Our Interpreter

Episode 8

- What's wrong?
- Hello, Xi.

The International Culture Office is urging us to deliver the script
of the "Night of Arabic Poetry".

But I can't reach Cheng Yao.

When is the deadline?

I told him it must be submitted
at 9:00 tomorrow morning.

Chen Wen, is this your first day at work?

How many times have I told you

not to directly tell translators
the client's deadline?

You didn't even leave time for proofreading.

Yeah, sorry about that, Xi.
It wasn't intentional.

- What do we do now?
- What should we do?

Calm down those from the
International Culture Office first,

then find Mr. Xu from the Translation Dept.

Have him review the manuscript and
estimate how long it will take to re-translate.

Prepare a backup plan. I'll go find Cheng Yao.

Okay. Bye.

Cheng Yao.

I know you're in there.

What are you doing?

Where's the manuscript?

It's not done yet.

It's not done yet or
it's not translated yet?

I've translated it.

Show me.

It's still not good enough.

Mr. Xu, sorry to bother you.

Our freelance translator
encountered a problem. Can you help us out?

What are you doing?

Thank you.

Mr. Xu, he has already
translated this a while ago,

but he's not satisfied.
Can you help him think of a solution?

I've read it.

It's not bad.

I rarely see such precise
translation of Arabic poetry.

Every word and phrase
is carefully considered.

But, Mr. Xu, this article
tells a sad love story.

It uses an ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic word that I can't translate precisely
however hard I try.

I even checked the 2010
International Poetry Translation Forum's discussion on this word.

But I still can't translate its visual beauty.

You know what I mean?

The shape of this word is equivalent
to the modern English letter "w".

The meaning of this section is something like

"like Zhuang Zhou's dream as a butterfly,
this feeling makes me feel lost".

We can treat it as a vague phrase.

Like Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly,

this feeling makes me feel lost.

That's the meaning.

You're amazing, Mr. Xu.

I'll keep it in mind.
Let me write it down.

Thank you.

Mr. Xu has mastery of words.

It's like a sudden enlightenment.

Compared to him, I am much worse.

You finally admit you're not that good?

You really know how to switch
from arrogance to self-doubt.

It depends on who I'm with. To you, I'm arrogant.

Alright, since I misunderstood you today,

I won't argue with you.

Mr. Cheng, I was wrong and misjudged you.

I'm sorry.

Forget it. I'm a forgiving person.

You're really arrogant enough.

But I also hope you learn from this incident.

Remember, "done" is better than "perfect".

For language, without beauty, there's no life.

I'd rather not translate
something without life.

Agreed.

But before, you were a lone wolf, handling everything on your own.

And now that you're in Huasheng,
you have a whole team fighting alongside you.

That's an accident.
Please keep today's incident a secret.

Boom.

Thanks to you, I have to take
sleeping pills tonight to fall asleep.

Don't rely on sleeping pills.

You need a good routine for a healthy body.

Sir.

I visited clients in the daytime

and help you with the script in the evening.

It's already late at night.

It'll be around 2:00 or 3:00 a.m.
when I can finally lie down.

I have another full day of work tomorrow.

I have to sleep early
to maintain a good state.

Forget it. You're still young,
you don't understand.

You're only a few years older than me.
Don't act older than you are.

Just go to sleep and if you have any
questions, message me via WeChat.

Goodnight.

What a kid.

Which one do you prefer,
me now or in the past?

You didn't cook before.

That's because you cooked for me.

There have been so many
misunderstandings between us.

I don't hope there's one more
after I just removed one.

Why did you come?

I came to check on your foot.

When did you come?

I just arrived.

What did you dream about earlier?
You were laughing so happily.

Nothing.

No.

This must be a dream.

♫ There are countless possibilities
for the future ♫

♫ To participate or withdraw from your life ♫

It feels so real.

Is it real?

Looks like I should give you
a more realistic experience.

♫ Can you not stay silent? ♫

♫ Share more with me ♫

What's wrong?

It hurts.

♫ And you will have me ♫

Ouch,

my stomach hurts.

Hurry up. Cheng Yao.

I'm counting down from ten. You better come out.

Five seconds left.

Xi.

Your stomach hurts?

How about you use my restroom?

I'm fine. No need.

Damn Xiao Yicheng, it's your fault.

Cheng Yao, hurry up.

