[Episode 33] Subtitles by DramaFever
General Manager.
Have you found something?
Mo Fan lost his parents at a young age and grew up in an orphanage.
He and Chen Yi Du were friends in college.
They met through the taekwondo club and have maintained a close relationship.
Mo Fan even took Yi Du's mother as his godmother.
I really can't see what sort of deep grudge they might have.
What about before he landed in the orphanage?
The orphanage doesn't keep good track of its records.
All records of Mo Fan before he joined the orphanage have been lost.
Keep investigating.
You can try looking into Mo Fan's background through other means.
Yes.
Which style do you think a woman over 40 in the fashion industry would like?
Retro?
Too conservative.
Mix-and-match?
Too complicated.
Punk metal?
I'm kidding. That's not really appropriate.
Truly, truly...
What is the truth?
Who can tell me?
It'd be great if I were a mind reader. Then I'd know what she likes.
I don't even know her measurements. How can I make clothes for her?
People say to cut one's coat according to one's cloth.
I don't even have the cloth. How do I make the coat?
Get your coat. Let's go find the answer ourselves.
- Where are we going? - Let's go.
Chen Yi Du, I'm going to use the restroom.
- Right now? - I can't hold it in anymore.
- What if Ms. Cotillard leaves? - She won't.
Just keep watch. I'll be back soon.
Mr. Chen?
Mr. Chen.
The restroom is that way.
- Hello. - Ms. Cotillard! Hello, hello.
- Hello. - A coincidence to run into you here.
- Are you out here for leisure? - Yes.
Mr. Chen, I really like China, so I go out and about when I have the time.
Since I've run into you, why don't I treat you to coffee?
Sure, okay.
Thank you.
Sorry, sorry.
Waiter.
Hello, what would you two like to order?
Two coffees.
- Okay, please wait a moment. - Thank you.
By the way, Chairman Chen, you are more familiar with this city.
Do you have any good recommendations?
That will depend on what sort of places you like to go to.
- Two coffees. Please enjoy. - Thank you.
Thank you.
What did you just do?
I thought you'd like this.
Do Chinese men not know how to respect women at all?
That is too severe.
I just think men should take the initiative.
Although it has been two years since my husband passed away
I am not ready to accept a new relationship.
Mr. Chen.
Please conduct yourself with dignity.
I...
Ms. Cotillard!
What are you shouting for? Follow her.
Wait, what did you do just now?
- I... - Never mind. Let's go!
Hello, please take a look around.
Welcome.
These are all traditional Chinese accessories.
See if there's anything you like. You can try them on.
Look at the elaborate craftsmanship on this one.
She likes styles with Chinese influences and cool colors.
Thank you.
- Hello? - Quick, let's go.
Mo Fan, I'll be right over.
Director.
Xiao Liang, good. I was just about to look for you.
As one of the company's senior executives
and a veteran salesman
how could you lose such an important order so easily?
Do you know we worked a whole month for it?
As you know, that client is very hard to deal with.
Who knew he would change his mind at the last minute?
- I-- - Don't give me excuses.
Why would the client change his mind? Isn't it because you didn't do enough?
Look at yourself. I feel embarrassed for you.
Is this how you set an example for our employees?
Is this how you repay the company that has been so kind to you?
If this continues, I think perhaps you should step down as Deputy Director.
That was interesting. That's not like your usual style.
That is called acting with a hidden motive.
It's just pretending to be stupid to create a diversion.
- Come on. - Come on!
I've seen through your move. You still dare to use it again?
Not bad.
Then I'll have to strike before you're aware of it.
Even so, I can still ambush you from any angle.
Don't forget you have never beaten me before.
CEO Mo.
There is a deputy director in our company who has been low on morale lately.
I think we can use him. He might be able to help us.
That would be good.
Chen Yi Du is busy saving the damsel. You guys can make use of the opportunity.
Uh... So you know... the money...
It's... not always enough.
The PIN is your birthdate.
General Manager, I have some new findings
regarding Mo Fan's relationship with Chen Yi Du.
What have you found?
Mo Fan's parents died in a car accident when he was 12 years old.
The one who caused the accident was Chen Yi Du's father.
What else do you need me to do?
I want to know what Mo Fan is up to.
Okay.
The dress Ms. Cotillard is wearing can only be seen by the kindhearted and wise.
She's not wearing anything!
Oh my god!
How dare you deceive me!
Had a dream?
What did you dream about?
I had a wonderful dream.
I dreamed that I angered Ms. Cotillard.
She was about to tear me apart.
But dreams are the opposite of reality.
I have to get to work to prevent the nightmare from turning into reality.
You're done?
Yes.
Let's work hard together.
Director Liang.
Listen to me.
Alcohol is the essence of youth. The more you drink, the more youthful you get.
Let's drink to our hearts' content. Here!
Bottoms up.
