THE WOMANIZER
Good morning. The espresso.
Thanks, what a good guy.
You're welcome.
Do you know what is this?
I'm gonna go to clean up things.
Coffee--
I mean this.
This... It's in English.
I live in the US, Chinatown.
I understand it but can't read it.
"Outstanding alumni from the University of Cambridge."
I'm the youngest winner of all time.
I worked so hard for this.
You were using it as a wine glass.
The trophy is dispensable. It doesn't match your excellence anyway.
You don't need a metal trophy to prove it.
- Let me help you to clean it. - No!
- Da Mao! - Yes?
Come and handle this.
Okay.
How did you get in here?
With the key. You gave it to me. You don't recall?
I'm not brave enough to give the key to someone like you.
You stole it, right? Give it to me.
Give it to me.
Give it to me!
Don't be like this.
I'm your brother. It's just a key. Don't be so mad.
What do you want this time? You lost everything I gave you last time?
Why do you say that? I just came to see you.
Do you think I'm stupid? You wouldn't show up if nothing happened.
The last time was when you lost a huge amount of money in Macau.
You only came to ask me to pay off your debt.
My big brother!
We are brothers. You're hurting my feelings by holding on to the past.
My dear brother.
Let me make this clear.
I want everything back to normal
when I come back.
Did you hear me, big brother?
Boss, where are you going?
I can't stay here anymore. I'm gonna hang out at the kindergarten.
Let me go with you.
What am I supposed to do if he wants to borrow from me?
Don't look for excuses. You need to stay.
Keep an eye on him.
Watch out for the valuables.
Anything missing will be deducted from your salary.
Ma Xiaoqian.
Have you decided on the engagement?
Don't try to avoid it.
I don't think grandma is kidding this time.
If you go back to Wan Shou Village, you'll be stuck there forever.
I just need to get a boyfriend before she comes here.
If she asks about it, just tell her that I broke up with Xia Hejie.
What happened between you two? Didn't you shower together recently.
Don't mention it again. I feel embarrassed.
He really did me a huge favor. I was very grateful--
So you went to help him take a shower?
I didn't help him--
You sure did. You even slept together.
Yes, we did sleep together, but nothing happened.
No way! Showering and sleeping together, but nothing happened?
It's the truth.
Ma Xiaoqian, Xia Hejie is so handsome, brilliant and confident.
We are from two different worlds.
We have very different values. Things won't work out well between us.
How do you know if you don't even try?
Somethings you just know.
He was hurt so badly.
I think he is hiding his feelings.
You know if you hide something for very long, you won't find it yourself.
Even if I want to love him, I don't have the courage to do it.
You two are driving me crazy.
Xia Hejie.
Morning.
When did you get here?
I have been here for a while.
So did you hear what we--
Yes, I heard it.
Well, since you heard that, let's get everything straight.
Don't make me guess. It makes me dizzy.
Xia Hejie, do you like Ma Xiaoqian?
Yes.
He said he liked you.
I like her as a friend.
Mary, just the same way I like you.
She is like my buddy. She is not my type.
Come on, you think you are my type?
Look at the tree outside. It needs trimming.
Go trim it. I will check your work later.
Okay.
You heard that? That's where our relationship is at now.
Okay, I shouldn't have said all that.
I won't mention it again.
Xia Hejie is a selfish guy. He only loves himself.
He wants more girls to fall for him, but he won't commit to anyone.
That's not the man I'm looking for.
Boss!
Boss?
Leave me alone.
You are in a bad mood? Come and play with me.
Pass it to me, come on.
Pass it to me.
I'm not your boss. Don't come near me, understood?
Why are you mad at me? I didn't do anything wrong.
If you don't want me to call you boss, I will do as you say.
Little guy...
Don't be upset.
Cheer up. I will buy you a new one, okay?
No, it was a birthday gift from mommy.
You broke it.
How about I buy you some stationery?
Really?
Well, I want to a daddy.
Where is your daddy?
I never met my daddy.
Why?
Mommy said that daddy went abroad.
It will be a while before he comes back.
Mommy won't allow me to go out other than going to school.
I want to be like other kids.
Their daddy takes them out to play.
Okay.
What?
I don't have much to do. I could use the experience of being your daddy.
Really? Pinky promise!
So now you go back to class. I will take you home after school. Okay.
Okay.
Let's go.
Bye, guys! Remember to bring tissues with you tomorrow, okay.
