard or I'll take Sky!
Okay. Let's go!
Quit messing, you said it was only for 3 days!
It's been 2 weeks
I'm gonna get hell from my boss!
What? Alright, I'll have a look
This is my favorite song
Well?
Do you like it?
Keep the change!
Thanks!
We're not going inside!
Hurry!
What's wrong?
It's asthma! I just need a short break
Don't scare me now
So, I can't kiss a boy
Can't hold hands
Can't do anything too exciting
Really?
Serious!
I feel better though
I'll tell you a secret
Okay
I...
counted 108 steps from the piano room to class
That's silly
Forget that I've said it then!
Fine!
I've counted too!
From me to you, it's 5 steps!
How would you know!
You almost had me!
Such a silly game!
It's Swan! That is so hard to find!
The piano battle
Was to get this for me?
Yeah
You don't have many friends, right?
Nobody like me
How can that be?
Do you like me?
I like you
The world is a peaceful lullaby
But I insist on my manhood
Face all my enemies with an iron will
Love you tenderly under the moon
Man do not play sissy games
Life it like calm scenery
I insist with the shade of my manhood
To give heart to my brothers
and leave the chest for the girls' tears
I'm a totalman
Watch out, girls!
Adjusting my manly breath
Shaking my manly hair
Open my manly eyes
to give you a sweet face
I'll charm you with my manly smile!
Men with biceps of a mountain
Men with lonely like a wolf
Men with hearted passion
Men with warm hearts
The man is me
Watch out girls
The man is me
and you've fallen for me!
Do you know they're tearing this place down?
When?
Graduation day!
Then do you want to learn it?
The song I played the first time you met me?
You're really going to teach me?
Finally?
Do you have to play so fast?
That's how fast I play before I go home
That's hard to remember
Don't play this in the old piano room
Why?
It sounds bad on the old piano
I thought
It's because Sky usually plays there
I'll play you a song too
Now?
Not now!
On graduation day, I'll play for you
Alright, it's a deal!
Aren't we too old for this?
Push! Push!
That looks nice. A gift from your boyfriend?
I don't have a boyfriend
She don't have a boyfriend
Can you sign forme?
Sure!
You guys are so good!
We're just okay
Thank you!
Next week is the championship, want to come?
Can we, really? Thank You!
Of course!
You're so cool! Bye!
Bye!
Pretty cool huh!
Hey Jay!
Men don't play sissy games!
Jay!
Not bad! Girls from our class ask you to sign!
That's nothing!
You have to get use to it when you hang with us!
Got a question!
Shoot! What's up?
Have you athletes. Heard of asthma?
What are you? Stupid?
That's so easy. Bye!
Such an easy question! It's a kind of cold
Bull! You're not even close!
It's a sport injury!
Really?
Yeah!
I better ask someone else
But... A sport injury?
Yeah!
You're back!
You play well when I'm not around
Just learned it!
From whom?
None of your business
What's good for asthma?
Dancing! Dancing's good for asthma
Crap! What's really good for asthma?
Food makes you crap
Dancing doesn't, and...
Dance with me and I'll tell you!
How about it?
Dad, are you done?
Just about!
What's good for asthma?
An apple a day keep the doctor away
By the way, the market lady gave us some apple!
So it's apples?
Yeah! Don't play with me!
Apple! Apple!
Why did you turn it off? How do you turn this on?
York, what else do you want to listen to?
It's class time, I'll play for you next time!
So many apples!
Want some?
Can I?
No! 15 apples for 15 days!
Look at how long you haven't been to class
What does that have to do with apples?
It does! I bought them for you!
I'm like a fool everyday!
I brought all these, but you're not even here
Give them to Sky then!
Sky? Okay, sure!
I have so many of them anyways
What the? Are you mad?
When I'm not in school
Will you like other girls?
Yeah, 15 other girls
Hey, help me out!
Bach and Vivadi
Classical, there's Mozart, Beethoven
Over there we have the most famous one
The changes of classical music is so slow
From the beginning...
Rain! Rain!
Rain! Ran!
Where?
Rain ran away!
Jay!
Rain's mad!
Thank you! Thank you!
Excuse me!
Are you okay?
Yeah
Don't you have anything to say to me?
I don't know what to say, I'm sorry
Stop playing, You'll make me cry!
Dad, can you cut it out?
What!
Cut it out!
Cut it out, just leave me alone
What's wrong?
Just tell Dad, okay?
Nothing!
You're my only son, I'm worried about you
Tell me what's on your mind
I'll go cook!
Don't cook, it's a day off!
Let's eat out! Okay?
What do you want?
Let's go out and eat!
Be happy, son! Be happy, son!
Alright, alright! Looking for someone?
I'm looking for Rain!
Not so loud!
She's resting, you'll disturb her
Why isn't she in class?
She dropped out! Stopped studying!
Her asthma's acting up and needs rest
Don't come around anymore!
Then...
Sky!
I'm sorry about last time
It's okay, it's in the past
Did you ride your bike today?
No!
Then... Will you give me a ride if you had the bike?
Sure
Abalone? Is that abalone?
We don't have abalone
Why don't you just wait outside?
I've waited so long
I'm hungry!
The usual, right?
Yeah!
OK!
OK, thanks!
How have you been?
I've been okay!
Sure? Yeah, bye now!
Becareful! Okay, bye!
Old piano are hard to play
Really?
You like to come here often?
I have a lot of memories here
But on graduation day
It'll be torn down
I know
You're kind of mysterious
Really?
If something bothers you, you can tell me
Okay
Can I get a ride home after school
Don't you have this album already?
Yeah
Welcome to the 84th graduation ceremony
For Tanjiang Art School
Throughout this year
Watching outstanding graduates completing
This phase oftheir education
Nervous?
