The Interpreter
- Episode 3 -
- Let's get started.- [French]... is located outside the walls.
[French] Because in the 18th century, Paris is surrounded with a wall opened with only two doors.
[French] Merchandise, particularly wine, which is an everyday drink,
[French] can only enter through these doors.
[French] This is the reason that explains the success–
I'm sorry.
Stop.
Is there a 'sorry' in the article?
Huang Li Li, go to Hao Zhe's group. You will be in a group of 3.
You come with me.
Director, I'm sorry.
Why didn't you report that you were sick?
You said that personal reasons cannot interfere with work.
Isn't working while sick compromising your work? You will drag down your partner.
I will not be a burden to my partner. I will complete my assignment while biting the bullet.
Don't bother! When on assignment, your body does not belong to yourself.
Simply completing your task will not earn you a praise from I.A.I.
If you didn't report it to your superior and a problem happens, you can't afford the consequences.
Director, it won't happen next time.
There won't be a next time.
38.5 degrees Celsius. I don't care what method you use;
you are not allowed to enter the training room, unless you are under 37.2 degrees Celsius.
I will mark you absent if you don't come back.
I know I was wrong, so please don't count me as absent and let me go back to class.
Don't you cry. If you cry, I'll count once as twice and if you don't come for one day, you'll be eliminated.
- I'm not crying - Take this.
[37.6 degrees Celsius]
I can't wait. I'm going to try it again.
How can it work so quickly? You only took the medicine 15 minutes ago.
It doesn't start working until after an hour.
But I can't wait right now.
If I keep waiting, I will be dismissed. Why am I getting a fever right now of all times?!
This won't do. I will ask the Devil for a leave on your behalf.
Don't. Don't. Don't. Don't.
You must not go, look...
Look, I can stand. I'm fine. I can even go in circles.
Please don't tell the Devil.
I'm fine. You guys go to work.
Go; don't stay here.
Qiao Fei! Qiao Fei, are you here?
Qiao Fei! Qiao Fei!
Qiao Fei! Qiao Fei! Qiao Fei!
Qiao Fei!
Are you okay, Qiao Fei?
How did I fall asleep?
- Yes, why are you sleeping here? - I don't know. I...
I got drowsy after taking medicine and fell asleep.
How long was I asleep?
Why do you still have a fever?
That's fine, fine, fine. Just leave it; working hours already ended a half an hour ago.
Director Cheng already took the other recruits out for a meal.
He told me to come find you.
He left? So do I count as absent?
I dare not ask. Why don't you ask instead?
Gao Jia Ming, the truth is, they chose me over you
because you have too little influence.
Doing public service is something that those businessmen expected after donating their money.
Since we are off work, everyone should relax.
Is your fever gone, Student Qiao?
It's gone, Director. Look.
May I come to work tomorrow?
No matter how busy you are, you should make sure to drink lots of water.
When you are not feeling well in anyway, remember that the office has a medicine cabinet.
Thank you, Director.
I know that behind my back, you guys have been calling me the "Devil."
But I personally think,
that I'm pretty easy-going.
Alright, stop staring.
There are no secrets in I.A.I.
Alright, stop teasing them.
When we were first recruited, didn't we also make up nicknames for Director Tian?
What I want to say is,
that their nickname has no originality.
Understood, Director.
Next time, I will definitely create a stage name with more originality for you.
Yes, a stage name.
How about calling you Cheng Jia Yang Little Lily?
Do you remember that when we first started at I.A.I.?
Director Tian always said that we had an accent (when speaking French).
Then I asked Jia Yang, how to speak French with the proper accent.
- Do you remember?- Yeah.
Your Director Cheng sternly told me:
"If you want to talk like a French person, your lips...
must be pushed out a little.
Then do the figure 7 with your right hand.
Point it towards your collar bone.
When talking, pretend that you have an unremovable glob of phlegm in your throat.
Move your hand back and forth and writing the number seven while speaking."
That's it.
When talking like this, even my Mandarin has a Parisian accent.
A friendly reminder,
When you are running high on emotion...
you can add this motion to your left hand. Alternate between your two hands.
Since we are all having a good time, Director should treat us
- for dinner. - Great idea.
Of course, I want to treat you all to a big meal.
But my children, you must work.
Appetizer, main course, dessert. Will you guys have time to be trained after we eat?