Don't be so moody. Cheer up.
We finally get a few days off. Don't think about unhappy things.
Nobody has ever lectured me straight to my face.
Today, he told me right out I'm not fit to be Deputy Director of Sales.
He gets all the credit while I get all the blame.
Listen, it's either me or him now!
Yes! Tell you what, Director Liang.
I can tell it is a waste of talent for you to be under him.
You should take on a big order and show what you're capable of.
Force him out the door.
With your capabilities, you should have been Director already.
That's right!
- I'm going to the bathroom. - Go, go.
No, no, no. I'm not interested in any of the brands you're promoting.
Listen, I only care about first-rate bridal brands in the nation.
Even if I make an order, I'll only order the best wedding gowns in China.
Look, money isn't a problem.
You can ask around in Malaysia to see if I, Robert Hu, have the means.
Stop! Don't propose those brands of yours anymore.
I've done my research into the Chinese market.
They're not even third-rate.
I have a very good grasp of the Chinese market.
Do you understand? Don't try to dupe me.
Sir.
- You forgot your earphone. - Thank you.
Sir, I happened to overhear that you are in the bridal business.
What?
Allow me to introduce myself.
This is my business card.
CEO Mo, as you expected, this Liang Zhi Hai is a foolish fish.
He's taken the bait.
You must still be cautious. Don't make any mistakes.
Yes.
You're taking it so seriously.
Look at what I bought for you.
Get our own.
This will do.
Master, please take a look.
This is your student's finished sketch.
Please review it and tell me what I should revise.
Give me a pencil.
I was sitting across from Ms. Cotillard that day at the cafe.
I made some detailed observations at that close distance.
She has sloping shoulders
so you'll need to design the shoulder area to be more structured
or else that physical flaw will be apparent.
A true master.
Let me give you a stamp of approval.
A "like."
Just one "like" and that's it? That's so insincere.
How's that? Is it sweet? I added a little extra.
So should I reciprocate?
That's nasty.
No, no, it's fine, thank you. You don't have to.
- No way. - No!
Help!
General Manager, these are my findings.
Mo Fan has come into contact with these people recently.
I'm not sure about the details yet. This is the list of names.
Who is this Robert Hu?
He is a wealthy merchant in Malaysia. He runs a family business.
He recently began dipping into the bridal business.
I understand.
Continue keeping an eye on Mo Fan. Alert me if anything happens.
Yes.
Ms. Cotillard likes ethnic jewelry.
I was thinking about adding a blue and white porcelain pendant.
- I felt it wouldn't work later. - Why?
It fits in too well with the outfit I designed.
It won't be enough to thrill her.
- Come with me. - Where to?
This way.
Watch out!
What's wrong?
I think I remember a bit more of the past.
Maybe I'll slowly regain my memories this way.
My superpowers will slowly come back too.
Come on.
- Hello. - Hello.
Hello.
Ms. Cotillard is here.
Good evening, everyone.
This dress I'm wearing
was designed for me by Ms. Li Wei Wei.
What do you all think?
The details are nice. It has a strong Chinese influence.
Honestly speaking, you look like a celebrity in it.
However, I personally don't think it fits very well.
That is because there is one last bit of work that hasn't been done on it yet.
One last bit of work?
What are you looking at?
Your arms are actually slimmer than I had thought.
They should be bared for a better look.
That was amazing, Li Wei Wei.
Your performance today has completely convinced me.
Although you have lost seven years of memories
you have not lost your talent as a designer.
I truly hope Ling Long and DU
can continue to contend for the rights to join Fontaine.
Thank you.
Dad, look.
Wei Wei has proved her talent to Ms. Cotillard.
And Ms. Cotillard has given Ling Long back the right to compete.
- What are you trying to say? - Let her come back.
Ling Long cannot lose Wei Wei.
Wei Wei is just one of Ling Long's high-ranking employees.
Without her, Ling Long can find a Zhang Wei Wei or Lee Wei Wei.
Dad.
Wei Wei single-handedly founded Ling Long.
She is its essence.
And Ms. Cotillard has acknowledged her talent.
In that case, she can return.
She is just a money-making machine anyway.
However, with her return
you must not have any personal relationship with her.
She is just one of the company's employees.
Nothing more.
Come in.
Chairman Chen, this is your package.
Okay.
Here we are.
I made sure to order fruit.
Eat more fruit to get enough vitamins. Here.
Okay, you have some too.
Here, open up.
- Honey, let's take a picture together. - Okay.
Come over here.
Let's take a selfie.
All right.
Posting to Moments: "Eating with the wifey. Cutie pie!"
Cao Zhong, did you plan this?
What is it?
Why did you use your company's advertisement as the background?
You did it on purpose, didn't you?
I didn't notice.
I really didn't notice.
What a coincidence.
Come.
Come on.
Didn't you tell me to eat fruit?