A little
It'll bring good luck!
I'll give this back after the concert
Okay, good luck!
Come on
Rain! Rain!
Don't disappear anymore okay?
Okay!
What're you doing?
Wait forme in class!
You're a disgrace, get back there!
Lunatic!
It really brought good luck!
What're you doing? Where did you go?
It's over and now you come back?
What's wrong with this classs, a refugee camp?
There's nothing here!
They should get a grant, only pens and rulers!
Look at that!
What? That!
Hello, Jay!
What're you doing?
Cleaning your classroom!
A lot of good stuff!
Don't say we didn't take care of you!
Here, this is for you! Don't forget us!
Let's go
To the next room!
Did you see a girl in my class?
Girl?
Who?
The one dancing with me at the party!
Dancing?
Are you nuts?
You were dancing alone!
I should pick a fight with you! You totally stole my thunder!
Why aren't you in class today?
I was practicing!
Someone missed class today!
I was practicing in the piano room!
Look at how long you haven't been to class
The one dancing with me at the party!
You were dancing alone!
Next time you need a dance partner, just ask me
What's your name?
I told you already
I thought I heard 4 hands playing
Why are you alone?
You students! Unbelievable!
I'll pretend I didn't see anything
Being able to meet you has been incredible
(I'm rain!)
(Where are you?)
(I Love You!)
(Do you love me?)
Granny!
Granny!
Granny!
Anyone there?
Who are you looking for?
I'm looking for Rain!
The door's not locked, come in
Try to be quiet, Rain is listening to music
Where did she go?
This is her favorite song
One day, she told me
She love someone who loves this song too!
Don't touch Rain's stuff!
Rain, Mum should've believed you!
What?
It was 1979
Rain is a 3rd year student
She plays the piano vert well, and,
She is a very talented student
But, she was always daydreaming
Rain
We've sat here for so long already
Can you tell me now why are you crying?
I'm getting kind of tired
Sir, will you believe me?
Of course I will
I'm just afraid you don't trust me
Then I'll tell you a story, okay?
One day...
Follow the notes upon a journey
At first sight marks one's destiny
Once the voyage comese to an end
Return lies within hasty keys
I saw him at the first sight
I'm sorry
And only he can see me
Excuse me!
Excuse me!
Excuse me! I'm wondering...
Sorry I'm late
We were in the same class
Hey, pay attention in class!
(January 18th, 1999)
Just that we're 20 years apart
Don't run!
Because I want to see him at first sight
I counted the distance from piano room to class
It's 108 steps
But it wasn't successful all the time
I'll never forget how his back looks
To me, those moments... were har to get!
York thought Rain was going back
No, I'm here to see Jay
I've made you fail again
Sky is here
Rain! Rain!
Rain's gone! She's going home!
Rain, it could be...
No, he has no taste! That's right!
That's how future boys are!
If I see him
I'll slap him silly
Naughty! Naughty!
York!
Yes, Mr.Yeh
That's too obvious
It's no longer eavesdropping!
Be careful, he's a pervert!
Rain...
He's just not worth it
Forget about him
If anything bothers you, if you're unhappy
You can talk to me, I'll help you, okay?
Sir, I won't go see him anymore
Can you keep this for me?
Sure!
And one more thing
Don't mention this to anyone else
Then can you keep this secret?
Of course!
Rain! Don't think so much!
The thing with Rain, we've been watching carefully
So, don't you worry, we will keep it up
Students, teachers
the school cares for her
Mostly, we need parents to help us out
You're the head of the class
You should watch over her, understand?
Don't tell other students about this!
(Lose your virginity 20 years in the future?)
Even though so good at homework
It's pity that got brain problem
Being so pretty, why not be my girlfriend?
You're so bad
Let's think about the performance on graduation day
Why not ask Rain to perform
Acting time travelling, looking for boyfriend
Ok, Ok! That's enough
What! Just kidding what!
You people don't bluf on Rain anymore!
Go back to your garbage work!
Rain?
Rain, you're really not going to class?
Take some medication then, I'll leave them here
(Psychiatrist Dr.Chang)
Who is he?
He's the boy I told you about!
How does mum look in 20 years?
The locks were changed, I couldn't get in
But I think, Mom should still be beautiful
It's all your fault
Saying that music will make her more elegant!
Look! Look at how sick she is!
What will we do?
(Psychiatrist Dr.Chang)
I'll get you some water
Did she meet the boy again?
She is better, thank you for visit her
If she knows you're her, she'll be really happy
It's the graduation ceremony today
I hope she can be here
I'll get her
Rain, look who's here
Rain, it's graduation day
I hope you can be there, okay?
Do you know they're tearing this place down?
When?
Graduation day!
I'll play for you!
Take a picture for me and Rain
But the results...
didn't turn out like I expected
I want a picture too!
Come, 1, 2, 3, smile!
What're you doing?
Wait for me in the class!
A gift for your boyfriend?
I don't have a boyfriend
(I'm Rain)
(I Love You)
(Do you love me?)
That was our last picture together
Why do you ask? Have you heard of her?
Oh and...
Jay?
Don't ypu play in the old piano room
Why?
It sounds bad on the old piano
Ready over there?
Yeah!
Hurry up! Boss is rushing!
No one left?
No!
Are you sure?
I've checked thousand times!
What about the piano?
The principal said they'll get new ones!
Here first! Here first!
Come over here!
Do you have to play so fast?
That's how fast I play before I go home
(Return lies within hasty keys)
(Even if we'll never see each other again)
(Even if you forget me)
(I just want to tell you a secret)
(I Love You)
(Rain)
(To Jay)
