EP1
It has been 17 hours since last night, and I don't seen any progress.
For the merger negotiation of Quick, Qin
You, the Chinese legal representative of Yep
You need to come up with the solution.
I never expected Quick's boss
to suddenly change and refuse to negotiate.
Please, give me some time.
No one can ensure. Listen,
I give you one more hour
If you don't have any progress in one hour,
I will fire you and your firm.
What was Mr. Chen thinking?
He took such a long flight to their headquarters
starts talking about merging with Yep
and then suddenly stop the negotiation all together.
I really have no idea what he is doing. I'd really starting to think he's losing it.
its...
What's going on here?
Still haven't seen him
geez
Mr. Qin
It's been half an hour
How's Tian Yu doing?
Not good
The boss of Quick
negotiated for half it then suddenly stopped. Not saying a word.
This guy, Chen Mo
Established his first literary website in 1999
And got his first bucket of gold of his life
In 2010, his social networking platform
was priced on the New York Stock Exchange
Two years later
He helped another website
To enter the Hong Kong stock market
He's not short of money.
Then why did he accept the cooperation with Yep
It's easy, after the fierce competition
Kuaishan and Yep have become the only car-hailing apps in China
In order to gain market
They invested huge amounts of money
It's harmful to both of them to continue like this.
But Chen Mo went back on his words
Breaking a promise is not suitable
Hello
Tracy
Is Tongwei there? Let her answer the phone please
Tell her to find a solution
I have only half an hour
If Chen Mo doesn't get back to the negotiating table,
I'll lose my job
I got it
I'm Xie Xiaofei
This is me at the beginning of the story
Arrogant, overbearing, and saw everyone as beneath me
If I hadn't met her that day
Maybe I would have remained the same
We're running out of time
She will come
She will definitely come
Counselor Qin
I know Miss Tong is a excellent negotiator
and she's also your good friend
but you can't rely solely on her
If negotiations fail
How will you explain yourself to Mr. Sun?
We can't wait anymore
We have to do something
You finally came
Where is Chen Mo?
The opposite corridor
Let's go
I'm a user of Kuaishan and I have a complaint
Where is your boss?
Who has a complaint?
Nice to meet you Chen. May I have a moment with you?
Let me ask...
Are you some princess of an Emirate?
That you'd fly to the US to complain to me
Who are you?
Let me introduce myself
I'm CAEA's negotiator at Shanghai. My name is Tong Wei
A negotiator?
How scary
Let me also tell you a little bit about myself
If you intend to use beauty tactics I can take you on, but
If you want to negotiate then sorry
Please head home
It's OK that you ignore my negotiation, but can you at least listen to my complaint?
What's your complaint?
May I take a seat?
The truth of the matter is...
A few days ago, I went to go to the USA headquater
to attend a 10 day training program
I went to the Pudong airport
by calling a taxi using your app
Afterwards, something happened
I have the recording
Is something wrong?
Miss, do you have Yepu on your cell phone?
Yes. What's the matter?
Can you help me take an order on Yepu?
I'll give you a discount on the fare
I don't understand what you mean.
If you have the Kuaishan app open, and you place an order on Yepu at the same time
I'll get the subsidies of both companies
I can earn more, and you don't lose out on anything
It's an ideal situation
You are so clever
Like you said, I'm only making the best of the situation I hope these two companies continue to compete
The more they fight, the more money I make
What do you call that these days?
Network thinking, right?
That's the end
"Network Thinking"
Hearing a basic level driver say this...
Will you continue to compete with Yepu?
Are you saying...
Yepu sent you here to try to convince me?
I'm not here to convince you
I'm helping you
and helping myself also
How so?
You see,
after Yepu's entry into the Chinese market in order to gain the market as soon as possible
it puts forward subsidy policies one by one
A kind of so called Order Brusher's Groups emerged.
You and your competitor spend a large sum of money on subsidy
But your money is misused by drivers
It's a regulation loophole
That's why, if both sides continue to compete for a long time
There will only be losses
If the car-hailing market disappeared,
What will happen to the people who need to call cars?
I believe this kind of result is not what you want to see
To be honest
I know your history of entrepreneurship
I know you don't lack money
But at the beginning of your business You and your team
did promotional activities in over 30 cities
for more than a year
growing little by little
I think you worked so hard...
because money wasn't your only goal right?
Little girl
You know too much
It's dangerous
Yes, I don't lack money
My task now is how to spend my money
to bring a better life for people
Do you think I'm great? I think so.
That's why, I regret this merger
If Yepu combined with us, then Yepu would have a monopoly of the entire market
There will be no competition anymore
In any industry, if there is no competition
It will be disadvantageous to the industry
What do you think？
I understand your point
One company creating a monopoly is definitely bad
but both sides suffering losses is also what you don't want to see, right?
