00:01:29,223 --> 00:01:31,893
[Episode 25]

4
00:01:40,002 --> 00:01:41,203
Sorry, everyone.

5
00:01:41,243 --> 00:01:42,703
The Central Bank's internal meeting was delayed.

6
00:01:42,703 --> 00:01:44,032
So I’m late.

7
00:01:44,053 --> 00:01:44,893
Please forgive me.

8
00:01:44,893 --> 00:01:45,453
Advisor Shen.

9
00:01:45,453 --> 00:01:46,493
Have a seat.

10
00:01:46,553 --> 00:01:47,403
Mr. Yu.

11
00:01:49,583 --> 00:01:51,113
The war happened suddenly.

12
00:01:51,293 --> 00:01:53,623
The Central Bank is the pillar of finance.

13
00:01:54,002 --> 00:01:55,263
It's understandable.

14
00:01:55,543 --> 00:01:56,603
Please have a seat.

15
00:01:57,093 --> 00:01:58,893
Judging from your expression,

16
00:01:59,473 --> 00:02:01,963
I'm afraid today's situation is not simple.

17
00:02:03,293 --> 00:02:05,533
I do have two requests today.

18
00:02:05,873 --> 00:02:06,603
Firstly,

19
00:02:06,733 --> 00:02:09,192
I hope the banking associations in Shanghai

20
00:02:09,213 --> 00:02:11,613
will respond to the summons of the head association

21
00:02:11,613 --> 00:02:12,713
and shut down indefinitely

22
00:02:12,713 --> 00:02:14,173
to protest against Japan.

23
00:02:14,733 --> 00:02:15,333
Secondly,

24
00:02:15,443 --> 00:02:16,933
we must raise funds for

25
00:02:17,333 --> 00:02:19,663
the 19th Route Army's pay and provisions.

26
00:02:26,643 --> 00:02:29,333
Both requests are difficult.

27
00:02:29,913 --> 00:02:32,213
Although Japan has waged war,

28
00:02:32,363 --> 00:02:33,733
they had a talk

29
00:02:34,133 --> 00:02:36,213
with the British and American consulates

30
00:02:36,213 --> 00:02:37,773
beforehand and promised

31
00:02:37,813 --> 00:02:41,163
not to touch the concessions.

32
00:02:42,693 --> 00:02:44,693
If you ask us banks

33
00:02:45,643 --> 00:02:47,323
to join the strike,

34
00:02:47,963 --> 00:02:51,883
you'll put the concession and business departments in a difficult position.

35
00:02:51,883 --> 00:02:52,823
When the country is in trouble,

36
00:02:52,823 --> 00:02:55,283
our priority is the interests of the people.

37
00:02:55,363 --> 00:02:57,023
After all, we are all Chinese.

38
00:02:57,083 --> 00:02:57,843
Of course,

39
00:02:57,863 --> 00:02:58,863
we put our country

40
00:02:58,933 --> 00:03:02,283
n the most important place,

41
00:03:02,413 --> 00:03:03,463
our hearts.

42
00:03:04,453 --> 00:03:05,353
But

43
00:03:05,613 --> 00:03:06,623
we just received

44
00:03:06,623 --> 00:03:09,063
an emergency call from Wuhan, Nanjing,

45
00:03:09,063 --> 00:03:11,613
asking us to focus on the overall situation.

46
00:03:13,023 --> 00:03:14,173
At a time like this,

47
00:03:14,933 --> 00:03:16,333
if we suspend operations

48
00:03:16,743 --> 00:03:18,093
and settlements,

49
00:03:18,813 --> 00:03:19,773
I'm afraid they won't agree.

50
00:03:19,773 --> 00:03:20,943
At a time like this,

51
00:03:21,653 --> 00:03:23,213
we must be united.

52
00:03:23,723 --> 00:03:24,783
The suspension of operations

53
00:03:24,783 --> 00:03:26,463
is a declaration of our stance

54
00:03:26,823 --> 00:03:29,093
and the stance of Germany, France, Britain, and America.

55
00:03:29,093 --> 00:03:30,653
You're all handling foreign capital.

56
00:03:30,653 --> 00:03:32,173
If you don't suspend operation,

57
00:03:32,173 --> 00:03:33,413
Japan will believe that

58
00:03:33,413 --> 00:03:35,783
the leaders of those countries are on their side.

59
00:03:35,783 --> 00:03:37,343
Only when you suspend operations

60
00:03:37,343 --> 00:03:38,933
will the international public think about

61
00:03:38,933 --> 00:03:39,813
which side

62
00:03:40,303 --> 00:03:41,833
justice should stand with.

63
00:03:44,503 --> 00:03:45,903
Advisor Shen is right.

64
00:03:46,813 --> 00:03:47,933
If Shanghai

65
00:03:47,933 --> 00:03:50,223
were occupied by the Japanese,

66
00:03:50,253 --> 00:03:52,593
even if we had support from Britain and America,

67
00:03:52,593 --> 00:03:53,793
our future

68
00:03:53,833 --> 00:03:55,833
would be bleak.

69
00:03:58,023 --> 00:03:58,903
But

70
00:03:59,373 --> 00:04:02,143
suspending the markets indefinitely

71
00:04:02,373 --> 00:04:02,863
is a little...

72
00:04:02,863 --> 00:04:03,583
Like I've said,

73
00:04:03,583 --> 00:04:05,073
it's about taking a stand.

74
00:04:05,873 --> 00:04:07,293
If we can't do it indefinitely,

75
00:04:07,293 --> 00:04:08,293
let's suspend operations for three days.

76
00:04:08,293 --> 00:04:09,693
Three days, is that okay?

77
00:04:09,893 --> 00:04:10,603
Come on.

78
00:04:11,333 --> 00:04:12,333
Three days

79
00:04:12,813 --> 00:04:14,623
to take our stand.

80
00:04:14,643 --> 00:04:15,883
I think it's okay.

81
00:04:16,843 --> 00:04:17,503
What about you?

82
00:04:17,503 --> 00:04:18,292
Sure.

83
00:04:18,503 --> 00:04:19,633
The second problem,

84
00:04:20,172 --> 00:04:22,603
about the 19th Route Army's pay and provisions.

85
00:04:22,603 --> 00:04:24,563
I can’t negotiate on this.

86
00:04:30,573 --> 00:04:32,033
I'm sure you have all heard

87
00:04:32,173 --> 00:04:33,373
the bombing outside.

88
00:04:33,923 --> 00:04:36,153
The 19th Route Army is Shanghai's main anti-Japanese force.

89
00:04:36,153 --> 00:04:38,063
They haven't been paid for two months.

90
00:04:38,063 --> 00:04:39,703
The government only has

91
00:04:39,703 --> 00:04:40,883
three million in its account.

92
00:04:40,883 --> 00:04:42,843
The monthly expenses are 22 million.

93
00:04:42,843 --> 00:04:43,723
But I think

94
00:04:43,743 --> 00:04:44,723
no matter what,

95
00:04:45,563 --> 00:04:47,333
we cannot skimp on military pay.

96
00:04:47,333 --> 00:04:48,333
So, everyone,

97
00:04:49,253 --> 00:04:50,213
please.

