=Young Babylon=

Why is there only one screen working,

while the other three are black?

(No Signal)
Actually, there are cameras in these places,

but you know the situation in the factory now.

There aren't many workers in the factory,

and they don't have much money,

so

there's no money to repair them.

It's okay. This one will do.

We can see the entrance to the cold storage.

Oh, right.

Someone just went in.

Let me replay it.

I've watched it so many times,

and I can recognize all the hundreds of

employees in our factory,

but I still

don't know who he is.

You two, take a closer look.

See if you recognize him.

Who is it?

Lu Xiaolu?

How did you get in here?

I have a spare key
that I forgot to give you.

Now it's come in handy.

Look there.

The person who injured Master Niu

should be tall.

How dare you hit my dad!

I'll teach you a lesson.

Open the door.

Open the door!

Let me try.

What's wrong?

It seems to be locked.

No signal here.

Let me check.

Do you have it over there?

No.

Look.

A footprint.

This is different

from the other footprints.

This is a tactical boot.

There are hardly any people
in the factory who wear these.

They're too bulky.

Usually it's those hooligans on the streets

who wear them.

There's even a crack in the middle.

These boots are really old,

probably left by the culprit.

You understand street matters better.

I'll take a picture first.

Okay.

What are you doing?

Put this on,

don't get cold.

Have you ever thought about

what the person who injured Master Niu

was trying to achieve?

Master Niu has been opposing
the resumption of work.

So the person who injured him

is trying to threaten the workers

to resume work quickly.

If that's the case,

then I should be the prime suspect.

You are right.

But who's the second suspect?

Do you still suspect Huang Qing?

Isn't he worth suspecting?

I don't think it's him.

You trust him so much?

After I left school,

I had nowhere to go.

He took me in.

At that time, I hadn't seriously
studied economics.

Wanting to make my mark

in the industry

was like dreaming.

He taught me,

guided me

through each project,

that's how I got to where I am today.

If it weren't for him,

I would have given up long ago.

So,

he must be very important to you.

Yeah.

I understand.

I once had someone

whom I trusted unconditionally.

You should take it back.

I don't need it.

I can handle the cold.

It won't hurt me.

It might

hurt you instead.

If you freeze to death,

who will take care of this mess
of the factory?

No one should freeze.

Let's go out together.

We're both so lucky,

neither of us will freeze to death.

Bai Lan, Bai Lan, are you there?

- Bai Lan.
- Yes, I'm here.

- Be careful, be careful!
- Oh my god!

Xiaolu.

Who locked the door?

Xiaoying called and said Bai Lan is here,

she asked me to let her out.

- Xiaoying?
- I've scolded her thoroughly.

Alright.

Send her back quickly.

- Just go.
- You can take it back now.

Let's go.

- Are you alright?
- I'm fine.

Feeling cold?

Put on your coat.

=Episode 22=
=A Bet on Tomorrow=

You've run enough?

Tired now?

I really can't understand,

you were locked in the cold storage
during the day,

and then come out at night
to run and sweat.

Are you trying to get yourself killed?

Here.

Wear this.

I really don't understand.

What happened in the warehouse?

What did Bai Lan do to you?

Little Pouter told me that

you two have become close again.

Old feelings rekindled?

It's time to stop.

Stop what?

You know, I've never

been able to let her go
in these five years.

I've always regretted

leaving her like that.

But she's doing well now,

and she has someone to take care of her.

It's time to let go.

You two are really over?

Yeah,

it should have ended long ago.

Let's go!

Are you okay?

Lyu told me

you were trapped
in the cold storage today,

are you okay?

Nothing serious,

just caught a chill.

This can warm you up.

Thank you.

I needed this.

I heard Lu Xiaolu was there too.

Did he cause you any trouble?

Not at all,

in fact, I'm glad he was there.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have managed alone.

He's your ex-boyfriend
from back then, right?

Yeah.

