Ten Years Late
Episode 25
Pick it up!
No, I won't.
What did you say? Pick it up!
I won’t.
Say it again?
Let me.
Alex.
Alright. Alex.
Don’t cry.
A poor little guy.
Boys can’t shed tears, right?
Wipe the tears.
Daddy, are you leaving?
I need to handle the things in the company.
I have to go back.
Tomorrow, I’ll play with you.
Alright?
No.
Be good.
Accompany him a while longer.
If it is not important,
you can go back tomorrow.
Dad.
I want to go to the Bund.
Mom said it’s beautiful.
Go with us. It’s not far.
Alright?
Do you want to go to the Bund?
Alright.
Don’t cry.
Smile.
Yuan Lai.
What's up?
The rain is heavy
and you don’t have an umbrella.
Why don’t you find any place to hide?
You may get a cold.
Go. Get on the car.
Hey. Yuan Lai.
Wipe.
No matter what happens
and how troublesome it is,
your health is the most important.
Everything is in vain
if you lose your health.
Rest assured.
For the Green Way Project,
I have some friends to help.
And we will get news in some days.
Thank you, Mr. Ji.
Is it because of Jin Ran?
No.
Yuan Lai.
You should
give up the things
which are worthless for your efforts.
Alright.
I will drive you home.
Take a bath
and have some sleep.
OK.
Alright.
Let’s go.
Mr. Wen.
I have good news to you.
Let’s talk when we meet.
Why didn’t you reply my message?
I’m tired. I want to sleep.
You still love me,
right?
During my absence in Shanghai,
you’ve sent me so many messages,
and called me many times.
You must have something to tell me.
Mr. Jin. You think too much.
I contacted you
purely for the work.
Because many papers needed to be signed by you.
And the Program Green Path and Peixin Island Project
cannot be normally carried out.
That's it.
I don't believe you contacted me
just for company businesses.
Whatever.
Yuan Lai.
I heard
what you said.
You care about me.
You miss me.
And you love me.
Could we be reconciled?
I don’t want to talk about this.
You'd better go home.
Lock the door for me.
Manager Yuan.
Please sign theses receipts.
Please check it.
Mr. Jin.
He... He is back?
Right.
Yes. Sign here.
Here is the pen.
OK.
Morning. Jess.
Mr. Jin.
You’re back.
Give Mr. Wen’s documents to me.
OK.
Thank you.
Mr. Jin.
Morning. Mr. Jin.
Didn’t you say Mr. Jin abscond?
You wanna die? Don't talk nonsense.
Don’t talk nonsense.
Mr. Jin isn’t that kind of person.
Do you agree, Yuan Lai?
Send me the comparison report of Bali routes
before noon.
Before noon?
Yes.
I don’t have much time.
Then stop talking
and write it now!
I know.
But Mr. Jin isn’t here now.
You can tell me if any matter.
I’m his assistant Wen Ya.
Wen Ya.
Give me a cup of coffee.
And cancel all my morning meetings.
I will meet Mr. Wen
ten minutes later.
Adam, the Sales Director,
came here several times this morning.
He said some important clients of Feitu
would cancel the agreements unilaterally.
Cancel the agreements?
Yes.
What’s wrong?
Is there any misunderstanding in the communication?
Client Manager have asked all of them.
But they didn't answer anything.
They just said they had other options
and wouldn’t cooperate with us temporarily.
Adam sent someone to ask our competitors
They said these clients
had never requested quotation
from them,
not to mention the cooperation.
Did you ask
if a new competitor enters
in the market?
New competitor?
OK. I get it.
I’ll send Adam to investigate.
Go ahead.
Wait.
And,
make an appointment with our regular clients
whose contract will be due soon,
and talk with them.
If they intend to cancel the agreements unilaterally,
report me.
OK. Mr. Jin.
Go ahead.
Hello. It’s me.
I want to know if there are
new business opportunities in the market lately.
Yes. Yes.
There is a newly established travel agency, named Taihe,
which is really good.
Taihe?
You know.
My annual income is not affordable
by these inferior companies.
