00:01:50,470 --> 00:01:51,910
Welcome to

5
00:01:51,910 --> 00:01:54,550
the Returning to Shore Cup
Poetry Contest.

6
00:01:54,940 --> 00:01:57,670
(Returning to Shore Cup)
Currently, our record holder is

7
00:01:57,670 --> 00:01:58,470
Qian Liang,

8
00:01:58,470 --> 00:01:59,390
Mr. Qian!

9
00:01:59,910 --> 00:02:01,580
- Qian!
- Qian!

10
00:02:01,580 --> 00:02:04,124
- Press forward without hesitation!
- Press forward without hesitation!

11
00:02:06,470 --> 00:02:08,180
Up next, let's welcome

12
00:02:08,180 --> 00:02:09,830
today's challenger,

13
00:02:09,830 --> 00:02:11,950
Mrs. Wang Mingxia!

14
00:02:21,230 --> 00:02:22,390
Let the contest

15
00:02:22,390 --> 00:02:23,950
begin!

16
00:02:38,620 --> 00:02:39,700
Mr. Qian, recite a poem.

17
00:02:40,270 --> 00:02:42,270
He Zhizhang, Tang Dynasty.

18
00:02:42,270 --> 00:02:43,350
Ode to the Willow.

19
00:02:43,670 --> 00:02:46,270
Like emerald jade,
the willow stands so tall,

20
00:02:46,270 --> 00:02:48,790
ten thousand
green silk ribbons gently fall.

21
00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:50,900
Who cut these slender leaves
so fine and neat?

22
00:02:50,900 --> 00:02:53,420
The spring breeze in February
is like a pair of scissors.

23
00:02:53,420 --> 00:02:55,140
- Excellent!
- Excellent!

24
00:02:57,140 --> 00:02:58,790
Mr. Qian, there's no need to worry.

25
00:02:58,990 --> 00:03:01,140
Returning to Shore has
a dialect recognition function.

26
00:03:02,550 --> 00:03:03,390
Mrs. Wang,

27
00:03:03,390 --> 00:03:04,270
it's your turn now.

28
00:03:04,270 --> 00:03:05,700
Du Fu, Tang Dynasty.

29
00:03:05,700 --> 00:03:08,420
On Hearing That the Imperial Army
Has Recovered Henan and Hebei.

30
00:03:08,860 --> 00:03:11,460
It's said that suddenly
Jibei is recaptured.

31
00:03:11,460 --> 00:03:13,830
At first, I hear it,
tears soak all my clothes.

32
00:03:13,830 --> 00:03:16,230
I turn to see my wife and children.
Where has sorrow gone?

33
00:03:16,230 --> 00:03:18,830
I loosely roll my books and poems,
joy near madness grows.

34
00:03:18,830 --> 00:03:21,420
In daylight, singing loud,
I must drink deep.

35
00:03:21,420 --> 00:03:23,550
With youth as company,
how gladly I go home.

36
00:03:23,550 --> 00:03:25,270
- Excellent!
- Excellent!

37
00:03:28,110 --> 00:03:29,900
Liu Changqing, Tang Dynasty.

38
00:03:29,990 --> 00:03:31,550
Seeing Off the Monk Lingche.

39
00:03:31,550 --> 00:03:33,460
In dusky green,
the Bamboo Grove Temple stands.

40
00:03:33,460 --> 00:03:35,990
Faint, distant bells
resound at evening's end.

41
00:03:35,990 --> 00:03:37,350
Wang Wei, Tang Dynasty.

42
00:03:37,350 --> 00:03:38,300
Birdsong Valley.

43
00:03:38,300 --> 00:03:39,790
In quiet ease, osmanthus blossoms fall;

44
00:03:39,790 --> 00:03:41,368
Night deepens,
spring hills lie empty, still.

45
00:03:41,368 --> 00:03:42,620
Wang Bo, Tang Dynasty.

46
00:03:43,070 --> 00:03:43,830
In the Mountains.

47
00:03:43,830 --> 00:03:45,849
The long river grieves,
its course seemingly stalled.

48
00:03:45,850 --> 00:03:47,960
From ten thousand miles away,
my heart yearns for home.

49
00:03:48,110 --> 00:03:49,550
Wang Changling, Tang Dynasty.

50
00:03:49,550 --> 00:03:51,213
(Poetry Contest)
Seeing Off Guo, the Clerk.

51
00:03:51,213 --> 00:03:53,110
The Huai River
glimmers green beside the gate.

52
00:03:53,110 --> 00:03:55,146
Reined-in horses linger,
bound by the host's heart.

53
00:03:57,230 --> 00:03:58,670
Lu You, Song Dynasty.

54
00:03:58,700 --> 00:03:59,950
The Long Ballad.

55
00:03:59,990 --> 00:04:02,110
The nation's wrongs unavenged,
heroes grow old.

56
00:04:02,110 --> 00:04:04,390
At night, the treasured sword
in its case still rings.

57
00:04:04,390 --> 00:04:06,510
When shall we triumph,
feast the valiant host;

58
00:04:06,620 --> 00:04:08,990
As midnight snow
weighs down Feihu City's walls?

59
00:04:09,660 --> 00:04:10,350
(Victory)

60
00:04:10,350 --> 00:04:12,230
- Excellent!
- Excellent!

61
00:04:13,420 --> 00:04:14,020
Excellent!

62
00:04:17,300 --> 00:04:18,500
Mr. Qian, that's alright.

63
00:04:18,790 --> 00:04:19,910
You've already done great.

64
00:04:19,910 --> 00:04:21,790
We still have plenty
of prizes waiting for you.

65
00:04:21,790 --> 00:04:23,550
(Sloth Gym)
This is a lifetime membership card

66
00:04:23,550 --> 00:04:24,990
for Tengda's Sloth Gym.

67
00:04:24,990 --> 00:04:25,990
This is great!

68
00:04:25,990 --> 00:04:26,820
Come, Mr. Qian.

69
00:04:31,990 --> 00:04:33,110
Let's take a group photo

70
00:04:33,350 --> 00:04:34,150
as a keepsake.

71
00:04:34,150 --> 00:04:36,150
(Returning to Shore Cup,
Jinchuan City's First Poetry Contest)

72
00:04:36,180 --> 00:04:36,620
Recently,

73
00:04:36,620 --> 00:04:39,146
the Returning to Shore Cup,
Jinchuan City's First Poetry Contest,

74
00:04:39,146 --> 00:04:40,470
has been held in full swing

75
00:04:40,470 --> 00:04:42,324
at multiple parks and communities

76
00:04:42,346 --> 00:04:43,590
across the city.

77
00:04:43,820 --> 00:04:44,550
(It is reported)

78
00:04:44,550 --> 00:04:46,300
(that this surge in
poetry-reciting enthusiasm)

79
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:47,260
(is linked to a game titled)

80
00:04:47,260 --> 00:04:49,435
(Jinchuan City's First Poetry Contest)
(Returning to Shore.)

81
00:04:49,435 --> 00:04:51,500
(The game gained rapid popularity)

82
00:04:51,500 --> 00:04:53,435
(and sparked widespread social attention)

83
00:04:53,435 --> 00:04:54,480
(due to its unique design)

84
00:04:54,502 --> 00:04:57,260
(that cleverly integrates elements
of classical poetry into gameplay.)

85
00:04:57,260 --> 00:04:59,680
(The game "Returning to Shore"
is a platform where gaming meets)

86
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,102
(traditional culture to spark new ideas.)

87
00:05:01,124 --> 00:05:03,300
Not all video games are bad for us.

88
00:05:03,300 --> 00:05:05,380
There can also be games
that combine education

89
00:05:05,380 --> 00:05:07,146
with entertainment
and help people improve.

90
00:05:07,146 --> 00:05:07,990
Tengda

91
00:05:07,990 --> 00:05:09,740
has always held such a belief.

92
00:05:09,740 --> 00:05:11,180
We devote ourselves to developing

93
00:05:11,180 --> 00:05:12,420
more positive

94
00:05:12,420 --> 00:05:14,620
and meaningful games for players.

