=Hello Mr. Gu=

=Episode 28=

(The person I can never let go.)

So they let you adapt

Sweet Pea's work?

Sweet Pea's works are very popular recently.

They're a huge publishing company after all.

The cover is designed quite well.

Yes.

Congratulations, Ms. Zhou,

for advancing in your career.

Cheers.

Thank you.

Why don't we celebrate it

at another place later?

Sounds good.

It's all right.

I have to rush for my drawing.

Isn't it a good thing to have a new job?

Why are you pulling a long face?

I'm thinking how to do the job well.

I'm not pulling a long face.

Anyway, your work hasn't started yet.

You, I

and Xia

will have a feast later.

Being stuck at home

is no good for you.

Let's go.

I...

You aren't allowed to turn it down.

After she goes home and finishes the draft,

I'll ask my friend to pick her up.

It's decided.

Let's go.

Xia,

try this.

How does it taste?

It's tasty.

Eat it, Xuan.

Qingqing.

Guan Yue.

Sorry for keeping you waiting.

It doesn't matter.

My car is at the entrance.

Let's go.

Sure.

How have you been recently?

Not bad.

I heard you've been drawing comic recently.

Isn't drawing comic by yourself

very dull?

Not really.

Doing what I like to do

isn't that boring.

Actually, I used to like comic a lot, too.

Did you?

Have a seat.

Thank you.

How do you know

macchiato is my favorite?

It's simple.

Your brother mentioned you a lot in the past few years.

Although we haven't met for many times,

it feels as if we've known each other for a long time.

He never says anything good about me.

Don't listen to him.

However, he's right about one thing.

What is it?

You're beautiful.

Did you learn sweet-talking from my brother?

I sincerely think you're beautiful.

I thought so

the first time I saw you in high school.

Guan Yue, I'm flattered.

Why aren't my brother and Susu here yet?

I'll give them a call.

Hello,

where are you two now?

I forgot to tell you.

The renovation workers are coming over for the finishing touch today.

I have to sort out the payment.

I might not be able to go.

What about Susu?

She's the lady boss.

So she has to accompany me.

Zhou Zixuan, did you trick me?

Why would I trick you?

It's true that I can't go.

Have fun.

Oh right,

isn't Guan Yue

more handsome than he used to be?

Zhou Zixuan,

you've set me up for a blind date.

Don't say that.

Guan Yue is my buddy for over a decade.

He's definitely a good person.

He's from a rich family and he is hardworking.

He even graduated from a top university.

Please seize this opportunity.

Thank your whole family!

You are welcome.

Don't thank yourself.

I'm content as long as you cherish him.

I'm hanging up.

I'm going to the washroom.

Sure.

Guan Yue.

Who are you?

We met at a meal, remember?

Hi.

Long time no see.

I heard you're working with a startup recently.

What kind of business is it?

New energy.

Electric vehicles?

No.

Offshore wind power.

Is the girl

your girlfriend?

Not yet,

but she's a great girl.

I hope to date her.

How long have you known each other?

His brother and I are longtime friends.

Come to think of it,

we've known each other for almost a decade.

So,

you've liked her for a long time?

She's beautiful

and funny.

If it wasn't for her brother,

I would've courted her long ago.

Are your feelings towards her

serious?

Of course.

I've given it some thought.

If we date,

I'll treat her well.

I have it all planned.

After we start dating,

she can do what she likes,

and

I'll be the breadwinner.

If she wants a child,

we'll have one.

During festivities,

our family

will go on a holiday in a small nation.

I might've said too much,

because I'm a little excited to have met her.

Treat her well.

What took you so long?

Did Zhou Zixuan say something to you?

No.

I met a strange man

in the washroom just now.

Who is he?

Could it be a con artist?

Did he try to sell anything to you?

No,

but he kept asking me about you.

He even told me to take good care of you.

Where is he?

He just left.

(Agreement Termination)

Hello.

Hello, Ms. Chen.

I'm calling to check with you.

Are you sure those shares

are valid?

I've already confirmed it.

The 5% shares

indeed exist.

Mr. Gu Licheng transferred it to your father before he passed away.

Perhaps he didn't get to inform his family

since he passed away suddenly.

Is it possible for me to transfer my shares

to Gu Nanzhou?

He probably needs it now.

Mr. Zhou didn't have a will when he passed away.

So, you and your brother have the equal right of inheritance.

After you two discuss how to distribute it,

you can handle your shares as you like.

