[Master Of My Own]

[Episode 12]

We're here.

I enjoyed it today.

I enjoyed it, too.

Thank you, Senior.

Rest early.

I'll go up first, then.

All right.

Am I invisible?

Am I like the thin air to you?

No, you're not air.

You're more like ammonia gas.

What do you want?

I have something to tell you.

Say it then.

Well…

How long is your contract with Shi Ying?

A year? Two years?

Every single year.

Nonsense.

I think it's a year at most.

It's been half a year now,

meaning there are only a few months left.

If I ask you to resign now,

it's like I'm breaking up the partnership
with Shi Ying.

So this is what you'll do.

After your contract expires,

don't extend it with her.

When you come back to my company,

I won't force you

to be my secretary.

You can focus on investment fully.

Okay, so be it.

Who do you think you are?

Why are you acting
as if you are blessing me,

thinking that I'll go back
just because you said so?

If you want me to work as an investor,

I should be the investor.

When you want to mock me, you'll mock me.

I say this one last time.

I'm not going back.

Because I don't want to see you at all.

No, Ning Meng…

Also,

I'm not your toy to ease your boredom.

Please respect me.

In the future, if it's not work-related,

don't call me.

Wait…

Ning Meng.

You are really something.

Were you apologizing or arguing?

No…

Why did you bring the trash back?

Can't you throw it away?

Didn't she want to invest?

I'm letting her do that.

Why is she still so angry?

I told you many times

that she just wants respect.

You can't just push
whatever you think is good

into her hands.

Do you know what respect is?

Respect includes
respecting her personality,

her will and her choice.

Look at you.

You were there to apologize,

not to send her an offer.

I'm sorry.

Can you say that?

Did you say it before?

Then this is your first time.

Cherish it. Go for it.

Don't tell me you're afraid to say it.

What could I be afraid of?

It's too late now.

I'll make it clear tomorrow.

Going to work?

Where else?

Excuse me.

Wait a minute.

Well,

last night,

I gave it some careful consideration.

How about you? Did you consider it?

I think I've made that clear.

Please excuse me.

I came here early in the morning,

I'm being very sincere.

What is this attitude of yours?

Wait.

Why are you running?

Can you give me a clear answer?

Okay.

Mr. Lu, are you

begging me to rejoin Joint Capital?

It is not begging. It is allowing.

Goodbye.

Okay, I'm begging, all right?

I mean,

this counts as begging.

I respect your choice.

Just stay

wherever you think is best for you.

I won't stop you.

Is this an apology?

What apology? I'm making peace.

Making peace, right?

Okay, I accept it.

Okay then.

We will put this behind us completely.

Hold on.

What's your relationship

with Su Weiran?

Are you some cop on the Pacific Ocean?

What do you mean?

You care too much.

I'm asking if

the both of you

have joint investments.

Do you know what kind of person he is?

We knew each other at university.

I don't need you to tell me

what kind of person he is.

With your insight,

you can't tell

if he's reliable or not.

I have endured three years with you.

With these three years of experience,

no matter how unreliable others are,

they are more reliable than you.

What do you mean, Ning Meng?

What did you say?

Ning Meng, make it clear to me.

Can you stop following me?

You're like a perverted stalker,

you know?

Don't say nonsense.

Who is following you?

Can't I take the subway?

You're someone who complains

the seat on a Maybach is too hard.

Taking the subway?

Mr. Lu, stop making things hard
for us both.

Who is the one making things hard here?

What does it mean
to tolerate me for three years?

Why were you "tolerating" me?

Was I abusing you

or venting on you?

One has to put up with your bad temper

in order to get along with you.

Why don't you just say that you're petty?

These are small matters,

yet you remember them until now.

Never mind,

I am a forgiving person.

I am great because I am magnanimous.

Fine, keep on being so.

Don't disturb me from taking the subway.

You don't own the subway.

I want to take it, so what?

What?

Okay, don't regret it.

Don't worry, I'm not you.

Miss, excuse me,

how did you get in?

Just download the mobile app.

Wait... which one?

I…

[Zhongshan Park]

If I knew there were so many people,

I wouldn't have come in anyway.

Can you not be so naive?

And you have the nerve to say this.

It's all because you made me mad.

Shi Ying didn't even give you a car.

She's so stingy.
I'll tell her off about this.

Don't.

You can't change your mind
whether you become rich or poor.

Don't you try to deprave me with benefits.

No, you…

Why are you so ungrateful?

