[Our Interpreter]

[Episode 4]

The morning will surely come, the darkness will vanish,

and thy voice pour down in golden streams breaking through the sky.

["Gitanjali 19" by Rabindranath Tagore]

After discussion at the meeting, we've decided to withdraw the complaint.

Sorry. The complaint can't be withdrawn.

Okay, I got it. Thank you.

- It's okay.
- Bye.

You shouldn't have made a complaint rashly.

The complaint can't be withdrawn.

Why?

I'll make a call to Huasheng.

It can't be withdrawn even if you make a call.

It's because the notice of punishment on Lin Xi's subordinate was approved.

Olad Xiao, now that you still love her, chase her bravely.

Lin Xi must dislike your PUA.

That's not what I meant.

You're so stubborn.

I want to withdraw the complaint because she helped me solve a big problem.

Says you!

I can't be bothered.

President Xiao, please come to the meeting room.

Something went wrong.

Recently, Translator 1.0 of Yuyi has been very popular.

Today I'll test on it.

Believe me and I'll tell you whether this translator of Yuyi is worth buying.

Please watch my video.

It's said in the "Finest of Ancient Prose",

"It takes courage to win a battle."

Let's listen how 1.0 translates it.

Husband's fight, courage.

The word "husband" is strange and groundless.

Well, maybe it can't understand the ancient Chinese prose.

Let's forgive its mistake this time and give it another chance.

This is a box of eggs.

On the box, it says, "Such health eggs come from hens fed with pollution-free additives."

1.0, it's your turn to show your ability.

- Green eggs.
- Green eggs. Its translation is unreliable.

- Green eggs.
- Green eggs. Pollution-free eggs became green eggs.

Everyone, do I still need to give other examples?

These facts prove that the translator of Yuyi is just rubbish.

What happened?

I don't know either.

This guy did a good job.

Old Xiao just said he would bring down the translation industry.

Now even the basic logic of his product is questioned.

These examples indeed prove the defects of Translator 1.0 skillfully.

So irrefutable. That's good. It's simply a sharp proof.

Rubbish Yuyi. They must feel greatly disgraced.

Come in with me.

He's targeting us intentionally.

Maybe.

Find him.

It's amazing, Xi-jie.

Originally, we all hate the Yuyi staff who disses us.

Finally, someone helped us vent our anger.

Good job.

You can still that?

How about the complaint against you?

It's heard you specially went to Yuyi for this matter.

You went to talk with them personally.

I guess it must have been withdrawn.

The company superiors plan to degrade your priority to C.

The notice will be made by the Administration Department. soon.

Really?

Xi-jie, please talk with the customer again.

I also didn't expect that I would delay the press conference due to food poisoning.

Food poisoning?

I've reminded you many times.

You should have a light diet

and closely monitor your physical condition the day before any important work.

You're not a newcomer.

I had food poisoning for some reason.

I bought a homemade cat food for our cats online,

but they refused to eat it.

I wondered whether it had any problem, so I tasted it myself.

It tasted good, so I ate more.

Your cats didn't eat it, but you…

You must be crazy.

Well, tell me how many times you've neglected your duties at the critical moment this quarter.

Only three times, including this time.

Only?

I'm curious.

What's important, your cats or work?

Xi-jie, I know I was wrong.

I didn't complete our company's performance last year.

You want to degrade my order-receiving level this year.

According to company regulations, if I fail to meet the KPIs within two years,

I will definitely be fired.

I'll be unable to keep my cats if I lose my work.

Xi-jie, please plead with the customer for me again.

Okay, I'll plead with the customer for you.

I ask him to make another complaint against you.

[Comments on the video]

[Hello, I'm Gao Damao from Yuyi Technology Limited. Can we meet?]

Read this.

What's this?

New project.

An invitation to the competitive bidding for Yuyi's IPO.

This is a big case.

I'd better not receive Yuyi's case.

Why?

I even failed to reach a dispute settlement with them.

Do you think they'll hand over their IPO project to me?

If I go, it'll ruin this chance.

Yuyi is indeed a difficult customer.

They have a low price weight for the target this time,

but have high requirements for personnel qualifications.

Do you know what this represents?

You're the Director of the Key Account Department of one top translation company in China.

If you can't win this order and even dare not fight for it,

do you know what the company superiors will think?

How can I support your work in the UN by the end of the year?

What you said makes sense.

But I insist on giving this chance to others.

Come back.

Lin Xi, I'm not asking for your opinion.

This is an order.

Did President Zhang force you to receive the invitation?

This is not his work style.

Xiao Yicheng spoke solemnly that he would bring down the entire traditional translation industry.

The headquarters superiors think he's too arrogant and want to teach him a lesson.

As a leader in the industry, we Huasheng must clarify our position.

So if we win the Yuyi's IPO order,

it'll become the best counterattack.

