[A Date with the Future]

[Episode 2]
[Winning him over is why I am here.]

Mr. Jin,

hello again.

You again?

You remember me?

Yeah.

You remembered?

The reporter who wrote articles
not based on facts.

It seems that
Mr. Jin has a bad impression of me.

You still have the nerve to come here.

Do you know that because of your report,

Shichuan was scolded online to what extent?

We didn't look for you,
but you dare to show up here.

Hand it over.

As for the report video about the event
on National Highway 307,

I sincerely apologize to you and all of you.

This time I'm here to make amends.

I hope I can do a special report
on firefighting for you.

No way.

Let's continue.

You don't have a choice.

You're all here.

Fall in.

Let me introduce to you.

HGTV reporter, Xu Lai.

She's here to do an interview for you.

Starting from today,
she'll be following you in and out.

I hope you can cooperate with her work.

Commissar, as we are busy
with many missions recently,

we really don't have the time and energy
to work with any interviews.

This is an order
from the Special Service Unit.

You can't refuse but follow the order.

Yes, Sir.

Continue.

Okay, let's go.

What's wrong?

Since you forgot me,

let's get to know each other once again.

My name is Xu Lai.

Don't forget me this time.

You've said it before.

Bravo.

Awesome.

Commissar Wen,
thank you for supporting my work.

As for the report video about the event
on National Highway 307,

it was not my intention.

I'm really sorry.

I've been working in firefighting
for many years.

I've seen a bunch of news reports
and information online.

There are inevitably
some misunderstandings and biases.

But this is the first time

I saw a reporter take the initiative

to clarify and justify someone.

I can see your sincerity in it.

I believe you.

Now, you're the only one who believes me.

Everyone at the fire station
despises me deeply.

Since you knew it, why would you still come?

I heard that Mr. Jin is difficult to deal with,

so I wanted to have a try and tackle it.

Winning him over

is why I am here.

If you want to win Jin Shichuan over,

you'd better be prepared to crack a hard nut.

Listen, he's a stubborn guy.

Very obstinate.

And his team members
are utterly devoted to him.

They absolutely won't
cooperate with you easily.

Don't worry.

I'll show you how I conquer Jin Shichuan

and his teammates.

Great.

She wants us to work with her?
She must be crazy.

If she dares to stay here tomorrow,

I won't let her off easy.

Leader, in my opinion,

this female reporter is too brazen.

We didn't even look for her,

but she came to us herself.

I think Xu Lai is not easy to deal with.

Just from her posture earlier,

in all my life, I've never seen
such an arrogant woman.

Didn't she apologize?

Right.

And she's also specially doing
an interview for us.

I think her attitude is quite sincere.

Besides, having a woman in our station
isn't a good thing?

- W-What logic is that?
- Yeah.

Come on.

She is a woman? She's the ingrate.

I'm telling you.

Listen up.

From now on, don't pay her any attention.

Why?

Teach her a lesson.

Are you all idle?

Sir.

Sir.

How do you want to handle Xu Lai?

Just by one word, and we'll all help you vent.

Right, right.

Give her the cold shoulder.

Not for long, she will leave naturally.

Look, look.

Mr. Jin has seen through it all.

She expects to follow us, right?

The workload in this fire station is huge

with dirty and tiring jobs.

When she can't handle it,

she'll slink away on her own.

You're right about that.
We'll all just ignore her.

No matter how brazen she is, she won't stay.

Stop mulling over how others think.

Make way.

Eyes-front!

Right-face!

Left-face!

Mr. Jin.

Hello. I'd like to ask
how long it usually takes

for your fire station to respond to a call?

I…

Why are you sighing?

Sis,

it's clear that they're treating us as air.

No one wants to respond to us.

Let alone cooperating with the interview.

I can't even take a frontal photo.

Isn't that a good thing?

What's good about it?

It proves that
they're united with strong cohesion.

Jin Shichuan leads the team well.

Yeah, they're united,

but our featured report is doomed.

Who said it's doomed?

To defeat your enemy, catch the leader first.