That's why I wanted to say
After the merger
you will still have a lot to do
I hope that you can give yourself and all the users
an opportunity
What do you think?
Good co-operation
CAEA negotiator, Tong Wei
I remember you now
I hope you won't hate me in a few months
Why?
There's always people with good intentions ruining things
But don't let that stop you from being a good person, right?
All right, hope to see you again.
Come
Thank you for your help today
You really solved a big problem
Cheers
Just to make one thing clear
I didn't come here only for you
I have a training program at the headquater in America
Anyway, I'm not doing this for nothing. You're firm would be good to me
Right？
You're right
It's hard to get a negotiator from CAEA
In order to appreciate you
Since you're not lacking money
So...
How about I use my body as payment
That's quite enough from you
I've booked a room nearby for us tonight.
How about...
Tianyu!
I've told you many times. We're only ---
Friends
OK, fine
It's good that you know
Just a joke. Don't be so serious.
Anyhow
to congratulate our success today. Cheers!
Cheers!
When's your flight tomorrow?
At 10
That's really early
Then today you should rest early
Let me send you back after dinner
No need. I can go back by myself
We're only friends
friend, this is New York. It's dangerous at night
See you in China
I like boxing
Because I like the realness of the sport
But I seldom got support from people around me
including my family
What's the situation inside?
Your brother is here at tonight's boxing match
fighting with a boxer named "Bulldozer"
He has no care for his life
Brother!
Be careful!
Don't look down on us Chinese people
Brother
Why you are here again?
It's too dangerous
Come back home with me
Dangerous?
It's so exciting here!
For people like you
This place is dangerous
For me, It's just a place for fun
You are even more cowardly than Aili
Have you forgotten what tomorrow is?
How could I forget
Monthly family get-together It bores me to death
Are you leaving?
I won't allow you to go
Let me get changed
Wait for me in the car
What's wrong?
Don't you believe me?
I just hope that
tomorrow's family get-together will go smoothly
Xiaotian
You're still so young
Why tire yourself out over useless company issues?
Bro, you and I are not alike
How are we not alike?
I'm your elder brother
You're my younger brother
What are our differences?
Don't always keep a poker face.
Your face is gonna be stiff.
Have a try
No
Listen to me. Try one
Chewing can relax your face
Let's go
Younger first
What's the matter?
I haven't drank anything
But why do I feel dizzy?
It's common to be dizzy
It'd be abnormal if you weren't dizzy
What did you give me to eat?
This is a special gum that
my friend gave me
For someone who normally doesn't touch alcohol
It'll only take minutes to get them drunk
But don't worry. You'll recover after a little sleep
Brother...
I have something else to do
You go back home and sleep first
I promise I won't be late tomorrow
Don't worry
I also won't let you be yelled at
Get in the car, get in the car
Take him home safely
Yes, Sir
Dear, you are so smart
Being followed by people every day
It's like being in a prison
hearing the word "family" makes me wanna puke
You little brother only cares for you
You're the only successor of your family's business If anything happened to you,
Family Xie's business will be in danger.
Don't say the words "Family Xie" to me
I have no relation to them
Is it because my surname is Xie?
I'm telling you
I will never live like them
to be a money-making machine
Never
Hello, Uncle. How are you?
Weiwei
It's bad! It's bad!
Tiantian is missing!
Tiantian is missing?
What happened?
Did you call the police?
I --
Move, move
You're not explaining it well. Let's me talk.
Tong Wei, it's like this
Tiantian didn't come back home since yesterday.
I called her classmates Her classmates say
she didn't go to school today
They heard --
They heard she went abroad to some country
Tong Wei
You're competent and knowledgeable
Help us to find Tiantian
If anything happens to Tiantian
We can't live without her
Calm down
Can you go to Tiantian's bedroom
and check whether she left any information for you?
Okay. Quickly
Bring it here
Here
Tong Wei
in her room
we found a travel schedule
Schedule...
How about this
Take a photo of that schedule and send it to me
Okay. I'll do that right now.
Hello Tracy, sorry to disturb you this late at night
I can't sleep. How can I help you, boss?
Can you check the timetables of all the shows during the New York Fashion Week
Where is Xiaofei?
He--
Did he go partying yesterday night?
No. He --
Don't conceal for him.
Today, if he can't arrive on time
there will be something interesting to see
A battle between father and son
is always enjoyable.
Chairman
Your coffee
Has everyone arrived?
They've all arrived
Is Xiaofei back yet?
Not yet.
I'll go greet the guests
Madam
Here, Tian Yo
Xiaofei must have gone out partying last night
It's not that I'm forcing him, but
The family get-together on the fifth of each month
is a tradition determined by his great-grandpa
When he wants to play around, I usually accept his behavior
but he's even ignoring traditional rules
He's outrageous!
