[Game of Hunting]
[Episode 43]
With so much to say...
I don't know how to begin.
Without you...
I wouldn't be who I am today.
Don't mention it.
Don't resent me for spreading my wings and flying away.
I won't.
You'll still be in this line of work.
I will give you my blessings.
I hope you fly high and far.
So what about the two of us?
Lin Bai was right.
I have no talent in love.
A tree that doesn't sprout
doesn't mean it doesn't have the potential.
Instead, it's because it hasn't met the spring winds.
Are you saying...
we were a mistake?
I believe...
when you meet Luo Yi Ren
you will overflow with talent.
Qing Chun and I both lost to the one in your heart.
You can't say that. There's nothing between me and her.
She and I...
had a talk once at Kui Huang's housing estate.
It was about you.
She is yours.
Chairman Zheng, allow me.
Let Hui take it.
Were you the one to help her find the new job?
Yes, I did my research.
Yi Mei is completely qualified for that position.
And...
She has felt very guilty for
her negligence during the background investigation
resulting in the mishap with Zhao Jian Ting's case.
I personally did a special investigation in order to help lessen her guilt.
What investigation?
Do you know who placed Zhao Jian Ting as an anonymous recommendation
into your search system?
Who?
Yuan Kun.
Is this for certain?
Do you also know who gave an anonymous call
to Bank of the Mediterranean's Beijing subbranch
to report Zhao Jian Ting's falsified CV?
Him as well?
Nine years ago, Yuan Kun headhunted Zhao Jian Ting.
He backed off after finding out about the falsified CV
but has continued to keep tabs on him.
You got in his way in Chen Xiu Feng's case.
He made you take the blame on Zhao Jian Ting's case.
The scales are balanced now.
- You knew? - I didn't!
Why didn't you say anything earlier?
The investigation firm I used has been working nonstop four days in a row.
Their results just came in an hour ago.
Where is Yuan Kun now?
According to the itinerary provided by the travel agency
he is currently on vacation in Europe.
There are many companies giving him offers.
He hasn't made his final decision yet.
Unbelievable.
I thought it was all over already.
It was just the tip of the iceberg.
We were all players in the game.
I'll save the words of thanks.
I can cover the costs of the investigation firm.
Chairman Zheng, I never say no to money.
But you don't have to pay for this.
Yi Mei and I are both your students.
I hope our companies can have the chance to work together more often
and earn more money.
Consider that payment.
You're progressing so quickly.
You're very right.
Only with collaboration, will we have a future.
I've told you before.
There's no future for you two.
Shut up.
You snarky boy.
- Zhao Hui Lin? - Yes.
You applied for human resources planning.
Yes.
I'd like to hear what advantages you have in that aspect.
I have interned at Liepin
and while shadowing experienced consultants
took part in 16 individual and 5 team hiring processes.
Later on, I also assisted the company
in setting up branch offices in another two cities.
What other similar companies have you worked for?
Chairman Zheng...
Hello, Chairman Zheng.
Chairman Zheng.
Which means, in terms of professional networking
Liepin doesn't just focus on jobs, but has also increased networking.
This has allowed it to bring companies, headhunters, and individuals together
turning it into a service platform, not just an informational platform.
In the past few years, the growth of e-commerce and O2O services
shows the internet is connecting different services.
I don't know if the headhunting network
has anybody who specializes in
information resource management or market strategy planning.
Not the type who are merely theorists, but the type...
The type that have actual experience. Do you understand?
Ms. Yan.
I get the impression you are skirting the topic.
Perhaps it is a difficult subject you can't elaborate on.
Of course, it could be a trade secret so you're limited in what you can say.
How about this?
I'll ask the questions and you answer.
After this person you're looking to hire joins your company
what are the specifics of the job duties and what will be the job title?
Can you tell me that?
Of course.
The job is information management and the job title is...
Chief information officer.
An information officer for competitive intelligence.
- Is it for a newly established division? - No.
It's been established for a long time.
I came...
to ask you to find an appropriate candidate
to replace the current information officer.
[Yan Feng] [Sheng Huang Cosmetics Corporation]
Sorry, Ms. Yan.
I'd like to ask what your relationship to Sheng Huang Corporation is.
Isn't it on the business card?
I see it.
But the card says you are the financial director.
Replacing the CIO isn't within the scope of your obligations.
Have you heard of Sheng Huang Corporation?
