Episode 3
Hey, are you stupid? How can you talk to me like that?
I told you that I m sorry.
Hello? Yes, yes.
Sister, he is looking for trouble, can't you understand that?
Get up!
Brother Mochen.
Brother, why didn't you leave?
You wish me gone so badly?
What's up with you two? Didn't get any sleep all night?`
No, we have that shop.
So we are really busy with the shop.
Talking about that!
We are busy to get scorned by people and managing the crisis here.
Sister Qian...
Last time I saw you, you were soaking wet, this time you two all have black eyes.
You are wasting your life, you know that?
I m out of here.
Bye brother Mochen.
Brother, I m so tired right now, I feel like I m between waking up and fall asleep.
That, if I ever offended you, please forgive me.
Lin Qian.
Sit down.
Just say what you want to say.
Do you know Louis Vuitton?
Of course I know.
That Galliano and my favorite Simon all work for Louis Vuitton.
Their US branch is looking for assistant designer.
I showed your design to their executive.
And they are looking forward to talk to you in person.
The possibility of you staying in Louis Vuitton.
At least over 80%.
Really?
They are waiting for my email to confirm.
I will give you ten minutes to decide.
Ten minutes?
How can I decide in that short of time?
You need to consider this?
Of course.
Although I know i will be learning a lot.
And getting to know the best design in this world.
But...
But that's your dream.
Brother, don't push me.
I won't push you to make your decision.
Great, that's good.
You have nine minutes.
No rush.
Brother this is no fun.
We have known each other for many years.
For me, he is special.
He helped so many people.
Everyone speak very highly of him.
He is the kindest and most thoughtful person I know.
Then who wants him dead?
You probably won't believe this.
This is a suicide or an accident.
Time is up.
You just missed the best opportunity of your life.
Brother, I don't think so.
If i just graduated, I will go for sure.
But now I have my own store.
It's hard work and didn't get me a lot of money.
But at least I will do my own design.
It's hard work and it's not making money.
Then why are you doing it?
You are wasting your talent and your life.
It's not wasting my talent and life if I m someone's little assistant?
And the most important thing for me.
Is the most precious thing for a designer.
The most precious thing of a designer.
What's that?
Freedom.
Plane ticket.
Go back to America with me.
I will find out the real reason of your brother's death.
This is very important for me.
I don't believe someone who is so strict with himself.
Will die of DUI.
We are on the same page for this.
If we are going to investigate.
We have to start from the people around him.
Then you investigated me too?
I won't trust anyone that easily.
If I don't investigate.
I will not find out that someone is starting a riot at Wenda.
And I won't be able to text you.
Then what did you find out?
Who will benefit the most out Li Zhiqian's death?
You call me here in such big rain.
Why can't you discuss this over the phone?
It's nice to have a rainy day.
A lot of things is becoming more clear.
Suddenly, Li Zhicheng jumped out from Aida.
Barely breathing, you can't even kill them with your feet.
Later, this thing will be on the news.
Qualification report.
The clothing industry is always competitive in Linhai city.
Wenda was the biggest back in those days.
After the death of Li Zhiqian.
Xinbaorui and Simiqi's market expanded so quickly.
Now they actually surpassed Wenda.
Last time the workers riot.
They were probably behind it.
Xinbaorui and Simeiqi looks like.
Two competitors.
But I found out.
Ning Weikai and Chen Zheng were drinking and talking business.
And I even heard that.
They will fight with Wenda together.
That's why I would send you the text.
I will try to save Wenda.
No matter what I need to do.
Even if i m the only one left here.
I will fight with them to the end.
If your brother can hear you up there.
He will be very glad.
For Wenda, he has many big plans.
And you are his proud brother, wolf of the southern west.
He told me not only once.
He will wait for you.
And fight with you side by side.
Then what's the plan next?
I...
I will tell you later.
Brother.
You are back finally.
Let's go home.
I won't!
Qian.
Do you have any idea how important this opportuniy is?
