[ Episode 13 ]

4

Manager Li is still having you work this late?

5

This is clearly against the labor law.

6

I need to meet him.

7

What meeting? I volunteered. I'm willing to work late. I'm a good Chinese employee.

8

Since you said it today, I'll prove myself to you!

9

Good. Then I'll wait for the good news.

10

Lin Mochen, you arrogant prick,

11

wait and see.

12

Bye.

13

Can I come in?

14

Finished your video chat?

15

Seems like he's worried about you working here.

16

No way. He's by brother.

17

We have a good relationship. He's been keeping an eye on me since we were kids. That's why he has so many questions.

18

You can put aside the work for now. Let's go eat.

19

Eating is essential. I can't exploit you by violating the labor law.

20

Besides, what if your brother blame it on me?

21

It's too late to go out now. Let's eat here.

22

I have braised beef with brown sauce, seafood with XO sauce, and tomato beef.

23

What kind of express noodles do you want?

24

Smells good, right?

25

Did you choose to take on the project because you got mad for what Manager Cheng said, or because you liked it?

26

I'm not a kid anymore. Why would I do it because I was mad? Of course, I like it.

27

And I did the calculation. Here it is.

28

They've ordered 40,000 sets of flight attendant uniform.

29

Let's say one flight attendant will meet 50 customers everyday.

30

In that case, there are going to be 2 million people looking at the uniform I designed daily.

31

How awesome it is! I would be so proud!

32

You're this confident?

33

Then I support you.

34

Although it's a rough route, the future is bright.

35

Right. Although it's a rough route, the future is bright.

36

Do the noodles taste good? Can I try it?

37

- What about your noodles?

- I only got one left. And I gave it to you.

38

- Do you want it?

- What are you doing?

39

Let's do Rock Paper Scissors. Whoever wins can have it for 3 seconds.

40

OK. Let's place it in the middle and have a fair game.

41

- Rock Paper Scissors. Rock Paper Scissors

.- Rock Paper Scissors. Rock Paper Scissors.

42

So delicious.

43

- Again.

- Rock Paper Scissors.

44

That's a big bite.

45

I've noted the problematic parts with red lines.

46

You can take a look at the indemnity clause.

47

Have you noticed?

48

The content of their indemnity clause is half a page longer than the payment clause.

49

I've noticed.

50

Finishing up 40,000 sets of uniform within a month.

51

Even if we don't have the Mingsheng project,

52

it won't be possible for us to do it.

53

What if we go find some suppliers?

54

I've asked around. Most suppliers are working for Ning Weikai.

55

Even adding Wenda's remaining production power,

56

we still won't be able to catch up and finish the order.

57

If we have to take on the Ankada project,

58

it'll be like digging our own grave.

59

Manager Ning, you are in a good mood today.

60

Manager Chen, where did you go?

61

I've been to a few supplying factories.

62

Why didn't you just make a few phone calls instead?

63

Give us a break. You've signed contracts with so many suppliers.

64

You're not afraid that in the end, you can't get the Ankada order?

65

If New Baorui can't have it, then Simeiqi can.

66

If that's the case, I can just transfer these supplier resources to you.

67

Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden? I'm not used to it.

68

Manager Chen, don't forget. Simeiqi has always been New Baorui's ally.

69

Our mutual enemy is Aida.

70

Li Zhicheng got the rescue jacket project purely out of luck.

71

But he doesn't have the ability to take a big order like the Ankada project.

72

Aida can't take it. But Grace...

73

she can.

74

Grace?

75

I think she will do some small favors.

76

But speaking of investing real money,

77

a smart woman like Grace just won't do it.

78

Don't you know?

79

Grace has invested in Aida already.

80

Really?

81

I'm thinking about the consequence of

82

not bidding on Ankada.

83

You're worrying about Grace.

84

It's a problem indeed.

85

She got the project and arranged the negotiation.