If you take down the leader,

the rest will submit.

Let's go.

Sis,

what about ordering takeout instead?

No way.

If you want to blend into a team,
you can't seek any personal privileges.

There's one steamed stuffed bun left.
You can have it.

What will you eat then?

I have a way.

If I faint from hunger here,
you'll have to take care of me.

You don't want that trouble, right?

Mr. Jin.

If you don't accept my interview,

I'll follow you every day.

You don't want me to loiter
in front of you every day, do you?

Or do you hope that

I eat from the same plate as you

like today?

Ask me.

Which year did you become a firefighter?

2010.

Among the people you've rescued,

are there any memorable ones?

No.

Not a single one?

Not a single one.

I saved a lot.
I didn't deliberately remember them.

Do you usually get a lot of time off?

Very little.

Is Mr. Jin giving in?

The enemy is too powerful.

What do you like to do when you're on vacation?

Squats, deadlifts, and pull-ups.

Don't you need to spend time
with your girlfriend?

No need. I'm single.

So, what are your requirements
on your future spouse?

No requirements.

No requirements?

You won't refuse anyone who pursues you?

What reporter are you?

Why do you act like an entertainment reporter?

Asking these boring questions?

What are you laughing at?

I'm laughing because these are

the most words you've ever said to me
since I came here.

I'm very happy to
have made new progress with you.

No. 13 on the Gujieli Street reports hornets.

Multiple residents were stung.

Special Service Brigade One, please action now.

Zhou, get the equipment ready.

[Firefighting, Emergency Rescue,
Social Assistance]

Stay at the station and keep us in the loop.

Understood.

Zhou, hurry up.

Okay.

So, firefighters are responsible for
fighting things like hornets?

Do you think our firefighters
are only responsible for putting out fires?

Incidents like removing hornet nests

will occur over 100 times a year.

That's not even including those small things.

Really? What small things are there?

Like unlocking doors,

and rescuing cats and dogs.

Children get stuck in fences,

hands get stuck in rings,

or drunkards get stuck in water pipes.

And those who commit suicide
by jumping off a building,

or who fall into the river and drowning.

In short, be it big or small,

as long as the people encounter difficulties,

our fire station will always be there.

- Set off!
- Yes, Sir.

Talkative, huh?

Thanks. It's a great material.

Zhou, let's go.

How is it?

It hurts.

Get off, get off.

Does it still hurt?

Who called the police?

It was me. The wasp nest is over there.

Over there, the wasps are really fierce.

Look, look, I got stung.

The child got stung by a hornet. Right?

Yes.

Did you help him apply any medicine?

I pulled out the stinger
and just wiped it with iodine.

There came the rash.

- Dapeng.
- Here.

Take the child and the injured to the hospital.

Yes.

Here, let me help you hold him.

Okay, thank you.

Let's go. To the hospital.

Sir. The nest is over there.

This big.

I saw it. Let's go take a look.

Yes.

Hurry up.

Cui Jianan, set up the ladder.

Yes.

Tao, get the woven bag and insecticides

to exterminate the peripheral hornets.

Yes.

Liu Xu, prepare for removing the nest.

Understood.

Sis, for this part,

let's just film from here.

Getting too close is too dangerous.

No. We can't see clearly from here.

No matter how dangerous it is,
we must get this footage.

But…

I'll do this part.

Sis.

You can't get in there.
It's very dangerous there.

Only firefighters are allowed in.

This is my job. Please show some support.

Wait.

If you get stung, don't blame me.

Sir.

The hospital said it was fortunate
that we got there in time,

or it could have been life-threatening.

The boy's mother wanted me
to convey her gratitude to you.

As long as he's okay.

Sis, did you get it all on film?

Yes.

Sis, there's a big bump on your head.

That's what you get for being brave.

Thank you for saving me just now, Mr. Jin.

Cold on the outside but caring on the inside.

I understand.

Move a bit to the side.

It's a bit crowded.

Liu Xu, I'm leaving now.

Shi Lei, bye.

Dapeng, bye.