Do you know how many strings I have to pull to get that?
If you don't listen to me this time.
From now on, I won't involved in any of your business.
Brother, I appreciate very much for this opportunity.
But you can't...you can't threaten me.
You have been managing me ever since i was a little kid.
It's enough that you managing my life.
But stop try to managing my job.
I m your brother.
And I m your sister.
Why don't you respect my choice?
Life is full of choices.
Now the two choice you are facing.
Will decide two paths of your life.
I wish you can make a better choice.
I won't go, I don't want to go.
I won't push you.
I will leave the ticket here.
You think about it.
Brother. Brother!
Qianqian.
I think your brother is making a very good point.
I really think this ticket.
Will decide your life in a different way.
Think about it, Louis Vuitton.
One of the third biggest luxurious companies in this world.
How many designers will kill for this opportunity.
Think about it.
How are you in the army for these years?
No one heard from you except big brother.
These years, how did he treat our brother?
Brother always wanted our brother to inherit his business.
So he gave him a lot of pressure.
They always have different opinions on managing.
Pulled here. I don't want to go home now.
Where are you going?
I have something to do.
Brother.
Dad.
Second brother, still won't come back.
Don't worry.
He knew what he need to do.
The toxic clothing.
This time Quality Inspect Bureau's snap check.
Covered about 30 clothing factory in Linhai City.
Wenda's problem is.
A batch of kid clothing that will be shipped to Europe.
The shrinkage of the underclothes are too high.
Unlike what they said, the carcinogen problem is the other small factory's problem.
The report of Quality Inspect Bureau's title is.
Linhai city's company like Wenda Zhaike Sufeng
About the carcinogen, folmaldehyde content and shrinkage quality problems etc.
They failed to meet the national quality standard.
But, the media only noticed two key words.
Wenda, and fabric carcinogen.
We have declared the problem on weibo.
But it didn't work at all.
An hour after the news, our stock price starts to go down.
And there's no sign of stopping it.
I m assuming when the market opens tomorrow, it will look worse.
I heard that our board member Li.
Called back his little son Li Zhicheng.
And just a few days earlier, he has arrived in Linhai city.
Then about this.
I m curious to know Li Zhicheng's opinion.
But now what we are facing is very technical problems.
It must be difficult for him too.
That's why he hid away, and leave us to deal with this.
Exactly.
I think.
Yanzhi, don't explain.
You keep on.
That's why you want my card yesterday.
Your position is bit in the corner and more quite.
Since you came to our company, the whole company's operating style went straight up to military standard.
I want to tell you something.
They are all our people. you can talk.
Why didn't you let me defend you?
Now the outside is a mess.
And even inside, the company has all kinds of rumor going around.
When are you planning to make an appearance?
The time is not here yet.
Now we want to get the suspect out of the cave.
What do you think about the fabric?
Since Wenda was established.
There has never been a problem of shrinkage problem.
And the quality report came out only 24 hours.
The media is all over it.
Maybe we are being too neglective.
Neglective?
Don't you think the timing is too on point?
You mean all this, is plotted?
Boss Gu, you called me in a rush, what's up?
I want to ask you.
Why is there a shrinkage problem in our company?
Boss Gu, you should ask the quality control depart ment about this.
This time we changed to a new supplier and nobody told our department about this.
The executive designer was not satisfied with the fabric before.
And he appointed us the new supplier.
I have nothing to do with this.
Zhang Hao appointed the new fabric.
And only that supplier has what he wanted. He spent almost 6 months inspect that company.
Do you remember on what day you met that supplier?
I remember, it was17.
What's the weather that day?
Sunny day.
Is the light too bright?
Here, have some drink.
Boss Gu, you have any iced ones?
Yes, here, i will get it for you.
Thanks./
Here.
Director Zhang, what's your birthday.
March 15.
I heard that you were married, what's the date of your marriage anniversary?
May 27.
Now tell me, when did you meet the fabric supplier?
The supplier? I remember.
