Episode 25
The first battle is lost.
This means our quota for tomorrow is double today's?
We haven't sold even one. How are we supposed to sell this?
What do we do?
Use your connections.
You have connections?
I don't.
Fine.
Then just let Huang Xiao Feng fire all 118 of us together.
If nothing else works, there's a last resort.
What?
Don't sell a single one.
Don't sell a single one?
We won't sell a single one,
then they can't tell who's first and who's last.
Will this work?
That's only if we're all of the same mind.
Why don't we all be of one mind.
Whoever backs out is a good-for-nothing bastard. Alright?
- Alright! - Great.
Here.
Whoever backs out
is a good-for-nothing bastard.
Everyone. Based on my calculations,
this is the best way to feel most full using the least money.
Water has a lot of nutrients.
I still want to eat food.
Let's sell my car.
No!
That's our valuable and useful asset.
There's no money for gas anyway,
what's the use of having it there?
That's the only asset you have not possessed by the bank.
Just keep it as a memory.
We can't talk about this anymore in the future.
Let's eat!
Let's eat.
Fighting.
- Fighting. - Fighting!
- Fighting. - Fighting.
Should I congratulate you, or sympathize with you?
Sympathize.
What does this mean?
There's one of you who completed the quota on the first day.
What? Who?
I really don't understand how you can all sit here with no worries.
VP Chen, can we know who it is?
It's whoever isn't here.
Who's not here?
Everyone's here. Everyone.
Where's Gao Wen Ruo Han?
- She looked like the type.
- So unreliable. - We agreed to do it together.
Let me reiterate the rules.
Right now Gao Wen Ruo Han finished the quota alone.
You're scores now are all zero,
all last place.
According to the rules of elimination,
you're all eliminated.
Only Gao Wen Ruo Han would do something like this.
That's right, this is too cruel.
Is this pushing us into this fire?
That's right.
Just goes to show we can't trust things to luck.
We get the principle. Now what do we do?
Everybody!
I thought about it.
We're all university students,
known as intellectuals.
We're just sensitive, not wanting to put down our pride.
I think we should show the power of our youth.
It's not like we haven't shouted before, even if it was at the office.
Today we'll be shouting in a public place, in front of all the pedestrians. How's that?
Alright!
I think here looks pretty good.
Let's go!
How many points will I get?!
Router, I love you!
We're going to sell you!
I don't want to be eliminated!
I want a job!

What is it?

Let me see it.
This way.
Two colours for your choosing.

- Surf with no worries. - I pick the white one.
White?
How much is it?
Originally $380, for a limited time it's $300.
Alright.
Give me one.

Isn't it around 200?
That's right, that's right.
Can you two money grubbers stop counting money and eat first?
Alright, alright, alright.
How much?
You guys, guess how many we sold?
How many?
280 sets!
We're still pretty far off.
- That's right. - Including the portion from yesterday,
we need to sell around 1000 sets today.
Everything starts off hard.
We've successfully taken the first step.
You should be proud of yourselves.
I don't think we can keep selling retail like this.
The effect's not great. We have to think of a way to wholesale.
You mean we should sell to computer stores?
They do the same thing.
Getting them to buy this from us is a little difficult.
It's like they sell pork,
and we're trying to sell pork to them.
Only if the price is lower than others.
We still have to try.
How about this,
Xiao Chuan and I will go scope things out.
You guys keep eating outside,
and keep selling later.
No, I haven't eaten yet.
Let's go. Let's go.
Come on, quick.
I'm starting to understand Gao Wen Ruo Han.
So I've decided to apply for a break.
I want to become the second Gao Wen Ruo Han.
Where are you going to find all those connections?
You'll try anything when you're desperate.
Boss, just wondering. Do you sell routers here?
We have different models.
There are new ones, old ones, and the ones that don't drop the connection.
Which one do you want?
Boss, we're saying we want to sell to you.
Take a look.
How much is this?
Our product come directly from the manuafacturer. Quality guaranteed.
- $300 a set. - That's right.
$300 a set, then what do I earn?
Are you serious?
Alright, go now.
I mean-
Leave, leave. Don't disrupt my business.
Let's go.
Thanks.
They said you declined me already.
Today you're calling me.
What this? What do you want?
No, no, no.
She misunderstood.
I told her I've never met a potential blind date as outstanding as you.
I feel like I really hit the jackpot.
