[Stand or Fall]

[Episode 29]

This is the progress of contract renewal for the expiring contracts for this month.

I offered them a 15% rent increase. The small brands have agreed.

The tenants on the first floor are still hesitant. They want to renew at the same rate.

Tell them that

a 15% increase is a reasonable rate for the current Wanli.

Ask them to ask around outside. They'll know that Wanli is adjusting our positioning.

If they don't grab the opportunity to renew the contract, when the mall is performing even better next year,

their locations might not be protected.

Okay. I understand. Oh, yes.

There's a tenant who doesn't even want to renew at the same rate and is asking for a reduction in the rent.

- Which brand?
- TL.

How long has it been since their Brand Development has been working?

Don't they know the world outside has changed?

Fine. I'll turn it down. Let them pay a higher rent.

Da Luo. is their image still based on a simple decor?

Yes. And the business is going downhill.

Go and tell TL that Wanli won't renew with them when their contract expires.

- Tell them to close the store.
- Why?

Didn't you say a few of the big brands don't agree to the increase?

If we allow them, those small brand will also reverse their promise.

So we must set the rules first.

Understood.

Director Guan, General Manager Ding has asked you to go to the conference room to discuss the sales plan for this quarter.

- I'll be right there.
- Okay.

This period has always been a golden time for sales.

It accounts for 45% of the annual sales.

But it's also the most competitive period.

We must invest heavily in marketing to ensure our place in the competition with other malls

to stand out and achieve the sales target.

Director Lei was previously in charge of the marketing department. You must be very experienced

in formulating promotional plans. Can you recommend some solutions?

A marketing plan?

In fact, I think everyone is competing for the runway now.

It's not effective to do marketing.

It's a waste of money and isn't necessary.

Not necessary?

Director Lei. You've been working in marketing for more than ten years, right?

How can you say it's a waste of money in marketing? It's not appropriate, is it?

Why not?

It's because the level of height I'm at is different now.

Our vision and structure have changed.

Is marketing the only way to sell something??

General Manager Ding, and Director Guan, you've been working for so many years.

Can't you find another way?

Why should we drop an effective path and go around to take a long way?

There are more solutions than difficulties.

Guan Wen, you should think about how to face the difficulties instead of fearing the difficulties.

Enough.

In a while, I'm meeting a supplier.

I have to leave now. I'll let you two talk.

Is Lei Kesen crazy? He did it on purpose.

He refused to fund marketing.

In this quarter, we won't be able to reach the sales target.

He wants to watch you die.

Yes, but that's what he wants. Why are you so agitated?

What do you think?

You're so smart. I'm sure you can figure out a way.

- Do you have any ideas?
- I...

I'm not a god. We have no budget or marketing resources.

It takes time to come up with a solution.

Do you have any solution that costs little money

but can Increase the customer flow and the sales?

General Manager Ding!

What brings you here?

This... This... Wang Meili asked me to bring Red Braised Lamb.

- It seems that I didn't bring enough.
- Hello.

This... That... Am I interrupting you two?

It's okay. You can continue.

But I took back your keys. How did you get a spare?

We're family, what are you talking about?

That's okay. I didn't see anything. We are colleagues, right?

It's fine. It's fine. I just wanted to talk to Guan Wen.

- It's about time for me to leave.
- Don't... Don't...

I... Did I spoil your fun?

Okay, we are all grown-ups. I'll just say a few words. Only a few words.

This... Wang Meili has wanted grandchildren for a long time.

I remember the end of this month is an auspicious day.

- Why don't you get it done (get married)?
- You want to get beaten up, Guan Tengfei?

I get it. You want to let nature take its course, right?

- Here's the deal, General Manager Ding. My sister is no longer young.
- Stop.

Listen, if she doesn't give birth yet, she won't be able to later.

Go way. Give it back to me. You took my stuff!

- You have to seize this opportunity.
- Please leave.

- Don't be shy.
- Just go. Shut your mouth!

- Get out.
- Wait. Listen to me, I...

Well... I'm sorry.

Please don't mind my sister's temper.

Where are you going? Let me drive you there.

I'm going to have a night snack.

Okay.

Is this the place?

General Manager Ding, here's the thing. Your car...

How much does it cost to buy it fully loaded?

I think it's made of real leather. And the LCD screen...

It's magnificent.