Okay.
Run, little bear. You are the best.
Why didn't you get on the school bus. It's leaving right now.
I won't take school bus today. My daddy is taking me home.
Your daddy?
Xiao Tuoluo, are you ready? Let's go.
Daddy.
This is my daddy.
Xia Hejie, why are you making a little kid call you daddy?
Don't accuse me without proof. He made me do this. Only for today.
Daddy, pick me up.
How old are you? I won't pick you up.
But I got sore feet from school.
You can walk by yourself. How old are you?
Can't you just do it? What kind of daddy wouldn't pick up his kid?
What will happen if you pick him up?
Bye, teacher!
Bye-bye.
Daddy, I wanna be Superman.
I'm flying.
- Where is it? - Here it is.
Daddy, don't ring it anymore. Mommy is not home.
Then what shall we do?
I can take you to the park nearby to play.
What are you doing?
What do you have?
Wow, it's the key.
Taking me to play? You are the one who wants to play.
Just for a little while.
I can't. I have to go to a meeting.
Just play with me for a little while.
Isn't a good boy supposed to listen to his daddy?
Just for a little while.
No, be a good kid.
Go on in.
Here.
Go back home now.
Why isn't anyone picking up?
He should have been at home a while ago.
Maybe the school bus is caught in traffic.
I'm gonna call the kindergarten.
Calm down.
We will be home soon and I should be the one making the call.
Go away! Go find your own daddy to play with!
He hurt me!
It hurts, daddy!
Why did you push him? Didn't your parents teach you any manners?
You don't have a daddy.
Why did you imitate your daddy's signature?
You are always the first in the school. What are you afraid of?
Because they are very busy.
Excuses! Stand here!
HEJIE: WE WON'T BE HOME TODAY. DON'T FORGET TO LOCK THE DOOR!
You don't have a daddy!
Dare you say that again. When my daddy comes later,
I'll tell him that you were bullying me.
You don't have daddy!
Hey, kid. You can't hit him.
Let me go.
I will punish you since you don't have a father.
Let me go.
You hit other kids.
Let go of me!
What are you doing?
Daddy!
You are his dad?
Yes, so what?
Your kid hit my son. What did you teach him?
I didn't see him hitting anyone.
I only saw you trying to hit a kid. Your dad didn't teach you well.
Do you want to fight?
Let's go.
Daddy, didn't you have a meeting?
It was canceled. How about I play with you?
Did you know that Xia Hejie was banned by all the TV channels?
Why?
He published an article on the Internet criticizing Meng Chengen.
That offended Meng Chengen so he used his influence
over the media corporations.
He ended Xia Hejie's career in a snap.
It's his own fault. He shouldn't have said that.
When I think about how he screwed up your premiere, but the court
only sentenced him to do community service, I just get so angry.
Amy, stop the car.
Xia Hejie...
Why is Xiao Tuoluo with him?
Do you want to fly?
- Do you want to fly? - Yes!
Daddy, can I ask you a question?
Sure.
Is the zoo any fun?
I don't know. Never been there.
Was your mom very busy, so she didn't take you there?
You are thinking too much.
I'm not. I just care about you.
I have never been to the zoo either.
- Can we go to the zoo later? - Okay.
Xiao Tuoluo!
Mommy!
Xiao Tuoluo, don't call her that. It's auntie.
Auntie...
Why are you with him?
That's simple. I took him home but no one was there.
I had no choice but to bring him here to play.
Mommy...
I made him take me out to play.
Don't be mad at him.
Why did you take him home?
What is wrong with this kindergarten? Lets a criminal take a kid home?
That's out of line! I need to talk to them.
Amy, let it go.
Don't you wanna go home?
Thanks for taking him home.
No problem. Xiao Tuoluo said that his mom was too busy
to pick him up or take him out to play.
That's why a criminal like me took him home.
So you are Xiao Tuoluo's mother.
Raising a child is not like having a pet.
You can't just give him attention when you feel like it.
Whatever the reason that makes him feel like he doesn't have a dad,
at least make sure he has a mom.
Mind your own business! Keep your big mouth under control!
Let's go home. Don't talk to this weird person anymore, okay?
Be a good boy. Go home with mommy.
Come on. Let's go.
Hey, mom.
Let me help.
Actually I've always wanted to ask you out to dinner.
Since your agent who controls your freedom is here, maybe some other day.
You can ask, but I may not have time.
Then let me check my schedule first, I will call you later.