98
00:04:59,432 --> 00:05:00,203
Fugen.

99
00:05:00,553 --> 00:05:01,953
Eat something.

100
00:05:03,293 --> 00:05:04,143
Your family is gone.

101
00:05:04,143 --> 00:05:05,783
But you have to live on.

102
00:05:05,783 --> 00:05:07,333
You have to live on!

103
00:05:07,333 --> 00:05:07,893
Fugen!

104
00:05:09,133 --> 00:05:09,623
Fugen.

105
00:05:10,873 --> 00:05:11,953
I told you we should have gone home.

106
00:05:11,953 --> 00:05:12,773
But you refused to listen to me.

107
00:05:12,773 --> 00:05:13,723
Now's not the time for that.

108
00:05:13,723 --> 00:05:14,573
Will you quit it?

109
00:05:14,573 --> 00:05:15,393
It's a mess wherever you go.

110
00:05:15,393 --> 00:05:16,793
Stay in Shanghai for now.

111
00:05:21,143 --> 00:05:21,673
Wen!

112
00:05:21,693 --> 00:05:22,483
Wen, how are you?

113
00:05:22,483 --> 00:05:23,523
Wen.

114
00:05:24,163 --> 00:05:24,643
Get up.

115
00:05:24,663 --> 00:05:25,263
Get up.

116
00:05:25,823 --> 00:05:26,093
Wen.

117
00:05:26,093 --> 00:05:26,533
What's wrong?

118
00:05:26,533 --> 00:05:27,373
Japanese! Japanese!

119
00:05:27,373 --> 00:05:28,223
So many of them.

120
00:05:28,223 --> 00:05:28,663
What's going on?

121
00:05:28,663 --> 00:05:30,723
I couldn't do it. I tried my best, Wei.

122
00:05:31,743 --> 00:05:34,693
The Japanese couldn't take down Zhabei Station all night,

123
00:05:34,693 --> 00:05:36,893
so they bombed the residential area.

124
00:05:37,023 --> 00:05:38,693
People are injured everywhere.

125
00:05:38,693 --> 00:05:41,423
There are no beds in the hospital and no medicine.

126
00:05:42,173 --> 00:05:43,493
Is it better in the concessions?

127
00:05:43,493 --> 00:05:44,173
Slow down.

128
00:05:44,813 --> 00:05:45,253
I think

129
00:05:45,473 --> 00:05:46,623
they are all the same.

130
00:05:46,623 --> 00:05:47,263
I heard

131
00:05:47,613 --> 00:05:50,143
over 100,000 people rushed there last night.

132
00:05:50,573 --> 00:05:52,003
All the police were chasing people away

133
00:05:52,003 --> 00:05:53,263
with their big sticks.

134
00:05:54,493 --> 00:05:55,493
There are so many.

135
00:05:55,873 --> 00:05:56,643
Ms. Zhou.

136
00:05:56,673 --> 00:05:57,423
How about this?

137
00:05:57,423 --> 00:05:58,643
I have to go to work later.

138
00:05:58,643 --> 00:06:00,493
I'll take everyone to the concession for shelter.

139
00:06:00,493 --> 00:06:01,733
Every successful entry counts.

140
00:06:01,733 --> 00:06:02,493
Wei,

141
00:06:02,793 --> 00:06:03,893
you're just one person.

142
00:06:03,893 --> 00:06:05,423
How many people can you bring in?

143
00:06:05,423 --> 00:06:06,893
If you mess up, no one can get in.

144
00:06:06,893 --> 00:06:07,333
Yes.

145
00:06:07,333 --> 00:06:08,243
We're not leaving.

146
00:06:08,243 --> 00:06:09,743
What will they do if we leave?

147
00:06:09,743 --> 00:06:10,473
Get to work.

148
00:06:10,503 --> 00:06:11,053
We're not going anywhere.

149
00:06:11,053 --> 00:06:12,053
Let me help you, Ms. Zhou.

150
00:06:12,053 --> 00:06:12,853
Hurry up.

151
00:06:12,853 --> 00:06:14,253
I'll get a few rickshaws.

152
00:06:15,473 --> 00:06:16,473
Are you cold?

153
00:06:17,223 --> 00:06:18,543
I'll get the quilt.

154
00:06:22,083 --> 00:06:22,723
Hurry.

155
00:06:22,743 --> 00:06:24,293
Pass things down to everyone.

156
00:06:24,293 --> 00:06:26,093
These emergency supplies, too.

157
00:06:26,763 --> 00:06:27,983
Here, have some steamed buns.

158
00:06:27,983 --> 00:06:28,493
Here.

159
00:06:29,113 --> 00:06:29,793
Thank you.

160
00:06:29,913 --> 00:06:31,443
Why are you here, Miss Shen?

161
00:06:32,293 --> 00:06:33,682
It's too chaotic here. Leave now.

162
00:06:33,682 --> 00:06:34,182
Are you okay?

163
00:06:34,182 --> 00:06:34,813
Are you hurt?

164
00:06:34,813 --> 00:06:35,813
I'm fine. Just go.

165
00:06:35,932 --> 00:06:37,013
It's too close to the war zone here.

166
00:06:37,013 --> 00:06:37,613
Go!

167
00:06:37,613 --> 00:06:38,423
Hurry up.

168
00:06:38,423 --> 00:06:39,182
Wei Ruolai!

169
00:06:39,593 --> 00:06:40,473
I can't leave.

170
00:06:40,513 --> 00:06:41,973
Look at the situation now.

171
00:06:42,093 --> 00:06:43,353
I have to stay and help.

172
00:06:47,263 --> 00:06:48,463
Take this.

173
00:06:50,413 --> 00:06:51,473
For self-defense.

174
00:06:52,093 --> 00:06:53,423
I hope you won't need it.

175
00:07:02,743 --> 00:07:02,893
This is the 19th Route Army speaking.

176
00:07:02,893 --> 00:07:04,213
This is the 19th Route Army speaking.

177
00:07:04,213 --> 00:07:05,263
This is a report

178
00:07:05,263 --> 00:07:06,333
to all countrymen,

179
00:07:08,373 --> 00:07:11,433
Japan has occupied the three northeastern provinces.

180
00:07:12,083 --> 00:07:13,973
We have lost territories

181
00:07:14,093 --> 00:07:15,753
and our nation is dying.

182
00:07:16,323 --> 00:07:19,243
Recently, they attacked civilians in Shanghai.

183
00:07:20,693 --> 00:07:23,273
Their actions are violent and atrocious.

184
00:07:23,523 --> 00:07:25,183
They point their cannons at us

185
00:07:25,253 --> 00:07:27,103
and their troops are on our land.

186
00:07:27,933 --> 00:07:30,523
On the 28th of the month, at midnight,

187
00:07:30,563 --> 00:07:33,803
they invaded us from Zhabei, Shanghai

188
00:07:33,823 --> 00:07:35,163
and provoked us.

189
00:07:35,733 --> 00:07:37,363
Those who belong to the army

190
00:07:38,073 --> 00:07:39,963
must execute proper defense measures.

191
00:07:39,963 --> 00:07:41,523
Defending the country

192
00:07:41,563 --> 00:07:43,113
is our duty.