And the steering wheel.

So many accessories. It feels very sophisticated.

You can call me Ding Ning from now on.

I bought it a few years ago. It isn't valuable as soon as you buy it.

- You like cars?
- I do.

I just don't have many chance to drive.

Do you want to try?

It's not appropriate.

You can't randomly borrow a car, right?

You can drive for a few days if you like.

It's not appropriate, is it?

I will drive it for two days and bring it back to you. Okay?

I'm not in a rush.

Then...

This is our little secret.

Don't tell Wen Wen. If you tell Wen Wen, she'll definitely scold me.

Okay.

You are so kind.

This... Wen Wen has really chosen the right person.

Let's do this. From now on, your business is my business.

If Wen Wen ever does anything wrong, just tell me.

I'll win her over for you.

I can really help you with her.

Okay.

Do you think cutting down marketing expenses

can reduce the sales in this quarter?

Based on my robust experience, the upcoming three months

is a trophy for all the battling states.

Everyone is crazily fighting for customers' money and bodies.

If any mall doesn't invest in marketing, it would be committing suicide.

This is the most cruel way to take away the fuel.

What if they have another trick?

That's impossible. I don't think so.

You are so sure?

Okay.

I'll report it to Chairman Zheng.

Chairman Zheng keeps thinking that Guan Wen and Ding Ning are too solidly united.

It's not a good thing.

He hopes you can loosen them.

Okay.

But I heard that

Guan Wen and Ding Ning have an unusual relationship. They seem to be having an affair.

If it is true, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to sow discord.

Actually, there was something wrong between Ding Ning and Guan Wen in the beginning.

Early on, at a bar, Guan Wen had an argument with a woman for Ding Ning.

It caused a big stir at that time.

- Really?
- Of course.

So, don't judge people by their appearances.

Yes, you're right.

Could it be that both of you feel the same way?

You're the only one who can't see it, okay?

I told you already. He treats you differently. Don't you believe it?

You've chosen to not see it. What can we do?

But I always thought he treats me like a brotherly friend.

That's not strange. You have never judged men well.

So what?

I thought...

You went skinny dipping with him?

Don't tell me about your experience.

- Then what are you upset about?
- She's regretful that she didn't go skinny dipping with him.

When I went to archery with Zhang Chen, I took him along too.

Aren't you crazy, Chen Xuanxuan?

Everyone can see that He Yifei likes you. You can't feel it?

I didn't feel anything.

Chen Xuaxuan, your sense of feeling is really bad.

But He Yifei has never told me anything that goes beyond regular friendship.

It's because your relationship with Lin Hao was not over yet.

He is respecting the limits. Wait and see.

He will be ready to take action soon.

That's impossible. We're always together. I know him better than you do.

You're being too naive. Let me just ask you this.

If a man isn't interested in you,

why would he try his best to help you without resentment?

Is there no pure friendship between men and women?

Yes, but not you.

You two always know to sing in harmony and bully me together.

My head hurts.

I know.

That's impossible.

Get in the car.

Thank you, General Manager Ding, to give me a ride home.

You're welcome.

Why aren't you driving today, General Manager Ding?

The car is in maintenance.

I heard that you're shutting down TL's store.

I am not targeting them deliberately. But TL won't pay a higher rent.

I won't compromise on this term.

Once the rule of the game is broken,

other large tenants who are due would make trouble with me for all kinds of reasons.

How am I supposed to increase everyone else's rent?

The sales target is out of reach now.

The rental income is in trouble again.

We're getting hit from all sides, aren't we?

You're right. But if we cancel their store just like this, the store will be empty.

We will still lose a lot.

Why would I leave it empty?

Is General Manager Ding still not convinced of my work?

If TL wants to meet you tomorrow to discuss the contract renewal,

- will you meet or not?
- I will.

How can I not meet them? Feng shui always changes.

I must take advantage of this.

I've been waiting for Peter to come to pay respects

for a long time.

You are determined to win.

How is the color of this lipstick?

It's more glamorous than usual. You look more powerful.

That's exactly right. I'll show them that I'm not a pushover.

Director Guan, long time no see.

Long time no see, you two.

Where's Director Moli? Is she sick?

She left the company last month.

The new director of brand development happens to be busy and can't come today.

So I am asked to come with Director Peter to listen together.

When I get back, I will inform the director and report everything.