Also,

I talked about your senior

because I hope that you can have

a calm judgment as an adult.

No matter what project
he asks you to join,

you should at least

do an investment risk assessment

before making a decision, you know?

I know.

Please walk slowly and carefully.

Can you

explain to me now

what you meant by "tolerating" me?

Hurry up.

Don't block the way.

Don't push, don't step on my shoes.

Don't step on my foot.

Line up.

Why are you squeezing?

Stop pushing.

People are everywhere, can't you see?

Stop squeezing!
You're stepping on my feet!

There's no more space.

Xiaoyang, is Mr. Lu in the company?

No.

This is weird. Where did he go?

Shouldn't you

know where Mr. Lu is?

I've been waiting for him
outside his house the whole morning.

He's not answering the phone.

Did Mr. Lu get a new driver?

Is he going to fire me?

You think too much.

Check it for me.

Sure, let me investigate it.

Hello, Mr. Lu.

Morning.

Mr. Lu is here.

I'll help you find out now.

Bye.

Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu.

Morning.

Good morning, Mr. Lu.

These are the documents you'll need

for the meeting with the trust.

Please take a look.

Get my dry-cleaned suit

and bring it to me.

Find me another pair of shoes.

Mr. Lu, if you don't mind me asking.

How did you get to work today?

What does that have to do with you?

Go and get the stuff.

Okay, Mr. Zhang,

let's play golf this weekend.

All right, see you this weekend.

Ms. Shi.

Ning Meng.

This is the information
on Phoenix Home Textile.

Have a look.

Let's visit Joint Capital this afternoon.

Let's see if Mr. Lu is willing
to invest with us.

We're asking Mr. Lu again?

Yes.

Ning Meng, you have been with Mr. Lu
for three years.

You should be clear

that Joint Capital
has a strong brand effect

in this industry.

They also have many sources of funding.

Their relationship with limited partners

is also more stable.

Of course, we Eaglestone

have our own advantage.

I used to be a guarantor.

I was in touch with many companies.

I have many ways of getting projects.

When there are good projects,

I won't want to miss them.

As such, cooperating with Mr. Lu

is the best solution.

Okay, I'll take a look.

Good.

This project

was recommended by a friend of mine.

Phoenix Home Textiles

wants to do corporate transformation.

They are currently in the financial stage.

We would like to check

if you are interested, Mr. Lu.

Currently, transforming and upgrading

traditional manufacturing is a huge trend.

I'm quite interested.

I'll do some research on it first.

That's great.

Then, in these two weeks,

let's do a joint due diligence assessment.

We will send Ning Meng.

However, Ning Meng
lacks experience in terms

of systematic on-site
due diligence assessment.

I'm thinking of sending someone
to guide her.

Who should I send?

How about your side?

Mr. Ren?

My schedule is full.

Our department has a project
that requires me

to fly to Beijing and Guangzhou.

Mr. Lu, how about…

I suddenly remembered

that my good friend Zeng Yuhang

happens to have a project
to assess over there.

For this investigation,

why don't I go myself?

Then I can meet up with him.

That's great.

Mr. Lu, you are so experienced,

you only need a quarter
xof your full strength

to guide our Ning Meng.

It takes less than a quarter.

One-tenth is enough.

One-tenth, he said?

Why doesn't he cut himself into slices?

I'm just thankful

that he didn't say one percent.

Mengmeng,

is something wrong with you?

When you mentioned

this boss in the past,

you were full of hatred and resentment.

Why do you seem

quite happy now?

Did you get

Stockholm syndrome?

Don't worry, I'm not sick.

I'm also not trying to understand him.

From a certain point of view,

I've improved,

right?

Aren't you afraid

that he'll instruct you

to do this and that,

treating you as a maidservant?

He probably won't.

Recently, I think he is

not as annoying as before.

Moreover, he just learned his lesson

in the past two days.

He should remember it
for a long time to come.

Wait a minute, I need to get the door.

Coming.

Hello, Ning Meng.

Come with us tomorrow.

We'll drive there.

My car is quite spacious.

I can take you with me.

However, you'll have to drive.

I am from the Project Department,

not logistics.

Can't someone from
the Project Department drive?

No, I'll get motion sickness.

What kind of reason is that?

In the past three years,

you were frequently in my car.

Did you ever vomit then?

I swallowed it up.

Thank you, Mr. Lu.

I have already bought
the high-speed rail ticket.

Thank you, Mr. Zeng.

