you'll need clothes

Hi, Director.

ALLEN: Are you still working
on the sales promotion?
252
00:16:05,698 --> 00:16:08,500
Mother's Day is a major event.
We'll offer a 30 percent discount
253
00:16:08,767 --> 00:16:10,235
across all retailers.
254
00:16:10,336 --> 00:16:13,939
Didn't we say no discounts on products
from the department store brand?
255
00:16:15,207 --> 00:16:18,010
Offering a discount
is going to spoil our customers.
256
00:16:18,711 --> 00:16:20,646
It will be a heavy blow to our brand.
257
00:16:21,180 --> 00:16:24,883
If you accumulate sales on regular days
and then give discounts on holidays,
258
00:16:25,050 --> 00:16:26,952
it just balances out.
It's a vicious cycle.
259
00:16:28,287 --> 00:16:29,455
I understand, Director,
260
00:16:30,122 --> 00:16:32,458
but we need to meet
the department stores' demands
261
00:16:32,624 --> 00:16:33,959
for certain promotions.

-ALLEN: I-Shan,

Fine, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been
so blatant about it, okay?

Don't just outright deny us.

Yes, we're not giving discounts
as part of our sales promotions this year.

The stores will also make less commission.
Are you sure?

We're making some adjustments

(SIGHS)
310
00:19:46,585 --> 00:19:51,089
In fact, we were hoping that every brand
in the store would have some discount.
311
00:19:51,490 --> 00:19:54,259
Most consumers wait
for these holiday promotions.
312
00:19:54,993 --> 00:19:56,728
Department stores rely heavily
on anniversary,
313
00:19:56,862 --> 00:19:58,430
Mother's Day, and Christmas sales.
314
00:19:58,530 --> 00:20:00,032

00:20:00,866 --> 00:20:04,002
Yeah? Then maybe now you should...
316
00:20:04,303 --> 00:20:05,737
There's going to be some rough times,
317
00:20:05,904 --> 00:20:08,373
but in the long run,
we believe it's a necessary step.
318

Okay...

00:20:14,146 --> 00:20:15,814

681
00:42:14,765 --> 00:42:17,768
Living in Da'an District isn't so bad.
682
00:42:21,071 --> 00:42:24,408
But with a control freak, no thanks.
683
00:42:32,416 --> 00:42:33,551
(CLANGS)
684
00:42:38,756 --> 00:42:40,991
(BREATHES DEEPLY) I've made up my mind.
685
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,797
(PANTS)
686
00:42:48,532 --> 00:42:49,700
(PHONE BEEPS)
687
00:42:49,767 --> 00:42:55,105
LET'S BREAK UP.
688
00:42:58,375 --> 00:42:59,543
(PHONE BEEPS)
689
00:42:59,610 --> 00:43:02,680
AND BY THE WAY, I QUIT.
690
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:05,616
-I'm leaving.
-Huh? You're leaving?
691
00:43:23,834 --> 00:43:26,904
I-SHAN: Ms. I-Chun, thank youfor holding me in high regard.
692
00:43:29,139 --> 00:43:30,708
But to prove that I'm worthy,
693
00:43:31,642 --> 00:43:33,243
I need to count on myself
694
00:43:33,911 --> 00:43:35,546
and start all over again.
695
00:43:48,058 --> 00:43:50,594
(THEME SONG PLAYING)

00:48:09,620 --> 00:48:11,855
