Episode 14

Hello, Core Robot Department.

Then you tell me what to do!

I've already cancelled all holidays

and found all the people I can.

Do you know, we've received four times

the highest amount of calls we've ever had in a single day

and we simply can't handle it.

Fine, fine.

Let's do this for now, I'm very busy.

Why aren't you answering the phone?

Is there any point?

In one night all kinds of supernatural beings are calling me,

am I Sun Wukong?

I really don't get it.

If something goes wrong with a Core Robot,

you shut it down, log out, and stop using it!

What use is calling me to complain?

Completely bizarre, right?

What did you need?

A reporter just called.

They said all the defective machines

are from Chengshi Electronics.

They called to find out more on the situation.

What am I supposed to say?

What to say, say the truth.

Go, go.

Chengshi Electronics

has not issued a statement at this time.

There must be odd things happening

inside Chenghi Electronics.

Could it connected to his plan to open the singularity?

Where are you going?

I'm going to Chengshi Electronics to take a look.

See if there's a chance to get in and find more clues.

It's too dangerous Li Yao.

What if you meet the Professor?

If we meet we meet.

He's the one that should be scared.

Then I'll go with you.

No need.

Stay here where it's safe.

When did this happen?

Where are Chengshi's people? Do they not care?

They keep claiming

that consumers are upgrading their robot systems on their own.

They won't take responsibility.

Professor Cheng,

hundreds of cases appeared today of Core Robots malfunctioning

that are limited to your company's products.

What do you think of these incidents?

Who said there were malfunctions in only our machines?

In my opinion

it's too hasty to draw such a conclusion now.

The Core Robot Department already confirmed to us

that all the faulty machines

were produced by your company.

It must be the latest software upgrade.

But as far as we know

every robot from your company has been upgraded

which means every Core Robot is a security risk.

even in the products you are about to launch.

No.

Only some products are having compatibility issues.

We're working on a patch, I believe this will be fixed very soon.

Also

I can confidently say that the majority of our products

have no issues at all. People can be reassured.

So in fact there is no problem for the time being.

Within 24 hours of the Chengshi Electronics

Core Robots malfunctioning, their stock prices fell sharply.

At the same time, Wansheng Space and Time said

their products have no such faults.

Fei Dong.

I hope that before you make future video calls

you'll book with my secretary first

instead of giving me such a shock.

You know

my heart isn't so good.

Stop talking nonsense.

Do you know the chaos going on out there right now?

All sellers are coming to return their products.

You must find a solution immediately.

Fine.

I'll make a plan as soon as possible.

Cheng Shi Guang.

Returns are not important.

What's important is that the development of new products

requires a huge investment of new funds.

If the media is allowed to labour on this,

all our investors will leave!

No problem.

What has actually happened?

Why did everything break overnight?

Is it a matter of software upgrade as you said to the media?

Indeed.

It was indeed a software upgrade.

This is just a small issue Fei Dong.

Don't worry, it will be solved.

I'm very busy right now.

Goodbye.

From now on...

I won't take any calls.

No interviews, no meetings with anyone.

Including Fei Dong.

Understood.

Professor Cheng.

Do you really think the malfunctions

are caused by a faulty upgrade?

No!

It's not the result of a software upgrade at all!

No no!

I have no idea what happened,

I don't know what 's going on!

As soon as possible...

hurry and find those Core Robots.

Remember,

what the media says...

No need to worry about it.

Okay.

I'm too tired.

I'm going out for a walk.

To relax my heart.

Sorry.

For scaring you.

Mum.

Help me find the roof.

Roof, I'll take a look.

Roof.

This is...

Should be like this.

No.

Mum you made a mistake.

I didn't.

This is what it says on this picture.

Nevermind, I'll do it myself.

Found it!

Oh it's this.

What did you say?

What's happened?

Qiao You.

Go and play with Fei Fei for a bit, go on.

It's fine, what were you saying?

What?

Core Robots are breaking?

I didn't watch the news, I didn't know.

I'll take a look online.

Sister,

do you know when dad can come home?

Why?

Dad used to go with me to class,

do handicrafts and play with me.

Mum's too clumsy!

During handicrafts she came with me to make a duck

but it looked like a horse and all the kids laughed at me.

Fei Fei.

You can't say that to mum, if she hears it she'll be sad.

Mums works very hard.

She just...

isn't very good at these kind of things.