I couldn't wrap my head around it,
so I told her I need time to react.
It turns out she didn't understand my meaning at all,
and declined you.
Really? Don't try to push and pull.
No, no.
I'm very naive.
Naive.
If you're naive then say it directly.
Are we good or not?
Don't waste time.
I know your family has a family business.
Then I want to ask what kind of business is your family in?
What's this? You haven't married me yet,
and you want to check the family property?
No, no.
Actually, it's because I used a product lately
that I think it's really great.
Maybe it's suitable for your business too.
Are you making fun of me?
I'm not.
If you're selling, then say you are.
And you say you're interested in me.
Dishonest people like you really annoy me.
Waste of time.
Hold on!
I've really run out of options with my company.
Just take a look at this product, it's really great.
Just try it and get to know it before you leave.
Move aside.
Don't call me from now on.
Qi Da Sheng, stop right there!
Sit down!
What- What, you're playing tough now?
If I tell you to sit, sit!

Do you know what I dislike the most about you?
You think you're all that since you have some lousy money.
You don't know how to respect other poeple at all,
especially girls.
Do you think we all have to love you
because you drive a sports car?
Why should we? Who are you?
Besides money, what else do you have?
What can you bring to the table?
You're missing personal charm. It's your fatal flaw, do you get it?
Also, no qualities, no culture, no manners.
Whichever girl is interested in you,
is just interested in your money.
Or else she wouldn't be able to stand you.
Do you get it?
Hold on.
Say that a few more times.
No one's ever scolded me like this before.
Are you low or what?
I'm scolding you, and you're enjoying it?
Are you a masochist?
I like your personality.
I sincerely want to be your friend.
Say it, how many routers do you want to sell?
I'll buy it.
500?
1000?
Hurry up. Give this Mr. 1000 units.
Hurry up. Move the merchandise.
It's fine. Just put some in there.
I am not in a rush. I can come back to pick them up.
Where do you pay for these?
Here, here, here.
Here.
- How much?- ¥300,000.
Take a look?
No necessary.
Is it done? Finished?
Then I am leaving.
Call me later.
Bye bye.
Ge Ge. A thousand units.
You are so great.
That's right. My hand was shaking when I swiped his card.
¥300,000. This is the first time in my life to see such large amount.
I just want to tell you folks this. The revolution has not ended yet,
comrades must continue to work hard.
- Fighting, fighting!- Fighting, fighting.
Hsiao Chuan, the guy was just a friend of mine.
You don't need to explain it to me.
We 17 together could not sell more than Gao Wen Ruo Han by herself.
Here.
Quick.
Go.
Zhang Sheng.
My dad gave me allowance for this month.
I would like to treat you to little wontons. Is that ok?
Not necessary.
Not in the mood.
Ai Li, I'd like to discuss this with you.
Our daughter has been selling things on the street these past few days. It has been tough for her.
I think perhaps you can cook something she likes and I will call her for dinner here.
Ok. Call her now to come back tomorrow.
Ok. I will get the grocery tomorrow morning.
Who is this?
Hello, who is this?
Is it Guang Ming?
This is. Who is this?
You can't tell my voice. This is Fang Fang.
I am in Fu Zhou for a reunion party.
Is that so?
You did not come. They say you went to Shanghai.
Yes. I have been busy recently.
When I have time another day
I will call you back.
Ok, ok. Bye.
Here.
Who was that?
School co-worker. They are in a party.
It's Wu Fang Fang?
Co-worker.
What are you doing?
I will call back to see which co-worker.
Enough, enough. Stop it.
Enough. It's Wu Fang Fang.
I was worried about angering you.
Song Guang Ming. You have been this way for decades.
You always act this way when you get a call from Wu Fang Fang.
It was she who abandoned you before. What is she looking you up for?
You saw that she called me, not I to her.
How do I know what she wanted?

Ge Ge.
I have something to ask you.
What?
Zhang Sheng.
Do you think he is doing well?
Seems pretty good.
Good thing he is a guy. If it were me, I would not be able to leave the past behind.
Isn't he the one giving out ideas to sell these routers?
Same as before.
Is that so?
But I feel some things
are not quite the same.
For example, like what?
For example,
Even though he came back,
I feel that the distance between us is
farther.
Really? You two are together every day.
But I still feel that he is
dodging me.
Are you thinking too much?
From what I see, he seems pretty natural when with you.
Really?
