[My Way]

[Episode 7]

Did the roadshow go well?

Yes.

I talked to the director as you said.

He agreed.

That's good.

The new people came when you're out.

One is Xun Xiaobai. I poached her.

Many reports about the popular boy

were made by her.

She is good.

The other one is Fang Yuan.

You asked for her

once you saw the resume.

I know you're professional.

But

Peak doesn't need any layabout。

Boss Shan,

Fang Yuan is my old colleague.

I recommend talents no matter I knew them or not.

She is a perfect person.

She can do everything well as long as she wants.

Of course, seeing is believing.

You'll see.

Xiao Wei,

is the milk tea here?

Be quick.

Finally! Li Cheng.

Hurry up. Wang Man has been waiting for you.

Sorry to be late.

He's the one?

Can he do it?

He's a famous producer in our circle.

That was in the past.

He's been a boss for so many years,

but look what he ends up.

Li,

let me formally introduce.

This is Wang Man,

the most popular singer of the year.

This is Li Cheng,

a famous producer in our circle.

Nice to meet you.

Hi.

Take a seat.

Come on.

Well,

we're going to work together soon.

I listened to your song from last year.

Not bad.

But you sing middle notes better than high notes.

You can try it next time.

It's a shame to only sing these songs.

I chose these songs myself.

Hurry up. What took you so long?

Hurry up.

Give it to the guests first.

Come on.

Be careful. It's a bit hot.

Have some milk tea.

Have some milk tea first.

I'll leave if there's nothing else.

Wait.

Li Cheng.

This is Xiao Wei.

Nice to meet you, Mr Li.

She's listened to your songs since middle school.

Really?

What songs did you listen to?

Li Ge.

Li Ge!

Li Ge.

Have you heard of it?

No.

She's too young.

Is it the weekend today?

Yes.

Great.

Miss Wang Man,

what do you like eat?

Let's have dinner together this evening.

Let's talk while eating.

-Let's talk while eating. -Cai, I won't be available this evening.

I promised my wife to go home for dinner.

I won't either.

I have an appointment.

I have to go.

Take the milk tea.

Okay.

See the guests out.

Miss Wang, let me lead the way.

Be careful.

Take care.

She's been waiting for you. Where have you been?

We're like trapped animals in our middle age.

Li Cheng must have encountered difficulties,

so he chose to return to the production industry.

Having met

my former colleague Xu Yang here,

I could feel that

me getting into this company

is not that simple.

[Dilemma]

[Deputy General Manager Office]

Come in.

Fang Yuan.

Have a seat.

Want some coffee?

Oh, I almost forgot,

you don't drink coffee after six.

This hasn't changed, has it?

No.

I knew you won't change.

I'll get you some water.

We haven't seen each other for eight years.

Eight years? That long?

Yes.

It's been eight years. Time flies.

I didn't expect you

to be isolated from the world after giving birth.

So I guess

that you don't have a child.

All I have is work.

-Thanks. -Here.

When did you come to this company?

All of our old colleagues

have changed their jobs.

Some got into the new media industry and are now working on WeChat official accounts.

Wu Shan

found me

six years ago.

We say our job is to promote and publicize movies and shows.

But it's actually just marketing. We work like dogs.

If the movie does well at the box office,

our work will be seen as just a bonus.

But if it doesn't,

we'll be the ones who take the responsibility.

Everybody blames the failure on you.

But the sense of fulfilment you receive by promoting a movie

is different from

which by selling a cup of coffee.

I hope you can find a sense of self-worth from the job.

You're a business partner.

So you hired me, right?

Yes, I saw your resume.

Actually, Ms Wu doesn't like me.

Sorry to put you in such a difficult position.

I thought I joined this company

because I was qualified.

You don't have to worry about it.

We used to be good partners in the news office.

I know what you're capable of.

Wu Shan is only worried about

how will you balance

your family and work.

How will I balance my family and work.

I've taken interviews of several companies recently.

Every one of them

asked me this question.

Everyone believes that

if a woman becomes a mother,

she'll not be trustworthy at work.

My previous working experience becomes meaningless.

What I need now

is not to balance my family and work.

I need fairness.

Fairness?

I haven't heard of this word for a long time.

