Standing in the Time Episode 23
Just defend her.
Sooner or later
she will make big trouble.
You also defend her.
After Cheng Anye became famous,
he broke up with Situ Jiayi.
Now Zimo also becomes famous.
I'm afraid
we'll repeat their story.
Do you still remember
0.8 euros of bread?
Amid the light from the attic skylight,
there is the city of only you and her.
Why do you want to publish City of Light?
To find you.
Jiayi is inside.
Thank you.
Li Xiao.
Please have a seat.
I hope
you can sign.
Then the book will be complete.
Thank you.
Want a carrot cake?
Carrot cake.
When I was in France,
I often made it for Cheng Anye.
Back then,
it was a luxury for both of us.
Sure.
Ms. Xu,
what brings you here this time?
Have you heard?
Hear what?
Proofreading Section of Huning Press
will be cancelled by the end of the month.
That is to say, from next year,
all the proofreading work in their Publishing Press
will be undertaken through outsourcing.
Ms. Xu, do you still remember
Hou who graduated
from the same proofreading class
with me?
Surely I do.
I wanted to transfer you two
to my Publishing Press back then.
Later,
Huning poached him.
So Hou will
take early retirement?
Hello, Director Xu.
Niu, what's wrong?
Nothing. I just want to get a glass of water.
Niu,
do your teeth get better?
Thank you for your concern.
I extracted a tooth
and filled another one.
Now I don't have a toothache any more.
And my cervical vertebra.
I went to the parlor
you introduced for massage.
It helps a lot.
Good to hear that.
Directors,
look.
The teeth and cervical spine
are parts of the body.
We can extract
decayed teeth at will,
but we can't extract cervical spine.
This part is very important,
so it can only be adjusted.
It can't be extracted, right?
Niu,
periodic massage
needs to be done.
Okay. Okay. Thanks.
Go on with your talk.
Look.
Old comrades
are aware of it.
Ms. Xu,
is the rumor of
our Publishing Press true?
When the work summary meeting
was held in our Publishing Press,
someone suggested
outsourcing.
Someone said that
the technology proofreading
could replace the proofreaders today.
It's bullshit.
But it's not planned.
But I think one day
it will be planned inevitably.
So I come today
to have a talk with you.
In case that happens,
you need to be prepared mentally.
Don't have too much
psychological pressure.
Proofreading Section has been running for so many years.
In case that happens,
we'll have a solution.
Okay.
I have to go.
Ms. Xu.
Are you all right?
Yes, I'm fine.
Director Xu, you are leaving?
You've been working very hard.
It's what we need to do.
Director Xu, bye.
As to the shooting theme of
this edition of RESA Plus,
the material of the main clothing
is mainly tweed,
cotton, linen etc.
Mo has sent
their latest pictures to you.
Mo, you can share
your views with everyone
about this shooting.
Okay.
The texture of this clothing is natural.
If we shoot in the photo studio,
it is difficult to
achieve perfect effect in art display.
We might as well shoot outdoor.
Natural environments,
such as grasslands and forests,
will be better.
What do others think?
I agree with Mo.
Xia Fan, what do you think?
Mo's outdoor shooting
gives me some inspiration.
But look carefully.
The clothes this time
have a strong hand-made texture,
but they don't give a pure forest feeling.
So I want to extend.
If we shoot
in a pure natural environment,
I think it may be a bit too much.
We can shoot
in a natural landscape
with heavy human traces.
Maybe the effect will be better.
OK.
Let's follow
this direction first.
You go downstairs
to search for a suitable location nearby.
As usual, send to the group.
Then we will
make a detailed project.
Okay?
OK.
The meeting is over.
Coffee or lemonade?
Four glasses of lemonade.
Where are you?
I'm writing. What's wrong?
We have to shoot on Friday.
Arrange the time in advance.
Is it about clothes?
Yes.
I think this one is good.
OK.
No. Outdoor shooting.
The location has not been decided yet.
I will send it to you after it's decided, OK?
OK.
The four glasses of lemonade you ordered.
Four glasses. No time limit.
Where are you going?
Go to get lunch takeout.
Lunch takeout?
Is it time for lunch?
It's drawing near.
Well, you're going
against organizational discipline.
Where is Niu?
He has gone to deliver lunch to his grandson.
Deliver lunch to his grandson?
Isn't it his wife's duty?
His wife has to take part in
a square dance competition today.
It's very important.
So she asked Niu to deliver lunch to his grandson.
But his grandson's kindergarten
is very close.
