[English subtitles are available] [Director: Teng Huatao] [City of the City] [Episode 13] [Total Amount for a House: 3 million; Down Payment: 900,000] [Total Amount for a House: 5 million; Down Payment: 1.5 million] [House Purchasing Plan] [Total Amount for a House: 7 million] [Down Payment: 2.1 million] You’re back. What happened? Are you drunk? You’re drunk. Where have you been? I bought drinks for my senior at the university. Give your bag to me. Why did you suddenly buy him drinks? Come. Sit here. Didn’t he go to an electric vehicle company five years ago? No. No, not electric bikes. It’s an electric car company. Now, he’s a senior executive in that company. So, I just took Dr. Xia and others to promote Henghui with him. Have some water. You want to throw up? Do you want to throw up? Go to the toilet. You feel sick, right? You feel sick. Don’t drink too much next time. Do you hear me? You’re from the Marketing Department of the bank. Helping your client sell their products is not your responsibility. President Zhao is trying his best to buy them more time. I have to try my best… Yes. Turn the time into profit and let onlookers see the potential of Henghui so that we can turn this game around. If I were you, I would invest everything in your boyfriend. If one day he were to become the next Zhao Hui, you’d understand how valuable the title “President” is. You really put yourself out there for your modest salary. You feel better? Feeling any better? Let’s go. Let me invest everything in you, then. Let’s go. Go lie in bed. Look how scarlet your face is. Morning, Manager Tian. Morning. Morning. Secretary Luo. Come in. Is Mr. Wu Junior in the office? He hasn’t come to the office yet. You want to see him? Your dress is so beautiful. It must be very expensive. I just bought it online. What’s the use of wearing nice clothes? I can’t compete with a new graduate like you. No, you flatter me. Actually, I think you just need a belt for this dress. I happen to have one. Why don’t you try it? We’re at work. It’s nothing. Just try it. It won’t take long. Your waist is so thin. It’s good. Why does the belt I bought look better on you? I happen to need a belt for this dress. Okay, you should keep it. No way. No, no, no. I’ve tried this belt. I really can’t pull it off. It looks better on you. Sis, I’ll transfer the money for the belt to you. No need. My boyfriend just bought it online. It doesn’t cost much. If you really gave me the money, I would feel embarrassed to accept it. Let me remove the tag for you. When did you have a boyfriend? I’ve always had a boyfriend. We’ve been together for four years. How wonderful! Unlike you and Mr. Wu Junior, free and single. What is this? This is a contract that Mr. Wu Junior asked me to give to him. But he’s not here. Can I put it on his desk? No. The company has a rule that, except for Mr. Wu and Mr. Wu Junior, no one can just enter the office. Then, please give it to him… Why so polite? Of course. Thank you, Secretary Luo. I’ll go back to work now. Thank you. The belt looks really nice on you. Don’t worry about this. President Zhao said he’d cover it. Did Zhao Hui say that to you? No. He said it to Tao Wuji. You know it too. President Zhao quite admires Tao Wuji. What about you? Do you also admire Tao Wuji? There is one more thing that I want to ask you. Don’t you like a girl named Hu Yue from the Banking Department? W-W-Who told you that? It doesn’t matter. Son, I’ve been there. I have to pass on some things to you. If you really want Hu Yue to be your girlfriend, you must take her for a ride in a luxury car, dine on Western cuisine, and buy her jewelry. Also, keep her away from Tao Wuji. Enough, stop talking nonsense. How am I talking nonsense? I have eyes. Tao Wuji is more handsome and attractive than you. I can see that the girl has her eyes set on Tao Wuji. She doesn’t see you. You don’t understand. You’re the only fool and think of you three as the Three Musketeers. As long as there’s a woman among a group of three, it’ll become a war, not a group of friends. Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know anything. Tao Wuji has a girlfriend. Besides, he asked Hu Yue for me. She doesn’t have a crush on anyone. You’re so fickle and think of others in a bad way. Can you… Wait. Your grandpa has been very sick recently. Go visit him if you have time. Do you hear me? Got it. So annoying. Mr. Li from the supervision department? It’s me, Su Jianren. Here’s the thing. We have a loan that may have some problems. Although the loan was submitted by President Zhao himself, you know, as the person in charge of the Marketing Department, I still think I have the obligation to report it to you. There’s one last thing today. [43rd Floor; Meeting Room] President Zhao, here is a loan application you submitted in person. Please explain it to us. A technology company, even without