Bye-bye.

Rest early.

I'll withdraw my words.

This guy just doesn't get it.

Let's listen to a groovy tune,
shake it, man!

Hanghang, are you here yet?

I thought

she only talks to me

like this.

She talks like this to everyone.

As if she's sick.

[Phoenix]

I'm in the yard, I'm here.

Ning Meng.

You fit the look of a female investor.

Mr. Zeng, are you kidding me?

Hello, Mr. Lu.

Sorry to keep you guys waiting.

Thank you for taking the long journey.

This is our general manager, Yuan Jie.

I'm Lu Jiming, from Joint Capital.

Mr. Lu.

This is my good friend, Zeng Yuhang.

Hello.

He is also an investor.

Hello.

Mr. Lu, it's our pleasure to have you

do the due diligence assessment
personally.

Come in, please.

Have a look.

Give me your luggage,
I'll put it in the car.

Thanks.

This home textile factory is established

by my father in the late nineties.

Started as a small workshop
that only produces fabrics,

it now covers an area
of 30,000 square meters,

and is an enterprise worth
over 100 million yuan.

Ning Meng, you are standing so far away,

can you hear what Mr. Yuan is saying?

Come over.

Mr. Lu, she's…?

Hello,

I'm the analyst from Eaglestone Capital,

Ning Meng.

Hello.

Mr. Lu, let's move to the exhibition hall.

Great, please lead the way.

You have to walk in front,

listen more and see more.

Mr. Lu.

Currently, Phoenix Home Textiles

mainly supply beddings

to mid to low-tier hotels.

We hope that the financing this time

can introduce automated production lines

and expand overseas markets.

Mr. Yuan, how certain are you

about this corporate transformation?

I have studied in the States before.

I'm relatively familiar

with the state of the advanced technology
and overseas market.

The original business philosophy and model

of Phoenix

can no longer keep up

with the new trends in the global market.

Mr. Yuan, your father was the one

who took care of the business, right?

Yes, my father worked hard
for this factory

all his life.

He got ill from overworking,

and sadly, he passed away last year.

I am his only child,

taking over his business.

Few young people nowadays

are willing to take over
the family business.

Especially a business like this

with more than 20 years of history

and thousands of employees.

It's not easy to manage.

Mr. Yuan, to do this at your young age

is amazing.

Yet these are all merely
glories of the past.

Phoenix factory is old.

It's time for it to reborn.

When my father was alive,

he didn't want to do this.

The factory was never expanded.

It's a pity.

Mr. Lu,

this is the blueprint
of the factory reconstruction.

I'm planning to upgrade the existing
production workshops

to automated smart factories.

Introduce the latest
Enterprise Resource Planning

and Manufacturing Execution Systems,

improving overall operational efficiency.

Will this improve the quality
of home textiles?

The biggest improvement is efficiency.

Labor is so expensive now

that productive capacity is being
transferred to Southeast Asia.

We must also keep pace with the times,

replacing labor with machines.

Can you look at where you're going?

I'm fine.

Just take simple notes

and sort it out later.

See you tomorrow, Mr. Yuan.

See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow, Mr. Zeng.

Let's go, Ning Meng, get in the car.

No, my hotel is nearby.

I'll just walk over there.

We are a team, why should we
stay in two hotels?

Isn't that troublesome?

Yes.

Well, Mr. Lu…

It's okay, it's convenient to be close.

Then I'll go first.

Let's go, then.

Okay.

Nice environment.

Thanks.

Mr. Lu, let me help you check in.

Okay.

How did this Phoenix

book their hotels, huh?

They booked a five-star hotel

for a freeloader like you.

Yet they booked a guesthouse

for a hard worker like Ning Meng.

Interesting.

Why can't I

stay in a five-star hotel?

Do you want me to stay

in a guesthouse?

Don't tell me you

have a soft spot for Ning Meng?

It's for work.

It's inconvenient if we are far apart.

What kind of work

would require Ning Meng to come over
in the middle of the night?

It's normal to have
urgent matters at work.

What's wrong with that?

Just shut up.

Mr. Lu, you're checked in.

I'll bring you to your rooms.

Great.

This way, please.

Great.

Fortunately, I brought mine.

Mr. Zeng.

Hey, Ning Meng.

Pack your bags

and come here to stay.

Is something wrong?

The environment here is better.

Did Phoenix arrange this?

It's your Mr. Lu's arrangement.

He thinks that the hotel you're staying in
is not good.

