Episode 13
Please, please go on a date with me.
Let's go
Let's go.
You are going on a date with me?
Who's going on a date with you?
It's just having a meal along the way.
All right.
I'll help you to check on it.
Hello.
I am Wen Xue.
Hello.
Got a boyfriend?
I wasn't following you.
Now, I wonder who's following who?
Promise me.
Promise you what?
Promise that you won't leave and I'll let go of you.
Why should I promise you?
Because I care about you.
So little.
Sausages!
Good evening, Miss.
What would you like to eat?
Hey, Boss.
your shop's beef with white vegetables filling dumpling costs $5 per liang (50 grams)
That's too expensive.
Dumplings with beef filling are obviously expensive.
The vegetarian ones are cheaper.
Then I'm currently trying to slim down.
Then I shall just have the vegetarian ones.
I'll take 2 liang with pumpkin fillings.
Sorry Miss, we only sell 3 liang or more.
Then what if I can't finish them?
If you can't finish it, you can take it away.
Alright, alright.
I'll take 3 liang with pumpkin fillings then.
Ok, Miss, wait for a moment.
The meals made by Hua Zai taste better.
That's too pitiful.
I would choose to be eating noodle forever
and never get full.
I'm done.
My taste in food
has been spoilt by that fatty.
Boss
Take the bill and take away.
I think don't take away better.
Have you eaten yet?
Eaten
Why did you make a table full of food like this?
I was afraid you guys wouldn't be full eating outside.
How about
having some more?
Have some.
Eat slowly.
You guys are back.
Have you guys eaten?
Eaten
What about Wen Xue?
We have it together.
Then eat some more.
Ok, ok.
Didn't we already leave notes on the message board?
Stop talking. Just sit down and eat.
This is my favourite.
Eat some more, eat some more.
Hong Guo
Still haven't eat your meal, right?
I've already eaten! You must be really hungry, right?
Come here! I made a lot of yummy dishes!
Faster, faster, faster a bit.
There's still some here, still have
I'll give you some. I'll give you some!
Hong Guo, let me give you some!
Sha Sha
Have you eaten?
You guys
Come and eat!
Then, then I shall get you guys the fruits.
Ok, alright, thank you.
Get some kiwi!
Ok, no problem.
Tomato
Durian
Durian, alright
Hey, hey, hey.
Didn't all of you say will be eating out?
Hua Zai's cooking is really good.
I couldn't finish the food from outside.
I thought so too.
It's so much better than instant noodle!
The big lawyer didn't invite you to eat?
He can't take me out to eat everyday.
If you marry him then it'll be possible.
You
We shall discuss for a while.
regarding the problem of us not having dinner at home.
Although we are doing this to help Hua Zai save money,
But if we were to not eat at home,
Hua Zai seems to be feeling more terrible.
That's right, that's right.
The looks on Hua Zai's face when he invited us to eat earlier is
really feeling very terrible.
How about we chip in for grocery money?
Okay! If I keep eating instant noodle every day then
I'm about to become a mummy.
I don't have to put in any money.
The money Hua Zai owes me can be used as grocery money.
It can last for many years.
Ye Sha Sha, can you please stop talking like this?
The money that I owed you guys, I shall go and think of a solution right now.
Don't need to come and find me. I'm very safe.
I love you guys.
Sha Sha, I'm sorry to you.
Should we go and look for Hua Zai?
Where to find him?
Fei Fan
You looking for me?
If I didn't remember wrongly, this should be yours.
Madam Xie, thank you for
donating to our orphanage every year.
This is nothing much.
I do what I can.
Able to help these children.
I'm already very happy.
That's right.
Do you still remember this robot?
It was your favorite toy when you were little.
At that time, you gave it to me.
I only knew when I came back to visit the orphanage today
and met your mother.
Auntie Xiang Xiang who loves me the most
is actually Madam Xie.
And the boy beside her,
is the you now, Xie Fei Fan.
You've really changed a lot.
Even your looks have changed.
I can't even recognise you.
Didn't think that the world is really so small
We've met again.