193
00:07:43,393 --> 00:07:44,953
We cannot give up

194
00:07:45,113 --> 00:07:46,563
on our territory.

195
00:07:47,273 --> 00:07:49,883
Fight against Japan to save our country and people.

196
00:07:49,883 --> 00:07:52,153
Even though we may sacrifice ourselves,

197
00:07:52,553 --> 00:07:53,932
we must never back down.

198
00:07:54,533 --> 00:07:56,053
This will and determination

199
00:07:56,053 --> 00:07:58,863
shall be witnessed by the world.

200
00:07:59,293 --> 00:08:01,703
The spirits of our ancestors

201
00:08:02,013 --> 00:08:03,333
shall testify it.

202
00:08:04,603 --> 00:08:07,683
Japan's ambition is clear as day.

203
00:08:09,933 --> 00:08:10,503
Guards!

204
00:08:10,503 --> 00:08:11,573
If the Japanese charge in here,

205
00:08:11,573 --> 00:08:13,933
we'll just be killed here.

206
00:08:13,963 --> 00:08:15,833
Instead of dying in vain here,

207
00:08:15,933 --> 00:08:17,413
I'd rather die honorably on the battlefield.

208
00:08:17,413 --> 00:08:18,663
We want to fight!

209
00:08:18,663 --> 00:08:19,773
Fight against the Japanese!

210
00:08:19,773 --> 00:08:20,813
We want to fight!

211
00:08:20,863 --> 00:08:21,773
Fight against the Japanese!

212
00:08:21,773 --> 00:08:22,653
Just tell them that

213
00:08:22,653 --> 00:08:24,933
Lin Qiaosong is willing to fight to the death.

214
00:08:24,933 --> 00:08:25,663
Captain Lin,

215
00:08:25,813 --> 00:08:27,663
your sentence is not over.

216
00:08:27,693 --> 00:08:28,163
I'm afraid...

217
00:08:28,163 --> 00:08:29,423
What are you afraid of?

218
00:08:30,113 --> 00:08:30,873
We will die

219
00:08:31,453 --> 00:08:32,973
if we stay in this prison.

220
00:08:33,692 --> 00:08:35,243
Instead of dying in prison,

221
00:08:35,283 --> 00:08:38,013
we rather die on the battlefield.

222
00:09:28,883 --> 00:09:30,563
I want to go home.

223
00:09:30,893 --> 00:09:32,093
I'm hungry.

224
00:09:41,833 --> 00:09:43,473
Zhabei took the hardest hit.

225
00:09:43,953 --> 00:09:45,793
It's a relief that you're alive.

226
00:09:47,943 --> 00:09:49,703
Seven of my neighbors died.

227
00:09:50,413 --> 00:09:51,743
Countless are injured.

228
00:09:54,203 --> 00:09:57,343
Now do you know why the government didn't dare to declare war?

229
00:09:57,343 --> 00:09:58,933
The chairman called Mr. Song

230
00:09:58,933 --> 00:10:01,493
and pleaded for military expenses.

231
00:10:01,973 --> 00:10:04,493
I could only borrow so much from people, too.

232
00:10:05,533 --> 00:10:08,263
The military expenses raised from various banks

233
00:10:08,723 --> 00:10:09,723
are not much,

234
00:10:09,743 --> 00:10:12,343
but luckily, they come from foreign accounts.

235
00:10:12,473 --> 00:10:15,413
The Banking Association purchased a batch of urgent supplies.

236
00:10:15,413 --> 00:10:18,053
Medicine, bandages, and the like.

237
00:10:18,473 --> 00:10:20,133
They are all stuck at the port.

238
00:10:20,903 --> 00:10:21,813
It's an impossible task

239
00:10:21,813 --> 00:10:22,583
delivering these goods

240
00:10:22,583 --> 00:10:24,703
to the 19th Route Army

241
00:10:26,663 --> 00:10:27,863
from the concession.

242
00:10:28,363 --> 00:10:29,843
Let me try.

243
00:10:31,343 --> 00:10:32,343
You?

244
00:10:33,383 --> 00:10:34,543
What can you do?

245
00:10:34,543 --> 00:10:35,093
Yes.

246
00:10:35,573 --> 00:10:37,653
The Japanese dare not fight in the concession,

247
00:10:37,653 --> 00:10:38,523
but there are

248
00:10:38,543 --> 00:10:40,613
their vigilantes and spies everywhere.

249
00:10:40,613 --> 00:10:41,813
If they find out that we're transporting

250
00:10:41,813 --> 00:10:44,463
the supplies from the concession to the Chinese border,

251
00:10:44,463 --> 00:10:46,973
they will be waiting to intercept us at the border.

252
00:10:46,973 --> 00:10:48,763
How do we know if we don't try?

253
00:10:50,073 --> 00:10:51,743
I wasn't raised a coward.

254
00:10:58,493 --> 00:10:59,253
Ruolai.

255
00:10:59,903 --> 00:11:01,703
Remember what I told you before.

256
00:11:01,953 --> 00:11:03,513
Assess the situation.

257
00:11:03,533 --> 00:11:04,533
In the face of danger,

258
00:11:04,533 --> 00:11:06,933
your life is more important than supplies.

259
00:11:07,263 --> 00:11:08,433
I understand, Sir.

260
00:11:55,133 --> 00:11:59,313
[19th Route Army]
[Eliminate the Japanese enemies and protect our country]
[Make them pay]

261
00:12:02,063 --> 00:12:02,783
[Boycott Japanese goods forever]

262
00:12:02,783 --> 00:12:03,463
Sir.

263
00:12:03,873 --> 00:12:04,543
Madam.

264
00:12:05,053 --> 00:12:06,313
Brothers and sisters.

265
00:12:07,333 --> 00:12:08,573
The 19th Route Army

266
00:12:09,043 --> 00:12:10,573
is protecting our country,

267
00:12:10,723 --> 00:12:12,323
our women, and our children.

268
00:12:13,003 --> 00:12:16,203
We common folks should contribute

269
00:12:16,223 --> 00:12:17,533
whatever money and strength we have.

270
00:12:17,533 --> 00:12:19,963
If we work together, we can achieve victory.

271
00:12:19,963 --> 00:12:20,723
Wei.

272
00:12:21,303 --> 00:12:22,573
I delivered the message.

273
00:12:22,573 --> 00:12:23,773
But Hao and others...

274
00:12:26,253 --> 00:12:27,013
Hao.

275
00:12:30,953 --> 00:12:32,753
I know it's very risky this time.

276
00:12:33,393 --> 00:12:34,823
I'm not very confident either.

277
00:12:34,823 --> 00:12:35,373
How about this?

278
00:12:35,373 --> 00:12:36,723
Consider it a business.

279
00:12:36,763 --> 00:12:38,093
I'll pay you good money.

280
00:12:40,443 --> 00:12:41,523
How much?

281
00:12:46,033 --> 00:12:46,593
How about

282
00:12:47,003 --> 00:12:47,863
100 US dollars?

283
00:12:47,963 --> 00:12:49,583
This is the transport fee for one trip.

284
00:12:49,583 --> 00:12:51,183
I'll pay you after each trip.