86

Most importantly, it's her investment.

87

If you tell her you want to quit,

88

she might withdraw her investment.

89

Grace invested in Aida? Why?

90

Now thinking about it, I figure it has something to do with Li Zhiqian.

91

Li Zhiqian used to mention a girl.

92

He was encouraged by a girl.

93

But he didn't mention the girl's name.

94

Li Zhiqian had always wanted to start his own brand.

95

When negotiating on the You'a order, Grace was there as well.

96

I think Grace is the girl he was talking about.

97

Ankada is not Aida's only option.

98

What do you mean?

99

We can start a new brand.

100

Are you crazy? How can Aida start a new brand?

101

Aida has money and talent. Why not?

102

- But now...

- But what?

103

I need you to send me a feasibility report.

104

Now?

105

Right now.

106

And it has to be finished by May 20.

107

You can't just start a brand in such a hurry.

108

From my previous experience, as long as we stay focused,

109

nothing is impossible. Remember,

110

send me a feasibility report. Not an unfeasibility report.

111

So you're sure you want to give up the Ankada project?

112

No. Send the message.

113

Aida will officially participate in the bidding war.

114

What exactly are you thinking?

115

Aikda withdrawing from the Ankada competition can only be known between you and I.

116

Nobody else can know, including Lin Qian.

117

Even if that's the case, I don't believe Grace will invest so much in her lost love.

118

Manager Chen, you can spend so much money on a social media influencer.

119

For her lost love, why can't Grace

120

invest some money?

121

If that's the case, Manager Ning,

122

to fight against a woman with a dead man, you might not win.

123

What kind of nonsense is this?

124

Don't get mad. I'm talking crazy.

125

Don't act like I know exactly what's on your mind.

126

I've said it many times. I approached Grace

127

only out of my strategy.

128

No matter you did it strategically or out of your heart,

129

you've lost this time.

130

That might not be the case.

131

I don't know what President Wu was thinking,

132

having me come here for such a small shoot.

133

Thanks.

134

Sis.

135

Here?

136

OK.

137

Ziyue. Increase the field of view.

138

OK. I'll go now.

139

-Keep a close eye on the shoot.

- OK.

140

Grace.

141

Since I'm here today, may I have the honor to have a picture with you?

142

Sorry, taking pictures is not part of my work duty.

143

But don't worry, our photographers are very professional and experienced.

144

It'll definitely be worth your while.

145

Enjoy.

146

Wait. Excuse me.

147

What else?

148

I haven't got a chance

149

to explain to you about Aida's sample clothes.

150

Actually, it's my employee's fault.

151

He was doing it for me but he wasn't thinking about the consequence.

152

We didn't know things would turn out like this, so...

153

So you are not directly responsible for it?

154

OK. If that's the case,

155

I'm sorry for my impulsive move at the time.

156

No matter what, it's in the past. You don't have to explain more.

157

Anything else?

158

You're very interesting.

159

You remind me of a woman Li Zhiqian mentioned before.

160

If you want to talk about women,

161

I suggest you talk to President Wu about getting on next year's Women's Day special.

162

It suits you well.

163

I'll pass.

164

I only remember he told me that woman was like a cactus.

165

Although full of thorns from the outside,

166

but as gentle as water from the inside.

167

That's right. I am a cacutus.

168

So don't get too close.

169

Otherwise, I'll attack you with my thorns and have you end up like a hedgehog.

170

Cindy. Let's go.

171

172

Thank you.

173

You have to work hard on the Ankada's project, sorry.

174

Doing things I like is not hard work at all.

175

Aida may not have a big chance of winning the bid.

176

If we didn't get it, would you be disappointed?

177

Only those who have tried hard can talk about the results.

178

But as long as we do our best and not having any regrets,

179

it doesn't matter what the results are.

180

Go for it.

181

Morning.

182

She's here.

183

Let's sit.

184

Hurry.

