Standing in the Time Episode 13
How much is the bonus?
Miss, why do you think about money all day long?
This is a matter of honor.
It has nothing to do with money. Understand?
Our Editor-in-Chief hopes that Zhou Zimo
can reveal his identity as writer.
No.
I think there's something wrong with this author.
Have you been married? Have you had a child?
Remember what you said.
About some product recommendations,
most of the products
come from abroad and they are expensive.
I would like to ask whether you have tried each of them out.
Are these what you should take care of as a proofreader?
Are you doing this on purpose?
No, ma'am.
Today, I come here actually because I just want to ask
how many contents in this book are true.
Because you mentioned before that some home-made diapers
haven't been used for your child
and you haven't carried out those methods
recommended by veteran TCM doctors.
If these things are written in the book,
you are deceiving the readers.
I am not.
Are you not?
Here, you have mentioned a lot of ways
to cultivate the interest of children.
The most important point is to
make children stay away from all electronic products.
But last time I came here, Qiqi was lying on her stomach here
playing iPad.
Try to look after her alone.
If you don't give her your phone or iPad,
you can't even feed her the rice.
If you don't believe, try it.
But you couldn't have put it in the book.
You're right. I was wrong.
So what I have written in my blog is right.
You follow one principle in your blog, but another in reality.
Don't you think this is too false?
I want to ask you something.
In your real life, everything is true and nothing is false?
If your Publishing Press doesn't want to publish my book,
you can tell me directly.
Such a young girl was sent to talk with me about raising a child.
Have you ever had a child?
Can you understand when we talk?
Anyway, whether it's true or false is your business.
Now you are going to publish a book.
You can't say anything false.
I haven't seen your blog before.
If I had seen, I would have long been here and argued with you.
You are doing something deceptive.
How can you feel so at ease?
I'm now the proofreader of this book.
So I must be responsible for the authenticity of its content.
Your stories can't hold water at all as I see it.
These are not stories at all.
Do you think raising a child and bringing her up is a story?
This is all my care for the child.
If in this world everything is false,
but a mother's care for the child
is definitely true. Do you understand?
Get out!
Go out right now!
I'm back.
Why are you looking at me?
If you still want to talk about that to me, no way.
Who is going to talk to you about work?
I'm just curious.
You draw a curtain and write inside without stop all day long.
What are you writing about?
I'm not good at writing.
Let me have a look.
A Footless Insect.
You haven't changed this title yet.
You can choose to return it to me now.
No, I can't.
I want to read it.
By the way, this is
the gift the brand side gives you.
Try it.
A Footless Insect.
Morning.
Morning. Morning.
Li Xiao,
what did you do yesterday?
Did you go to the author again?
Yes.
Li Xiao, come in.
Stay calm.
He may lose temper.
What's going on?
Director, what's the matter?
You went to the author's home yesterday?
You had a quarrel?
The author requested Mr. Wu to change a proofreader.
Why?
I don't want to be her proofreader.
Director, the blogger
Became angry from embarrassment.
You hurt her, so you should apologize.
Director,
I was just performing my duty.
There are too many false contents in her book.
I can't accept that.
Besides, I don't understand why everybody thought it's useless for me
to do so.
Is it because she is a web celebrity
then we should turn a blind eye to it and connive at what she does?
First, you overstepped the boundary.
Second, what you think is wrong
is not necessarily the reason you guessed.
Why are you sure she is a shill for false advertisements?
You are childish by doing this
and it's the greatest disrespect for her.
Director.
You are staring at me.
Li Xiao, you can refuse to do the proofreading,
but you must apologize to her.
This is the truth in life.
It is unrelated to work.
I don't want to blame you.
You look after our child at home every day,
but when she got sick and had a fever, you didn't know.
You didn't know that she had pneumonia.
Are you a qualified mother?
You are even going to have your book published and keep a blog.
Do you think you are a great mother since you can write?
Do you think so? Do you think so?
Who is that?
You are... Hello.
I'm Li Xiao from the Publishing Press.
I'm sorry. Today, we...
Let her come in.
Close the door.
Ma'am, hello.
This is my husband.
He just came back home.
Hello.
Ma'am, today I'm here to apologize to you.
Wait for me for a while.
Let's talk outside.
Let Qiqi take this medicine.
In half an hour, take her temperature again.
