Episode 20 How are you? How old are you?
As for the raw material,
you must continue...
Chi Xin, you are clever.
Let me make it simple.
In the entire building,
I don't want to see you any more.
Don't be arrogant too early.
I won't let you make it.
To keep increasing
the bonuses in the bonus pool.
Leave first.
I came to say something to you.
Please.
First,
if you dare to harm Ding Xiaorou
a little bit,
I will never let you go.
Touching. It's really so touching.
It's a pity that she can't hear this.
The next sentence.
It's for you.
Conduct yourself well.
Ding Xiaorou.
Why are you here alone?
You don't know aunt at home
is worried about you?
Are you touched
especially by
your own kindness?
Do you know
what consequences your self-righteousness
brings to others?
When I came here,
I didn't want to leave like this.
There are still many things
I haven't done yet here.
My friends,
my dream,
and my show window.
Ding Xiaorou.
You asked us to come so early
and dress like this for what?
My mom thought that I went to the company every day
for work.
You can tell her
you work a part-time job
and won't go to the company every day.
In the heart of my mother,
if you don't work on a daily basis,
you won't work seriously.
Are you fighting or working?
Watch out.
I won't bother you.
Let me send you to the hospital.
It's me.
Nan Sasa.
This is Xiaorou's mom.
She especially came to eat ice cream.
Xiaorou's mom.
Mom.
Aunt. Aunt.
Hello, Mr. Zhou.
Hello. Hello, hello.
Hello.
What did you say?
It's me.
Aunt is really okay?
Apple now
also has dual-card and dual-standby phones?
Seize, seize the chance.
Curse.
Fine.
I have to hang up if there is nothing else.
What's wrong?
I don't buy any stocks.
Aunt.
Let me take you there.
Here.
Aunt.
This lock is broken.
Broken.
Let's go to the men's washroom.
That men's washroom should be empty.
Let me check it.
Can we formally
have a calm talk?
I actually have
a good job now.
I transmit money
to home every month, right?
Come home with me tomorrow.
What home?
Of course the home in our hometown.
Can you take a photo for me?
Okay.
Three, two, one.
One more.
Okay.
All right. Take a look.
I'm starting.
Wait.
What's wrong?
What can I help you?
No need.
Eating more is enough.
That's what I wanted to do.
It's pretty poetic.
I'd like to go downstairs first.
What you are going for?
Since you want to indulge in it,
let's indulge till the end.
Okay?
Okay.
Come here.
Wipe it.
You are wet.
Never mind.
Is it too crazy
for us to do this?
Too crazy.
Enjoy it.
Guitar.
You also know how to play the guitar?
Yes.
A little.
At such a good atmosphere,
let me sing a song for you.
Gladwell. Cheers.
For Gladwell, cheers.
In fact, I think
we have something
in common.
Which is similar? Eating instant noodles?
Of course not.
You surely won't
stay in this city because instant noodles
here are delicious.
What's the same is that,
we both
have dreams that we can't give up.
So however late I stay up,
I will get up in time the next morning.
What wakens you is not the clock,
but the dream.
It may be also
the dust machine at your home.
-It rains. -No way.
I just had several bites.
Protect the dish.
Lip. Lip.
Take, take my clothes.
It's rare for me to indulge myself.
I'd like to go downstairs first.
What you are going for?
Since you want to indulge in it,
let's indulge till the end.
What are you doing? Come back.
Chi Xin.
Coming.
What's this?
Waterproof cloth.
Come to help me.
Okay?
Okay.
Come here.
Wipe it.
You are wet.
Never mind.
Is it too crazy
for us to do this?
Too crazy.
Chi Xin.
You take to her?
I mean,
you take to that girl
called Ding Xiaorou, right?
Not at all.
I, I just...
I just...
In fact, I should thank her
for letting me see
you becoming irrational completely
for a girl for the first time.
Enjoy it.
The rain seems smaller.
Yes.
It should be shower.
If it's in the daytime,
we might see the rainbow.
Coming.
Guitar.
You also know how to play the guitar?
Yes.
A little.
At such a good atmosphere,
let me sing a song for you.
=Why do birds suddenly appear?=
=Every time you are near,=
=just like me,=
=they long to be=
=close to you.=
=Why do stars fall down from the sky?=
=Every time you walk by,=
=just like me,=
=they long to be=
=close to you.=
=On the day that you were born,=
=the angels got together=
=and decided to create=
=a dream come true.=
=So they sprinkled moon dust=
=in your hair=
=and put a starlight=
=in your eyes so blue.=
=Close to you.=
Xiaorou who has
9,560 hours left
to become a master.
=Close to you.=
Once the photos are known by the public,
it will cause very bad
impact to you, Ding Xiaorou
and the company.