Serve the meal.
Dad, why can't you believe him for once?
How can I believe him?
I see that you are possessed.
You have so many other good options, why must you choose a fake rich second generation.
What is Gao Jia Ming's status? Back in the days, his dad was just a chauffeur at I.A.I.
But his dad couldn't even drive the car well.
Otherwise, how could his parents have died in a car accident?
Do you really believe that since Cheng Si Yuan raised him, he became part of the Cheng family?
Keep dreaming! Cheng Jia Yang is the successor.
The Cheng family's business and money all belongs to Cheng Jia Yang.
This has nothing to do with the family name or whether Jia Ming has money.
I don't need those.
Money isn't an issue, but you should know why I object to it.
Because you are not in his heart!
You've liked him and pursued him for so many years. For his projects...
you suddenly came back home and discuss business with me
to give him a surprise. But what about him? What has he done for you?
Remember! Gao Jia Ming doesn't have Wen Xiao Hua in his heart.
You're just prejudiced against him.
Jia Ming?
Why are you here? Did Jia Yang tell you I've come back?
I didn't know that you'd returned. Was it successful?
Originally, I wanted to give you a surprise.
But now, there's been a problem. It's a good thing you came over today.
Talk to my dad about your thoughts.
Right.
I was here to talk to Uncle about my thoughts.
Uncle Wen, so tell me, taking my project to finance my opponent,
what kind of person can do such a thing?
What's wrong with it?
The money is mine. I can spend it however I like.
I can give it to whomever I want.
Dad, don't be like this.
Child, aren't you a bit naive?
Even if you help him achieve his research, he will never live with you in Switzerland.
If he really wanted to live with you, then why do research first?
He wants to do research because he has his eyes on your dad's money!
Gao Jing Ming, Cheng Si Yuan has raised you for over 20 years.
How come he wasn't able to remove the peasant in you?
- Can you tell? - Yes!
Uncle Wen, you shouldn't say that.
Based on Wen Xiao Hua's looks, personality, education, as well as your money,
all are her pros.
I choose Xiao Hua because I am attracted by her pros.
But it just happened that money is her biggest pro.
Jia Ming! Don't say things like that!
Then what should I say?
Uncle Wen even brought up my dead father,
what else can I say?
Dad,
you've watched Jia Ming grow up.
He always talks like this. It doesn't mean that he means it.
It's not like that?
Your dad is sitting in his own home,
and is being humiliated by this runt of the litter.
I want to let you see what kind of person he is!
How can he be so bold?
He doesn't even want to have anything to do with us
or he wouldn't be so harsh even if you asked him to!
You are experienced in life, Uncle Wen, Uncle Wen.
Why do you act like a child?
I have no problem in marrying Xiao Hua for money.
I also think the student will become more superior than the master without a doubt.
I'm not a hypocrite. I'm a real scoundrel.
But, at least, I admit it.
But you, you always stab people in the back. It's not good, is it?
That's enough, Jia Ming. Don't speak, anymore.
We'll take care of our own problems.
There's no "our own problems." There's only the problems of my family and your family.
So you've never had any feelings for me from the start?
Xiao Hua, can you please be clear about it?
Have you ever heard me mentioning my feelings for you?
You have other choices, listen to your dad's advice.
At least, regarding this matter, my thoughts are the same as his.
Then what were we all these years?
We will have a future together. You just need to believe in this point.
There will be no future. From the beginning, it's been all you, yourself.
I've never had any feelings.
You bastard.
Xiao Hua! Xiao Hua,
isn't his attitude clear enough, right?!
How long are you going to help him humiliate me?
There are so many suitors who have liked you, but you must want him.
Why torture yourself?!
I know what you are about to say.
I said everything I came to say. You are about to tell me to get out, aren't you?
Keep an eye on your daughter. She's the one who mentions breaking up or getting back together.
Why can't you keep your word?
We are breaking up. For good this time.
This time, it counts.
Don't get mad. Don't get mad.
Jia Ming!
Jia Ming,
why didn't you call before coming over?
Today is not a family visit day.
I don't have the responsibility to go home.
Why didn't you tell him to stay? You didn't even greet him.
Your age total is about 90 years.
Until when are you going to keep fighting?
If he wants to stay, he'll do so.
Should I beg him?
You will drive your son crazy soon.
Jin Bao, drive.
