[In Life and Love]
[Episode 24]
Many years ago
you stole her away right before my eyes, even though you knew I loved her.
I was the idiot for still thinking of you as my friend.
Confucius said, "Don't repeat mistakes."
I won't fall in the same spot twice.
Only dogs can't break the habit of eating crap.
If I let you take her away again, I am no better than a dog.
Do you smell love in the air?
I'm going to find the most beautiful girl in here!
- Is she beautiful? - She's beautiful.
That's my future wife.
Go to hell. Do you even know her?
That's not important. I will very soon.
- Are you tired? - A little bit.
Why don't we leave now? Let's go eat.
Okay! I know of a good place.
Put it on. Wear your jacket.
- I'll put it on later-- - Why are you leaving so soon?
Who are you asking?
I'm asking...
her!
What are you doing?
She's ignoring you. Don't pester her.
Pester? I haven't even gotten her number yet. Hurry up!
We'll walk you home.
What do you guys want?
Your phone number.
Which of you wants my number?
Me.
- I don't have a phone. - The dorm phone number is fine.
Sorry, our dorm room doesn't have a landline.
- Email? - No email, either.
- Enough, stop bothering her. - Let's go.
Instant message account.
I don't believe you don't have an instant message account either.
All right. I'm only going to say it once.
It's all numerical. I don't log on often, either.
Tell me.
12678931.
She said it so fast. Did you memorize it?
You're here. Do I even need to memorize it?
I have it memorized.
Whoever remembers it, gets it.
No, no!
How can you be like this? A man doesn't steal his buddy's woman.
Steal your woman? She didn't accept you. She's not your woman.
You're my buddy. Tell me the number, so we can compete fairly.
You're so good-looking and a sweet-talker. How would that be fair?
When did you become so slick?
Spit it out.
Give it to me. I'm the one with a better chance of winning her!
Tell me!
Okay, I'll tell you.
- 12678931. - What is it?
12678931.
I knew being friends with you would pay off!
Let's go add her. Come on.
12678931.
Didn't she say she doesn't log on often?
Could it be fake?
We'll know once we try.
Are you Lin Yue?
Yes. Which one are you?
The one you're going to fall in love with.
Ding! Ding Ren Jian!
Why are you still sleeping?
Listen! Lin Yue agreed to be my girlfriend!
I wasn't just boasting.
I said I would get the most beautiful girl in school.
- How awesome am I? - Awesome.
Awesome. I really admire you.
Don't admire me. I don't need you to.
It's what I deserve to have.
It's not just the prettiest girl in school.
Listen, women are not important.
What I want is a successful career, to accomplish big things!
What I want is everybody, every single person, to admire me! Okay?
Hurry and get up. Let's go eat.
I received the money my dad sent me today.
I'll treat you to dumplings. What do you think of lamb meat filling? Come on!
- Let's go. - Tang.
Let me ask you something.
If... we both liked the same girl at the same time
what would you do?
Are you an idiot?
She's not right for you! Give up on that idea.
Hurry up. Come on.
Tang, do you have genuine feelings for her?
What are you asking me?
Getting what I want is genuine.
Listen, this is just the beginning.
From now on, everything I want will belong to me.
Ding Ren Jian, work with me.
We'll be able to create a new world.
Come on! Quick!
Let's go!
Haoran Corporation decided...
What are we doing here?
What does he do?
What he does isn't important.
What matters is that our start-up capital will come from him.
Him? At his level? He stutters even when he's just reading off the page.
Look at him. He looks like more of a miser than I am. He'll give us money?
What does it matter how he reads? Are you as wealthy as he is?
You just need to trust me.
Don't forget what I told you.
No matter what I say later, you need to enthusiastically play along with me.
Where are you going? What are you doing?
What are you doing over there?
Shhh!
This problem is becoming more prominent as the number of vehicles increases.
So, under such circumstances
the need for automated parking systems is inevitable.
Therefore, in the future, the market--
Please speak.
Hello, President Chen.
This automated parking system you've proposed isn't a novel idea.