He'll be back soon.
By the way, I will have a meal first.
Mr. Lu.
Wu Yu.
Your favorite documentary literature.
Have a look.
How is Guiguzi?
Almost done.
No, Ms. Shi.
You promised me
you will hand it in before the end of the day.
I will try.
No, you can't just try.
You must make it.
You must.
Mr. Wu,
can you stop it?
What is the personnel ratio of
Proofreading Section
and Literary Editorial Department?
It's almost one to four.
With other editors,
the ratio of proofreading to editing
is one to ten.
It's normal that
we do it slowly.
Otherwise, let's change our places?
Liang,
what's wrong with you today?
So many books…
Enough. Enough.
Am I right, Mr. Lu?
Fine. Stop it.
Fine. Go.
Mr. Wu,
if you have time,
how about helping us
proofread the articles?
I'm not telling a lie.
We're short-handed.
If you're short-handed, you can ask
Human Resource Department for help.
If you can transfer me
to Proofreading Section,
I will proofread for you.
Ms. Shi,
you told me to hand it over today.
You promised me.
I didn't force you.
Am I right? Am I right?
Come here.
Come to my office.
Let me tell you something.
Hand Guiguzi over me
before I leave work today.
Well, Shi Lei,
seize the day.
Who have I offended?
Why did they all behave like that?
This is not true.
Calm down.
The book fair
is about to begin.
What's the situation of them?
Why did everyone
speak in a strange way?
Moreover, they all went against me.
But what did I do?
I just did it for work.
Calm down. Calm down.
OK.
You
really didn't hear anything?
What?
What is it?
It is about the Mai family?
Don't fool me round.
Are you kidding me?
Mr. Lu,
you're my senior.
Well,
Proofreading Section is far away
in the Publishing Press,
but if anything happens,
you must be
the most informed person.
Who doesn't know your relationship
is directly…
Fine. Fine.
Don't flatter me.
What's going on?
Mr. Wu,
did you really not hear
any news about layoffs
or dissolution of Proofreading Section?
Layoffs or dissolution?
That's crazy.
So
you have to forgive them.
What should we do?
Wait.
No, no.
I don't mean that.
I mean
what should we do with
the mood of the staff in Proofreading Section?
What if
this is true?
How could we calm their moods?
Think of some way.
You're smart. Think of some way.
Give it back to me. Give it back to me.
Can you still play?
Let me teach you.
You forgot all about this posture, right?
That's what you taught me.
You brat.
How come you're so talkative?
I have a new posture now.
Let me show you.
Am I handsome?
Why are you so silly now?
Am I silly?
Yes, you are.
Especially in your poster,
you look silly.
Which poster?
The one I saw
at the bus stop.
Why do you
look for me?
You brat,
look at you.
Can't I
look for you when I'm free?
Why didn't your girlfriend come?
She is busy and not available.
I think you're the one who is busy.
How come you're more and more sharp-tongued
just like your dad?
Next time, bring her
to play with me.
She is so nice.
Anyway, she is nicer than you
and more beautiful than you.
OK.
Come on.
Comrades, come here.
Stop your job.
Sit down and listen to me.
Come on, Meimei.
Come here. Come here. Come here.
Liu Haochen. Liu Haochen. Liu Haochen.
Stop playing. Stop playing.
Sit down. Sit down.
Well, be quick.
Listen while eating.
I have
something important
to tell you.
Proofreading Section
works extremely hard
and is under great pressure.
The job arranged
is either heavy
or urgent.
So
it will inevitably affect your mood.
This is also my case.
This isn't serious.
What's more, Editor Wu
is a frequent visitor
to Proofreading Section.
He finds that
we work really hard,
so he advises us
to organize a team building activity.
First,
it relieves stress.
Second,
let's get in touch
with each other.
Third,
Editor Wu wants to extend thanks to
Proofreading Section
on behalf of Literary Editorial Department.
Mr. Lu, what do you mean?
I extend thanks to you
on behalf of Literary Editorial Department?
Do you mean
I have to pay all the fees?
You're stingy. It isn't just about money.
Is he like the training target
of the management?
Think about it.
After you pay the money,
when you come to Proofreading Section,
no one will give you the cold shoulder.
You win.
Come on, that's a deal.
In the team building activity
on Friday,
each of you can bring a family member.
Moreover,
I hope
after this activity,
we can be
a real big family.
So
let's applaud and thank
Editor Wu
for giving us such a good opportunity.
Right?
Thank you, Mr. Wu.