95
00:05:14,670 --> 00:05:15,990
(For Returning to Shore,)

96
00:05:15,990 --> 00:05:17,230
(not only did we develop)

97
00:05:17,230 --> 00:05:18,860
(the Poetry Contest Mini Program)

98
00:05:18,860 --> 00:05:20,368
(and hold the Top Ranking Contest,)

99
00:05:20,420 --> 00:05:22,500
(but we also held many offline events)

100
00:05:22,500 --> 00:05:24,420
(in the city.)

101
00:05:24,420 --> 00:05:26,620
(Our goal is to enable
groups beyond players to join in)

102
00:05:26,620 --> 00:05:27,860
(and foster a nationwide passion)

103
00:05:27,860 --> 00:05:29,990
(for classical poetry culture.)

104
00:05:31,740 --> 00:05:32,990
What do you guys think?

105
00:05:33,180 --> 00:05:35,420
Bao, you looked pretty photogenic.

106
00:05:35,420 --> 00:05:36,180
Really?

107
00:05:36,300 --> 00:05:37,813
You looked much more energetic on TV.

108
00:05:37,860 --> 00:05:40,500
But it feels awkward
when I see myself on TV.

109
00:05:40,613 --> 00:05:42,746
Ms. Lin Wan, people
have been contacting me non-stop.

110
00:05:42,746 --> 00:05:44,860
They're requesting authorization
for a poetry event.

111
00:05:44,860 --> 00:05:45,940
Me too.

112
00:05:45,968 --> 00:05:47,680
Numerous university clubs,
community groups,

113
00:05:47,746 --> 00:05:49,680
and even senior universities
have approached us.

114
00:05:49,724 --> 00:05:51,500
Many people had
signed up for the event online.

115
00:05:51,500 --> 00:05:52,924
It's way more than I had imagined.

116
00:05:52,946 --> 00:05:55,168
We need to test the mini program
as soon as possible.

117
00:05:55,300 --> 00:05:55,740
Alright.

118
00:05:55,860 --> 00:05:57,300
Let's do it, then.

119
00:05:57,300 --> 00:05:58,180
Time to work.

120
00:06:03,060 --> 00:06:04,940
Returning to Shore Program Team!

121
00:06:04,940 --> 00:06:07,110
Come to the meeting room!

122
00:06:09,940 --> 00:06:11,110
I'm sorry, Mr. Pei.

123
00:06:11,110 --> 00:06:12,420
The hype of Returning to Shore

124
00:06:12,420 --> 00:06:14,380
is primarily focused on
schools, communities,

125
00:06:14,380 --> 00:06:15,670
and the elderly.

126
00:06:15,670 --> 00:06:16,990
Judging by the current trend,

127
00:06:16,990 --> 00:06:18,110
we can only break even at most

128
00:06:18,110 --> 00:06:19,620
by the end of the month.

129
00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:22,550
It's way less than Divine General Pact

130
00:06:22,550 --> 00:06:24,260
and Deserted Island Sharpshooter.

131
00:06:24,260 --> 00:06:25,110
It's our fault.

132
00:06:27,180 --> 00:06:28,500
Did you say

133
00:06:29,110 --> 00:06:32,060
that Returning to Shore
will break even this month?

134
00:06:32,500 --> 00:06:34,550
Barely.

135
00:06:34,550 --> 00:06:36,740
This is primarily due to your strategy.

136
00:06:37,500 --> 00:06:38,380
My strategy?

137
00:06:40,860 --> 00:06:42,260
What strategy?

138
00:06:42,260 --> 00:06:43,110
Did you forget?

139
00:06:43,110 --> 00:06:45,420
When I asked you about
the game's promotion,

140
00:06:45,420 --> 00:06:47,670
you told me to increase
the publicity cost

141
00:06:47,670 --> 00:06:49,500
and spend as much money as I should.

142
00:06:49,670 --> 00:06:53,670
So, that's why you held
a lucky draw in Jinchuan, huh?

143
00:06:57,940 --> 00:06:58,820
Lv,

144
00:06:59,124 --> 00:07:00,230
I'm sure you've devoted

145
00:07:00,230 --> 00:07:02,060
a lot of effort into
this project as well.

146
00:07:02,591 --> 00:07:04,620
So, did you just come to
and get off work on time

147
00:07:04,620 --> 00:07:06,568
just to set up
a good image in front of me?

148
00:07:06,591 --> 00:07:07,990
No. Mr. Pei, that's not it.

149
00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:08,591
This project...

150
00:07:08,613 --> 00:07:10,380
He didn't work overtime at all.

151
00:07:10,380 --> 00:07:12,500
He was just fast and efficient
in writing code.

152
00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:13,550
Yeah.

153
00:07:13,550 --> 00:07:14,968
Mr. Pei, after that, I realized

154
00:07:15,013 --> 00:07:17,030
that you were different
from other business owners.

155
00:07:17,030 --> 00:07:19,110
That's why I wanted to try my best.

156
00:07:19,110 --> 00:07:19,990
But don't worry.

157
00:07:19,990 --> 00:07:21,368
Although I don't work overtime,

158
00:07:21,391 --> 00:07:22,857
I promise to finish my tasks on time.

159
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,940
It's because this job
is a piece of cake for me.

160
00:07:26,146 --> 00:07:27,280
Mr. Pei, before this, you said

161
00:07:27,324 --> 00:07:30,110
that Returning to Shore must strive to
reach the standard of a top-tier game

162
00:07:30,110 --> 00:07:31,724
and that the investment in art resources

163
00:07:31,724 --> 00:07:33,500
must be maximized.
Since you were so supportive,

164
00:07:33,500 --> 00:07:36,080
Ruan Guangjian and his department
actually gave this project their all.

165
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:37,940
The original artwork
is absolutely stunning.

166
00:07:39,550 --> 00:07:41,420
Mr. Pei, Ruan Guangjian is here.

167
00:07:45,380 --> 00:07:46,550
Mr. Pei,

168
00:07:46,550 --> 00:07:48,380
I have to apologize to you.

169
00:07:48,380 --> 00:07:49,657
I admit I did a half-hearted job

170
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:50,940
on Divine General Pact's artwork.

171
00:07:50,940 --> 00:07:51,940
Sorry about that.

172
00:07:52,110 --> 00:07:52,860
It was because

173
00:07:52,860 --> 00:07:53,790
I thought you were

174
00:07:53,790 --> 00:07:54,380
a terrible...

175
00:07:54,380 --> 00:07:55,110
No, I mean,

176
00:07:55,110 --> 00:07:56,550
an ordinary business owner.

177
00:07:56,550 --> 00:07:57,820
That's why I gave you that.

178
00:07:57,820 --> 00:07:58,620
I didn't expect you

179
00:07:58,620 --> 00:07:59,990
to let me pass on the first draft.

180
00:07:59,990 --> 00:08:01,420
And, you even paid me a lot for it.

181
00:08:01,420 --> 00:08:02,502
My partners and I thought

182
00:08:02,502 --> 00:08:03,550
that we'd let you down.

183
00:08:03,550 --> 00:08:04,500
Therefore, this time,

184
00:08:04,500 --> 00:08:05,940
I'll surely do my best.

185
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,035
Back when Guangjian was at rock bottom,

186
00:08:08,035 --> 00:08:08,810
fresh out of school,

187
00:08:08,810 --> 00:08:10,940
he was tormented by his client
until he questioned his existence.

188
00:08:10,940 --> 00:08:11,870
But after meeting you,

189
00:08:11,870 --> 00:08:13,991
he thought that producing
excellent work was worth it.

190
00:08:14,013 --> 00:08:16,180
The ink-wash style Lin Wan had chosen

191
00:08:16,180 --> 00:08:18,300
fits perfectly with poetry.

192
00:08:18,420 --> 00:08:20,470
Thus, I was hugely inspired.

193
00:08:20,740 --> 00:08:23,180
Mr. Ruan, it's all thanks
to your excellent work.

194
00:08:23,180 --> 00:08:24,724
It has gone viral in the original art,

195
00:08:24,746 --> 00:08:26,740

art style communities.

196
00:08:26,740 --> 00:08:27,880
It has become widely popular.

199

Jian!

200
00:08:37,660 --> 00:08:38,620
Where are your glasses?

201
00:08:39,590 --> 00:08:40,470
Thanks to you,

202
00:08:40,470 --> 00:08:41,470
I made quite a fortune.

