[Episode 25]
[When you are happy, do not lose the virtue that makes you happy. -- André Maurois]
Wait a second, Mr. Policeman.
[Spread, rebirth, tonality]
Mr. Policeman.
I am his supervisor.
I want to have a word with him.
May I?
Make it quick.
Hong Hui.
You want to know why, right?
Isn't everything good?
Why?
Liu Zi Feng.
Nothing is good.
You've been here for so many years.
Have you got what you want?
Are you really happy?
I just did what many people want
but do not dare to do.
Enough. Let's go.
You should go.
Sister Zi Feng likes you.
Me?
Yes.
Right.
-You go. -Go.
Fine. I'll go.
Sister Zi Feng.
It's very late now.
Why not we…?
You guys may leave now.
Goodbye, Sister Zi Feng.
(Nothing is good.)
(You've been here for so many years.)
(Have you got what you want?)
You are an excellent
team leader.
This is what happened.
Can your team offer better solutions
to these problems?
This proposal cost us so much time.
Now we have to give it to these small potatoes?
It seems
that we have established an exceptional team.
But the problem is that why this team
has never managed to meet the expectations
of audiences and the company.
He is the only one who can stay.
Don't push your luck.
Do you think you are absolutely right?
Of course.
Just like I knew your program would be a bust.
If we didn't make it,
we would let you take over.
Is this acceptable?
What are Qin Qiao's misgivings?
If this situation goes on,
it will do no good to both of us.
We have a closer affinity with her
than Lu Mang.
I hope that "Under the Mask"
will have you on the credits
as soon as possible.
Sister Zi Feng.
This is impressive.
Of course.
It's been a long time since we had a meal together last time.
I must impress you.
Right.
You arrived at the right time.
All the dishes have just been served.
All these dishes…
They are what you like.
Taste it.
OK.
You should eat, too.
OK.
Sister Zi Feng.
Here is your coffee.
There's no sugar in it.
If this ends up successful,
you take the credit because of your guidance.
What if it fails?
Teng Xiao Xiao went out to shoot it.
Even if she did a good job,
how come you are not the one
to take the credit considering your
insightful discussion and careful guidance?
Maybe nothing is perfect.
Lu Mang is gaining momentum now.
We shouldn't be overshadowed.
In my opinion,
you should focus more on
your due responsibilities.
The last thing I expect to see is
that you shoot yourself
in the foot.
I just did what many people want
but do not dare to do.
Mrs. Qin.
Teng Xiao Xiao and I are indeed close to each other.
She has been following "all in".
I've heard about that before.
Although I don't have a professional background,
I keep practicing
in my spare time.
So I tried to make a similar proposal.
I don't know who I can turn to.
So here I am,
hoping to get some help.
[Made in China, YO Media Company]
Well done.
I will review it carefully.
Sorry for being late.
All of you go through this new proposal.
I have reviewed it.
I think it works.
Since the old proposal was abandoned,
we must prepare ourselves
to carry out the new one.
We can't afford to lose this battle.
More so for you.
I must remind you
that the new proposal should get approved and filed as soon as possible.
The same mistake
must not be repeated.
I have notified Mr. Li
that Shen Ying would come to support you.
Mr. Yin is taking charge of the company for the time being.
If you have any problem,
go straight to ask him.
Shen Ying.
Tell them what to do next.
Mr. Lu.
Mr. Wu.
Mr. Lu.
Do you want to listen then?
You can aim high.
But never sell out morality for expediency.
Money and power
cannot bring you popularity.
You should know better than that.
This will backfire on you.
Mr. Lu.
I don't know what you are talking about.
Teng Xiao Xiao takes you as her friend.
Think about it.
[Welcome Shen Ying to join this] group [Made in China Proposal]
There are some imperfections.
You need to make some improvements.
OK.
Let's talk.
I'm working.
If you think it's OK,
we can talk right here.
[Thank you]
Say it.
Did Hong Hui force you to do so?
No.
Did your mother force you to do so?
Nobody forced me.
What of it?
Are you surprised?
If you want to report me,
go ahead.
I'm here
not to talk about this with you.
Why?
I don't know
why you have changed…
Have I changed?
Isn't it normal?
These things are happening every day.
Why wouldn't you feel surprised if it were someone else?
Are you surprised now because it's me?
No, because we are good friends.
Xiao Xiao.
It's true that you treated me well.
But I never asked for that.
And you never asked me
if that's what I need.
I'm doing what I want now.
So I did that.
Hello, Jiao Jiao.
Bring me the proposal "Dream".
[Dream] [Dream big and go for it]
You don't need to force me to leave.
I'll leave right now.
I will pay you the money back soon.
