[Shine On Me]

[Adapted from Gu Man's novel,
Shine On Me]

[Episode 5]

I don't think I've seen you around.

You don't work here, do you?

How did you get in here?

Never seen me before?

Naturally, you wouldn't have.

[Download Completed]

What a weirdo.

There you are.

What took you so long?

When I was downloading that show,

out of nowhere, a guy showed up

and then just walked out.

A fling?

Is he hot?

You got busted?

Who's he? What team is he with?

He's not gonna snitch
to the higher-ups, is he?

No idea who he is.

Probably he doesn't work here.

Otherwise, I'd definitely remember him.

Forget it.

Let's just watch it.

Come on.

My idol's god-tier visuals.

[Shuangyuan Photovoltaic]

[Yin Jie]

My goodness, Xiguang.

Our Deputy GM showed up this afternoon.

He's a literal heartthrob.

You've got to check him out.

Xiguang,

you're so boy-crazy.

Running over here so fast

just to see the eye candy?

Seriously,

do you have any idea what time it is?

We're supposed to be

at the plant for a meeting.

Finance sent me,

and Administration sent you.

Oh right.

My bad.

His face totally short-circuited
my brain.

Look.

That's his office.

A total smokeshow.

I checked as soon as I walked in.

Nobody's there.

No way.

I didn't see him leave.

So? What do you think?

Tall, handsome,

and legs for days, right?

Yin Jie,

I'm toast.

What's wrong?

Don't tell me you fell for Mr. Lin

the second you saw him

and now you're so far gone

that you're basically toast?

Get a grip, will you?

Let's move. Meeting time.

Wait,

why exactly are you "toast"?

I mean my career

is over.

It's all because of
that three kiss scenes.

Mr. Zhang and Mr. Lin
are headed to the plant too.

If only they could give us a lift.

Dream on.

We have only got the bus.

Hello?

Xiguang, where are you?

I've been looking all over for you.

I thought I was supposed
to be at the meeting.

What's wrong?

We were reconciling
the books this morning

and the numbers don't add up.

We just traced it

to a pre-holiday AP entry.

When we made the transfer,

we processed the payment in RMB terms,

but sent the USD amount.

Wait, which payment?

The one

for the battery encapsulant film.

Does that ring a bell?

You stamped the document.

Yeah.

You all had clocked out by then.

Just me and Qiqi in the office.

The guys from Procurement rushed in

and told us it was an urgent rush.

Great, you're still here.

Ou Qiqi,

we have some raw material purchases

that need urgent payment.

My boss says

they must be processed
by the day after tomorrow.

But I'm already off the clock.

I even shut down my computer.

If it's so urgent,

why didn't you bring it in sooner?

Qiqi,

please

help me out.

You know

how my boss gets.

Fine.

Thanks.

Xiguang,

let's use your computer for this, okay?

Sure thing.

[Purchase Receiving Note]

[Payment Voucher]

[Purchase Contract
for Coated Photovoltaic Glass]

All three documents
are for the same company.

Right. Don't worry.

Alright.

Thanks, Qiqi.

I'll get you milk tea tomorrow.

No need.

Just don't make us work late next time.

For sure.

Xiguang,

can you just chop these for me?

Okay.

Mr. Wu needs to approve it tomorrow

[Nie Xiguang, Finance]
before it goes to the cashier.

It's fine.

I'll handle the walk-through

and meet the deadline.

Go ahead. I need to get back.

This supplier is foreign-controlled.

Even though it's a domestic payment,

they've always settled in USD.

We were processing
several payments at once.

The others were all in USD.

But somehow, for this one contract,

the currency was set to RMB.

Yet the documents Procurement submitted

were still in USD.

They made a mistake during data entry.

And when you did the books,

you didn't double-check
the attached contract.

It just went through like that.

Technically, with so many levels
of approval,

this shouldn't have happened.

But somehow, everyone missed it.