[Client: Yan Bing He]
[Company: Sheng Huang Corporation]
Even though I don't use cosmetics, I have.
You don't have to say that.
You must have at least [Current CIO Chen Xiang]
three Sheng Huang products in your home.
All right, I won't argue with you on that.
I know of Sheng Huang Corporation.
Do you know who the chairman of Sheng Huang is?
Of course.
My mind is full of the names of entrepreneurs.
Such as Sheng Huang Corporation's Yan Bing He.
I am his daughter.
I should have guessed.
So did you come to discuss this under your father's authorization?
No.
I am doing this without his knowledge.
He is not to know.
Without his knowledge?
Does Mr. Yan not want to replace Ch--
The chief intelligence officer?
CIO. That's what you call it, right?
What is his name?
Chen Xiang.
Replace Chen Xiang.
[Current CIO, Chen Xiang, 36 years old]
If this is not your father's intention
then it is not being done under the company's name.
Do you not accept individual cases?
You're mistaken. It's not that we don't.
In the case that we find a candidate for you
but your father does not consent
are you capable of completing the replacement?
If there is a suitable candidate, I will be honest with my father.
He will agree.
Okay.
We'll assume it's possible.
Can you tell me the reason for replacing Chen Xiang?
He is my fiance.
I'm sorry, Ms. Yan. I'm becoming more confused.
I'll start from the beginning.
You look flushed with health.
What a coincidence! What brings you here?
It's no coincidence.
I came to track you down. You don't even answer your phone.
Your Fixed Income Team's Sang Jian Dong told me you were running here.
This is his bike.
Is there something urgent?
It's nothing much.
One, I was just passing by.
Second...
Just call me a gossiper. I wanted to tell you something.
Jia Yi Mei left.
Don't use that smile to hide your secret delight.
A dull time, sober or drunk.
For even in dreams I have not what I desire.
How am I delighted?
See? Aren't you being sentimental now?
What did you hold back from saying before you smiled?
- I didn't. - You did.
Your opened your mouth, bit your tongue, then began smiling.
Even if I did, I don't know what I wanted to say either.
Would you?
You want to ask
if Jia Yi Mei left
or if she and Zheng Qiu Dong broke up.
Admit it.
If I said no, that would be a blow to the ego for a great mind reader like you.
If I said yes
I'd make myself sound like an ignorant little girl.
You don't have to admit it.
I don't mind being humiliated in front of you.
I want to tell you this is a chance.
After Bai Li Qin passed away
you and Zheng Qiu Dong could have gotten together.
That's what you both thought as well.
Neither of you expected him to land in prison.
By the time he came out, you had Xia.
When Xia was gone and you went to see him
he had Xiong Qing Chun.
That year you came to Hangzhou
were you thinking of rekindling your relationship with him?
I refuse to answer.
After he broke up with Xiong Qing Chun
we went to Beijing to headhunt Qu Min Jing.
At that time, Zheng Qiu Dong had the intention of...
Another bad timing.
You had that comedian.
That really was a comedy.
He was in agony.
I could see it.
Later on, you and the actor were no more.
You came to Hangzhou again, but he had Jia.
Fate plays us like fools.
Over these years
if there was one moment in which you two were both single and aware of it
I believe neither of you would have chosen an alternative.
You have such good memory.
Was it my experience? It sounds as if it's yours instead.
Let me say this first.
I don't want to be a matchmaker. That's not my style.
I just want to remind you two that in all these years
this is the first time both of you are single.
Even if neither of you want to do anything right away
don't be so easily seduced by others and don't seduce others.
Okay?
All right, the romance talk is over.
Time for business.
Give me a break. What business?
What do you mean?
This is the game you and Kui set up. I'm just a chess piece.
All right, get to reporting.
We'll be expanding our business soon
and setting up branch offices in the north.
Have you found a CFO for De Ren?
Of course.
You really get things done fast.
A natural worker bee.
Come on! I'm the boss now, okay?
Okay.
This is the information we currently have on him.
That's hilarious!
Your wife sure is amusing.
Don't mind her. Let's focus on work.
Yan Feng says her fiance
used to be a logical and highly analytical person.
He began acting abnormally last year
being forgetful, incoherent in speech
quick to cry, and suffering from insomnia and hair loss.
He's now often in a stupor and easily frightened.
He was taken to the hospital last week for rest and observation.