any proper products, took a loan of five million yuan from the bank. [Shenmao Bank] Now, the company has made a violation. You didn’t send someone to get additional collateral to recover the loss as soon as possible, and instead, you applied for a deferment for them. President Li, here’s the thing. I’ve studied all the products and designs they developed. As long as they can enter the market, they’re likely to become the new leading dark horse in the automotive software industry. Do you know that they borrowed 2 to 30 million yuan from loan sharks? I’ve included it all in the report. Can a few lines of words explain the whole thing? In other people’s eyes, it’s a cover-up. President Li, it wasn’t a momentary lapse of judgment. It was a careful decision made by me and the Customer Manager, Tao Wuji, after an in-depth corporate visit. In this report, there are over 50 pages about the risk evaluation, not just a few lines. Alright, President Zhao. I understand. We all know the Sunshine Project is an important criterion for leaders’ evaluation. However, the leaders don’t want us to provide loans to companies with a high liability ratio and no clear source of repayment just so someone can impress the leaders and achieve better performance. Isn’t this taking money from depositors to seek promotion for oneself? President Li, I’ve been in this industry for over 20 years. Everyone can see what I have achieved. To be honest, I have released numerous loans that are way more than five million yuan. The 5 million yuan loan really won’t be a bargaining chip for me to climb. Based on my experience and judgment, this company is worthy of support. I don’t think your experience and time in the business can prove anything. I have reservations. I disagree. Alright, that’s all for today. Dismissed. Right? Yeah. I think this matter… [Shenmao Bank] President Li. That Henghui Company is teetering on the brink of bankruptcy. If the loan shark presses a bit, the company will inevitably go bankrupt. Zhao Hui insists on getting involved in this mess. It’s a typical bad debt, a dead loan. It’s not easy for him if he is trying to find a scapegoat now. I think this matter is too small. It’s only a few million yuan. President Li. President Su. What are you doing here? There’s a loan to be made today. It’s almost time to get off work. That’s why I’m here to see you. Can’t you wait for me to go back to my office to sign it? What’s the hurry? Are you young people all so impatient? Give it to me. Listen. Don’t listen to what you shouldn’t. Some things are not your concern. [Tao Wuji] [President Zhao, I was wrong regarding the loan to Henghui] [Whether I’ll be fired or transferred back to the business hall, I’ll accept it] [Thank you for everything] [President Zhao] [Silly. I’m not doing this for you] [There is always a way out. Just focus on work] Mr. Xie. I need a favor from you. Hello, Austen. Tao Wuji. I really don’t know how to thank you! Thank me? Yes. Your senior at the university has asked for our detailed technical information. He also said that his boss is very interested in our products and asked Dr. Xia to meet. Do you think it will work this time? Very. By the way, I want to tell you something more promising. Yesterday, the Yuanzhou Trust approached us and offered to take over the loan. Their interest rate is only slightly higher than that of your bank. Yuanzhou Trust. Did they say who pulled the string for you? Isn’t that you? I thought you did. The people from Yuanzhou only said it was someone from Shenmao Bank. I know who it is. Okay, that’s all for now. Good luck. I’ll wait for your good news. Okay, thank you. You’re welcome. Bye. Bye. That’s your car? My mom’s. It’s pretty. It’s better than nothing. Who are we having dinner with today? Just the four of us. Tao and his girlfriend. Well… You and Tao Wuji didn’t deliberately arrange the whole thing again, did you? No, it’s just a meal. It’s okay. I always wanted to see how good Tao Wuji’s girlfriend is anyway. Xiaohui. I have a favor to ask. Could you go along with me to help Cheng Jiayuan? For what? Are you trying to help him pursue Hu Yue? You said Cheng Jiayuan was into Hu Yue. He even gave her a bracelet last time. Yes, he’s a nice guy. But he’s a bit dull when it comes to romance. I’m dull too, so you might have to do it. Okay, no problem. Okay. I’ll ask where they are. They’re here. I’ll go get them. Okay. They’re in the neighborhood. Hurry up. You don’t have to bring anything here. How can we accept them? Wuji, this is your first time here. It’s inappropriate to come empty-handed. Hurry up. This way. He’s just saying that. He took over so smoothly. Hello. Hello. This is my girlfriend, Tian Xiaohui. This is Hu Yue. Cheng Jiayuan. Hello. Hu Yue, Tao told me about you. He said that you’re the heroine among the Three Musketeers in the business hall. Heroine? -Come on.