A low-probability event

caused a massive mess.

You need to get back here ASAP.

[Finance]
Your department

is definitely taking the fall for this.

Why did you CC Procurement

on that email anyway?

Are you trying to shift

the blame onto us?

I CC'd everyone to see

how we can

coordinate internally

to recover the funds
as quickly as possible.

The priority right now

is fixing the problem,

not playing

the blame game.

Fix the problem?

You guys

messed up big time.

How exactly do you plan on fixing it?

Something goes wrong

and no one's held accountable?

You want us

to take the fall with you?

Seriously? Our mess?

Dou Cheng, don't push it.

The paperwork your department sent over

had USD on the original documents.

Even the system workflow showed USD.

What?

You're trying to pin the blame

entirely on us?

We have

a copy of the contract.

It clearly says RMB on there.

Verification was your job,

and you Finance people failed miserably.

You're shifting the blame.

Sure, we were supposed to verify it,

but your department

also had one person prepare

and another review it.

How did you miss it then?

You were the ones
who signed the contract.

If you couldn't catch the error,

why should it fall entirely on us?

Who's really responsible

for the original mistake?

Don't get worked up.

You're not the one who did the books.

Why are you so stressed?

Whoever did it takes the heat.

Isn't the name on the stamp

Nie Xiguang?

Who's that?

Never heard of her.

Must be a newbie.

I...

I was the one who actually handled it.

Nie just started here

and is still learning the ropes.

I just used her stamp

to process it.

Dou Cheng,

when you were begging us

to rush the order that day,

didn't you see her then?

Stop playing these dirty games.

I'm Nie Xiguang.

I'll take full responsibility

for Finance's part,

but for errors made at the source

that have nothing to do with us,

I'm absolutely not taking the blame.

You'll own it?

As if you even could.

Your entire annual salary

is nothing compared to what we lost.

Are you serious?

Stop acting so heroic.

What we just saw

was the module production line.

Up ahead is the cell production line.

Tech and the lab

are also in the cell plant.

Let me show you.

Is that half-finished building
over there

the Phase II plant?

Yes.

It's been sitting unfinished
for a long time.

The path for the PV industry

has been incredibly bumpy.

This company

was founded in 2005.

The first three years were the only time
everything went right.

In those days,

output value was soaring,

and annual profits
topped a hundred million.

Then came 2008,

and the financial crisis hit.

We barely managed to scrape by.

Things only looked up for two years

before the AD/CVD duties hit.

That wiped out our entire market share

in both Europe and the U.S.

We were among the lucky ones.

A few domestic orders kept us afloat.

But so many others
have declared bankruptcy

and been forced out of the industry.

The state of the PV market these years

has been tense indeed.

Mr. Zhang, holding the fort
all by yourself

is no small feat.

Before my transfer here,

my grandpa specifically told me

to learn as much as possible from you.

It's not that I'm anything special.

I've just been cautious
and conservative.

Ever since 2010,

I've strictly controlled our capacity,

and we stopped hiring as well.

This year, due to poor performance,

some staff in Administration

have left.

Out of necessity, we hired

a few fresh graduates to fill the gaps.

Hiring during a time like this

is quite rare in this industry.

Yusen,

I heard

you volunteered to transfer here

from HQ.

That's right.

Why is that?

I remember

last year,

at the corporate strategy session

on the Phase II expansion project,

you and I

both voted against it.

I think we're on the same page.

It's not the expansion you're against,

but the timing.

I asked

to be sent here

because I believe

the turning point has arrived.

Tell me about it.

So, you're putting me on the spot.

If you look at

the trajectory of global PV,

from the U.S.

Million Solar Roofs Initiative

or Germany's

Renewable Energy Sources Act,

the PV momentum

has always come from the top down.

It's all part

of the global energy play.

For China,

developing clean energy

and decreasing reliance on fossil fuels

is necessary

and a national imperative.