It is widely used in Japan due to the scarcity of land.
The mechanical parking garage model was introduced in 1959.
By 1983, they had already built
25,454 mechanical parking garages in varying models.
According to my research
some domestic companies have tried to build
similar automatic parking garages
but the results did not meet expectations.
On the contrary, they did more harm than good.
Do you have any concrete data?
Of course, I do.
Parking is difficult in the city, so mechanical parking lots became popular.
The most attractive aspect was little space it occupies.
The biggest scam was the claim
that a car could be retrieved in two minutes.
The reality is as follows.
Every morning, people lined up for car retrieval.
The car retrieval time for the first customer was two minutes.
But, retrieval time for the 10th customer took 20 minutes.
By the 50th customer, retrieval time took 90 minutes.
The developers never revealed this issue.
They only said it takes just two minutes to retrieve a car.
What is that if not deception?
You go ahead!
Regarding this so-called two-minute scam this man speaks of
according to what I know, advanced automated parking garages overseas
have reached automatic retrieval times between 45 seconds and 90 seconds.
Moreover, like an office building, how could there be only one elevator?
A developed automatic parking garage
wouldn't have just one operational elevator.
Therefore, his claim of a 90-minute wait time for 50 vehicles
does not stand.
Yes, yes.
I think that was well said.
But, I would like to ask if you know
what the drawback of an automatic parking system is?
It's noise.
Sounds from mechanical garages
are classified as low-frequency noise, which has high penetration capabilities.
Long-term exposure can be harmful to internal organs.
Sound levels in most common garages measure at 75 decibels (dB).
However, sound levels in mechanical parking garages
measure from 85 dB to 88 dB.
Yet, the lowest sound intensity level humans can tolerate at night is 50 dB.
Of course, there may be some exceptions among the elderly.
As a result, these are some of the complaints
from residents in the neighborhoods.
When a vehicle enters or exits the garage
noise from machinery, alarms, and directional commands
never stop and disturb the residents throughout the day.
Imagine if we were to mass-produce and construct these mechanical garages
thus adversely affecting people nearby.
What sort of outcomes and annoyances will they ultimately give rise to?
All of you are astute investors.
I believe you can imagine what the ultimate price will be.
What do you think, sir?
Everybody is here today to attend this technology forum.
I'm sure we all have come to a consensus.
And that is that there will always be two sides to every new invention.
The same goes for technology.
If you don't even have the courage to try
then you don't belong in science and technology.
The reason this project by Haoran Corporation is feasible
is because there are already successful cases abroad.
This saves us a lot of time on trial-and-error.
Moreover, as this man said
if we choose to give up and avoid an issue, rather than think of a solution
when we encounter a problem
we will never progress and advance.
We will always stay in the same spot.
Lastly, I would like to say that the latest advanced parking garages
manufactured by a research center in Guangdong
solve all of the aforementioned issues.
First, storage or retrieval can be completed between 80 to 110 seconds.
It is automatic, quick, and convenient.
Second, there is no need to wait.
Whether your vehicle is parked on the higher or the lower level
it can be ready when you arrive.
Third, regarding the noise issue
sound levels can be contained under 60 dB.
President Chen, if you are interested, you can contact the research center.
Okay, thank you.
Thank you, everyone.
What were you talking about earlier?
Just wait for our sponsor to come to us.
Next time, give me a heads up if you're about to put on an act.
I need to practice!
- You did great. - How was I great?
Hello, I am President Chen's assistant.
Are you busy? President Chen would like to see the two of you.
We happen to have some time.
All my life, as a businessman
I've been at a disadvantage when it comes to being educated and cultured.
It's a regret. I never even graduated primary school.
That's why every time I attend these events
I make a fool of myself.
I'm clearly already successful.
But, I still become the butt of other people's jokes.
Because the two of you pitched in
I got through this talk.
That's why, I have an idea.
Take someone like me who lacks education, intelligence, and quality...
I mean cultural quality...
A billionaire who built his business from scratch.
What is it that I need the most?