Hurry up.
Come on.
Look happier.
All right, you can post to Weibo and Moments.
So sensitive.
What is this?
Did Leo lose his memories?
He cooked so much food. He must be rewarding me.
What a good boy.
This looks incredible.
How does it taste?
I made all of these for Tiffany.
Does it taste good?
It's for her?
This brat values his girlfriend more than his sister.
All right then.
- It's so good. - Yes!
- It's truly a delicacy. - Yes!
Hurry and make more and then invite her over.
Okay, okay.
Honestly!
My looks and culinary skills have both reached the peak of perfection.
- Where can you find a man like me? - Get back to cooking.
Okay, right away.
The contract is ready.
If everything is okay
this should be the biggest order in the history of our company.
Secretary Cao, take a look.
The order is indeed huge.
There aren't any problems with the contract either.
However, these dresses are all made in a Malaysian style.
If the other party returns the merchandise
it'll be impossible to find another buyer in the country for such dresses.
They'll all go to waste.
Secretary Cao.
Don't worry about it.
He has already paid the deposit before the contract has even been signed.
He has shown absolute sincerity.
If we still cannot make a decision, we will displease him.
Besides, Mr. Robert Hu is one of the wealthiest tycoons in Malaysia.
He does not care about the money. He cares about efficiency.
If we don't sign the contract today
this order will no longer be on the table.
Who can bear that responsibility?
How is it? Is it good?
It's good.
However... there is still room for improvement.
Okay, okay.
I'll cook for you every day when you're busy.
That's enough, thank you.
Don't be shy. I made these just for you.
This is really enough. Thank you.
I'll make you whatever you like, okay?
All right.
What's the matter? Are you so touched that you're speechless?
Yes, I'm about to puke.
What?
I said I'm so touched, I'm about to cry.
That's good.
Wash the vegetables.
Mop the floor.
Cook.
Do the laundry.
What is this?
Dice for household chores.
I think there should be surprises in life.
We can also practice for our future.
How do you use this?
Throw the dice and you do whatever chore it lands on.
What?
No, no, no. I mean I'll do whatever chore you land on.
Mistress, what do you reckon we should do?
I heard DU took on a large order from Malaysia.
That one order is equivalent to five of ours.
Then by what you say, their sales will exceed Ling Long's.
We'll be under a lot of pressure then.
We've devoted so much effort and energy. We must not lose to DU.
- Director Li. - Director Li.
I believe our enemy has always been ourselves.
No matter what the outcome may be
we have nothing to regret because we've put in the effort.
Don't worry about how they are faring.
What matters the most is that we put in the hard work.
Let's do this!
- Let's do this! - Let's do this!
General Manager.
This Mr. Robert Hu is indeed from a wealthy family in Malaysia.
He is currently working with DU.
There doesn't seem to be anything fishy going on.
However, he hasn't appeared in the country before.
He hasn't ever been in the fashion business either.
Keep investigating.
Okay.
Hello? Su Fei?
- Yes, change next season's models. - Hello, Cao Zhong.
Focus on internet media with regards to the press. At 2 p.m...
The theme for the showroom's backdrop needs to be confirmed promptly.
- The 3 p.m. meeting won't be postponed. - I'll be back in 30 minutes for review.
Okay, bye.
Hello?
Tiffany.
Don't display the new designer's works in the retail stores.
And also, there needs to be an increase in store promotions.
Yes, I'll be going.
Set it for 5 p.m.
Okay.
Hello, Jenny.
Yes, Old Wan needs help. Go help him.
Leave the sketch in my office. I'll be back in about half an hour.
Okay, bye.
We only have 15 minutes left to enjoy our time together.
Then let's treasure it.
I have a deal to propose.
What is it?
For whatever the outcome is. The winner gets a prize.
Otherwise, it's not worth it to work so hard
and have to compete against the one I love.
Okay.
Then let's do this.
If I win, you'll marry me.
If I lose, I'll marry you.
Is that so?
But let me say this now. If there isn't a grand proposal, I won't say yes.
Eat quickly. There's no more time.
Hello?
Chairman Chen, bad news.
The Malaysian company we're working with just announced bankruptcy.
Now nobody will take the large order of wedding dresses we produced for them.
What will we do?
Who was so proud of himself and swore that this is a trustworthy company?
Who lost his mind and insisted on collaborating with this company?
Now that such a big issue has cropped up, how will you explain yourself?
Be honest.
Did you receive benefits somewhere along the way?
In all honesty, I work for the company with unwavering loyalty.
Chairman Chen, you know me. I am not that type of person.
I don't know how things progressed to this state either.
It is pointless to discuss this right now.
Contact other buyers immediately and sell these dresses as soon as possible.
Yes, get to it quickly. This is urgent.
Yes.
Chairman Chen, because these dresses are designed with a Malaysian style
no domestic merchants are willing to take them.