You don’t need to worry about this.
Behind Taihe,
there is a large fund company as its backup.
And one of the partners
worked for a top tourism company
in the industry before,
who is very experienced.
So their team is very professional.
The enterprises which chooses 51job.com
as a headhunting company
are all reliable.
Really?
A top tourism company?
OK.
Send all their information
and their profession introduction to me.
I’ll reply you after reading.
OK. I’ll send you right now.
I know.
I have something to deal with.
Talk about it later.
Bye.
Mr. Ji.
I’m sorry
to take the liberty to greet you.
Did I disturb you
with your calls?
No, of course not.
What’s the matter, Mr. Jin?
I think you may know the matter.
Three regular clients of Feitu
unilaterally refused to
renew the agreements at the same time.
Now the Sales Department has been busy
to deal with it.
What?
How could it happen?
I’m confused too.
Rationally, these are all regular clients.
They shouldn’t refuse to renew the agreements suddenly.
Do you know
who will be their cooperation partner next?
I don’t know.
Confusingly, these three companies refused
the renewal nearly at the same time.
I wonder
if they find the same project?
It’s weird.
Feitu is the leading enterprise in tourism.
There shouldn’t be any other competitive opponent.
Who is so capable
to take all these companies away simultaneously?
Right.
I am confused too.
Such cases are rare
in the tourism community.
Though we don’t know who the opponent is,
I think,
there will be
some information leaked out.
Finally, you are back.
I left in a hurry
and didn’t tell you.
Actually, there is another matter.
We have found a new partner.
Mr. Jiang.
Anything else to do
for this booth?
The facial recognition function
at AI booth is good.
Write down their contact information.
OK.
Let the IT Department
contact them later.
See you around.
Professor Zhao.
You are?
Ding Ang.
Ding Ang’s mother.
I recall it.
We met at the graduation ceremony.
Right.
You go first.
Carry out it as what I said.
OK.
Are you also interested in this exhibition?
I want to learn more about new technologies
and learn if there is
new business opportunity in the market.
Professor Zhao. Are you interested
in this kind of exhibition?
I work in a technology company as the legal consultant.
They said here is a technology
similar to my company’s.
So, I came here for a look.
I see.
How is Chengzhi?
I heard from Ding Ang
that he has become
the partner of the law firm.
He is busy indeed.
Two years ago,
he handled some insignificant cases.
This year, he starts to deal with
some international companies.
That's awesome.
So great.
Ding Ang is not like him.
He plays game all day long
and doesn’t do anything else.
When you criticize him,
he gets unhappy.
How come his rebellious youth period
is so long?
He is much inferior to Chengzhi.
You don’t know it.
Children have their own personalities.
We should respect them
and can’t force them.
The more you force them, the more counterproductive it will be.
I never involve in Chengzhi’s business.
He is free
to do everything he wants
and I seldom interfere with him.
I was forced by my father.
Otherwise,
I couldn’t have recited so many legal provisions.
When other kids recited poems,
I recited criminal laws and basic laws.
When other kids learned IMO and played chess,
I learned labor laws and marriage laws every day.
If I lost my temper,
I would be beaten by my father.
Blow once and offer three blows free.
He didn’t show any mercy at all.
Really?
Your father is a university professor, isn’t he?
I thought professors
are all elegant,
modest and polite.
Don’t be fooled by their disguise.
Teachers are good at beating with ruler.
Pia! Pia! Pia!
The ruler is good to use.
Look.
Look at the scar.
Your father beat you so fiercely!
I tumbled.
But he was still the cause of my injury.
If he hadn’t chased me,
I couldn’t have tumbled.
Right?
When I was in college,
my father forbade me to date.
He urged me to study hard,
to make contribution to the Four Modernizations.
These two doesn’t conflict.
When he was in college,
I encouraged him to date.
But he didn’t understand.
Now, he still doesn’t have a girlfriend.
Professor Zhao.
Marriage can’t be rushed.
It depends on affections.
It’s rational.
But I am still worried.
You know.
Chengzhi is so busy.
He needs to visit clients,
handle the cases and so on.