What I need the most is... talented people!
That's why, I'd like to ask if you two would be interested in joining my team?
Uh... We haven't graduated yet. We're still students.
- We also have papers coming up, so- - President Chen.
There's something I want to clarify.
The two of us are students.
That was an act we put on in there.
I was responsible for making you look bad, and he was there to save the day.
He didn't discuss it with me beforehand, so I--
Ding Ren Jian!
Let's... listen to President Chen.
What did you want to get out of doing this?
We wanted to get your attention and support.
Support?
Yes. You have great wealth, billions
while we have
intelligence and creativity, which are more valuable than wealth.
This is the business plan that we
Tang Xiao Gang and Ding Ren Jian, wrote.
Ding Ren Jian, why are you still doing homework?
Listen, I settled a huge deal! It's our huge deal.
What are you doing? I've been working on this the whole day.
I haven't saved it yet!
Who cares about saving it? Do you still remember President Chen?
That unsophisticated rich guy who didn't know a damn thing?
You're so short-sighted.
Yes, he doesn't know a damn thing about technology
but he is a good businessman!
I sold your most awesome design.
What right did you have to sell it? Did I say it was for sale?
It's going to be gift to my future wife.
Knock it off. What would you keep it?
Can you eat, drink, or play with it?
At most, it'll just earn you high marks when you graduate.
It would make you happy for a while
but become meaningless when you start working.
When you're middle-aged, hiding in your cubicle, bragging to a junior
"If I had listened to my buddy, there wouldn't be a Google now."
What use is that kind of nonsense?
Listen to me. Sell it while it's still worth something.
Maximize your profits.
When we have money, we can create our own business.
You'll create the technology, I'll manage operations for you. Okay?
- Let me think about it. - Think about what?
President Chen is flying in the afternoon and Lin Yue is waiting at the door.
Lin Yue knows about this too?
Of course. She's my girlfriend now.
What does she think?
Of course, she said you're amazing.
Amazing! Ding Ren Jian is amazing.
She even praised me?
Of course. Come on, let's go.
- Quickly! Go! - Okay, okay.
- Ding! - Lin Yue.
Do you know where Tang is?
I haven't seen him in two months.
Our dean calls every day saying he'll be kicked out if he doesn't show.
Aren't you two dating? You haven't seen him either?
I haven't seen him in two months either.
My calls don't go through. He hasn't replied through email or instant message.
Don't panic. I'm guessing he's busy working on our project.
I'll think of a way to reach him and have him contact you soon.
Ding.
You have to find him no matter what.
I can't wait much longer.
[Pregnant]
My gosh, you finally picked up. Where have you been?
President Chen said you disappeared after you received the first payment
and have been negotiating everywhere.
I went to him for 10 million yuan. He only gave one million yuan.
What can that do for us?
His existence is already impeding the development of our project.
We need to get rid of him as soon as possible.
Give me six months, okay? Six months!
I will bring back 10 million yuan, okay!
I'm not the one waiting for you to return. It's Lin Yue.
Lin Yue is pregnant.
Let her make the decision.
What are you saying? How can you even say that?
Listen up. I'm giving you three days.
If you come back
you'll still be my buddy.
Lin Yue.
Is he here?
So, what are you doing here?
I'm worried about you.
Lin Yue, what will you do if he doesn't come or if you lose the baby?
You can find someone else, then get married and have another child.
You still have me.
It is none of your concern.
Lin Yue.
I like you.
I've liked you since the first moment I saw you.
Tang
we're graduating today.
I received your diploma in your place.
Give me your address. I'll mail it to you.
If that's inconvenient, I'll keep it for you for now.
And...
Lin Yue wanted to keep the baby, but she had a miscarriage.
She doesn't want to leave the country, either.
She just wants to find a 9-to-5 job
and live a practical, yet happy life.
I plan to marry her.
It's not out of pity.
I know I like her more than you do.
My patent was also approved.
I'm going to have a lawyer transfer the ownership to you.
You'll then be able to use this patent to forge your business.