Looks like he still

has a significant impact on you.

No, not really.

I don't want him

to affect your judgment.

You seem tired lately.

Why don't you take a break?

I can't.

I want to finalize the cooperation

with the Italians as soon as possible,

turn around the situation in the factory,

and calm the workers' emotions.

That's the priority.

I've made up my mind.

Once Master Niu recovers,

I'll arrange for Mr. Mancini

to meet with the key people in the factory.

This will boost confidence on both sides.

Didn't you say Fucheng was beautiful?

I've been busy working since I arrived,

and had no time to explore.

Why don't you show me around tonight?

Alright.

You've been here before?

A long time ago.

Stop it, Dad will take you
to the amusement park.

Thank you.

I mean...

Doctor Bai?

When did you come back?

This is my wife.

She used to work at our food factory too.

Nice to meet you.

This is my son,

his name is Kaixin.

Come on, say hi to Auntie.

Hello, Auntie.

This is my boss.

This is

my old colleague from the food factory,

the office secretary,

Secretary Bi.

Bi Zhigang.

A colleague from the food factory, huh?

Yes.

You are surnamed Bi.

Is Vice Mayor Bi of Fucheng

related to you?

He's my father-in-law.

What a coincidence.

I met him yesterday.

Sorry,

I don't know him well.

Alright, come on, Kaixin,

say goodbye to Uncle and Auntie.

Dad will take you to the amusement park.

Goodbye.

Let's go.

Dad heard

there's a new toy at the amusement park,

and they have cotton candy too.

Do you want it?

After knowing you for so long,

it's the first time I've learned

you like horror movies.

I have many surprises.

(Lu Lan)

Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to the New Century Grand Theatre.

I am Fucheng's famous prince of love songs,

Lu Xiaolu.

Today, I will dedicate my
premiere performance on this stage

to the beautiful lady in the audience,

Bai Lan!

High above the silvery ocean,

winds are gathering the storm-clouds.

And between the clouds and ocean,

proudly

wheels the Stormy Petrel,

like a streak of sable lightning.

It's the storm!

The storm is breaking!

Still the valiant Stormy Petrel

proudly wheels among the lightning,

over the roaring, raging ocean.

And his cry resounds exultant, like a prophecy
of triumph--

Let it break

- in all its fury!
- In all its fury!

Bai Lan,

will you join me

as a lifelong member of this theater?

Let's watch movies together

and grow old together.

(Lu Lan)

(Director's Office)

Why?

My negotiation with Mancini
went pretty well,

why did he suddenly change his mind?

The food factory can't provide

the sales channels they're satisfied with.

They gave up.

That's impossible.

Even if we didn't have them before,

we can open new channels

in the South China region in the future.

Isn't there any room for negotiation?

I ultimately rejected them.

Cooperation should be fair,

but they kept adding conditions.

That's my bottom line.

Couldn't you
have consulted me beforehand?

If we don't cooperate with them,

what will the factory produce
after resuming work?

Then don't resume work for now.

We'll find another solution.

What solution?

The profits from production

are far less than

the profits from land appreciation
in Fucheng.

You want to buy land
for real estate development?

You want to lay off all the workers?

This wasn't a sudden decision for me.

In business, you can't put all eggs
in one basket.

Moreover, from a marketing perspective,

the profits from real estate development

are something you couldn't earn
selling chocolates for ten years.

Did you plan this a long time ago?

Don't look at me like that.

You willingly came to Fucheng
in the first place,

and out of self-interest,
I wanted to give you

a chance to develop.

That's why I didn't interfere with
your plan to acquire and

restructure the food factory.

But things are different now.

With Bi's help,

the land of the food factory

is a ripe piece of meat waiting to be eaten.

Seeing it but not seizing it

will be my incompetence.

If you had this plan all along,

why didn't you tell me beforehand?

You watched me trying to resume work,

negotiating with the Italians,

and being anxious every day,

were you just enjoying it?

