[Episode 35]

Professor Qiu, President Huang wants to see you.

President Huang asked to see Professor Qiu alone.

President Huang.

Professor Qiu, I think you should resign.

- He asked you to resign?
- Yeah.

And you agreed?

I had no choice.

It was Ruan Wenzhao.

It doesn't matter.

This is my only option.

If I don't resign, President Huang will have a hard time explaining it to the board,

and Plan-O will be stranded.

Qiu Jianing, if you resign, that means you admit that all the rumors about you on the internet are true.

I don't care, as long as Plan-O is safe.

Promise me you won't go to see Ruan Wenzhao.

It already ended up like this. Do you still think it has nothing to do with him?

He teamed up with TKS to take revenge on you, to make you suffer.

If you lose your mind and go see him because of me,

that's exactly what he wants.

Then, do we just do nothing about it?

There will be a way.

Is the value of Plan-O to TKS

only worth five million dollars?

Yes, of course.

I can't believe Qiu Jianing is like that!

to talk to you only about the money.

As I said, you may know people but never what they're thinking.

Now, if you come to work for us,

we can make sure that Dr. Harry never shows his face

in the scientific community ever again.

Weiwei, come back to help me.

I can tell the sincerity from TKS.

After Qiu Jianing leaves, I'll be joining Plan-O on behalf of Tiancheng.

Sister Qian, is Qiu Jianing really going to leave?

"It will cause more harm to stop the expression of people than to stop the river."
(T/N: reference to "Discourses of the States" from the Spring and Autumn period)

You can see on the internet what trouble Qiu Jianing has made.

Let alone Professor Wang, and even President Huang won't be able to make up for it.

She has no other choice.

The betrayal incident of Qiu Jianing, a member of the Plan-O laboratory, is encountering more trouble.

A blogger uploaded a video at 10:00 a.m. this morning of Qiu Jianing negotiating with Gale,

showing the whole process of her betraying Plan-O. The evidence is solid.

What solid evidence?

They're all blind!

Shoot. Now it's very hard for my sister to clear her name.

It's inappropriate to talk to you only about the money.

This is a Harry Laboratory

Betrayer! She should be severely punished!

She was defending herself, and now the evidence is here!

- What a shame to the Chinese people!
- That's despicable!

Exactly the type of person that I hate the most.

What a slap in the face!

You're the betrayer!

Qiu Jianing was wronged, okay?

When she was making contributions to the country,

you were not even born!

Don't be angry. Is it worth it to argue with a group of trolls?

It is. I dare them to confront me in the face!

Why do you think they're called trolls?

They're hiding behind their screens all day without seeing the light,

and that's why they dare leave nasty comments everywhere.

See how I get them back.

Check my Weibo.

Xiaoye, you're speaking for my sister on Weibo.

Why not? They're shooting bullets at us, we have to get it back.

- But...
- It's been such a long time!

Are you willing to put up with it any longer?

Thank you, Xiaoye.

Your sister is my sister. We're a family.

I wouldn't let anyone hurt my family.

I'll share your post later, although I don't have a lot of followers,

at least I contribute with something.

Don't worry about it.

I will keep an eye on it.

I'll do my best.

Smile.

- Come here. Come here.
- What?

What?

Just talk, don't drag me like that.

Why are you so angry?

Come over here!

- Calm down... ouch.
- Stand here.

What's happening with Jiang Xiaoye's Weibo post?

I don't understand. It is what you saw.

Did I not tell you to calm down?

Xiaoye wanted to help me.

Ask him to delete it!

Why? It's already posted.

And I don't think it's a big deal.

You didn't read the comments, did you?

Read them yourself!

It's become a hot topic on twitter! Qiu Jianing

seduced her professor and sold national secrets,

this time you're taking the wrong side!

The game guru got money for posting this?

- He's done for. His public image is collapsing.
- Do you see clearly?

Because of Jiang Xiaoye, the story of Qiu Jianing betraying her country

is being spread across the whole gaming community again.

Give me back my phone.

But Xiaoye was just trying to help.

Help with what? He's just stupid.

How could you say that? You didn't do anything!

I didn't do anything?

Now the patients are all asking me what happened to Jianing

and doubting this experiment, doubting this project, wanting to quit.

What did I do? I've been comforting them every day.

I'm not like somebody who does nothing

but venting negative feelings.

Have I always been childish to you?

Forget it. It is what it is. Let's not talk about it anymore.

What do you mean forget it? Can you not talk to me as if I am a child?

But what you did is what children would do.

That's what you really think, isn't it?

Okay. I'm childish. I'm a child.

