Hello.

Where are you now?

Nearby. Five minutes.

You pulled two all-nighters.

You must be exhausted.

In our line of work,

who doesn't stay up late?

I'm used to it.

Once the proposal is approved,

I'll catch up on beauty sleep.

Don't put too much pressure on yourself.

Just perform as you normally do.

With your ability, you've got this.

By the way, I sent you Tongchen's info.

Take a look.

Hello?

Can you hear me?

Hello?

(Shengcan Culture)

- Morning, Jin.
- Morning.

Jin.

The people from Tongchen
are already here.

Ms. Shen has gone in.

Okay.

- Morning, Jin.
- Morning.

Jin, your coffee.

You're here. Hurry.

Let me introduce you quickly.

This is Tongchen Technology's
tech partner,

Mr. Li.

He's also a recently returned

rising star in tech.

And this is my Creative Director,

and also my partner,

Ms. Cen.

Hello, I'm Cen Jin.

Li Wu.

Wu, as in mist.

Let's begin directly.

Okay.

I'll give a brief overview first.

In this "Earth at the Critical Point"

Environmental Art Exhibition,

we want to start from the theme

of "bond".

Exploring the bond between
Earth and humanity,

and the bond among all living things.

Humans and the natural world

are not isolated or separate.

Humans and mountains, rivers, seas,

plants and forests,

and all animals,

we've always been part of nature.

All living beings are interlinked

and interdependent.

It's just that many times,

we forget this connection.

(Exhibition Highlights)

I went to the nearby mall

and bought you a digital watch.

That's all.

This is the core of our promo plan.

As the proposal progresses,

we'll continue to add on,

and refine the details.

Thank you, everyone.

Sorry about that.

But I think this really suits him.

I'd like to ask,

what Ms. Cen mentioned

about the bond between
humans and all beings...

I'm wondering

if just a few images would be enough

to clearly convey the concept

at our exhibition?

We certainly can't rely solely

on a few images to convey

the deeper meaning of "bond".

At the exhibition,

we'll have multi-media

presentations,

interactive experiences,

as well as physical exhibits

and other formats,

working together

to build the rich meaning

of the theme "bond".

So visitors can understand

the deeper significance behind it.

Ms. Cen, how do you view

the meaning of the word "bond"?

To me, a bond

is the connection
and entanglement between lives.

It's something you can't cut off,

a responsibility and a tie.

Like a kite held by a string.

Even if the wind blows it far away,

you won't worry

that it'll lose its direction or fall.

As long as the string is unbroken,

the bond will continue to exist.

Of course,

a bond isn't limited

to emotional ties between people.

So...

So, does that mean for you, Ms. Cen,

that if this string is cut,

whether by storms or by someone's hand,

all the ties within it

will completely disappear?

Then, for something intangible,
like feelings,

how would you determine

whether it exists?

It's alright.

I was just asking

a small question of my own.

You don't have to rush

to answer me, Ms. Cen.

Going forward, Tongchen and Shengcan

will have a long period of cooperation.

I hope that through

our joint efforts,

we can interpret the word "bond"

in a better,

deeper way.

Thank you in advance, Mr. Li.

Li.

Li.

Not here?

Li, where's your grandson?

Li.

Alright, thanks.

I'm not thirsty.

Yan.

Okay.

You're called Li Wu, right?

We're here to help you.

Sit.

Li Wu.

This is Mr. Wu.

This is Ms. Cen.

Ms. Cen

is actually Mr. Cen's daughter.

The two of them

came all the way from Yi City

just for this.

Hello.

Very polite, too.

Good grades as well.

Top of the class every year.

Show them off a bit, won't you?

No need.

It's really

hot here.

Though the air is good.

Hey.

Where are you?

I'm in the restroom.

What about the Tongchen people?

I just saw them off.

Seems like they're

pretty satisfied with the plan.

Do you have plans for tonight?