This isn't an exchange.
I'm hoping that when Lin Yue, and I see you again one day
you won't resent me for stealing her.
All right, I'm hanging up now.
We have to go look for jobs and housing.
Take care.
Excuse me, will we be continuing with the dress rehearsal?
Dad, I give you a thumbs up!
I never competed with anyone
because I never wanted the success you all wanted.
But the truth is, if I don't compete
then I'll be taken advantage of, humiliated, and walked all over.
That's so unfair.
I can't let that continue.
Tang Xiao Gang, from this moment on, we are no longer friends.
But, we're not strangers, either.
Sometimes, the people we know are more unfamiliar than strangers.
I will take back every single thing you took from me.
I will be more successful than you.
And you... betrayed me.
You will regret it.
If you want to come back to me one day
my door will always be open for you.
Dad! Ding Ren Jian! You're too cool!
Mom, why are there so few people here?
Where are the company's people?
Didn't you hear?
Tang Xiao Gang invited the shareholders and executives to his house for dinner.
Look at the people here today.
They're all undyingly loyal old-timers.
The way I see it, they won't be with the company much longer.
They're here to mourn the death of a friend.
Who knows if they're crying over the old man or for themselves.
Please leave my father's funeral. Leave. Get out.
Get out!
Zhi Wei, Zhi Wei, don't be like this.
Let your dad have some peace.
Zhi Wei, don't be like this.
My mom and I are sincerely here to grieve for Uncle Zhai.
Don't be like this.
We don't need you and your mother to shed crocodile tears.
If it wasn't for you guys
my dad wouldn't have suffered shock, triggering his heart attack.
You have it wrong, Zhi Wei.
My mom didn't remove Uncle Zhai from the chairman position.
We weren't the last ones at the hospital, upsetting Uncle Zhai.
It was Tang Xiao Gang.
I saw him leave the hospital.
That Tang fellow paid Dad a visit. What did he say to Dad?
Mom?
Mom!
Madam Zhai!
Since the Zhai family doesn't want you here, please leave.
When did you start speaking for the Zhai family?
You still don't know what you did wrong?
What?
Did Tang Xiao Gang not invite you to his party?
It seems you're not on his radar.
You thought the boyfriend you relied on had a powerful backer.
Who could've known he would drop dead so suddenly? Fortune plays us for fools.
The new boss resents you for siding with the old boss and doesn't want you.
An Qing Huan, stand on the wrong side, and you stand to lose everything.
Do you want to hear the two options I have for you?
The first option is to return to your original position
and continue to be my assistant.
You will still get your past salary, desk, credit cards, and salon cards.
I'll pretend like nothing happened.
What's the second option?
The second option?
Pack your things and get out!
Leave Zen Corporation.
And... never return to the culinary industry again.
I've been in the business for many years. I do have some connections.
Others must stop and think...
before hiring people who used to work for me.
Please take care of this.
All the guests have arrived and are waiting for us.
What's the matter?
Sorry, I'm a bit tired. Can I not go?
I invited all the guests here today.
And, tomorrow is the vote for the new chairman of the board.
Please don't ruin my mood.
Get changed quickly. I'll be waiting for you.
And, from now on, if any man holds your hand
I hope you will return to my side as fast as possible
because I'm not willing to wait for others.
Do you remember that funny thing we saw by the river last time?
I remember. It was hilarious.
How could he be so silly?
Exactly! Just like you.
The bench is taken already.
Let's go somewhere else.
I want to sit here. I'm so tired.
- Stop that. Let's go somewhere else. - I want to sit here.
- Someone's there. Don't be a grump. - No!
Quick! Sit down!
Lin Yue, why are you over here? You haven't been to class in days.
Lin Yue, say something.
It won't end well if you keep it all bottled in.
I can't find him.
Lin Yue, wake up, already!
Tang Xiao Gang is gone.
He left without a word to you.
You still fantasize that he will come back for you?
Why are you so immature?
Can't you cherish yourself more?
Don't cry.
Hello? Talk.