Tao.

Lu Fangqi, I'm going home.

It's okay.

Don't come here tomorrow.

Mr. Jin, are you worried about me?

Thank you, Mr. Jin.

I think you really have a bump in your brain.

Look how pleased you are.

What do you know? This is called a love mark.

Love mark?

He doesn't even recognize you,

and you're still having wishful thinking.

What's wrong with wishful thinking?
I'm happy with it.

I don't understand.

Why do you have to approach him this way?

Just tell him directly. Isn't that easier?

Chasing after someone also requires tactics.

Just like when we report news,

the order of telling the story is essential.

If I reveal my cards right from the start,

won't he see right through me?

There's no suspense.

How can I arouse his interest in me?

Racking your brains indeed.

Why do you insist on choosing Jin Shichuan?

If someone else had saved you back then,

would you still have to
desperately chase after him?

It's not the same.

Jin Shichuan not only saved my life,

but also brought light into my life.

I'll get you out now.

Come on.

Don't be afraid. Trust me.

I'll protect you.

You're done for.

I think you're already completely trapped.

Incurable.

Who said I am incurable?

Jin Shichuan is my cure.

You treat him as a cure,

but he may not be the right remedy for you.

I don't want to talk to you.

Here comes another incurable one.

Who is it?

Don't worry about it.

Cure your own illness first.

As your buddy,

I sincerely advise you

to express your feelings now if you like him.

Don't drag it out.

Otherwise, once he gets used to your presence,

it's easier for him to ignore your feelings,

and you might end up empty-handed.

Why does this sound like
you are so experienced?

You, a playboy,

have had a crush on someone too?

It's not me.

I had this feeling
because one of my friends experienced this.

Who is it?

Who is it? Tell me.

Eat, eat. Have the meal.

[Qiancao Train Canteen]
What you just said made a lot of sense.

Of course, it's all from experience.

I told you it's a friend.

Huo, what brings you here?

I just happened to pass by.

Just happened to pass by?

I have something else to do.

I'll leave now. You guys go ahead.

I'll send you home, Xu Lai.

Okay, where are you going?

I'm going to…

Chasing girls, right?

As a good friend, I sincerely advise you,

don't always play with their feelings.

You'll get your just deserts.

Alright, I'll leave you.

Leaving, bros. Go home early.

Let's go.

Arrived?

You're awake.

How long have I been asleep?
You didn't wake me up.

You looked so tired and slept so soundly.

So, I was reluctant to wake you.

Okay, see you next time.

Xu Lai.

Actually, I have always wanted to tell you…

Actually, it's nothing.

Go back and rest now.

Bye.

Good night.

Good night.

- Be careful.
- Alright.

Mark time, march!

Halt!

Left-face!

Right-dress!

Eyes-front!

At ease! Dismiss!

Yes!

You two. Come here.

Isn't Xu Lai usually here early in the morning?

How come I haven't seen her today?

What's wrong with her sleeping in?

I think she just can't take the hardship
and doesn't dare to come.

That's unlikely.

When we were removing the hornet nest yesterday,
Reporter Xu was pretty brave.

Come on! You're helping the outsider again.

You traitor.

Shall we make a bet? To see if she will come?

Then bet. What's the bet?

The loser cleans the trucks once tomorrow.

Deal.

I'll bet Xu Lai won't come.

Mr. Jin has already said it like that.

How brazen would she have to be to come again?

How bright the sun shines.

[Firefighting, Emergency Rescue,
Social Assistance]

Good morning, everyone.

Good morning, Mr. Jin.

Okay.

Mr. Jin, did you miss me?

Didn't I tell you not to follow us?

We're ready. Let's go.

Sir, sir.

Please save my grandpa!

My grandpa is stuck.

Please save my grandpa.

- Where is he?
- He's over there.

Dapeng, Shi Lei. Get the stretcher.

Liu Xu, Lu Fangqi.

Take the hydraulic cutter.

Go check the situation with me.

Will you take me there?

Alright.

Let's go.

He's here.