I'm always making trouble for you. Satisfied?

Here, Jiaxin. It's not time to quarrel. It already happened.

Now we need to think about how to make up for it, okay?

You sound like I'm the one who's always making trouble, and you're the one who's cleaning up the mess.

I am a person. Not a machine. I can't be as calm as you.

But I'm glad that I can still be angry and upset.

At least that proves I am a living person!

Jiaxin, you're taking it the wrong way. That's not what I mean.

I don't know how to say this, but I'm not angry with you.

You don't need to say or do anything.

It happened because of me, and I'll find a way to fix it.

From now on, I will never let you clean up a mess for me again!

- Hello?
- Where are you?

We've just arrived outside the building.

Leave! Many reporters are downstairs waiting to interview Sister Jianing.

What's up?

She says there are reporters... I don't see them.

Let us in! Let us in!

Qiu Jianing!

Qiu Jianing!

I didn't expect myself to become a celebrity one day.

Jiaxin posted it on Weibo, and Jiang Xiaoye forwarded it.

Now not only our community,

but everybody knows what had happened.

It's an era of the internet, things come and go easily.

Jianing, don't worry, they'll stop bothering you soon.

What about all the negative impact?

They say that I'm a betrayer, that I seduced Harry,

and...

and sold our national secrets.

This is what I can't bear the most.

Just cry if you want to.

It's just the two of us here. You don't need to pretend.

Tell me. What have I done wrong?

How could it have evolved into all this?

Jianing.

You have done nothing wrong.

Listen to me, I won't allow you to resign.

I don't care about Plan-O. All I care about is you.

I don't want you to be wronged.

Okay, let's go back.

It's cold here. Don't get sick.

Hello?

Jianing, where are you?

- I'm outside.
- I'm telling you, don't even come back today.

Don't come back.

What's wrong? Did something happen at the lab?

No. A lot of people are waiting downstairs to see you.

It's better for you to not come back to the dormitory for a while.

Okay.

Now,

I can't even go back to my own home.

Don't be afraid, Jianing.

Wherever I am,

your home will be there.

Tell me...

What exactly have I done wrong?

Why would they do this to me?

♫ Our boat is drifting in the endless, deep sea ♫

What on earth have I done wrong so they would do this to me?

♫ Because we are sailing towards the beautiful scenery ♫

♫ I have you with me ♫

♫ Life is not a lonely battle ♫

It's okay. I'm here.

♫ The road ahead is winding but you have
my shoulder to rely on ♫

♫ I open my hand carefully as it holds the slight lit flame ♫

♫ Tenderly entrusting all hope ♫

I knew you'd be here.

What do I have to do for you to let Qiu Jianing off?

As an investor, I'm also a victim of this incident.

I'd also hope that Professor Qiu is innocent. But unfortunately...

You know what Plan-O means to Qiu Jianing.

I can't believe you forced her to resign at this critical time.

If she resigns, that means she admits that all the defamation about her is true, do you understand?

So?

Are you distressed for her?

You want me to let her off?

Sure.

Come back with me.

- I can't.
- Okay.

Then you just watch Qiu Jianing suffer.

Just as I watched Xiang Lan suffer back then, yet there was nothing I could do.

Oh, right. This is just the beginning.

What do you want to do?

What? You want to beat me up? Do it.

You're crazy.

Serious leaks had happened at your laboratory.

- Can you tell us about it?
- One of my most respected students, Ning.

Ning. She has a special name.
- Yes, she is a Chinese girl.

I believe her Chinese name is...

Qiu Jianing.

A year ago she plagiarized the research results from my laboratory.

The Chinese company hired her literally the next day.

Can you tell us the name of this company?

Plan-O Laboratories, owned by Original Life.

Oh, it's the same company that caused sensation

in the science conference.

Anything else?

Chairman Qiu, I think you should stop watching it.

Ask Lawyer Chen to see me.

Chairman Qiu, may I ask what this is for?

I don't believe Jianing would do that.

I want justice for her.

- Go.
- Chairman Qiu, it's not that I don't believe in Jianing,

but this matter is not only just related to her own reputation.

It... It also relates to

the status of Chinese scientists in the international community.

Is it that serious?

Based on the information we have,

in recent years, China's scientific development has been growing rapidly

and poses a threat to many western brand-name pharmaceutical brands.

They now have something on us because of Jianing's incident.

If we don't deal with it properly, it will be a shame to the whole Chinese science community.

I think we need to be cautious about it.

Okay. I'll talk with Jianing first.

You can leave now.

Coming.

- Auntie.
- Jianing.