203
00:08:41,470 --> 00:08:43,190
After we met
at the phone booth that day,

204
00:08:43,190 --> 00:08:45,190
I had LASIK surgery the other day.

205
00:08:45,190 --> 00:08:47,413
Now that his vision is normal,
he draws much faster.

206
00:08:48,190 --> 00:08:49,500
But the problem is,

207
00:08:49,500 --> 00:08:50,780
ours is a soul-like.

208
00:08:51,500 --> 00:08:52,830
It's a difficult game.

209
00:08:52,830 --> 00:08:54,950
And, it has a theme related to poetry.

210
00:08:55,780 --> 00:08:56,919
The sarcasm is off the charts.

211
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,230
Who actually plays a game like this?

212
00:08:58,230 --> 00:08:59,590
Mr. Pei, you're right.

213
00:08:59,590 --> 00:09:01,380

has sparked a nationwide craze
for learning classical poetry.

217

Even public opinion has turned positive.

Why didn't you guys

219
00:09:21,660 --> 00:09:23,500
tell me about it earlier?

220

that our back-end data was skyrocketing.

00:09:37,950 --> 00:09:39,140

can you help us take a photo?

362
00:14:44,830 --> 00:14:46,620
Come. All of you, sit here.

363
00:14:46,660 --> 00:14:48,070
Here, help us take a group photo.

364
00:14:48,070 --> 00:14:49,190
Alright.

365
00:14:50,310 --> 00:14:50,900
Okay.

366
00:14:51,310 --> 00:14:52,260
Ladies and gentlemen,

367
00:14:52,260 --> 00:14:53,190
take a group photo.

368
00:14:53,190 --> 00:14:53,950
Okay.

369
00:14:53,950 --> 00:14:55,950
Have a sweet life!

370
00:14:55,950 --> 00:14:57,500
20 million yuan!

371
00:14:57,660 --> 00:15:00,780
(Away with all the troubles,
have a sweet life)

372
00:15:05,140 --> 00:15:06,310
What?

373
00:15:06,500 --> 00:15:08,620
Li Shi invested 20 million yuan
in Sloth Gym?

374
00:15:21,620 --> 00:15:22,540
Deity above,

375
00:15:23,140 --> 00:15:25,020
please accept my offerings.

376
00:15:27,950 --> 00:15:29,070
From now on,

377
00:15:29,070 --> 00:15:31,124
you'll enjoy the main course
while I'll enjoy the soup.

378
00:15:31,124 --> 00:15:32,380
Let's make it a win-win situation.

379
00:15:32,830 --> 00:15:34,540
It's decided then.

380
00:15:35,190 --> 00:15:36,070
Mr. Li Jr.,

381
00:15:36,710 --> 00:15:38,540
this is my first time seeing you

382
00:15:38,540 --> 00:15:39,590
so generous

383
00:15:39,590 --> 00:15:41,140
with giving Yakult away.

384
00:15:42,430 --> 00:15:43,950
What do you know?

385
00:15:43,950 --> 00:15:45,190
In the business world,

386
00:15:45,860 --> 00:15:47,260
a generous heart

387
00:15:47,260 --> 00:15:50,590
will earn you the world.

388
00:16:00,746 --> 00:16:01,860
Prepare a car for me.

389
00:16:02,110 --> 00:16:02,740
Okay.

390
00:16:04,140 --> 00:16:07,740
(Mingyun Villa)

391
00:16:20,140 --> 00:16:21,990
All your dishes have arrived.
Please enjoy.

392
00:16:23,020 --> 00:16:24,310
Isn't this the fish I just caught?

393
00:16:24,310 --> 00:16:25,070
It's super fresh.

394
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,310
Alright, thank you so much.

395
00:16:26,310 --> 00:16:27,213
Go and take a bath.

396
00:16:27,540 --> 00:16:28,140
Okay.

397
00:16:31,110 --> 00:16:31,860
Mr. Li Jr.,

398
00:16:32,230 --> 00:16:34,260
I appreciate your kind intention,

399
00:16:34,260 --> 00:16:36,380
but can you please not
treat me to a meal next time?

400
00:16:36,380 --> 00:16:38,500
Just wire the money to my account, okay?

401
00:16:40,620 --> 00:16:41,380
Mr. Pei,

402
00:16:41,724 --> 00:16:43,620
you still like to crack jokes,
don't you?

403
00:16:44,146 --> 00:16:46,124
When I invited you
to Ming House for a meal,

404
00:16:46,146 --> 00:16:47,430
you rejected me every time.

405
00:16:47,435 --> 00:16:49,380
Now, I've come all the way
to your private kitchen

406
00:16:49,380 --> 00:16:50,660
and caught a fish here.

407
00:16:50,660 --> 00:16:52,540
I'm sure you'll enjoy
the meal now, right?

408
00:16:54,260 --> 00:16:55,780
I'm not joking.

409
00:16:56,020 --> 00:16:57,540
I was dealt

410
00:16:57,540 --> 00:16:58,780
a serious blow in life recently.

411
00:16:58,780 --> 00:17:00,540
I'm at my lowest point in life.

412
00:17:00,540 --> 00:17:02,710
I won't be able to last for long.

413
00:17:04,020 --> 00:17:05,300
To be honest,

414
00:17:05,780 --> 00:17:07,470
I can barely pay my mortgage now.

415
00:17:07,470 --> 00:17:08,820
The meal you're having today

416
00:17:08,820 --> 00:17:10,710
is costing me a few months'
worth of expenses.

417
00:17:11,780 --> 00:17:14,990
Mr. Pei, I didn't expect you
to be this straightforward.

418
00:17:15,300 --> 00:17:17,230
It seems you do take me
as a real friend.

419
00:17:20,300 --> 00:17:20,950
Mr. Pei,

420
00:17:21,150 --> 00:17:22,390
when it comes to business,

421
00:17:22,390 --> 00:17:24,060
having a tight cash flow

422
00:17:24,060 --> 00:17:25,540
is actually quite common.

423
00:17:25,568 --> 00:17:27,546
I do find myself in
that situation sometimes as well.

424
00:17:27,568 --> 00:17:28,390
Don't worry about it.

425
00:17:30,020 --> 00:17:30,710
Perfect timing.

426
00:17:30,870 --> 00:17:32,990
I think the 20 million yuan
I invested in Sloth Gym

427
00:17:33,213 --> 00:17:34,813
should have arrived
in your bank account.

428
00:17:35,190 --> 00:17:36,390
I hope it can help you

429
00:17:36,390 --> 00:17:37,780
resolve your crisis.

430
00:17:43,191 --> 00:17:44,740
Wait. Were you the one who invested

431
00:17:45,580 --> 00:17:47,540
20 million in us?

432
00:17:49,910 --> 00:17:50,820
I told you already.

433
00:17:50,820 --> 00:17:53,300
I'm trying to make it
a win-win situation here.

434
00:17:54,260 --> 00:17:55,580
And, in addition

435
00:17:55,670 --> 00:17:56,910
to these twenty million,

436
00:17:56,910 --> 00:17:58,820
all future profits from my gym

437
00:17:58,820 --> 00:18:00,580
will also be shared with you.

438
00:18:00,820 --> 00:18:02,820
Mr. Pei, calm down for now.

439
00:18:02,820 --> 00:18:03,670
Actually,

440
00:18:03,670 --> 00:18:04,950
I came here today

441
00:18:05,500 --> 00:18:06,060
because...

442
00:18:07,470 --> 00:18:08,580
Mainly, I wanted you

443
00:18:08,580 --> 00:18:11,580
to reveal the next step

444
00:18:11,580 --> 00:18:14,910
of our investment plan.

445
00:18:14,910 --> 00:18:16,670
What should we do next?

446
00:18:17,791 --> 00:18:20,190
What other trashy investment projects
does Jinchuan have?

447
00:18:23,020 --> 00:18:24,540
The kind of project

448
00:18:24,950 --> 00:18:26,020
that, at first glance,

449
00:18:26,020 --> 00:18:27,260
could save my life,

450
00:18:27,260 --> 00:18:29,740
and simultaneously
wipe out your entire 20 million.

451
00:18:29,740 --> 00:18:31,150
You don't understand at all.