Capture this. This one.

Close-up on the victim. Less camera movement.
Steady the camera as much as possible.

Please help me.

Sir. Why did you get stuck here?

I was catching a chicken.

Y-You caught a chicken
even though you would end up like this?

These chickens

are all my treasures.

Money, you know.

Don't worry about me.
Help me catch the chickens first.

What are you planning to do?

We have to saw the railing open to save you.

- This is too close. I'm scared.
- Don't move your hands.

Sir, don't move your hands.

It's too close. I'm scared.

Don't be scared, Sir.

Sir, don't move your hands.

Don't be scared.

It's fine.

Dangerous.

Sir.

Sir, it's done.

I-It's done?

You can get out now.

I'm not stuck now.

Are you okay?

Get on the stretcher. Secure the neck.

Check for external injuries.

Yes.

Take your steps.

Hold on, hold on.

I-I want to get down.

Wait, Sir. What's wrong again?

I want to catch all my chickens back.

Sir, your neck became like this.

Leave the chickens alone.

Hurry to the hospital.

But they're all money.

Sir.

As for the chickens, we'll help you catch them.

And you go to the hospital, alright?

Keep your word?

Yes.

- Let's go, Sir.
- Alright, alright.

Let's go. Take care.

- Alright, alright.
- Let's go.

Sir. What are we…

Still standing here for what?
Catch all the chickens back.

Let's go.

- Help catch the chickens too.
- Okay.

Follow me.

I'm scared of chickens.

Let's go.

Sis, as something like catching chickens
is not a rescue priority,

we can skip it, right?

No. This part needs to be filmed well.

Film it.

What?

You've got your hat on crooked.

Sir. The chickens are all caught.

Let's return.

Yes.

Sir, there's one more chicken
we haven't caught.

It's stuck in a crevice and I can't get out.

- Where is it?
- Over there.

Take me there.

It's there. It's there.

The space inside is too narrow.

Using tools might hurt it.

How about this? Let me try it. My arm is thin.

Are you sure it's no problem?

With you here, no problem.

Got it. Kid. Here. Hold it.

This time, take good care of it, okay?

Thank you, miss. I'll take good care of it.

Good.

Let's return.

Yes.

Why is it all about Mr. Jin?

Of course.

Because he's the most handsome.

Actually, I'm quite handsome too.

When you produce the feature,

add me with a few more shots, okay?

No problem. Absolutely.

Thank you.

No worries.

Since you want to thank me, then do me a favor.

What is it?

I think my phone is broken.

Can I borrow your phone to make a call?

I'll take it as your gratitude.

Afterward, I'll often send you
messages to bother you.

I won't reply.

It doesn't matter. Someday you'll reply.

Oh my gosh.

Chasing chickens all morning.

I'm starving.

Time to eat, time to eat.

Hurry up and change clothes. Let's have lunch.

I'm starving.

Hello, leader.

Alright, coming back now.

Let's go. Back to the station.
There's a meeting.

Now?

Yes. What's the matter?

Sis, are you sure you want to
go back like this?

Right. I should wash up.

But there's no time to find a place to wash.

I have an idea.

Is anyone here?

No one.

Sis, are you really going in?

It's fine. They're all having lunch.
No one will come.

Luckily, I have a wash bag in the trunk.

Keep an eye for me here.

If someone comes, call me right away.

I'll be quick.

Sis.

Sis.

I-I have a stomachache.
I need to go to the bathroom.

Who's that?

I found catching chickens is
more tiring than saving people.

And I'm all covered in feathers. Oh my.

Look at Tao today.

Smelling like chicken poop.

Take a shower. Go, go, go.

Smelly all over.

Whose bag?

Help me scrub my back later.

Whose bag is this?

That Xu Lai must like our Mr. Jin.

Exactly.

When we were catching chickens just now,
her eyes never left Mr. Jin.

I think I saw their eyes meeting.

The chemistry.

Boom.

I just don't know if Mr. Jin can handle it.

Xu Lai.

A raging girl.

Stop mulling over it.
Hurry up and take a shower.