185

- You just got here, but you want to eat...

- Stand up.

186

What are you doing?

187

Ma'am.

188

Manager Li asked us to learn from Ms. Lin.

189

Am I hearing it wrong?

190

You want us to learn how to make clothes from Lin Qian?

191

You're asking us to grab the needles with the hands that used to

192

grab guns. It's so unmanly.

193

Right. We got enlisted in the military right after college.

194

We've never done anything like this before.

195

That's right. Why don't you ask us to run 50 kilometers instead?

196

Right. Now we follow you into the clothing industry.

197

But we don't know how to hold embroidery needles.

198

So you will never learn?

199

Well, not that we don't want to learn...

200

We just can't hold embroidery needles...

201

We've never done it before. Never...

202

Stand at attention!

203

Stand at ease.

204

Although we are not in the troops anymore. As long as you're in this company, I'll still be your commander.

205

You have to follow my orders.

206

Now Aida's bidding on Ankada's project.

207

We are in the clothing industry now.

208

If we know nothing about the clothing industry, isn't it a joke?

209

You have to learn this lesson sooner or later.

210

Now Lin Qian is a perfect teacher.

211

It's a good opportunity, right?

212

But why do I think you've only told us half of the message

213

without telling us the other half?

214

Can you give us more details?

215

We just to get trained to do arresting, fighting, surviving in extreme environments,

216

and dismantling all kinds of weapons. We all got to do those things for the first time.

217

Now Designer Lin needs some help.

218

This is the difficulty. What do we do when facing a diffuclty?

219

We face it!

220

What do you mean?

221

You fools want to learn how to make clothes from Ms. Lin?

222

Fools?

223

How can you call us fools?

224

Whoever responds is a real fool.

225

Why are you still standing there? Sort out the fabric. Move.

226

- Don't move! Don't move!

-- Don't move! Don't move!

227

These fabric are all useful.

228

Don't move them. Put them back.

229

Put them back. Gather around.

230

Manager Li is not sending you rescue. He's making your life harder.

231

- Right.

- We can't even reason with them.

232

Right. I don't know what's going on...

233

Let me help you to shoo them away.

234

Don't.

235

Manager Li might did it out of a good intention.

236

Don't upset them.

237

You really want to learn?

238

We will overcome the difficulties and achieve victory.

239

We will devote ourselves fully to Aida!

240

Nice speech. Good job.

241

That's the spirit.

242

Manager Chen. This is the first round of selection of "Goddes in the Cloud".

243

Please go to the venue at 2 pm.

244

The filming crew and live crew are testing the equipment as we speak.

245

The event page has been created as you approved.

246

Good. You did a good job.

247

Manager Chen, thanks for the opportunity. I've learned a lot from this event.

248

That's right. It's you who gave us the inspiration.

249

So I hope you can take over the execution of the event.

250

This will be your main achievement this year.

251

Manager Chen, thanks.

252

- But...

- What?

253

You mentioned about the bonus...

254

Don't worry. I won't eat my word.

255

You've given us such a good inspiration.

256

Well, you can go shop with me in Danzi later.

257

You can choose any high-end purse you like.

258

Manager Chen, thank you.

259

This is sponsored by Xinyang app?

260

Yes. You can have it now.

261

Manager Chen, thanks.

262

Give it to me.

263

Can you at least give me a chance?

264

Why giving you the chance? Take my card.

265

I don't know if the one I like is on sale or not.

266

This is a bonus for you.

267

Since I've given my word, no matter how expensive it is, you will have it.

268

Manager Chen, thanks.

269

Where's the bag? It was here this morning.

270

Do you have any inventory?

271

Sorry, sir. The last one was taken by that lady.

272

Ms. Li. Such a coincidence. You're shopping alone?

273

I'm not surprised at all to see you

274

take your little sister to shop.

275

Isn't that so? Let me ask you something.

276

She wants to buy the purse you have. Resell it to me.