It's just you and me. Bye.
I kept asking daddy to turn around more quickly.
Really?
Stop turning around. You will fall.
See?
That was fun.
He is not your daddy.
Keep away from him!
Mommy, why is godmother mad?
I don't know. Never mind.
I'm not mad.
Did you finish eating? Go brush your teeth if you've finished.
Give me a kiss.
Amy, he is just a little boy.
He did that just for fun. Why does it bother you so much?
It doesn't bother me.
I just care about him.
He was so close to Xia Hejie.
I'm worried that if it slips out,
if Xia Hejie finds out about the relationship between you and Xiao Tuoluo,
he will definitely reveal it to the press,
using it to promote his popularity.
Amy, I had never seen Xiao Tuoluo so happy.
Xia Hejie is right. I should spend more time with him.
And today,
Xia Hejie played with him in the park.
To be honest, I was moved.
What is wrong with you, Amanda? He has been banned by the press.
He can't take care of himself. Don't be so silly and sympathize with him.
What's on your mind?
Amy, I would like to have my birthday party next weekend.
What do you think?
Your birthday is next month.
I know, but I want to have the party earlier.
Can you send an invitation to Xia Hejie and Meng Chengen?
I want them to take this opportunity to clarify the misunderstanding.
The issues are between them. You don't need to worry about it.
Xia Hejie helped me find my "old lady". Now he is so wonderful to Xiao Tuoluo.
I want to help him however I can.
Come on.
Xiao Tuoluo stays here overnight. Just go home and get some rest.
I know you are tired. Let's go!
Relax!
I know! You just relax.
Get some rest!
Good night!
MENG CHENGEN
Hello?
ALL DRESSES CUSTOM MADE OR WHOLESALE
Is this necessary?
It's fine this way.
I'll write it down.
I'll be back when it is done, okay.
What do you know?
Xiaoqian is getting engaged. I need to dress up.
Mom, didn't you say that we should keep it low key?
That's right, but we also want to be up to standard.
If we don't wear something respectable, the future in-laws will think that
we don't care about the wedding.
Mom...
Your dress is to be made so big,
it will be too baggy.
Too baggy?
No worries, I can just wear a few NuBras.
Mom, you are so fashion forward.
You know about NuBra which is so fashionable.
Don't you think I'm old. I catch up with the times.
Not only NuBra, even the tiny pants
that the girls are wearing, right! It is called T-back.
Oh my god, mom. Wait a second. I have a call.
Mom, it's for you.
Hello?
Is this Miss Ma Yanghen speaking?
Yes, this is she. Who is this?
Mom, who is it?
Hi, I'm Xiaoqian's friend.
I have something to tell you.
Xia Hejie is dating two women.
He is seeing Xiaoqian, but is also pursuing this supermodel, Amanda.
Mom, who is that?
Hi, young lady, you said you were a friend of Xiaoqian's.
Could you tell me your name please?
I'm sorry I can't tell you that.
I'm just calling to tell you
this Saturday Xia Hejie is going to Amanda's birthday party.
Miss, you don't even want to tell me your name.
How am I supposed to believe you?
You don't need to believe me. You can go and check it out yourself.
I will send you the address and the time. Bye.
Do you think they will come?
I think so. Ma Xiaoqian's grandma cares a lot about this.
When they got published in the newspaper, she was so mad, she took her home.
Xia Hejie went to Chiayi to talk to her grandma.
You know every detail of what Xia Hejie did.
Know yourself, but know your enemy better. That's my principle.
What did Xia Hejie do to offend you?
I heard that you got him banned.
He is too arrogant. I want to teach him a lesson.
I also want Amanda to see how he really is so she doesn't get fooled.
I'm also worried about this. That's why I agreed to help you.
So we have the same goal. We both want to protect Amanda.
If she knew about Ma Xiaoqian and Xia Hejie,
she would definitely take a step back.
Sam, do you plan to pursue Amanda?
Yes, do you have any objections?
Sam, Amanda
is like my little sister. I won't let anyone hurt her.
I hope you are not pursuing her just because it will make you look good.
I hope you can see her virtues.
She is a wonderful woman.
She deserves devotion from any man.
What do you mean by making me look good?
I think you'll understand that when the time is right.
I'm leaving now.
Behave at her birthday party.
INVITATIONS AMANDA'S BIRTHDAY PARTY TIME: 2010.02.27 19:00
Boss...