It's understandable that
she is worried about her fiance and is in a hurry to free him of his duties.
But why didn't she discuss it with her dad?
And why did her father also hire us to find a replacement?
Worried about his future son-in-law?
He doesn't want a dumb grandchild.
But why didn't he tell you that Chen Xiang is his future son-in-law?
Since father and daughter have the same reason for hiring a replacement
why are they hiding it from each other?
What can be seen from overseas affections?
What does overseas affections mean?
- Let me see. - What overseas affections?
- Oh goodness! - What is it?
Overseas evacuation of nationals. There's no overseas affection!
Let me see. Evacuation?
You could just have opened the link! You really get me worked up.
A gossip witch. She only looks at headlines.
She can mistake "input" for "implant."
It makes me happy!
In the world of gossip, even the air is made for gossip.
You guys carry on. I'm leaving.
Qiu Dong, put your work aside for a bit. I have serious business to discuss.
Oh, please. You're going to talk serious business?
Don't scare our baby.
Juan Juan, go right ahead. Don't mind him.
I swear on his life that not everything you say is gossip.
- I'm definitely going to die, then. - It's absolutely proper business.
- Say it. - Say it.
Did you and Yi Mei split up?
I'm so sorry.
Have you?
Yes.
See? See? What did I tell you, Lin Bai?
- What? - Do you remember?
Didn't I tell you in the elevator that time
whether it be their astrological sign, zodiac sign, or looks
the two of them weren't compatible?
She really isn't right for you.
Oh, come on. You believe in online fortune-telling?
Let her talk.
Look, Qiu Dong wants to hear it.
Scoot over. Let me sit.
Here, come.
Qiu Dong, I believe
you should seriously consider Luo Yi Ren now.
I secretly checked fortunes for you two.
You're a good match.
In secret?
How noble of you to do good deeds in secret.
Did you check our fortunes?
Of course. How else did I get you wrapped around my finger?
Where are you going?
I just checked my fortune. It's time for me to use the bathroom.
Qiu Dong.
I think the good times are about to begin for you and Luo Yi Ren.
There's no hiding from it.
It's fate.
Hide?
I haven't been hiding.
Oh, come on. Look at you two.
Dating one after the other, no rest in between.
Why is that?
To force yourselves to forget each other.
To use a new relationship to tell yourselves there's no more chance.
You tell yourself not to think about her.
You find some random person so you can forget about her.
That is called hiding.
No, I didn't just find some random person.
I've taken every relationship seriously.
You were serious.
But have you ever put in your real feelings?
During Mr. Chen's 20th wedding anniversary party
I saw you and Luo Yi Ren's eyes were a pair.
I'm sure Jia Yi Mei saw it as well.
That must've been devastating for her.
What does it mean for your eyes to betray you?
That was it.
I don't think there's anything special about the way I look at her.
Never underestimate a gossiper.
Thanks for backing me, Hubby.
You sure were quick.
Our bathroom has become Superman's phone booth.
Your underpants aren't on the outside though.
Stop joking.
Jia Yi Mei just left and now you're pushing for Luo Yi Ren.
Don't push it too hard.
Enough. Qiu Dong and I have work to do.
All right, I'm leaving.
- Qiu Dong, think about it. - Okay, enough.
Be careful.
But since we're on this topic...
For the two of you, the other person is within reach.
What sets you two apart from those just passing through is that
your places in each other's hearts have never changed.
Let's get back to business. Has President Yan given you an offer?
Not yet, but soon.
He and his daughter are recruiting for the same position
but keeping it from each other.
We need to refuse one of them. It's too absurd.
Which one?
I think Luo Yi Ren doesn't have the ability to produce a high offer.
It's Yan Feng, not Luo Yi Ren.
- Did I say Luo Yi Ren? - Didn't you?
Who do you think you are?
You can't hide it!
What are you laughing at? Tell me.
You can't tell. No telling the gossip girl.
Not going to tell me?
I'll still laugh.
You can tell me afterward.
Okay, I'm done laughing. You can tell me now.
Your loss if you don't tell me.
Your wife is definitely something.
You win.
We're at the heart of the Beijing CBD, where land is like gold.
This is an office in China World Trade Center Tower 3.
The floor level and orientation are all ideal.
It's just a bit pricey.
In headhunting, you have to go where the money is.
Is it 400 square meters?
380 square meters. It's plenty.
The building is in an excellent location and all facilities are available.
