Today’s Enlightening
Entertainment
will be presented in
Aulacese (Vietnamese),
with subtitles in Arabic,
Chinese, English,
French, German,
Hungarian, Indonesian,
Japanese, Korean,
Malay, Persian,
Portuguese, Russian,
Spanish, and Thai.
Filmmaking
was introduced to
Âu Lạc (Vietnam)
at the end of 1890s.
It began to thrive in 1923
with the first movie
co-produced
by the French and
the Aulacese based
on the masterpiece
“The Tale of Kiều” by
literary great Nguyễn Du.
Embracing
the modern technology
of our world's civilization
and combining it
with a diverse artistic
foundation inherent in
the country's traditions,
Aulacese filmmaking
nowadays continues
to develop to
enhance the nation's
cultural landscape.
On Enlightening
Entertainment,
Supreme Master
Television is pleased
to introduce different
forms of arts
from Âu Lạc (Vietnam),
as well as from other
countries in the world,
in order to share the
beauty and cultures
of the peoples
on our planet.
The film “A Good Heart
Changes Fortune”
was adapted from
an ancient Buddhist tale
about a hard-working and
kindhearted young man
with an unfortunate fate.
The story is a reminder
of the unfolding of
the law of cause and effect
in the present life
in which a person’s deeds
could alter his or her
past life’s karma
right in this existence.
We now invite you
to enjoy part 1 of the film
“A Good Heart
Changes Fortune,”
written by screenwriter
Nguyên Chơn, directed
by Châu Minh Xuyến,
and produced
by Hoằng Pháp Temple.
This film will be aired
in 2 episodes,
with performances by
Quách Khoa Nam as
Hưng Nhi and Hưng Bang,
Mai Thành as
Mr. Hai Thịnh,
Uyên Trinh as
Mrs. Hai Thịnh,
Bích Trâm as Miss Mỵ,
Trương Hoàng Long
as Mr. Nghị Thanh,
Diễm Kiều as
Mrs. Nghị Thanh,
Hữu Thành as Mr. Bửu,
Lê Cường as
Household Manager,
and other artists.
Thank you for
watching today’s
Enlightening Entertainment.
Please stay tuned
to Supreme Master
Television.
Coming up is
Words of Wisdom.
Please tune in
next Thursday for part 2
of “A Good Heart
Changes Fortune.”
We’ll see you again.
Villagers cherish
the river as though
it were mother’s milk.
Let the rice field be
as lush as your love.
You enjoy the singing,
delight in my love.
Why leave the village
for tears to
moisten your sad eyes?
You’ve forgotten our vow
and the melancholy
lý tune,
the song lyrics,
and my affection too.
Leaving the village,
do you remember
the songs and trysts of
yore on moonlit nights?
You’re thousands of
miles away from love.
Which path
have you traveled?
My path is
a heartbroken one.
May God and Buddha
bless my family
with harmony.
May we be untroubled
and have favorable
business always.
Are you feeling better,
Mom?
Not any better.
How do you feel now,
Mom?
I feel so much pain.
Every time I lift my arms
like this, my God,
it feels prickling needles.
It aches so much.
What kind of
strange illness is this?
Don’t worry too much,
Mom.
It takes time.
You’ll recover eventually.
Here... You haven’t taken
the medicine bowl
I prepared for you.
I already drank it.
But it was so bitter,
I couldn’t swallow.
You must finish it
to recover quickly.
It’s too bitter, my child!
Try to drink it, Mom.
Here, please take it,
Mom.
Please try, Mom.
Lie down and rest, Mom.
Let me help you.
You may leave. (Yes.)
I’ll get some rest.
Please rest, Mom.
Brother Hưng Nhi! (Yes?)
It’s early in the morning.
Why are you climbing
the areca tree?
I wanted to gather
some areca nuts
for your mother.
Goodness!
Come down quickly!
Woe to you if you fall.
Hurry down!
It’s all right, Miss Mỵ!
You never listen to me,
do you?
Come down, quickly!
Or I... I’ll get mad.
Quickly!
Come down?
Yes, slowly! Be careful.
Why are you out here?
Why did you climb
so high like that?
It’s fine. I’m used to it.
O Brother Bửu! (Here!)
We haven’t seen each
other for quite a while.