What do you think is fairness?

Fairness is

that I can be treated the same as all other colleagues.

No one says that

because Fang Yuan

is the mother of two children,

we don't give her important work.

No one says that I don't care about work anyway.

Fairness is

that even if I was not your former colleague,

I could still be hired

by this company.

Then prove it to them.

I will.

I will.

Fang Yuan, I trust you.

Mr Xu.

It's great that

I can have a look at the case report.

Ms Wu said

that we can't take these out.

You're already part of us.

It doesn't matter.

I'll try to finish it tonight

and bring it back tomorrow.

Okay.

Do you still live there?

I'm going to play basketball in the north.

Let me give you a ride.

Thank you, but I'm good.

You're still living an interesting life

even after all these years.

What else can I do except from playing?

I'm single anyway.

You...

can call me Xu Yang when we're not in the company.

Mr Xu

sounds weird.

I have to call you Mr Xu in the company.

Mr Xu.

You'll get used to it.

Be careful. You've got too many to hold.

Too many things.

Let me help.

Hi, it's been a long time.

Why are you here?

This is my company.

I'm here to pick up my wife.

I have to go.

See you tomorrow, Mr Xu.

Actually, I wanted to call you

this afternoon.

But I never got a chance because I was in a meeting.

Why are you walking so fast?

Why didn't you tell me

that this is Xu Yang's company?

I didn't know before I came here.

And I was just told that he is a business partner.

You got this job because of him, right?

Yes.

We've been colleagues for so many years.

We know each other's abilities.

If I were him,

I would give my colleague the chance as well.

Besides,

I really...

I didn't know that he was the partner

before I came.

Fang Yuan, have you forgotten

how he embarrassed us

at the wedding?

I almost fought with him.

If people know that

you're working in his company,

how will they think of me?

So you're afraid of losing face?

Do we still have any face?

It's been years.

You've accepted his apology.

After we got married,

I've still been his colleague in the newspaper office

and we've maintained a normal relationship.

You trusted me.

Now, we've been married for ten years.

Shouldn't we trust each other more?

Besides,

I chose to work instead of staying at home.

All choices I made

are for our family.

You know that.

It's my fault.

I have to make money soon.

Anyway,

with your ability, you could have found a better job.

Why do you have to work for him?

What can I do now?

They won't believe

that you're willing to work

or you can keep up.

All right.

Let's go home.

Come on.

Granny.

Granny, come and help me.

What's wrong?

You're cheating.

How can you ask for help?

-Xiaoxiao's asking for help. -Where should I go?

Which color?

Red.

Let me see.

Qi Tao, stay at home tonight.

I've recovered.

I'll sleep with Xiaoxiao tonight.

I'll sleep with dad.

Xiaoxiao,

what did I tell you?

Granny doesn't sleep well.

You'll sleep with me tonight.

Give your bed to Granny.

Listen to mom.

Open your mouth.

Mom, I'm working on a project

in the west recently.

I have to get up early every day.

It's more convenient to stay in a hotel.

After I finish my work,

I'll solve the house issue.

It's okay. Just focus on your work.

Where should we go?

This way.

Mom, you play with Xiaoxiao.

I'll go help her.

Take a look.

This. Well...

This is yours.

It's mine.

It's mine. It's yours.

I'll listen to you.

After mom leaves,

take Xiaoxiao and go back to Shenzhen with me.

Have one.

It's so sweet.

Do you need any help?

You should go.

OK.

Is Granny great?

Yes.

Better than daddy?

Yes.

Rachel Liu.

Is that you?

It's you, right?

The Gagosian Gallery in France is asking me

if I could take

a lady named Rachel Liu together?

When did I agree?

Ms Lu,

I didn't send an email to Paris.

Who else then?

Mr Xu asked for my passport number yesterday.

So you just did what he asked?

Leave.

Ms. Lu, have some water.

Being angry is not good for the baby.

Don't talk about the baby.

Thanks a lot!

Can you buy me a cup of yogurt?

Sure, Ms Lu.

Xu.

Lulu.

What's wrong with you?

Paris sent me an email,

asking for Rachel Liu.

So kind of you.

Well,

I was just worried about your health.

