Just take the next lift.

We're in a rush.

I am also in a rush.

Thanks.

Hey pal,

do you mind helping me all the way?

Could you help me bring this

to that warehouse

over there?

I...

The meeting room is room 302, right?

I'll be over in a minute.

Come here.

Come.

Everyone, please have a seat.

Today,

I have invited the company's

IT department

and Brain Data's consulting team

to discuss

and enquire about our procurement plan

for data services.

I did not graduate from university.

I started out as a courier,

and worked in the management of the company

for many years.

Since I'm not familiar with technology,

I will leave it to the IT department

to handle it.

Please,

introduce

Brain Data's plan.

Hello, Mr. Dai...

Wait,

let that young man present.

Hello, Mr. Dai.

I am still new to the company.

Our company's department manager

is better placed to present.

If...

I can be

convinced by a new employee,

I can trust your company.

Let Wu Yue do it then.

The important point is on the second line on the third page.

Boss.

I'm...

I'm sorry

for being late.

Ms. Xia Fei, the vice general manager

in charge of software development,

is returning from abroad soon.

I will choose three people

amongst you all

to learn about the work

in the software department.

Am I included

as one of those three persons?

Zhang Jiang and Wu Zhi Xiong as well.

Zhang Jiang is a technical expert.

How about Wu Zhi Xiong?

He is a technical architect.

You?

Software consulting services.

Not happy?

What do you want?

No,

why would I not be happy?

I want to become

a high-level

software developer.

You are already considered one

by being in Brain Data.

How are the preparations

for tonight's competition?

Not so good.

I guessed as much.

I will give you a hand

when necessary.

I beg you, please also take care of it yourself.

Come.

Our solution...

Please hold on.

Actually,

what I want to know

is what do you think

of a courier company

like us buying

data services?

After all,

a courier company

is considered

low-class

and unsophisticated.

While a data company like yours

is so high-class and impressive.

To be honest,

when I got here, I thought I had

arrived at the wrong location.

When I saw

that an executive of the company

was willing to

do even the lowest level of work,

I was extremely touched

and had hope.

I saw diligence,

drive,

and ambition,

as well as a stable attitude

towards success.

I think that

these qualities are

more valuable than

any data analysis.

Please continue with your presentation.

My "mentor"

gave me a cheat sheet

called the Law of Survival in Brain Data.

It's absolutely valuable advice

that I'd like to "share share".

Why can't you

speak Chinese properly?

This was rule number three

that I was referring to.

Quickly start

to speak a mix of Chinese and English.

It is alright if your English is not good,

but you must know how

to speak the important words in English.

I should indeed

note these down.

I will start with the first rule.

First,

you can never clear all the emails

but you have to read them.

What should you do?

You should always

read the emails from your boss first.

So you can suck up to the boss?

You can read from the first email if you want to.

The time you have in a day...

As I was saying,

second,

the clients and your boss

are both correct.

Welcome to Mad Geek.

In this competition,

we will have two groups of contestants competing against each other.

Boss Ren is on Mad Geek again.

Which means,

only half of the teams

will remain

in this competition.

The second round is finally starting.

Are you all ready?

Ready!

I sense your fighting spirit!

In this round,

each team will point out issues

with the creativeness or programming aspects

of the opposing team's app.

You get one point

if you succeed,

and lose one point

if you fail.

Understood?

Understood.

Alright.

Contestant Ah Gui,

since you have fewer team members,

you will attack first.

Please begin.

Opposing contestant,

please elaborate on the principle

of the implementation

of your software for

taking human measurements.

Machine learning.

Well then,

what data do you use

for training?

The user's measurements,

clothing measurements

and match satisfaction.

Do you assess

match satisfaction

via surveys?

If so,

which company do you

use for the surveys?

Are they accurate, dependable and reliable?

To my knowledge,

survey companies in its industry

face serious data forgery issues.

Meanwhile, your algorithm

is extremely sensitive to data inputs.

Just

five percent of false data

is enough to cause your model

to make serious errors.

Also, factors like match satisfaction

are so subjective.