He doesn’t have private time at all.
Ding Ang is much better than him.
I heard that
his girlfriend is pregnant, right?
Right.
On the one-month old birthday
of the baby next year,
I will invite you to come.
He is so good.
Chengzhi needs to work hard
to find a girlfriend.
But he is
too serious.
You know, girls don’t like
serious boys.
Mr. Zhao.
This cake is newly released by the restaurant,
Hokkaido chocolate lava cake.
It’s free for you...
for you two to taste.
Thank you.
Good job, Lawyer Zhao.
Be honest.
When did you hook up with her?
We just chatted last time
when I ordered food for the company.
Though she was obsessed by me,
I was unyielding.
And I even didn’t give her my number.
Shuangshuang.
I can see words on my face:
it’s private,
Shuangshuang only.
You should fully trust me.
I mean it.
Where are the words?
I can’t see them.
I hope Ding Ang can persuade Chengzhi.
Though his work is heavy,
he needs to relax.
Right?
I think that,
if Ding Ang can
learn the matureness from Chengzhi,
I would be so happy.
There is noting
to be proud for Chengzhi.
But his matureness you said
takes after me.
The heart
shows my endless love
to you.
Do you like it?
Come here.
Come?
Can I take it now?
Take it.
I just want to look at you.
Professor Zhao.
You know? I envy you very much,
for your son can inherit your business.
So great.
At that time, Ding Ang
didn’t accept my advice.
He thought I intended to control him.
He didn’t know
I just wanted to help him with his career.
Right.
Children
have their own choices.
Chengzhi is so mature.
He was willing to take my advice.
I feel very gratified.
But in fact,
lawyers are not a good profession either.
Some clients are very tough.
Sometimes, you have to response them at any time.
Shuangshuang.
This
chocolate, can I...
This is your endless love for me.
You can’t wipe it.
But you know the weather is cold.
The chocolate may be frozen
and unable to remove.
OK. OK.
I won’t wipe.
I will keep it.
You can wipe it off,
but you must carry me back.
Of course.
Sure.
Come.
- One. Two. - Come. Let's go.
Three.
- You wipe it for me. - I have a tissue.
Wait a second.
Wait a second. Wait.
Let’s go.
You are so heavy today.
Chengzhi.
I want to hold you and
your back like this always.
Why?
Because I want to be your strongest backup.
Alright.
My strong backup, can you come down now?
Can you come down now?
I’m exhausted.
No.
I’m really exhausted.
Did you say I’m heavy?
No. No.
Say it again?
Say it again? Am I heavy?
Professor Zhao.
Is that your mature and serious son?
Seemingly, he didn’t tell you the truth.
Thank you, my highness.
Alright. You performed well.
I can’t see.
I will spare you this time.
Is she his client?
The direction is wrong.
If his clients are all tough like this,
you son must
lead a hard life.
Is it OK?
Turn right.
Sir. Excuse me.
Can you make way for me?
Sir. Make way for me!
Dad.
Dad?
Dad!
Do your best on Aimei Project.
Hello, Deputy Director!
Alright. Sit down!
Don’t call me the deputy director.
It sounds weird.
Man. Hand out to everyone.
Attention, please.
Our team
will take over the Aimei Project.
They will release a smart phone
tailored for the youth market,
Kacal.
What we need to do
is to rapidly open up the brand market for them.
Shall we perform the ground promotion
according to the convention?
The ground promotion requires much time and many efforts,
and it’s hard to promote the brand popularity rapidly.
How about finding a start as the spokesperson
to make the TV advertising?
The budget could be a problem.
It needs tens of millions of yuan.
How about to find a TV series to implant an ad?
TV series is a bit risky.
We don't know if it can be aired,
and don’t know the effect of airing.
It is not efficient.
OK.
Try to think about a better solution.
Alright?
Man, note them down.
- I’m leaving. - OK.
Thank you.
Madam, please.
Sorry. Sorry.
Let me check the time.
You are thirty-seven minutes late.
You pay the bill this time.
OK, I will! I will pay it!
You know me well.