What have you just said?
You've met my Mum?
Why are you looking for me?
Big Carrot
I would like to ask you
that is
How can I make a guy like me?
You have someone you like?
Don't tell me that Hong Guo has fallen in love with me?
I'm really a ladies' man!
even Hong Guo has been attracted by me.
Can you stop laughing?
Quickly teach me.
There's a saying,
"Guys courting girls is like climbing a wall,
girls courting guys is only paper thin."
So you're telling me
to take a piece of paper...
No
What I meant is that it's hard for guys to chase after girls
but for girls to chase after guys is very easy.
So I have to
Tell him directly
I Love You
I Love You?
Really shy
How am I suppose to say it out?
Okay. If you can't say it
Then just use action to show it.
Just kiss him directly.
Really?
Of course.
Just like a stamp.
After you've done it
then do you think that person will think nothing of it?
Why do I think that you're lying to me?
With my many years of experience in this field,
I know guys find it hard to reject women who take the initiative.
I got it
Is it like on television
where it happened to be an accident?
I shall teach you how.
Firstly,
you two have to slowly get closer.
Close enough to smell the other person scent.
A person scent can stimulate someone.
When the distance between you two lessen
then you'll have to grab the chance
to create the romantic atmosphere.
Let yourself immerse
in the most beautiful and nicest moment.
Just like right now,
The sky is so calm,
the lights are so romantic,
even the wind is as soft as your lover's hands,
brushing your cheeks
and brushing my cheeks.
Then
And then?
Then you keep getting closer and closer... like this.
Keep getting closer.
The eyes have to be closed, right?
You still look too shy!
Men will definitely be scared of you and run away.
Then what to do?
Big Carrot
Please teach me!
I will definitely learn it well.
I can't. You're too stupid, can't be taught.
Do I have to do it like this?
Get closer and closer.
I'll continue teaching you another day!
Romantic environment
Get closer and closer.
It's Fei Fan.
Huh? Quick. Say something.
Hello.
Fei Fan?
Yes, yes.
Fine. Fine. We are in Paris.
Er, no, no... Bali island.
Dad
you guys are back in the country, isn't it?
Mom!
Dad
Son!
Why didn't you tell us earlier that you are back?
Dad Son
You've become thin.
No, still the same.
You took the night bus/train home?
You must be hungry.
Come home with me.
I'll cook some dishes for you.
Ok, let's go.
Dad, I'll help you to clear away the bowls.
No need. Let your dad do it.
You don't need to concern yourself with this.
Quickly go get something to eat.
Everyone,
stop what you are doing now.
I have some news I want to share with everyone.
The first is good, the second not.
Which one do you want first?
Whats the good news?
I'd rather hear the bad news first.
Well let me share the good news first.
The Femina Girls contest is about to start.
It gonna change our current resouces tremendously.
The influence and reputation of Femina.
They're holding us to a higher standard.
Furthermore,
the idea of this contest is different from the others.
It is going to be an important event in the world of fashion
and to be written in history.
Let just says,
everyone could uses this contest to
to become an important figure in the industry.
Great!
Preparing for the event mean we have to be busy again.
Listening to it doesn't seem like good news at all.
Besides writing articles to turn in on time,
we'll probably have to work overtime.
I just joined a new health club.
Looks like my money is wasted.
Isn't our magazine fine as it is?
Why the events?
Will it help our sales?
What's the bad news?
You have already guessed the bad news.
This contest,
other than a few marketing people who will join us,
for everything else
we will have to depend on ourselves.
So everyone needs to work hard.
Son,
what's the matter?
Has something happened?
No, it's fine.
Is there a problem at work?
No problem.
No problem at all.
Don't lie to me.
Don't forget, I'm your mom.
Mom
Dad
I've wronged you guys.
Son, what's going on?
Son!
What's going on?!
Say whats wrong!
What's wrong?
Tell Mom, what's the issue.
What exactly happened?
Tell us, what happened?
Here's an assignment for you guys.
Xiang Xie?
Femina?
This is personally instructed by the station chief Bao..