In order not to bring any burden to our gallery,

I'll pay for Rachel's trip, okay?

It's not about money.

It's about the rules.

There are only few people

in our gallery.

We don't need many rules.

What do you mean?

My bad. My bad. I...

No, no, no.

My apologies.

But, Lulu,

Rachel must go this time.

Look,

if I go with you, a pregnant woman,

to Paris, where I've never been,

it'll be a mess.

What do you think?

Okay, but I'm telling you,

even if Rachel goes,

she'll be my assistant and she'll have to listen to me.

As for the fee...

since you said so,

then you'll pay.

But you can't tell her.

Fine. Fine.

She's yours. I'll pay.

Is that what you mean?

Yes.

Lulu.

First, it's all my fault.

I won't make decisions for you anymore.

I respect your opinions.

Second,

I want to be responsible for the baby together with you.

Please let me be on your side.

Third, I like you.

I don't have a girlfriend in the company.

Fourth, I'm across the street.

That's more like a good boy.

Have you watched the movie

we talked about yesterday?

Yes.

I think...

Boss Shan.

-Boss Shan. -Ms Wu.

Who cleaned it?

I did.

Did I allow you to do it?

Give me the documents of the photoshoot in 2017.

Sure.

It's all here.

Fang Yuan, you are so good at this.

You should have taken an administrative position.

Rachel,

how many years has Xu cooperated with us?

Six years.

We started the cooperation in 2012.

When Xu just signed me as the agent,

his paintings were only sold less than 100 thousand each.

Now the business is big.

Collectors have to line up to buy the paintings.

The exhibition in Paris will start next week.

I'm the one who helped him.

I think

you're smart.

It won't take me five years.

Three years maybe?

Before I hold an exhibition for you in Paris.

Thank you for giving me this chance.

I really want to work with you.

Ms Jin.

Ms Jin, what a coincidence.

Huang.

Who are you meeting today?

Congratulations, Ms Jin.

I heard you're having another baby.

You work so hard.

Still talking about business?

She's a mother now.

Congratulations.

Sorry, I didn't know.

I shouldn't have smoked.

It's okay.

Listen,

don't drag Ms Jin out to smoke and drink.

Ms Jin, take care of yourself.

Huang signed a bunch of kids who had just graduated.

It's a shame that he hasn't made any profit.

But it's different this time.

I think you'll get the gold.

Okay, enjoy your meal.

See you.

Xu, are you crazy?

Everybody knows about my pregnancy because of you.

Are you insane?

Did you tell Huang?

I didn't tell anyone. I'm innocent.

Innocent?

Who else could it be?

I'm begging you.

Don't spread it anymore, okay?

God.

We'll take Bai's proposal as the main direction for now.

Martin's as a backup plan.

But we have to make it better.

It can't be ordinary.

We'll have a meeting with Party A next Tuesday.

There are only five days left.

We must come up with a complete plan

to gain Party A's favor, okay?

Bai, you'll take charge of this project.

Okay.

Mr Wu, what do you think about my plan?

What I didn't mention is useless.

I don't know if my plan is really that bad

or it's just people tend to ignore newcomers.

But what I clearly know is that

before I have a say,

I must take actions first.

I have an idea.

This movie is about mothers' difficulties.

It's about two girls, who are best friends

and are mothers at the same time.

After the premiere,

I interviewed some viewers.

Their discussions were mainly about

social topics around women.

If we focus more on advertising women and realism,

there must be less promotion of suspense.

If we focus on the suspenseful crimes,

I'm afraid that this project

will not be that unique.

After all, there has never been a commercial movie

with two full-time moms as the main characters

in the market.

But do full-time moms watch movies?

Of course they do!

I did the inquiry in the cinema.

It's not necessary.

Full-time moms

are never mainstream viewers.

Indeed they are not

-main stream viewers, but... -Sisi,

have you looked for the information I asked you to find?

All come to the meeting room.

Fang Yuan, get the coffee ready.

OK.

Another meeting?

♫Little dragonflies fly along the playground♫

♫Newsstands sell summer light and shadow♫

♫Sunshine, shaved ice, cola bottle♫

Stop.

One more time.

♫Little dragonflies fly along the playground♫

Again.