Your dad has been waiting for you upstairs for quite some time.

Go.

Dad, you want to speak to me?

I saw the videos on the internet.

Such a big thing happened, why didn't you tell me?

I can deal with it by myself.

How?

You're my daughter.

I know you wouldn't do anything like that.

Absolutely not.

So I'm asking the lawyer of my company

to make a copy of all the defamation on you on the internet,

save them as evidence and resort to legal actions,

I'll regain justice for you.

I won't let any of them off.

Dad, you believe in me?

You're my daughter.

What you would do, and what you wouldn't,

I know better than anyone.

The reason that I asked you to come back is to ask you

how you would like to deal with it.

- The company asked me to resign.
- No.

You can't resign.

But if I don't leave,

the whole project may be suspended.

If you resign,

that means you admit everything.

You should hold a press conference tomorrow

and explain everything.

Dad, you read what they said online.

It's not like if I clarify, people would easily believe it.

Plan-O is the years-long effort of the whole team,

and I can't let it fail because of me alone.

But if you say nothing,

wouldn't you feel wronged?

Dad, I have no other choice.

As long as the project is safe,

I don't care what happens to me.

Don't worry, Dad.

Remember,

dad is always here to support you.

No, I'm still worried about you. I want to get you a bodyguard.

Uncle.

- You accompanied her here?
- Yes.

Why didn't you come in?

I was afraid that you would not be happy to see me.

Good. You know yourself.

Dad.

Can you guarantee her safety?

I can assure you, Uncle.

Let's go.

Professor Qiu, I hope you can understand.

I still have a board of directors and investors to report to. I'm under a lot of pressure.

But President Huang, why would I admit to something that I've never done?

I do believe in you! But the public opinion doesn't!

Public opinion doesn't believe in me, but does nobody care about the truth?

If I resign, that would be admitting to the rumors!

The problem is that the press coverage has already

made some of our subjects request to quit the experiment.

People have different roles to play. As the representative of the company,

the first thing to consider is the interest of the company.

If you stay, Plan-O will most likely fail.

If you leave, the project can go on as usual.

I believe you know what the stakes are.

It is exactly because I personally think highly of you

that I proposed you should resign by yourself as a compromise.

And this is what I've fought for you!

If we don't receive your resignation letter before tomorrow,

we will send out a dismissal announcement.

You can think about it.

President Huang.

President Huang.

Jianing, what did he say?

If I don't submit a resignation letter before tomorrow,

the company will send out a dismissal announcement.

- Why?
- Even if they don't recognize your contribution, they should recognize your hard work!

He should stand in your shoes!

If they dismiss you, we'll quit too.

If they dismiss Jianing, we'll quit too.

- This is absolutely...
- That's right!

[China Chest Pain Center]

Science doesn't have borders. But scientists have home countries.

When our country can offer better platforms

and resources to its scientists,

so they see a better future,

then scientists would want to go back to their home countries

and give all they've learned to their countries,

instead of being a second-class citizen in a lab from another country

and even have to do something despicable.

So that's why you insist on having Plan-O be made in China.

That's right. Plan-O

can help China step on the world stage.

Our scientists and researchers can be proud wherever they

are in the world.

Actually, he should have retired

twenty years ago.

Only because of this Plan-O. Of course,

at that time, this project was just a concept.

He said he would wait two more years.

He would retire when it took shape.

In the end, two years after two years.

Now, twenty years have passed.

Old Wang did all this,

not only because it was his project,

but because it was an emotional attachment.

He always told me,

Chinese people are intelligent.

Chinese scientific researches aren't any worse than the western world.

The environment inside China right now is very good.

Do you know what? He wishes

he could be a few years younger.

He said that now is the time

for China's achievements.

Ma'am, I understand Professor Wang's feelings.

Then this research project,

I will entrust it to you.

It's Old Wang's lifetime dream.

Tell me.

Exactly what should I do?

Professor Su.

Congratulations. You've gotten your wish.

"If you don't want anyone to know what you've done, it's better not to do it in the first place."

If you want to blame anyone, blame yourself.

Plan-O, I will entrust it to you.

Zhou Xiaoshan.

I've decided.

I'll resign.

This time, I admit that I've lost.

I've made charts for all the projects in my hands, and I've noted the progress.

The password for the flash drive is the same as before.

If there are any problems, just give me a call any time.

- Professor Sun.
- I don't accept this.

I'm very grateful for your help during my time here.

There's no benefit at all for our project if I stay.

Qiu Jianing, you're just accepting it like this?

But I won't.

Professor Sun, thank you for your trust in me.