If not,

I thought we could

treat them to dinner tonight.

Try to finalize the contract
as soon as possible.

Alright.

Do you really understand
what a "bond" is?

Love is,

hate is too.

But ignoring it is not.

All these years,

you never contacted me once.

Sorry. I couldn't make it
to the afternoon meeting on time.

Let me first make a toast to everyone.

Thanks, Mr. Cheng.

You must be starving.

Dig in.

Alright.

This yellow croaker with rice cake

is the signature dish here.

Normally, you can't get it
unless you reserve.

Try it quickly.

Alright.

This goose liver lotus root sandwich
is also famous.

Yes.

This one's delicious too.

Ms. Shen,

so for our next project,

will you be the one
coordinating with us?

For a big project like Tongchen,

everyone in our company
will definitely be involved.

But it will be Ms. Cen

who takes full responsibility.

Full control.

Don't be fooled by Ms. Cen's young age.

She is very capable.

Previously,
for the Bingdian Technology promotions,

did you pay attention to them?

That was fully managed

by Ms. Cen.

That's perfect.

We thank you in advance.

This is what we should do.

So should we...

We will give 100% effort,

striving to do our best.

Let's make a toast to the two of you.

- Here, thank you, Mr. Li.
- Cheers to a good collaboration.

Thanks, Mr. Cheng.

- Cheers.
- Thanks.

You've been quiet

all night.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Ms. Shen.

Jin.

My friend came to pick me up,

so I'll head off first.

Okay.

Bye.

Stay safe.

Okay.

I also called a driver.

How are you leaving?

I also booked a car.

Why didn't you ask Dr. Lu

to pick you up?

It's too late.

What's late about it?

You don't know how much

he loves opportunities like this.

My driver is here.

I'll go first.

Okay.

See you next time.

All right.

Leaving.

Ms. Cen Jin,

we'll leave first.

See you next time.

Bye.

You deliberately acted
like you didn't know her

and made me feel awkward.

No, I didn't.

Still denying it?

Your face was stiff like plaster.

Really, I didn't.

"Really, I didn't."

Come on, stop lying to me.

Today, you insisted

on coming here, right?

Since you're here, be carefree.

We'll still be collaborating later.

Du,

stop at the intersection ahead.

Okay.

Alright, I won't say more.

Ms. Shen created a work group.

You should reply too.

(Ms. Shen: Thank you for your trust.)

(Looking forward
to a pleasant collaboration.)

(Zhang Xiaojiao: Win-win)

(Moments)

Lend me your phone.

I'll return it later.

(Good friends meeting)

(Passion never cools)

(Believe in yourself. You can
become whoever you want to be.)

(New experience: Today I'm an archer.)

(New experience: Today I'm an archer.)

Who's that guy?

Jin's boyfriend?

(Why didn't you call Dr. Lu
to pick you up?)

(You don't know)

(how much he loves
opportunities like this.)

Done using my phone?

(Chun Chang: What's going on?)

(He's not really divorcing, right?)

(He's so heartless.)

(Ungrateful scum.)

Hey.

Hello.

Is this Ms. Cen Jin?

May I ask who this is?

I'm Li Wu.

Liwu?

Who are you?

I'm a student from Yunfeng Village

who was sponsored by Mr. Cen before.

Hello?

Are you still there?

I'm here.

May I ask why you're contacting me?

Sorry to bother you.

Well...

Last year,

for some reason,

I couldn't take
the college entrance exam.

I still want to continue studying.

Could you help me?

You didn't continue your studies?

I remember the tuition was sent on time

to your grandfather's account.

My grandfather passed away a year ago.

I'm sorry.

I'm living with my aunt now.

(Banling)
Last year, my uncle told me our family

was struggling.

Around the time of the exam,

he pulled me out to work.

So, I completely missed the exam.

This year, I want

to resume studying.

Go back to school.

But...

they wouldn't allow it.

I called Mr. Wu.

