How do you say I love Beijing in Chinese?

I love Beijing students.

Thank you, Professor Reiser.

- Thank you.

Let's get out of here.

- Yeah. Im late for my night job.

Why is he sleeping here?

- No idea. Let's wake him up.

Comrades!

Good morning.

We must strengthen our body

to protect our country!

The People's exercise starts now!

What time is it?

- its past 8:
00.

Liu Xing. Morning.

- Hi. Morning.

What are you doing so early?

You look exhausted.

I have this most urgently

for Professor Reiser.

Oh, well, no, you don't

need to see him now.

You should be home in bed.

- He need it for article deadline.

That doesn't need to be in

till Thursday afternoon.

Are you sure?

- Yeah, Im positive. I'm sure.

Oh.

- Yeah. You have time.

Okay.

Do you want to wait for him?

- Yes.

Okay. He should be here very soon.

All right? - Okay.

Professor Reiser!

Hi.

I have finished.

- You're done?

Yes.

- So early?

Yes.

You see, in second run I adjust the

parameter of Omega for a better result.

This is excellent work, Liu Xing.

- Thank you.

I'm giving a talk at the Early Universe

Symposium a little later this summer.

Would you like to join me?

- Thank you very much.

Yeah?

- Yes.

Great food, free booze and beautiful,

albeit high-strung women.

Strong.

- Strung.

Hot chicks. Okay?

- Hot chicks?

Thank you, Professor Reiser.

- Jake. Call me Jake.

Thank you.

- Jake.

Dad, Mom , how are you?

I've been very lucky recently.

I am the number one assistant

to Professor Reiser.

Also, I met a nice Lady named Joanna

who loves Chinese culture.

There's plenty of food here.

Please don't send any more.

I read in the papers

American kids watch

over 30 hours of TV every week.

And at 1 3 they're already doing "it".

Where do they find time?

- Those Americans are efficient.

Maybe they do homework

while watching TV and doing "it" too.

Our Liu Xing knows nothing but studying.

That boy's been putting in

a lot of all-nighters.

Come on, these kids are grateful

for whatever work I give them.

They come from a place where

astrology is considered a science,

and indoor plumbing a luxury.

Yeah, they've only got

2000 years of civilization on us.

I imagine they think

we are the barbarians.

Your mail.

- Thank you.

Besides, what do you know about it?

You've never even been to China.

I'm a theorist.

I don't have to actually go there.

I don't even like Chinese food.

METAL:

Get dressed right away.

I have to leave in 1 5 minutes

and you're taking tickets with Sarah.

No.

- Oh, Hal.

I just... Ill be glad

to pay for more ticket takers.

Oh, no, it's not about writing a check.

It's very important that you be there.