285
00:13:02,643 --> 00:13:03,403
Hao,

286
00:13:03,833 --> 00:13:05,983
this is the highest price I can offer.

287
00:13:07,573 --> 00:13:09,043
Listen, Wei Ruolai.

288
00:13:09,473 --> 00:13:10,733
We're willing to do it.

289
00:13:10,733 --> 00:13:12,553
But we're not doing it for the Central Bank

290
00:13:12,553 --> 00:13:14,193
or for the officials.

291
00:13:15,263 --> 00:13:16,263
It's for the 19th Route Army

292
00:13:16,263 --> 00:13:18,863
who are fighting the enemies with their lives.

293
00:13:19,663 --> 00:13:21,453
So we don't need the money.

294
00:13:21,913 --> 00:13:23,493
Keep it for the army.

295
00:13:29,523 --> 00:13:30,283
Okay.

296
00:13:31,233 --> 00:13:32,623
Thank you, guys.

297
00:13:32,983 --> 00:13:33,693
Please.

298
00:14:50,633 --> 00:14:52,273
Keep up. Don't fall behind.

299
00:15:35,103 --> 00:15:37,033
One, two, three.

300
00:16:35,233 --> 00:16:36,353
Kill them!

301
00:17:23,842 --> 00:17:24,713
Hao!

302
00:17:24,983 --> 00:17:25,933
Wei!

303
00:17:35,153 --> 00:17:35,983
Hide!

304
00:17:52,633 --> 00:17:53,493
Assistant Wei.

305
00:17:53,803 --> 00:17:54,443
Be alert.

306
00:17:57,103 --> 00:17:57,773
Who are you?

307
00:17:58,323 --> 00:18:00,193
What, you don't recognize me already?

308
00:18:00,193 --> 00:18:01,003
Captain Lin?

309
00:18:02,663 --> 00:18:03,723
What are you doing?

310
00:18:04,463 --> 00:18:07,213
We're delivering supplies to the 19th Route Army.

311
00:18:07,213 --> 00:18:09,213
Are you a Dare-to-Die Corps?

312
00:18:09,503 --> 00:18:11,263
What else can we prisoners be?

313
00:18:13,033 --> 00:18:14,323
Team, we've got work to do.

314
00:18:14,323 --> 00:18:15,463
Armored vehicles are arriving at the next street.

315
00:18:15,463 --> 00:18:15,993
Let's go.

316
00:18:16,023 --> 00:18:16,783
Yes.

317
00:18:24,133 --> 00:18:26,363
Stay alive.

318
00:18:27,153 --> 00:18:29,283
I'll deal with you when the war is over.

319
00:18:36,273 --> 00:18:37,643
Be careful.

320
00:18:37,673 --> 00:18:38,553
Be safe!

321
00:18:38,573 --> 00:18:39,233
Be careful!

322
00:18:39,443 --> 00:18:40,123
Hurry up!

323
00:18:42,893 --> 00:18:43,873
The rickshaws are here.

324
00:18:43,873 --> 00:18:44,633
The rickshaws are here!

325
00:18:44,633 --> 00:18:45,633
Get moving!

326
00:18:45,803 --> 00:18:46,733
The rickshaws are here.

327
00:18:46,733 --> 00:18:48,053
Doggie, hurry here.

328
00:18:48,723 --> 00:18:49,843
Drink something warm.

329
00:18:49,843 --> 00:18:50,643
This one.

330
00:18:50,663 --> 00:18:52,193
I just poured it. Have some.

331
00:18:53,493 --> 00:18:54,413
Wen!

332
00:18:56,813 --> 00:18:57,573
Sir.

333
00:18:58,423 --> 00:18:59,823
Sir, why are you here?

334
00:18:59,853 --> 00:19:00,783
I'm here to help.

335
00:19:01,573 --> 00:19:02,413
Let me, Sir.

336
00:19:08,333 --> 00:19:09,173
Come, give me a hand.

337
00:19:09,173 --> 00:19:09,853
Come on.

338
00:19:21,283 --> 00:19:22,173
Have some water.

339
00:19:22,173 --> 00:19:22,933
Okay.

340
00:19:22,933 --> 00:19:23,533
Thank you.

341
00:19:23,753 --> 00:19:24,753
Fasten them well.

342
00:19:25,343 --> 00:19:26,103
Mr. Shen,

343
00:19:26,823 --> 00:19:27,893
you're a big shot.

344
00:19:27,933 --> 00:19:28,933
We all want to know

345
00:19:28,953 --> 00:19:30,533
how long this war will last.

346
00:19:30,573 --> 00:19:31,763
Take a break.

347
00:19:31,783 --> 00:19:33,353
Everyone is united now.

348
00:19:33,373 --> 00:19:35,213
The 19th Route Army is fighting fearlessly.

349
00:19:35,213 --> 00:19:36,443
The industrial and commercial sects are suspended.

350
00:19:36,443 --> 00:19:38,263
International public opinion is in full swing.

351
00:19:38,263 --> 00:19:39,923
If this continues,

352
00:19:39,983 --> 00:19:41,723
the Japanese won't last long.

353
00:19:41,813 --> 00:19:42,453
Yes!

354
00:19:42,483 --> 00:19:43,863
Send them back to their hometown!

355
00:19:43,863 --> 00:19:44,743
Yes.

356
00:19:45,013 --> 00:19:46,873
Send them back to their hometown!

357
00:19:47,773 --> 00:19:48,993
Give us back our country!

358
00:19:48,993 --> 00:19:50,513
Knock down the invaders!

359
00:19:50,533 --> 00:19:51,693
Send them back to their hometown!

360
00:19:51,693 --> 00:19:53,793
Send them back to their hometown!

361
00:19:53,813 --> 00:19:54,703
Let's go.

362
00:19:55,273 --> 00:19:56,373
Let's go!

363
00:19:56,413 --> 00:19:57,743
Mr. Shen, have some tea.

364
00:19:58,233 --> 00:19:58,843
Thank you.

365
00:19:58,863 --> 00:19:59,523
Be careful.

366
00:20:01,173 --> 00:20:01,893
Be careful.

367
00:20:02,193 --> 00:20:03,393
Be careful.

368
00:20:04,513 --> 00:20:05,713
Doggie, slow down.

369
00:20:07,583 --> 00:20:08,663
Hao, slow down.

370
00:20:31,583 --> 00:20:32,383
Sir,

371
00:20:32,713 --> 00:20:34,243
you're having dinner here?

372
00:20:35,813 --> 00:20:36,683
You must be hungry.

373
00:20:36,683 --> 00:20:37,313
Come on.

374
00:20:37,353 --> 00:20:38,173
Eat it soon.

375
00:20:38,173 --> 00:20:39,293
There's enough for everyone.

376
00:20:39,293 --> 00:20:39,613
There's more.

377
00:20:39,613 --> 00:20:41,133
Thank you, Hao.

378
00:20:41,133 --> 00:20:42,213
Have the supplies been delivered?

379
00:20:42,213 --> 00:20:43,013
Yes.

380
00:20:44,323 --> 00:20:45,413
Here, have this.

381
00:20:45,443 --> 00:20:46,573
Do you have pickles?