I haven’t seen my
good friend for so long,
so I had to trek up here
for a visit.
Thank you very much,
Brother.
We must be lucky
to have you visit today.
Please come in
and have a seat.
O Hưng Nhi! (Yes.)
Bring a fresh teapot,
Hưng Nhi! (Yes.)
How are you lately?
I’m pretty good.
How about you?
Are your wife and
children doing well?
They’re all doing fine.
Thank you, son.
Replace this teapot, son.
(Yes.)
You don’t look too good.
Really?
Please have your tea, sirs.
Thank you.
Please! He offers you tea.
Please excuse me. (Yes.)
How are your
children’s business?
It’s good.
Lately many people
have jumped
into this business.
It’s quite competitive,
but we still manage
to make a living.
How about your fields
and orchards?
We still have
a steady harvest to
make it through the day.
Who was that young man?
He’s my servant.
He’s a very good worker.
But why are you
concerned about him?
He has dominicide features.
If he stays in your house
long, bankruptcy
and even death
will befall your family.
O God! What you said
is quite scary!
But I...
I don’t see anything wrong
with his staying here...
You don’t believe me?
But what you said
sounds rather strange.
You don’t believe it?
I’ve already told you;
it’s up to you.
How long has he been here?
Six months.
Six months already?
Yes.
Since he came here,
has anyone in your family
fallen ill all of a sudden?
What do you think
of Hưng Nhi?
I think he’s
very hard-working.
Diligent and gentle too.
Poor kid!
He has no parents.
He’s an orphan
and had to depend
on the villagers’ help.
Then in recent years,
he began to do labor
work to earn a living.
Really? (Yes.)
But why didn’t he stay
in his village to work,
but came to
our village instead?
Oh, it’s very miserable!
That village
has experienced storms
and floods
for the last few years.
People lost their crops
and became destitute,
so he drifted over here.
Really? In that case,
you hire him then,
to help him out.
All right.
Son! ( Yes.)
The boat went off already?
Yes, I let it go
after having our goods
loaded on the bank.
Did you count how many
bags there were?
20 bags, sir,
but I already carried them
all into storage.
These are the leftover ones.
20 bags are enough, son.
Yes.
That’s enough.
O Dad, Dad!
What is it, Mỵ? (O Dad!)
What’s the matter, child?
O Dad!
Calm down, take it easy!
What are you
so panicked about?
O Dad! (What?)
Mom at home...
What happened?
She fell down.
O God! She fell.
Now... (Go home!)
I’m going right now!
(Go! Go home!) (Yes.)
You stay here and
take care of everything,
all right? (Yes.)
I’m going home first,
all right?
Yes. I’ll go home right
after I finish loading.
You’re right.
Ever since he came
to my family,
many things have happened.
Just recently,
for example,
my wife fell down
and was bedridden
for a month.
After that, she’s been
chronically ill.
Is she better now?
She’s better now.
But it’s really strange,
you know.
Her arms and legs are in
pain, and her body aches.
It’s so difficult for her
to stand up and walk.
It hurts every time
she walks.
Do you know
of any solution?
Please tell me.
That young man looks
gentle and honest.
He probably pleases
you both, right?
Yes,
he’s a very good worker.
He takes very good care
of everything
around the house.
Lately,
I haven’t let him work
in the field anymore.
Now he’s taking care
of household chores,
the yard and garden.
He does that very well.
I love him very much.
He manages household
chores very well.
So, I make him stay
close to us all day long,
just within our family circle.
I won’t let him
go anywhere far.
Really? He’s definitely
your karmic debt.
O wife! Stand up!
I’m fine. Just let me
get up slowly.
What are you doing?
I’m practicing walking.
Goodness,
you practice walking?
Why didn’t you
let me know?
I feel better now.
I must get used to walking.
You’re right.
I’ll help you walk slowly
to get used to it.
If you do it this way
and something happens,
who will take care of you?
It’s fine. I feel better now.
Are you sure?
All right,
try to practice then.
Poor you!
That’s the only way!
Dad! Where are you
going at this time?
You scared me
out of my wits!
But where are you going
at this hour? (I... I...)
Where are you going?
That’s what it is, child.
I also feel very sad
to lose him.
But... I have no choice.
We really can’t keep him.
But Hưng Nhi is
no longer a stranger to us.