He told me to contact you.

What does that mean?

I don't know either.

But he said

that you two have separated.

So...

he gave me your contact information.

Wait a moment.

I'll call him.

This is me

using a borrowed phone.

Two minutes.

(Yiwen Creative Dream)

What's wrong?

The kid from Shengzhou

called me.

You just pushed it onto me?

This was started by your father.

How to decide

is also your family's matter.

Aren't you involved?

We all are.

So I leave the decision to you.

Of course.

You can still be a good person.

After all, you've always been so noble.

This concerns a child's

life-altering matter.

How can you speak

so lightly?

Don't you find it cruel?

You don't understand

these kinds of kids.

But I've seen many.

Kids who voluntarily give up
the exam to work.

They want to earn money
but find the work too hard.

Now, in front of you,

pitifully, wanting to go back
to study for college.

Wu Fu,

you don't have to speak so harshly.

Not everyone lives as easily as you.

Life isn't that simple for everyone.

He wants to move forward,

so he must endure
the hardships he faces.

If he can't persevere,

whose fault is it?

Besides, I've seen

that contract.

Even if we don't manage it,

someone else will take over.

So, in your eyes,

human relationships

are just contracts that can
be terminated anytime?

In your heart,

our relationship is
the same thing, right?

Alright.

I don't want to argue with you.

I'm still working. I'll hang up.

Who are you looking for?

Where is the boy
who was using your phone just now?

I've already left.

The car has arrived. I can't wait.

It's fine now.

(Shengzhou)

(Yunfeng)

Sorry.

(Yunfeng Village Party Committee)

Excuse me, may I ask

if Mr. Yan Changsheng is here?

You mean Mayor Yan?

He's already been promoted to mayor?

Right, I'm looking for him.

He hasn't been in charge

of work in our village

since last year.

No problem.

I'm just a reserve cadre
in this village.

What do you need him for?

I can help you register.

Okay.

Here's the situation.

I'm looking for a child.

His name is Li Wu.

A couple of years ago,

when my father went
to the countryside for research,

he learned about Li Wu's situation

and became his sponsor.

I helped him with some procedures.

I heard he recently

had some trouble,

so I came to check on him.

I know Li Wu.

Come, I'll take you there.

May I ask your name?

My name is Cheng Lixue.

You can just call me Cheng.

Thank you, Ms. Cheng.

Slow down, the road is slippery.

Uncle.

Busy, huh?

Turn ahead.

That's Li Wu's aunt's house.

Uncle.

Busy, huh?

After Li Wu's grandfather passed away,

has he always lived

with his aunt?

Yes, he lived there all along.

After missing the college exam,

he got his diploma

and his uncle sent him to the mine

to work and earn money.

It's such a pity for this kid.

His grades were always excellent.

He's smart and hardworking,

and kind-hearted.

If it weren't for his uncle,

he would have already been admitted.

Such a bright future.

But our sponsorship funds

were always transferred on time

to the bank card.

The child is alone and helpless,

so he needs relatives
to take care of him.

Ahead, we're almost there.

Run!

Still running?

Where are you going?

Come here!

You scoundrel!
You're looking for death!

You've been freeloading for so long.

Now you want to run?

It's not that easy!

Don't hit him.

Get lost!

Asking to get hit?

They're always like this.

Get lost!

Move aside!

Who let you run off?

Who let you run off?

It's fine.

I want to go.

You can't stop me.

I'm not stopping you.

Secretary Cheng.

Aunt, what's going on with these two?

- Nothing.
- You're with me.

- Educating the kid.
- Eating my food. Give it back!

Settle it all.

Go wherever you want.

All my wages from the mine

are with you.

Talking back, huh?

Talking back, huh?

What? Want to hit me?

Li Wu.

Uncle, what are you doing?

- Wu.
- This kid won't listen.

Just teach him a lesson.

It's nothing.

Why don't you teach

your own child like this?