It was 17.
What's the weather of that day?
It's rainning.
Boss Gu.
Is it a bit over to do that?
Didn't boss Li call his son back?
Why didn't he show up now?
It's much easier to do nothing.
How did you know that Boss Gu is not operating this because of him?
Zhang Hao's suspect is obvious.
So now what we should do is, to find out who is behind him.
Think about this.
If Wenda closed, who will benefit the most?
Xinbaorui and Simeiqi.
They have been fighting with our market.
Now we are clear about the competitor.
Shouldn't you come out and managing the situation now?
Not yet.
Plane ticket.
Yayi, should i cut this too?
Okay, whatever, it's your money.
Is this Miss Lin Qian?
Yes.
This is police station of Binhe Road.
There was a violent incedent
happened in Wenda. We might need your help to investigate.
Ok ok ok, I'm leaving right away.
Officer,
we did not start it with him.
Absolutely not, officer.
We are law-obeying citizens.
This guy doesn't like us,
so he beat my friend up.
Look at my arm, I can't even lift it.
-Look at it. -Look at it!
Officer, I am Lin Qian.
Hello, thank you for coming.
I need to confirm something with you.
That day, I was going to Wenda for some business.
I ran into them on my way out.
I didn't know them at all. They smashed my car,
and stabbed my tires.
They had knives in hands.
They pointed the knives at me and told me that they will ruin my face.
It was so scary.
I was lucky to have...this head of Wenda's security
there helping me. He saved me.
If it wasn't for him, I don't know what would happen to a girl like me.
He also walked me home.
Based on what you said,
that wasn't a fight, he was only trying to be helpful.
Of course, I didn't fight! I am a girl, how could I fight them?
Officer, you can't just listen to her.
They know each other. You can't believe her.
-He and I didn't even know you! -(yelling)
How could you say that!?
Is he your boyfriend?
No. How could he be my boyfriend?
You've never met before?
I don't know her.
I'm telling you I saw it.
I saw the two of them holding hands; and he's still saying she isn't his girlfriend.
Enough.
Can someone in your family be a witness? What about you guys?
Wait, policeman...sir,
Look at this elbow, doesn't it count as evidence?
Look, my elbow used to be in good shape.
Now look at it. I can't even lift it anymore.
Raising it makes my shoulder hurt so bad.
Don't hit me! Don't hit me.
It looks like the injury to your shoulder is healed.
Uh.....uh....uh...
Thank you for getting me out of trouble.
No need. I was just doing my duty as a citizen.
Then, I...
So you can deal with this yourself even if I'm not here, right?
Correct.
You're not at all modest.
Li Zhicheng [means 'strict honesty].
My name.
You're called Li Zhicheng?
Oh right, I added you on WeChat [Chinese texting app] , but your name was just dashes.
And I didn't know what your name was.
I'll remember it. Li Zhicheng.
According to the report, Wenda, Zhaike, Shufeng and other companies
Right now, we can only cooperate with one another.
Apart from this, there's no other way out.
This time, I'll be in front, directing.
According to what I say, you do your best to carry it out.
...will cooperate in the investigation...
and assist in dealing with the inferior quality problems, and give a statement to consumers.
I have a proposal.
GC, on their part, will definitely reject this batch of children's clothing.
Couldn't we privately
sell these to retailer?
If we do this, we can regain some of our capital.
And alleviate some of the pressure on our capital funds.
We can't do this. The news about this batch of children's clothing has already been exposed in the media.
If the media finds out that we again put this on the market,
at that point, I'm afraid the pressure from public opinion will be even greater.
We're all very clear that
this batch of children's clothing doesn't cause cancer.
It's just a shrinkage problem.
I'll say it again. Putting this quality of clothing on the market is the best thing.
True.
Right now the pressure on our business is so great,
this is a way to reduce that pressure,
But if anyone has a better idea, you can bring it up now.
If this won't do,
you can bring the number two in the Li family to come in and resolve it.