277

Why would I give the purse I like to you?

278

Manager Chen, so surprised to see you.

279

Manager Gu?

280

I thought Ms. Li was shopping alone. Turned out you're with her.

281

So your relationship is like...

282

None of your fucking business. Asshole.

283

I'm not here to fight you. Name a price.

284

Manager Chen. It's not very polite to do it.

285

Everything has a price.

286

I always get what I want.

287

Manager Chen, I'm so worried about your social skills.

288

Do you know who we are?

289

No matter how much?

290

Manager Chen, let's just...

291

Right.

292

I don't like this purse that much. Maybe we should resell it to him.

293

What about this price?

294

300,000 RMB. Final price.

295

How much?

296

Three hundred thousand.

297

This bag was only twenty or thirty thousand RMB. What you're saying is ten times that.

298

Didn't President Cheng just say that as long as we'd sell this,

299

there wasn't anything you wouldn't pay, right?

300

If this three hundred thousand is for something beloved, it's worth it.

301

President Chen, that's too...

302

Credit number?

303

It's here.

304

Delighted.

305

[ICBC credit card, 300,000 RMB]

306

There's what you wanted.

307

Thank you, President Chen.

308

To earn money you have to understand people. You know what a man's greatest weakness is?

309

Face [respect].

310

So, you plan to rely on men's weaknesses to earn money?

311

Young lady, to me that sounds a little dangerous?

312

What do you know? This is called a business mindset.

313

- Oh, no!

- What's wrong?

314

I left all my stuff in that new bag we gave President Chen; even my keys are in there.

315

- Hello. Who's this?

- President Cheng, please don't touch the stuff I left in that bag.

316

You already earned so much profit from me, what does the stuff inside matter? I'll treat it as mine.

317

Nonsense. My care keys are inside.

318

Keys?

319

Okay. You can get them at Si Meiqi in half an hour.

320

No, wait...hello...hello.

321

What did he say?

322

Go to Si Meiqi.

323

I just knew it.

324

Okay.

325

Simple, right?

326

Si...Simple.

327

Then, who will be first?

328

Report, Master Lin. Hui Xiong's fingers are very nimble. this type work suits him best.

329

Unified. Beautiful.

330

Then, here you go.

331

I'll try it.

332

Just you wait!

333

Be careful not to catch your hand.

334

[Beauty App]

335

Jinyuan

336

Hurry. You're up next.

337

- Where is President Chen? I'm looking for Chen Zheng.

- Chen Zheng?

338

The guy on this poster.

- You mean Chen Zheng?

339

President Chen is doing a live recording.

- How do get there?

340

Turn right just ahead.

341

Thank you. Excuse us.

342

Honored judges, hello. I'm number one.

343

My surname is Li. I'm called Li Goudan.

344

I'll be performing for you. Looking at the clothing I'm wearing,

345

you can all see.

346

Where did these contestants come from?

347

Good enough.

348

What kind of martial arts was that?

349

Master, this is a creative style martial arts.

350

I think that in this modern era, the most important thing is creativity.

351

And creativity is both variety and crosses borders.

352

Halloween isn't here yet. How about we take another look at you when then?

353

Old-fashioned understanding.

354

I'm number two. I'm called Xiao Shanzhu.

355

I'll be using a hip ukelele

356

to sing a song for you. Thank you.

357

♫ I've heard that you've never seen twenty-five thousand ♫

358

♫ If you don't try, you'll never know. ♫

359

Stop. That's like stepping on broken glass.

360

- Who will give me some ear plugs?

- How about you give us some blindfolds?

361

Next!

362

This is terrible.

363

Hello, masters. I'm contestant ten.

364

I'm a little fairy that everything on earth absolutely loves.

365

The performance I'll be doing is showing my skill playing the Xiao xiao.

366

Okay. Enough...Stop.

367

Older Brother.

368

Uh...is that a musical instrument or an instrument of torture?