He’s like our family
member now, Dad.
So, what do you think?
I see that you two like
each other very much.
Dad, the favor of giving
birth and raising me
by you and Mom
is sky-high and sea-deep.
I wouldn’t let
my personal affection
cause harm to Mom.
Whatever your decision
is fine with me.
I’m also reluctant
to let Hưng Nhi go.
But I have no choice, child.
There’s no other way.
It’s the only solution, son.
There’s no better way.
I must let you go because
I have no choice.
O sir, but is what he said
really correct?
It’d be a pity for me
if I wasn’t the cause
of my lady’s illness.
That’s right.
It’d be a pity for you, son.
I’m aware of your
very difficult situation.
You’re lacking
everything in life.
Now you’re leaving me
and my family,
how will you be able
to provide for yourself?
I understand
your situation.
So, here’s some money
for you.
Go to another village.
Try to make a living
there, son.
I will pray to God
and Buddha for you.
O Nhi!
O sir, I bow to you.
I’m taking leave now.
Strive to survive, son!
You stay in good health, sir.
I don’t know you can
survive after leaving us.
Try hard, son!
Be well, sir. (O Nhi!)
Sir, I... (Go, son!)
O Nhi!
Try hard to survive!
I’m missing you
so much, son!
Hey! (What?)
Hưng Nhi,
the one who worked
for Mr. Hai Thịnh,
was dismissed. (Really?)
Let’s go up
and rest a little. (Sure.)
Mrs. Hai Thịnh seems
to recover completely
today, right?
Yes, very strange!
Hưng Nhi looks so kind.
Who would expect him
have astrological features
that harm his employer!
That’s why
there’s a saying:
“Don’t judge a book
by its cover.”
It’s not right to say that.
All this time,
Mr. Bửu is reputed
as someone who can
read people’s features.
What does reading
people’s features mean?
I heard that he has helped
many people
in difficult situations,
thanks
to his judicious eyes.
That’s right.
Who would believe
in such story?
Because
he has judicious eyes.
He just looks at a person
once and can tell his past,
present and future.
Is there
such a bizarre thing?
Never mind,
I don’t believe it.
Fine, then do you dare
to hire Hưng Nhi
to work for you now?
O brother,
do you need help here?
Can you carry this?
Yes, I can.
I’m very strong.
What’s your name?
And where do you live?
My name is Hưng Nhi.
I used to work for
Mr. Hai Thịnh before.
Hai Thịnh? (Yes.)
Hưng Nhi?
So... you’re the one with
astrological features that
harm your employer?
No, no, go away!
Ouch!
Wife, are you all right?
I’m okay. It’s just that
the rice bag is too heavy.
O God!
Now I don’t know what...
O brother, sister!
If you don’t mind,
let me help you. (Really?)
You will help us?
Thank you very much.
That’s so kind of you.
No problem.
I’m pregnant,
so I can’t help him at all.
The rice bag is too heavy,
brother!
It’s fine. Don’t worry.
Let me do it.
Without you,
we wouldn’t know
how to get these
4 rice bags home.
I’m very grateful.
Thank you, brother.
You follow me.
(All right.) Behind me.
Ouch! My back hurts
so much, O husband!
Be careful!
How about you stay here
to work for us?
You just carry about
a few dozen loads a day.
Yes, that’s fine.
I’m very strong.
I’d appreciate
having a job.
(Please eat!) Thank you.
But where do you live?
My home was
in Bamboo Village,
but my parents
passed on long ago.
So, whom do you stay with?
I worked for someone
in this village.
Really?
Whom did you work for?
I worked for Mr. Hai Thịnh.
Brother Nhi,
come to think of it,
we’re so poor, we can’t
afford to hire you.
How about you go find
a job somewhere else?
Maybe there are many
places that need help.
That’s right.
Why don’t you go soon?
It’s getting dark.
I have some spare change.
Please keep it
to spend on the road.
Thank you very much,
brother and sister.
But...
But I won’t take it.
Brother...
Brother, brother...
Just take it
to spend on the road.
Take it, brother!
Brother Nhi!
Brother Nhi!
Other people have parents,
even wealth
and favorable
astrological features.
Me, I’m all alone, with
even astrological features
that harm my employer.
Why am I so ill-fated?