He's afraid that you'll suffer.

No need, Mr. Zeng.

Please tell Mr. Lu

that I'm not under Joint Capital anymore.

I shouldn't take advantage of him.

You don't have to come
if you don't want to.

No appreciation.

Mr. Lu, thank you for your charity.

I don't need it.

Besides, I'm not the Prince of Peas,

I can sleep comfortably

on my bed in this small hotel.

I have other things to do,

goodbye and good night.

She hung up.

Let her be.

Let's have a drink?

Go ahead, I'm busy here.

Okay, bye.

[Phoenix Home Textile]

Mr. Lu, Ning arrived earlier,

she's already in the resource center.

Great.

Is Mr. Zeng not coming with you

to check on the documents?

He has other business today.

I see.

Mr. Chen.

Mr. Lu.

Mr. Lu,

shall we provide you
with a separate office?

One with a better environment.

No, it's more efficient

for both of us to work together.

This is fine.

All right.

All right,

I'll bring you some coffee in a bit.

Thanks.

Mr. Lu, do you really want to work here?

What's wrong?

Can't I stay where you can stay?

Can you stand the dust here?

If you can't stand it, don't act tough.

I can live with smog,

the dust here is nothing.

What are you reading?

Why are you reading their history?

Brainless.

When it comes to manufacturers,

first read the financial report.

Have you interviewed finance yet?

Yes.

It's dusty.

You should first look at
the receivables, bad debts,

and asset efficiency.

Combine that with the results
of the interview.

Compare them
and see if there's anything fishy.

Okay.

You don't know anything,
yet you want to do this project.

I wonder what Shi Ying taught you.

You say I'm not suited
to work on projects.

Yet you are teaching me how to do
a due diligence assessment.

Aren't you contradicting yourself?

I seem to hear someone
got slapped on his face.

Can't you tell?

I'm doing all these

so that you can avoid being embarrassed
or criticized

by your temporary boss.

I don't want people to think

that my mentee is lousy.

Okay.

Then please have a look,

how should this part be compared?

First of all, you need to look at their
financial reports

and cash flow capabilities.

Next, look at their fixed assets.

Compare them carefully.

This one.

Then the next year.

Make no mistake.

I'm afraid you can't see clearly.

Mr. Lu,

are you going for lunch?

Yeah, I'm a little hungry.

Do you have any requirements for lunch?

No.

I'll eat what you provide.

We will serve the best to you.

Our leader said

to arrange for you individually.

Arranged individually?

It's just two of us.

Do we have to eat separately?

We can discuss

over lunch.

It's alright. I'll eat at the cafeteria.

Mr. Lu, so...

I'll eat at the cafeteria, too.

Mr. Lu, the cafeteria is over there.

Why didn't you say it sooner?

This, please.

We are late.

There's not much food left
in the cafeteria.

Why don't you get Mr. Chen
to take you out to eat?

Forget about it.

What if he arranged

a feast for me?

What a waste of time.

That's true.

It would be a pickle

if you realized the project is problematic

after enjoying a feast from them.

Even if they treat me to

one hundred feasts,

I won't invest in a company
that I shouldn't.

What a good work ethic.

Please.

Thank you.

Can you really swallow these?

Why not?

Aren't all cafeterias like this?

Why are you laughing?

I thought of a joke.

What kind of joke?

There is a father and son.

They are both drunkards.

One day,

they went out to buy wine together.

One of them accidentally
stumbled on the road

and spilled the wine.

The father is very smart.

He responded quickly

by lying on the ground

and slurping up the wine on the floor.

The son was stupid

and slow to respond.

The father then scolds his son,

"You fool,

what are you waiting for?"

"Come and drink!"

"What's the matter?
Do you want your mother

to cook you some dish
to go with the wine?"

I know you're talking about me.

Those who stare and wait are silly boys.

What's that?

My secret seasoning.

Did you bring it here on purpose?

It's always in my suitcase.

This is delicious.

Just by pairing it with rice,

I can eat three bowls of rice.

This is so delicious.

It's so good.

Let me try it.

How's it?

It's not bad.

Do you still have any jokes?

There was someone who loved to sing,

and he felt that he had

a melodious voice.

Whenever he sang, his neighbor would cry.

He thought his neighbor was moved by him.

One day, he sang again
and the neighbor cried again.

He was very proud,
and he asked the neighbor,

"Were you

moved by my singing voice?"