Giving up is not an option.

The government just released

a series of PV development roadmaps.

The signal is crystal clear.

They're pivoting to the domestic market.

So, you're here

because HQ's intent

is to resume the expansion?

Exactly.

HQ will release the Phase III funding

as soon as possible,

but any further shortfall

must be self-funded.

Mr. Zhang,

has the second payment

from Yuancheng cleared?

Not yet.

This is Tech.

Mr. Zhang.

Where's Mr. Hua?

He's in the lab.

He'll be here any minute.

Mr. Zhang.

Let me introduce everyone.

This is

our new Deputy GM,

Mr. Lin Yusen.

This is Mr. Hua Xiangyang,

who holds a PhD

from the School of Photovoltaic

and Renewable Energy Engineering
at UNSW Sydney

and

he leads our R&D

on PERC technology.

Hello.

Sorry.

I was fixing some equipment.

No problem.

Is the machine down again?

Just a minor glitch.

It's still holding up after a quick fix.

I was actually looking for you.

We've had

a minor breakthrough
in conversion efficiency,

but

we're still struggling
to keep it stable.

Even a minor breakthrough

is great news.

Come on.

Let's check it out at the lab.

Let's go.

Mr. Lin,

Finance and Procurement

have a massive screw-up on their hands.

They are having a total meltdown.

If you want

our cooperation, fine,

you need to send an email,

stating clearly:

"Due to a blunder by Finance,
a payment was issued incorrectly.

Procurement is now being requested

to step in
and coordinate with the vendor."

And we need to be clear

that the fund recovery

isn't

our job.

What do you mean,

it's not your job?

Are you just going

to dodge the blame?

Hello?

Got it.

Stop it, everyone.

This has escalated

all the way to Mr. Lin.

Don't panic.

Now that the higher-up is involved,

it'll get sorted out.

Hello?

That's great.

Thanks a lot.

Understood.

Mr. Wang from Administration said

Mr. Lin reached out

to the company

and managed to get the money back.

They've agreed

to wire the funds by tomorrow.

He also mentioned

that we're expected

at the Administration immediately.

Mr. Lin wants to see us.

The balding guy in there

is Mr. Mo, the Head of Procurement.

Mr. Lin called him in, too?

He seems to have quite an attitude

and doesn't have much respect
for Mr. Lin.

He used to be at the Shengyuan HQ.

He's been here
since Shuangyuan was first set up.

We've been through three Deputy GMs

and he's the only one who stayed.

He's a real veteran around here.

Word is, he has serious backing at HQ.

Qiqi,

you're about to be promoted
to Senior Accountant.

If Mr. Lin asks,

just tell him

I did the books.

No.

You're still on probation.

What if Mr. Lin gets upset

and fires you?

I'm not afraid.

Xiguang,

I know you mean well,

but we have to be honest,

right?

We'll just tell the truth.

That's the only way
to have a clear conscience.

Where is Mr. Wu?

Mr. Wu is away on a business trip today.

He's already been briefed
on the situation

and is on his way back now.

Tell him

to keep his eyes peeled

when hiring.

Look at these people

he brought in.

What a total liability.

If Mr. Lin hadn't stepped in

and got that money back,

you couldn't pay for this mess
even if we sold you off.

There was an oversight on my part,

but you guys

made the error first

and pushed us to rush the payment.

My apologies, Mr. Mo.

We'll be more careful.

How dare you

talk to Mr. Mo like that?

Just a reminder,

Mr. Mo,

human trafficking is a crime.

Mr. Lin.

Such impressive composure.

Still in the mood for jokes.

You're too young,

and frankly, a medical degree

hardly prepares you

for real-world management.

With entry-level staff like these,

you have to be firm with them.

A few more years in the trenches,

and you'll see.

Thanks for your guidance.

By the way,

what was your name again?

Nie Xiguang, right?

I'll

have a word with Mr. Wu later.