I am a workaholic.
But, to meet you,
I spent a lot of time dressing myself.
So, I should thank you.
I heard Jin Ran had been back.
Did you reconcile with him?
Yesterday,
Alex accidentally made a video call
with me through Jin's phone.
And then
I saw Jin Ran was at Gu Sa’s home.
Really?
Do you mean
Jin Ran stayed with Gu Sa these two days?
I don’t know.
But I really
saw he staying with Gu Sa yesterday.
Really?
Gu Sa is meaner
than I thought.
No. Well.
Did you ask Jin Ran about it?
What did he say?
If he said he loves you.
how could he stay with other women?
In fact,
Gu Sa and Jin Ran know
their own relationship the best.
Maybe,
I am not as important as his job.
I don't know.
I don't want to think about it.
Let’s eat.
It’s enough!
You don’t know it. And he doesn’t say it.
I can’t stand your messy relationship.
Xinyi.
I have something to ask you.
You’ve disappeared for so many days.
Did you stay with Gu Sa?
What are you talking about?
Don’t pretend it in front of me.
We have seen it.
Your son Alex made the video call
to Yuan Lai with your phone.
What do you mean?
Does Yuan Lai know it?
If she knew it,
why didn’t she tell me?
Does she still think
I keep a relationship with Gu Sa?
The matter has pasted for a long time.
Alright.
I give you the chance to explain.
Say it.
Explain what?
Alex came back on his own.
So I came to see him.
I tell you.
It has nothing to do with Gu Sa.
I know it.
She behaved so cold yesterday.
What?
Jealous?
What are you laughing at?
I tell you. Jin Ran.
If you dare to hurt Yuan Lai,
I won’t spare you.
Rest assured. My lady.
I dare not to do
anything hurtful to Yuan Lai.
I won’t hurt her.
Alright.
Rest assured.
If I dare to do...
or even have the thought
to hurt Yuan Lai,
I won’t forgive myself.
And you,
you are pregnant.
Don’t always get angry.
I am always bad-tempered.
You know it well.
I hold the meeting all day along.
It’s tiring.
And I have to solve your problems.
It’s so hard to me.
You are busy.
It’s really hard to you.
But you don’t seem good.
Anything wrong?
Tell me.
I can help to analyze it.
This.
Recently,
I have accepted a case from Aimei,
to promote a new smart phone,
Kacal, for them.
The budget is low
while their expectation is so high.
And you know,
the phone market competition is fierce.
If I don’t start it well,
then it will be doomed.
From the style
and the pricing,
it is aimed at young consumers, right?
It is simple.
Find out the point the youth have in common.
For these consumers,
you just need to figure out the places
where they usually go,
and find someone to advertise on the scene,
it will be efficient for promotion.
Make the advertising at the place
where they gather?
If this plan is adopted,
the budget will be too high.
Find another one.
OK. I’ll think about it.
Please look over his plan.
Man.
I remember
Deng Wei’s new song conference
will be held these days, right?
Right.
Do you want to invite him
to be the spokesperson for the phone?
But our budget...
I got it.
Put the advertisement on the building
where Deng Wei holds his conference.
How about it?
Right!
The major consumers of Kacal phones
and Deng Wei’s fans
are well fitted beyond eighty percent.
Right.
Let him to solicit potential customers for us
and we can advertise specifically.
If so,
all the entertainment news
will advertise for us freely.
We can take advantage of it!
Right. Xinyi.
You are awesome.
It’s a great idea!
OK. Listen.
Let’s carry out
according to this plan.
Firstly, determine the light box image.
I will contact the manager
of Hengda Property
and fix the slot of schedule as soon as possible.
OK.
Hello. I have an appointment with a gentleman.
Thank you.
Hello.
Gao Zifu?!
Xinyi.
Long time no see.
What brings you here?
I made an appointment with...
It’s a long story.
Take a seat.
Thank you.
So,
You work in Hengda Property now.
I’ll talk to you about it later.
OK.
Mr. Gao.
I am here to talk with you
about the advertisement business
of Hengda Property.
Mr. Gao?