You guys must do this well.
Wen Xue
You have interviewed Fei Fan before,
so you should know him.
When you discuss business with him,
Do not ever reveal the relationship between station chief Bao and Boss Xie.
Just pretend you somehow got to know of this project.
As long as there's interest to follow up, that's good.
Why does it have to be so cumbersome?
There's no why.
Bye
Bye.
Goodbye.
Work's over
What do you guys want to eat?
Anything is fine.
I think that place downstairs is not bad.
You haven't eatten yet right?
Accompany me to dinner.
I have some thing I would like
to talk to you about.
You have to slowly lean in
so close, that you can smell his scent.
Smells so good
What kind of cologne is he wearing?
Body scent, can be stimulating.
When your distance decreases,
you have to grab the opportunity.
This should be close enough, right?
Get yourself into a type of
extremely wonderful mood.
Is there something wrong?
My head is making me have a dizzy feeling.
I'm going to leave first.
I'll be outside waiting for you.
Let's leave.
Okay.
Subs by the Modern New Species Team on Viki
Let's go.
Okay.
This way.
Is there something going on with you?
Hey, let's eat dinner tonight
Cant
Why not?
Tonight, together with Fei Fan,
we have to work out details on the Femina Girl contest.
Besides, we have to come out with a plan.
Just make a call to the company and decline it.
Have you forgotten what the Chief said?
We have to pretend we ran into it unintentionally.
This matter has yet to be publicly announced.
If I call, it will be letting the cat out of the bag.
It's not bad to have a father like Xie LeiZhen.
Whatever you do, he'll pave the road for you.
And yet keep it from the son,
so that he has a sense of achievement.
Like you, depending on yourself, isn't that good too?
Since you're getting dinner by yourself,
I won't accompany you.
Just looking at that Xie pince, my stomach is upset.
Why are you upset with them?
I really believe,
you are quite outstanding.
Then, do you like me or do you like him?
I hate you.
Fei Fan wasn't home.
Eat then.
What happened to Hong Guo? She isn't coming to eat dinner?
Does she get food at work?
I also thought that
She and my Fei Fan have become really close lately.
What about this "my" Fei Fan?
Really soon, he will be.
Hong Guo
The reason why I;ve asked you to come today,
is to tell you
regarding the matter of Femina Girl contest,
Come here
I want to tell you,
regarding the Femina Girl contest,
I have a novel idea.
You need to slowly move closer.
Until you smell his scent.
Why did you just hit your own head?
My head was a bit itchy.
If your head is itchy, you shouldn't go about smacking it...
Well, I wanted to tell you,
What was I just talking about?
You haven't said a thing yet.
Oh right.
I want to tell you
regarding the Femina Girl contest,
I want our editors to participate too.
They are after all fashion editors.
They are professionals.
Everyone has been thinking this.
This way,
after having them put up the stage,
it'll make our contest become even more professional
Hong Guo...
Hong Guo!
You're acting really strange today.
Is it because you're not feeling well?
Let me see if you have a fever or not...
Well you don't have a fever.
I am fine.
Why is your face so red?
Are you really all right?
Really all right.
And then?
What?
You haven't finish talking yet.
Where was I?
Hey Hua Zai, where have you been?
You didn't call. And your phone is off.
We are all worried about you.
Have you eaten yet? Why don't I order takeout for you?
No need.
I went home.
Hua Zai,
where did all this money come from?
So much money!
So much money, so much money.
I got this money from my parents.
Let me first repay you guys.
So this is your parents' money?
I have to repay what I owe.
Sha Sha owes money to others.
You borrowed from friends, right?
I dont want this.
Why not?
Your parents earned this. I cant take this.
You said,
the cash is gone, so forget about it.
Even after, you still went and bothered your parents with this.
And have them pay your debts.
Do you consider yourself a man?
But, this, this money.
I never thought Sha Sha can speak this way.
Let me tell you,
You must immediately
take this money back to parents.
And apoligize to them.
You were the ripped off.
You have to figure it out on your own.
Quickly.