-I don’t want to be some heroine. You’re better. Kind and beautiful. No wonder Tao Wuji talks about you every day. What did he say about me? I definitely said that you were gentle, kind, and beautiful. Really? Yes. Yes, I can testify. He shows you off every day in front of us. We can’t take it anymore. What’s burnt? The egg… What should we do? -Leave it.
-It’s burned and stuck to the pan. It’s okay. Let’s wash it after dinner. After dinner… I just bought this pan. How about letting me do it? Well, I used to burn the food when I was cooking. I’m familiar with it. Let’s eat and wash it later. Take my bag for me. Okay. Do you have baking soda? I think so. Let me see. Okay. Excuse me. Have a seat, Jiayuan. It’s okay. I’ll air the room. Baking soda… It’s okay. It’ll be fine once the window is opened. It’s okay. Have a seat. I’m really sorry. -Right.
-It’s burnt. Have a seat. I brought two dishes. You even brought dishes over. We didn’t cook anything here. You called that nothing. So much. You even brought so many fruits. Baking soda. Do you drink beer? Yes, beer. Okay. You found it. It’s expired. Can we still use it? Let’s make do with it. Okay. Okay. I’ll put it here. Let me do it. Just wipe it with a scouring pad later, and then it’ll be fine. Okay. Hu Yue, you’re amazing. This is amazing? Come, have a seat. Have a seat. Come on. Then we won’t have fried eggs with tomatoes. It’s okay. There are so many dishes. It’s enough. Okay, we’ll make more later if the dishes are not enough. What do you want to drink? There are beers and sodas in the fridge. I’ll drink this. Alright. Here. Here. Thank you. Well, welcome. Welcome to our home. Welcome to our home. Thank you for making so many dishes. Let’s dig in. Eat. Try it. Try the dishes. Try this. Don’t you like salty food? This is the special sauced beef from my hometown. It’s delicious. -Isn’t it? -Yes. This dish is very similar to one from my hometown. It’s delicious. If you like it, I’ll ask my mom to send more, and I’ll bring it to the bank so we can have it together. Sure. Thank you, Hu Yue. -Thank you, Hu Yue.
-You’re welcome. Hu Yue. Tao told me that Cheng Jiayuan likes you a lot. Wait. Wuji, why do you tell her everything? We’re boyfriend and girlfriend. Hu Yue, Cheng Jiayuan is so nice. He’s simple, kind, and rich. He lives in a big house and drives a luxury car. Congratulations. If you like rich guys so much, you can have him. No. I have Tao. Wuji is the one. It’s not easy for you to make a life in Shanghai alone. Finding a rich boyfriend who treats you well is the best way to go. Come on, let’s drink to that. Wish us all to get what we want. We all get what we want. Come on. Xiaohui. I’m sorry, Hu Yue. Xiaohui’s words aren’t easy on the ears, but she is right. We’re familiar with Jiayuan. He’s nice, loyal, and kind. You… can consider him. Alright. Enough with this. Let’s eat. Let’s eat. Let’s eat. Come on. Cheers. Cheers. Come on. Cheers. Cheers. Come on. Welcome. Welcome again. Be happy. Let’s have a good time. Come on, Hu Yue. Cheers. I’m not feeling well. You enjoy. Hu Yue, don’t… Hu Yue. Don’t listen to them. Didn’t you say to set them up? What did I say wrong? There is nothing wrong with you. I was reckless. I’ll go check on them. Hu Yue. Hu Yue, what’s wrong? Why did you leave so suddenly? Why not? Am I supposed to stay and watch them act all lovey-dovey? But they are a couple. It’s normal. Yes, Xiaohui is a bit straightforward, but… Cheng Jiayuan. I know you like me. But the person I’ve always liked is Tao Wuji. Yes, you are rich, and you’re good to me. But love can’t be fostered because of these. No means no. Well, did Tao Wuji know about it? Of course! Did you ask her who she liked or not? Yes. She said that there was no such person. Jiayuan. Hu Yue left? It turned out this way… I just told Xiaohui off. I wanted to help you, but it ended up like this… You always knew that Hu Yue liked you? I thought you were my best buddy, but you took me for a fool? Jiayuan. Zhao Hui is not bad. He managed to land with Henghui in such an easy way. I’m afraid that he won’t be so lucky next time. Su, you’ve been working for Zhao Hui for so long. You should know him best. From your point of view, is he really that impeccable? Well, President Li. How should I put it? On the surface, Zhao Hui is definitely a gentleman. He