If it is over 38 degrees centigrade, call me.
Can't you do the right thing?
When is it now?
You still need to go out?
Is something related to the child a trivial matter?
Is it?
You don't understand or you don't care?
How many days of these years
have you stayed at home looking after the child?
What qualifies you to blame me?
You are her mother and you should take the responsibility.
Then what's your responsibility?
Over these four years, have I been away from our child?
I can't have a good sleep every day.
Do you think our child has been sick only this time?
When I held her and took her to the hospital, where were you?
When I weaned her, she had a high fever and was hospitalized.
Where were you back then?
When she cried to find her daddy,
I had to comfort her for the whole day.
Do you know how I felt at the time?
You don't have to tell me that your earn money to support our family
and you do everything for us.
Let's now make a change.
Let me make money and you look after our home.
When did Qiqi begin to speak?
When did she have her first tooth?
When did she write the first character?
When did she draw her first picture?
Do you know all these?
You should think about your responsibility as a father.
Ma'am.
Ma'am, wait for me.
Ma'am. Ma'am.
Ma'am.
Wait for me. Wait for me.
Let's talk inside.
Let's go. Let's go.
Come, Qiqi.
Baby, get up to have some porridge.
Here.
You worried me.
Come.
I'm cold.
Here. OK.
I want to lean against something.
You want to lean against something? OK.
Here we go.
Here, baby.
OK.
Have the porridge.
Where is Mom?
Your mom went out for a walk.
Did you quarrel with Mom?
No.
Your mom will be back soon.
Here. Have the porridge.
Only porridge?
Baby, you are sick.
Having porridge is better for your health.
Then there should be pickles too.
Baby, I can only make porridge for you today.
OK?
Then I'll make do with it.
Good girl.
Here.
It's hot.
Baby.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry, baby.
Here.
Did you get scalded?
It's my fault.
I didn't cool it for you first.
Here.
It's dirty. I want to get changed.
It doesn't matter. I've wiped it.
Let's change the clothes after you finish the porridge.
I want get changed now.
OK. OK.
Change.
Baby, where are your pajamas?
In the closet.
How about you wear this?
I want to wear the one with bears.
With bears.
I'll find it for you.
With bears.
Baby, how about you wear this one?
It's pink.
I want to wear the one with bears.
Baby, which one do you want to wear?
What I want to wear is not here.
Dad, you don't know anything, do you?
I'm really sorry.
I let you see we couple quarrel.
I should say sorry to you.
Last time, my attitude was not good.
Recently, I'm in a bad mood.
I vented my anger on you.
In fact, you are right.
Many of the methods and products mentioned in the book
have never been tried by myself.
This book,
instead of
being about my experience as a mother,
is a kind of
self-consolation.
These years, only when I see those comments and likes on my blog,
I can feel
my own value.
Sometimes, I really feel that this is my profession.
Recently, I started to draw covers
and ignored something.
I didn't even find that
Qiqi got sick.
Ma'am, don't be too upset.
Your business suit is really nice.
I haven't worn
such nice clothes for long.
After I got pregnant, I didn't go to work anymore.
I don't seem to need such clothes.
Bears are coming.
Baby, I finally found the bears.
Where was it?
It was hanging on the balcony.
Here. Let's get it changed.
OK?
Here.
Don't catch cold.
Here. Let me cover the quilt for you.
Come. Stretch out your arms.
OK. This arm.
OK.
Good.
Slower.
Dad, I'm cold.
OK. I'll help you put it on soon.
Here.
Put your head in first.
Here. Your arms.
OK.
You should rest.
When will Mom be back?
Your mom and Li Xiao went out to talk about something.
She'll come straight back.
Look at this button.
Did you sew on it yourself?
Li Xiao helped me sew on it.
But I picked the button.
Good, baby.
You bought this doll for me.
I bought it?
Yes, I bought it.
OK.
Take a rest now.
I still want to listen to stories.
OK.
I'll tell you the stories of
the Ugly Duckling and Little Red Riding Hood.
I've listened to them several times.
Go to the living room to get one story book for me.
OK.
I'll go to the living room and get one for you.
Come. Lie down first.
Don't catch cold. Come.
Good girl.
I'll get one for you.
OK.
I can't just let a man make money alone.
I thought so at first.