Okay.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Hi, here is your parcel.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

(Sender Zhou Jianqing)

(Yang, the editor)

Hello.

Mr. Yang,

hello.

What did you say?

My Paradise Street 19

is chosen

to be made into an animation?

All right.

Of course I'm available.

Okay, see you later.

Coming!

Coming.

Why are you here?

I'm here on your sister-in-law's order

to bring something to you.

Are these the shares you mentioned?

It's my personal belonging.

Don't touch it.

You haven't thrown away Gu Nanzhou's stuff yet?

I will.

I am about to throw it away.

Come on.

Let me ask you.

What got into you that day?

Why did you disappear

without saying a word?

When was that?

Don't play fool with me.

It's the day you went on a date with Guan Yue.

You kept him waiting for so long

in the restaurant.

So you don't even remember anything about it?

I happened to have an urgent matter that day.

After that,

I forgot about it.

Young lady,

you never learn.

How about this?

Treat Guan Yue to a meal this weekend

as an apology to him.

Treat him to a meal?

No way.

I got it.

You haven't moved on from Gu Nanzhou, right?

Fine.

If you can't bear to throw the stuff away,

I'll do it.

What are you doing?

Give it back to me.

Let go of it!

Then, promise me

that you will go on a date with Guan Yue.

Okay.

Let go of it.

Listen to me.

Out with the old, in with the new.

I heard you.

Regarding the shares,

just do as the lawyer says.

I have urgent matters later.

Just leave.

Bye.

Zhou Jianqing.

Go.

Bye.

Bye.

Zhou Jianqing!

Zhou Jianqing!

(Future Animation)

This way.

Okay.

Ms. Zhou,

take a rest here first.

I think Xingyun is not bad.

I heard the visuals of Lake Xingling

were impressive.

The production level was quite good.

However, Xingyun

was sued not long ago.

I was told many investors

withdrew their investment.

True.

They are too busy dealing with their issues now,

let alone producing good works.

Excuse me.

May I know

what exactly happened to Xingyun?

They say it's a copyright issue.

It seems their boss sold his own properties

to pay for compensation.

That's right.

Also, a lot of the investors

withdrew their investment because of this.

When did this happen?

Not long ago.

The way I see it,

Xingyun might not make it this time.

(A lawsuit?)

(So, all along,)

(he's been shouldering it alone.)

(I chose to leave him)

(at his most difficult moment.)

About the adaptation of Paradise Street 19,

Ms. Zhou Jianqing, do you, the author,

have any comment or request?

First of all,

I would like to thank all of you

for your recognition of my work.

Secondly, for the adaptation,

I hope to find

a production team which matches my creative concept.

If it's possible,

I suggest cooperating with Xingyun.

Ms. Zhou,

you might not be aware.

Xingyun Animation is involved in a lawsuit recently.

I'm afraid this...

I believe in Xingyun.

I used to work there.

However, I didn't choose it

because of its past performance

or its current situation.

It's because of their boss'

perseverance in original works.

Sure.

We trust your judgment.

Next,

we'll try to liaise with Xingyun as soon as possible.

Come on,

everyone, gather round.

Come on.

Let me introduce to you.

This is Zhang Yin.

He will be

our assistant for background design.

Let's welcome Zhang Yin.

Welcome.

Thank you, everyone.

Pleased to meet you.

Let's work hard together.

How could you make such a mistake?

The character ratio isn't right.

Here you go.

All right, I understand.

Jiajia.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Gu.

Mr. Gu, please sign this.

Thank you.

Mr. Gu,

please sign this.

Sure.

Thank you, Mr. Gu.

Mr. Gu,

here's your coffee.

(Paradise Street 19 Proposal)

What is it?

Mr. Gu,

here is what I think.

This

is Qingqing's work after all.

If she can come to our company,

it might help to improve

our work efficiency.

(Paradise Street 19 Proposal)

We just happened to have accepted

Future Animation's invitation to produce an animation.

This has nothing to do

with Zhou Jianqing.

Nothing to do with her?

How can that be?

It's Qingqing's fruits of labour.

If we can invite her here,

we'll be able to understand

the author's thoughts and requests better.

Besides, your relationship...

We already broke up.

Now

she's just the creator

of one of the works we accepted.

We have no right

to trouble the creator.

(If we can invite her here,)

(does it mean)

(I'll get to meet her again?)

Qingqing,

you're really here!

I'm the creator,

as well as the consultant for Xingyun's production team.

Am I brilliant?

Great.

With you around,

I am even more motivated to work.

Stop chit-chatting.