This is extravagant.
Yes.
Where is Xiao Xiao?
Boss, I don't know
how I should tell you this.
Well...
Xiao Xiao had a job transfer.
What's going on?
[Wangda Rd] [Qiyang Rd] [Heyin East Rd]
[Corporate culture]
(You are too young)
(to understand so many things.)
(Parents)
[Handpicked peppers] [Imported beef] (never hurt their own children.)
(In the recent appraisal,)
(you were the only one who failed.)
(I want to tell you)
(that there is no shortcut.)
(Anyone who can't represent YO Media's strength)
(will never survive here.)
(Xiao Xiao is not here.)
(If you have any trouble,)
(why not share it with us?)
(Right?)
(Xiao Xiao will help you, too.)
(It's not easy to get employed by a big company.)
(When Teng Xiao Xiao was here,)
(you were doing quite well.)
(But after she left, you messed up immediately.)
(The two of you have the same educational background.)
(Why does it make such a big difference?)
(Teng Xiao Xiao made such a big mistake)
(but didn't get fired.)
(If it were you, that would be impossible.)
(Xiao Xiao is not here.)
(If you have any trouble,)
(why not share it with us, right?)
(Xiao Xiao will help you, too.)
(If you want to stay in the planning department,)
(at least,)
(you should have the basic ability to come up with ideas.)
(If you can't,)
(you can just tell me.)
[Corporate Culture]
Self-examination is a must.
But what we have to do mustn't stop.
In fact,
a few business friends have come to find me several times.
He's very optimistic about our project.
Especially Lu Mang's "Under the Mask,"
which has already made a name for itself.
As long as we can keep it up and
continue with the high quality of expression.
There is no problem at all in taking these commercial activities.
Good.
With your matchmaking, I'll be relieved.
But you've had enough rest.
Re-agent this piece of business...
Thank you for your hard work.
You feel heartache for
your baby apprentice's hard work.
Seriously.
What heartache or not.
Wrong is wrong.
Being young can't be an excuse.
It's time she learned a lesson.
Don't you think
that the all-in project is made so big?
It took up a quarter of the company's target.
So I've instructed them
to hand over "all in" to Li Ruo from tomorrow onwards.
She's done a lot of big projects
and has a "clean" hand.
It will save you a lot of trouble.
Also,
the power of the company
can't always be in the hands of one person.
After a long time, something is bound to go wrong.
It's time for the young person.
Yin,
don't hesitate if you have a recommendation.
Experience is all from practice.
Don't you think so?
Then I won't be gentle.
I can't say it's a recommendation.
I think it's an archive.
For example, those in the planning department
experienced such a thing.
Then surely, it would be fainthearted to
let them do creative work again.
Lu Mang.
The person in charge in the first place.
He would return to the self-media sooner or later.
I think it's better to take this opportunity...
You're right.
You two are talking about something?
Then I'll leave first.
No.
Since she's here, listen to it.
Tell us about it.
How's it going?
He was in custody.
The lawyer's letter has been sent out.
But Leguo had already prepared.
As for "all in", they're already going through the project process.
So we're definitely not going to be able to shoo it.
Hong Hui takes the money
and the accounts are private.
So it can't be traced back to Leguo.
Hong Hui is really brainless.
The contract he signed was already faulty.
The man named Jiang is a professional headhunter.
He clearly is...
Enough.
I don't want to listen to any of these things.
I only want to know if these problems can be solved
before I go back to the United States.
Yes.
"All in" is such a big investment
and it has to be made.
Also,
have you finished handing it over to Li Ruo yet?
There's a person called Shen Ying on self-media
and she's come up with a new proposal.
Li Ruo thinks it's feasible.
And it is also able to stop the damage in time and pull back a set.
She told Shen Ying to go "all in" straight away.
There was a problem with hiring people.
Then we have to find out where the problem is.
Regarding the company's business,
listen more to Yin in the future.
Yin.
I'm actually...
My legs are numb.
Mrs. Qin, help me out, please.
Hurry up.
Do you still need to ask for permission?
Thank you.
It's not about who listens to whom.
I think we should discuss
the company's affairs with each other in the future.
Am I right? Mr. Li.
Teng Xiao Xiao,
don't torture yourself, okay?
Sister Nuo,
do you think I really have a problem
with being a person?
I feel that I can always
make a mess of excellent things.
Are you being led astray?
Can this whole thing be your fault?
There's nothing wrong with you at all. Okay!
After I heard Shen Ying
saying those things to me today,
it was really into my heart.
After listening to it, I felt very desperate.
I think I've known her for so many years.
I really didn't notice
that she would think that way.
It was so sudden.
Some people are like this.