Go, go, go
Thank you Sha Sha.
Thank you all.
Then I'll take the money back to my mom and dad.
Thank you.
What did I just say?
I'm such an idiot.
Idiot, idiot, idiot.
My money disappeared.
My money.
So much, so much money.
Fei Fan.
Wen Zue, is there something you need?
Just want to discuss some work issues.
Oh, come in.
Sit.
So it's like this;
My station hopes to pay
closer attention to the modern fashion industry.
But right now, we don't have a suitable topic.
Since you are in Xiang Xie now,
I'll like to have a chat with you,
and see if there is any suitable topic we can get hold of.
Is there any specific criteria?
There is only one.
It must fit what our TV programme needs.
It shouldn't be too factual or conceptual.
Best if it's an event.
Great.
Recently, we are planning to organize such an event.
Would you like to listen to the details?
Sounds good, tell me about it.
We are planning to organize a Femina Girl Contest.
It is a talent selection event targeted towards the masses.
Our plan is to
have Femina Magazine
collaborate with a TV station,
a portal website,
and a video streaming website,
to serve as the platforms for this event.
Great. This Femina Girl Contest
is exactly what we are looking for.
My station will definitely give you lots of support.
Then I will report this to my station tomorrow,
and personally follow this event.
Actually, I wanted to talk to you about this also.
I never thought you would come to me instead.
Such a coincidence.
I believe that if we had your help,
the project will definitely succeed.
Rest assured,
if my superiors approve of this event,
I will do my best.
I won't let you regret discussing this with me today.
Hong Guo
Fei Fan,
I just thought of an idea for the project,
I wanted to talk to you about it for a bit.
Okay.
Hong Guo.
Wen Xue.
Sorry,
I've interrupted you both.
Then, I'll head back first
I'll talk about it with you at work tomorrow
There's no need.
Wen Xue and I were just talking
about the matter.
How about you stay and talk
and brainstorm about it.
Alright.
Mr and Mrs, welcome back
Home is the most comfortable.
See, you can't hide it from your son.
We should have come home earlier.
We were out for so many days.
You're right.
After this vacation, I've realized
that the feeling of home is the best.
Of course.
But I had you with me,
and it made me really happy.
Right now, I don't want anything else.
You don't want our son to come visit us for a few days?
Of course, I want him to.'
He must be working so hard.
How about,
we invite him over for dinner tonight.
Okay.
Only when we are hurt,
will we learn to treasure
We haven't forgotten
that song
that i like to hum
You want me to care for you
and treat each other as the only one
but we can't continue like that
That year we thought too hard about love
In the end we didn't pass the test
Only later did we know who still had feelings for the other
If only love could be that simple
and everlasting
What are you singing? Haven't even heard of it before.
He is singing the songs he wrote himself.
These original songs are so lousy.
Sing something more popular!
Sing "I can't help but love you"!
Sing! Why did you stop?
We came just to hear Chin Tian sing
If you dont want to listen to him, then leave.
That's too funny,
he's not a famous singer.
Why does he have fans?
He's going to be a famous singer.
There's no way he'd become one.
Are you jealous?
Excuse me sir
if you're not going to shut up, then leave
You've disrupted everyones peace.
Why do I have to leave?
This is the park. Public property.
I go when I want to.
What are you filming?
I want to publicize this.
Let the netizens see it.
That there are idiots like you out there.
Stop filming, stop filming.
I said, stop filming!
Stop filming.
What are you doing?
What do you think Im doing?
Forget it, forget it.
What kind of trouble are you trying to stir?
Forget it.
Forget it!
I'm sorry
just now that because of me,
that your camera was broken.
How could you blame yourself?
It was because I meddled.
When you got really angry,
it looked cool.
Didn't you rent this video camera?
How can you return it like this?
Can this be repaired?
I dont know.
Let me go home and see if I can fix it.
You're going to try to fix it yourself?
Of course, having another person look at costs money.
If it's my motor bike or lights,
fans, even water faucets,
I fix them myself.
Look at my hands. They're all roughed out.
Kind of like a man's hand.