Or did you never intend for me

to win from the start?

Of course not.

I swear,

if the Italians

had made concessions
at the negotiation table today,

I wouldn't have said a word of this to you.

I would fully support you, help you

get the factory back on track,

and stand by you when it officially

resumes production.

I would be there to celebrate with you.

But we have to face reality.

It's come to this,

with no room for compromise.

Mancini will leave Fucheng tomorrow

and never return.

This path

is closed.

Does that mean it's all over now?

Just a minor setback in life,

something you'll forget after

taking a vacation.

How about this?

Whether you go to Hong Kong

or back to Shanghai,

I'll clean up the mess here.

I won't give up easily.

They're leaving tomorrow,

so I still have time to convince them.

Even if it doesn't work out,

I can find other partners.

If I succeed in negotiating a deal...

If you succeed in doing that,

I'll give you an additional three months.

You can use that time
to restore the factory's profitability

and pay back the workers.

I have full faith in your abilities.

But why should I do this?

Before you came to Fucheng,

you said

if you couldn't complete the reform
of the food factory,

you'd be willing to stay by my side
for another ten years.

Remember that?

Then give me another month.

Five days.

No room for negotiation.

Five days it is.

(Good Cat Restaurant)
Eat and drink

to your heart's content today.

If you're feeling dissatisfied,

don't hold it in.

Let it out.

Sir,

bring a case of beer.

Coming.

- Here you go.
- Thanks.

- No problem.
- Thank you.

- Here.
- Here.

Xiaoying.

What are you doing?

We know you have been upset recently.

Just say whatever you want to say

and scold whoever you want to scold.

Don't hold it in.

Okay.

Then I'll speak first.

It's my fault to lock Bai Lan
in the cold storage.

I apologize to you.

- Come on.
- Bottoms up.

What...

- What are you doing?
- I'll drink it for you.

You can't drink too much.

Alright, go ahead.

Drink it up.

But,

it's fine to target me,

but definitely

not my dad!

He's not just your dad,

but also our master.

With us around, who dares to target him?

Don't worry.

We'll help our master get justice.

- Another one!
- Sure.

- Cheers.
- Come on.

Come on.

Cheers!

Xiaoying,

can we eat now?

Of course. Please.

You should eat a lot.

You've been working overtime these days,

I wonder what Bai Lan is thinking,

making you go through all this.

It's not about her.

It's because their negotiations
with the Italians fell apart.

The Italians wanted sales channels

they couldn't provide,

so they decided not to cooperate.

They'll be leaving tomorrow.

And then that Huang Qing

issued an ultimatum to Bai Lan.

If she can't convince

the Italians to stay,

she has five days

to find a new factory.

What if she can't find one?

Why are you looking at me?

Eat.

Let's eat.

Come on, have another drink.

- Why are you so quiet?
- Come on.

What's going on?

- Let's drink.
- We don't eat together a lot.

Cheers.

Come on, cheers.

(Good Cat Restaurant)

You knew you couldn't handle alcohol.

Why did you do that?

You gave him the gift,

but why didn't you show up?

How did you know it was me?

No, no,

it wasn't me.

Xiaoying,

can I ask you something?

Go ahead.

Do you still dislike me?

Yes.

I dislike people like you

who run away after being scolded.

My dad was injured in the head,

and you gave him books and chess.

Do you think his injuries
aren't serious enough?

When I gave the gift,

I didn't think that much.

I just thought he would be bored

in the hospital, so I...

Now he's not bored at all.

His hospital room is lively

with people playing chess with him.

He's suffering from headaches

and still asks about

the Battle of Guandu.

It annoyed me,

so I took away the books and chess.

Now he's mad at me.

That's good.

Go home.

Go home.

Go home.

Let's hold hands.

It's not worth it for a small matter.

Dr. Bai,

are you thinking of jumping again?

You rogue,

why are you here?