369

Formal music can't be understood by the common people.

370

I don't want to understand you. Next!

371

He's being pretty harsh.

372

Honored judges, hello. I'm candiddate number five, Cheng Meizi.

373

I've prepared a dance for everyone.

374

Cheng Weizi...

375

This is pretty good.

376

Stop.

377

Leather boots, super-short skirt, crop top.

378

This young lady's figure is quite good.

379

But, why would you dress like some sort of hippie to participate in an electronic music event?

380

Also, if I'm not mistaken you've put on some sort of smoky makeup.

381

Is it to look like you've been hit?

382

I think it looks good. And it adds personality.

383

What you want isn't that important. What you like doesn't represent beauty, you know?

384

Hey, Qianyi, bring out a mirror so she can look at herself.

385

No. You don't need to do that.

386

Actually, your qualifications aren't bad. How about I just let you go.

387

- Look at yourself.

- Here, take this.

388

Look and see if you don't look overdone.

- What are you going to do. Jinyuan.

389

Hey, look at the woman beside you. She has an aura about her.

390

Whoa, Chen Zheng, you've gone too far.

391

This is a talent competition you yourself arranged.

392

Is it so you can make frivolous remarks about women; make personal attacks on them. Who do you think you are?

393

A lot of people came on stage today.

394

Then let me tell everyone about your great Judge Chen's true colors.

395

When this Judge Chen Zheng was in middle school, people gave him a nickname.

396

Jin Mu Shui Huo [the five elements of Chinese philosophy]

397

Why? He was so lame!

398

So people like him knows nothing about aesthetics and fashion.

399

He was puking nonsense!

400

Girl, in future, you can wear whatever you want.

401

Don't listen to nonsense from useless people like him.

402

He got a mirror to humiliate you?

403

Good. On point.

404

Where's the stuff?

405

I didn't expect you to remember my nickname after so many years.

406

Stop the nonsense.

407

Bye.

408

Let's go. Why are you staying?

409

Manager Chen, should we cut off what happened in post production?

410

Why cutting it off? Keep it. It's gonna go viral.

411

This...

412

Don't be stupid. Put it online, understand?

413

If we put it on too late, it won't trend anymore.

414

Got it. I'll work on it now.

415

My old classmate.

416

How can I repay you for doing me such a big favor?

417

There's nothing you want to tell me?

418

What is there to tell you?

419

Ning Weikai has got every small supplier on board and they're ready to roll.

420

Chen Zheng also found many channels to raise money and work on the reserve.

421

He also tried his best to expand the influence of the contest.

422

May I ask, what did you do over on your side?

423

Grace, you know everything.

424

About the Ankada project, if you have any new idea,

425

I hope you can tell me

426

Not like this, it's like you're hiding everything from me.

427

Actually, Ankada's project

428

is very profitable. But Aida can't process it.

429

So you want to quit the project?

430

you plan to give up?

431

Then why did you meet Chen Zheng?

432

The truth is, Aida wants to use Ankada as a cover.

433

we plan to produce our own brand.

434

So I can say you're taking advantage of me.

435

You're using me to stall Simeiqi and New Baorui.

436

Is that what you mean?

437

I originally wanted to find a more suitable time to say it.

438

Suitable time? If I didn't invite you out today,

439

when will it be a "suitable" time?

440

Grace, don't be mad.

441

You treated me like a chess piece.

442

In order to get the project for you,

443

I specially arranged an interview with Chen Zheng

444

and his daughter.

445

I've utilized all my connections for you. Now you're telling me it's a lie?

446

What should I tell my friends and my company?

447

You want me to tell them that all of us were used by you? Is that what you meant?

I was afraid to leak the information.

449

You do need tricks and strategies in the business world.

450

But you have to tell your business partners about your plan.

451

This is a basic trust issue.

452

If you don't trust your business partner today,

453

then I think

454

there's no foundation for us to cooperate.