Okay.
The following night after tomorrow,
the Chinese Federation of Small Enterprise will receive a trade mission from France.
It will be a casual commerce banquet. Institute of Advanced Interpretation plans to apply for
you to attend as employees.
Are we going as interpreters? Do we have a simultaneous or consecutive interpretation mission?
No.
Senior interpreters will be responsible for interpretations in contracts and meetings.
When you see a Chinese lady and a French lady wanting to talk about clothes, bags, or shoes
but have difficulty understanding each other, you can go help them communicate.
Then it's just like a waitress.
A waitress can stand for a whole night with heels on.
Can you?
Why don't you just embed me into the ground then?
Even though it's a casual commerce banquet,
I want you to practice according to the standard to welcome the French prime minister.
Everyone has to wear formal clothes. Ladies have to wear light makeup.
You can't wear your outfit for the interview this time.
May I wear casual leather shoes?
Formal dress code.
Do we need to wear makeup? I don't usually wear any.
Since you all chose this profession,
you represent not only yourself anymore, many times.
There are some events where you may need to wear makeup,
so as to be respectful, you must wear it.
The makeup should match the event.
You guys represent our nation's image.
Let's do it next time. One at a time, practice individually.
You push them all out all of a sudden;
especially, some people may not be able to enter into the banquet at the end.
There is no need.
Alright, I will have a word with Director Tian when I get back.
They might not be capable of attending these kinds of events.
Don't.
Give us a day to prepare.
Then, you can test us a day later. If we're not qualified, you can forget about it.
- Yes.- Yes.
- That will do, right? - Yes.
It's too late. I need to apply and arrange in advance.
Then, what about one night?
Just one night, you come to check on us tomorrow morning.
Yes, just give us a chance.
Deal.
Are you done crying?
Dad.
Is it worth to cry for Gao Jia Ming?
I've looked over Zhou Nan's proposal.
It is a good idea.
Why don't you set a time and we can discuss it.
Okay.
[Future Star: Wu Jia Yi]
Timing and Subtitles brought to you by the Lost in Translation Team @Viki
Alright. Stop. Let's do the next scene.
Let's see the list.
Hello, I am Wu Jia Yi's assistant, Hua Hua.
I'm looking for Ms. Wu Jia Yi.
Are you looking for Sis Jia Yi for a movie or advertisement shoot?
Sis Jia Yi's schedule is full.
Sorry, neither.
We met at the police station before. I am...
Police station?
Okay, please wait a moment.
Sis Jia Yi, you have a call.
Hello? Who is this?
Hello, Miss Wu.
We met at the police station last time. Do you still remember?
I do.
I would like to ask you out to eat dinner this weekend.
Are you free?
Okay, I don't have to film this weekend.
Then, let's make it tomorrow.
That's great.
I'll send you the address later.
Okay.
Oh, right! What's your name?
My surname is Gao. My name is Gao Jia Ming.
Then, I'll see you tomorrow.
Gao Jia Ming! You finally called me.
You're not coming to help?
Fine! Don't come to me when you need help translating any documents for your company.
That's set. I will see you tomorrow night.
This guy. Dare not to come and help.
Benoit?
Yes, he had the nerve to ask me for performance fees.
He wishes. Doesn't he know about I.A.I.'s tradition?
Let's be clear. This is not I.A.I.'s tradition.
This is a tradition trick that you, Cheng Jia Yang, thought of.
What a good idea! We don't need to worry about them making mistakes, and at the same time,
we can train the members.
It doesn't cost much to find a French man to act as a client.
Is Old Tian going to cover part of that cost for you?
Old Tian?
Ever since he figured out that I teach these exercises, he won't bring his wallet when he leaves his house.
The pressure from this training really took off when you created the fake reception.
Kids nowadays aren't as naive as when we were kids.
If you don't manage to set up a real setting, who will believe you?
You are wasting money.
Leave him. This is his perverted pleasure.
He really loves to torment our interns.
Did you know I have a new nickname? The Devil.
Is this okay? This knot is suitable for silk ties.
The knot I had before was fine. It looked good.
Are you fixing your tie the way your Shao Feng Team Captain taught you? (Shao Feng Team is a communist organization for youths)
There are many different ways to tie a tie. Why did you have to pick the double cross knot?
The Windsor knot is pretty nice. It also sounds elegant.