By the way,

I dreamt of you last night,

cursing you.

Why would you curse me

in your dream, female rogue?

Because you keep haunting me,

wanting to kill me.

Am I that bad in your dreams?

What do you think?

What is the matter?

I'm here to fulfill your wishes.

(Gongyuan)

Do you know what you were just
talking about?

Yes.

(Gongyuan)

Our company wants to exchange shares
with the food factory.

Any issues?

I don't agree.

In Fucheng's food industry,

our company's distribution channels

are among the best.

Just last month,

I coordinated with Hong Kong

and South China distributors.

So,

the channel issue
the Italians are concerned about

is not an issue.

What?

Is our company too small for you?

No, it's not that.

Then what is it?

The risk is too high.

- I know.
- You don't know.

Given the current situation
of the food factory,

even if this deal goes through,

I can't guarantee the future of the factory.

I understand that.

So even if you join,

it's not necessarily going to be profitable.

In fact, it could be a total failure.

I understand all that.

Then why take this risk?

If you can take the risk,

why can't I?

I have nothing to lose.

Don't you understand that?

This path is the only hope
for the factory

and, for me, as well.

But it's different for you.

You have a good business and a good life.

Why give that up?

I can't let you wade through this mess.

So I can't let you

do me this favor.

Manager Bai,

I think you may have misunderstood.

Joining the food factory might help a little,

but it's mostly a business decision.

Our company has always focused
on distribution channels,

lacking independent production capabilities.

The food factory

is the opposite.

Isn't this a perfect match?

So,

I'm not trying to help you.

I'm trying to hitch a ride on your success.

What?

Don't you believe you can succeed?

I can't guarantee the outcome.

But I believe in you.

I remember you said

this company isn't just yours.

Li Guangnan also has a stake.

Will he agree?

Don't worry.

When it comes to making big money,

he's more enthusiastic than me.

Let's go.

Call the Italians and tell them

we have a deal to discuss.

(Gongyuan)

This is all the money
our company currently has,

plus this office

and the warehouse in the suburbs.

Take it all.

What are you doing?

I'm planning for the company
to exchange shares

with the food factory,

but I don't want to drag you all down
with me.

Lu Xiaolu, are you crazy?

What has Bai Lan been telling you

to make you keep giving in?

You gave up the cold storage,

okay.

But you are now giving up everything?

It's not as bad as you're thinking.

Just take the money.

Otherwise, if I end up losing,

how will you two live?

What about Master's retirement money?

Do you think if you lose,

we'll applaud

and be grateful?

I know,

you founded the company,

but what right do you have now

to talk about splitting up

and parting ways?

Compared to that woman,

what are we to you?

Li Guangnan, watch your tone.

It's not just for Bai Lan.

The factory also needs help.

What help does the factory need?

It's already collapsed beyond saving.

Lu Xiaolu, let me tell you,

we're in business,

not charity.

If a person is capable, they make money;

if not, they're poor.

You want to split up, right?

Since we're so

unimportant to you,

let's part ways.

Xiaoying!

Lu Xiaolu,

I'll give you one last chance.

You must

choose between

us and Bai Lan today.

If you choose the food factory,

then we're done.

Fine.

Do you want to smoke?

How about a drink?

Forget it,

it's bad for my voice.

You're really persistent.

Now I finally understand

why we can be brothers.

It's all about being stubborn

and sticking to one path until the end.

Like the connections

between you and Guangnan.

Xiaolu,

are you really willing to give up

everyone's effort for Bai Lan?

Not entirely.

Then,

is it for the factory?

That's part of the reason.

Then why?

While Bai Lan
is gambling for her freedom,

Master and the workers

are gambling for compensation.

I'm also gambling,

but I can't drag you all into it.

Xiaolu,

don't worry.

I'll talk to Xiaoying.

(Gongyuan)

This is our company's

cooperation agreement
with the food factory.

Please review it again.

If there are no issues,

we can sign it.