Well,
Mr. Lu,
this kind of activity consumes too much energy.
I won't go.
My body can't stand it.
What's more,
I'm retiring soon.
Don't count me in.
You can go by yourselves.
Mr. Niu,
you want to go home to visit your grandson, right?
Mr. Lu,
I may not go.
There's an animation show on Friday.
I'm thinking about
how to ask for leave from you.
Mr. Lu, give me a chance.
Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Lu.
Forget about it, Mr. Lu.
We all understand your kindness.
But
it is boring.
Right?
I see
it's Literary Editorial Department
which is deep-pocketed.
Editor Wu alone
can pay all the fees for the team building
of Proofreading Section.
This is improper.
Mr. Lu,
gifts blind the eyes,
right?
If Editor Wu gives us
some urgent or important articles later,
we have to…
Liang Yujie,
are you out of mind today?
I still have two articles.
I'm too busy.
If I have time,
I might as well do something serious.
What is something serious?
Shi Lei,
explain it to us.
What is something serious?
Isn't uniting the forces of Proofreading Section
something serious?
Is it for fun?
What are you thinking about?
This is job too, OK?
Mr. Lu, calm down.
Well,
Director Lu
means well.
I support him
a lot.
I always want to find a chance
to thank all the colleagues
and the colleagues of Proofreading Section.
Well, that's it.
Let me tell you again.
This is job.
You must not be absent from the activity
and can bring your family members.
Each of you can bring
your family members
to show them
colleagues around us
and to let them know
the content of our job
and the importance
of this job.
Such a chance
is rare.
Let's cherish it
together.
OK?
It's a deal.
On Friday.
That form?
The form will be changed
according to the direction
I revised.
OK.
Xia Fan,
how's the scene search going?
I visited one,
but it isn't ideal.
The other one
isn't willing to cooperate with us.
I will try again.
It's almost Friday.
Seize the day.
OK, Amanda.
Director Lu said he wanted to organize it
once a few years ago,
but he failed
every time.
So this time,
we can have a barbecue,
go camping
and play the real person Counter Strike.
Is it fun?
I didn't expect you
to have such benefits.
The key is that we can bring our family members.
This is the most fun.
You haven't told me what day it is.
Friday.
Can you go?
Sure.
This one. How is it?
Hello, get me a pair of
seize 37.
Hello,
this pair is size 37.
You can try it on.
OK.
Thank you.
Well,
get me another one.
OK. Wait a minute.
Xiao, try it on first.
I will have a look over there.
OK.
Hello.
What's up?
I have something to ask you.
Go ahead.
When will we film?
Friday.
Can you change the time?
Why should we change the time?
Time has been set.
No,
I'm not sure I can make it on Friday.
I told you
time has been set.
Don't get me into trouble.
Xia Fan,
help me think of a way.
Help you think of a way?
Who will help me think of a way?
The clothes are ready.
I have made an appointment with the makeup artist.
Can you have some professional qualities?
You can replace me with other model.
What's up?
Nothing.
Are you engaged on Friday?
No.
I'm sure I can join the team building activity with you.
How is it?
Well,
how about buying one pair of them?
Don't you have a lot of sneakers?
Yes, I do.
But
I want to have
the same pair of shoes as yours.
Get me a pair of seize 44.
OK.
Thank you.
Zimo,
wait a minute.
What are you doing?
I'm your boyfriend.
It's normal for me
to buy you shoes.
Just because you're my boyfriend,
you have to take this.
What does it mean?
Because sending shoes
means sending people away.
You even believe that?
Sure.
You must be
careful of these words later.
Here.
I see.
Don't worry.
I'm
not going to leave you.
Zhou Zimo,
why do you speak
in such an annoying way?
You're back?
Went shopping with Li Xiao?
Go with us on Friday.
How do you know?
How can I not know?
The place is found by me.
You?
Where is it?
A farm run by my friend.
Proofreading Section lacks of funds
and wants to stabilize the morale
when it's unstable.
But it doesn't have money.
Who will take charge of it?
Me.
Xia Fan.
Zhou Zimo,
are you out of mind?
You can't change the time
or the model as you like.
Do you really think
you're somebody?
Let me tell you,
filming on Friday is non-negotiable.
It's non-negotiable.
Did you hear me?
Ms. Xia, calm down.
Don't be mad.
I'm Wu Yu.
You speak for him?
This is none of your business.
I don't care
what you said.
Zhou Zimo is stubborn.
Do you get it?
He is really stubborn.