I did not feel that way.
Who gave you permission put out your table here? Do you have license for this?
Stop putting out your stuffs. Collect your stuffs quickly and get out of here.
What is going on, you two?
It's none of your business.
This is our turf. What I say count. If I don't allow you to sell here, you can't.
We are the vendor upstairs. I have been paying rent here every year.
The way you steal our business. What are we going to live on?
Not that.
This friend, first of all, we don't know who you are.
Actually I feel what you are doing here is wrong.
We sell, and so do you. It's fair competition. So let's see if...
- How can you hit me?- Who are you?
Don't, don't, don't. Buddy. Don't.
Here in public, in public.
Don't, don't. Does not look good.
Let me resolve this for you, ok?
Let's do this one to one. Let's go.
Go, go, go.
Who is this? You initiated the fight.
My goodness. Do you need to go to the hospital?
Are you ok, Hsiao Chuan?
- How can they hit us?- Who's got tissue to help him clean up the blood?
I am telling you. I will beat you up when I see you again.
Don't cause an incident that kills something!
How dare you hit us?
If you don't back off, I will kill you.
Stop.
Zhang Sheng, are you ok?
- Did you get hurt? - Let go.
You, this. It's bloody. Does it hurt?
Go away!
Go away. Go away. I don't want to be seen this way.
I have seen you this way before.
Does it look good?
Happy?
I know I was irritating before.
I don't want to return to the way I was.
But I don't want to be the way I am now.
For ¥300,
only for ¥300, I am beat up like a dog.
Why do I have to be this way?
What's with the ¥300?
Did you ever earn ¥300?
Yes. ¥300 to you was but parking fee.
A tip, not something worth looking at.
But ¥300 to you now are very important.
Every dime you spent before was all given to you by your parents. How made that superior?
Now you are relying on yourself.
What's so embarrassing about it?
Didn't you already get your motivation?
What did you get so discouraged when running into this little challenge?
Are you made of paper?
Moreover, you got us now.
No matter the problem you run into, we will stay by your side to deal with it.
Zhang Sheng. Fighting!
Hey, Zhang Sheng.
-Why are you treating Song Nuan like this? Don't you know that she likes you?- So what?
Then why are you acting this way?
Now I am nothing.
I am nil.
I can't give her anything.
You know that Song Nuan does not care about that.
It's not important to her.
But I care.
No, Zhang Sheng.
♫ Flying, my dreams ♫
♫ Come back, my love ♫
♫ Running, my friend ♫
♫ Come back, my tears ♫
Bro, just take this car back and use it.
The $200,000 you owe me is no big deal.
There are some days you can't go back to.
I have no use for this car.
Also, repaying a debt is what I'm supposed to do.
I can't repay the money, now the car is yours.
I'm finding now that you've changed so much, I don't know you anymore.
After everything that's happened, you're not like you were before.
Thanks.
Guang Ming!
Guang Ming.
You-
What, you don't recognize me?
Aren't you in Hong Kong?
Based on what you're saying, am I not welcome?
No, no, no.
We haven't seen each other in so long.
Come on, get in the car. Let's find a place to have a good chat.
No, no, no, I'm not going.
Then I'll go to your place and we can sit down.
No, no, no.
I'll go with you. Here,
I'll open the door. Hurry.
Timing and Subtitles by The Go 4 The Best! Team @ Viki
Guang Ming,
you have to check your watch even for just a meal?
If you don't report back home in time, you get scolded?
No, not that.
It's because we have a guest over today.
I'm in a rush to go back and make dumplings.
What are you saying?
I came all the way here to see you.
Is the relationship between us
not as good as your friends or these vegetables?
No, no, no. Don't say that.
How are you doing?
You look much older than when I last saw you.
How can I not get older?
My daughter is already in her twenties.
Also, I'm a lot older than you.
How is your husband?
He... passed away last year.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ask on purpose. Don't be upset.
Actually, him and I
don't have that deep of a relationship.
But he treated me very well,
and let me live the life I wanted.
However, I'm not happy at all.
My heart keeps thinking of a person.
I'm very happy when I'm with that person.
With him, I can throw tantrums whenever I want.
I can be as stubborn as I want. With him, I'm like a princess.
Yes, yes, yes.
What yes? Stop pretending like you don't know.
They won't let us set up shop anywhere.
Where can we go?
It's like this everyday, I'm about to go crazy.