452
00:18:31,150 --> 00:18:32,340
Those projects

453
00:18:32,580 --> 00:18:33,300
are too common.

454
00:18:33,300 --> 00:18:35,150
They're not enough.

455
00:18:35,150 --> 00:18:36,499
I need that kind of godsend project,

456
00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:37,991
the kind nobody else wants to touch.

457
00:18:37,991 --> 00:18:39,480
The bigger the project, the better.

458
00:18:39,524 --> 00:18:40,880
The more investment, the better!

459
00:18:44,580 --> 00:18:47,020
I think I understand something.

460
00:18:47,910 --> 00:18:48,670
You see,

461
00:18:48,670 --> 00:18:49,260
Mr. Pei,

462
00:18:49,670 --> 00:18:51,580
you don't have
sufficient funds right now.

463
00:18:51,580 --> 00:18:52,190
That's right.

464
00:18:52,260 --> 00:18:54,060
Even so, you don't want

465
00:18:54,060 --> 00:18:56,300
a stable project that can
make us a stable profit.

466
00:18:56,300 --> 00:18:57,430
You think it's pointless.

467
00:18:57,630 --> 00:18:59,150
Now, you want

468
00:18:59,150 --> 00:19:01,740
to make a huge comeback, right?

469
00:19:06,990 --> 00:19:07,710
Fine.

470
00:19:08,100 --> 00:19:10,390
I'll share all of my investment secrets

471
00:19:10,390 --> 00:19:11,540
with you today.

472
00:19:11,540 --> 00:19:12,230
Okay.

473
00:19:13,340 --> 00:19:14,710
Buy on dips, not rallies.

474
00:19:14,710 --> 00:19:16,390
Seek losses, not gains.

475
00:19:16,670 --> 00:19:17,390
Mr. Li Jr.,

476
00:19:17,740 --> 00:19:19,910
do you know if there
are any projects in Jinchuan

477
00:19:19,910 --> 00:19:23,390
that are at the bottom

478
00:19:23,740 --> 00:19:25,260
of Jinchuan's investment chain?

479
00:19:31,740 --> 00:19:33,340
I've just thought of one.

480
00:19:36,150 --> 00:19:36,870
Mr. Pei,

481
00:19:37,390 --> 00:19:39,470
why are you drawn to this project?

482
00:19:43,430 --> 00:19:45,190
This place is pretty nice.

483
00:19:45,190 --> 00:19:47,430
This is the only building
within a ten-mile radius.

484
00:19:47,670 --> 00:19:50,300
It's not obstructed by anything.

485
00:19:50,500 --> 00:19:51,950
The developer positions this project

486
00:19:51,950 --> 00:19:54,280
as an urban landmark
that has integrated diverse functions,

487
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,870
including high-end apartments,
quality residences,

488
00:19:56,870 --> 00:19:59,190
and trendy commercial districts.

489
00:19:59,190 --> 00:20:00,100
They also intend

490
00:20:00,100 --> 00:20:02,680
to develop a gigantic city park.

491
00:20:02,902 --> 00:20:03,835
It's right downstairs.

492
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:04,630
A park?

493
00:20:05,340 --> 00:20:06,340
Where is it?

494
00:20:09,670 --> 00:20:11,190
It's right under our feet.

495
00:20:15,150 --> 00:20:16,230
At least a corner of it.

496
00:20:17,670 --> 00:20:18,990
This is something else.

497
00:20:24,910 --> 00:20:25,670
This...

498
00:20:37,190 --> 00:20:38,910
It's quite rough around the edges, huh?

499
00:20:50,630 --> 00:20:52,390
According to the materials,

500
00:20:52,910 --> 00:20:54,630
traffic here is convenient.

501
00:20:54,630 --> 00:20:55,990
There's only a dirt road.

502
00:20:56,630 --> 00:20:59,060
With elevated highways
extending in all directions.

503
00:20:59,870 --> 00:21:01,390
They're not connected to anywhere.

504
00:21:01,990 --> 00:21:03,500
With outstanding infrastructure.

505
00:21:03,710 --> 00:21:05,230
It's empty and desolate.

506
00:21:05,630 --> 00:21:06,910
And, in the future, it'll...

507
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,190
Mr. Pei, I can't make myself read it.

508
00:21:10,190 --> 00:21:11,124
Why don't you read it...

509
00:21:11,146 --> 00:21:11,670
I'm buying it.

510
00:21:14,870 --> 00:21:15,910
I'm buying

511
00:21:16,630 --> 00:21:17,820
the entire building.

512
00:21:19,670 --> 00:21:20,470
Mr. Pei.

513
00:21:21,430 --> 00:21:22,740
You are

514
00:21:24,260 --> 00:21:25,820
truly extraordinary.

515
00:21:39,390 --> 00:21:40,230
So, Pei...

516
00:21:40,340 --> 00:21:40,990
No, I mean,

517
00:21:41,230 --> 00:21:42,100
Mr. Pei.

518
00:21:42,190 --> 00:21:43,340
I thought you called me here

519
00:21:43,340 --> 00:21:45,100
to discuss Mingri Apartments.

520
00:21:45,324 --> 00:21:47,230
Why did you get yourself
another apartment?

521
00:21:48,740 --> 00:21:50,910
Mingri Apartments belonged to me.

522
00:21:50,910 --> 00:21:52,260
The one Tengda had bought

523
00:21:52,260 --> 00:21:53,780
belonged to my family.

524
00:21:53,780 --> 00:21:55,390
How could I renovate my own place

525
00:21:55,630 --> 00:21:58,230
without renovating
my family's place first?

526
00:21:58,340 --> 00:21:59,500
Mr. Pei,

527
00:21:59,500 --> 00:22:01,670
your dedication to your career
is truly admirable.

528
00:22:01,670 --> 00:22:03,390
No wonder you're the boss.

529
00:22:03,390 --> 00:22:04,910
I thought you were just a deadbeat.

530
00:22:05,910 --> 00:22:06,870
No.

531
00:22:06,870 --> 00:22:07,670
I mean,

532
00:22:07,670 --> 00:22:10,230
since you're entrusting such
a huge project to us,

533
00:22:10,390 --> 00:22:12,190
I definitely won't let you down.

534
00:22:12,502 --> 00:22:13,746
This is our design proposal for

535
00:22:13,746 --> 00:22:15,710
the interior style of
Tengda's apartments.

536
00:22:15,710 --> 00:22:16,910
Let me show you.

537
00:22:16,950 --> 00:22:19,390
This is the creamy Instagram-style look.

538
00:22:19,470 --> 00:22:21,910
This is the minimalist look.

539
00:22:21,910 --> 00:22:23,910
And, there's one look
that suits you perfectly.

540
00:22:23,910 --> 00:22:25,990
It's the Splendor of Success look.

541
00:22:25,990 --> 00:22:26,670
Of course.

542
00:22:26,670 --> 00:22:29,100
We also offer a new
Chinese-style light classical look.

543
00:22:32,630 --> 00:22:34,340
They're too traditional.

544
00:22:34,910 --> 00:22:36,390
If so, please tell me your request.

545
00:22:36,630 --> 00:22:37,780
Mr. Liang,

546
00:22:37,780 --> 00:22:39,190
is it possible

547
00:22:39,190 --> 00:22:40,630
to equip Tengda's apartments

548
00:22:40,630 --> 00:22:41,870
with more amenities

549
00:22:41,870 --> 00:22:43,591
than any other apartments on the market?

550
00:22:43,630 --> 00:22:45,413
We will provide users
with 100-inch 4K TVs,

551
00:22:45,435 --> 00:22:46,990
a complete professional audio system,

552
00:22:46,990 --> 00:22:49,710
a screen with a projector,
a variety of viewing options,

553
00:22:49,710 --> 00:22:51,670
even gaming consoles,

554
00:22:51,670 --> 00:22:54,820
an automatic clothes dryer
that can gather dust automatically,

555
00:22:54,820 --> 00:22:56,630
a cleaning robot,

556
00:22:56,630 --> 00:22:57,710
smart locks,

557
00:22:57,710 --> 00:23:00,670
and a leather sofa
with a fully-functional massage system.

558
00:23:00,670 --> 00:23:02,710
And smart home appliances as well.