The meeting will start soon.

Welcome, Ms. Zhou.

♪The tears secretly cooperate♪

(How to get back together with your ex.)

(Admit the mistakes. Persevere.)

(Correct your mistake. Solve the problem. Make her feel secure.)

How to get back together with your ex?

How many times have I told you?

Knock on the door before you enter.

I'm bringing you coffee.

I'm not drinking it.

If you have time to search online,

you might as well talk to her,

ask her out for dinner

or go outside.

How good would it be to create a chance encounter?

Don't say I never remind you.

She and her junior

are very close recently.

It seems your workload isn't saturated enough.

You have the time to gossip.

Mr. Gu,

I'll get back to work now.

Qingqing,

let's attend Nancheng Anime Convention

two days later.

I heard there're many good works.

Sure.

Oh, right.

Recently, I found

a really good bullfrog restaurant.

Let's have some after work later.

I've also been craving for bullfrog lately.

Mr. Gu.

Zhang Yin,

try this.

It's super soft and sweet.

What are you two talking about?

Just now, we're saying

tonight, we'd...

Zhang Yin,

try this butter-flavored potato chips.

Potato chips of this brand are very tasty.

The meeting will be held in the meeting room in 20 minutes.

You two should get ready.

Why is there suddenly a meeting?

What do you think

we should do?

When it comes to why a couple breaks up,

other than a misunderstanding and pressure from external parties,

there must be problems between the two of you.

We had no problem.

Why did you break up?

Rather than thinking about how to get back with her,

you might as well think about

why exactly you broke up.

Of course,

most importantly,

you have to make her feel

your feelings towards her,

as well as

the changes you went through during this period.

What do you mean by the changes?

It's not about how you've changed.

Instead, you have to make her feel

that you've changed.

If she thinks you're still the same,

then she'll definitely think that,

should you two get back together,

it'll still be the same outcome.

If she feels insecure,

she'll definitely choose not to get back together with you.

Ask her out for me.

Just say it's about work.

Mr. Gu,

in order to show your sincerity,

it's better for you to ask her out yourself.

Mr. Gu.

Let's have burger after work later.

Sure.

Don't drink coffee in the next few days.

It's not good for your health.

Drink the red date tea I made for you.

Thank you.

Don't drink coffee during meeting.

This character

is an important supporting character.

However, the character has too many scenes in the comic.

As a result, in the anime,

it might affect the pace of the main storyline

and make it feel unnatural.

So, I suggest everyone

to go through all the storyline of this character again,

remove one third of it

and keep the remaining effective storyline.

Wait.

I'm against this.

Although he's a supporting character,

he's the cause of the incident.

You can also say

he's one of the main roles other than the protagonist.

That's right.

I think so, too.

He appears too often.

Moreover, it doesn't tally

with the protagonist's timeline.

Therefore, I think the viewers might

feel he's stealing the protagonist's limelight.

All these side stories

are necessary.

The viewers will definitely understand

the relationship very quickly.

Ms. Zhou, you might not have

much experience in making an animation.

If too much ambiguous information is given in the preliminary stage,

viewers might lose patience to keep watching.

If we remove it as you say,

the preliminary plot of the animation

will be very flimsy.

The difference between an animation and a comic is that

animation focuses more on the continuity

and the pace.

Sacrificing the overall sense of depth

and theatrical feel

will not bring any good.

Viewers are used

to fast-paced works.

This kind of adjustment

allows viewers to follow the storyline better.

Once you remove part of the storyline,

the advancing will be implausible.

No.

I'm the creator.

Each word the character says,

each action

or even the expression

is created for a reason.

Do you think

I don't know this?

I'm sorry.

(Aunt Gu)

Hello, aunt.

Hello, Xiaochuan.

How are things going on between

Xiaozhou and Qingqing recently?

Those two?

Not so good.

Forget it.

It seems

I'll have to take action.

Mr. Gu,

I need to verify

something with you.

Go ahead.

Well,

since you and Zhou Jianqing broke up,

you won't object to it

if I court her, right?

I won't interfere

in my employees' relationships.

Zhou Jianqing is not my employee.

I don't have a say in her affairs.

Yes.

Zhang Yin,

no need to work overtime today.

Seriously?

Oh, right.

This is our company's new regulations.

Take a good look at it,

especially the sixth item.

(System)

What?

In order to make employees

focus on work during office hours,

all forms of office relationship are prohibited.

Employees also cannot develop any relationship

that's beyond professional with work partners.

This is too harsh.