382
00:20:48,933 --> 00:20:49,933
Do you like it?

383
00:20:49,963 --> 00:20:50,453
Wei.

384
00:20:50,473 --> 00:20:51,403
It's delicious.

385
00:20:52,273 --> 00:20:53,273
This war

386
00:20:53,303 --> 00:20:54,223
is almost done.

387
00:20:54,253 --> 00:20:55,243
By next week,

388
00:20:55,913 --> 00:20:57,633
there should be definite news.

389
00:20:57,633 --> 00:20:58,633
That's great.

390
00:20:59,103 --> 00:21:00,233
You think it's good?

391
00:21:03,533 --> 00:21:04,563
I don't think so.

392
00:21:06,653 --> 00:21:08,183
The real challenge

393
00:21:09,593 --> 00:21:10,543
has just begun.

394
00:21:11,753 --> 00:21:13,913
Previously, the situation was just beginning to improve.

395
00:21:13,913 --> 00:21:15,273
Thanks to this war,

396
00:21:15,303 --> 00:21:16,723
the treasury is empty again.

397
00:21:16,723 --> 00:21:18,723
We can't do anything without money.

398
00:21:19,213 --> 00:21:20,603
Many construction plans

399
00:21:20,603 --> 00:21:22,663
can only be postponed indefinitely.

400
00:21:23,353 --> 00:21:25,413
Mr. Song was lamenting it yesterday.

401
00:21:25,413 --> 00:21:26,533
Why does so much

402
00:21:28,073 --> 00:21:30,433
disaster befall our nation and people?

403
00:21:30,453 --> 00:21:31,583
I don't understand.

404
00:21:38,473 --> 00:21:39,323
Sir,

405
00:21:40,533 --> 00:21:41,823
can we issue war bonds

406
00:21:41,823 --> 00:21:43,153
like the United States?

407
00:21:43,203 --> 00:21:45,273
Then our country will become stronger

408
00:21:45,273 --> 00:21:46,933
and we won't be afraid of wars.

409
00:21:47,763 --> 00:21:48,533
Sure.

410
00:21:49,193 --> 00:21:50,763
Can you tell the government

411
00:21:50,783 --> 00:21:51,683
to invite some

412
00:21:51,723 --> 00:21:53,593
influential figures to promote it for us?

413
00:21:53,593 --> 00:21:55,303
But one thing is missing.

414
00:21:57,773 --> 00:21:58,973
One thing is missing?

415
00:21:59,893 --> 00:22:01,093
Do you know what it is?

416
00:22:02,603 --> 00:22:03,353
You mean

417
00:22:03,553 --> 00:22:04,313
credit?

418
00:22:04,363 --> 00:22:05,243
That's right.

419
00:22:06,973 --> 00:22:08,173
Without credit,

420
00:22:08,303 --> 00:22:09,433
there is no finance.

421
00:22:10,113 --> 00:22:11,853
Credit is the foundation of finance

422
00:22:11,853 --> 00:22:13,523
and the lifeline of finance.

423
00:22:13,743 --> 00:22:14,793
A nation's credit

424
00:22:14,973 --> 00:22:17,023
can't be built overnight.

425
00:22:17,763 --> 00:22:19,693
We are all financial enterprises.

426
00:22:21,123 --> 00:22:22,383
We have a long way to go.

427
00:22:42,833 --> 00:22:44,663
We beat the Japanese.

428
00:22:45,873 --> 00:22:46,753
They asked me to burn some newspapers

429
00:22:46,753 --> 00:22:48,023
to show you.

430
00:22:48,353 --> 00:22:50,013
The Japanese have retreated!

431
00:22:51,733 --> 00:22:52,703
Rong Sheng,

432
00:22:52,733 --> 00:22:53,853
what's the use

433
00:22:54,353 --> 00:22:55,993
of burning newspapers?

434
00:22:57,333 --> 00:22:58,533
Burn some gold ingots

435
00:22:59,923 --> 00:23:02,713
and ask them to buy a house down there.

436
00:23:03,423 --> 00:23:06,023
A family will eventually be united.

437
00:23:07,003 --> 00:23:10,233
I'm afraid they'll reincarnate first and not wait for me.

438
00:23:10,633 --> 00:23:12,093
If that happens, let it be.

439
00:23:12,873 --> 00:23:13,943
Just find another family.

440
00:23:13,943 --> 00:23:15,093
You're still young.

441
00:23:16,563 --> 00:23:18,563
Qi's father was blown to death.

442
00:23:18,583 --> 00:23:20,043
His mother is still alive.

443
00:23:20,763 --> 00:23:21,673
Ms. Zhou.

444
00:23:21,713 --> 00:23:23,053
His mother is 60 years old.

445
00:23:23,053 --> 00:23:24,443
What do you know?

446
00:23:24,733 --> 00:23:26,043
Youthfulness doesn't matter

447
00:23:26,043 --> 00:23:28,173
when it comes to living life together.

448
00:23:28,273 --> 00:23:29,083
Wen.

449
00:23:29,113 --> 00:23:30,423
Go to Genbao's liquor store

450
00:23:30,423 --> 00:23:31,973
and fetch the aged liquor I ordered.

451
00:23:31,973 --> 00:23:34,013
I'll treat everyone to a drink and a meal tonight.

452
00:23:34,013 --> 00:23:35,163
Ms. Zhou, you're so generous.

453
00:23:35,163 --> 00:23:35,803
Of course.

454
00:23:38,583 --> 00:23:40,303
I'll pay for the meat.

455
00:23:40,323 --> 00:23:41,153
Get more meat.

456
00:23:41,193 --> 00:23:41,753
Okay.

457
00:23:41,773 --> 00:23:42,503
Don't worry.

458
00:23:43,333 --> 00:23:44,263
Old man.

459
00:23:44,733 --> 00:23:45,963
Where do you get the money

460
00:23:45,963 --> 00:23:47,313
to pay for the meat?

461
00:23:47,343 --> 00:23:49,473
You haven't paid me last month's rent.

462
00:23:50,053 --> 00:23:51,583
All right, don't worry.

463
00:23:51,603 --> 00:23:52,913
Take your time.

464
00:23:52,953 --> 00:23:54,113
No hurry.

465
00:23:54,723 --> 00:23:56,173
No hurry at all.

466
00:23:57,613 --> 00:24:00,053
We won, we deserve meat and wine.

467
00:24:00,053 --> 00:24:02,133
Young man, don't be too sad.

468
00:24:02,133 --> 00:24:03,033
Come on, let's have a meal together.

469
00:24:03,033 --> 00:24:05,033
Come to my house for dinner tonight.

470
00:24:05,943 --> 00:24:08,303
Take your time. Return my basket later.

471
00:24:16,663 --> 00:24:19,953
[Long live victory!]

472
00:24:24,493 --> 00:24:27,693
[Long live victory!]

473
00:24:31,243 --> 00:24:33,123
[Long live the 19th Route Army]

474
00:24:35,073 --> 00:24:36,423
We're resuming operation!

475
00:24:36,423 --> 00:24:38,483
Wishing us prosperity and good luck!

476
00:24:44,883 --> 00:24:46,213
Get your newspaper here!