It looks fine to me.
You're in charge of the Beijing office.
You can look into it some more, but you still get the final say.
I feel a bit nervous taking on so much responsibility.
Save the act.
I know you've been looking forward to this day for a long time.
Keep up the good work.
This is the Lujiazui, Shanghai's CBD, that Mr. Cheng recommended.
It suits our demands in all aspects.
In this building alone, there are 11 of the Global 500 companies.
We'll have an endless stream of business without even leaving the building.
What's that on the wall? Was it previously a children's goods store?
No, it used to be a high-end daycare center.
Shanghai is an important city for us.
I sent you there to support Mr. Cheng for a year.
We spared no cost to hire him because of his wealth of experience.
Learn from him.
We'll open another branch in Wuhan next year.
At that time, you'll be promoted to manager of the Wuhan office.
What do you think?
Thank you for Headquarters's confidence!
Yes, Hangzhou has become headquarters.
Yes, headquarters, the flagship.
We've used our time well. We have been making progress.
2015 will be De Ren's most important year.
In this year, De Ren will be undergoing fundamental changes.
All of you are professionals.
You were all selected through a rigorous selection process.
I believe these fundamental changes
will lead each of your careers toward its peaks.
Double ammunition! Get it, get it!
Five million! Keep it up!
Total wipeout! Man, you're amazing!
Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen! Hurry back inside! The car's almost to the door!
Hurry up!
Your slipper!
Here.
- Hello, President Yan. - Hi, Zheng. Lin Bai didn't come?
He's now mainly in charge of management.
I'm specifically responsible for business.
Let's head upstairs.
He's a bit better than Yokomichi Keiji (Film character, a mental patient.)
but far from a normal person.
The young can't withstand heavy workloads.
He's been overwhelmed.
Chen Xiang, do you like it here?
Hi.
When are we going to Japan?
- Your slipper! - Here.
His condition is stable overall.
It's best to let him gradually forget about work.
Chen Xiang.
Hello.
Jay, make a copy and put it in my office.
Ms. Yan.
- Hello. - Please sit.
We've gathered quite a lot of information that's publicly available.
We hope you can provide us with what we can't find.
Sure.
To be honest, there aren't many in competitive intelligence.
Are you aware of our fee schedule?
Chairman Zheng has given me a quote as reference.
Your father will eventually find out about replacing Chen Xiang.
Why don't you discuss it with him?
I will talk to him when there is someone ready.
It's a bit early for that.
But our down payment must be paid at the time the contract is signed.
If the boss doesn't approve it, will Accounting release payment?
Money isn't an issue. I can send payment from other accounts.
Turning your boyfriend unemployed.
It's rarely seen.
Not unemployed, but recuperating.
He's not made of iron.
Even steel has a fatigue limit.
Let alone a defective heart.
Heart?
Hello, Chairman Zheng.
Ms. Yan, did you have a good talk with CEO Lin?
I need to speak with you.
Does he care a lot about money?
No.
Were you two discussing the down payment?
Yes.
If the contract is signed tomorrow, the down payment does have to be paid.
Money isn't an issue.
I'll repeat myself.
Nobody else at Sheng Huang is to know about this.
If someone finds out, my dad will know.
CEO Lin didn't mention your father?
What about my father?
I mean that your father is the boss.
Will it work out if he is not to know?
You sure are long-winded.
This is the third time you've mentioned this.
By the way, there's something I'd like to ask about.
When did Chen Xiang begin to fall into this state?
What state?
His dazed condition.
You've seen him?
I found out through someone in Sheng Huang.
Is that so?
Are you surprised?
Someone who was once so astute has fallen into this condition.
He's really...
He's really pitiful.
If you want to know more about him, it's best to come to me first.
You'll receive more detailed information.
Rumors are not trustworthy.
I will.
The Beijing office welcomed its first client today.
It is an outsourcing case for a real estate project.
This is an auspicious start.
Chairman Zheng and CEO Lin, you can rest assured.
Manager Cheng is negotiating a contract at Ya Huan Pharmaceuticals.
They've commissioned us to provide candidates for
the positions of medical science liaison, product registration specialist
communications specialist, clinical supervisor
clinical data administrator, and so on.
This will be an all-inclusive agreement.
Headquarters, please rest assured.
We have already come out with a flying start.
Congratulations.
Here's a candidate.
He has a deep understanding of
the use of competitive intelligence on the national and business level.