What's worse,
I will also be implicated.
But Chi Xin,
I control the cards now.
Whether we should continue to gamble
depends on you.
This morning,
I specially swore to Little Star
that
I must live up
to my mom's trust.
I will take show window design
as my lifetime dream.
So the next episode
will stress
the conflicts between stars
to keep increasing the bonuses
in the bonus pool.
Leave first.
Stop talking first.
Let me guess it.
Your Plan B is to give up?
Isn't it what you want?
You are smart.
I came to say something to you.
Please.
First,
if you dare to harm Ding Xiaorou
a little bit,
I will never let you go.
Touching. It's really so touching.
It's a pity that she can't hear this.
The next sentence.
It's for you.
Conduct yourself well.
Loser.
He resigns.
How can it be?
I guess he must be poached
by another company with high salary.
I should have had hot pot
in your place yesterday.
Can you imagine how boring it is
to go to the concert with him?
What's wrong?
He fell asleep in the middle of the concert.
He even snored!
I mean,
I would bury myself
if I could find a hole in the ground.
Hello, Zheng Ze.
What?
OK, see you tonight.
Any good news?
Zheng Ze said he has a good news
for me.
What?
No next job?
Then you really intend to resign without any preparation?
I am really tired.
I can't take you away.
And the show
“Sandstorm of Love”
still needs you.
Sorry.
You
really want to resign?
Yes.
You.
You...
Have you ever thought about
“Sandstorm of Love”?
You saved it.
Leave it to Zhen Zheng.
Leave it to Zhen Zheng?
Coming.
Here.
You haven't eaten it for a long time, right?
Eat more.
Being confused by you for a long time,
I have a good appetite now.
Tell me. What's the good news?
A very big case.
What case?
Is it bigger than Matchstick Paradise?
Make it specific.
Specifically,
I have to meet the sponsor tomorrow
to talk face to face.
But I have made the preliminary contract
for you.
Isn't that person from Taigu?
Surprising, right?
I said it.
Your talent can get
more people's recognition.
Where is that person from?
A boss
who especially appreciates your window design
He inquired and learned that
you have a partnership with
Taigu Group.
So, he deliberately found me.
Terrific.
Let me treat you to this meal.
This must be your account.
Yesterday, I missed
such a rich hot pot for this case.
Then you have to eat more
for compensation.
=Love is not at all here with us.=
=We can be strong.=
Qi Ling.
You know what?
The wine culture
can be permeable.
Boss.
Is this real?
Almost.
You know what?
When he just came,
his drinking capacity, you know...
I have greater drinking capacity than you.
Boss, for so many years,
how much wine did I drink for you?
Tell us yourself.
=Love is like a waterfall.=
=I don't want to hold you.=
=Lonely. Lonely.=
=There is nothing, no one, no way.=
=I had it all.=
=I fought it all.=
=Now I want to let you go.=
=What if you would find?=
=What if you would hurt me?=
=Hurt to love.=
You charge for the jam, too?
I used only one spoonful.
You'd be earning one million yuan a year
and you'd have long paid off your debts
if you applied your petty shrewdness
to proper business.
I don't know why.
When I get good news,
I want to share it with him at once.
Maybe it's just like what he said,
we are both
striving for our dreams lonely
in this city,
so we hope to
bring more encouragement
to each other
after getting every little achievement.
Bye.
Bye. See you tomorrow.
Bye.
Boss, how about you leave first?
Sir. Sir.
Sir.
-Go back. -I've called for a taxi.
Look, I did call for a taxi.
I'm worried you can't make it.
Never mind.
Watch out. Get in the car.
I can have a rest.
Don't turn to me again
when the audience rating is not good.
The company has arranged a new program for you.
“Sandstorm of Love,”
a program that helps couples
who have broken up to get back together.
Its audience rating is so low.
No any production director
is willing to take it over.
Basically, it'll be removed
after this episode.
I've reminded you ahead of time.
In our industry,
long vacation equals resignation.
You don't deny this, do you?
Leave it to Zhen Zheng.
On the road of chasing dreams,
we may have to leave hometown
and may experience frustration and mock.
We may be doubted
or we may
eat instant noodles in the rent room
every day
but dare not let others learn this.
We may even slapped
into the earth by the fate,
watching all our efforts
gradually turning into bubbles.
We may even
doubt whether
we should continue or not someday.
Sometimes it's
just self-consolation
to stick to it.
I'll keep these
depressing words to myself.
I always tell others that
when they stick to it, they'll get something anyway.
That's what I
tell my friends.
If someone
still sticks to it like me
after 31
unsuccessful confessions,
why can you guys
give up?
Later, I learned
that we can let go
of many things
on this excruciating journey.