They will give themselves all kinds of excuses
to cover up their despicable behavior.
Why do you have to hurt yourself
because of someone else's fault?
She is Shen Ying.
Do you remember one time in my place,
I once told you
that never fail to do any good things with good intentions.
I remember.
But...
I'm still feeling very sad.
It's like having a piece in my heart hollowed out.
Because Shen Ying is too important in my heart.
We two have known each other for six years
since the university.
I remember,
right there,
just there.
We just came to Beijing at that time.
They all said
they don't know what Houhai in Beijing looks like.
I mentioned it.
I said,
"why don't you and I
get a taste of the nightlife in Beijing?"
Then the two of us just
went to the bar around the corner.
We drank some wine that day
and it was so nice.
I found out when we were leaving
that I had just got my next quarter's rent,
my phone, my wallet, everything had been stolen.
At that time,
I was so desperate.
I didn't dare to tell my parents.
I was afraid that my parents would tell me to go home
and I remember Shen Ying told me
that it was okay.
One bed, two people, just squeeze on it.
The two of us would share one meal.
To be honest,
she was the one who helped me during that time.
If it weren't for her,
I really would have gone home a long time ago.
How could I still be here?
So of course
as long as I have anything good, I want to give it to her.
If I can help her, of course I'll help.
Am I doing this wrong?
I didn't say you were wrong.
But you have to know the truth.
A person in this world.
Only you can help yourself.
Even your biological parents can do nothing.
Do you think
that Shen Ying hasn't been
tangled in her mind for such a long time?
Has she ever thought of giving up?
Do you think she knows
what she will lose
after she has done everything?
I think she knows it.
Then tell me.
Shen Ying has given up on me now,
she is happy?
Teng Xiao Xiao, I really admire you.
You're still struggling with these issues.
Do you think it makes sense?
You're so heartless.
Fate can only be
handed over to time
and we can do nothing else.
All you have to think about now
is what you should do in the future.
The road ahead of you, how do you plan to move on?
[HR: Teng Xiao Xiao, after clocking in tomorrow morning,]
[come directly to the HR department. You're officially our employee now.]
This world is like this.
It's wonderful
and fantastic.
Now God has closed a door for you.
At the same time, a window is opened for you.
So now, stop thinking about nonsense.
Plan your way forward.
Think about what you're going to do in the future.
I've imagined hundreds of scenarios in my head
of me getting an official work permit.
But definitely, none of them were like this.
I feel like I'm pushing forward
but leaving everyone around me behind.
It's not that you've left them behind.
It's that you've gotten separated.
In the future, you'll meet some new friends,
some really like-minded friends.
That's the thing about making friends.
If you don't share the same values,
you all have to fall apart in the end.
If you really go home and can't face it,
you can come with me tonight.
Stay at my place from now on.
Never mind.
What should be faced has to be faced.
Okay then.
Anyway, you have to move sooner or later.
[I Love My Home]
I know it's quite uncomfortable.
I'll move out soon.
No need.
I'll move.
Jia Qi,
which one is better?
These two,
or this one on me?
I'm asking you,
you haven't even met the guy yet.
What if he's average-looking,
why do you put so much effort into it?
I don't care.
I have already figured it out anyway.
I'm thirty years old already.
I must get married this year.
Or else you'll be responsible for my marriage?
Look! Isn't it...
Shen Ying.
Take a look.
Which of these two dresses looks good?
Fan Jia Qi couldn't choose for a long time.
Both are good.
I still need to work overtime.
I'm leaving now.
What's wrong with Shen Ying?
Meng, Jia Qi.
Xiao Xiao.
Are you choosing the clothes?
Come here. You've come at the right time.
Which one is good?
This one.
This suits you.
This one?
Not feminine enough, don't you think?
It's for my blind date.
It's cool!
Attract the man when he sees you.
Is that so?
OK. If you say so.
What's with these two big suitcases?
Business trip?
Jia Qi. Meng.
I'm moving out.
Why?
Where to?
I'm moving in with a friend.
Well, we were fine together.
Did you and Shen Ying argue?
I... I don't know how to explain.
It was a last-minute decision,
so I haven't figured it out myself.
I'm in a rush
and didn't tell you guys in advance.
Sorry.
I'll buy you drinks a few days later
as an apology.
We are good friends.
Why can't we
just talk things through
if there's any disagreement?
Why do you have to move out?
Calming down for a bit
is good for all of us.
No big deal.
What's with this face?
It's not like we won't see each other forever.
It's alright.
Will you be coming to Jia Qi's birthday gathering and mine?
Of course.
I have prepared gifts for both of you.
Alright, then. See you there.
Sure.
I'm leaving.