He once worked at Mitsui Training Center
giving training on competitive intelligence
counterintelligence, information awareness
channels for corporate leaks, and the like.
Next.
Zhou Shuang He, female, 47 years old.
From 1999 to 2001, she studied in
the Science Policy Research Unit of the University of Sussex in the UK.
She's currently head of the Clean Energy Risk Control Center
as well as chief intelligence analyst.
She once worked for the European Strategic Intelligence Alliance
and helped set up operations for CI systems
for multinational companies such as ABB and Siemens.
What is CI?
CI is an abbreviation for competitive intelligence.
Continue.
During Zhou Shuang He's 25-year career in competitive intelligence
she has worked in training, service, processing, collection
analysis, dispatch, promotion, interference, and so on.
She has practically worked in every area.
Who are you looking for?
I have an appointment with Director Zhou Shuang He.
Excuse me, do you know how to get to Director Zhou Shuang He's office?
Mr. Zheng Qiu Dong, right?
Director Zhou? Do you need help?
I'd like to first give you a basic introduction to Deju Renhe.
That's not necessary.
Our company's accomplishments and reputation in the industry
are considerably prominent.
Don't be mistaken, Chairman Zheng.
I didn't say that because I look down on your company.
You know Mr. Walinta Saul, yes?
Saul of Te Hui? Of course I do.
You poached his vice chairman
but he still has a high opinion of you and your company
especially of you, Chairman Zheng.
I thank him.
Since you know Saul, then you must know about our company.
So let's get to the point. I'm quite curious.
I really want to know what you have planned for me.
Have you heard of Sheng Huang Corporation?
Is there a family in this city that doesn't use Sheng Huang's cosmetics?
I use their products as well.
Sheng Huang's premium brand name and primary merchandise
broke into the overseas market last year.
Early next year, they also plan on acquiring a French perfume brand
and begin planning for the South American market.
They'll also be purchasing
a 1,000 hectares field of cloves in Zanzibar.
Sheng Huang's executives were the first in the country
to see the importance of competitive intelligence.
You might be aware of that.
Of course.
Their competitive intelligence division was first established by a journalist.
That person's last name was Duan. I don't remember the full name.
He was later poached by the SASAC.
The current head is named Chen Xiang.
Do you know Chen Xiang?
I can't say we're acquainted. I merely know of him.
Sheng Huang believes Chen Xiang has been in this position for too long
and is considering a replacement.
Do you know why Sheng Huang wants to replace Chen Xiang?
It seems he was under tremendous stress for a prolonged period of time
and isn't too sharp here anymore.
Is that what Yan Bing He told you?
Could there be something more?
There is a cosmetics company in Shanghai called Dan Nong. Have you heard of it?
There are some things I don't have the right to speak of.
I can only say Yan Bing He has kept something from you.
However, I do have the right to say
I am interested in the CIO position at Sheng Huang.
That makes things easy.
I will get the ball rolling.
- Your slippers! - Here.
And...
Chen Xiang's current girlfriend happens to be Yan Bing He's daughter.
Really?
Yan Bing He's daughter is the Yan family's one and only.
You want me to replace her boyfriend?
Wouldn't my life be made hell?
Good thing you told me this.
You don't have to worry about that.
Yan Bing He's daughter is named Yan Feng.
She...
She doesn't seem to want Chen Xiang to continue working.
Is that true?
Can you be certain?
There are stories revolving around Chen Xiang.
What stories?
Chairman Zheng, you're the one headhunting me.
You should be the one describing the position to me
and telling me the reasons why my predecessor
left the job or fell out of favor.
You should be the one telling me Chen Xiang's story.
It seems I've overlooked some things.
Would you like to hear Sheng Huang's offer?
That's not most important.
Only by figuring out Chen Xiang's situation
will you have a chance to continue your headhunting plan.
I see what you are hinting at.
Okay.
I'll give it a try.
[Zhao Jian Ting]
Jian Ting, what is it?
How come there are two payments for Sheng Huang's case?
One is from Sheng Huang's company account while the other is a personal account.
What's going on?
There should only be one. I'll ask Lin Bai when I get back.
[CEO's office]
Lin Bai, Yan Bing He and his daughter are both the same case.
We can't take them both on. One of them needs to go.
Why?
We can't accept two payments for one job.
How is this one job?
They're clearly two different clients.
What are you saying? Are you playing dumb?