Then the neighbor wiped away
his tears and said,

"Dude, let me tell you,

I used to have a screaming donkey

which is very close to me."

"But it got lost."

"Whenever I hear your voice,

I would remember it."

"Because both of your voices

are so similar."

How come I didn't know

you're so good at telling jokes?

You don't know a lot about me.

This meal is really average,

but your jokes go well with the food.

Have some more then.

Add some more of this.

Buy me a few more cans.

Can I claim reimbursement?

You're so stingy.

The atmosphere in our factory

is getting weirder and weirder.

Yes.

It was fine when the former boss was here.

Yes, the new boss

says a lot of stuff

that we don't understand.

He thinks he's amazing just because
he studied abroad.

He's changing things so much

that the factory

is almost unrecognizable.

Really.

Eat.

[Phoenix]

Mr. Lu, did you hear

the complaints from the employees?

We have to look at the bigger picture.

Yuan Jie seems like

a hard worker.

I can see

that he is anxious to improve the factory.

That's true.

It may be a lot of pressure for a son
to inherit his father's business.

What's wrong?

I forgot to take my secret seasoning.

I'll retrieve it.

Forget it.

Isn't that embarrassing?

Tell me another joke.

Come.

Once upon a time, there was a fool
who loved to listen to jokes...

I understand what you said.

Thank you.

It's my job.

All right.

Be on your way back then.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Mr. Lu.

Is the interview done?

Ms. Han is the last one today.

Great.

Mr. Lu,

once the production line
has been upgraded,

with an intelligent system,

they would need fewer workers.

Would that lead to mass layoffs?

Isn't there an employee placement program

in Mr. Yuan's plan?

In reforms, there will
always be sacrifices.

It's inevitable.

Let's go through all the data first.

Then we will focus on assessing

the things that can't be seen.

Ms. Shi has also called me today

about the progress,
and I've reported to her.

From the current situation,

there shouldn't be any problems.

Don't be too happy yet.

Due diligence assessment
is a prudent investigation.

It's fine to be meticulous.

I understand.

When I go back,

I will put the interview results

and the data for comparison.

I'll see if it matches.

Seems like you still have some brains.

That's a lot of data, though.
Can you finish it?

I can stay up for a night.

No problem.

Forget it, I'll go to your place.

Let's go.

What are you thinking?

I'm afraid you can't do it alone,

so I want to help you.

Are you sure?

My place is not a five-star hotel.

What does that matter?

I'm here to work,

not for vacation.

[Guesthouse]

This way, please.

It's pretty shabby here.

You are the one who wanted to come.

What kind of chair is this?

It's so hard.

It's a problem with the chair.

Stop talking nonsense.

Is there anything to eat?

Let's get something to eat
and get down to work.

Why don't I get you a takeaway?

Why waste that time?

Are you sure you want to eat this?

Do you think I haven't had this before?

Ning Meng, you are so petty.

I'm just having one box of your stuff.

I'll get you a few boxes when we go back.

It's my treat.

Ning Meng.

It's alright.

It's just that my eyes are sore.

I just need some eye drops.

Mr. Lu, please take a look here.

Regarding the bad debt risk.

Mr. Lu.

What is it?

The corporate receivables

range from one to three years.

Some businesses

may play with the age in the accounts.

What's wrong?

Keep asking, why do you care?

Is the bad debt reserve ratio appropriate?

About this?

Sometimes,

you can't just look at the surface.

On the accounts, they are making money,

but the business is actually losing money.

Look at this line.

Here.

Moth!

It's a big one.

Ning Meng.

Hit it.

It's flying away.

Don't move.

Where is it?

Don't move.

Why did you hit me?

I'm sorry.

I was hitting the bug.

I'm sorry, Mr. Lu.

Did you get it?

I don't know.

Look for it.

It's there.

Ning Meng, come on, hit it.

I can't reach it. You should do it.

Well…

You are tall.

Why don't you

wait for it to fly down before you hit it?

Are you afraid of bugs?

What are you saying?

Why should I be afraid of it?

Did you get it?

It's dead.

Quickly throw it away.

Use your hand.

My God, the documents!

Hurry up.

Ning Meng, let's go.

Hurry up.

Take them away.

Don't let them get wet.

Take it out first.

Oh my God.

What happened?

What are you doing?

Take this.

Give it to me.

The computer.

Give it to me.

Take it.

Dry your head,

or else water will get in.

Your head is full of water, not mine.

Why don't you move to my place tonight?