What's wrong?

It's smelly...

Look at you.

I always use the restroom at this
time every day. Why is she so angry?

You don't understand.

During their period,
girls have stomach pain

and bad mood.

Listen. Don't provoke her. Understand?

How is your project going?

It's not going well. It's so hard.

Lin Xi. Wait! Wait a moment.

Take the next one.

- No, no, no.
- Take the next one.

Grandma is right.

Women during their periods
have such a bad temper.

Are the materials
for the Agricultural Trade Fair ready?

And the minor languages part, have you done it?

There are some Slavic languages. I've communicated with Cheng Yao already.

How about you go to the hospital?

I intended to make an exception
and keep Cheng Yao at the Key Account Dept.

But Selena from the Minor Languages Dept lodged a complaint with Mr. Zhang.

If we fail this bid,

it's likely that my chance
to go to the UN is gone.

So, it's up to you for
the Agricultural Trade Fair. It's a heavy task.

I've confirmed with my friends already.

Charlie is definitely attending.

Didn't you say you were too busy to get sick?

What's wrong?

I had spicy food with a client.

What?

Weren't you avoiding
spicy food for a long time?

And Yuyi is about to release the
bidding documents. It's a big deal.

Which client would still
make you eat spicy food?

Xiao Yicheng?

Did you already know that
he and Tong Xin aren't a couple?

- Why didn't you tell me?
- You didn't ask me.

You're really clever.

Mr. Bao, you've been preparing
for the bidding conference, right?

So this time, you came for...

Then I will just get to the point.

As one moves up,
water seeks its own level.

President Wang from Yongyun said if Yuyi entrusts this project to his company,

he will give us a good kickback.

What good kickback?

He has promised to use half of the bid
opening price to complete the project.

And as for the rest,
you can give him an account.

He will handle it.

Of course, if you don't trust him, cash is also acceptable.

Yongyun is willing to provide a kickback?

That's not precise.

It's your hard-earned fee.
That's what you deserve.

Mr. Bao, if he offers such a low price, how can he guarantee the quality?

I think in fact, the quality can be guaranteed.

Right?

If you're worried about this,

we can consider Jieyin or Jitianyu.

But I must remind you that
Yongyun offers the highest kickback.

Really?

How about Huasheng?

Forget it.

You know what?

Two years ago, a worker named Lin Xi
from their Key Account Dept.

directly told the client
about the agency company's kickback thing.

She was so clueless.

So, what do you think?

Mr. Bao.

Please leave.

What do you mean?

Mr. Xiao, according to
your instructions earlier, the bidding web has been launched.

All the eligible companies
will submit their bid proposals to our email,

and we'll screen them ourselves.

Okay.

What do you mean?

Mr. Bao, some people
start a business for money,

but most people start a business

for something you don't have.

What is it?

Farewell.

Mr. Bao, please.

See you.

The board of directors is questioning
the direct release of the bidding items.

It seems that Mr. Bao
has put in a lot of effort.

Trouble.

No worries.

It'll be solved in the end.

Yuyi has announced the bidding matters.

Let's gather for a meeting.

Apart from the Agricultural
Trade Fair project this quarter,

our department also needs to
prepare for the bidding of Yuyi's project.

So I have made an application
to Mr. Zhang to ask you guys for help.

You are all the elite of
your respective departments.

I hope that this time, everyone
can cooperate and win this project.

Okay.

Take a look at the materials.

The first page is the brief, and the rest are client-related materials.

Although we have already
had preliminary cooperation with Yuyi,

we need to go through it again.

Chen Wen,

you will be responsible for consolidating
and organizing the questions that need to be discussed with the client.

Please email them to me and copy everyone before the end of the day.

Okay.

Wei Tian, you coordinate with Yuyi and go through the work report
with them tomorrow.

Sure, no problem.

Shasha, Wang Qiang,
you will assist Wei Tian.

Okay.

The rest of you, prepare for the brainstorming
session tomorrow afternoon.

Within this week,
we must come up with a preliminary plan.

Okay.

Okay. Let's work hard during this period.

We will definitely win this project.

- Okay.
- Okay.

You already knew that Yuyi was going to cut off the agency company
and go for direct bidding.

If Yuyi doesn't get rid of Mr. Bao,
Huasheng will have no chance.

But you were already preparing.