But the one thing we must hold fast to
is dream.
Even if this hope
is as faraway as the starry sky
and as tiny as a matchstick,
it's the light that urges us on
when we travel in darkness.
What are you watching?
Who comes to find me
to design show window this time?
Working in such a building,
he is
a legendary business tycoon
or a collector
pursuing artwork, right?
One more piece of news.
The budget is nice.
Really?
How much?
No upper limit.
No upper limit?
Make dreams
after you meet him.
You don't understand.
I can finally live
the rich life as you do.
Let's go.
OK.
Hello.
Are you Miss Ding Xiaorou
and Mr. Zheng Ze
who came to discuss
the window design with Mr. Mao as agreed?
-Yes. -It's me.
Okay. This way, please.
Let's Go.
Please take a short rest here.
Our boss will come soon.
Okay.
It seems delicious.
Delicious.
This one is also delicious.
Hello, Mr. Mao.
Welcome.
Miss Ding.
Hello, Mr. Mao.
I'm Ding Xiaorou.
I won the bidding
of your Matchstick Paradise.
One million yuan?
It's you.
Thank you, Mr. Mao.
Miss Ding.
I like your work
Matchstick Paradise so much.
In your work,
I can see the rich emotions.
Back then, I told myself,
the design work of the ginkgo tree
must be done by you.
So this time,
you want me to design the ginkgo tree?
Yes.
This is not only a ginkgo tree.
Mr. Mao, just one photo?
Yes, just one photo.
Mr. Mao.
I can't understand what you mean.
You mean
we are going to
build a ginkgo tree
as same as that one in the photo?
Yes.
We are going to build one?
I thought I misunderstood it.
Miss Ding.
Keep this card.
It has no password.
I've told Zheng Ze
the budget has no upper limit.
So you don't need to
tell me your remuneration now.
You can tell me
based on your actual difficulty of building the ginkgo tree
and your efforts
in the end.
Hello, Ms. Ding.
Ms. Ding, this is the design drawing
sent this morning.
Please check it.
Don't you know
I'm very fastidious and strict?
How can you send me such a drawing?
But this has been
-the 920th... -Forget it.
Use the first draft.
I think the original one is pretty good.
Ms. Ding, you are wise.
This is the Black Card in legend, right?
Thank you, Mr. Mao.
Mr. Mao, I have another question.
When will we start?
Immediately. Right away.
We'll set out after three hours.
Three hours?
I forgot that I have resigned.
Hello.
Hello, Xiaorou.
I've checked the weather in the place.
The temperature difference between morning and night is quite big.
Remember to take more clothes.
Okay. I know.
You need to take good care of yourself.
Heard it?
I'm not a kid.
And I will come back two days later.
Don't worry.
I believe you can make it.
Go for it.
Thank you for your lucky words. Bye.
Bye.
No, no.
I'd better finish
the books and films I piled.
Hello.
Yes. Please go ahead.
I'm not interested in it. Thank you.
I said I was not interested in it.
Director.
Sorry, go ahead.
Hello.
I'd like to meet Mr. Mao.
Okay.
Are you Miss Ding.
Please follow me.
Mr. Mao, Miss Ding has arrived.
Well, ask her in.
OK.
Mr. Mao.
Miss Ding, please be seated.
It's you.
You know what?
Following me this time
is worthwhile.
Look at this.
It's the standard
of the five-star touring group.
Yes.
Boss, you are right.
Compare this with the car we took
in the crew back then.
Learn from them.
Okay.
-Thank you. -Never mind.
By the way,
why did you come to meet Mr. Mao?
Mr. Mao,
as for the finance,
please think it twice.
No need.
I agree to finance it
because of you.
I appreciate your talent.
Since you quit,
is it meaningful for me
to continue to finance it?
If you agree to
cooperate with Miss Ding
to successfully complete this work,
I can promise you
to continue to finance your program.
For cooperation.
How is it?
Pretty good.
Keep your seat belt on.
No need.
I think this car is quite safe.
You are the boss.
You need to pay attention to your safety.
Director.
Everybody.
Let me say something.
In view of the special circumstance of
Chi Xin's sudden demission without permission,
the next episode of your program
will be taken over by Tong Liang.
This...
Director.
Tong Liang knows little about this program.
Yes.
I believe we can do a better job
under the leadership with Xin.
Yes.
I understand your thinking.
But this is
a deliberate decision of the superiors.
I hope you can support it.
But...
But, director, I...
I see.
Since the leader has made a decision,
we will follow it.
See.
Senior employee
has high consciousness.
Director, don't worry.
Since this program is left to me,
I will try my best.
Don't talk big only.
Because of Chi Xin's resignation,
the sponsor almost stops the finance.