But when the child's dad works outside,
and you look after her at home, isn't this what a happy life is like?
Ms. Li, you are not married, are you?
After you get married,
you'll understand when you do something not of your own free will.
Making money is not just to support the family.
It is more a sense of accomplishment.
Otherwise why do people need to be independent?
Do you mean
after we are married, we'll not be independent?
When my child coughs,
I know
the books are all right,
but I just can do as what books say.
In the middle of the night,
I hold the child and take her to the hospital alone.
That's really not easy for me.
Can't your husband go back to work in Shanghai?
On the first day when Qiqi went to kindergarten,
she let go of my hand and ran towards the children.
At the time, I thought
she must have been very lonely,
so she needed friends so much.
I cried at the time.
One reason was that
I felt that I was out of work
and Qiqi didn't need me anymore.
Another reason was that
all the other children's dads were there,
but only mine wasn't.
Thanks.
Are you hungry?
I'll make something to eat for you.
Darling,
it's really not easy to look after a child.
Proofread it fast.
By then, let's take the book to her together.
This is a sample book.
We have specifically added a girdle and wrote some slogans,
which will help increase sales.
Take a look.
If there is no problem, we'll have it printed.
There is no problem.
Thank you very much.
You made me change a lot.
Great.
Mom, come and look.
Coming.
It's so big.
What is this you built?
A car parking lot.
What are the two above?
This is the printing plant?
Sorry.
We came here so late.
It doesn't matter. There's still time.
Thank you. Thank you.
It's nothing.
I'm going to work.
Thanks.
It's nothing.
It's finally over.
Yes.
Let's go.
How could this be wrong?
There was a third-time proofreading, wasn't it?
Impossible.
Is there anything wrong with printing?
How could that be possible?
It can only be the problem of the proofreader.
Morning.
What's wrong?
I have already given it to the blogger.
Read it.
"The Growth of a New Mother."
There is a mistake, Li Xiao.
5,000 copies for the first batch have already been printed
and they cannot be taken back.
The president asked the director to have a meeting.
We have never made such a big mistake.
The character is so big on the cover.
You didn't see that our president was so angry.
Our director will definitely take the blame.
Punishment and stopping the payment of salary are possible.
The new book waist is already being printed.
5,000 copies for this batch must be repackaged.
5,000 copies must be repackaged?
Within one day.
This is the only way you can use to make up for it.
Haochen,
until when shall we do this?
Don't think too much.
Just do it.
Li Xiao.
I'm telling you that Shi Lei is the most pitiable.
She went for a blind date.
Really?
Director.
Why do you come here, Director?
Can you manage to do the job if we don't come?
Come on. Let's get started.
Come. Slower.
No hurry.
Come. Give me a hand.
Liang, move the books a little bit.
OK.
Come. Mr. Niu, don't worry.
-Ms. Shi. -Ms. Shi.
Ms. Shi, how come you are here?
Didn't you go for a blind date?
I canceled it.
I heard that you are all here,
so I know there must be something serious.
Hurry.
There are so many books here.
Come on, colleagues.
Be careful.
Don't tear the girdle apart.
Be careful, OK?
If we worked carefully, we wouldn't have to be careful here.
Enough. Since we are here, there's no need to say that.
Let's get to work.
Now. Let's get together.
Listen to me.
As for the girdles, let's pack ten and tear ten apart.
Give all the wrong girdles to Mr. Liang.
Until tomorrow morning, all the 5,000 girdles in the boxes
must be replaced.
None should be ignored.
Come on.
OK. OK.
Liu Haochen, how can you work before eating?
Hurry up.
These are all your favorites.
Everyone who sees can have a share.
Director, let's eat.
We'll have the energy to work after eating our fill.
OK. Come on. Let's eat first.
Hurry up.
Take it by yourself.
These are all your favorites.
Ms. Shi, eat.
Thank you, everyone.
But I have to go back, so I may not be able to help you.
Mr. Niu, sit.
OK. Thanks.
Eat before you work.
I'm not hungry. You guys eat first.
Here, Haochen.
Here, this is for you.
Thank you, Director.
Mr. Niu. Mr. Niu.
Here, Mr. Niu.
Meimei.
Thank you, Director.
Liang.
It's OK, Li Xiao.
Don't be upset.
Everyone may be careless.
I Never dare to look at the books I have proofread.