Academics in recent years

have raised doubts

about building models in this way.

We just need

a rough measurement

and don't need to be overly precise.

I see.

If you can't

guarantee the accuracy,

then how do you perform

your data-based clothing matching?

This...

We...

I...

Congrats, Contestant Ah Gui,

you win a point.

Didn't I just

tell Xiao Man about this?

Nice attack.

Did Ah Gui

get Xiao Man to help?

What's so good watching this?

Let's change the channel.

No, no, no, please, Goddess.

Just give in to me once?

Okay?

Ah Gui, could you

explain how practical

your app is?

Practical?

You say

your drones will use

algorithms to locate the target.

Then

how would you make your app

be known and

used by more people?

Domestically,

our country has gradually

controlled the use of drones.

Also,

do you know

such apps also have technical limitations?

Ah Gui,

you're in danger.

Supervisor Yang,

do we need to change

the contents of our speech?

I feel like Mr. Dai

is not very satisfied with our data.

Should we change

to using the other side's data?

Why do you keep asking so many questions?

Should you be asking these questions?

As a new employee,

you should just observe and learn.

If the clients insist on

having you do the report,

I will tell him that

you are not qualified

to access such confidential information.

This is according to

our internal company processes.

Understood.

Still not used to working overtime,

young man?

Working overtime

is usual for us IT folks!

Shred this.

Okay.

A new employee should

behave like a new employee.

Tell the secretary

to order some food.

A Ling,

could you do me a favour?

We need five packets of food.

Sure, no problem.

I'll go now.

It's no rush, take your time.

Officer Wang.

It's me.

Could I trouble you to

pick up Tian Tian from the kindergarten tonight

and send him to the cafe?

Okay.

Thanks.

Tian Tian.

Why not go to my house?

I can't.

Brother told me that I have to

go home and wait for him

and I cannot go anywhere else.

You little one.

You're just like your brother.

Let's go.

Thank you.

We still don't know

when the overtime ends.

Can't you buy

some proper food for us?

Do you know how to be a secretary?

I'm sorry.

It's my fault for not explaining clearly.

I'm sorry.

The biggest bug

with your app is that

you use a person's figure

to do the match

instead of the face.

If the same body is used

but with a different face,

would your match still be accurate?

What Ah Gui is saying

makes sense.

Yes,

we should also input

a person's looks in the parameters.

Shut up.

Right now,

Contestant Ah Gui

is ahead by one point.

Up next...

How do you solve the

problem of the target

being unwilling

to be the target?

Not everyone wants to be

confessed to

in public.

Also,

this function could be

used by others to invade

the personal privacy of others.

How do you ensure your app

is secure?

Furthermore,

what would you do

if your app is used by

criminals to commit crimes

or

illegal surveillance

or tracking?

How would you respond?

The continuous attacks

have left contestant Ah Gui

speechless.

The mentors

are going to start

casting their votes.

First, let's invite

Mentor Mu Yi.

Your preparation

isn't very adequate.

I can't let you advance.

It doesn't matter.

You are temporarily behind by one point.

However, there's a chance to get two more points.

There are two more mentors.

If you manage to

get two points in a row,

you can still advance.

Up next,

we have

Mentor Shu Yi.

What's your choice?

I have faith

in the technology behind your app.

It's promising.

I'll give you a point.

Ah Gui,

you got another point.

Now the score

is

two versus two.

It's down to the last point.

If you win it,

you will advance.

Alright.

The burden is now on

Ren Qian Qiu.

Mr. Ren.

The most important quality we

look out for on this show

is whether the project has potential.

The purpose of

us mentors

is to constantly

help the younger ones

perfect their creativity.

If everyone's creativity

is already perfect,

they should

go and look for

angel investors

instead of choosing

to be here on this stage.

Therefore,

I agree with Mentor Shu Yi.

You pass!

Congratulations, Contestant Ah Gui.

You have successfully advanced.

I believe that Contestant Ah Gui must be

very excited right now.

She must have a lot of wish to say.

I knew you would be fine.

I would just like to say.