won’t take a bribe or flirt with women. He is very cautious when it comes to women. But I don’t know… what he is like in his private life. And I can’t ask about it. Right? Su, with your qualifications and background, you’ve been the vice president for so long. Do you feel a little underappreciated? No. I’m not interested in climbing to the top. My father was quite high-ranking, but he seemed miserable when going home every day. So I don’t want to stand too high. I understand. Sit. Okay. In my opinion, Zhao Hui is a person who can’t take a hint. Dipping his toes in the water, he’ll get all wet sooner or later. But you and I are different. If you and I join hands, we will be uniting in strength. I just came here. If I want to take a stand in this sub-branch, I still need a few reliable friends. So, before I left the head office, President Song told me to keep you close. I think Zhao Hui has also been the president of the Binjing Sub-Branch for a really long time. Su, as long as you’re willing, that position is yours anytime. Since you have already said so, I… Thank you, President Li. You can’t just speak Chinese. You have to read Chinese books too. Alright, that’s it. Give me a hug. My dear daughter. Well… go to bed early. Dad. Dad! Zhao… What? Can you get a room and stay here tonight? We’re leaving this Sunday. Stay here for tonight. I… I still have two files to view back home. How about I come here tomorrow morning and have breakfast with you? Lu. Okay? Please understand… Take the room card and go back to the room. I have something to tell your dad. Hurry up. I’ll come over for breakfast with you tomorrow morning. I promise. Go back first. Be careful. I have to tell you something. It’s a bit crazy, but it really happened. The donation, right? Yes. They’ve reached their donation goal. How much? US$1 million. Dad! Dad! Did we really save our house? Finally. We saved our house. Thank you. International friends are amazing. You blamed me for being starstruck. See? This is the power of fans. I’m going to record a thank-you video and post it on social media. There’s still a crack here. [Caller] [Miao Che] [Caller] [Miao Che] Zhao, I trust your character, but I dare not trust others. The donation seems fine, but you still shouldn’t let your guard down. Don’t let others take advantage of this donation. Things don’t always happen as people wish. Jiayuan. Mom. You are all here too. Dad. How do you feel? Feeling any better? Dad. You’re here. Jiayuan’s mom is here. Dad. I have a big announcement. I’ve remarried Jiayuan’s mom! From now on, we’ll live happily ever after and grow old together. [Marriage Certificate] Look. Right? He is happy. Take it. What is it? There’s no rush for that, Dad. You take it. This is Dad’s will. It has nothing to do with me. It’s all about you and Jiayuan. Dad, don’t worry. You’re fine. What are you doing? You’re dead? Don’t mess with me. Dad! Dad, please don’t mess with us. Knock it off. Look! Find the doctor! Go find the doctor! Dad. Dad, wake up! Dad! Grandpa! -Grandpa! -Dad! I’ll go find the doctor. I’ll find the doctor. Dad! Dad! Dad. My condolences. I’m sorry for your loss. My condolences. My condolences. We’ve gotta go. Take care. Take care. My condolences. Take care. Jianren. Stop drinking. Let him drink. He got the family property anyway. How could you talk to your father like that? Marriage certificate. Jianren, what are you doing? Sister. Enough. It’s fake! I just wanted Dad to be happier when he left this world. [Will] Dad’s will. What are you doing? I don’t want it. I have no concept of money. Jiayuan. Take as much as your grandpa left for you. If you still need more, I can make more money. But today, since you’re all here, I have something to say. Lost in immensity, I wonder who, upon this boundless earth, decides all beings’ fate. Only love. You have love from the woman you love. I don’t. You have love from your classmates and colleagues. I don’t have either. Now, I’ve even lost my dad’s love for me. This toast is a wish for a world filled with love! Alright, Jianren, don’t worry. Jiayuan will have all his share! Have some water. Jiayuan. If one day I were to leave this world, would you cry? You’re crazy. Sit down, and let’s talk. Without a quarrel, okay? What do you want to talk about? Let’s talk about your girlfriend. Where does