Although he often portrays world-saving heroes on TV, Hu Ge shows his down-to-earth sweetness on a recent episode of “By Your Side” as he shows the audience that you don’t need super powers to be a hero. From thousands of applicants asking him to spend a day with him, Hu Ge picked Su Chao, a city girl who decided to go teach in rural regions of Hunan.

In the show, Hu Ge first surprised the children with backpacks filled with school supplies. When he learned that because of how far the children have to travel to go home, none of them eat lunch, he also decided to forgo lunch to play with the children, even building them a basketball hoop. After school ended, he went with the teacher to convince a girl who had dropped out because her family couldn’t afford school, promising the girl that he will support her all the way to college.

“The flag is at your East, and the East is where the sun rises, and the East is also where you will walk out of this village. I hope you can study well with Teacher Su. With knowledge, when you grow up, you can leave this village to fulfill your dreams, and when you have the ability, you can come back and change your village’s life,” Hu Ge told the students during the flag-rising event in the morning.

Hu Ge had previously donated all profits of his last book to build a Hope School for children in rural regions. Upon finishing filming, the production team contacted the Hunan Youth Funds to build a new school for the children. You can watch the episode on Tudou here.

“If we have extra wealth, I think it’s only right that we provide these children with better conditions“- Hu Ge