Her mind must be

completely blank now.

We shall let her

process her thoughts.

Contestant Ah Gui,

please share your

thoughts on advancing.

I would like to thank the mentors,

the other contestants

as well as

the audience.

I have decided to

retire from the competition.

My project

is incomplete and

has many risks.

I feel that I need some time

to conduct a review.

To recklessly promote and develop it

would be disrespectful

not just to me, but to you guys as well.

Next time,

I will stand before you once again

once I am better prepared.

Thank you, everyone.

What's this?

(BOOKS & FLOWERS COFFEE)

What are you doing?

You can't go up.

Don't mention this.

You heard wrongly.

If you don't believe me...

Stop saying it.

Can you get back to work?

(WAREHOUSE)

I knew there was someone.

You little brat.

Come, follow me.

I'm a ghost.

I'm not human.

Who do you think you're scaring?

So it's you,

messing around.

Look at our boss

being scared out of his wits.

Come,

you better

follow me down.

Follow me.

Let's go down. Come!

Brother.

My brother said

we won't have a place to stay

if I get discovered.

I already said not to go up, why didn't you listen?

It's okay now.

It's okay.

True men don't shed tears.

Everything will be okay.

Okay.

Boss.

Come here.

Hurry.

What did he do to you?

Who are you talking about?

Just now...

What happened?

My head hurts.

Are you

really okay?

I'm okay.

Go home and rest early.

Don't underestimate us secretaries.

There are many things to learn

from the company's articles of association,

employee information,

to the reporting line.

I'm overwhelmed.

I'm sure that

such things won't faze

a science graduate

from a key University like you.

Maybe it's not these things that faze me.

But...

How should I say...

Like today,

when I spoke to a foreigner,

once I spoke,

someone commented,

saying

"Which rural area's

accent is this?"

Also,

when they all speak Chinese,

I understand

what each word means,

but not when

all of them are said together.

Speaking of misery,

let me tell you a secret.

I am going to be removed from this project.

Doesn't that suck to the core?

But don't worry.

Things will get better soon.

I understand, Class Rep.

Thank you.

Go home early.

Why are you crying?

Is it because

I won?

If not, then what is it?

Is Boss left?

Don't worry.

That's too much!

How could they kick you out?

They said I'm stupid

and sided with outsiders.

It's okay,

at least you still

got to see through some people

during the competition.

But

how could they ask me to leave

after the interface has been done?

I am not too strong

in this aspect.

Once I've thought through my app,

I'll include you in the team.

Don't cry.

How could you tell other people?

What if he

told Edward directly?

Then he will turn into a puppy.

No,

we shall move out tonight.

Boss, you're back.

And Sister Mai Qi.

You look great today.

Sister Mai Qi.

You...

Are you going to the second floor?

Move aside.

We haven't cleaned...

Sister Mai Qi! Sister Mai Qi!

Sister,

you are a girl, we don't want to

frighten you.

Boss,

please stop her.

He invited me here.

I don't believe there's a ghost here.

If there is something supernatural,

then I shall be the talisman.

I am not scared

of what's up there.

Sister Mai Qi,

it's dangerous.

Stop.

Holographic

video calls

are not perfect

and will be affected by light

temperature

and airflow.

Don't come near.

So that's what it is.

I don't believe it.

Do it again.

Sister Mai Qi.

He already said

the technology is new

and easily affected

by various factors.

You stupid.

If he had this technology,

he wouldn't be under me

and would be my boss already.

That day will come.

You seem quite cocky.

Why haven't you applied for a patent

and get your Nobel or something?

Sister Mai Qi was in meetings.

You may go in now.

Have a seat.

Okay.

Please excuse me.

I had so many meetings.

I have half an hour.

You previously said

that if we had

any difficulties,

we could always approach you for help,

right?

I said I would try my best to help you,

but I can't promise

whether it could be solved.

I'm not a fairy, after all.

Our supervisor told me

that the software department

can only give

one ticket to the newcomers,

and only those with a ticket

will get the household registration.

However, there are has three newcomers

in our software department.