Just a guess.

Bao always wants to profit
from those he cooperates with.

I guess Xiao Yicheng won't work with him.

Oh, Mr. Zhang asked me to tell you that although Huasheng has
strong business capabilities,

our focus has not been on poetry.

He asked you to socialize a bit.

Please tell Mr. Zhang that shortcuts only lead to dead ends.

I knew you would say that.
I already told him.

Considering the circumstances, you'd better go see a doctor.

I can endure it.

Hello, I'm Chen Ji
from the South China Heart Association.

I have an appointment with Ms. Lin
this afternoon at 2 o'clock.

Alright. Professor Chen,
please come this way.

I have collaborated with Professor Zhou
from the Department of Neurosurgery

and Professor Han
from the Department of Plastic Surgery.

But they have always chosen
senior translators from our Translation Dept.

Why did you choose Tan Shasha
from our department?

Because I had a chance encounter with her,

and during our chat,
I found out that her father is a medical professor overseas.

So, from a medical perspective, Miss Tan is definitely better than others.

I want to thank you for
confirming my subordinate's ability.

However, our Key Account Dept.
has specific procedures for accepting projects,

and I'm afraid we cannot help with this one.

But our colleagues
in the Translation Dept. are excellent.

They will definitely be able to assist you.

Ms. Lin, I have a personal reason as well.

Miss Tan and I have similar personalities.

This will reduce our communication costs

and allow us to complete
the translation faster and better.

I understand.

But the company has its own regulations.

We can only accept clients
assigned by the Key Account Dept.

Please don't put me in a difficult position.

- Xi...
- Ms. Lin.

- Well. I'm sorry.
- What's the matter?

There's an urgent document
that needs your confirmation.

[Bidding Document Volume 2 (Copy)]

Are you a medical advisor
for Enjiu Pharmaceutical?

Yes.

Call Shasha over.

Okay. Please wait a moment.

Lin Xi.

Professor Chen.

Miss Tan, nice to meet you again.

Hello.

Please have a seat.

You know each other,
so I won't introduce you.

Professor Chen has an academic paper that he wants you to translate.

When is the deadline for this translation?

I'm hoping to publish it in
a medical journal in the UK,

so the deadline should be
on the 20th of next month.

I'm sorry, but I can't accept it.

Is there any problem?

Translation, proofreading,
and communication with you,

the time is not enough.

In that case,

I trust my decision even more.

Don't worry about the deadline.
I can delay it to the next issue.

If you can't finish it before the
next deadline, I can delay it again.

Let me put it this way.

Miss Tan, you seem to be refusing,

but you're actually taking
your work very seriously.

Ms. Lin, I believe this job
is perfect for Miss Tan.

How is it?

Do you dare to accept this challenge?

Thank you for your trust.
I will do my best.

Great. If you have any questions,
feel free to contact me anytime.

- Okay.
- Thank you, Ms. Lin.

- Hope we have a nice cooperation.
- I hope so.

Let me see you off.

- Please stay.
- Never mind.

What are you busy with now?

Writing the weekly report,
editing the newsletter, and preparing for the meeting materials.

Chen Wen, book a high-speed train ticket
for Shasha to Taiyuan the day after tomorrow.

Why?

What?

Why did you suddenly change your mind and allow me to attend
the Agricultural Trade Fair?

Because I suddenly found out that maybe I underestimated your ability.

For example?

For example, I was worried that your straightforwardness

and your way of thinking might offend clients.

But maybe some clients will appreciate a translator like you.

I thought you were trying
to retaliate against me.

Retaliate against you for what?

Because of Grandpa.

Because he favors you,
so I suppress you at work?

Sorry.

I wouldn't do that
unless suppressing you could increase my salary.

could increase my salary.

- You...
- Watch less palace dramas and focus on your work.

Some palace dramas
were translated by masters.

- What's wrong?
- The school's Academic Affairs Office

couldn't find you in the list
of outstanding graduates,

so they called me to get your contact
information. Can I give it to them?

Sure, that's fine.

You invited Lin Xi to dinner?

Yeah.

- She can't eat spicy food.
- She can.

No, she can't.

After she joined Huasheng, she gave up a lot
of things to ensure her condition the next day.

Is she okay?

Gastroenteritis.

She's busy working on your bidding documents and refuses to take a rest.