Do you receive it?

I have no other choice.

They pressured me with the matter of going to the United Nations.

Anyhow, go contact Yuyi personnel first.

Obviously, Xiao Yicheng wants to retaliate against me.

I said something... something unpleasant last time,

so I'm not suitable to go.

I need to start handling the matters about the agricultural product trading fair.

I will assist you in it.

Actually, I think you can tell him that you still…

The flowers are quite beautiful.

Xi-jie, I found the person you want.

Only add acquaintances.

Strangers and acquaintances can convert mutually.

Refusal is also communication.

Let's just talk like this.

So headstrong.

This is President Xiao.

I didn't cheat throughout the video.

It's your translator that failed to give accurate answers.

You're the head of Yuyi.

You can't solve the problems of your translator.

Will you decide to deal with me?

Let me guess.

Is it a PR document

asking me to delete the video or a legal statement

aiming to threaten me in the folder?

Take a look yourself.

[Employment Contract]

What do you mean?

The position of resources engineer is vacant in my company.

The resources engineer should promote the construction of voice and text data resources,

study language tonality, assist in optimizing products,

improve the performance of intelligent translators,

and enable them to present various languages more accurately.

As the founder of Yuyi, I hope you can join us.

I watched the video in which you tested our translator.

It's a success.

By classical Chinese modal particles, polysemous words,

and the logical thinking habits of Chinese and American grammar,

you put forward the problems of our intelligent translator accurately.

I think the key to solving problems is to identify them.

You are good at identifying problems and fully capable of taking this position.

Are you trying to recruit me first and then find a chance to retaliate against me?

Why do I retaliate against you?

Aren't you afraid that I'm the one sent by your competitor to attack you?

You're not.

No translator can accurately answer those three questions

you tested in an incoherent context.

Moreover, no one can match us at all.

You're so bumptious.

We've appreciated bumptious talents all the time.

A bumptious talent has become accustomed to these common things.

Cheng Yao, 26 years old, discontinued your studies

in Arabic Major at the Department of Foreign Languages, Xiahai University.

You've studied minor languages by yourself

and recorded seven knowledge videos on video websites, without showing your face.

And their clicks have ranked first among the knowledge videos until now.

And you are the only son of linguist Mr. Cheng Songbai.

Your stepfather is a well-known economist in China.

You had a thorough investigation of me.

Mr. Cheng, the salary column is still empty,

so just fill it out yourself.

[Salary]

You must have a rich dad.

You will become my company's inexhaustible mine in the future.

You're really outdated.

To be honest, I'm tempted.

But I have a condition.

If you can agree, I'll follow you.

Go ahead.

I just need you to make a statement to retract your previous erroneous viewpoint.

Machine translation

can never replace human translation.

That's it. Can you retract it?

You've gone so far.

Mr. Cheng, do you really think so?

Machines can help translate one language into another.

But the premise is that

both the speaker and the listener are machines.

But if both the speaker and the listener are persons,

machines can never replace the human brain for perfect expression.

This is not my personal opinion.

This is a fact.

If you don't even understand this point,

I suggest you switch careers as soon as possible.

Well said.

I also hope that this fact can be changed.

That's why we need talents like you.

Cheng Yao, we'll keep this position for you forever.

I'm looking forward to your coming.

President Xiao, he's rather arrogant.

Will you take your lumps?

[Yuyi Technology Limited]

We've waited for half an hour.

- Are you Manager Wei from Huasheng?
- Yes.

Okay. Please take a seat. Please take a seat.

I am Ma Xiaoli, a project manager of Yuyi.

But we made an appointment with Director Tong.

Director Tong still has a lot of matters to handle.

So I'll talk about the competitive bidding matters with you next.

Okay. Thank you, Manager Ma.

Tian-ge, I think Yuyi lacks sincerity.

We made an appointment with their operations director,

but she broke the appointment suddenly.

I think they lack sincerity in cooperation.

Director Tong is their operations director,

so Lin Xi should have come to speak with them.

So they asked Manager Ma to receive us.

Why didn't Lin Xi come personally?

No.

If they have a requirement for the contact,

why didn't Tong Xin agree to receive us in the morning?

Let me make a call.

Hello, Lin Xi.

You have to talk to Yuyi personnel yourself.

What's wrong?

Director Tong refused to receive me because of my low level.

How could this be possible? She agreed to receive you.

I guess Xiao Yicheng must have got mad again.

He's annoying.

What should we do?

Why don't you go yourself?

Why?

We're Party B, but we still have dignity.

I don't have time to see him put on a show of his bad temper.

Listen.

If you can't win this order, President Zhang will feel greatly disappointed.

Anyway, I have already entrusted you with this matter, so you should be responsible for it.

If you can't meet her in normal ways, you can think of other ways.