Su Xiao Man's performance is outstanding.

Zhang Jiang is an IT genius.

Su Xiao Man

has the local household registration.

As for the ticket,

our HR

will strive to get it.

How long before I can get it?

Half a year.

Perhaps a year.

It might even be two.

No,

I can't wait for so long.

Well...

there might be a way.

Other departments

have extra tickets.

Transfer to the maintenance department.

Is that it?

Going to the maintenance department,

starting from the bottom,

is an option.

Bravo, Boss Ren.

What?

I saw you on

Mad Geek as a guest.

So handsome.

Did you put

on make-up in front of the camera?

Your features seem more...

chiseled?

More like cold.

Your words, not mine.

Right,

Feng Zheng Zheng,

you two know each other, right?

Of course.

Who doesn't know

the sole university graduate

who made it out of the session?

She's now responsible

for technical support

in your field.

I hope the two of you can

work well together.

Sure.

Looking forward to working with you.

Looking for me?

Come in.

So,

what's up?

Regarding that

logistics account you arranged,

I'm now visiting the clients.

I happened to have pleased

the general manager,

and that pissed off Yang Guo Ru.

So,

what should I do now?

Brain Data is a place

with various talents hidden

and a promising prospect underneath.

But

pay attention to the words "hidden"

and "underneath".

Don't show off

unless it's absolutely necessary.

But I know his decision is wrong.

Should I point it out?

I told you before.

So long as you are in Brain Data,

keep low-profile.

Besides, how do you know

his judgment must be wrong?

It is not often

for both sides to win.

Many times,

one side wins,

while the other loses.

What if both sides lose?

Then stay firm,

and do what you think is right.

I just have one request.

Keep your conscience clear.

Alright.

Let's go to the meeting.

What are you doing?

Looks boring.

Why not join our department

to work closely with clients

in all aspects?

Isn't that interesting?

Actually,

codes can also be

slightly

interesting.

Then quickly tell me

how coding can be interesting?

For example,

here...

♪Summer's love is♪

♪Buzzcut, lightning and a bicycle♪

♪Summer's love is♪

♪Dark skin with a white shirt♪

♪The young lady's heart♪

♪Came in March♪

♪It is already full♪

♪By July♪

Wu Yue.

♪A full love♪

Su Xiao Man, you look beautiful today!

♪Is not complicated♪

♪The fuller it is♪

♪The simpler it gets♪

Wu Yue.

We are talking about codes,

do you want

to join us?

♪As the wind blows across the sky♪

♪It's dreams and birds♪

♪That Summer where she is rushing to harvest the fruits♪

In short,

data analysis

has become vital

to all aspects of logistics,

attracting the attention

of logistics companies

and also bringing them

high profitability.

But...

Stop.

Supervisor Yang.

How much

do you understand our company?

Do you know what time

our delivery staffs

wake up every day?

Do you know

how much risk

each package faces of being lost?

You guys

only know

how to show us a bunch of charts and data.

Then,

you make your grand speeches,

trying to convince us

to buy this and that.

Our company

has a lot of experience

in data management and risk assessment

in the logistics industry.

As for this,

you may rest assured.

We have had

many success stories

both abroad and domestically.

To the greatest extent possible,

we will help you achieve

a high-quality delivery process.

Success stories?

Supervisor Yang.

Do you know exactly

what I want?

Mr. Dai.

If you

still have doubts about

the sincerity of our company,

I am willing to work

in your company for a week as a newcomer

to be exposed to all aspects of your business,

and present all the issues I see

and possible solutions

to you.

Sure.

Young man,

you shall start tomorrow.

You

can wear this uniform of mine.

You're a newcomer.

What issues can you spot?

What solutions can you think of?

Just keep quiet and learn like Mei Tong.

No one needs your advice!

You go ahead and make decisions

without discussing with me.

Simply

ridiculous!

Such arrogance!

It's impossible to

take those words back even if I want to.

I hope you know

that you have completely

embarrassed our company.

You want to be a courier...

So childish!

Let me try.