477
00:24:46,213 --> 00:24:47,563
The war between China and Japan has ended.

478
00:24:47,563 --> 00:24:48,883
The League of Nations

479
00:24:48,903 --> 00:24:50,413
ruled in favor of China.

480
00:24:50,523 --> 00:24:51,653
Get your newspaper here!

481
00:24:51,653 --> 00:24:52,973
The war between China and Japan has ended

482
00:24:52,973 --> 00:24:54,443
The League of Nations

483
00:24:54,473 --> 00:24:55,803
ruled in favor of China.

484
00:24:56,363 --> 00:24:57,803
The League of Nations

485
00:24:57,833 --> 00:24:59,163
ruled in favor of China.

486
00:25:04,143 --> 00:25:05,673
Shameless and ridiculous.

487
00:25:06,023 --> 00:25:08,213
No Chinese garrison is allowed in Shanghai?

488
00:25:08,213 --> 00:25:09,943
What kind of agreement is this?

489
00:25:11,233 --> 00:25:14,363
We won the war. How did the negotiation turn out this way?

490
00:25:17,353 --> 00:25:18,113
Ruolai.

491
00:25:19,393 --> 00:25:20,593
What's on your mind?

492
00:25:22,653 --> 00:25:23,483
Sir,

493
00:25:24,063 --> 00:25:25,183
China will not die.

494
00:25:25,893 --> 00:25:27,823
Although the truce agreement was humiliating,

495
00:25:27,823 --> 00:25:28,943
the foreigners saw

496
00:25:28,943 --> 00:25:31,023
our army's fighting spirit and courage,

497
00:25:31,023 --> 00:25:33,423
and the people's determination to resist.

498
00:25:33,423 --> 00:25:34,183
Yes.

499
00:25:35,543 --> 00:25:36,603
After this battle,

500
00:25:36,863 --> 00:25:39,393
Japan won't cause any trouble for a few years.

501
00:25:39,653 --> 00:25:40,463
This has bought us

502
00:25:40,463 --> 00:25:42,063
some time for steady growth.

503
00:25:42,933 --> 00:25:45,193
The people traded their lives for these.

504
00:25:49,333 --> 00:25:52,063
Ms. Zhou helped the army wash gauze day and night.

505
00:25:57,693 --> 00:25:59,293
Support the 19th Route Army!

506
00:25:59,303 --> 00:26:01,023
Support the 19th Route Army!

507
00:26:01,023 --> 00:26:03,223
Get the Japanese out of here!

508
00:26:03,223 --> 00:26:06,253
Long live China!

509
00:26:06,813 --> 00:26:09,013
The dancers donated all their savings.

510
00:26:10,683 --> 00:26:13,733
The carters risked their lives to deliver the goods.

511
00:26:16,503 --> 00:26:17,903
The soldiers snuck under

512
00:26:18,273 --> 00:26:19,953
armored vehicles with grenades.

513
00:26:19,953 --> 00:26:21,683
When the country is in trouble,

514
00:26:21,993 --> 00:26:23,793
the people can be depended upon.

515
00:27:00,813 --> 00:27:01,543
Mr. Yu.

516
00:27:02,433 --> 00:27:03,163
Steward Liu.

517
00:27:04,343 --> 00:27:05,383
What's the meaning of this?

518
00:27:05,383 --> 00:27:07,743
Sorry, Shanghai hasn't been peaceful recently.

519
00:27:07,743 --> 00:27:09,143
Please excuse us, Mr. Yu.

520
00:27:09,623 --> 00:27:11,483
Surely, this doesn't apply to me.

521
00:27:12,263 --> 00:27:13,103
I'm sorry.

522
00:27:14,053 --> 00:27:14,863
Search them.

523
00:27:15,113 --> 00:27:15,933
What are you doing?

524
00:27:15,933 --> 00:27:16,663
Mingquan.

525
00:27:22,533 --> 00:27:23,293
Here.

526
00:27:25,933 --> 00:27:27,503
Okay. Mr. Yu, this way.

527
00:27:27,583 --> 00:27:28,223
Okay.

528
00:27:30,773 --> 00:27:31,703
You can't go in.

529
00:27:32,513 --> 00:27:34,153
Okay. You wait outside.

530
00:27:35,683 --> 00:27:36,943
Mr. Yu, please come in.

531
00:27:37,153 --> 00:27:37,513
Okay.

532
00:27:39,743 --> 00:27:40,393
Mr. Yu.

533
00:27:40,733 --> 00:27:42,333
What is Big Sister planning?

534
00:27:42,353 --> 00:27:44,023
Why is she being so mysterious?

535
00:27:44,023 --> 00:27:46,103
If I'm not mistaken,

536
00:27:46,103 --> 00:27:48,963
it should be about the construction treasury bill.

537
00:27:49,543 --> 00:27:51,573
Selling treasury bills right after the cease-fire?

538
00:27:51,573 --> 00:27:52,743
Will anyone buy it?

539
00:27:54,653 --> 00:27:56,143
I'm not sure about that.

540
00:27:56,733 --> 00:27:58,883
She only said this as a reply,

541
00:27:58,903 --> 00:28:00,833
"The people can be depended upon."

542
00:28:05,093 --> 00:28:06,413
Get your newspaper here!

543
00:28:06,413 --> 00:28:09,343
The Treasury Department has issued treasury bills

544
00:28:09,493 --> 00:28:11,573
for the construction of post-war Shanghai.

545
00:28:11,573 --> 00:28:14,633
Everyone has a responsibility to buy the treasury bills.

546
00:28:14,633 --> 00:28:16,593
Madam, would you like one?

547
00:28:17,973 --> 00:28:18,663
Sir.

548
00:28:18,903 --> 00:28:19,963
Would you like one?

549
00:28:22,023 --> 00:28:22,743
Sir.

550
00:28:22,743 --> 00:28:23,453
No. Go away.

551
00:28:29,293 --> 00:28:30,143
Sir.

552
00:28:30,783 --> 00:28:32,373
Would you like a treasury bill?

553
00:28:32,373 --> 00:28:33,493
Why would I?

554
00:28:34,003 --> 00:28:37,003
I went bankrupt because I bought bonds.

555
00:28:37,893 --> 00:28:38,703
Get lost!

556
00:28:39,903 --> 00:28:41,853
The distribution of the construction treasury bill

557
00:28:41,853 --> 00:28:43,133
is very important.

558
00:28:43,983 --> 00:28:45,183
The Treasury Department

559
00:28:45,183 --> 00:28:47,213
has assigned the main distribution mission to us.

560
00:28:47,213 --> 00:28:48,073
Eight million.

561
00:28:48,543 --> 00:28:50,183
The deadline is one month.

562
00:28:50,533 --> 00:28:51,703
Eight million?

563
00:28:52,173 --> 00:28:52,933
Sir.

564
00:28:53,293 --> 00:28:54,903
The economy hasn't recovered after the war.

565
00:28:54,903 --> 00:28:56,103
Even 80,000 is a challenge.

566
00:28:56,103 --> 00:28:57,103
Not necessarily.

567
00:28:57,103 --> 00:28:58,653
The people united and fought for the victory.