You are so polite.
You can call me Zifu as before.
It’s inappropriate.
After all, we are talking about business.
The schedule of this billboard is full this year.
You can’t order it.
But I have confirmed it
with the managers of your company this morning.
They said the slot of schedule I wanted is available.
So, I have brought the contracts with me.
Really?
Oh, I see.
The manager you contacted
should be the new intern in the company.
Maybe he muddled the billboard at the front
and the billboard at the back.
So,
you may order the billboard at the back.
But we really need
the front billboard.
Is it possible
to coordinate with other determined brand parties?
I’m afraid I can’t do that.
The determined brand parties
are impossible to change the schedule.
If so,
I won’t force you to do it.
I am busy.
See you next time.
Xinyi.
Since you left me,
I have missed you very much.
I made the mistake before.
You were a good girl.
and I shouldn’t womanize.
No need to mention the past.
I have married.
I hope
you can also start it over.
Alright.
If any good news about the billboard,
I will inform you instantly.
Mr. Ji.
Do you know
why Mr. Wen convene the meeting now?
Anything happened to the company?
Mr. Jin disappeared days ago.
He comes back now.
Maybe it is concerned with that.
Sit. Sit.
Two matters.
The first,
Jin Ran found a new partner for the company.
Zhang's Property will replace Guoben
to participate in our public welfare projects.
Zhang's Property?
Thank you. Thank you for trusting me and trusting my company.
But I’m sorry.
Because
I have cooperated with others
in a similar project.
Finally, the Green Path Program is going to resume.
Good news!
Congratulations!
The second,
our company intends to participate in the tender of Lan Town project.
Jin Ran and Yuan Lai will take charge of it.
Mr. Wen.
I’m glad to participate
in Lan Town’s project.
But in view of my experience,
I don’t think I am qualified
to take charge of
this significant project.
Don’t worry about that.
You are trained by Aoting.
You are all my right-hand men.
I believe you can make it.
I hope you and Jin Ran can cooperate with each other well
and try to win the tender.
Jin Ran.
I count on you.
I have cooperated with Yuan Lai many times.
I think we have the tacit understanding.
Everyone does a good job these days.
Thank you on behalf of the leadership of the group.
That’s it. Dismiss.
Are you still angry?
Mr. Jin. You are oversensitive.
It’s my responsibility to finish
the tasks assigned by the boss.
I am not angry.
It’s not what I mean.
Xinyi met me yesterday.
She told me
about Alex’s video call.
I’m sorry.
If I offended you,
I apologize.
Of course not.
I need to thank her.
If she didn’t tell me,
I couldn’t know you have misunderstood
the relationship between Gu Sa and me.
I don’t care about your relationship with Gu Sa.
I have no interest in it.
Yuan Lai.
Are you jealous?
You thought too much.
Gu Sa and I are friends.
I went to see Alex that day.
It has nothing to do with her.
Mr. Jin.
You don't need to explain.
And I don’t need your explanation.
That's it.
Mr. Jin. Are you available?
I have a question to ask you.
Mr. Ji. You are welcome.
Tell me.
Lan Town
is located near the Peixin Island.
Because it’s a small town,
many tourism companies overlooked it.
I know the Lan Town Tourism Bureau
spent little money for the investment.
The fund
is not much this time.
I don't think it’s profitable.
I don’t agree with you.
For the business we do,
we need to consider
both the profit and the future development of the company.
Mr. Ji. In my opinion,
the profit for Lan Town’s project
is not the priory.
We must win the tender
of this project.
If we can make it an instant hit,
Feitu will be the unparalleled
leading enterprise in the industry.
Yes. I agree.
But you know,
the popularity
of tourist attractions
needs tons of money to build up.
If the fund is insufficient,
I don’t think
we can make the project a success.
I understand.
However,
we can invest it by ourselves
if the Tourism Bureau doesn’t allocate money.
We can even cooperate with related enterprises
in business projects.
As long as we make the first step,
any company who wants to
invest in Lan Town
must grant Feitu’s permission first.
Excuse me. Mr. Ji.