Tell Zhou Zimo that
if he quits filming
on Friday,
I will teach him a lesson.
He can have a try.
No, the place isn't settled yet.
How can you film?
Don't be mad.
I will think of a way for you, OK?
Tell me
how will you film?
I will tell you where to film.
That's not your business.
You just need to
get ready for Friday.
Am I clear?
Where do you want to go?
A farm, right?
Then tell me more about it.
What do you need?
I don't want a farm.
What I want is
the artificial natural landscape,
not the original one.
Why do I tell you these?
Just get ready for Friday.
Did you hear me?
Ms. Xia. Ms. Xia.
Ms. Xia, listen.
I'll help you find the scene.
I assure you of your satisfaction.
Xia Fan,
don't be mad at Zimo, either.
He kept begging me
as soon as he went home
and almost knelt down.
Let me tell you,
your business is mine
and I'm duty-bound to help you.
After a connection,
the scene is finally found.
Xia Fan,
tomorrow I will show you videos
and pictures.
Don't listen to Wu Yu's nonsense.
That place is found by Li Xiao for me.
That's it.
You have gone too far.
Clearly I saved you
from trouble.
Let me tell you,
look at how you just flattered her.
Satisfied?
Duty-bound?
Xia Fan is
a cunning woman.
You will overreach yourself.
Do you know?
I saved you.
See?
Have dinner.
Or it will be cold.
Zhou Zimo,
your behavior is simply
for personal gain
and shameful.
Let me confirm with you
the number of people reported.
Mr. Lu, one.
Ms. Shi, one.
Niu, two ones, right?
Yes, I will go with my wife.
Meimei, two ones, right?
Liang, three ones.
Liang,
didn't you say
we can bring only a family member?
Mr. Lu,
you said I can bring
one or two family members that day, right?
Yes, that's right.
My place is given to Liang.
No problem. No problem.
Let me go on.
Haochen, two ones.
Who will you bring?
Former director?
Emmy!
OK?
Is Emmy your family member?
You haven't got married.
Isn't this…
No.
She is. She is.
Will the former director go?
If my mom goes,
what will Emmy do?
Mr. Shi,
you did it on purpose, right?
No.
What if anything happens
without your parents?
What will happen?
No, what will happen?
Fine. Fine.
What will happen?
They won't sleep together.
Why should parents supervise them?
No, you can supervise them.
Liang, go on.
OK. I will go on.
Li Xiao, what about you?
Me?
I'm just not sure.
I…
Li Xiao.
Zimo.
Are you having a meeting?
No. We're counting up the number of people.
Go out.
Li Xiao.
It seems that you will be alone.
Liang.
Zimo,
you really can't go?
Great. Great.
How did you make it?
What a good idea!
Wu Yu is awesome.
Great.
Isn't it just a team building activity?
You want to bring your family members
and play games.
How excited you are.
It seems like a wedding trip.
The boundless horizon is my love.
Flowers are blooming at the foot of the evergreen hills.
What rhythm
is the most rocking?
What's up?
Don't you stay with your wife and child?
Mr. Wu, let me ask you something.
Go ahead.
Stop. Stop.
Calm down.
Is Literary Editorial Department
going to recruit new editors?
Yes, yes, there's such a plan.
Although I've been
in Proofreading Section all this time,
I think
you are very clear about
where my heart is.
How do I know
where your heart is?
No,
I mean
I've always wanted to be an editor
in Literary Editorial Department.
You should know that.
Everyone knows your situation.
We'll consider that.
Great. Great.
Did you hear that?
Proofreading Section
is now in danger.
What do you mean by that?
Proofreading Section is about to be cancelled.
Don't you know?
Don't talk nonsense.
Is it possible
for such a large Publishing Press as Dongfan
to cancel Proofreading Section?
Everybody's spreading it.
Don't you know?
No way.
Think about it.
Why did our director organize
this team building activity?
Team building is for unity.
Do you understand?
You…
All right, Liang.
Don't be paranoid.
Don't talk nonsense, either.
It's a rare chance.
Spend time with your wife and child.
No, Mr. Wu.
Liang,
it isn't proper to go on.
Go. Go. Go.
Go.
OK. Come on.
Pay attention to expressions in your eyes.
Face here a little bit.
Here?
Yes.
Have a try. Have a try.
Zhou Zimo,
look over here slightly.
Turn this way a little.
Zimo, look at the lens.
Look at the lens.
Don't be distracted, Zhou Zimo.
Zimo.