I have a meeting to attend, I gotta go, bye.

- Mr. Xiao, there is a document...
- Put it there.

What's so urgent?

- Mr. Xiao.
- Come down.

What's up?

There's something important.

Get up if needed.

- Hello.
- Hello.

I had an appointment with Lin Xi.

Please wait a moment.

Mr. Xiao, hello. Please come this way.

- Okay.
- This way, please.

This way.

Mr. Xiao, it's an honor to have you here.

- Mr. Zhang.
- Take a seat.

Lin Xi said you visit our company for an important thing.

So I pushed out miscellaneous things.

What's the matter?

Yuyi's bidding process
doesn't involve an agency company.

So, I wanted to visit Huasheng
to gauge your interest in bidding.

We are actively preparing
for your company's bid.

We've already conducted
the mobilization meeting and are currently working on proposals.

Mr. Xiao.

It's nothing.

Is she feeling unwell?

No.

- What's the matter?
- Xi.

My apology.

- Mr. Xiao.
- Let me see.

Our strength is undeniable.

I can confidently say that we are the
No.1 of the translation industry in China.

That is Cheng Yao, a minor language expert
in Lin Xi's department.

The minor language expert, Cheng Yao.

I know him.

Since you also know
Cheng Yao,

I believe that you must have full confidence in Huasheng.

Sorry for the interruption.
I have a meeting to attend.

Go ahead.

I have to go.

Mr. Xiao, Yuyi...

Go to the hospital with me.

By the way, Lin Xi, Mr. Ding hopes
that you would attend the meeting.

Sorry, Mr. Xiao.
I have another meeting.

If there are any problems,
feel free to contact me anytime.

- I won't send you off.
- Then you...

- Hello.
- Boss, bad news.

The board of directors came
to question us for firing the agency company.

Calm them down. I'll be right back.

If Yuyi entrusts this project to his company, he will give us a good kickback.

If you're worried about this, we can consider Jieyin or Jitianyu

But I must remind you that Yongyun offers the highest kickback.

As long as...

This is the reason you requested.

Now the bidding is imminent.

We need to approve the bid documents
according to the procedure.

The bidding meeting may not be held.

So we need to handle it flexibly.

In this case, we have no choice.

But with no more agency companies,

who will organize the supplier directory?

Who will review the qualifications?

Yes, this is difficult.

Who will be responsible for this?

Mr. Liu. You are the head of the Procurement Dept.

What do you think?

We all have projects to handle.

It's difficult to coordinate this suddenly.

What should we do?

Alright.

I'll take care of it.

You're crazy.

This is a critical phase for the 2.0 version.
How can you find time for this?

It's my decision.

I'll take responsibility.

Mr. Xiao, here you are.

- Put it behind.
- Okay.

Mr. Xiao.

You've been busy for so long.

You only eat this?

I have an appointment with
the next company at 3:00 pm.

Let's have something nice to eat
once work is done.

But this clearly isn't our job.

The Procurement Dept. is clearly avoiding it.

If necessary, the CEO's office can
also provide temporary assistance.

Why do you have to do this yourself?

Can't you see it?

Whether it's the Procurement Dept.
or the CEO's office,

Bao and his partners are
keeping an eye on them.

Our ultimate goal is the IPO.

A little hardship during the proces
doesn't matter.

You go back first. I'll drive myself.

Isn't the next appointment at 3:00 pm?

Your parents came to visit you, right?
Accompany them around.

Mr. Xiao.

Get off.

Shut up.

Then I'll leave. Take care of yourself.

Ling Feng.

Why are you so down?

Did Xi not agree to your request?

I don't understand.

I queued up for so long
and bought delicious food to please her.

I even lowered my head.

Besides my cat, I've never been so submissive.

And she still didn't agree.

That's weird.

Xi has always valued you.
Why wouldn't she agree?

Maybe she found someone new
and forgot about the old.

Do you mean Cheng Yao?

Mr. Zhang values Xi a lot.

If she's willing to plead for me, I'm sure I can come back.

You really don't appreciate what you have.

I wish we could switch our jobs.

Okay. Let's switch. I'm willing.

Isn't the Translation Dept. good?

It has flexible working time and not much work.

You don't need to travel around.

And you don't need
to write endless slide presentations.

You have a lot of resentment, huh?

It's not resentment.