that come from? She’s not my girlfriend. I guessed right, didn’t I? That girl likes Tao Wuji, right? The moment I laid my eyes on him, I knew he wasn’t someone good. He has a girlfriend and leads another girl on, while my son is so sad. I won’t let him off. I’ll teach him a lesson. Just see how I’ll teach him a lesson. As the mentor, so the pupil. Enough. I had enough. Son, listen to me. This industry is too complex. You can’t trust anyone, let alone open your soul to others. Understand? They have been fooling me all my life. But don’t be afraid. As long as I’m here, I’ll help you all the way up. I’m going to transfer you to the Audit Department right away. I can do that. Okay. Trust me. I believe you can do that. I’ll transfer you to the branch. Okay. The branch is better. Okay. You’ll have a brighter future in the branch. Alright. Brighter future. Go to sleep now. Down a bit. I’ll make a few calls. I’ll think of a way. That Tao Wuji… All right. Go to sleep. Look. I’ll watch. [Old Bastard] [Remark: Old Bastard] [Info] [Remark: Old Bastard] [Edit Contact] [Remark: The Third Su] Hello, Austen. Hello, Tao. Tao Wuji. Let me tell you. Huali has signed the contract with us. Really? They signed the contract? Of course, it’s true. Let me tell you. As soon as the news came out, many investors approached us. But we all declined. We have enough funds and a full load of orders now. Besides, I’ve told our finance department to repay all the principal and interest to you. Our Dr. Xia also stressed that you helped us a lot during our most difficult time. From now on, we’ll come directly to you for loans or other business matters. Okay. Thank you so much. [Break Room] Thank you for your support. That’s it. Keep up the good work. Okay, bye. See you later. It’s done. We made it! Made what? Austen just called me and said that Henghui signed the contract with Huali. We made it. Good. Congratulations. Everyone has seen the news about Henghui. [Regular Meeting of Marketing Department] This time, our department has successfully supported a dark horse in the automobile software industry and also set an example for developing comprehensive financial services for customers. This is a great achievement. Yes. I suggest we give a round of applause to Tao Wuji and Cheng Jiayuan. After the achievement, we need to talk about shortcomings. Here, I have to name and criticize a colleague, Tao Wuji. During the rapid development of Henghui, [Regular Meeting of Marketing Department] they even borrowed tens of millions of yuan from loan sharks. But Tao Wuji didn’t report it to us. Why did you do that? President Su. I… Tao Wuji, as the main person in charge of this project, your client borrowed money from loan sharks, but you tried to hide it. Is that your way of handling post-loan management? I’m sorry. This apology from him seems somewhat insincere. It’s too casual. This is a serious problem. [Regular Meeting of Marketing Department] We’re going to address this matter seriously. People deposit their money in our bank because they trust us. But you failed that trust. That’s very irresponsible of you. Of course. I sometimes think that Tao Wuji did contribute a lot to this project, so I can’t be too strict with him. Well, it so happens that we’ve been assigned a task about benefiting farming. It needs us to send a colleague to Chongming Island. I think you should go to Chongming Island to lay a foundation. I sent you there this time because I want you to learn to be down-to-earth and reflect on your mistakes. Try your best to make up for the mistake and prevent making the same mistakes again in the first place. Right? One more thing. I just received a notice from the HR Department of our branch. The Huadong Audit Department needs a young, energetic, and competent colleague to join their team. After careful consideration, the branch decided to recommend our Mr. Cheng Jiayuan to work there. This is a good thing. The branch and the audit department are all fighting for a talent like Cheng Jiayuan. Cheng, go to the audit department on Monday. We hope you can make new contributions and keep up the good work in the new position. Congratulations. Congratulations. Congratulations. It’s a good thing. Jiayuan. I really didn’t expect that. Congratulations. It’s a good thing. Okay, dismissed. President Su. Guan.