I know,

I just want to ask when dad is coming home.

Okay Fei Fei.

I'll play toys with you.

I'm really not a decent mother.

Enjoy.

Thanks. Thank you.

You're welcome.

Miss.

Hello. Hello.

I'm new.

I'd like to know where Professor Cheng's office is.

I have a report here to give him.

Can you tell me how to get there?

The Professor is usually in the lab,

you could look for him there.

But it looks like he's gone to lunch now.

You could come back this later,

or give them to his secretary.

No need.

It's rare to get to meet the boss,

how can I miss this opportunity?

Thank you.

You can take the elevator to the fifth floor.

Thanks. You're welcome.

Confirming identity.

Name.

Greetings, do you have an appointment?

Greetings Mr Li.

To enter the laboratory please remove unauthorised devices.

Xiao Ma.

I found some files.

Professor Cheng,

he input some consciousness programs

from the experimental stages into the Core Robots.

That's why the malfunctions have happened.

I'll send you the file now, check it over carefully.

[A country overseas]

It's here?

Yeah.

But I have't fully accepted the work yet.

If you don't want me to take the photos

I can turn down the job.

Don't.

We're here already. Why not make a profit?

Fine then.

Wait outside, I'll be back when I'm done.

No.

I'm going with you.

Trust me, I won't cause you any trouble.

Okay?

Really?

Hey man.

Long time no see.

You're finally here.

Long time no see.

Who's this?

Who?

New girlfriend?

Can you give me a rough idea how you want this shot?

Simple, when the time comes go in and take real shots.

Make them real, and powerful.

I'll leave it to you.

I'll find you the best location amongst the audience.

Once you're inside, don't move around.

Okay?

The security here is very strict.

Not just anyone can get in,

you must be brought by someone. Okay, let's go.

Don't get me into trouble.

This is a place that most people don't know about.

So we must keep a low profile.

Brother, we're all allowed.

Please show your invitation code.

I am a staff member here, your boss asked me to come.

You should have this information.

Fine fine, look at my face.

Please show your invitation code.

This way.

You two have a seat.

I'm off, okay.

Should we just go?

No, I want to watch for a while.

Then you're okay?

Undecided.

When the time comes, I'll sort the information.

Professor Cheng.

Good afternoon Professor Cheng.

Mr Li is working overtime.

Mr Li?

Professor Cheng.

Please sign this document.

Thank you.

You're Mr Li.

No.

You're Li Yao.

I didn't expect we'd meet so soon.

I remember when I last saw you

you were still a baby

in Bi Jun's arms, always crying.

You don't speak my mother's name.

Fine,

than you tell me,

are you actually a person or a ghost?

Why do you come back to life again and again?

What does this have to do with you?

You murderer.

Murderer?

Who did I kill?

The day my dad died,

weren't you at the lakehouse?

My young friend, you must be mistaken.

I'm telling you,

although I've destroyed countless Core Robots,

I have never harmed a human being.

But to be honest,

I'm very interested in you now.

Perhaps

you're the latest model of Core Robot.

No!

None of this is important.

I'm telling you, after I open the singularity

I will have plenty of time to investigate you.

Have you ever considered

what happens after the singularity?

For the sake of money and because you can.

Have you ever thought about the state of the world?

What's more

I won't allow you to harm my family to get to your goal!

My young friend.

You are wrong.

This world won't be chaotic

but will enter a new, more civilised stage.

At this time

I will surely become the founder of a new era!

I will firmly control the conscious Core Robot's behaviour

to let them serve humanity better and

will never make anything harmful to human beings.

If they become conscious,

they can control themselves

why would they let you control them?

Security!

Security system have been activated,

security guards will attend immediately.

Don't run!

There! There!

Stop, stop! Don't run!

Stop!

Stop! Catch him!

You two, over there.

Yes. Come with me.

An Yi what are you doing?

I am making watermelon milk for Fei Fei.

She will drink it later.

Qiao You, would you also like a cup?

Don't you remember what happened yesterday?

Qiao You, apologies,

I do not know what you mean.

Daddy!

Daddy!

Fei Fei!

Daddy.

Fei Fei.

Fei Fei what's wrong?

I had a dream about dad, I really miss dad.

Okay okay now, don't cry, don't cry.

Don't cry.

Where did dad go?

When will he come back?

I've never had so long without seeing him.