Staff

who don't know their place

shouldn't stay long.

Sit.

I just got here,

and you've given me quite a "surprise."

Accountants from top-tier universities

mixing up currency units?

[Nie Xiguang, Finance]

Nie Xiguang?

I'm so sorry, Mr. Lin.

I'll make sure it never happens again.

There is no "again."

Miss Nie,

you're clearly cut out for

anything but finance.

Oh, my.

Is he pink-slipping me, too?

Mr. Lin.

As of this moment,

you're moving to Administration.

You've been transferred
to Administration?

Yeah,

I'll report for duty tomorrow.

Administration

reports directly to the GM

and the Deputy GM.

So that means

Mr. Lin will be

your direct supervisor.

I guess that's for the best.

With Mr. Lin watching,

Mr. Mo will have to tone it down a bit.

Otherwise, I'm really afraid
he'd come after you.

Even though Mr. Wu
would look out for us.

But what about you, Qiqi?

I'm fine.

But the Senior Accountant promotion

will have to wait.

Anyway, what matters
is that the money was recovered.

I really don't know

what we would've done otherwise.

Yeah.

Xiguang,

watch your back in Administration.

[Shuangyuan Photovoltaic]

[Administration]

Yin Jie.

Come on,

I've picked out
the perfect spot for you.

Right next to me.

Come on.

Let's go check in with Mr. Wang.

Mr. Wang,

this is Nie Xiguang.

Mr. Lin sent her over
to join Administration.

Hi, Mr. Wang.

I know.

Nie, right?

Welcome.

Mr. Lin.

Good morning, Mr. Lin.

Good morning, Mr. Lin.

Mr. Lin,

Nie has reported for duty.

How

would you like me

to handle Nie's assignment?

You take care of it.

All other tasks

have already been assigned.

The archives

need some organizing.

How about

we have Nie

start over there?

Not bad.

I thought the second I opened the door,

it'd be like a dust storm in here.

It's not that bad, come on.

It does get cleaned.

But it's such a mess

that we can never find what we need.

Some aren't even bound yet.

It's a legacy mess from the old days.

Mr. Wang had us start sorting it,

but things got busy and we fell behind.

Now that you're here,

I'll give you a quick rundown

on how to categorize everything.

Then I've gotta run.

I'll help you out when I'm free.

Sure.

[Financial Records]

So neat and organized.

Am I

some kind of filing genius?

You did all this

in just one day?

I've got the hang of it.

I thought it'd take you a whole week.

At this rate,

you'll be done in three or four days.

Let's pack it up.

Time for dinner.

I want to finish this batch first,

then treat myself

to some street food later.

Doing overtime on day one?

You're such a go-getter.

No.

It's just

my OCD kicking in.

Plus, the restaurants

must be packed right now.

Fine.

I'll grab

some drinks first,

then come back and help.

[Nie Xiguang, Finance]

[Entry Date: 15 Sep 2012]

There was an oversight on my part,

but you guys

made the error first

and pushed us to rush the payment.

Rush the payment?

[Archives]

♪I'm the expert
of the archives, you see♪

♪Clutching files all day,
as busy as I can be♪

♪Staplers, tape, and stacks so high♪

♪A funny-looking guy is covered in dust♪

♪Only I know all these chaos♪

So soon.

Could you grab

that gray file box by the door

for me?

Mr. Lin.

I'm so sorry.

I thought you were Yin Jie.

Thanks, Mr. Lin.

You seem happy.

I heard you singing.

It's just...

after that big mess I caused,

you

stepped in and fixed everything.

I feel like
a huge weight has been lifted.

Was that kiss-up

too subtle?

Should I throw in a few more lines?

Organizing the archives
is a bit tiring, sure,

but once you find a system
and get it done,

it's

actually quite rewarding.

My goodness, girl.

I wasn't trying

to leave you hanging.