Right. Right.
I always feel that after books are printed,
characters are getting scary, right?
You are right.
When I look at the correct characters,
I often feel there is something wrong.
Professional oversensitivity.
If you don't believe, have a try.
Right.
When I proofread a dictionary, I made a particularly serious mistake,
and then I was criticized by the department.
That's a bad experience.
Ms. Shi, you don't have such an experience, do you?
She has.
Come on. Ms. Shi, tell them.
Can't you be broad-minded?
Don't think that you are a senior,
so you give them the feeling that you haven't made a mistake.
No. How could you say I'm narrow-minded?
Back then, when I just worked as a proofreader,
I did the third-time proofreading
for the manuscript of a very famous writer.
At the time, the editor in charge praised me,
saying that I annotated with comments very carefully.
I became highly conceited.
But in the end, a wrongly written character
of the protagonist's name, but I didn't find it.
Director, are you satisfied when I said so?
To comfort someone, just say it directly.
Don't beat the bush.
Right.
We just want to comfort someone.
Li Xiao, eat it.
Eat and then work.
Eat it.
We worked overtime overnight and replaced the wrong girdles.
Fortunately, there is no delay in publishing.
Congratulations. Your first book.
Do you still have the wrong book?
Yes.
I bring it here.
Yes.
The character is also good.
This book can be considered as
a souvenir for me in memory of these years.
Qiqi, do you like it?
I'm off.
Wu Yu!
What's the matter again?
What's wrong?
I'm sorry.
I caused so much trouble for you.
An invincible beautiful girl can admit her mistake?
You owe me another meal of roast cuttlefish.
Remember.
I'm off.
Zimo,
what are you doing here?
Li Xiao.
Punishment notice.
Due to the careless work of the Proofreading Department,
during the proofreading of the book "The Growth of a New Mother,"
a serious mistake was made,
causing unrecoverable economic and reputation loss
for the Publishing Press.
After careful consideration,
the Publishing Press decides to give the Proofreading Department the following punishments.
First,
we seriously criticize Director Lu Wenfeng
of the Proofreading Department.
Title evaluation on him at the end of this year is suspended
and postponed until the end of next year.
Second, we give a serious warning to Li Xiao,
the proofreader who made this mistake.
All her bonuses this month will be deducted.
Third, we criticize other employees of the Proofreading Department.
Half of their bonuses this month will be deducted.
We hope all the colleagues
of the Proofreading Department will live up to inheritance,
and take this as a lesson, not as a precedent.
Dongfan Press.
Is it serious?
Are you OK?
I'm fine.
Go back today.
I'll call you later.
I'm fine.
As proofreaders,
we shouldn't make mistakes.
But once we make a mistake,
any flaw is fatal.
So I hope everyone here must take this as a lesson.
Once again.
Proofreading is the last boundary line of the publishing industry.
Behind us are products.
So there's no way back for us.
Of course, we are humans.
Humans make mistakes.
Then what should we do?
Through this accident, I just saw the unity of all of us here.
We together saved this last boundary line.
Here, I want to say thank you.
Thank you.
Besides, I want to say that
we all were once young.
We all have the experience from knowing nothing to knowing something,
and from "can't do" to being skilled.
So this time we must help Li Xiao
instead of accusing her,
because this is also a kind of unity.
Because this accident may have been a big blow to Li Xiao.
She...
The meeting is over.
It's OK.
Director,
because of my mistakes, everyone is punished.
This is too unfair.
Li Xiao, I'm telling you.
This is a department's mistake, not yours alone.
It's my...
You come to me silently,
like the warmth of the sun.
Unconsciously, the feeling overflows.
This is my pink secret.
As proofreaders,
we shouldn't make mistakes.
If you make a small mistake, it'll become a big mistake.
Because you are still a rookie, Shi Lei was protecting you.
At your current level, you are not qualified for RESA upstairs
or the Proofreading Department.
You are not even qualified to enter the door of Dongfan Building.
I want to get close to you
Little by little, day by day.
Sweetness is accumulated
Little by little, day by day.
I like you surrounding me
with your two arms.
Let me melt in your breath.
Will you try the best of five games?
If you hit it,
stay.
If you doesn't, go home.
I just want a touch of beauty.
The homeless guy.
Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Happiness is at your fingertips.
It's a touch of beauty.