Now this program
is a big problem.
Handle it well.
Why are you
all look so worried?
Guys,
from today on,
your boss
is me.
Well,
send all the previous information
about the program
to my office.
By the way,
make it in 10 minutes.
-How is it possible? -10 minutes?
How...
Get to work.
Zheng.
Say something.
Let's get to work.
Scenery here is so great!
How dangerous!
You know what?
This is called collection of folk beauty.
I can have inspiration in this way.
What did you say?
This car is pretty good.
Originally, I thought
I must buy
such a car
with panoramic sunroof once I got money.
In this way,
even if I work late,
as long as I look up,
I can see the starry sky
and all my fatigue
will be eased.
Clodhopper.
Didn't you also buy
a car with panoramic sunroof?
Why?
You said it just now.
Hello, Zheng Ze.
What's up?
Is everything going smoothly?
Yes.
Is it very tough on your road?
Guess what?
I have an assistant
Chi Xin temporarily.
Things are tough for him.
Chi Xin?
He is with you?
Mr. Mao is
the sponsor for “Sandstorm of Love.”
So this time Producer Chi
acts as my assistant.
Although he is
clumsy as an assistant,
I can also
accept the fact
as they are both my friends.
Well, don't worry about me.
You will have something
to discuss later, right?
I will contact you after I arrive.
Okay.
I wait for your return.
Okay.
Bye.
Okay, bye.
Boss comes.
I announce something here.
Due to my poor health,
I will rest for half a year.
Zhen Zheng
will be responsible for all business
of “Sandstorm of Love.”
No way.
You lost.
Admit defeat for bet.
Give me the money.
Give me the money. Come on.
Give me the money.
Here you are.
Did you collude
with the company...
What are you doing?
Boss.
All people in the company said you are going to resign.
They didn't believe my words.
So we made a bet.
Boss, is it real?
How come it's so sudden?
This is my temporary decision.
But what are you
so happy for?
You look so happy.
Are you so happy that I leave?
No, no. Boss.
We don't mean this.
We are on the same side.
You said you would
resign for half a year, right?
You must
give up our program.
Which company will you work for later?
How about your annual salary?
I won't work for another company.
Come on.
All people in the company know this.
Yes, yes.
Industrial elite like Xin
shouldn't do work unworthy of his talents here.
Yes, yes.
And Tong Liang always
drags your feet.
But director always protects him.
We can't bear it early.
-Yes. -Yes.
Wherever you go,
I will follow you.
God,
I came here for you.
Boss,
you can't abandon us.
Yes.
Why don't you
believe my word?
Xin,
don't fly alone.
Let's fly together.
Fly.
Let's earn money together.
If you are very sure that
you like someone,
you must strive to
win her heart.
I support you.
Thank you, Sasa.
This guy is so boring
that he won't know
the implied meanings of fish head and fish tail.
Son, have some egg.
I wonder
how she is now.
Will she
miss us?
Cheers.
Mouth.
Your mouth is covered with it.
Chi Xin doesn't plan to jump ship.
Why did he leave office
without reasons?
Boss never does
anything without Plan B.
It seems a bit strange.
Thank you.
You like to watch the starry sky.
In my childhood,
every time
I felt lonely,
I would open the window
to look at the starry sky.
Then I would think the world
is so big that
I believed
someone was waiting for me
to watch the starry sky with me
in a corner of the world.
I had been
a materialist,
but now
I'm willing to believe
I will meet
who I should meet.
An excellent artist
must create works with emotions.
I shared my story with you
because I also saw
a tree
in your heart.
You may name any conditions.
Impossible.
You are quite handsome.
How about you have a try?
Opposites attract.
Me?
I won't agree even if you want to plant a money tree.
Sister,
don't be mad.
It must have been presumptuous of us to do this.
But, can we ask you
about the real reason?
Don't laugh at me
after I tell you.
What? Do you get Plan C?
Why do you stare at Sister Ding?
Is she your girlfriend?
Swordsmen,
do not tell A'hua
we are running towards this direction.
My Black Card.
I am so lucky.
Be careful in the future.
Don't be so careless.
How is it?
Have you made a decision?
Well, have a pleasant cooperation.
What were you thinking just now?
I made a wish
to the sky.
You even believe in this?
I suddenly had the idea.
Can you share it with me?
The wish
will not come true if you speak it out.
The relationship between woodpecker and tree
is protection.
When we really concern
and care about someone,
we will want to protect him
instinctively,
to protect
all beautiful things on him.
Hello.
Sorry,
the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable.
As expected.
A piece of shit.
It's not about how you do it to make it good.
No matter what you do,
you can't do it well.
Xiaorou!
Hold my hand.
Help!
Don't let go.