568
00:28:58,653 --> 00:28:59,443
The common folks

569
00:28:59,443 --> 00:29:01,333
have regained some confidence in the government.

570
00:29:01,333 --> 00:29:02,823
That's only temporary.

571
00:29:02,823 --> 00:29:04,853
The news about the treasury bills has long been out.

The Kuomintang is not a warlord.

580

is to raise more funds

As we all know,

the tariff management right belongs to the Central Bank.

609
00:30:20,093 --> 00:30:21,933
Since we have tariffs as collateral

But the launch of the treasury bills

647
00:32:04,773 --> 00:32:06,003

00:32:06,003 --> 00:32:06,693
Mr. Song.

To distribute the treasury bills successfully,

650
00:32:08,893 --> 00:32:10,973
I think two things are crucial.

00:32:11,273 --> 00:32:13,613
One is stability, and the other is credibility.

Moving on,

653
00:32:14,353 --> 00:32:16,053
I plan to contact the major banks to control

654
00:32:16,053 --> 00:32:19,183
the issuance of treasury bills, led by the Central Bank.

655
00:32:19,183 --> 00:32:19,873

658
00:32:22,773 --> 00:32:24,613
and stabilize the price of the treasury bills.

659
00:32:24,613 --> 00:32:26,463
Only when the Central Bank is in charge

660
00:32:26,463 --> 00:32:27,903
can the funds collected from the treasury bills

661
00:32:27,903 --> 00:32:30,043
really flow into industrial fields.

00:36:50,013 --> 00:36:51,183
Consider this another warning.

761
00:36:51,183 --> 00:36:53,383
Stop bargaining with the Central Bank.

762
00:36:55,473 --> 00:36:58,863
[Li Anrong]

763
00:37:10,053 --> 00:37:11,783
I gathered everyone here today

764
00:37:11,893 --> 00:37:14,583
to unite together and control the

765
00:37:14,603 --> 00:37:16,483
price of the construction treasury bills.

766
00:37:16,483 --> 00:37:17,633
I must emphasize two things.

767
00:37:17,633 --> 00:37:19,933
First, this must be strictly confidential.

768
00:37:19,933 --> 00:37:22,303
Second, operation orders are like military orders.

769
00:37:22,303 --> 00:37:23,433
If anyone disobeys,

770
00:37:23,863 --> 00:37:27,023
I promise your bank will disappear from Shanghai.

771
00:37:29,823 --> 00:37:31,493
Why must we do as he said?

772
00:37:31,533 --> 00:37:32,963
How can we make money this way?

773
00:37:32,963 --> 00:37:34,333
He even threatened to erase our banks from Shanghai.

774
00:37:34,333 --> 00:37:35,423
Who does he think he is?

775
00:37:35,423 --> 00:37:35,893
What a joke!

776
00:37:35,893 --> 00:37:37,623
In Shanghai,

777
00:37:37,623 --> 00:37:39,053
we are all influential individuals.

778
00:37:39,053 --> 00:37:40,053
He doesn't know his place.

779
00:37:40,053 --> 00:37:42,143
Does he take us for fools?

780
00:37:42,143 --> 00:37:43,053
Who made him the boss?

781
00:37:43,053 --> 00:37:44,313
Who cares what he said?

782
00:37:44,983 --> 00:37:47,733
The Treasury Department mortgaged the treasury bills to us

783
00:37:47,733 --> 00:37:49,253
at 50 per bill.

784
00:37:50,413 --> 00:37:53,143
If we play the game right, we can earn a lot.

785
00:37:53,623 --> 00:37:55,183
We can't afford to play this game.

786
00:37:55,183 --> 00:37:56,813
No matter what they do,

787
00:37:57,013 --> 00:38:00,063
the price of the treasure bills cannot be maintained at 70.

788
00:38:00,063 --> 00:38:01,903
Sooner or later, it will fall back.

789
00:38:01,903 --> 00:38:03,433
Even if we sell at 60 yuan,

790
00:38:03,583 --> 00:38:05,173
we can still get a 10 yuan profit per bill.

791
00:38:05,173 --> 00:38:06,503
It's against the rules.

792
00:38:06,573 --> 00:38:08,743
The Treasury Department clearly states that

793
00:38:08,743 --> 00:38:09,863
treasury bills cannot be sold

794
00:38:09,863 --> 00:38:12,063
directly in the trading firm.

795
00:38:12,463 --> 00:38:15,223
Why are you afraid of buying back at 50?

796
00:38:15,223 --> 00:38:17,133
Given the state of the government,

797
00:38:17,133 --> 00:38:19,893
I would be grateful

798
00:38:19,893 --> 00:38:21,623
if it's even worth 30 yuan in the end.

799
00:38:21,623 --> 00:38:22,463
That's right.

800
00:38:22,623 --> 00:38:23,353
Don't worry.

801
00:38:23,973 --> 00:38:25,143
Don't worry.

802
00:38:25,143 --> 00:38:27,613
I have an informant in the Treasury Department.

803
00:38:27,613 --> 00:38:28,933
If there is any news,

804
00:38:29,103 --> 00:38:31,553
I'll inform you immediately.

805
00:38:33,593 --> 00:38:36,153
But this is an illegal move.

806
00:38:36,783 --> 00:38:38,143
You're earning

807
00:38:38,463 --> 00:38:39,193
risky money.

808
00:38:45,473 --> 00:38:47,953
As the old saying goes,

809
00:38:49,033 --> 00:38:50,963
if you won't take the opportunity,

810
00:38:51,423 --> 00:38:53,423
you must take the blame.

811
00:38:53,743 --> 00:38:56,073
Even the Treasury Department can do this.

812
00:38:56,503 --> 00:38:58,093
Why can't we?

813
00:38:58,463 --> 00:39:00,053
Don't be too greedy.

814
00:39:00,423 --> 00:39:02,303
We'll sell it at 60

815
00:39:02,933 --> 00:39:05,133
and buy back when it falls to 50.

816
00:39:05,453 --> 00:39:07,463
The higher-ups get the lion's share,

817
00:39:07,463 --> 00:39:09,223
but we get our small profits too.

818
00:39:09,223 --> 00:39:09,903
Haven't we

819
00:39:10,143 --> 00:39:12,253
been doing this for decades?

820
00:39:12,253 --> 00:39:13,013
Yes.

821
00:39:13,113 --> 00:39:14,113
That's right.

822
00:39:15,303 --> 00:39:16,973
We're the financial sector,

823
00:39:17,703 --> 00:39:19,463
not a charity place.

824
00:39:20,973 --> 00:39:21,933
Understand?

825
00:39:27,713 --> 00:39:28,573
Let's do it.

826
00:39:44,783 --> 00:39:45,393
Mr. Yu!

827
00:39:46,793 --> 00:39:47,673
Mr. Yu.

828
00:39:48,253 --> 00:39:49,013
What’s wrong?

829
00:39:49,013 --> 00:39:49,943
Done.

830
00:39:50,133 --> 00:39:50,623
Really?

831
00:39:50,773 --> 00:39:51,733
Really.

832
00:39:52,543 --> 00:39:53,783
These old players

833
00:39:53,853 --> 00:39:56,613
can't resist the temptation of huge profits.