I tried all the methods you guys found online.
Don't forget that we have a lot of recent graduates who don't know how to tie a tie.
That's why, I chose it.
The easy and simple double cross knot.
It sounds very elegant as well.
Enough, Hao Zhe.
Listen to Qiao Fei. She didn't know at first, but after trying for a whole night,
she was able to do it in one try. That is why, she recommended this one.
Hurry!
Check my makeup.
Does it fit what you said before?
Make up fit for a spokesperson for Department of Foreign Affairs.
Close your eyes.
I'm going to spray it, okay?
What is that?
To you, the effect is just like sulfate.
It's makeup remover. Look at your makeup. I will change it up a little.
- You scared me. - Don't get so nervous.
Hao Zhe.
Look at your pants.
Here should do.
Hey! These are new pants!
Okay.
Who's going to look at your legs and check for pen marks?
Pants of that length aren't in style anymore.
You need to pull up a bit, so it will look more energetic.
Get someone to fix it for you.
It's past 8 o'clock already. The Devil will be here soon and we haven't discussed table etiquette.
What do we do?
Okay, everyone relax.
Now, we are getting to the most important and complicated part, which is table etiquette.
You all want to know, right?
- Do tell.- Hurry and say it, don't keep us in suspense.
It is... when you see the dish being served,
you first observe it.
Don't be the first one to eat it.
Observe, and then,
eat after someone else does. - Ahh...
Don't laugh. This is a serious matter, okay?
This is the most sincere and honest truth.
- Right? - Yeah.
You all don't need to be so nervous. I came to hand in the course material.
But I heard you guys have dressed up, so I came to take a look.
Director Cheng will still be the one observing you.
If it is Teacher Wen, we wouldn't be nervous.
Are we qualified?
How did you do it?
Secret.
I can guarantee that none of the stuff you're worried about will happen.
Is that so? I'm most worried about you.
I can see others' preparation. What about you?
You've seen the results from my efforts and you're still worried about me?
If at any
time you feel you cannot solve the problem,
let me know.
We got it, Director. When is the reception?
Tomorrow night, at 8 p.m.
Can you stop it?
Jia Ming,
I was wrong. I apologize.
I was too impulsive.
I am in an event for the Institute of Advanced Interpretation now.
It's close to the hospital. Why don't we meet up and talk?
I'm not at the hospital.
I am right downtown so I am close to anything.
It's not convenient for me. I'm hanging up.
Send it over there. There are more people there.
To be honest,
the quality of the Interns
is much better than last year.
Who do you mean?
That girl over there.
She's so beautiful.
I seem to have met her somewhere.
In a dream and she was speaking French.
Introduce me.
Okay.
- You said so. - I said it.
Alright, then.
Xiao Hua, what's wrong?
You don't seem to be in a good mood.
Nothing. I'm just tired.
Jia Yang, let me be alone for a while.
- Sorry. Sorry.- Sorry.
- Are you alright? It's fine.- Yes.
Jia Yang!
Your friend and opponent is here.
- How are you?- How are you?
Benoit?
You! I am doing you a big favor.
You have to give me 40% off on a translating job.
No way. I like to make money from you guys who are unscrupulous businessmen.
Looks like I will need to prepare my own translators.
Is there anyone who is good among your Interns?
You dare to poach from I.A.I.?
Be careful, Director Cheng.
I am a French Businessman who met you the first time and
an important guest.
So what?
You don't have surgery today, do you?
Surgery is not as important as a beautiful woman.
Give it a taste.
Have you seen the American TV Series, "Hannibal"?
There is a doctor in that series just like me.
Clothed very well, and seems very professional.
Every Sunday, from a deck of his client's business cards,
he picks out a business card. And in the end...
What happens at the end?
- In the end, on his dinner table, you find an extra dish of human meat. - Eww...
It is about that big.
How freaky!
Hmm, you wouldn't eat me up as a piece of meat, right?
I want your heart.
Finally, she has made some progress.
What is wrong with you?
Enough. Have less. Your stomach is not too good.
I will go get you a glass of water.
Jia Yang.
I am not in a good mood because I had a fight with your brother.
You really don't need to worry about me.
What's with him?
Do you think we are still a couple?
We can never meet up. And I am always the one who take the initiative to pursue him,
but he still rejected me.
Why is he like that?