Just one phrase, "My name will be cleared if I have done nothing".

- But I still wish—
- Professor Sun, I'm leaving.

I hope we can meet again.

Brother Stone, what did Sister Jianing say?

She still insists on leaving.

What is this? It's too aggrieving!

Don't let her know about "Organization" rejecting my manuscript,

I'm afraid that she might blame herself.

I understand.

Qian Qian , don't hate Old Wang.

Why would I, Professor An?

When you came back this time, you targeted Jianing.

Don't you still resent Old Wang for helping her back then?

Professor An, that Qiu Jianing isn't as simple as all of you think she is.

Actually, Old Wang already knew about the termination a long time ago.

The day when it was announced, Old Wang came home and told me

that the child was wronged.

When Jianing was still studying in her undergrad,

she met Old Wang one time by chance.

So she discussed with him

on Harry's argument in the journal.

Then how do you explain Gale's video?

Even though I don't have proof

that Jianing is innocent,

Qian Qian, think about it.

If this were you,

would you sell your years-long efforts for that money?

Of course I wouldn't.

That's right.

♫ I forgot about the lies, forgot about the truth or falsehood ♫

- What are you all doing?
- Sister Jianing, if you're leaving, we're leaving too.

- That's right.
- We're all leaving.

- If you all leave, what will happen to Plan-O?
- Jianing.

- We'll be fighting for justice.
- Yes, fighting for justice.

Jianing, if there's no justice,

what are we fighting for?

If the company can fire you for its own profits today, who will it be tomorrow?

- Professor Sun is right.
- Right.

- Professor Sun, how many years have you worked on this project?
- Many years.

I know that during this time, you once had a chance

to go study abroad at Harvard for a year.

But you gave it up, why?

♫ It's my first time to see light in the darkness ♫

Zhang Yu, your parents moved to Australia.

They found a position in a good lab there for you. Why didn't you go?

Well, I....

♫ It's you who told me with a hug that life is more than this ♫

Then there's Xie Xiaoxiao.

Chunran. Tong Mo. All of you have studied hard for so many years.

If you want to, you can all go to a better lab, you could all get a higher salary.

Why have you chosen to stay here?

Sister Jianing, you don't have to flatter us, this won't work for us.

It doesn't matter what you say today. If you leave, we'll immediately leave too.

That's right. All of us will leave together.

I know.

Because you know that Plan-O isn't the same as other common medicines.

As long as the research succeeds,

it will not only bring a huge profit,

it will bring honor to our country.

This will mean that in this industry, mostly monopolized by the American and European pharmaceutical corporations,

China will be able to break out.

So, my own interest, compared with that of our national honor,

means nothing.

We don't want this honor from your suffering.

I don't feel that I'm suffering.

Really.

If each person only does what's best for himself,

this generation will make no progress.

But because there are a lot of people like you,

outstanding and selfless,

letting your abilities shine here,

so this world will become better and better.

So, I hope you will continue working here,

in order to fulfill all of our goals and dreams,

I'm entrusting Plan-O to all of you.

Sister Jianing!

Goodbye.

Sister Jianing!

I can't believe that Qiu Jianing had to go in the end.

She deserved it. Who asked her to be so arrogant?

But that matter really had a big effect.

You know what? Professor Sun originally had an article to be published in "Organization."

It passed through three reviews, but yesterday, it was rejected.

That was because of Qiu Jianing?

They say that if it gets to the 3rd review, everything is going well.

But with a rejection like this, of course it must be related to Qiu Jianing's incident.

Nowadays, these editors are very careful about manuscripts from China.

They're afraid of getting involved with plagiarism issues.

That Qiu Jianing really is the black sheep.

But she's so pitiful.

Don't throw stones at her when she's down.

What are you saying?

I've suppressed my frustrations with her for a year now.

I actually feel elated today, okay?

Who is that? Calling you so late?

Zhu Zhu. Hello.

Hello, Professor Qiu. Can I know when you'll be moving out of the dorm?

What's the rush? My resignation hasn't even been handed in yet.

After I hand it in, I'll go through all the formalities.

I'm just asking. I can make some arrangements after knowing your timeline.

- Just wait.
- Then, don't make me wait too long.

Professor Sun has already suffered because of you.

I don't want that to happen to me.

What do you mean?

You still don't know?

Here, Jianing.

You wouldn't think that Sun Lei's paper was rejected because of you, would you?

It had already been in the third review, but then suddenly got rejected.

What else could it be if it wasn't me?

Don't take it to heart.

You've done what you can. What else can you do?

You're right. What else can I do?

It'll quickly pass.