Amanda's birthday party...
All the big names from the industry will be there.
Our future depends on this.
Also, Meng Chengen will be there with a group of people to show off.
So I arranged eight bodyguards for you. Very strong, all above 180 cm.
I also figured out what present you should take.
A hand bag from Bottega Veneta's new collection and 999 roses.
- And-- - Cancel them all.
Cancel the flowers, the bodyguards and the bag.
Okay, I get it. Boss,
you're tight on money of late.
No worries. I can use my credit card. We can settle it later.
Da Mao...
How can you compete with Meng Chengen?
You'll only embarrass yourself competing with someone born with a silver spoon.
But it's Amanda's birthday, you have to get her a present.
The key to a good present,
is not its value, but the thought you put into it.
Meng Chengen is breaking the bank for it. I will win by creativity.
So you want to...
Emerge as a surprise from the birthday cake and show your man power...
You will know when the time comes. You have a lot to learn...
That's why you're the boss.
She is like my buddy.
She is not my type.
Baby...
Do you want me?
Mary...
Are you okay?
Amanda's birthday party! There will be many hot guys. Dress up!
To compete with the models.
When did you learn to put your legs this way?
Long time ago.
Ma Xiaoqian!
My calendar!
Ma Xiaoqian!
These socks don't cost much. Why are you repairing them?
I don't want to waste them. No one can see them anyway.
Stop doing it. Go change for Amanda's birthday party.
I don't wanna go. I have a lot of laundry to do.
You can do it any other day!
You're afraid to see Xia Hejie?
Why would I be afraid?
So come to the party!
Didn't you want a boyfriend? A birthday party is the perfect opportunity.
No boyfriend will come out from doing laundry.
It's just I don't really know Amanda's friends. It will be awkward.
Who do you think I am?
I'm the queen of all parties!
Just follow my lead.
Xia Hejie is pursuing the top model. You can try the same thing.
Ma Xiaoqian, come and eat something.
So many choices!
What the hell are you doing?
You look like a crazy stalker.
Crazy stalker?
I'm recording the party.
So many hot girls. I'm telling you...
Very strange.
Why don't I get to meet girls like this on blind dates?
Come on, miss. I'm the cameraman.
Let's stay away from him.
He will ruin and embarrass us.
You're right.
Here is a huge one.
Try some of this, very good.
Hi...
Hello, my name is Mary. How about you?
Hello.
Do you like chubby girls?
Sir...
- Happy birthday! - Thank you! Thanks for coming!
Xiaoqian!
Amanda!
Thanks for coming!
Thanks for inviting me. You look stunning.
Thank you! You look great as well.
This is a small gift for you. I made it myself. Check it out.
You made it yourself?
That's so pretty, so cute! Thank you!
You don't have to put it on right now. Let me keep it for you.
Xiaoqian, such a thoughtful gift from a friend is way better than any jewelry.
Don't be so silly.
Thank you!
Let me introduce you to some friends. Come on.
- Amanda, happy birthday! - Thank you!
Let me introduce you to my friend, Ma Xiaoqian.
- Hey, how are you? - Hello.
She is a kindergarten teacher.
Meng Chengen is here.
Xiaoqian, excuse me for a moment.
Sure, go ahead.
- Take care of her for me. - No problem.
God, here comes Meng Chengen.
What a golden bachelor! He brings bodyguards even for a birthday party.
Happy birthday!
Thank you!
Here is your birthday gift.
I spent a lot of time looking for it.
Let me put it on for you.
If it were me, I would ask him to marry me right here and now.
Don't exaggerate! You can't measure love with money.
You're right. Money is kind of tacky, but I don't mind some diamonds.
Sam...
This is too expensive. I can't accept it.
However, I will wear it until the party ends. Thank you!
Okay.
You don't accept my gift, but you can't say no to the first dance with me.
The movie script is ready.
Funds from China and Hollywood are also on the way.
I'm thinking go big or go home.
We will have a Hollywood male star to play the main role. What do you think?
Sam...
Isn't it too risky for me
to play the leading role in such a big-budget production?
Xiao Tuoluo.
There are many guests today.
You need to be a good boy.
Everyone is going out their way to see me.
Or trying to get me to invest in them and help them make their dream come true.
You are reminding me of the risk of the investment.
That's interesting.
How come such a wonderful woman like you doesn't have a man around?
I have a lot of suitors, but they are only interested in the supermodel Amanda.