I was right in the middle of the line

when the shopkeeper just disappeared
to who-knows-where.

I just stood there
like an idiot for ages.

But hey,

I brought Yuhua along

to help out.

Here, have some water.

Thanks.

What?

Did you see Mr. Lin just now?

No.

He must have left work already.

He was just in here
going through some files

for a good 40 minutes.

[Shuangyuan Photovoltaic]

Mr. Lin came again?

What kind of files
would take him this long?

PV glass purchase contracts.

EVA purchase contracts.

All purchase contracts.

They're all related to Procurement?

I knew it.

A guy as handsome as Mr. Lin

must have some real backbone.

There's no way
he'd let a snake like that

walk all over him.

Oh, Xiguang.

News of your transfer

to Administration

is all over the office.

There are so many different versions
of the story.

Some people even tried
to fish for info from me.

Fish for what?

Like,

if Mr. Lin personally

handpicked a total knockout

from Finance

to join Administration.

A "knockout"?

Me?

Yeah.

People in our department
are gossiping, too.

They're saying Mr. Lin is so handsome,

and he suddenly moved you

from Finance to Administration.

Well, a lot of people

are starting to get ideas.

Plus,

you've been in the archives,

and Mr. Lin is there every single day.

How could others

not suspect something?

Honestly, if you weren't my friend,

even I'd be suspicious.

This is too much.

I won't let anyone

slander Mr. Lin like that.

You guys have no idea

Mr. Lin going to the archives every day

is for a grand

and noble cause.

What is

the "grand and noble cause"?

Secrecy leads to success.

I can't tell you anything yet.

Anyway, Mr. Lin
isn't the superficial man

everyone thinks he is.

We share

a noble and righteous goal.

I hereby declare

that we are allies.

I'm going to the archives.

Nie is certainly being proactive.

Indeed.

Because she has a noble

and righteous goal.

What?

Nothing. Just talking to myself.

All sorted by year.

Where is Mr. Lin?

Don't tell me he's not coming today.

Mr. Lin.

Are these

[Purchase Contract]
what you're looking for?

You're sharp.

Oh, it's nothing.

Just doing my job.

Mr. Lin,

if you need anything else,

just let me know.

I have a great memory.

I'll track it down for you

in no time.

You have a great memory?

Yeah.

Very well.

I have a task

that requires your help.

What is it?

I need you to take

our top 50 products by purchase volume

and conduct a round
of external price inquiries.

The top 50?

This includes

the historical pricing for each item

since the company's inception.

Historical pricing?

Yes,

since we were founded back in 2005.

Since you have a great memory,

I'm sure

you'll find it

quite manageable.

Our alliance is over!

[Our alliance is over!]

I hereby declare

that my alliance with Mr. Lin

has unilaterally collapsed.

You poor, naive thing.

Does Mr. Lin even know

he's in an alliance with you?

I'm a total goner.

My brain is now hard-wired

for the price of low-iron glass

per square meter,

the cost of EVA film

per kilogram,

and payment cycles.

The romantic girl in me

is dead.

I seriously don't understand

the Administration's logic.

This job is too "character-building".

Yin Jie, since you joined,

have you ever been assigned

this kind of grunt work?

What?

During my first few days here,

I didn't even get a good look
at the boss's face.

No.

Something smells fishy.

Mr. Lin treats Xiguang very differently.

Thanks for noticing

that he's being exceptionally cruel
to me.

No.

You're reading it all wrong.

Xiguang,

does he actually

have feelings for you?

That's how it always goes

in dramas.

The female lead joins the company

and gets

special treatment,

then gets transferred
right under the boss's wing

so he can see her every day.

If a guy in a drama

asks a girl

what she wants to eat

and cooks for her,

does that mean

he likes her?

Totally.

Cooking for someone
is the ultimate love language.

It's so sweet.

I love it.

But in reality,

maybe he just didn't want her

to treat him to a big meal

and would rather do it himself

than owe her a favor.