Li Xiao.
Zimo.
Don't run around.
Come back. Come back.
What are you doing?
Li Xiao.
What a coincidence.
It's a coincidence. It's a coincidence.
The whole Proofreading Section is here.
They are here.
Team building. It must be team building.
It's a coincidence.
Pay attention to what you say later.
I didn't tell Xia Fan that
I arranged both things here.
Do you understand?
Don't sell Zimo.
Come here, comrades.
I see.
Let's get together.
Here. Like this.
Let's put things
first.
Behind is our camp.
Let's have lunch first.
After lunch,
let's play the real person Counter Strike.
Why is there such a coincidence?
Xia Fan, what a coincidence.
What a coincidence.
You're here, too.
Indeed. What a coincidence.
You…
We're here for team building.
Look, people of the whole section
are all here.
Team building.
Indeed. What a coincidence.
Xia Fan,
look, my guess is right.
It is team building.
What a coincidence. What a coincidence.
No, it isn't a coincidence.
After we finish filming,
we will go back to the city.
The city?
Zimo…
Will he go back too?
He's a model.
We have to film him.
Zimo.
Xia Fan,
I admit…
Ms. Xia,
what a coincidence!
You really decide to
film here.
Yes.
That's really
a coincidence.
Indeed.
This is fate.
Fate.
Yes. Look, Proofreading Section wants to organize a team building activity
and insist on taking me here.
Because this place is found by me.
Right, Li Xiao?
Yes.
Really.
What a coincidence!
Right?
What a coincidence!
Act.
Go on acting.
It turns out that you three
have discussed
how to trick me.
No.
Xiao,
how did you
learn to lie seriously now?
Zhou Zimo,
I wondered why you weren't late today.
Not only were you not late,
but you arrived early
with makeup.
You just want to finish it earlier, don't you?
I don't think your make-up is okay now.
Remove it.
Let's do it again later.
Photos taken before are voided.
No, no, no.
Don't void them. Don't do it again.
Ms. Xia, look.
The view is so good.
Why don't you finish it earlier?
Call it a day earlier
and stay here
to gather with us.
That's right.
You're usually in the office,
and you don't get a chance to come out,
do you?
What are you three
doing?
You are doing this for private interests.
No. Not really.
Xia Fan, not so serious.
By the way,
what did you say just now?
Zimo's makeup is bad?
Let me see.
I will adjust it.
Let's finish filming quickly.
Xiao, enough.
If you want Zimo to finish filming early
and to have fun with you,
you'd better let us
finish our job,
OK?
Stay away.
No problem. No problem.
Let's have a barbecue after filming.
That's right.
Right. No problem.
Zimo,
when you film,
pay attention to angles.
Li Xiao.
OK. Stay away. Stay away.
Don't be distracted.
Here. Here.
How can you thank me?
Why?
I found such a good place to meet
the needs of team building of Proofreading Section
and your filming.
Shouldn't you thank me?
Wu Yu,
are you particularly enjoying
the feeling of carrying favor with both sides?
What are you talking about?
This is a win-win situation,
you know?
Just tell me
whether you enjoy it.
Slow down.
Liu Haochen.
You're hit.
Meimei.
Zimo, watch out.
Each of us looks at one side.
OK.
Slow down, Zimo.
Li Xiao.
Get ready to die.
I'm hit.
I'll avenge your death, Zimo.
Meimei.
Liu Haochen, is that fun?
Double kill.
Li Xiao.
Liu Haochen.
Will you surrender or get ready to die?
Liu Haochen, how dare you!
Liu Haochen.
Liu Haochen, what are you doing?
Are you ready to surrender
or die in battle?
How dare you, Liu Haochen.
Why not?
Ai Xiaomin, are you out of mind?
Why did you hit my gun off?
I'm out of mind?
You put me in front of you.
What do you mean?
Well, can you play games?
If I didn't put you in front of me,
how could I double kill?
What if it isn't a game?
What are you doing?
This is a game.
Are you protecting me?
Or am I protecting you?
Are you a man?
Ai Xiaomin, are you done?
Look at Zhou Zimo.
How did he treat his girlfriend?
Ai Xiaomin,
you finally told the truth.
When you dealt with
the magazine of Zhou Zimo,
I didn't say anything.
Liu Haochen,
her boyfriend
is better than mine.
Is it right?
If so, you can date him.
Liu Haochen,
what are you talking about?
Calm down.
Stop arguing. Stop arguing.
Fine. Haochen, what are you doing?
Stop.