559
00:23:03,613 --> 00:23:05,340
Regarding the AI human
body sensing system

560
00:23:05,630 --> 00:23:07,100
you mentioned last time,

561
00:23:07,100 --> 00:23:08,060
we'll install that too.

562
00:23:09,950 --> 00:23:10,870
Mr. Pei,

563
00:23:11,390 --> 00:23:13,390
if you include all of that,

564
00:23:13,390 --> 00:23:15,910
the cost will be quite substantial.

565
00:23:16,430 --> 00:23:18,100
For the sake of the users' experience,

566
00:23:18,430 --> 00:23:20,150
the cost shouldn't matter.

567
00:23:20,150 --> 00:23:20,910
Mr. Liang,

568
00:23:20,910 --> 00:23:22,390
just go ahead and shop with confidence.

569
00:23:22,390 --> 00:23:24,470
We won't aim for the best,

570
00:23:24,470 --> 00:23:25,990
but we'll aim for the most expensive!

571
00:23:25,990 --> 00:23:26,740
Alright.

572
00:23:26,740 --> 00:23:28,670
And, don't worry.
With our company as a guarantor,

573
00:23:28,670 --> 00:23:29,946
your wages won't be defaulted.

574
00:23:30,013 --> 00:23:30,670
Alright.

575
00:23:30,870 --> 00:23:31,500
Mr. Pei,

576
00:23:31,500 --> 00:23:32,710
if so, does that mean

577
00:23:32,710 --> 00:23:34,657
we need to step up
our hard furnishing game too?

578
00:23:35,340 --> 00:23:38,230
If both hard furnishings
and interior decor are top-notch,

579
00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:40,500
the apartments will sell like hotcakes.

580
00:23:40,910 --> 00:23:41,580
You see,

581
00:23:41,740 --> 00:23:43,740
I know the interior decor
is already extravagant.

582
00:23:43,740 --> 00:23:45,346
But when it comes
to the hard furnishings,

583
00:23:45,430 --> 00:23:47,568
we should go for a huge contrast.

584
00:23:47,613 --> 00:23:49,230
The bigger the contrast is, the better.

585
00:23:49,820 --> 00:23:50,500
I've decided.

586
00:23:51,430 --> 00:23:53,260
We won't put any wallpaper,

587
00:23:53,710 --> 00:23:54,910
any flooring,

588
00:23:55,100 --> 00:23:56,390
or paint the unit.

589
00:23:56,390 --> 00:23:58,740
Walls and floors are pure concrete.

590
00:23:58,740 --> 00:24:00,430
It's all about that raw
and unpolished look.

591
00:24:00,430 --> 00:24:02,190
We'll show them
the scene of ruins and rubble,

592
00:24:02,190 --> 00:24:03,546
with a refreshing change of pace.

593
00:24:06,670 --> 00:24:07,470
Mr. Pei,

594
00:24:07,470 --> 00:24:09,430
wouldn't this style of interior design

595
00:24:09,430 --> 00:24:10,910
be too avant-garde?

596
00:24:10,910 --> 00:24:11,910
I'm worried

597
00:24:12,060 --> 00:24:13,910
that many clients won't be
able to accept it.

598
00:24:14,470 --> 00:24:16,430
How could that be the case?

599
00:24:16,870 --> 00:24:17,670
You see, I...

600
00:24:18,820 --> 00:24:20,430
I mean, a friend of mine

601
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,630
actually moved straight
into an unfurnished house.

602
00:24:24,340 --> 00:24:26,670
And, he's still living there.

603
00:24:28,430 --> 00:24:29,950
That's what Tengda does.

604
00:24:29,950 --> 00:24:31,990
We only attract people
with the same frequency.

605
00:24:31,990 --> 00:24:33,146
We never force relationships.

606
00:24:33,191 --> 00:24:34,670
And, Mr. Liang, remember this.

607
00:24:34,670 --> 00:24:36,760
The users are strictly prohibited
from doing their own renovations.

608
00:24:36,768 --> 00:24:38,546
We must retain
the authenticity of the apartments.

609
00:24:39,190 --> 00:24:39,910
Okay.

610
00:24:40,670 --> 00:24:41,630
Understood.

611
00:24:42,630 --> 00:24:43,150
Mr. Pei,

612
00:24:43,870 --> 00:24:45,430
but in the future,

613
00:24:45,630 --> 00:24:48,230
how are we supposed
to introduce this unit to our clients?

614
00:24:48,500 --> 00:24:50,230
I mean, the huge contrasting style

615
00:24:50,230 --> 00:24:54,060
that you're going for.

616
00:24:58,670 --> 00:25:00,230
This apartment

617
00:25:00,500 --> 00:25:02,340
is drafty on all sides

618
00:25:02,670 --> 00:25:04,630
and bare.

619
00:25:06,910 --> 00:25:08,190
We'll call it

620
00:25:08,430 --> 00:25:10,710
the Four Wall Apartments.

621
00:25:14,980 --> 00:25:16,860
(Shenhua International)

622
00:25:17,100 --> 00:25:18,060
Mr. Liang,

623
00:25:18,060 --> 00:25:19,670
I'll be depending on you in the future.

624
00:25:20,150 --> 00:25:21,100
Mr. Pei!

625
00:25:24,340 --> 00:25:26,950
No worry. Just spend the money quickly
and without any hesitation.

626
00:25:26,950 --> 00:25:28,230
Tengda will back you up.

627
00:25:28,390 --> 00:25:29,500
Don't save any money for us.

628
00:25:29,500 --> 00:25:30,635
- Alright, Mr. Pei.
- Okay?

629
00:25:31,340 --> 00:25:32,340
Okay, Mr. Pei.

630
00:25:36,950 --> 00:25:37,390
Mr. Pei,

631
00:25:37,591 --> 00:25:38,580
I finally caught you.

632
00:25:38,580 --> 00:25:39,670
Are you free now?

633
00:25:44,910 --> 00:25:46,470
Mr. Pei, now that Returning to Shore

634
00:25:46,470 --> 00:25:47,670
is officially on track,

635
00:25:47,670 --> 00:25:49,060
I've made another

636
00:25:49,060 --> 00:25:50,300
preliminary game design proposal

637
00:25:50,300 --> 00:25:51,950
for an MMORPG.

638
00:25:51,950 --> 00:25:53,591
It's called
The Divine Mountains and Seas.

639
00:25:53,635 --> 00:25:54,324
Please review it.

640
00:25:54,340 --> 00:25:55,470
(Preliminary Game Design Proposal)
No rush.

641
00:25:55,470 --> 00:25:57,657
You've worked overtime
every day on Returning to Shore.

642
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:58,809
It's already been tough on you.

643
00:25:58,810 --> 00:26:00,813
Other employers
might only care about your results,

644
00:26:00,813 --> 00:26:01,710
but I only care about

645
00:26:01,870 --> 00:26:03,390
how much sleep you've gotten.

646
00:26:04,430 --> 00:26:05,470
When you're free,

647
00:26:05,470 --> 00:26:07,057
you should head to Sloth Gym more often

648
00:26:07,124 --> 00:26:07,813
and rest there.

649
00:26:07,857 --> 00:26:08,500
I saw online

650
00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:10,390
that many people with insomnia
have been cured.

651
00:26:11,546 --> 00:26:12,359
Mr. Pei, it's fine.

652
00:26:12,360 --> 00:26:14,502
I'm not suffering from insomnia.
I'm not tired either.

653
00:26:14,502 --> 00:26:16,260
I just wanted to show you my proposal.

654
00:26:16,260 --> 00:26:17,670
I see great potential in this game.

655
00:26:17,670 --> 00:26:19,950
I can feel your enthusiasm.

656
00:26:20,230 --> 00:26:21,820
However, since its founding,

657
00:26:21,820 --> 00:26:23,990
Tengda has released four games.

658
00:26:24,100 --> 00:26:25,500
And, each of them is very popular.

659
00:26:26,340 --> 00:26:28,470
It's perplexing indeed.

660
00:26:29,100 --> 00:26:30,430
I often wondered

661
00:26:30,580 --> 00:26:31,835
if we truly had the capability

662
00:26:31,835 --> 00:26:33,390
to create such hit games

663
00:26:33,870 --> 00:26:35,540
and whether or not
we deserve all of this.