I…

Hello?

She…

It's okay. Let's go.

- Hello, President Tong.
- Hello.

Come in, please.

President Xiao, I already asked Xiao Ma to meet them according to your instructions.

But do you think Lin Xi will come personally?

They should observe the most basic etiquette in the workplace.

Yes.

But I think it's you who want to see her.

Old Xiao, we've been friends for years.

Tell me what you really want in your heart.

I just want her to know that she was wrong back then.

And then?

And then you hope that she can try best to come to you

and be together with you.

That would be letting her off too easy.

Be a mature man, okay?

Oh right.

Peter's teacher came to me and said he often bullies a girl in his class.

Okay, I'll talk with him tonight.

I talked to him.

He told me he likes that girl.

Then I told him if he really likes her, he should treat her kindly.

If he often bullies her, she will be scared away.

Get out.

Be a mature man.

[Best Employee of the Year Award Winner Lin Xi]

Yao-ge,

someone is looking for you.

Yao-ge.

What do you want?

The test video you made yesterday is purely speculative.

You Yuyi staff are so interesting.

Someone came to tempt me yesterday, but I refused.

So you're here to threaten me today?

Did someone from Yuyi meet you?

Aren't you from Yuyi?

In the video, you deliberately chose a sentence from a not commonly used ancient Chinese prose,

caused ambiguity in a specific context,

and pretended that the translator ignored the application of the scene

and left a logical loophole in the last question.

It's just a speculative act for you to win the translator.

Under normal circumstances, it can completely handle any daily scenes.

- And…
- And what?

And it could translate instantly.

It was faster than a human translator.

It's only a matter of time before intelligent translators replace human translators.

So what?

It doesn't know what faithfulness, expressiveness and elegance are.

Don't you like intelligent translation?

Surely, no one likes it. Machines may like it.

The cold expression is simply harm to human language.

Good.

Excactly what I think.

Let me introduce myself.

I'm Lin Xi from Huasheng.

It's you who added me on WeChat.

Now we're acquaintances.

Come to the point. Why do you actually come to me?

I've been working as a translator for many years,

so I fully understand your motivation for making that test video.

But your speculative act of making several test videos can't change anything at all.

Instead, you may help Yuyi publicize their product freely.

It sounds reasonable.

You are smarter than me.

No, I just understand your value.

So I would like to invite you to join the Huasheng Key Account Department as a freelance translator.

Huasheng has a platform, and you have the ability.

We can work for the beauty of language together.

Isn't this a plot of Yuyi?

He came to me yesterday, and you come to me today.

What a coincidence.

Why didn't you refuse Yuyi's invitation?

Because I yearn for freedom.

Besides, I refused the friendly forces. How can I surrender to the enemy?

- Because you can make a fortune.
- Do I look very poor?

So I didn't talk about the salary with you in the beginning.

A skateboarding young man prioritizes freedom.

Freedom in thought and speech.

They're as important as your life.

So I can promise you that as long as you join us,

I can enable you to fully embrace freedom,

from the soles of your feet to your soul.

You're silver-tongued.

I have another question.

How did you find this place?

Few people know this place

except for skateboarding lovers.

[New Friend List | Cheng Yao: Only add acquaintances]

[Lin Xi: Hi, I am Huasheng's Lin Xi | Cheng Yao: Only add acquaintances]

You are quite attentive.

Will you agree?

Wait a minute.

My last question

is very simple.

If you can stand on the board with both feet and slide for fifty meters,

I'll believe in your sincerity.

Are you afraid?

If so, how can I believe your company Huasheng has the courage to win AI?

If I make it, you agree to join us.

Okay.

Good. Good.

Yao-ge. She can do skateboarding.

Good. Good.

Did you do skateboarding?

When the Vans Park Series,

a top park terrain skateboarding competition in the world,

came to Xiahai, our team was responsible for its translation work.

To better express professional vocabulary, I learnt how to do this.

Look, a machine can't do this.

I'll wait for you to report on Monday.

Yao-ge, why do you lose your mind?

Do you fall in love with her?

No.

If you don't act, I'll go chase her.

- Let's go.
- Go. Go.

- Hello.
- What's up?

Have you met the Yuyi personnel?

I can't explain it clearly on the phone. Let's talk about it when we meet

Where are you?

I'll drop a pin to you.

The green soy beans they made taste good.

The peanuts also taste good.

Have you met DirectorTong?

And who is responsible for their bid invitation?

- Have you seen the responsible person? Is he good-tempered?
- You'll know it later.

Later?

Come on.

Old Xiao. Come back.

- The food here tastes good.
- What do you mean?

Come on. Take a seat first.

Take a seat.

Waiter, please add me a bottle of beer and a pair of bowls and chopsticks.

Come and taste this.

I love coming here in normal times.

Have a drink.