834
00:39:58,213 --> 00:40:00,933
It's called being too clever to be wise.

835
00:40:01,433 --> 00:40:02,273
They said

836
00:40:02,303 --> 00:40:04,843
they would take turns selling it starting tomorrow

837
00:40:04,843 --> 00:40:06,173
to test the water first.

838
00:40:06,333 --> 00:40:08,653
We'll buy as many as they sell.

839
00:40:08,673 --> 00:40:09,413
Okay.

840
00:40:09,663 --> 00:40:12,413
We need to maintain the price of the treasury bills.

841
00:40:12,413 --> 00:40:13,773
This is for the country.

842
00:40:13,793 --> 00:40:14,303
Yes.

843
00:40:14,333 --> 00:40:16,533
Maybe in the future,

844
00:40:16,823 --> 00:40:19,353
the Treasury Department will give us a medal.

845
00:40:19,843 --> 00:40:20,603
Really?

846
00:40:22,413 --> 00:40:25,853
Mr. Yu, you are brilliant.

847
00:40:26,703 --> 00:40:28,413
Ms. Zhou, you cooked too much.

848
00:40:28,903 --> 00:40:29,893
It's enough, Ms. Zhou.

849
00:40:29,893 --> 00:40:30,693
It's too much.

850
00:40:30,733 --> 00:40:31,863
Too much.

851
00:40:32,703 --> 00:40:33,903
We can't finish them.

852
00:40:33,993 --> 00:40:34,903
Ms. Zhou, this is such a luxurious spread.

853
00:40:34,903 --> 00:40:35,623
Wei.

854
00:40:37,973 --> 00:40:38,853
We were waiting for you.

855
00:40:38,853 --> 00:40:39,783
Why are you here?

856
00:40:40,233 --> 00:40:42,633
They are Wen's friends. I called them here.

857
00:40:42,903 --> 00:40:43,433
Ms. Zhou.

858
00:40:43,443 --> 00:40:44,883
What's the occasion?

859
00:40:45,623 --> 00:40:48,093
Ms. Zhou is rich now.

860
00:40:48,983 --> 00:40:50,793
I went to buy the treasury bills today.

861
00:40:50,793 --> 00:40:52,733
I bought them from your bank.

862
00:40:52,763 --> 00:40:53,853
I spent 100 yuan

863
00:40:54,493 --> 00:40:55,353
and got 2 bills.

864
00:40:55,893 --> 00:40:57,543
Guess how much I earned.

865
00:40:57,823 --> 00:40:58,613
Thirty.

866
00:41:02,633 --> 00:41:03,783
He's from the bank.

867
00:41:03,803 --> 00:41:05,003
Of course he knows.

868
00:41:05,173 --> 00:41:06,603
Congratulations, Ms. Zhou.

869
00:41:06,603 --> 00:41:07,563
Come on.

870
00:41:08,553 --> 00:41:10,473
Thank you, Ms. Zhou.

871
00:41:10,503 --> 00:41:11,943
Thank you, Ms. Zhou.

872
00:41:11,973 --> 00:41:12,823
Thank you, Ms. Zhou.

873
00:41:12,823 --> 00:41:13,733
Eat up.

874
00:41:13,733 --> 00:41:15,133
There's more at the back.

875
00:41:17,493 --> 00:41:18,343
Newspaper.

876
00:41:19,503 --> 00:41:21,823
This is today's newspaper. Read it.

877
00:41:22,653 --> 00:41:24,843
See if there's any news.

878
00:41:25,743 --> 00:41:27,343
He's reading the newspaper.

879
00:41:27,693 --> 00:41:29,343
The director of the Treasury Department's government bond sector

880
00:41:29,343 --> 00:41:31,603
personally sent a telegram from Nanjing

881
00:41:31,653 --> 00:41:34,583
to invest 500,000 in more construction treasury bill.

882
00:41:34,583 --> 00:41:35,583
What does that mean?

883
00:41:35,583 --> 00:41:37,293
It means the bills' value is expected to rise.

884
00:41:37,293 --> 00:41:38,293
Expected to rise.

885
00:41:39,303 --> 00:41:41,453
I hear the staff in the Central Bank

886
00:41:41,453 --> 00:41:43,183
bought hundreds of thousands of treasury bills.

887
00:41:43,183 --> 00:41:43,893
Is it true?

888
00:41:43,893 --> 00:41:44,463
Yes. Is it true?

889
00:41:44,463 --> 00:41:47,053
We did hold a fundraising meeting yesterday.

890
00:41:47,053 --> 00:41:48,113
I also bought some.

891
00:41:51,013 --> 00:41:52,663
Wei, one of my socialite passengers

892
00:41:52,663 --> 00:41:53,503
told me today

893
00:41:53,773 --> 00:41:55,633
that the government is preparing

894
00:41:55,743 --> 00:41:57,973
to issue a medal of honor to citizens

895
00:41:57,973 --> 00:41:59,173
who invested in the construction treasury bills.

896
00:41:59,173 --> 00:42:00,873
-I heard about it too.
-Really?

897
00:42:00,873 --> 00:42:03,393
I bought some bills. They should give me a medal.

898
00:42:03,393 --> 00:42:05,903
Of course. You bought some.

899
00:42:05,943 --> 00:42:08,103
Keep reading. What else is there?

900
00:42:08,133 --> 00:42:09,263
Hurry, keep reading.

901
00:42:09,263 --> 00:42:12,233
Shanghai Banking Association raised 1.5 million yuan

902
00:42:12,233 --> 00:42:13,743
to purchase the construction treasury bills.

903
00:42:13,743 --> 00:42:15,643
Mr. Gong of the Treasury Department personally published an article,

904
00:42:15,643 --> 00:42:18,303
calling on all sectors of society to actively participate

905
00:42:18,303 --> 00:42:20,613
in the financial reinvestment of the nation's industries.

906
00:42:20,613 --> 00:42:21,613
It's a good thing.

907
00:42:23,303 --> 00:42:24,893
Do you think we should buy some bills too?

908
00:42:24,893 --> 00:42:25,453
Yeah.

909
00:42:25,453 --> 00:42:27,383
We all contributed to the country.

910
00:42:28,183 --> 00:42:30,943
Calm down.

911
00:42:30,943 --> 00:42:31,583
Calm down.

912
00:42:32,683 --> 00:42:33,513
Wei,

913
00:42:34,263 --> 00:42:36,203
do you have any internal information?

914
00:42:36,203 --> 00:42:38,563
Yeah, Wei, tell us.

915
00:42:38,603 --> 00:42:39,383
Yes.

916
00:42:39,563 --> 00:42:42,013
But I can't tell you the details.

917
00:42:43,243 --> 00:42:44,543
Tell us.

918
00:42:44,613 --> 00:42:45,683
-What can’t you say?
-Wei.

919
00:42:45,683 --> 00:42:46,883
Don't talk.

920
00:42:47,303 --> 00:42:50,453
Just nod or shake your head.

921
00:42:50,503 --> 00:42:51,653
Come on. That's right.

922
00:42:51,653 --> 00:42:53,293
Should we buy more bills?

923
00:42:53,523 --> 00:42:55,403
Yeah, that's right.