♫Newsstands♫

♫Little dragonflies fly along the playground♫

Again.

Stop. Stop.

Reboot the key.

One more time.

♫Little dragonflies fly along the playground♫

♫Newsstands sell summer light and shadow♫

Sing it again.

Stop it! I can't do it anymore.

Look at you.

Sorry to be rude,

but what are you doing?

Are you trying to

torture my artist?

I'm the music producer.

This is my studio.

I'm the boss here.

What do you mean?

When you signed the contract...

Calm down. It's okay.

You should be nice.

She's a girl after all.

Listen to it.

Can't you hear that she didn't sing in tune?

What do you want?

All you want is to make more money

and let your wife live a good life.

Cai,

I can't say this is good when it's not.

I'm a professional musician.

You need to be flexible.

Change a way.

You're still professional.

You won't lose anything.

We just want to live a good life.

To make money.

It's okay.

Alright.

It's okay. Come on.

It's good.

Girl, move aside.

Don't disturb her.

Wang Man. It was good.

Let's try it again.

Miss Wang Man,

your voice is really nice.

Do you feel tired?

Need some water?

Really?

It was really good.

Actually, most singers

don't sing in tune from time to time.

Let's improve it together.

You will be perfect.

OK?

Drink some water. Let's relax.

Initial speculation,

Mr. Gu has several transfers

that are lower than the market price.

And the money went to

some unknown accounts.

They could be his lovers'.

Not just one lover.

Many of Gu's companies

were registered in Guangdong province.

Let's make a plan.

We have to check them one by one.

Are you okay with going on a business trip?

Yes, I'll be there anytime.

I promise I won't fail.

Buying a house really makes you productive.

Okay, then I'm leaving, Director.

Sure.

Wait for me.

Brother.

Liang.

Are you writing the script?

Yes.

What are you writing?

Is it the movie you mentioned last time?

Yes, I'm making some changes.

I was looking for you.

After you finish this movie script,

would you like to join

the web series that I'm working on?

You're working on web series now?

Life is hard.

I won't consider web series at the moment.

My movie will be filmed soon.

Congratulations.

I'll leave you to it.

See you.

Talk later.

Okay, I got it.

Thank you, Wang.

Darling,

I don't know what to say.

This film

has neither any logic,

nor any humanism.

Why did the investors ask me

to watch it carefully?

We should always listen to the investors,

or our effort is meaningless. Right? Honey.

Don't care about what the investors want you to see.

You can give a better version, right?

You heard the phone call just now.

The couple paid the deposit.

Really?

Yes. We have to sell the house.

Okay.

-How fast. -No problem, my friend.

Thank you.

OK. OK.

Feng, Zhu,

listen,

the agent just called me.

The landlord of the house I like

will be back next month.

In terms of the price,

the landlord gave you

a discount.

What do you think?

How about you two discuss first?

I have to go through the film.

OK. We won't disturb you.

Zhu, come here.

Let's talk.

Fang Yuan,

your package.

My package?

What did you buy? It's so heavy.

[Peak Culture Media]

I didn't buy anything.

You're early today.

Hey!

You little bad girl.

Take a photo.

Here, Xiaoxiao.

-Eat some orange. -This is awesome.

Qi Tao is such a smart man.

I told him my shoulders hurt,

so he booked a hot spring hotel for me.

My shoulders

really hurt.

It's been a long time.

China is great.

There are so many things for me to enjoy.

I've found the checkers.

Let's start. Come on.

Qi Tao.

Mom.

Let's come here again on Christmas.

Xiaoxiao, is it good?

Yes!

Mom, I'm glad you like it.

Tell me anytime when you want to come.

I'll make the arrangement.

Mom, Xiaoxiao's school doesn't have a Christmas vacation.

We don't have time to come.

Besides, you've been back for so long.

Why don't you go back and accompany Uncle Zhao?

Right, I forgot about Uncle Zhao.

Mom, if you want to go back,

just tell me. I'll book a ticket for you.

Mumu,

I have something to tell you.

I'm not going back in a short time.

Why?

What about your green card?

Don't you have to stay there for enough time?

It's so boring to stay in another country.

Yes, I wanted to come back to see you,

and go back very soon.

But now,

I can see Xiaoxiao every day.