664
00:26:38,670 --> 00:26:39,500
Mr. Pei,

665
00:26:39,990 --> 00:26:41,740
every time Sky Fire releases a game,

666
00:26:41,740 --> 00:26:43,710
they think they're amazing.

667
00:26:43,870 --> 00:26:45,657
But you? You reflect upon
your past actions.

668
00:26:45,657 --> 00:26:46,630
You're already better

669
00:26:46,630 --> 00:26:48,580
than 99% of our peers.

670
00:26:49,340 --> 00:26:51,780
But the development of Tengda Game

671
00:26:51,780 --> 00:26:52,950
has stalled.

672
00:26:52,950 --> 00:26:54,990
I think our priority is to...

673
00:26:54,990 --> 00:26:56,670
I think our priority is to

674
00:26:56,950 --> 00:26:58,390
think.

675
00:26:58,500 --> 00:26:59,670
We need to figure out

676
00:26:59,670 --> 00:27:01,746
the kind of games that
current users like to play.

677
00:27:01,746 --> 00:27:03,580
We need to figure out how to create

678
00:27:04,260 --> 00:27:05,390
a groundbreaking

679
00:27:05,910 --> 00:27:07,670
and innovative game.

680
00:27:12,630 --> 00:27:13,470
Mr. Pei,

681
00:27:13,857 --> 00:27:16,670
could it be that you're not interested
in developing new games at all?

682
00:27:20,740 --> 00:27:21,670
How could that be?

683
00:27:21,670 --> 00:27:22,470
Don't worry.

684
00:27:22,470 --> 00:27:24,470
I'll surely review your proposal.

685
00:27:24,500 --> 00:27:26,230
You must remember this too.

686
00:27:26,230 --> 00:27:27,020
Think more,

687
00:27:27,020 --> 00:27:27,990
feel more,

688
00:27:28,390 --> 00:27:29,430
and produce less.

689
00:27:34,060 --> 00:27:34,580
Mr. Pei!

690
00:27:34,580 --> 00:27:35,820
That's my laptop!

691
00:27:42,150 --> 00:27:44,580
Could it be
that my idea was too immature?

692
00:27:44,580 --> 00:27:46,870
Was it why Mr. Pei
was uninterested in it?

693
00:27:47,820 --> 00:27:50,150
I don't think that's possible.

694
00:27:50,150 --> 00:27:51,950
I've reviewed your proposal

695
00:27:51,950 --> 00:27:54,100
thoroughly.

696
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:56,470
As the chief playtester of Tengda Game,

697
00:27:56,470 --> 00:27:57,580
I can tell you this

698
00:27:57,580 --> 00:27:59,340
with the gaming instinct
I was born with.

699
00:27:59,470 --> 00:28:01,391
If we make The Divine Mountains and Seas

700
00:28:01,413 --> 00:28:02,480
according to your proposal,

701
00:28:02,502 --> 00:28:03,540
it'll definitely be a hit.

702
00:28:03,630 --> 00:28:04,368
I feel the same.

703
00:28:04,391 --> 00:28:06,710
I want to play the game
just from reading your proposal alone.

704
00:28:08,740 --> 00:28:10,390
Do you guys truly think so?

705
00:28:11,340 --> 00:28:14,150
But Mr. Pei told me to reflect upon it

706
00:28:14,150 --> 00:28:16,150
and be more innovative.

707
00:28:16,500 --> 00:28:18,302
That's because
he didn't read your proposal.

708
00:28:18,302 --> 00:28:20,213
How else can your proposal
be more innovative?

709
00:28:20,235 --> 00:28:21,340
What's there to reflect upon?

710
00:28:21,340 --> 00:28:22,740
He'll know that this game

711
00:28:22,740 --> 00:28:24,950
is the kind
that he wants to develop after reading

712
00:28:25,630 --> 00:28:26,990
your proposal.

713
00:28:29,670 --> 00:28:31,390
Thanks, Bao, Lv.

714
00:28:32,230 --> 00:28:33,990
I almost lost all confidence just now.

715
00:28:33,990 --> 00:28:35,324
But after hearing that from you two,

716
00:28:35,324 --> 00:28:36,260
I feel pretty touched.

717
00:28:37,124 --> 00:28:38,500
Why don't we work on it together?

718
00:28:38,870 --> 00:28:41,150
With Bao's meticulousness

719
00:28:41,150 --> 00:28:42,910
and Lv's technical support,

720
00:28:42,910 --> 00:28:44,430
we'll definitely hit the mark.

721
00:28:44,430 --> 00:28:46,100
It'll definitely shut Mr. Pei up.

722
00:28:46,390 --> 00:28:47,390
Sure.

723
00:28:47,500 --> 00:28:49,260
But, wait, I'm not working overtime.

724
00:28:49,260 --> 00:28:51,260
Mr. Pei caught me
when I worked overtime last time.

725
00:28:51,260 --> 00:28:52,670
If he catches me again,

726
00:28:52,670 --> 00:28:54,260
I'll be in huge trouble.

727
00:28:54,260 --> 00:28:56,470
I have to be useless

728
00:28:56,470 --> 00:28:58,260
so that people won't be able to use me.

729
00:28:58,260 --> 00:29:00,050
I know that.
I won't tell you to work overtime.

730
00:29:00,050 --> 00:29:01,060
I just want to know if you...

731
00:29:01,060 --> 00:29:01,820
No.

732
00:29:13,260 --> 00:29:14,260
Bao,

733
00:29:15,100 --> 00:29:16,870
without the support of

734
00:29:16,870 --> 00:29:18,910
a world-class

735
00:29:18,910 --> 00:29:20,470
and god-tier

736
00:29:20,470 --> 00:29:21,710
back-end developer like Lv,

737
00:29:21,710 --> 00:29:23,230
we should be mentally prepared.

738
00:29:23,230 --> 00:29:26,100
It'll take us at least
60 years to complete the game.

739
00:29:26,100 --> 00:29:27,100
Yeah.

740
00:29:27,230 --> 00:29:28,230
You see,

741
00:29:28,230 --> 00:29:31,390
without the help of a prodigy like Lv,

742
00:29:31,710 --> 00:29:33,540
there's no way
The Divine Mountains and Seas

743
00:29:33,540 --> 00:29:35,670
can be as perfect as we imagined.

744
00:29:35,670 --> 00:29:36,910
Yeah.

745
00:29:36,910 --> 00:29:38,100
What a shame.

746
00:29:41,500 --> 00:29:42,190
Wait.

747
00:29:44,670 --> 00:29:45,870
I'm quite interested

748
00:29:46,813 --> 00:29:48,300
in The Divine Mountains and Seas.

749
00:29:58,740 --> 00:29:59,870
I can help you guys

750
00:29:59,870 --> 00:30:02,150
when I slack off during work hours.

751
00:30:04,630 --> 00:30:05,740
You're welcome.

752
00:30:06,910 --> 00:30:07,580
Cheers.

753
00:30:07,740 --> 00:30:08,470
Cheers.

754
00:30:14,820 --> 00:30:18,670
Four Wall Apartments is my last bet.

755
00:30:18,740 --> 00:30:20,390
I absolutely cannot let

756
00:30:20,390 --> 00:30:23,057
the previous tragedy of
back-to-back betrayals happen again.

757
00:30:24,990 --> 00:30:26,260
All those betrayers

758
00:30:26,260 --> 00:30:27,950
could always find my weaknesses

759
00:30:27,950 --> 00:30:29,230
and target them.

760
00:30:31,670 --> 00:30:32,260
No.

761
00:30:33,710 --> 00:30:36,260
I have to form a department
and keep them in check.

762
00:30:51,470 --> 00:30:52,190
Pei...

763
00:31:02,390 --> 00:31:03,100
Mr. Pei,

764
00:31:03,740 --> 00:31:04,820
what's going on here?

765
00:31:05,780 --> 00:31:07,540
You actually recognized me?

766
00:31:08,670 --> 00:31:09,990
Put this on and turn around.

767
00:31:10,950 --> 00:31:11,820
Turn around.

768
00:31:12,124 --> 00:31:14,060
This concerns Tengda's
confidential information.