This makes me really sad.
Jia Ming acting this way,
is it because he knows how much I love him?
When have you ever seen me acting this way?
For him,
I've tried to be accommodating with his interests.
Do you want me to talk to him?
No.
I love him despite my lack of self-respect. I don't want to involve you, too.
Go do your job, Jia Yang. You really don't need to worry about me.
- You being this way, how can I...- Jia Yang.
I am really in a very bad mood tonight.
I don't need anyone to pity me.
I am not being sympathetic.
Please let me be by myself in peace.
From an outside company...
Let's arrange to meet tomorrow night.
I need to think about it, first.
You are thinking too much.
Is there a translator who doesn't need a shortcut?
Don't you need the money?
Get out.
- Director... - Don't say anything.
Don't leave the premises. Come and see me after you are done.
[Ellu Restaurant]
Let me explain, he wants me to work part-time for him.
Buckle up.
I know that I.A.I. has an unofficial policy of
no other part-time job allowed while on probation.
But afterwards, it's fine. It's work. After probation, I plan on...
After probation?
Stop worrying about other people's business and don't think too highly of yourself.
First round of elimination will get rid of two thirds of recruits.
The first to go will be people like you. People who have no clear goals, and fall for the highest bidder.
He was only giving me an interview.
Why would he plan an interview at a hotel and at night.
He wasn't that serious about what he said.
If we don't meet at night, are we supposed to meet during the day when I'm working?
So I don't need to go to work. I can go do the interview?
You sure know how to give a rebuttal.
Did you come to I.A.I. to get gilded with a layer of gold? ('Layer of gold' refers to gaining more prestige)
With a layer of gold from I.A.I., you'll go and commit scams and fraud.
Or do you want to use I.A.I. as a platform to develop your own network?
Why do you always think about me in the worst way possible? Is everything I do wrong?
Yes, I admit. I arrived late.
I gossiped about you behind your back. I admit to all of that. How about you?
You poured wine all over me and I got sent to the police station. Are you blaming me for that, too?
Then are you currently a wine taster at the winery or my intern?
If you have issues with me, then leave immediately.
Your personal life has nothing to do with me.
Don't worry.
As long as it doesn't affect the Institute's tenets, I have no interest in anyone's personal life.
Hello, Uncle Wen. How do you do?
The I.A.I.'s activity is over. Xiao Hua went back already.
She hasn't reached home?
It's okay. Please say.
Okay. I'll take care of this matter.
Goodbye, Uncle.
Hurry and ask Director Tian for a group transfer.
Otherwise, you'll just be waiting for me to eliminate you.
Stop the car. My house is in Chaojiadu in the opposite direction.
Stop the car.
Thank you, Director.
Hey! Send me a text message when you get home.
Hey!
Hello? Who's this?
It's me. Jia Yi.
Jia Yi? How come you changed your phone number?
Change what? This is my new boyfriend's number.
You're with your new boyfriend? When did you two get together?
Just now and I was just about to tell you.
Hey! If you have nothing on, why don't you come over to find me?
I'm at Kite Wine Bar. Hurry over. I'm waiting for you.
Okay. I'll go over for a warm drink.
You'd better send me home after. Don't value guys over friends.
I told you I don't like sharing my phone.
My phone's battery is dead. Can't I use it?
I know you're a doctor,
and you may get important calls. Is that why you don't want me using it?
It really isn't because of that.
- Then why?- There is no why.
I just don't like other people using my phone.
Not even me?
No.[Cheng Jia Yang calling]
I... don't like women who are too possessive.
If you can't even change this, then it's best that we don't get together.
You! We just got together and you're talking about breaking up?
Do you not like me?
Of course, I like you! You're so pretty.
My girlfriend's here.
Hey, darling. Here.
Let me introduce to you. This is the boyfriend that I told you about. Gao Jia Ming.
Jia Ming, this is the girlfriend I told you about. Qiao Fei.
Say hello.
Hello.
Nice to meet you for the first time. My name's Gao Jia Ming.
Don't just stand there. Let's order some drinks.
Jia Yi, I still have an urgent case back in the hospital. I need to rush back.
Then if you're free, give me a call.
My new boyfriend's got long legs, that's why he leaves so fast. Come, sit.
My new boyfriend isn't too bad, right?
He is a Neurosurgeon and his family is quite rich.