Dad,

might not be able to come back for a while.

But it's okay!

You've got me, and your brother and mum here with you.

I want dad, doesn't dad want us anymore?

Okay, don't cry.

Don't cry.

Fei Fei.

Your watermelon milkshake.

I don't want watermelon milk I want daddy!

Fei Fei.

Touch your ears, are they hot?

If they are hot, it means your dad misses you.

Hot, dad misses me too.

Fei Fei.

Your dad is so busy,

so there's no way he can be by your side.

But that doesn't mean he doesn't miss you,

or love you.

We can be separated from our families for lots of reasons.

But I believe that

as long as you keep the other person in your heart

no matter how far the distance

we will feel as if we're together.

Do you have a family? Do you miss them?

As long as he is truly missed,

he will definitely be seen.

An Yi.

Greetings Qiao You.

Do you need something?

Come with me.

To where?

I'm taking you to meet someone.

Are you okay?

I'm fine, don't worry.

Let's go now.

What's up?

You want to meet me at the school?

Now? Okay, no problem.

Okay.

Let's go.

Okay,

the next match will start in no time.

The fighter about to step on the stage is our favourite one.

He never goes easy, he is ferocious simply

because that's how he's programmed.

So, let's welcome him with applause. Let's welcome

Wide Mouth!

In a moment there will be a Core Robot,

you need to focus on him.

Okay.

Okay.

His opponent

is very formidable.

Yesterday he beat Ghost,

who didn't lose once, before that.

He comes here for honour and more victories.

Do any of you dare bet on his defeat?

Anyone?

I mean anyone!

Okay.

Let's welcome this one,

Starving Wolf!

This one's good.

He used to be a service robot.

I'm telling you,

be very sure before you lay a bet,

or you'll lose your underpants.

This is going to be the a big fight.

On my left, is Starving Wolf!

On my right is Wide Mouth.

Who will be the better one?

Let's wait and see, yeah!

This time, I bet on you losing.

Step aside!

Move!

Ye Kun!

Ye Kun!

Open it Ye Kun!

Run!

Ye Kun!

Get on quick!

I'll make you run!

A good dog doesn't block the road you know!

I'll make you run!

Block my way!

Run.

Half an hour ago in a country in South Asia

a woman appears at a Core Robot fighting club

and caused chaos.

Witnesses said that the woman was very aggressive

and used the competition equipment to fight

and take a Core Robot away.

This is the first violent

incident caused by human sympathy for Core Robots.

The identity of the woman

causing the violence is unknown.

The Core Robot that was taken away

has already been recovered by the club.

What's wrong An Yi?

Nothing, apologies Qiao You.

Li Yao.

This girl, why has she asked to meet?

Don't know.

I hope Jiang Li isn't in trouble.

You came.

What did you need me for?

Is Jiang Li in trouble?

Come with me.

There's no-one here, you can talk.

About what?

Who are you, who is Jiang Li?

What is actually going on with you?

You called me, just to ask this?

Yeah.

Because only by knowing this

will I know if my decision is right.

What decision?

You answer first.

Do you really want to know?

What are you doing?

Don't you want to know the answer?

When you've seen you'll understand.

This... this is a charging port.

Yeah.

You're a Core Robot?

I'm not.

Then, you're...

To be precise,

I'm half human, half Core Robot.

Half human half Core Robot?

Hang on, I am a bit confused.

What is actually going on?

Never mind.

I can show you.

Xiao Ma.

They should have stopped chasing.

Thank you, you saved me again.

It's fine, I'm used to it.

I... need to go.

My family is in trouble, I have to help him.

Go together?

I have my own family, they'll help me.

I have to go.

Okay then.

I'll wait for you to call when you're finished.

See you.

Si Jia.

Next week is my birthday,

if you're willing to...

I mean, if it's okay with you,

I'd like to introduce you to my family.

This...

next week I don't know if I can.

I'll give you a call.

See you.

See you.

This is all my memories.

This is Li Jianwei.

Are you Li Jianwei's son?

Yes.

I'm Li Yao.

To me!

Come on, come on!

The only thing the world knows

about my dad is he the father of robots,

creator of Core Robots.

But his greatness goes far beyond that.

Before Core Robots came out

he'd already created the world's first conscious Core Robot.

Jiang Li.

That's who you call An Yi.

She's called Jiang Li.

Hello.

I'm Jiang Li.