I really don't want to go.

You can't do this.

You always do whatever you want.

Let's talk about it after the Chinese New Year.

Xiaoxiao,

I'll play with you later, okay?

Sure.

We first set it as a suspense film.

Then we designed a detailed marketing plan

for viewers of suspense movies.

For example, the Spanish movie The Invisible Guest

played a game of guessing the truth

with the audience.

And it achieved a box office sensation.

Only suspense movies?

The maximum box office revenue of a suspense film

is only 200 to 300 million maximum.

I want it to trigger more discussions,

and to elicit empathy.

Yes, apart from the suspense line,

the two actresses

have a lot of fans.

Fans love to see them attending events together like a couple.

Negative.

Party A just replied

that the artist teams don't want this.

But they've already

been discussed as a good couple online.

Don't you understand?

Well,

we also designed

a trending topic.

For example, do you mind

if your best friend lives a better life than you do?

I think it might be super hot.

Is this the result of your discussion?

I've told you again and again that we need to work hard.

It can't be ordinary.

This topic you gave me is a cliche.

Don't you have anything new?

Boss Shan, I have another plan.

We haven't used it before.

It can be risky.

The difficulty of being a mother.

The movie is about a pair of best friends.

They're also two mothers.

And I found that

there isn't any commercial movie

in the market

that talks about full-time moms.

We can use this as a breakthrough

to attract different kinds of audience.

Women plus crimes.

We put women first.

It could remind the audience of an Indian movie called Mom.

Do you think this plan will work?

Send this proposal to me.

Make it deep and unique.

Sure.

Help me with it later.

I just revised your plan

and sent it to Boss Shan.

Your idea was interesting,

but it wasn't logical

or convincing.

You're right.

I'm not as experienced as you.

Especially

the experience of copying others' ideas.

What do you mean?

I was helping you.

I know. Such a good lesson.

Quickly go through all channels where we do the advertising.

Contact people in charge.

I've already contacted them.

These are the works from Mr Xu

our gallery sells.

We're going to Paris for an exhibition soon.

His work

is full of imagination and poetry.

This one.

It took him years to complete it.

I think it's the best of all his works.

There's one more book.

Let me take it for you.

Okay.

Okay, thank you.

You're welcome.

Ms Lu.

Let's go to the hospital.

Blood.

What? Threatened abortion?

It's possible.

The fetal heart and the bud are growing well.

But the fetus is small.

Each index is two weeks less

than which it should be now.

Didn't you say it would be safe after 12 weeks?

Yes, we were told that the baby would be all fine after three months.

Everyone's condition is different.

The position of your placenta is low.

It can compress the abdomen.

It's better to stay in bed more often.

How could this happen?

Didn't you say that everything would be fine

after 12 weeks?

What should I do?

I have an art exhibition in Paris.

I...

Didn't I make myself clear?

You have symptoms of threatened abortion.

And you still want to take a long flight?

Do you want your baby or not?

I'm sending you back home.

It's okay.

I want to stay alone.

Lulu,

I'll go to Paris with you.

Let's buy the first class ticket and lie down on the seat.

It's okay.

You'll be fine.

I'm always here.

A food in the sea.

Food.

Food. Sea snail?

No, but close.

It also has the word sea in its Chinese name.

Starfish?

No, but close.

-Seal? Sea lion? -No.

-Sea... -It's a...

-Xiaoxiao. -Shell!

Are you going to do your homework?

Let me play another round.

No, two rounds.

Just two rounds, okay?

Just two.

Deal. The last two rounds.

Two rounds.

Okay!

Roast pork?

No.

Shumai?

Yes.

Wait a minute.

Somebody calls you.

Hello?

Hello.

Are you Ms. Ding Mumu?

The emergency contact of Ma Chunyan.

Two words. It's round.

Yes, it's me.

This is the Bank Card Center.

Ma Chunyan has owed

189,100 yuan.

We are now

not able to contact Ma Chunyan,

so we have to contact you.

I'm sorry.

Can you please repeat it again? How much does she owe?

189,100 yuan.

Okay, I got it.

Thank you.

Do you know who called me just now?

Who?

The bank.

How did they find you?

How did you owe so much money?

I was scammed.