It's just that the workload is so huge that it completely compresses my personal life.

It's not fulfilling.

You're so laid-back. Does Xi know?

I dare not let her know.

Forget it. Let's not talk
about disappointing things.

You won't work overtime tonight?

Yes.

I stayed up all night to finish my assignment.

It's the first time you invited me
to an offline cat lover event.

I'll definitely be there on time.

Waiting for you.

Get off work.

Xi.

Did you check the document
you sent me earlier?

Yes, I checked it.

Are you sure?

Yes. I checked it multiple times.

There are obvious errors on the first page.

What's the date today?

March 13.

The document says February 26.

Okay. Xi, I'll fix it right away.

Do you think it's just a date,
no need to make a big deal out of it?

Leave after you finish your work.
Go off work.

Xi, I sent it to you.

Check this document
from beginning to end again.

- But I've already checked it.
- Really?

There are still basic errors.

What's wrong? Don't want to do it anymore?

Even if you resign now,
please check this document

from beginning to end clearly and thoroughly.

After confirming that there are no errors,
send it to me again.

Otherwise, when they do
a background check for your next job,

don't expect me to speak well for you.

Feeling wronged?

You can cry if you want.
I'll give you thirty seconds.

Xi, I...

I worked until midnight
to finish this document.

I got up early in the morning
and checked it again.

I also checked it in the afternoon
before sending it to you.

The date error was due to my carelessness,

but you can't dismiss my work
just because of one date error, right?

Ten seconds left.

Look here.

It should use a half-width comma,
but you used a full-width one.

And also, how many times have I told you

to adjust the font size to 12pt
and the line spacing to 18?

This is the most comfortable reading distance.

Do you think what I said is trivial?

Xi, I didn't graduate with a secretarial major.

Details determine success or failure.

Understood.

You can leave now.

Goodbye, Xi.

Hello. What medicine are you looking for?

Stomachache or diarrhea?

Both.

Both? Is it for you?

How long have you had diarrhea?

Is it because of catching a cold
or eating something bad?

About two or three days.

Diarrhea, due to eating something bad.

How many times a day do you have diarrhea?
Is it watery or formed?

Is it smelly?

- Not me.
- Not you?

Then how old is the patient?
Male or female?

Female, 29 years old.

29.
Is it to buy medicine for your wife?

Then you should call her immediately.

The medicine needs to be
tailored to the symptoms.

Forget it.

I'll take one of each.

- Sir, here is your medicine.
- Thank you.

Thank you.

I suggest adding one more of this.

Severe diarrhea is prone
to cause hemorrhoids.

You should help her apply it twice a day. It's cooling.

It's cooling.

No, thank you.

It's a free gift for
purchases over 300. Take it.

Thank you.

Hello. I'm Deliveryman No. 3716.

Hello.

Thank you.

Wei Tian, how about we have a drink?

Coming.

Coming, wait a moment.

Hello, is Miss Lin Xi here?

I am.

This is a flash delivery for you.

Who is it from?

He just asked me to deliver it.

No.

Who bought them?

Who?

Flash delivery.

This, I didn't buy them.

Did a friend buy them for you?

Even my friends don't know this address.

They usually only send things to the company.

Then let me check it.

During this tender period,
the package is too dangerous.

Diarrhea-releasing tablets,

stomach-recovering capsule,
Metronidazole tablets.

No wonder you refused to admit
you bought them yourself.

It's just a hemorrhoid cream.

It wasn't me.

- I've told you.
- Can you understand Chinese?

I didn't buy them.

Getting hemorrhoids is not a big deal.

It makes sense.

What's the matter?
You had to call me over late at night.

Besides not eating spicy food, what else has she changed?

Do you mean Lin Xi?

She doesn't eat spicy food, or lie in.

She likes exercise, and only wears clothes in black,
white, and gray.

Oh, by the way, she doesn't
sing Karaoke anymore.

I remember you two
used to sing Karaoke often.

You called me over so late
just to ask this?

Who sent this to me? Come claim it.

Not me.

Not me either.

Xi. Could it be someone
who has a crush on you?

Is it someone trying to poison you?

Yeah. Given the current situation,
it's hard to say.

Ling Feng, you're no longer in our department.

Please voluntarily exit the chat group, okay?

Did you buy Lin Xi medicine?

No.

I didn't.

Damn it!
