Do you know Mr. A?

5
00:01:53,030 --> 00:01:54,150
Who's that?

6
00:01:54,490 --> 00:01:56,410
Forget what's to be forgotten.

7
00:01:57,580 --> 00:01:58,870
I won't.

8
00:02:01,910 --> 00:02:04,290
I'll remember what's to be remembered

Betraying friends for a lover,

12

no matter where you go, is unforgivable.

13
00:02:25,980 --> 00:02:29,650
I didn't hear anything,

14
00:02:31,570 --> 00:02:34,860
Fifteen million to bet on a number.

17

<i>together with its associate companies,
it now owned 16% of Yingzhou's shares.</i>

161
00:11:43,870 --> 00:11:45,620
<i>That's illegal behaviour.</i>

162
00:11:45,620 --> 00:11:52,500
Yingzhou will fight back against
this attempt at a hostile takeover.

163
00:11:52,590 --> 00:11:54,920
<i>Yingzhou's price rose higher and higher.</i>

164
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:00,140
We can't allow a Shanghainese company
to be taken over by the Shenzhen Gang.

165
00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:01,140
What?

166
00:12:01,140 --> 00:12:03,600
-Then Yingzhou becomes a Shenzhen company?
-What is happening?

167
00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:05,430
I'm a long-time shareholder.

168
00:12:05,430 --> 00:12:08,020
I lined up in 1985 to buy
shares of Yingzhou.

169
00:12:08,020 --> 00:12:10,060
I held those shares ever since.

170
00:12:10,060 --> 00:12:11,650
I won't give them up.

171
00:12:11,650 --> 00:12:12,400
Right.

172
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,020
We Shanghainese will fight for our pride.

173
00:12:15,070 --> 00:12:15,980
Protect Yingzhou.

174
00:12:16,030 --> 00:12:19,400
Protect Yingzhou!

175
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:20,820
Let's go!

176
00:12:21,070 --> 00:12:24,580
<i>601's price continued rising,
reaching ¥21.80.</i>

177
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,040
<i>In another announcement,</i>

178
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,290
<i>Yingzhou asserted that its
controlling stake remained unchanged.</i>

179
00:12:30,500 --> 00:12:35,130
<i>and committed to using every measure
to maintain its position.</i>

180
00:12:36,300 --> 00:12:39,380
<i>Then every listed company in Shanghai,
in a joint announcement,</i>

181
00:12:39,550 --> 00:12:42,050
<i>vouched support for Yingzhou.</i>

182
00:12:42,140 --> 00:12:46,100
<i>On the news,
Yingzhou's price reached ¥25.</i>

183
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,480
Watch the trading volumes.
See if any new capital enters.

184
00:12:52,900 --> 00:12:56,480
We've made a huge push,
but things are still explosive.

185
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,820
We'll escalate step-by-step.

186
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:01,530
Remember...

187
00:13:01,780 --> 00:13:04,950
we can only get out during a surge. ga surge.

188
00:13:05,030 --> 00:13:06,450
Understood.

189
00:13:07,450 --> 00:13:08,870
Mr. Qiang has spoken.

190
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,420
Today we focus on selling.
Prop up the price while we sell.

191
00:13:12,420 --> 00:13:14,750
-Create the illusion.
-Got it!

192
00:13:16,750 --> 00:13:18,760
Know what an anti-takeover measure is?然有人都

193
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,170
It's actually a chance to get rich.

194
00:13:21,340 --> 00:13:23,760
Remember Kowloon Wharf?

195
00:13:24,050 --> 00:13:25,390
¥50 a share.

196
00:13:25,470 --> 00:13:27,810
Li Ka-shing and Pao Yue-kong
worked together.

197
00:13:27,890 --> 00:13:31,350
The Brits initiated anti-takeover measures
and the price soared to ¥150.

198
00:13:31,350 --> 00:13:32,680
¥150?

199
00:13:32,690 --> 00:13:34,770
Another chance is coming.

200
00:13:35,810 --> 00:13:38,480
601 is going to surge!