455

I don't like people who don't respect me. So I'm sorry.

456

I've lost my appetite. Enjoy your meal. I'll go now.

457

It's my fault not to inform you as soon as possible.

458

Since the day the H Group invested in Aida,

459

Aida has stopped being your personal venture.

460

I have the right and duty to know every move and decision Aida makes.

461

If you keep being like this,

462

I may need to rethink our partnership.

463

Grace, it's my fault to hide it from you.

464

But I believe we can talk about it in a sensible way.

465

I believe you've also had moments that you had to pull some tricks when doing business.

466

It's not a betrayal. I was just trying to achieve my goal in a faster and better way.

467

My elder brother used to say in his letter to me:

468

He started the brand because you encouraged him to do so.

469

So I've always believed you also wanted Aida to start its own brand.

470

That's why I took the risk to do it.

471

♫ I gazed at you without being reserved. ♫

472

♫ I stopped hiding my obssession for you. ♫

473

- No.

- Why?

474

This is the hardest time for you to start a brand.

475

I have so many connections. Why don't you want my help?

476

You walked a long way, starting from getting ads and interviewing people,

477

to become the chief editor. How can you quit at this time?

478

I can take care of Wenda's matter.

479

But Wenda's design team all jumped ship to New Baorui.

480

How will you resolve it?

481

Grace. Listen to me.

482

You focus on doing your work well.

483

You don't have to worry about Wenda.

484

It's tough for every brand to start out.

485

But I have confidence. Trust me.

486

We can succeed.

487

But you've helped me a lot.

488

I really want to do something I'm capable of for you.

489

Is that ok?

490

♫ Dressed in a white dress, ♫

491

Listen to me.

492

♫ In your writings, ♫

493

♫ it's full of tenderness. ♫

494

♫ The night scene we were familiar with the most ♫

495

♫ Made us feel something new. ♫

496

♫ We've flipped through memories

497

we will cherish till we grow old ♫

498

The shrimp tastes so good. It's a full shrimp.

499

Why looking at me?

500

You're so cool today.

501

Of course. I always lend a hand when someone needs help.

502

Sometimes you can be so cruel when cursing someone. I kind of feel bad for Chen Zheng.

503

Stop the nonsense. You were cruel too when selling him that purse.

504

You look like a gentleman from the outside,

505

but you're truly evil from the inside.

506

I'm learning from the best. I turn red cuz I'm close to red stuff.

507

Come here.

508

What? Approach closer.

509

What?

510

What are you doing?

511

You said it, you're turning red cuz you're close to something red. I'm giving you two cinnabars.

512

Looks amazing.

513

Meizi, you're trending now.

514

When I tried to schedule a facial on Xinyang app,

515

I saw you on the headline.

516

The video about you being on the beauty contest sponsored by Xinyang

517

is all over my Wechat moment.

518

It doesn't matter if you like it or not. You like it doesn't mean it's beautiful, understand?

519

Qianyi, give her a mirror and let her take a look.

520

It's OK.

521

Actually, you have some potential. Otherwise, I would've let you go a long time ago.

522

No matter way, you've done something you want to do. I don't have that kind of courage.

523

Meizi. Come downstairs.

524

I gotta go. My dad asked me to go downstairs.

525

Dad, what's up?

526

What's the matter with the video?

527

- Well...

- Tell me!

528

My dream is to be a model. Nobody can stop me.

529

Including you.

530

Your dream? Your dream is to be humiliated by someone?

531

I know. You think I embarrassed you.

532

But such a small obstacle

533

means nothing to me. I don't care.

534

Even you don't care, I care!

535

I've raised you for 20 years. Did I do it to have you humiliated?

536

- Dad.

- I've told you, you can't be a model.

537

Why don't you listen to me?

538

Now you're humiliated. Happy?

539

Let me tell you again. This is the end.

540

This will be the last time.