Will this have any effect on our bid to join Fontaine?
Everyone, please don't hold back today.
Let's eat and drink until we can't stand. Here.
Huang Kai, didn't you say you had something important to tell us?
If you hold out on us, how are we supposed to enjoy the meal?
Has something happened to the company?
Say something.
Since you are forcing me to tell you...
then I'll just have to say it.
But I'm afraid after I tell you, you won't have any appetite left.
Honey, don't panic. There will be a solution.
If you get sick from all the stress, what will I do?
- Director Li. - What happened?
The Malaysian company that was working with DU suddenly announced bankruptcy.
Nobody will take that order of dresses. Cao Zhong is going mad from worry.
You're here.
Something has happened to DU. Did you do it?
Has there? I didn't know.
Why do you have information on Robert Hu on your computer?
DU is our competitor.
I was just curious how they suddenly received such a big order.
I think this Robert Hu was sent by you as a setup for Chen Yi Du.
I know you won't believe anything I say right now.
Think what you like.
How could you turn into this?
I wish I never met you.
Chen Yi Du must be at a loss for what to do.
Let him get scorched by these flames.
Yes, and then we'll light another fire and usher him right out of DU.
By then, you'll be the one to call the shots at DU, Boss.
You both seem to be itching to see Chen Yi Du's expression.
Yes. Being stabbed in the back by his closest brother.
It must feel like being cut up.
Boss, let's drink.
CEO Mo.
Hello, Director Yang?
Yes, this is Li Wei Wei.
Hello? Hello?
Seriously.
Hello, Chairman Fang?
Yes, this is Wei Wei.
It's like this.
I'd like to ask for your help on something.
My friend has amassed a batch of Malaysian-style wedding dresses.
I was wondering if you could help handle it.
It's not a good time for you right now?
Okay, I'll call you back later.
Bye.
Let me, let me do that.
Honestly. Let me do this.
Didn't I tell you to leave me alone?
Get out.
Hello, Chairman Yang?
Yes, this is Wei Wei.
Yes, it's been a long time.
Yes, I do have a favor to ask of you.
Discuss in person?
Sure, okay.
You're in Shangri-La?
Come over right now?
Okay, sure. I'll see you in a bit.
Bye. Thank you, Chairman Yang.
Are you going to see Long Xin's Chairman Yang?
I told you to stay out of my business.
He is a terrible person. He can't be trusted.
Is that to say you can be trusted?
I...
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Director Li, I'll drink to you on behalf of Chairman Yang and our company.
No, no. I really can't drink any more.
Everybody's having a good time. Drink a little.
With this little sincerity, how will you convince me to help Chen Yi Du?
- That's right. - Show some sincerity.
- Drink up. - Sir, you can't go in.
What do you want?
That is...
- What did he do! - Huo Xiao, what are you doing?
- How outrageous. - So rude.
Let's leave.
You want me to help Chen Yi Du? In your dreams!
What are you doing? Let go.
You don't need to care about my business!
Do you think I want to?
I don't want to see you degrade yourself for Chen Yi Du's sake.
Why do I have to? Isn't it because of you?
You set up Chen Yi Du. Of course you don't want me to help him.
I didn't set him up.
He was just blind and couldn't tell who is good and who is bad.
I'm the blind one! I'm the one who can't tell the good people from the bad.
That's how I was misled into trusting someone like you.
- Let go! - I've already sold Chen Yi Du's dresses!
The buyer is a Malaysian client.
If you go in right now, I'll cancel the order immediately.
This is not a small matter.
What kind of impression does such a thing happening make at a big company?
The company's image will crumble in a flash.
There's certainly no more hope of joining Fontaine.
How will we settle this?
How much has the stock dropped in the past two days?
Are you able to bear responsibility for our losses?
I have heard your comments.
It's getting late. You should all go home and rest.
I will solve the problems one by one.
I will think of a way to make up for incurred losses as best as I can.
Make up for them? How will you do that?
By selling the company to Ling Long?
Chen Yi Du, you have severely disappointed us.
You must have lost your mind being in love.
Chairman Chen, you're not colluding with Li Wei Wei to swindle us, are you?
Exactly.
I have already explained what I can.
All of you know our current circumstances are very grim.
I don't want to waste time on this sort of endless argument.
Today's board meeting will end here.
You... What kind of attitude is that?
If you want us to leave, you'll first have to tell us
how and when you'll fix this.
Otherwise, we won't be leaving!
- Yes, we're not leaving! - Yes, we're not leaving!
Chairman Chen! Chairman Chen!
There's a buyer! There's a buyer for the dresses.
What exactly is your intent?
Haven't you already seen it?
I used my father's connections
for the purpose of helping him out of this crisis.
You have targeted him again and again. Why are you helping him this time?
I'm not helping him. I'm helping you.