Have you really made up your mind?

I couldn't hope for anything better.

There's nothing to think about.

Why are you here?

Why is Mr. Lu here?

For business cooperation.

Cooperation?

Mr. Lu has decided
to merge his sales company

with the food factory
through equity exchange.

This way, we'll have new sales channels

and can renegotiate with the Italians.

I didn't expect Mr. Lu
to be so interested in

the factory's affairs
after leaving for so many years.

Thank you.

It's not a big deal.

This is a win-win decision.

Alright,

I'll leave you to your conversation.

I won't disturb you.

Is there anything I can do for you?

Ciao, Mr. Mancini.

I would like to invite you
to have dinner this evening.

Alright.

That's good.

See you then.

Mr. Mancini has checked out?

Yes, it was an impromptu check-out

at 2 PM today.

No wonder we couldn't reach him by phone.

Did he leave any message?

No.

He suddenly left at 2 PM

without contacting us.

Huang Qing and I had a deal.

I have four days left
to regain authorization

for the OEM factory.

If I can't secure a new

OEM brand by then,

he might change his mind.

I won't let anyone

stand in your way of doing what you want.

I'll help you get what you want,

your freedom.

Let's go to your office.

All the resources

and connections I've accumulated

over the years are here.

Then let's get started.

Hello?

Mr. He, it's me,

Xiaolu.

We have a new project and would like to

discuss it with you.

Really?

Okay,

tell me about it.

I saw Lu Xiaolu and Bai Lan

at the front desk just now.

I think

they must have heard about
Mr. Mancini's situation.

Vice Mayor Bi.

- Here?
- He's inside.

I'm sorry

to bother you so late.

Mr. Huang.

It's good to take a walk.

Good for my health.

Mayor Bi, we're good friends,

so I'll be direct.

I want to expedite the acquisition

of the remaining 40% stake
of the food factory

to complete the purchase of

the factory's land and assets thoroughly.

This is necessary

for me to proceed with my plans.

That's excellent.

We're on the same page.

We really need to move quickly.

Reliable, huh?

Alright, tell me

about your plans.

Any suggestions?

Well, I envision

constructing a large commercial plaza

on the food factory site

to make it a landmark

in Fucheng's development history.

What do you think?

Building a commercial plaza
is indeed a good idea.

I'll present this plan
to the city authorities.

However, actual construction will be

time-consuming and resource-intensive.

My current financial and energy resources
don't fully support this.

Are you thinking of

selling it off later?

How do you predict

Fucheng's future land prices will increase?

In my opinion,

within six to eight years,

tripling to quintupling the current value
shouldn't be an issue.

I'm more optimistic.

I'd say within five years,

it could quintuple.

So, I plan to hold onto it
for at least five years

and assess the situation later.

If you

apply for approval

for a large commercial plaza

and it's granted,

you can't delay the construction.

That might lead to criticism.

So I need your assistance.

I don't want to commit to

a specific construction timeline.

If you can help me with this,

I'll be very grateful to you.

We can discuss that later.

Normally,

constructing
such a large commercial plaza

would take about three years,

five years

is a bit too long.

But it's okay.

I'll try to help with that.

Once you acquire the land,

you need to make some noise.

Don't worry.

After I acquire the land,

I'll start demolishing the food factory,

and make the land ready.

And then I'll hire a word-famous designer

to do that design.

How long will it take?

Who knows?

Of course,

you also

have to solve the problems
of the workers.

Before the demolition,

pay off outstanding wages

and medical expenses.

The city places great importance

on stability and unity.

I'll do my best.

One more thing I must say,

and I hope you won't take offense.

Go ahead.

Control your woman.

If she successfully revitalizes

the food factory,

the cost of acquiring

the full ownership

in the future

will be significantly higher and

possibly unacceptable.

So,

don't let Miss Bai
cause any trouble for us.

Don't worry,

she won't be a problem.