Maybe we'll have a mission shortly.

Alright, alright.

I'm telling you, that chicken-catching…

Still thinking about it?

Isn't that the TV station's cameraman?

Sis.

Yes. What is he doing here?

Don't know.

I… Sis… I… I… I, um…

Put it on. It's clean.

Thank you.

Sis, my stomach hurt just now.

So, I went to the bathroom.

The timing of your stomachache is just perfect.

After going to the fire station,

your taste has changed as well.

But it does match your temperament.

Right? I think so too.

This is a one-of-a-kind suit.

You can't buy it with money.

News, news.

Being new is the foundation.

In public awareness,
major news has a seven-day lifespan.

You're giving me a weeks-old hot topic
to stall me off?

Where's the innovation?
Where are the highlights?

And you guys even
call yourselves newspeople. Oh my.

Out of this bunch of topics,

only Jiang Xin's topic
is closely following topical highlights.

And it is basically up to standard.

You all should learn from her.

Leader, I have a topic too.

Are you interested in hearing it?

Let's hear it.

Okay.

What are you guys planning to do?

Sir. How can we save you
if we don't cut it open?

It is too close.

- Don't move.
- I'm scared.

A firefighter

in the eyes of the public

has always been a heroic image.

Actually, in news reports,

they often focus on

recording some of their bravery,
fearlessness, and spirit of sacrifice.

But I think,

the definition of a hero shouldn't

be determined by the danger coefficient.

What everyone sees now

is also their usual work.

Removing hornet nests for residents.

Helping farm owners catch chickens.

These things are unknown
and uncelebrated by the public.

But they still, for decades,

repeat these tasks every day.

So I think, those who can hold on

are the real heroes instead.

Only these somewhat embarrassing images

can prove

after shedding their crowned halos,

they're just a group of ordinary young people.

Therefore,

I want to use these
chicken-feather-covered images to tell everyone

firefighters are a group of ordinary people

and a group of ordinary heroes
who concern every little detail

and put themselves on the front line
in everything, be it big or small.

Xu Lai.

Why didn't you show us the topic earlier?

A very innovative angle.

We'll use yours for this issue.

I'll say Leader Qin is paying more and more
attention to Xu Lai.

Originally, Sis Xin had a chance
to be promoted to team leader.

Now, will she be replaced by Xu Lai?

Don't think you've won me
just by passing a featured report.

Your experience is insufficient after all.

If this featured report
doesn't arouse interest or gain views,

don't blame me, your senior,
for not giving you any advice.

Sis Xin,

are you afraid that
my featured report will be good work?

What do I have to be afraid of?

Murphy's Law says

'anything that can go wrong will go wrong.'

Oh, right,

do you know why
my featured report passed today?

Because I'm wearing a lucky suit,

which can block all the villains,

especially those who are unconvinced.

Hello, Mr. Jin.

I'm Xu Lai.

Thank you for today's help.

I'll wash the clothes and return them to you.

How's your waist injury?

Did you go for a re-examination
as I told you before?

Sir, if you really care about me,

let me run two fewer laps.

Asking you to run two more laps
is for your own good.

With better physical fitness,
you will have fewer mistakes on the job.

Fine.

Sir,

you seem to care about Reporter Xu.

Who said I care about her?

Speaking of Reporter Xu,

I think she is quite talented.

I thought she was just another pretty face.

Just going through the formalities
when she came to interview us.

Unexpectedly, she's quite impressive.

Running here and there with us these days.
Not pretentious at all.

You must be kidding.

How did she treat Mr. Jin before?
Have you forgotten?

I think you have some traitorous mind.

That's impossible.

My heart will always belong to
the Special Service Brigade One.

Belong to the brothers.

Belong to my favorite Mr. Jin.

Oh, I have good news for you.

Today, at the meeting,

the firefighter featured report passed.

It owes to you.

I'll treat you to a meal

another day.

Sir, the messages have been popping up
for a while. Won't you take a look?

Leave them alone. Spam.

Spam, huh?