First, my viewpoint on this compared to Qi....
I haven't thought it through well you. The rest of you go ahead.
Actually, what everyone has said today has a lot of merit.
We have to think about what perspective we use to resolve this problem.
Actually, I think we...
How about this? We'll vote by a show of hands.
For those of you who agree with the viewpoint of what Manager Zhang just said,
we'll raise our hands, okay?
Since the majority agrees,
then for the benefit of Wenda's ability to continue operating,
we'll handle the matter this way, okay?
- Okay. - Yes. - Agreed.
Then, Manager Zhang,
we'll hand over the responsibility for this matter to you.
- Alright? - Okay.
Let's encourage him with applause.
No, no, no. President Xue,
Tonight, I will arrange to deal with this matter.
Subtitles brought to you by the Time of Our Life Team @ Viki
Do you understand?
- Let's do it. - Yes, sir.
Wait a second. Why didn't you let me oppose it.
If this matter gets dragged out by the media,
Wenda will be on its last legs with no hope to turn it around, do you understand that?
Don't worry. I'm well aware of the situation.
Uh, do have something else prepared?
So you still don't intend to appear in person?
You don't need to worry. When the time comes, you'll find out.
When the time times, I'll know it...
Sister Grace, President Chen is here.
A rare visitor. Take that away.
Why have you come?
I only have half an our; I have to go to a meeting in a while.
Ok. I was going to post a clarification on H magazine.
And advertise Si Meiqi's product.
Didn't you believe in advertising on the internet?
Why all of sudden taking an interest in us paper media?
What are all these?
These are the fabrics Wenda gave us. Their employee took my order behind their backs.
And there were problems with the fabrics.
But the company was quite nice,
they compensate me with these fabrics.
I went online and saw your store.
Your Quichan series had 217 pieces presold,
and sent out 100 pieces.
Do these fabrics worth it?
It's better than nothing.
Doesn't Wenda have some problems right now?
Wenda was exposed for having cancerous substance in their fabric.
I want to keep myself away from this scandal.
Didn't you want something like this happen to Wenda?
That should've not been said.
We are all in the fashion industry in this city.
So you are here today
to talk to me about how to save Wenda
in order to save the fashion industry in Linhai.
I want to.
But I can't.
Wenda used cancerous substances in their fabric,
which is the fact that they cannot deny.
So you are saying Wenda is not in that much trouble?
Yeah, because Wenda used cotton and linen, which shrink easily.
But they didn't shrink them beforehand and just went into production.
And the media caused the misunderstanding for people.
It was actually an accident.
Was it?
All the accidents were not accidents.
All the accidents in the world all happened because of conflict of interests.
You are saying that someone is trying to hurt Wenda.
That's business.
Business is like a battlefield.
Business is more brutal than the battlefield.
At least, you would know what your enemies look like on the battlefield.
In business, you wouldn't even know how you died.
The report was pretty clear.
The shrinkage of Wenda's fabric is under the standard.
With the internet media's influences,
Wenda's name is now connected with cancerous substances.
How does the media
get the timing this perfect?
By the way,
you are the master of internet media.
What do you think about it?
You made it sounds like I am the one behind all these.
You made it sounds like you have things to hide.
No way.
I also said that Si Meiqi is a major business in Linhai.
Once Wenda's reputation is ruined, Si Meiqi will be affected, too.
If you don't believe it, you can go see the comment sections.
Our of a thousand of negative comments for Wenda, there are 10 something negative comments for Si Meiqi.
So I am here to pick your brian,
and see how can we help Wenda.
If you can't even save Wenda, how could I do it?
What do you mean?
The word "cancerous" is extremely explosive.
Especial when it comes of children's clothing.
It shouldn't be like this. How come there isn't a peep?
Yeah, they weren't lying to us, were they?
Here they come!
Start filming.
Hello.
How is it, reporter?
I didn't lie to you, did I?
This will be a big news.
Thanks.
I will send you the location of the deal.
And it will be your time to shine.