I’m leaving. See you around.
OK.
I’m sorry.
I dare not to contact you these days.
I intended to solve the problem first
and then apologize to you.
Alright. It doesn’t matter now.
We have a good relationship.
Just tell me.
What happened?
One of my reporters did it.
He sent the news on the Internet
before verifying it, without my permission.
I was on the plane to America at that time.
And I knew the news when I landed.
I’m sorry.
I believe
it has nothing to do with you.
But someone must
have taken advantage of your reporter
to spread rumors and frame Feitu.
Rest assured.
I am duty-bound in this matter.
That reporter has been fired by me.
I will personally clarify the truth through my studio.
I don’t hope it has bad influence on you.
It doesn't matter.
You know my public relations capability.
There is a new progress
in Feitu public welfare scandal
which provoked much discussion before.
The reason why Guoben Fund quitted the Program Green Path
is a misunderstanding of communication inside Feitu.
The manager of Program Green Path
also released the signature page
of the relevant budget of the company yesterday.
It is proved that no one has embezzled.
Meanwhile, Feitu announced
to cooperate Zhang’s Property,
which is the first real estate developer in Hong Kong,
to advance the Program Green Path
after Guoben Fund quitted.
The manager of Program Green Path said
this public welfare program will benefit the environment.
Feitu will make full efforts to promote it
and strive for achievements.
Meanwhile, Feitu announced
to participate the tender of Lan Town Tourism Project.
OK. OK.
I will hand it over to Dong.
OK. I know.
I have to go.
I’ll hang up.
Hey. What’s the matter?
Have you received the news?
Jin Ran will cooperate with Zhang's Property.
I watched the news in the morning. I know it.
Did you approve it?
I have no reason to reject it.
This project was developed by me for Feitu.
Now the project is well developed,
but he puts me aside.
Why did he do it?
You quarreled with them and
said to terminate the cooperation that day, right?
I was angry at that time!
If you were
played around by others,
how would you feel?
I find that,
I have known Jin Ran for so many years,
but I still don’t know him well.
You know. He left arbitrarily
and went to a tourism company,
giving up his career abroad.
Now he is courting
a product manager in the company.
Today, he decided to tender
the Lan Town project.
Lan Town project is so bad.
Is he out of his mind?
Since Jin Ran is interested in it,
I will give my full support.
You know it.
I will definitely support him.
When he gets tired
and bored,
he will give up.
It will be counterproductive
if I refuse him now.
Oh, my gosh.
Your help to him is in vain.
You run when you are angry.
It has never changed.
Do you mind if I join you?
If you can keep up with me.
It’s hard
to run with you
with the suit.
Say it.
You must get troubles
on the planning.
Don't stare at me like that.
I know you were reluctant
to join our planning team.
Say it.
What troubles you got?
Tell me frankly.
Do you have
any other intention on the project?
What intention can I have?
You know better than me.
In fact, Lan Town project
is not good to be invested.
Lan Town neither has rich historical culture,
nor does it have
unique natural resources.
To develop the tourism,
tons of funds and resources need to be invested.
Why do we intend to
tender this project?
Maybe we would lose everything
and also delay other projects.
Unless...
Unless what?
Unless it is your original intention.
Do you doubt my loyalty to Feitu
and my loyalty to you?
If I want to be against Feitu,
I have no need to
work so hard on it.
Furthermore,
you can see the disadvantage in the project.
Don’t you think Mr. Wen can see it too?
I am an idiot in your mind, right?
No.
But
I really don’t know
how to get a win-win solution
for the contracted parties.
Lan Town Tourism Bureau is reluctant
to invest more in it.
So, it’s hard for us to advertise.
Do you know it?
The chance to win is little,
but it exists.
Right?
Well.
Do you have a better idea?
Why do you like running?
Because I can concentrate
on thinking when I am running.
What?
The reason is that when you run,
you always lock up your heart.
If you are willing to open it,
the scenery you see
will not only be the road under your feet,
but also the person beside you.
The one that grows up with you,
shares the experiences with you,
and holds the hands
with you all the time.