My foot's about to be broken.
Oh right.
- That's right, let's find a place to sit. - I'm so tired.
- Alright. - Put it here.
My arm!
Ladies,
are you tired?
Here, try our newly released red wine.
Guaranteed to chase away your worries
in seconds.
Thanks.
How's the taste?
Handsome,
try out our newly released red wine.
Guaranteed to chase away your worries
in seconds.
Isn't it delicious?
Do you want to take some back for your family and children?
Alright, I like your suggestion.
Please come this way.
This- This works?
Wow.
Why is it so easy for them to sell things?
One second.
When I heard her voice, I thought Lin Zhi Ling came.
Compared to her, we're like bumpkins.
No wonder she sells well.
Remember to promote us and help us advertise.
Hi!
Oppa! Please take a look at our new product. Check out our router.
Buy one!
Unbeatable wifi connection!
Internet speed is very fast! Don't just pass by and miss out!
Handsome, take a look at our router.
It's wifi connection is amazing.
Oppa, oppa!
Take a look at our new router product, buy one and take it home.
No, no, no. I'm not buying.
Just take a look, what's the hurry?
Listen to me give you a product intro.
Our newest router has the best wifi connection.
No matter if your house is 100 square meters,
200 square meters, or 500 square meters,
the signal is still amazing!
I've already told you, I'm not buying.
Alright? Don't force it on me.
Don't be like this.
Hey, old man. Why are you being so harsh?
Fine, don't buy.
Why are you so rude?
Can you call me old man?
You don't have any manners.
Look at you, selling things outside and dressed like this.
Nonsense.
How did your parents raise you? How did you teachers educate you?r
Go back and put some clothes on.
Your skirt is pretty short. Are you cold?
Let me warm you up.
- What are you doing? - What do you want?
Warm what up?
Sis, you're selling routers? Let me see.
Talk if you want to, don't get physical.
Say some sweet words to us.
Maybe if we're in a good mood,
we'll buy two sets from you.
- What are you doing? - What are you doing? Go away!
Miss!
Hey.
You're wearing this little and you won't let us touch?
You don't think I'll strip you?
- Don't come, I'll call the police. - We're calling the police now, don't come.
Someon come!
- Don't come closer! - You don't think I'll strip you?
What are you doing?
Old man, are you crazy?
- I'll kill you punks! - Are you crazy?
You're insane!
I'll kill them!
Daughter, what are you doing? Why are you dressed like this?
I- We- We're promoting the company's routers.
Then sell routers,
why are you exposing your legs? What are you doing here?
We don't have any other options.
If we can't sell them, we'll be fired.
Then get fired! Don't work there!
You're not allowed to dress like this.
Look at what they said about my daughter.
It's shameful!
Dad, how can we care about that right now?
If we can't sell these our internships will be over.
Then it's over!
Why did dad come to Shanghai?
To see you dressed like this selling routers?
Stop worrying about us!
No, no, no. Don't touch those.
Dad, leave me alone.
I don't want you to do this! Don't touch it!
Daughter, don't shame your dad.
What are you going to do if you keep being like this? You still have to get married.
Then I'm not gonna get married.
I don't need you to care.
We have to do our jobs. We need to finish the task.
Uncle, don't be angry.
- We don't want to be like this either. - Song Nuan, forget it.
Just go home, leave this place. So many people are watching.
Dad can't take you dressed like this.
What are you doing?
Don't say any more, Uncle is still in a temper.
Fine.
Alright, go home. We're going home.
Come to Uncle place to eat dinner. Who else is there?
There's also the guys. The guys haven't eaten either.
Alright, don't cry. Don't cry.
Tell them to come and eat at our place.
Uncle will make food for you all.
Come on, let's go.
What's going on?
These poor girls, the dad is too stricit.
Here, take this.
Dad will cover you. Are you cold? The weather is so cold.
Here, wear this.
Come, we're going home.
Be good, everyone be good.
Let's go.
Zhang Sheng, did you know? I know a lot about dumplings.
- Look at my dumpling- - Yeah, yeah, give it a rest. What did you make?
Move aside.
Isn't mine too flashy?
Are these pants from the 80s?
These are too ugly.
How does this look?
Your pants are backwards.
Look at mine. They look good.
- Song Nuan. - They look good backwards.
Uncle.
I know how to make dumplings.
You didn't make a single one? - You don't get it-
Song Nuan.