Here's the show.
If you are the owner of Wenda,
how would you deal with
the situation?
First, it would never happen to my company.
Second, if I use materials like linen and cotton which shrink easily,
I would pre-shrink them.
Third, situations like this happened,
it tells me that the company don't have many professionals, and the management is bad.
Boss Chen, we said what we had to say and you asked what you had to know.
I really need to go.
Grace!
You are not that busy!
I am still a major client of yours.
You can't talk about advertising with me?
Why would a big boss of a big company like you
discuss advertising with a paper media?
I know, you are not here for the ads.
Tell me what you want.
What's going on?
Li Zhicheng, what are you doing here?
It's great that you know me.
I represent the CEO of Wenda, Li Zhongming,
command the trucks to go back to the factory!
Zhicheng, you are misunderstanding this.
This is the decision we made in the meeting.
Nonsense! Monkey!
Zhicheng!
Film it, quick!
Follow my bike and go back to the factory.
Did you guys want the scoop?
Follow my car.
(Bross Ning, your lead was inaccurate. Wenda's trucks are going back to the factory...)
Time is money these days.
Don't you need to talk to you men when you get back?
It's not good to be a step behind all the time.
This is getting interesting.
Where is he going?
How would I know? I am not inside the brian of Wenda's boss.
You are not behind this drama?
The last show was directed by boss Ning!
I thought you were behind this one.
So this time Li Zhichen is behind all this.
That's awesome.
Let's be simple. It is what it is.
What are you going to do about it?
Burn them all.
I am not going to have the fabric that has these kind of stupid issues
with my company logos on it.
I would never let this batch of clothing go on the market.
I rather burn them than store them in the factory and rot away.
I, Li Zhicheng, the son of Wenda's CEO, Li Zhongming,
have something to say to everyone.
A couple of days ago, there was a quality report in front of everyone.
In my opinion, it was a good thing.
Consumers in China are the ones we take care of.
In this quality report,
it says that Wenda's children's clothes have quality issues.
But it's not about cancerous substance,
it was about the shrinkage.
Wenda's fabric is definitely not cancerous.
But
this report definitely has Wenda in it.
Brother Mochen, look.
My father used to tell me that the competition on quality
is the competition of zero flaws.
-The material is safe... -This guy...
-Isn't he cute? -Wenda is in lots of trouble right now,
but Wenda will not give up the competition on quality.
Therefore, I was authorized by my father, Li Zhongming,
to burn these problematic children's clothes.
All of them.
You and the new owner of Wenda are pretty in sync.
There are some people in Wenda
who said that even though the shrinkage of this batch of clothes is not up to the standard,
it can still be worn.
We can sell them to small wholesalers for cheap,
which can ease the urgency of bankruptcy.
Yes, Wenda does need money.
But if we have this batch of children's clothes go into the market,
it means that Wenda will produce more problematic clothes next time.
Wenda was founded 26 years ago,
we have been believing that products that are not up to standards are waste.
We believed it in the past, and we still believe it now and will do in the future.
Forever.
Such a great show!
Grace, I have to go.
Don't go. You've been here for a while.
Let's talk about it after watching it.
Life is nothing but a show and he was such a great actor.
He was definitely not acting.
Look, they are burning clothes.
That's all real money.
So you are on Wenda's side?
I stand by justice.
Burning them created waste and polution.
If this batch of clothes only has shrinkage problems and it doesn't harmless to people
I wouldn't do that.
I will donate them to charity.
In this world,
there are many kids
who have never worn new clothes before.
-You are right. Well said. -You are right.
This guy is so hot.
Ok, let talk serious.
Are you going or are you staying?
I'm going. You guys talk. I'm going.
Uncle Xue.
Zhicheng, I've been waiting for you for a long time!
Welcome home!
I was been stupid.
How could I make decisions like that?
We almost made a huge mistake.
The children's clothes have been dealt with,
but Wenda is facing lots of loss.
Someone needs to be responsible for this.