He's the standoffish type, huh?

So

delusion is a disease,

and it seriously needs the cure.

I've decided,

once this project is wrapped up,

I'm taking some time off.

I thought you were taking time off.

What are you doing now,

pulling overtime?

I'm putting together

a deluxe spreadsheet

that will blow my ex-ally's mind

and get my vacation approved.

I've gathered historical quotes

from various suppliers for every product

via phone and email.

Since you might need

to keep this confidential,

I made the calls from my personal phone.

My number is registered in Wuxi,

so they won't

link it back to us.

For the emails, I made up

a fake company based in Jiangxi.

In the sheet,

I also entered

our average transaction prices

over the years.

Any price variance over 10%

is highlighted in red.

You've been very thorough.

Excellent work.

Thanks, Mr. Lin.

Mr. Lin,

I'd like to request some time off.

[Leave Request Form]

Three days?

Why such a long leave?

Because...

I'm feeling a bit under the weather.

Unfortunately,

I used to be a doctor

and I really don't see

any signs of illness.

Were you a TCM doctor?

I mean, only TCM doctors

can diagnose just by looking.

Request denied.

You may leave.

How did it go?

Did your "ex-ally" drop his jaw?

Are you a TCM doctor?

No.

Have you lost your mind?

Would saying that

make you angry?

Why would I be mad?

At most,

I'd just think you've lost it.

Exactly.

He was being so weird.

It was like someone stepped on his tail.

Who are you talking about?

[Leave Request Form]

I mean

I'd better keep my head down
for a few days.

I think I've reached my breaking point.

I need to go out
for a real meal tomorrow.

How come you hit your "limit"
every three days?

Wait.

Just make do with this dorm for now.

Your uncle

has pulled some strings for you.

They'll try their best not to assign you

any roommates.

Come on,

let's go.

What's going on?

Someone new just moved into Building 1.

Dorm Management promised us

that we'd get

the first available room.

I've got the scoop.

The guy who moved
into Building 1 yesterday

is a new hire in Procurement.

A room opened up in Building 1,

and he just moved right in.

What gives?

Shouldn't we have been prioritized?

We've been here longer.

This is totally unfair.

No way.

I'm going to file a formal complaint.

A complaint probably won't do any good.

Word is, he's a relative

of Mr. Mo from Procurement.

Procurement again?

Mr. Mo is way too full of himself.

Exactly.

So what if he's a relative?

Rules are rules, right?

Logistics

will definitely back him up.

Even if we complain,

they'll probably just stall

and give us the runaround.

I heard the cafeteria caterer

is also a crony he brought in.

No wonder the food is so terrible.

Old hatreds and new resentments.

No,

we can't just let this slide.

Should we just go straight to Mr. Lin?

Mr. Lin?

Yeah.

Mr. Lin outranks Mr. Mo

and he is not afraid of him.

Besides, Yin Jie and I
are in Administration,

and Yuhua, you're in Marketing.

Both departments report directly to him.

Who else are we supposed to go to?

But what if Mr. Lin resents us

for causing trouble

and putting him in a spot?

You have a point.

If Mr. Lin thinks

we're being immature and reckless,

then we're screwed.

True.

I guess I wasn't thinking it through.

Listen.

Forget

about the complaint form.

I'll go talk to Mr. Lin alone.

I don't care if he has
a bad impression of me.

Anyway,

it's already as bad as it gets.

Don't.

You shouldn't just

throw in the towel like that.

Either we go together

or no one goes at all.

You hear me?

Yeah.

Ke,

here you go.

What kind of meeting lasts this long?

Mr. Lin.

I'll head back

and touch base with Mr. Ba

at Shengyuan Finance.

Mr. Lin.

♪The sky dimmed, deepened and died♪

♪Nothing more than some rain inside♪

♪Open the window
to boundless blue skies♪

♪Side by side, just you and I♪
