Bloody Smart (聰明鎮)

A failing exam paper.

Just try harder next time.

But if life is a failing grade...

...all you can do is wait to die.

This isn't a cram school for retaking exams.

This is where you change your destiny.

Everyone deserves a second chance.

Fill out this paper...

...and you can erase your failed self.

Just score higher...

...and you can forget the past.

That's what they say.

Tired?

Get some sleep if you're tired.

I'll wake you when we get there.

Qiqi.

Wake up.

We're here.

Would anyone really come here just to retake exams?

The cable car will get us there soon.

It's another five hours by car.

Here.

It's good that it's remote.

You can focus on studying.

Chongming Cram School is really good.

The top scorers in the national exams come from here every year.

Are you Zhao Jiaqi's parent?

Yes.

Give me the luggage.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Follow me.

- Put it in. - But I still need...

No phones allowed inside. Or you can go back.

Do you see anything over there?

He ran that way.

This way.

Keep looking!

Hurry up...

Where did he go?

Hey.

I'm going this way.

You guys keep searching.

This is all for your own good.

We'll rest when we get there.

We need to report to Chongming early tomorrow.

We can't be late on the first day.

It stinks.

Close it.

Close the windows.

It's very remote here, yes...

...but if you just focus on studying...

...and work hard...

...a few months will pass quickly.

Do you see anything?

Don't know where he's hiding.

When we find him, he's dead.

Damn.

Over there!

Are you okay?

Did you get a good look at him?

No.

Once you've dropped her off, don't let them wander around anymore.

What's wrong?

None of your business.

Qiqi.

Time to get up.

How did you sleep?

Okay.

Good.

Get up, brush your teeth, wash your face, and eat breakfast.

Go on.

Who's that next door?

Playing music this early in the morning.

So noisy!

Disturbing people's sleep.

Mommy can't study for you...

...but everything else...

...you can leave to me.

You just focus on studying.

When you get into your top-choice school...

...and become a better doctor than your father...

...we'll be even happier together.

Look.

I know...

...Qiqi and Mommy will always be together.

It's your first day of class.

You have to make a good impression on the teacher.

You're starting later than others...

...so you need to work harder than your classmates.

Everyone is your rival.

Don't try to make friends with them.

Just focus on studying.

Hey, how are your grades?

- Here... - Let's chat.

Hey.

How are your exam scores?

- Third place. - Third place?

Pretty smart.

Hey, I know...

...your parents aren't around, huh?

Tough.

If you can't handle the studying...

...and want a break, just tell Uncle.

Give me your spot.

I can help you with anything.

- It's okay. - Don't force it.

Give me your spot.

Need anything, find me. I can handle a lot of things.

- Thank you. - I'm Uncle Fu.

- Parents can't enter. - Sorry.

We're here to register today.

What's the name?

Zhao Jiaqi.

What's going on?

- What's wrong? - No...

What happened to them?

Are they here to register?

Are there spots now?

Go to the principal's office.

- Register with Professor Kang. - How is this possible?

He said to register.

- After registering, parents must leave immediately. - No way? How are there spots?

- Thank you. - How are there spots?

And I've never seen these two before.

They're in.

- We've been waiting so long and couldn't get in. - Must be connections.

- How can this be? - Must be connections.

- Probably connections. - Definitely connections.

Our goal...

...first choice.

Our responsibility...

...study hard.

Students who come to Chongming...

...have only one thing to do.

Study.

Every student who comes to Chongming is a failure.

But here, you will succeed.

Everything unrelated to studying will be prohibited.

Chongming creates the perfect learning environment.

Your only responsibility is to study with all your heart.

Chongming Cram School was founded by Professor Kang.

He found new hope...

...for every student who failed their exams.

But he also established strict school rules.

Violating these rules will have serious consequences.

"One who is not benevolent..."

"One who is not..."

Sorry...

"I have not seen one who loves benevolence..."

"...or one who hates non-benevolence."

"One who loves benevolence..."

"...values nothing above it."

"One who hates non-benevolence..."

"...practices benevolence..."

"...and does not allow what is not benevolent..."

"...to affect their person."

"One who loves benevolence values nothing above it. One who hates non-benevolence..."

Qiqi.

Qiqi.

Qiqi.

Mommy's going home now.

Teacher Gao.

Please take care of Zhao Jiaqi.

I'm leaving.

Go on.

Go.

Don't look back.

Hurry.

Read the student handbook carefully.

Whether it's being late or leaving early...

...or any behavior that disrupts other students' studying...

...the school will not tolerate it.

There will be mock exams every month.

The bottom 30 students in the school will be expelled.

Understood?

This is the advanced class.

Only the top 30 students can get in.

What was your exam score?

384.

What?

384.

Lots of room for improvement.

I found out.

Zhao Jiaqi.

Class 9.

Probably Zhang Lei's spot.

Probably.

Anyone with a score below 384, stand up.

Move back one seat.

Move it.

To the middle, back there.

Seating will be adjusted based on mock exam results.

If you want to sit in the front...

...study hard.

"Curse"?

What's this?

"If you don't want to die, don't read any further..."

Why are you going through my stuff?

You saw something you shouldn't have.