If I fail,

I will personally apologize to Mr. Dai.

Anyway, I am a new employee.

Any mistakes I make

are not representative of Brain Data.

If that happens, you just pack up and leave.

I am not going to settle the problems you made!

How about

I also apply to be a courier?

Listen to me, I'm an expert in love.

I'll teach you a trick.

Whether you see him or not

is not the problem.

What's important

is to be close to his soul.

How?

To be close to a soul like Wu Yue,

I feel you

should start from the books he reads.

Books?

You can peek at

what books he's reading recently.

For example,

I looked through Lin Shao's phone apps.

There was nothing

other than games.

I could immediately

tell he has a playful soul.

(Uncle Wu and Aunty's funeral has been taken care of.)

(It didn't alarm anyone this time.)

(Let's decide on the other matters when you get back.)

(Attached is the letter from the doctor.)

(My condolences. Is everything settled for your school?)

(Do you need me to help with anything?)

(Can't believe I didn't even get to see them for the last time.)

(Xiao Quan, I don't know what I would do without you.)

(What's happened has happened. Pick yourself up.)

(Don't worry about Tian Tian, I'll look after him first.)

(By the way, let me know once you book your flight.)

(I'll go pick you up.)

(Xiao Quan, do you know why they're being like this?)

(Did something happen?)

(Did you hear any news?)

(Why would they commit suicide for no reason?)

(Don't panic, I'm asking around as well.)

(It seems like a suicide currently. Think about it.)

(Did Uncle and Aunty ever meet with any setbacks?)

Da Qi.

I heard you and Wu Zhi Xiong

were transferred to the maintenance department.

What about it?

Wu Zhi Xiong?

Previously, Boss Ren said

to put him in the software department.

Don't compare me to him.

My degree was in

software maintenance.

I'm a professional.

Unlike him,

fixing hardware

like some repairman.

Don't say that of him.

Everyone has their own job.

No job

is above the others.

Easy for you to say.

Oh right.

I almost forgot it.

Wu Yue

has now become a courier.

He's on a lower level than Wu Zhi Xiong.

He can't be so naive

to think that the clients

will be convinced by that, can he?

He should have just

played along obediently.

He should be more professional.

What do you mean by "professional"?

To wear a suit and feel superior,

using your computer and

and speaking,

is that professionalism?

That is exactly our

IT professionalism.

The views of world, life and value

of us in Brain Data

are all ruined by Wu Yue.

Today, he signs up

to be a courier.

Tomorrow,

he joins the sanitation bureau

to clean roads.

The day after,

he joins the railway bureau

to operate a train.

I can't believe

he should be doing this.

Do you want me to

teach you a lesson?

Are you out of your mind?

Wu Yue's behaviour is disgusting.

He has ruined

the reputation of our company.

Disgusting?

It's called getting experience.

What do you know?

You can never do what he's doing

because you are useless.

What did you say?

Say it again.

I said you're useless.

Don't forget that I'm your landlord.

Don't make me...

What? What will you do?

Not working?

Why are you arguing?

Shall I

inform Mr. Ren

to come and take you away?

Don't cry anymore.

Oh, come here.

You already won the argument,

there's no need to cry.

Aren't you a heroine?

No need to cry.

It's unfair.

Okay, okay.

I know you've been wronged.

Don't cry.

Wu Yue has been wronged.

Why is this tissue so smelly.

Alright.

Don't cry.

Who is he to say those things?

Wu Yue?

Yes,

who's this?

My surname is Li,

I'm your agent.

We met

during the meeting

at the logistics company.

You might not remember me.

But I recognized you,

young man.

You are very bold.

Thanks.

So why did you call me?

I'll be direct,

don't be offended.

I know you are willing

to work at a logistics company

to learn the trade.

But just like

Yang Guo Ru,

I feel that

you are wasting your time.

If you have nothing else to say...

You see,

you're getting annoyed.

Put it this way,

I can tell that

you want to succeed,

whether it's for yourself

or Brain Data.

As for me,

I also

hope to get this account.

I am calling you

because Mr. Dai likes you.