Who is she?

She's been helping

the kids in our village study.

Mr. Cen's daughter.

She came to see Li Wu.

Do you remember me?

Yes, I remember.

Can I talk to him alone?

Sure.

Wu, hurry.

Your room.

Come. Uncle, have a seat.

Hey, there's something on your mouth.

What's that?

A solar panel.

There's no electricity inside.

Did you make this yourself?

You study here?

Can I take a look?

(High School Physics Olympiad
Real Exam Questions)

Last year's mock test?

Do you still have

your grandfather's bank card?

It's with him?

Alright, don't eat anymore.

You go over there

and sit.

Let's eat the porridge together.

Secretary Cheng.

Have a seat.

Mom.

Ms. Cen, sit here.

Stop making noise.

Wu,

come eat.

Mom.

Wu.

I won't eat.

I'm here today for one thing.

Why don't you let Li Wu go to college?

You'll even complain, huh?

Look at my situation.

Do I have money to send him to college?

His old man is dead.

I'm the only labor left at home.

Secretary Cheng knows that.

Do you think money falls from the sky?

So many mouths to feed at home.

He's already graduated from high school.

You want me to work my life away

to send him to college?

Forget it.

As far as I know,

Li Wu's grandfather's inheritance

is all in your hands.

Nonsense inheritance.

Those two broken houses of his

aren't even enough

to pay for his funeral.

Inheritance?

If you let him continue studying,

tuition for repeating a year,

including college tuition,

you won't have to worry.

He has a good foundation.

If he focuses on studying,
he can definitely get in

to a good school.

The return for you in the future

will only be more, not less.

I can't wait.

The sooner he earns, the better.

He's already an adult.

Please respect his wishes.

You don't need to tell me this.

He lives here with me.

Eats my food, and drinks my drinks.

He has to help earn money.

If I let him work,

he goes to work.

Don't think that having a backer

changes anything.

College?

Don't even think about it.

You're not meant to.

Secretary Cheng.

I'm going out for some air.

Uncle,

let's reconsider.

There's someone sponsoring
the kid's studies.

In the future, when he's successful,

he can earn more.

Let's think about it again, alright?

No need to consider.

Ms. Cen.

Relationships in this village,

can be simple if you say so,

or complicated if you say so.

But in the end,

they are family.

I know.

It's been raining a lot lately.
They are also fixing roads here.

It's unsafe to walk at night.

I'll take you to have a meal first,

and you can stay here for a night.
You can leave tomorrow.

Alright.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Watch your step.

This is the place
where our village teacher

is staying for the time being.

I've already had someone clean up.

There's hot water in this thermos.

See if you need anything else.

You can call me.

Okay, thank you.

Alright, then rest early.

I'm heading back
to the committee.

Okay, good night.

(Flashlight)

(Wu Fu, Divorce Agreement)

(Wu Fu)

(Divorce Agreement)

(I've drafted the agreement.)

(Take a look first.)

Who is it?

It's me.

Li Wu.

There are many mosquitoes
in the countryside.

I went to the village shop

and bought some things you might need.

(Mosquito coils)

The power is out.

I was worried it would
be inconvenient for you.

These will make things a bit easier.

Li Wu.

Come in. Let's talk.

Why did you think of coming to me?

I want to continue studying.

Only with success in my studies

can I have the chance to repay

those who treated me well.

I don't want to give up.

I want to leave this mountain.

So...

I want to try

every possibility.

Then next,

what's your plan?

I don't know either.

I just

want to give it a try.

Do you believe in fate?

If someone told you,

no matter what you do,

you cannot change your fate,

would you believe it?

No.

I don't believe it either.

I only believe in myself.

As long as one doesn't
give up on oneself,

there's always a way to solve problems.

It's too late today.

You should go back and rest.

Okay.

Then I'll go.

Be careful on the way.

Your door has no latch.

It's okay.

I'll block it with the table,
and that will do.