It's okay. Without Lydia, I can talk to you just the same.

However, we've refused to cooperate with TL.

We've already sent the email.

You've come again now. What do you want to talk about?

Guan Wen,

however we see this, you also worked at TL for many years.

You should feel some affection for this brand.

And I once was your leader.

You should at least show some respect.

If one keeps

looking back, there will never be progress.

I address you as Director Peter today, it's out of politeness and respect.

Please don't think otherwise.

In terms of business negotiation, you're Party B and I'm Party A.

Let's be clear on our positions.

Fine.

You don't want to consider favors. Wanli is such a big company.

You should at least be ethical.

When your business was in bad shape and begged us to renew your contract. What happens now?

Wanli has improved and risen. So you want to kick us out?

You should at least be grateful.

The mall is open for business, not for charity.

Here. Present the data for the first half of the year to Director Peter.

In the first three quarters, the average customer flow has nearly doubled at the mall.

Sales increased by 76%.

The unit price has increased 231%.

TL's average monthly sales dropped 14%.

The flow of customers entering the store dropped 11%.

When the overall environment improved, TL's performance dropped instead of improved.

Linda, do you know why?

The brand's customer quality and products don't match the mall.

It has nothing to do with our brand.

Our store's image isn't good.

The brands you've introduced have brand-new store images.

We still have a simple decor of a temporary store.

Of course, the business is adversely affected.

If you agree to renew a long-term contract with us,

our company will renovate at our own expense.

There is a Chinese saying,

"Don't lose the opportunity, or it won't come again."

I talked to you before about a long-term contract renewal and renovation.

But you did not agree.

But now, I'm sorry. We are the ones who won't agree.

You still have two months before the contract expires.

You should hurry and arrange to exit the store.

I have something else to do.

Why did you answer her questions?

This is causing trouble for us.

But Wanli obviously doesn't want to talk anymore.

If we push her further, we'll only make the relationship get worse.

- Why not take a step back...
- You understand nothing.

How long have you worked in brand development?

You are right.

But if we can't work it out officially, can we think of other ways?

- Are you from TL?
- You are Director Lei from Wanli?

I heard that you are the Chief Operations Officer at Wanli.

About the contract renewal, can we think of something?

Guan Wen set up a stumbling block for you?

She is narrow-minded and holds grudges. It's difficult to deal with her.

Exactly. You know, when she was at TL, she already caused us a lot of trouble.

Now it's more troublesome.

Do you think her boss will help me? The one named Ding Ning?

It's no use to ask him for help.

They are on the same page.

How about this?

I can make an introduction for you. You can talk with Chairman Zheng.

That's great.

But I don't know him that well. We met once or twice.

That depends on how you cultivate friendship.

Don't worry.

I promise I won't make things difficult for you.

Everything's fine here. It's mainly here.

When... Whenver I drove it, I was always extra careful.

But that day, I had no idea what happened, but a takeout delivery guy came near me. I avoided him.

So I turned the steering wheel this way.

- With a bang, I bumped into him.
- I'm fine. It's fine.

Take it to Store 45 tomorrow. It only needs to be repainted.

So this...

Then you... Absolutely don't tell Guan Wen.

- You know her temper, especially...
- What are you hiding from me?

Your car key.

Did you borrow his car?

So your car wasn't sent at maintenance. You let Guan Tengfei borrow it.

Get out of my way.

Well, you can go to the building.

Get out of the way!

You crashed the car?

Guan Tengfei, if you don't cause any trouble for me, does it make you feel uncomfortable?

It doesn't matter. It's not that serious.

Exactly. It's not that serious.

Look at this. You shouldn't get angry with him. He...

Brother-in-law doesn't care about it, right?

Also, let me tell you this. This accident is not entirely my fault.

What makes you say so?

Guan Tengfei, you own the car? Did you buy the insurance?

You borrowed his car and hit it. You told me that it wasn't your fault.

Why did you say that?

Because it really isn't my fault this time.

Guan Tengfeng, when do you ever think it's your fault when you cause trouble?

You always had an excuse. It's never your problem.

Why can't you at least face your problem and mistake for once?

Sure, sure, sure.

I will pay for the damage, okay? Isn't this what you mean?

- I'll pay for the money.
- You will pay for it?

How will you pay? Have you got a job?

Do you have money to compensate?