769
00:31:14,060 --> 00:31:15,190
Do not show it to anyone.

770
00:31:15,780 --> 00:31:16,670
Tang,

771
00:31:17,390 --> 00:31:19,340
it must've been tough on you

772
00:31:19,391 --> 00:31:20,680
after joining DreamForge Capital.

773
00:31:20,950 --> 00:31:22,190
I observed you in secret.

774
00:31:22,540 --> 00:31:24,820
I found out
that although you don't like to speak,

775
00:31:24,820 --> 00:31:26,100
and have a low sense of presence,

776
00:31:26,150 --> 00:31:28,910
you're very trustworthy.

777
00:31:29,910 --> 00:31:31,430
After giving it much consideration,

778
00:31:32,430 --> 00:31:34,820
I've decided to entrust you
with an important mission.

779
00:31:35,580 --> 00:31:36,300
Are you

780
00:31:36,670 --> 00:31:37,950
ready?

781
00:31:40,710 --> 00:31:41,910
The instructions

782
00:31:42,100 --> 00:31:43,060
are in here.

783
00:31:58,660 --> 00:32:01,700
(Four Wall Apartments)

784
00:32:03,910 --> 00:32:05,340
Mr. Pei, please come in.

785
00:32:11,260 --> 00:32:13,300
The Four Wall Apartments

786
00:32:13,300 --> 00:32:14,835
has reached the handover standards.

787
00:32:14,857 --> 00:32:15,870
The wall and flooring

788
00:32:16,060 --> 00:32:17,260
are all concrete.

789
00:32:17,390 --> 00:32:18,740
The furniture and appliances

790
00:32:18,740 --> 00:32:19,820
are top-of-the-line.

791
00:32:19,820 --> 00:32:21,820
It's also equipped with
whole-home smart control.

792
00:32:21,820 --> 00:32:23,630
The users will definitely experience

793
00:32:23,990 --> 00:32:25,020
a stark contrast.

794
00:32:36,580 --> 00:32:37,260
Mr. Pei,

795
00:32:37,470 --> 00:32:38,670
the whole-home smart control

796
00:32:38,670 --> 00:32:40,150
can be accessed with AI voice control.

797
00:32:40,150 --> 00:32:42,060
As per your design,

798
00:32:42,060 --> 00:32:44,324
we've set up commands
for users to change the scene at will.

799
00:32:44,324 --> 00:32:45,340
You may give it a try.

800
00:32:46,390 --> 00:32:49,390
Golden splendor!

801
00:32:54,870 --> 00:32:55,910
Mr. Pei,

802
00:32:56,300 --> 00:32:57,340
you wanted this, right?

803
00:32:57,950 --> 00:32:59,100
Correct!

804
00:32:59,300 --> 00:33:00,230
Mr. Liang,

805
00:33:00,340 --> 00:33:01,430
your design

806
00:33:01,430 --> 00:33:02,710
matches my requirement perfectly.

807
00:33:02,820 --> 00:33:03,630
Good job.

808
00:33:06,870 --> 00:33:07,710
Cui,

809
00:33:08,190 --> 00:33:10,670
I'll leave the rest to you.

810
00:33:12,150 --> 00:33:12,820
Mr. Pei,

811
00:33:14,260 --> 00:33:15,540
thank you for your trust.

812
00:33:15,540 --> 00:33:16,630
Thanks to you,

813
00:33:16,630 --> 00:33:18,540
I've been promoted to the regional GM.

814
00:33:18,540 --> 00:33:19,580
It feels so surreal.

815
00:33:21,260 --> 00:33:22,060
What about this?

816
00:33:22,060 --> 00:33:23,470
I'll double-check it with you.

817
00:33:23,470 --> 00:33:24,820
I want to confirm

818
00:33:24,820 --> 00:33:25,910
if you have any requests

819
00:33:26,060 --> 00:33:27,910
concerning the sales
and rental of these units.

820
00:33:27,910 --> 00:33:29,190
For example, the price and so on.

821
00:33:29,190 --> 00:33:30,500
The Four Wall Apartments

822
00:33:30,613 --> 00:33:32,060
is only meant for rent, not for sale.

823
00:33:33,568 --> 00:33:34,710
Only meant for rent?

824
00:33:35,060 --> 00:33:36,580
Only meant for rent, not for sale?

825
00:33:36,910 --> 00:33:37,500
That's right.

826
00:33:37,710 --> 00:33:39,630
To ensure the users' needs are met,

827
00:33:39,710 --> 00:33:41,168
no subletting or short-term rentals

828
00:33:41,213 --> 00:33:42,430
are allowed here.

829
00:33:42,820 --> 00:33:43,950
We'll provide users

830
00:33:43,950 --> 00:33:45,990
with 24-hour housekeeping

831
00:33:45,990 --> 00:33:46,910
and butler services.

832
00:33:46,910 --> 00:33:48,102
Look at all these appliances.

833
00:33:48,102 --> 00:33:49,910
There will be frequent updates
to their software.

834
00:33:49,910 --> 00:33:51,820
We'll update them on a regular basis.

835
00:33:51,820 --> 00:33:53,835
They're available for lease
starting at ten years,

836
00:33:53,857 --> 00:33:55,430
with payment required, in full upfront.

837
00:33:55,430 --> 00:33:57,060
In full upfront?

838
00:33:59,100 --> 00:33:59,670
If so,

839
00:33:59,670 --> 00:34:00,910
Mr. Pei,

840
00:34:00,910 --> 00:34:02,430
don't you think

841
00:34:02,580 --> 00:34:04,580
the price is too high?

842
00:34:05,150 --> 00:34:05,470
You see,

843
00:34:05,470 --> 00:34:06,580
for example,

844
00:34:06,580 --> 00:34:09,060
if you wish to take
the high-end approach,

845
00:34:09,790 --> 00:34:12,620
Jinchuan has plenty of wealthy people.

846
00:34:12,620 --> 00:34:14,140
They have plenty of other choices.

847
00:34:14,140 --> 00:34:15,430
The thing is,

848
00:34:15,430 --> 00:34:17,724
you're not allowing the clients
to do their own renovations.

849
00:34:17,724 --> 00:34:19,540
They have no reason

850
00:34:20,540 --> 00:34:21,470
to choose this unit.

851
00:34:22,220 --> 00:34:23,220
Mr. Liang,

852
00:34:23,500 --> 00:34:24,580
tell Cui

853
00:34:24,990 --> 00:34:27,020
about the concept of our apartment.

854
00:34:28,700 --> 00:34:31,470
With affinity,
even walls cannot keep us apart.

855
00:34:31,470 --> 00:34:33,990
Without it, even face-to-face, we pass.

856
00:34:34,060 --> 00:34:34,990
That's right.

857
00:34:35,124 --> 00:34:36,502
Therefore, our apartments

858
00:34:36,524 --> 00:34:38,500
must strictly adhere
to environmental standards.

859
00:34:38,500 --> 00:34:40,270
You see, renovation was just finished

860
00:34:40,500 --> 00:34:41,580
not long ago.

861
00:34:41,580 --> 00:34:44,060
It must have high levels
of formaldehyde.

862
00:34:44,060 --> 00:34:46,020
Therefore, we should
leave it for the time being

863
00:34:46,020 --> 00:34:47,180
and let it air.

864
00:34:47,580 --> 00:34:48,470
Mr. Pei,

865
00:34:48,502 --> 00:34:50,080
we didn't do any renovations at all.

866
00:34:50,168 --> 00:34:52,470
The furniture we used was all
made from eco-friendly materials.

867
00:34:52,470 --> 00:34:53,880
We've been airing them for some time.

868
00:34:53,902 --> 00:34:54,740
As per your request,

869
00:34:54,740 --> 00:34:56,940
we hired professional help to
remove the formaldehyde smell.

870
00:34:56,940 --> 00:34:57,480
Three times!

871
00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:58,899
It's way lower than normal standards.

872
00:34:58,900 --> 00:35:00,020
No need to air them any longer.

873
00:35:00,020 --> 00:35:00,990
Even so, that won't do.

874
00:35:01,180 --> 00:35:03,700
We should follow maternal
and infant safety standards.