You two, I'm a rough fellow and not very sociable.

I invited both of you here today just to make something clear.

We Huasheng have attached great importance to your bid invitation.

Old Xiao, I don't ask why you two broke up eight years ago.

It's your personal grudge, right?

But you can't let it affect your work.

I don't understand what you mean.

Good.

I'll ask you directly.

Xiao Yicheng, let me ask you.

Anyhow, you won't allow Lin Xi to win this project, right?

Wei Tian, we entrusted an intermediary with the open bid invitation of our IPO.

The bid winner should be approved through the evaluation of our board.

You should win this order by your strength.

Undoubtedly, Huasheng is the best bidder.

- That's what you think.
- It's a consensus.

Is it?

Well.

First, your interpreter was absent before the press conference.

Your employees lack professional quality.

Second, I filed a complaint against you, but you tried your best to calm me down.

From beginning to now, your management haven't been aware of the seriousness of the problem.

Third,

you want to win our order,

but you sent your project manager
to meet our operations director,

breaking business norms.

Am I right?

Do you still think you're the best bidder?

But what worries me most is that Director Lin seems to think that

what I am doing now is a deliberate revenge against the then her.

I spent eight years proving that
your judgment of me was wrong.

But I never expected that you spent eight years

becoming a narrow-minded and short-sighted person.

Old Xiao.

Lin Xi.

Don't think everyone is still living in that small world like you.

I'm not who I used to be anymore.

I hope you are the same.

- Old Xiao.
- Wait a minute.

I apologize to you for the press conference.

I apologize to you for my presumptuous behavior.

We'll show you our real strength

and do our level best in your IPO project.

President Xiao, I also hope that you can see you are not the only one

who has become stronger in the past eight years.

No.

Why don't you stop her?

Let her drink.

Oh, your drinking capacity has improved in the past eight years.

Please sit beside me.

It's the safest to sit behind you.

- Thank you.
- Why don't you stay at home?

My dad has been in Beijing due to job transfer these years.

I have to stay alone if I go home.

It's good to stay at the hotel.

Papa.

Let's go.

You came back late.

I just finished work.

Can you read me a storybook tonight?

Of course.

Let's go.

Why didn't you invite her?

Who?

You know it well. So cruel.

Do you still have a feeling for her?

No.

If so, I'll encourage Xiao Ma to chase Director Lin bravely.

When Lin Xi waited for you in our company last time,

Xiao Ma fell in love with her at first sight.

Considering you were once a couple, I asked him to stay away from her.

Now I think my worries are unnecessary.

I hope Xiao Ma can chase her successfully.

Good. Let's go.

Are you all right?

I mean you saw that boy.

He is about six or seven years old.

It shows Xiao Yicheng forgot me as soon as he arrived abroad.

I don't think he's that kind of person.

But the fact lies ahead.

Come on. Let's not mention this.

I just meet him for work reasons.

Send the information about Yuyi to me.

I'll go meet Director Tong another day.

If you don't want to see him, I can handle it.

I'll go.

[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone | J. K. Rowling]

Mom, I'm wrong.

Peter, you may read foreign books, but your top priority is to learn Chinese.

Your Chinese is really poor.

Mom, why do I need to learn Chinese?

My baby, because you are Chinese.

Is it only because of so?

Baby, language is not only a tool,

but also a way of thinking and culture.

When you learn one more language, you can learn one more world.

Got it?

Okay, Mom.

I willMotherudy Chinese carefully.

My son is the best.

Drink the milk and go to sleep.

Be good.

- Hello, Xiao Ma.
- Director Tong.

President Xiao just called me and asked me to leave for Shandong tomorrow for dialect research.

I remember you planned to ask Sun Ming to go, right?

You know I have a new girlfriend.

I'm a programmer in my thirties. It's hard for me to date a girl.

Can you please discuss it with President Xiao?

No need. I can decide it.

Thank you. Thank you, Director Tong.

Xiao Ma, I should thank you.

Don't worry. Good night.

Xiao Yicheng, I finally figure out your true feelings.

Papa.

Let's go.

♫ I'm trying to get closer to you

♫ Distance is like a gradually
melting thin ice ♫

Who can fear too many stars, though each in heaven shall roll.

Too many flowers, though each shall crown the year?

That thou dost love me.

Though the word repeated.

Should seem 'a cuckoo-song,'

as thou dost treat it.

Beloved, I, amid the darkness greeted by a doubtful spirit.

Voice, in that doubt's pain, cry.

Speak once more-thou lovest!

Who can fear too many stars, though each in heaven shall roll.

Too many flowers, though each shall crown the year?

Say thou dost love me, love me, love me.

Toll.

The silver iterance!

Only minding Dear,

to love me also in silence with thy soul.

Why did you recite it so affectionately?

Because I only have you, my love, in my heart.