I... I'm really too tired to scold you.

- Go home now.
- See you next time.

It's fine. It's fine.

- Don't be mad.
- This is for you. I'm sorry.

After you've had the damage repaired, tell me how much, and I'll transfer the money to you.

It's not much.

No, I must give you the money.

Do we have to separate the money so clearly?

Ding Ning, whenever my older brother asks you for help later on,

can you let me know right away?

I got busy and forgot.

Did you forget, or you're deliberately helping my brother to hide it from me?

With Guan Tengfei's personality, he'd rather lie down than sit down. I'm his younger sister.

I'm duty-bound to clean up the mess for him. But I don't want to involve you.

I don't think your brother is that kind of person. He didn't hit my car on purpose.

Besides, I think you should at least listen to the reason behind it. then it's not too late to be angry.

You think so? That means you don't believe what I say.

Do you think you know my brother better than I know him?

You want to reform him

with your impartiality and help you restore self-confidence and independence?

That's not what I mean.

I don't know what he did before. I cannot judge it.

But in this case,

he was already feeling guilty.

But this incident was caused by him. He is the one who started the whole thing.

If he hadn't borrowed the car from you, things wouldn't have developed this way.

So, Ding Ning, I hope that in the future,

you won't interfere in our family matters anymore, okay?

Your family matter?

Why do you separate me from your family matter?

We're not married yet.

I don't want to mix the two families so soon.

What do you mean? Am I not in your future plans?

Is it because we're not married, so you have a strong sense of boundary between us?

And we must separate what's mine and what's yours?

We can take time to talk about the future.

For now, I want our relationship to be more simple.

Don't involve these irrelevant people and things.

Guan Tengfei is a troublemaker.

It's his personality and temper.

Yes, he only borrowed a car from you today. What if he borrows money or house tomorrow?

Will it affect our relationship?

Ding Ning, you are a rational man. You understand it, don't you?

Being rational is not applied to the family, or it's selfishness.

You mean I'm selfish?

I didn't mean that.

All right, I don't want to talk anymore. That's it.

Hello, Yancheng? My car got hit. Check how it got bumped.

Don't be like this. Let go of me.

We have nothing to do with each other. Don't do this to me.

No, Brother. You can't leave. If you leave, I'll get scolded.

Please. Please let me go, okay?

Guan Tengfei!

What are you doing?

Why are you back? Look at the eggs. They are all broken.

It's over. Wang Meili is going to scold me to death when she returns.

Did my brother bully you? Don't be afraid. Tell me.

I'm sure he won't pass the buck. We won't let you be a single mother.

W-What single mother? This child is not mine.

Why won't they let you go? You dare not admit your actions?

- I didn't do it.
- Mr. Guan, this is yours.

It's not yours, so why is she pestering you?

Wifey, I brought back these things.

Wifey?

Love triangle.

- This...
- Have a seat. Thanks.

- Thank you, Auntie.
- It's fine.

This time, we are really grateful to Mr. Guan.

Without his help, my wife and the baby in her tummy would have been in danger.

- Hello, driver, where are you? Why haven't you arrived?
- Is the car here yet?

Follow the GPS. It's on the side of Kaixuan Road.

there's a Bank of Communications at the side.

Please don't cancel it, sir! Please.

No. He hung up.

Taxi!

Wait, what's the matter?

What's happened to you?

Brother, I beg you to take us to the hospital.

Hold it, hold it! We'll be there soon.

Okay. Okay.

Brother, can you go any faster? Please.

- Okay, okay.
- Just hang in there a little longer.

What happened then? What happened to your wife?

She's fine now. The doctor said it was lucky that she was brought in just in time.

She stayed in the hospital for two days. She just came back today.

So that's what happened.

Mr. Guan ended up getting into a car accident. I'm really sorry.

We'll pay for the car repair.

- Yes. We'll pay for the repair.
- No need. No need.

I hit the car. It's not your fault.

As for the repairing cost,

my younger sister can pay.

What did you say?

Walk slowly.

- All right, we'll get going then.
- Bye-bye.

- Drive slowly.
- Thank you.

Let's go.

About the car crash...

You took it seriously? I knew you would take it seriously.

I was joking with you just now.

Well, that...

Pay for the repair fee first, and I'll pay you back gradually, okay?