875
00:35:04,060 --> 00:35:05,660
For the sake of our children,

876
00:35:05,660 --> 00:35:08,540
we have to let it air!

Mr. Pei told you to join
the Gaming Division?

888
00:35:59,350 --> 00:36:00,060
That's right.

889
00:36:00,140 --> 00:36:01,140
Mr. Pei said

890
00:36:01,140 --> 00:36:02,140
my main mission

891
00:36:02,140 --> 00:36:04,180
is to do my internship
in all departments of Tengda.

892

Do you guys need any help?

893
00:36:07,390 --> 00:36:08,020
Tang,

894
00:36:08,020 --> 00:36:09,910
you're not in the same field as me.

895
00:36:09,910 --> 00:36:12,870
You don't know how to code either.
I don't need your help.

896

Lv,

897
00:36:14,990 --> 00:36:16,540
I have to criticize you for that.

898
00:36:16,660 --> 00:36:18,580
Tang is a management trainee.

899
00:36:18,580 --> 00:36:19,700
She's here to learn.

900
00:36:19,700 --> 00:36:20,580
You know?

901
00:36:20,580 --> 00:36:22,350
You should be nicer to her.

902
00:36:22,350 --> 00:36:24,660
Tang, it's fine that you don't know
how to code.

903
00:36:24,660 --> 00:36:26,124
You know how to play games, right?

904
00:36:26,124 --> 00:36:28,180
Come and test
the games with us for now,

905
00:36:28,180 --> 00:36:28,750
okay?

906
00:36:28,870 --> 00:36:31,020
Sure. Thanks, Bao.

907
00:36:31,620 --> 00:36:32,540
It's like this.

908
00:36:32,540 --> 00:36:35,270
The system requirements
for a playtester are quite demanding.

909
00:36:35,580 --> 00:36:37,580
This is the new
top-of-the-line PC I purchased.

910
00:36:37,830 --> 00:36:39,140
You should try it.

00:36:39,700 --> 00:36:40,580
Okay.

912
00:36:47,060 --> 00:36:48,870
The Gaming Division is truly different.

913
00:36:49,060 --> 00:36:51,620
Even the keyboard
and screen can be folded, huh?

914
00:36:57,060 --> 00:36:58,830
Who said it could be folded?

915
00:37:01,180 --> 00:37:01,830
Bao,

00:37:02,700 --> 00:37:04,220
why don't we do some playtesting?

917
00:37:13,580 --> 00:37:14,310
Son,

918
00:37:14,910 --> 00:37:16,350
I think I should pick you up.

919
00:37:21,180 --> 00:37:21,660
This...

920
00:37:22,140 --> 00:37:24,310
Why don't we try another move?

921
00:37:25,990 --> 00:37:27,870
Try to stretch your waist slowly,

922
00:37:27,870 --> 00:37:29,580
especially you guys
who always sit too much.

923
00:37:34,310 --> 00:37:35,020
I can't

924
00:37:35,470 --> 00:37:36,870
move my waist.

925
00:37:41,580 --> 00:37:42,500
Mr. Ma.

926
00:37:46,580 --> 00:37:47,500
Mr. Ma.

927
00:37:48,470 --> 00:37:49,580
I can see

928
00:37:50,220 --> 00:37:51,540
that your eyes are wet.

929
00:37:54,310 --> 00:37:55,620
Your lips are dry too.

930
00:37:55,750 --> 00:37:56,470
Is that so?

931
00:37:57,060 --> 00:37:58,350
I think that's a sign

932
00:37:58,350 --> 00:38:00,580
of kidney damage.

933
00:38:00,580 --> 00:38:01,220
What?

934
00:38:01,430 --> 00:38:02,390
Kidney damage?

935
00:38:05,060 --> 00:38:06,180
But it's fine.

936
00:38:06,310 --> 00:38:07,180
Experts said

937
00:38:07,180 --> 00:38:08,346
that it would gradually recover

938
00:38:08,368 --> 00:38:10,302
as long as you drink water
every half an hour.

939
00:38:10,470 --> 00:38:11,580
I'll remind you.

940
00:38:13,580 --> 00:38:15,220
Mr. Ma, it's time.

941
00:38:15,220 --> 00:38:15,990
Time to drink.

942
00:38:21,580 --> 00:38:22,540
That's about it.

943
00:38:31,140 --> 00:38:31,990
Mr. Ma,

944
00:38:32,140 --> 00:38:33,060
stop playing.

945
00:38:39,500 --> 00:38:40,430
Mr. Ma,

946
00:38:40,430 --> 00:38:41,500
time to drink.

947
00:38:41,500 --> 00:38:42,500
I'll drink it myself.

948
00:39:03,100 --> 00:39:03,870
Huang,

949
00:39:03,870 --> 00:39:06,140
do you need any help

950
00:39:06,140 --> 00:39:07,620
with Zhongdian Web Fiction?

951
00:39:13,857 --> 00:39:15,470
The works published by these authors

952
00:39:15,470 --> 00:39:16,750
aren't very popular.

953
00:39:16,750 --> 00:39:18,140
They feel dejected.

954
00:39:18,470 --> 00:39:19,470
Help me encourage them

955
00:39:19,470 --> 00:39:20,950
and cheer them up. Thanks.

956
00:39:24,870 --> 00:39:25,830
Encourage them, huh?

957
00:39:45,870 --> 00:39:47,540
Are you working? How's it going?

958
00:39:49,657 --> 00:39:51,990
I've been joining Zhongdian Web Fiction
for quite some time,

959
00:39:51,990 --> 00:39:54,430
but my posts barely get any views,
usually just single digits.

960
00:39:54,700 --> 00:39:56,060
I feel like giving up.

961
00:39:59,750 --> 00:40:01,020
Just give up, then.

962
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:03,700
You've been writing for some time,

963
00:40:04,060 --> 00:40:05,430
and they barely get any views.

964
00:40:05,430 --> 00:40:06,680
And, you're upset about it too.

965
00:40:06,700 --> 00:40:09,470
Say, could it be that this job
isn't meant for you?

966
00:40:14,100 --> 00:40:15,950
But I write for a living.

967
00:40:15,950 --> 00:40:16,990
What else can I do?

968
00:40:19,180 --> 00:40:20,990
You could start doing self-media.

969
00:40:21,220 --> 00:40:22,910
Since you like to write stuff,

970
00:40:23,060 --> 00:40:24,180
you can write scripts,

971
00:40:24,180 --> 00:40:25,220
or even make vlogs.

972
00:40:25,220 --> 00:40:27,390
I think that'll prove to be
a better prospect for you.

973
00:40:27,830 --> 00:40:29,220
If you get famous,

974
00:40:29,220 --> 00:40:30,540
you'll have your own IP.

975
00:40:42,700 --> 00:40:43,660
Vlog?

976
00:40:52,500 --> 00:40:53,140
Mr. Pei,

977
00:40:53,910 --> 00:40:56,220
should I continue with
the management trainee program?

978
00:40:56,830 --> 00:40:58,750
I've been following your instructions,

979
00:40:59,140 --> 00:41:01,500
but I feel like
something's off about everyone.

980
00:41:01,500 --> 00:41:03,310
They're all trying to avoid me.

981
00:41:03,750 --> 00:41:04,620
What should I do?

982
00:41:04,750 --> 00:41:05,430
Tang,

983
00:41:05,620 --> 00:41:07,020
it's been tough on you.

984
00:41:07,020 --> 00:41:07,950
You may cease

985
00:41:07,950 --> 00:41:09,830
your operation for now.

986
00:41:09,830 --> 00:41:11,270
And, tell everyone

987
00:41:11,270 --> 00:41:13,750
that the Four Wall Apartments
is ready for occupancy.

988
00:41:15,020 --> 00:41:16,020

00:41:21,540 --> 00:41:23,580
I wonder which genius came up with that.

991
00:41:24,020 --> 00:41:25,430
Now, I can prevent any backstabbing,

992
00:41:25,435 --> 00:41:26,540
and I'll be compensated, too.

993
00:41:31,790 --> 00:41:33,750
I have a 100-inch TV now.

994
00:41:34,540 --> 00:41:36,660
I also own a house with
two rooms and one living room.

995
00:41:37,310 --> 00:41:39,950
The Four Wall Apartments
have lost so much money.