O Hưng Nhi,
where are you now?
Do you resent my parents?
I hope you aren’t
holding a grudge
against my parents,
because they really
didn’t want to do that.
Mỵ! Are you all right?
Mom!
You’re thinking of
Hưng Nhi, aren’t you?
I’m getting old
and often forgetful.
Let me tell you,
don’t feel sad anymore.
It’s just that he has
no affinity with our family.
I don’t know why,
but since he left,
I’ve completely recovered.
Frankly,
I also miss Hưng Nhi
and love him very much.
I don’t know
how he lives now.
Mom, I’m very happy
that you’re back to health.
I feel like I’ve been
given another life.
From now on, I won’t
think of him again.
Quan Yin Bodhisattva,
Goddess of Great Mercy
be praised!
I’m not fortunate
to be a Buddhist yet,
and I don’t know much
about spirituality.
I just have a sincere heart.
I respectfully ask
for your blessing so that
I can find an honest job
to provide for myself.
Quan Yin Bodhisattva
be praised!
Quan Yin Bodhisattva
be praised!
Do you understand
my woes?
I’ve spent the whole day
on the road, but no one
wanted to hire me.
So, please allow me to
take refuge in this shrine.
Please bless me.
Quan Yin Bodhisattva,
Goddess of Great Mercy
be praised!
Quan Yin Bodhisattva,
Goddess of Great Mercy
be praised!
Quan Yin Bodhisattva,
Goddess of Great Mercy
be praised!
O brother, bill me!
Five đồng.
How come so expensive?
You have no money to pay?
No, I do.
I still have some
loose coins, please accept.
Why don’t you go
find a job?
Do you need a helper here?
My business is so slow here.
Try to ask
somewhere else.
To tell you the truth,
I’ve been to many places,
but no one wanted me.
It’s very hard
to find work nowadays.
Yesterday at work,
I heard about some guy
named Hưng Nhi.
He has astrological
features that bring harm
to his employers.
After he left their house,
the family’s health
and business
are clearly thriving.
Today when I went
looking for work,
they asked me
all kinds of things.
Where do I live?
What did I do?
Whom did I work for?
So troublesome!
That guy Hưng Nhi’s
situation is very miserable.
If no one hires him,
how will he survive?
Quan Yin Bodhisattva,
Goddess of Great Mercy
be praised!
I’m not fortunate
to be a Buddhist yet,
and I don’t know much
about spirituality.
I only have a respectful heart.
Please bless me so that
I can find an honest job
to provide for myself.
Quan Yin Bodhisattva
be praised!
Don’t be too disheartened,
child!
Though you have
unfavorable
astrological features,
but you have a good heart.
Try to lead a decent life.
It’ll be bright again
after the rain, child!
Quan Yin Bodhisattva
be praised!
I’m grateful for your advice.
Come live with me,
all right?
I know your friends
are waiting for you.
All right, I’m returning
you to the sky and nature.
Heaven must have pitied me!
How tasty
these two fish will be
after being grilled!
O fish, I’m just like you.
Without a job, I’ll starve
to death anyway.
What good is it to eat you?
All right,
I know your parents
and friends are waiting
for you in the water.
I’ll let you free to go home.
In the future,
don’t be so foolish
and jump onto the bank.
A melastome plant!
I must eat it anyway,
even if I will die.
Gold!
Amitabha Buddha
be praised!
Quan Yin Bodhisattva
be praised!
Perhaps you heard
my prayer and let me
find this bag of gold.
I’m grateful to you.
I’ll have a comfortable
life from now on.
Buddha be praised!
Very good! The view
is very charming!
It’s a wonderful view
of the river from here.
With this bag of gold,
I’ll be able to buy a house,
have good food
and beautiful clothes.
But... what about the
ones who lost this gold?
They may end their lives.
And if they die,
what will happen to their
spouses and children?
But if this bag of gold
belongs to a rich person
or village tyrants who
loot people’s properties,
then it wouldn’t
make a dent to them.
Heaven has dealt me
a miserable fate;
I’m troubled
even being a servant.
So where do I
get the merit
to enjoy these riches?
There’s only one way:
I must return this gold.
Then I’ll have no qualms
of conscience.
I won’t harm
other people’s business
and live according
to Heaven’s will.