- It's okay. I'll pay for it.
- Don't worry. I will definitely pay you back.

- I want to say...
- Don't worry.

I misunderstood you about the car crash.

Sorry.

I don't think your brother is that kind of person. He didn't hit my car on purpose.

And I think you should at least listen to the reason behind it.

It's not too late to lose your temper again.

[Ding Ning]

- Hello.
- Hello?

You are not home.

I'm having a drink with Yancheng outside.

When will you come back?

Probably late. What's the matter?

Nothing urgent. I just want to see this quarter's sales plan.

I want to discuss with you to see if we can find a way out.

Let's have a meeting tomorrow. There's been a change.

Okay.

Anything else?

Not really. We'll talk in the company tomorrow.

Bye bye.

Is it that hard to make a compromise?

I was in the wrong.

Is it that hard to say it?

Your girlfriend urged you to go home?

No. She asked about the company.

Why didn't you tell her? You found the contact information of the pregnant woman.

And you gave her Guan Tengfei's phone number.

I hope the siblings can break the ice.

Since the problem is solved and I achieved my goal, why bother to overdo it?

It's so unfair to do good deeds without getting the credit.

She has her persistence and minefields.

I can understand her.

She called you so late at night. But she didn't have anything urgent.

I think...she wanted to admit her mistake

but felt embarrassed.

You felt it too, right?

But she didn't say it out.

What are you going to do?

Just wait.

I bought too many just now.

You can help drink a cup.

Otherwise, it will be wasted.

Thank you.

Well, since everyone is here, let's start now.

For the past few days, Chairman Zheng has been asking about the sales and marketing plan for this quarter.

When can we hand it in?

Within the whole group, we are the last one.

Why don't we set a deadline?

This Friday, send the report in.

Director Lei, we are on the same level now.

As the new COO, you can help sales a little, right?

Otherwise, you can set a direction.

I don't have the budget to help you draft the marketing plan.

You figure out sales methods by yourself.

Let's wait a while longer then.

Wait for what?

So sorry.

I woke up late and was late for the meeting.

Such a good position! Is it specially left available for me?

Mary, you haven't announced my appointment yet?

Newest news.

After discussion by the group's management,

Deputy Director of Investment Division, Xiao Yancheng, is transferred

to be Director of Marketing Department of Wanli Mall.

He will report directly to General Manager Ding Ning.

COO Lei Kesen is no longer the Director of Marketing.

This change is effective immediately.

How come I didn't know about this appointment?

I don't report to you, Director Lei.

Since the structure has changed, we can hold the sales planning meeting on another day?

Hello, Assistant Chen. It's me, Lei Kesen.

Why is Xiao Yancheng coming to Wanli to be in charge of marketing?

Why?

Because I'm lousy in investments.

We lost a lot of money last year. The Group got scared.

So they assigned me to this huge pit called Wanli to punish me.

I heard that Xiao Yancheng proposed the employment and proposed the transfer to Old Chairman Xiao.

It was approved by Board Director Zhu.

Chairman Zheng has had closed meetings in Beijing these two weeks.

We received the personnel announcement only this morning.

But... So you've taken the Marketing Department away from me.

How can I take on Ding Ning in the future?

Look, I suddenly parachuted down to occupy the position of Director of Marketing.

Wouldn't I enrage those two villains, Chairman Zheng and Lei Kesen?

Can you be more serious?

Don't always look cynical.

Now that you're working at Wanli, can you shoulder this responsibility?

The thought of it makes me excited. But don't worry.

But don't worry. I'll cooperate with you to beat up Lei Kesen.

How do deal with Ding Ning?

Director Lei.

Chairman Zheng promoted you to this position to let you develop solutions not to ask questions.

If everything goes smoothly as you wish,

then he can promote anyone. Why should he choose you?

Figure something out!

Xiao Yancheng.

I heard that you've always looked down on Wanli.

So it's a big sacrifice this time.

You can tell from my face, right?

A fortune-teller saw me and said, I have big noses and deep lacrims.

These are the traits of valuing relationships and righteousness.

In order to help Ding Ning to return to the Group,

- I really wracked my brains to...
- You're too dramatic.

Wracking your brain...

I have a meeting with the finance department this afternoon.

Why don't you two

take your time to eat.

He is a little slow.

So make it simple and clear to him.

Just kill him with your bare hands.