Plagiarism, treason, what even is this?
[Plagiarism + Treason]

These internet trolls are sick!

Do you even understand?

- They are all drunk!
- What are you looking at?

Sister. Nothing much.

Let me see.

Just some keyboard warriors.

You don't need to see it.

I'll search it up myself if you don't let me see it.

Okay, Sis. I'll show you.

Sister, these internet trolls just want to take this opportunity to vent.

They don't know anything about science, am I right?

Don't take it to heart.

Science won't tolerate a greedy vicious woman.

The science community doesn't allow such thieves to exist.

I'm graduating next year. I've been working so hard on research for the past five, six years.

I could've published my paper in an international journal with an impact factor of over twenty points.

But now I don't even think I could publish in a journal with ten points.

Who can save the reputation of the Chinese science community?

Who will make up for the losses of fellow scientists?

I thought that when I resigned, it would all be over.

Sister, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Sister.

These people are really...

Professor Sun, you're here to speak up for Qiu Jianing?

To tell you the truth, at this point, I can't help her.

As a matter of fact, I regret it.

I was supposed to go to the science conference.

But before going, Zhou Xiaoshan suddenly resigned.

Plan-O's research stagnated.

President Huang wasn't happy.

So he didn't allow Qiu Jianing to attend the conference.

Later, I found an opportunity to avoid the conference.

Headquarters had no choice, so they agreed for Jianing to attend.

But if I knew that attending the conference

could land me my next job and sell the project at such a high price,

I don't think I would've not attended.

Professor Sun, it's been a long time since we've seen each other.

You've become humorous.

You know that experiments are monotonous.

We have to find ways to enjoy ourselves.

Like I said, now that things have gotten to this point, I really can't help her.

Believe me. Jianing is innocent.

She didn't yield to either Harry or Gale.

It's important for us to trust each other during these crucial times.

Chairman Qiu.

- Chairman Qiu.
- Wait. Stop.

What do you want?

I'm sorry, Chairman Qiu, for being rude.

But I have something extremely important I need to talk to you about.

US five million dollars

and access to one of the world's best research facilities. Not good enough for you?

I think you can offer me a third choice.

We're happy to do whatever you want.

I've seen this video.

I don't believe Jianing is that kind of person. Look.

First Harry's interview, then TKS's public accusation.

Someone must want to frame Jianing.

To be more precise, someone is jealous of the huge profits behind Plan-O.

And Jianing happens to be an important member in Plan-O.

Then, why are you showing me this video?

I want to help Jianing to prove her innocence.

But I... need to use your company's network department.

What do you need me to do?

Chairman Qiu, it's obvious that this video has been edited.

But the original video has not been deleted. It's still saved on the hotel's server.

I can go get it. But it requires a huge amount of computational effort.

I need the support of staff and equipment.

Chairman Qiu, we can't wait any longer.

Jianing has already decided to resign.

If we let this keep escalating,

it‘ll greatly affect Jianing's future.

I've felt guilty towards Jianing

for all her life.

Her mother and I got divorced when she was around four or five years old.

I was too busy with work at the time.

I didn't know how to raise her at all, so I left it to the nanny.

When she got a bit older,

I married Jiaxin's mom.

But Wu Jie was also pretty young at the time.

She didn't know how to take care of such a young child herself.

To not cause conflicts within the household,

I sent Jianing to boarding school.

From then on,

from elementary school to middle school, to high school,

Jianing was at a boarding school.

Fortunately, she was a good child. She was obedient, got good grades.

She was good at everything. I was also proud of her.

But then I realized she came home less often.

I think we've grown apart because I...

because I hurt her.

I want to make it up to her now.

I won't allow anyone to hurt her.

Chairman Qiu. I understand how you're feeling.

Jianing loves you. She has never complained about you to me.

I love her, too.

I'm ashamed.

In the end, we, father and daughter,

don't even talk.

When she went abroad,

I constantly tried to find people to write her a letter of recommendation.

When she came back to the country, I wanted to give her the best life.

I even wanted to arrange her personal life for her.

But she just wouldn't accept it.

So sometimes when I think about it,

I'm really a failed father.

Chairman Qiu, love can be concerning her daily needs and being with her every day.

But giving her independence, missing each other can also be love.

But which love is better? This depends on

what makes Jianing feel the most comfortable.

Jianing is not an ordinary girl.

She has a lot of positive energy.

She loves her life, her job, and this world.

What we need to do is protect her enthusiasm,

and not to prevent her from being kind to this world.

Now I understand...

why Jianing likes you.

Call the network department. Tell them to get ready.

Yes.
