Episode Title: Outstanding
The story is set in 1991, during the technology boom, and follows a group of IT students at the University of Yenching. Xiao Chuang and a few of his friends are caught selling illegal Chinese language boards. Xiao Chuang sacrifices himself so his friends can escape but the board is recognized by their supervisor who names Pei Qing Hua as the creator. Despite Xiao Chuang's attempts to take all the blame, Pei Qing Hua, the number one student of the IT program, is also implicated and they are both fired.

Our Times Episode 1 Reactions
Immediately enchanted by the way they have fun with the past here -- the group shot where a team of students opens a big box and marvels at the computer inside! The clothes! The exuberance with which Wu Lei rocks that 90s curtain haircut! I have a feeling I'm going to continue to love the way the acting style is a little on the theatrical side. Pei Qing Hua and Xiao Chuang make a great odd couple -- the serious brainiac and the impulsive dreamer. Hou Ming Hao and Wu Lei play off each other perfectly - they're both nailing it.