When he found out that Tang Xiao Gang was the last one to see his dad
he left and disappeared.
His mom told him that Tang Xiao Gang
went to the prosecutors to file a complaint against Chairman Tang
and knew the chairman used his shares as collateral
to back his son and keep New Power running.
Is that something a human would do? That was a ruthless move.
That's why I'm so worried.
With his temper, he must be out to kill now.
Kill what? Does he think he's a martial arts master?
Where are you? I can't talk.
Okay.
Chairman Tang.
- Sorry. - I just heard the double good news.
So your wedding day is coming up!
Why don't we see your soon-to-be wife?
Women take a long time.
She's getting ready. She'll be out soon.
Let's drink first.
Let me say hello to other guests.
Go ahead.
Everybody, feel free to eat and drink.
Dinner will begin soon.
- Chairman Tang. - Okay, we will.
Why are you here?
Is your memory that bad?
I just moved out of here.
I'm here to return the key.
Chairman Tang, let's raise our glasses.
Double congratulations.
Isn't the new house I gave you even better?
Only if you would come.
When I take care of this mess with Zen Corporation tomorrow
I'll come over, okay?
Okay, I'll be waiting.
Chairman of the board.
How old is she exactly?
She could be your aunt.
Everybody, this is my fiancée, Lin Yue.
Darling, let's raise a glass to everyone.
Welcome, everybody.
- Thank you, Chairman Tang. - Cheers.
Cheers...
- Zhai Zhi Wei! Calm down! - What are you doing?
It's none of your business. Go away!
One should bide their time for the right moment for revenge!
Block his way!
I've never been one to wait.
You dare dodge my punch?
No repeats. I'm telling you.
Starting today, I won't repeat any mistakes!
Nobody can hit me a second time!
Just try standing in my way!
Amazing!
You sure can fight!
Why didn't you hit back when Tang Xiao Gang hit you last time?
You just took it like a coward.
I was keeping a low profile.
Masters don't show off their skills so easily.
What do we do about this assassin?
Take him away! Quick!
Others hit on girls while the two of us are flirting with a boy.
What's wrong with you guys? Let me go!
Is there a good chance that if we let you go
you'll be possessed by a Japanese samurai ghost again
and you'll head off to seek revenge?
Have you been watching too many movies? You even had a katana.
You! Release me before I really get angry.
That's not happening.
I punched you just now.
If I release you, you'll definitely punch me immediately.
Would I make such an unfavorable deal?
Are you two even my friends?
Don't you know who left my family in poverty and ruin?
We do. That's why we're stopping you.
I know Tang Xiao Gang better than you do.
I'm not looking down on you.
His bodyguards are ex-special forces soldiers.
You can't even take one punch from me. You won't be able to get close to him.
Even if you got away with it, you would just go down with him.
What if something were to happen to your mom after hearing about that?
You're a businessman. Would you make this one-for-two deal?
Even on the battlefield
hand-to-hand combat is the stupidest method.
Because we think of you as a friend, we cuffed you here
to prevent you from doing something stupid.
Think about it.
Your family just experienced so much misfortune.
There are a bunch of messes waiting for you to clean them up.
You also need to take care of your mom.
Most importantly, there are two people greedily eying your dad's position.
Are you going to allow that to happen?
I don't allow it! But what can I do?
My dad paid with his life to protect me.
I can't just stand by! I don't have any more cards to play!
Yes, you do. You have one more trump card left.
[Zen Culinary Corporation Mobile Voting System]
[Zen Culinary Corporation Board Chairman Election Results]
[Tang Xiao Gang] [Qin Zhen]
There's one vote left. Who is it?
What kind of stupid system is this?
I don't want to vote for either of these two.
How do I vote for myself?
Hey...
I've been so busy that I forgot.
Bastian gave me the privilege to vote.
What's the matter? Is there a rule that says we can't vote for ourselves?
It's a tie today.
According to the board's bylaws
that means there's no way to select a new chairman.
Then, haven't we all wasted our time today?
Hello?