Alright, don't be angry
He'll definitely come home today
That kid
If he arrives late again, I will break his leg!
If he doesn't come back at all
then I'll just kick him out
and put an end to it all
All right, don't be mad
Drink your coffee first. I'll go greet the guests
The family get-together every month is actually
a bunch of pretentious relatives
coming to the spacious house and chatting “cheerfully and humorously”
They just come for economic interest
I hate every person and every corner of this house
It's not the life I want
Uncle Ou!
There are 10 minutes left for you to prepare
I'll be going to the hospital later
No problem. Uncle Ou
Thinking about seeing all their fake faces...
I become very frustrated
Xiao Fei
You're becoming more and more fashionable
Your hair
Is reaching the ceiling
That's right
Our eldest brother is coming
Hi, brother
Hi, Chairman Hello, brother
Xiaofei
Everyone is here
Take the seat
I came, Dad
Come
I want to wish everyone good health
Good health to you, elder brother
Although I'm young
I know
Xiaofei
The chairman asks you to go to the study
Now?
Yes
Alright. I'll go
Chairman
I told you many times
Speak Chinese at home.
What's this?
Take a look
What's that?
Last night in the Brooklyn area
A boxing competition was held
A mysterious Chinese man
won against the famous boxer “Bulldozer”
and gifted the prize money to his competitor for their family's medical expenses.
It seems like my good deed
has been found out by the media
Dad
Do you think I'm the pride of the Chinese people?
How can you laugh at this?
You are the company heir
I'm getting old
The Returning Plan of the company will need to be be completed by you
But look at what you are doing every day
You've forgotten your station
I know my station
but I don't want to turn into your puppet
because I have my own will
Xiaofei
The returning plan of our business
Is the wish of our entire family
Your father has placed high hopes on you
High hopes
Father should place your hopes on someone else
Nonsense!
The Xie family has a hundred years history in America
Returning to China and expanding the business
has been planned for a long time
Returning
Uncle
You've all been planning it for a long time
But have you ever asked for my opinion?
Am I willing to return according to your methods?
To return to the country or not?
In your eyes,
am I only a money making tool?
That's not what I mean
I'm not interested in your business.
Insolence!
Dad
Do you know why I like boxing?
You don't know right
I'll tell you.
Only when I'm in the ring
do I realize that I'm a real man
I can release all my emotions
Whether I'm hitting someone or being hit
every punch on my body makes me feel real
What about all of you?
Socialising everywhere with your fake smiles
Telling your lies Don't you feel tired?
You're all pretending and are hypocritical
I have no interest in any of your plans.
Let Xiaotian do it for you!
You --
Brother!
You bastard!
You -
What's the matter?
Did I say something wrong?
You -
Get back here!
You get back here!
Brother, come back!
Dad
I regret
I truly regret giving life to that cur
Dad, dad, dad
Chairman. Take care
Don't get mad. Don't get mad
Hello
What?
I got it. I'm coming
Why you dressed like that？
It took me a while to find you
Why are you here?
I should be asking you that question
Follow me
No.
Where are you going? Come home with me
I'm not going. It was really hard for me to come here
I'm here for the Fashion Week, for the street snap
You look like this and you still want to take a street style snap?
Listen to me and come home!
What do you know
This is high street fashion
Tong Wei
Can you please translate for me to these photographers?
It was hard for me to come here
Can you ask them to pay attention to my designs?
It was hard for you?
Do you know it's even harder for your parents?
When you disappeared, they went crazy
I don't care.
If I don't make an impact this time Then I won't go home
I want to establish in the US
Staying illegally in the US? Okay Easy for you
Let me call the police to help you
Don't try to scare me
I'm scaring you?
Look at yourself
A little girl who doesn't know any English
with no money or property in the country with no relatives here
You say you have no intentions to immigrate
Who will believe you?
So you will not help me
Not help?
This is how I'm helping you right now, do you realize that?
You have a wonderful dream, and I support that
But please work hard to realize your dreams
and then come back here properly with your achievements, alright?
Now, come back home with me
Hurry up
I've heard enough of your motivational clichés
Tiantian
Tiantian!
Why is no one here?
What is this place?
Uncle Ou
Can you let me stay with my mom for a while?
In such a fake family
the only thing that makes me hurt is my mom's suffering
She is so kind
She never hurt others
Yet she's became like this
Mom
When can you wake up?
I miss you so much
Let me go!
Let go!
Tiantian
Tong Wei
Tell them to release me
Do you know how big of a mistake you've made?
Stop trying to scare me
You are limiting my personal freedom
Are you aware?
I will hire a lawyer. I will sue you
Tiantian
Who are you?