- Come here. - Do you know how to make dumplings?
I know.
You guys made so little.
You don't know, there are a lot over there.
I'm telling you,
- these dumplings- - The more I think about it, the less I agree with it.
What are you doing?
Are you leading them in making poor decisions?
This doesn't make sense. If I didn't bump into you in the street,
I really don't know what you'd do in the future.
Uncle, is the water finished boiling?
If it's done, we're gonna boil the dumplings.
- Uncle, I'll come and help make dumplings. - I'll come too.
I'm really good at it, see?
I'll make some.
- Here, the dough is ready. - What are you doing here?
Let him make a dumpling,
- and we'll be able to eat it a year later. - It's so lively in here!
Auntie is back! Hi, Auntie.
- Hello, hello. - Hi, Auntie.
Hello.
I have something.
You guys play.
What is it? What is it?
Today I saw our daughter on the streets,
with clothes buttoned to here
and a skirt up to here.
She looked like a roadside prostitute.
What were they doing?
They were selling routers.
They're standing on the streets to sell router? I'm going to ask them.
They just came back, they're tired. Let them eat first, and we'll ask her later.
Don't worry.
Food's ready!
The dumplings are here! Come, come.
Come, come.
- Man, I'm so hungry. - Pass me some vinegar.
Here, have some vinegar.
- Who wants vinegar? - I do, I do.
We don't have to ask,
the company must have forced them.
Do you think the kids wanted to do this?
I'm not blaming our daughter,
I'm blaming myself as a father.
I think I'm so useless, do you get it?
Think about it, I had to see my daughter dressed like that on the streets,
selling things. What is this?
I- I feel awful, you know?
If I was still that VP,
wouldn't that be great? My daughter wouldn't have to suffer like this.
Maybe, maybe the youngsters don't think it's a big deal.
The problem is we're parents.
Seeing my own daughter dress like that and selling things on the street,
it feels like my heart is being pierced by needles.
Don't blame yourself any more.
We're just a normal family.
We can't always protect our children from hardships.
Sometimes, no matter how much we worry,
we can't help at all.
Right now the kids are being driven to desperation.
How can we help out?
The only thing we can help with is to go
and see if they kids are full.
Let's go.
Go.
Nuan.
Dad...
was too harsh before.
I'm sorry.
Dad.
I was wrong too.
I shouldn't have yelled at you on the street.
Dad loves you.
So don't blame dad for losing control. Don't blame dad.
Dad, I'm sorry.
I promise we won't ever do this again, really.
Dad, don't blame yourself either.
I'm telling you, no matter what we face in the future,
we'll never blame our parents.
These are our own paths.
We have to walk them ourselves.
Alright.
My Song Nuan is all grown up. My Song Nuan is all grown up.
Dad, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Dad.
The dumplings were so good.
No, I never thought I'd earn money.
Uncle, we're leaving!
Bye, Uncle!
Thank you Uncle, the dumplings were delicious.
You've worked hard, Uncle. Bye bye!
- Bye, Uncle! - Thank you, Uncle!
Dad, I'll walk them to the bus stop.
Alright, go on.
You're welcome to come back!
- We're going! - Bye bye! - Bye bye.
You guys go first, I want to take a walk.
Then I'll sit with you for a bit.
We're going.
I wonder what kind of blind date Ge Ge will meet today.
Actually, the results don't really matter.
What's important is the process.
Every one of us is giving it our all.
Now you speak more and more like goddess Song Nuan.
More like old manager Song Nuan.
Yesterday, in front of the computer store,
thank you for helping me.
Forget it.
Anyone else would have done the same.
But today you guys really crossed the line.
If I was a parent, I wouldn't be able to take it either.
The one just now wouldn't be the last bus, would it?
It's chilly, why don't you go back first?
Alright, then I'll see you tomorrow.
See you tomorrow.
Actually-
Can you give me two dollars?
All my money is with Zhao Xiao Chuan.
I- I have some.
Just right.
Thank you.
- Bye bye. - Bye bye.

- What? - Come here.
If a girl
looked at you like this,
what does it mean?
That means Song Nuan cares about you a lot,
and that you're being unreasonable.
I know she cares about me.
But in this past while, mom passed away,
Feng Hua went bankrupt,
and I'm trying to stay at JM. All these things have filled up my heart.
I really don't have the room to think about anything else.
Then you can explain it clearly to Song Nuan.