What are you doing?
Taking a look.
It does look like a man's hand.
You have quite the strength.
Isn't that good?
I never said it was bad.
A little brother like you,
should not make fun of older sister's hand.
People may misunderstand.
Just how much older are you,
that you can call me Little Brother.
I must be older than you.
This year I'm 26.
How old are you?
I'm 22.
See, I'm older than you by a lot.
And so what if that's the case.
Let us congratulate this month's best employee.
Aida !
Ok. Next, let us look at
this month's volume.
From this graph, we can tell that
Femina's sales
is increasing at a alarming rate.
This week we have sold over 1 million copies.
When people in the industry talk about us,
they will say two things.
Firstly, Femina's speed.
Well for the second,
second...
is the Greenhorn Team.
Of course,
they are referring to me.
I've dragged everyone down.
But I personally like the nickname they have given us.
Greenhorn...
It means that we still have alot of potential to improve.
And also says that
the road we are on,
is different from those who only care about making money.
I believe that only greenhorns
will dare to go down the path nobody else dares to.
And only the greenhorns
can achieve
an impossible miracle.
This week's best article is
is still WenXue and LingJie's
segment of Octopus entertainment.
The ratings hit 5.8 percentage points.
Elsewhere,
another 3 segments,
also exceeded 3 percentage points.
The remaining 2 segments,
also exceeded 2 percentage points.
To acknowledge everyone's efforts,
for this month,
no one will be fired.
WenXue, thanks for helping our segment.
We'll buy you dinner tonight.
Ok.
WenXue is not free tonight.
Wen Xue doesn't have time today.
She has to work overtime because she doesn't qualify.
You all said that we have to achieve
one hundred million sales within a year.
One third of the time has passed
and we have only hit ten percent of the target.
Do you think we can reach our goal?
We can.
Hong Guo,
Did you fail your Mathematics in school?
I always got full marks.
Then use your "full marks" brain to calculate for awhile.
How can we hit the sales target?
I believe in the Assistant Publisher.
And you seem to have forgotten that
we have Femina's Speed!
Director Su,
didn't Wen Xue's segment come in first?
Wen Xue's target isn't to come in first within the station,
but to be first in the industry.
And that means the viewership ratings have to exceed 10 percent.
Using 100 marks as a gauge,
she only got 58marks.
In the nation's TV programme history,
only 8 people exceeded 5.8 percent viewership.
And only 2 people exceeded 8 percent.
That is to say,
it is easy to get over 5.8 percent.
But difficult to exceed 8 percent.
Not to mention your target of 10 percent.
Let me repeat again.
If you can't hit 10 percent,
when the time comes,
Ling Jie and you will have to leave.
Does she have no feelings at all?
How can she set this kind of target?
Exactly.
Hey, don't you get it ?
The Chief is joking.
Who's joking with you?
Meet ajourned.
Son, eat some more.
Mom, enough.
Fei Fan, how's your work coming along?
Pretty good.
Hit any snags?
Not yet.
So you are confident that you can meet the goal?
You silly child,
how come you don't have anything to talk to your parents about?
It's like squeezing toothpaste, one squeeze for one word.
Mom,
you have to let me have a chance to talk.
Then let me speak,
when I first started out at Femina,
I knew nothing about this profession.
I thought,
"since our nation's population is so large",
"a few billion population",
"if only 10 percent of the people
each buy one Femina Magazine a year",
"I will be able to accomplish my goal".
But...
I've slowly realized,
only if we make our sales number one,
and take over other magazines' market,
will I be able reach my target.
After hearing this, are you trying to back out?
Dad,
did the both of you even went overseas?
After two days, your mom wanted to come back.
Then why didn't you tell me earlier?
Are you scared that I will back out of the bargain?
So did you try to back out?
Yes
But now I wont.
That's because
I'm not only one
who wants to succeed.
If you want to sleep, go home and sleep.
I must see to it that you go home safely.
It's the gentleman thing to do.
Do as you like then.
Let's go.

You've stared for so long,
is it because you think that I'm very handsome?