Take care of yourself.
You hear me?
Good luck with your date.
Bye.
Gotta go.
Bye.
See you.
What do you think
is wrong with Xiao Xiao and Shen Ying?
Why does it look like
Xiao Xiao has offended Shen Ying?
Do you know
why we have bad signals
even if there are so many
base stations around?
Why?
Interference.
Write down the branch of the bank.
Careful with the account number.
OK.
Are you sure there are no mistakes?
Lucky for you.
Your official name tag is ready.
This is the salary sheet and the standard
for accommodation and meal allowance.
Read them when you're back.
Thanks.
Thank you.
That's all.
You may leave.
OK.
Your card.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Sorry. Thanks.
Thank you.
How about that?
Nice acting!
I'll do it next time.
OK.
One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand.
Congrats.
Hi, Mr. Lu.
You're promoted
to take Hong Hui's job.
But the coming up initiation of "all in"
takes most of the company's resources.
We still have a long way to go
to make "Under the Mask" a better program.
Shen Ying has made it into the team of "all in"
with the theme of "Made in China".
Sister Shen Ying,
is there anything that needs improvement?
We can revise it later.
You need to ask yourselves this question
and
there's no time for "later".
Send me the revised one to my email
before you get off work.
I'll wait.
OK.
Go.
Got it.
Now we have two similar topics,
first, ambition in career,
and second, successful start-ups.
Comparing these two,
I think the second...
Zi Feng,
Mrs. Qin is asking for you and me.
Just come with me.
You guys go on.
What's that about?
We're in the same company.
She didn't even say hi.
Yeah, right?
We work in the same company, even on the same floor.
Does she have to do that?
Right.
She didn't even use the word "sister".
How could she?
Too arrogant.
Did you hear how she talked to Sister Zi Feng?
"Zi Feng,
Mrs. Qin is asking for you and me.
Just come with me."
What does she want?
Shen Ying.
I think we should talk again.
You're a full-time employee now, aren't you?
Good for you.
There's nothing left for us to talk about.
Shen Ying.
I've thought about it.
There might be many flaws
in the things I've done.
I didn't pay enough attention to your feelings.
So you feel wronged.
I apologize.
However, concerning this matter,
you've also done things inappropriately.
Don't lecture me again.
I don't need your understanding.
You can save it, your pretended mercy.
We'd better go separate ways.
Shen Ying.
Why do you have to act to be so offish?
That gives us both a hard time.
This is not the first day we've known each other.
Why couldn't you just tell me what's in your mind?
Things just work better for you than for me.
Forget it.
You can't convince her for now.
[Radiance Jinhui]
Boss,
[Pancake] Did you buy the pancake here last time?
Yeah.
Ma'am,
one pancake, please.
I'd like to have sausages, two eggs,
more crisps, and chili.
One more serving of spicy strip, please.
Thanks.
OK.
You're this hungry?
Aren't you?
Ma'am, I'd like a normal one,
no chili.
Sixteen yuan.
OK.
This one's on me.
[Pancake]
Done. Your pancake.
Thank you.
[Pancake]
Smells great.
Thank you, pancakes.
Pancakes, hooray!
Do you like pancakes this much?
Boss,
the pancakes here
make to the top 3 best pancakes I've ever had.
How did you find this pancake stall?
That day, I asked you to work overtime
until very late, remember?
I was late.
It was over 3 AM when I got here.
This was the only stall still opening.
I had no other choices.
This kind of stall usually closes at three.
As part of the famous scene of "4 AM of Beijing",
these stall owners go home for supplements
and then come out again to sell breakfast.
After that, it's their bedtime.
Why do you like pancakes so much?
It's a long story.
There was a time when I worked overtime.
When I came out,
snow was pouring down.
I was cold and couldn't find a cab.
All that was left on the road were me and a pancake stand,
so I bought one.
I felt huge satisfaction
when I took the first bite.
From then on, I'm sure
that I love pancakes.
C'est la vie.
Even a petty thing
would make life much better.
Your pancake is ready.
Thanks.
Boss.
I don't understand, still,
why you asked me in the studio
whether I had been screwed over before?
See,
you are in your twenties
while I'm in my thirties.
We encounter the same problems despite the age difference.
You
have opened a door to your new life,
yet I am still struggling.
This is life.
We have
the challenge to overcome
at every phase of life.
We have to take it head-on.
I believe,
this time,
I can't overcome this.
That's not necessary.
Friendship needs tests.
What if things turn out differently?
Actually,
I suddenly realized today that the problem
between me and Shen Ying
wasn't formed in a day or two.
To untie it
takes more than a day or two.
When you fix it,
things will be better than they were.
Can we fix it?