201
00:13:38,570 --> 00:13:42,610
<i>The news of anti-takeover
ignited Shanghai's passion for stocks.</i>

202
00:13:44,530 --> 00:13:48,200
<i>601 opened high and rose
at an unstoppable pace.</i>

203
00:13:48,330 --> 00:13:50,540
<i>The trading volume surged too.</i>

204
00:13:50,660 --> 00:13:52,700
<i>Major traders overdrew funds,</i>

205
00:13:52,870 --> 00:13:56,170
<i>and dumped every other stock
to buy more Yingzhou.</i>

206
00:13:56,340 --> 00:14:01,210
<i>As 601 rose, its trading volume
took up 60% of the market.</i>

207
00:14:01,300 --> 00:14:06,140
<i>Never before had a single stock soared
so far above others on the SSE.</i>

208
00:14:39,170 --> 00:14:40,750
Don't just stand here waiting.

209
00:14:40,750 --> 00:14:42,380
We can't split the cash here.

210
00:14:48,180 --> 00:14:50,350
Is this a restaurant or a bank?

211
00:14:50,350 --> 00:14:52,100
Our boss hasn't even paid us.

212
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:53,810
Only the rich get richer.

213
00:14:53,810 --> 00:14:56,640
All those bags of cash,
and the cops do nothing?

214
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,980
I think the cops did come.
I guess there's no wrong doing then.

215
00:15:00,060 --> 00:15:02,520
I think it's legal.

216
00:15:02,650 --> 00:15:03,980
Of course it is.

217
00:15:04,070 --> 00:15:07,360
Anyone can earn money trading stocks.

218
00:15:09,370 --> 00:15:10,700
Lucy.

219
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,240
Aren't you close with Min Min
over at The Grand Lisbon?

220
00:15:14,330 --> 00:15:15,960
Do you trade?

221
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:20,210
-You can bring us along.
-Let's trade together.

222
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,090
I hate losing.

223
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:24,760
I don't trade.

224
00:15:26,590 --> 00:15:27,930
Excuse me, Ms. Pan. Table for 5.

225
00:15:28,010 --> 00:15:29,840
5 people, right?
I'll merge a table for you.

226
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,430
Come, follow me.

227
00:15:34,180 --> 00:15:37,140
You're third on the waiting list.

228
00:15:37,980 --> 00:15:38,810
Ah Kang.

229
00:15:38,900 --> 00:15:41,100
-Madame.
-You know the drill.Go ask.

230
00:15:41,110 --> 00:15:42,480
Are they our guests?

231
00:15:42,570 --> 00:15:44,230
If not, park somewhere else.

232
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,030
We can't be lax during Friday lunchtime.

233
00:15:47,110 --> 00:15:48,490
Don't stare. Go!

234
00:15:48,700 --> 00:15:51,660
-Sorry, guests only.
-Oh, come on.

235
00:15:52,620 --> 00:15:53,240
Madame.

236
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:54,740
The Grand Lisbon's there. Can't I park?

237
00:15:54,830 --> 00:15:56,410
Sorry.

238
00:15:56,500 --> 00:15:59,080
If you park here,
where will my guests park?

239
00:15:59,170 --> 00:16:01,040
I'll pay you.

240
00:16:01,130 --> 00:16:04,250
Look, you have more spots
than you do guests.

241
00:16:04,340 --> 00:16:05,550
Says who?!

242
00:16:05,630 --> 00:16:06,840
There are rules.

243
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,220
You want to eat there? Then park there.

244
00:16:09,300 --> 00:16:12,800
-Or go park in an alley somewhere!
-What's with you today?

245
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,220
Sir, I'm sorry. Really sorry.

246
00:16:15,310 --> 00:16:17,930
-You're ridiculous.
-Look who's talking!

247
00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:24,020
Madame, call from Mr. Jin.

248
00:16:26,570 --> 00:16:29,650
Tell him he's not getting a cent!

249
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,200
He can find himself a sugar mommy
to take care of him.

250
00:16:38,830 --> 00:16:40,660
I quite like this color.

251
00:16:40,750 --> 00:16:43,250
Madame, I bought a car.

252
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,550
The color suits you.

253
00:16:46,630 --> 00:16:48,090
Let's take a photo together.

254
00:16:48,170 --> 00:16:48,920
Sure.

255
00:16:49,010 --> 00:16:50,510
Lucy has a camera.

256
00:16:50,510 --> 00:16:53,090
Let's take a photo together.
Come take a group photo.

257
00:16:53,100 --> 00:16:55,720
Come, smile. Look happier.

258
00:16:55,810 --> 00:16:57,260
Come.

259
00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:59,770
Get closer.

260
00:16:59,770 --> 00:17:01,270
Don't block the car.

261
00:17:13,780 --> 00:17:15,870
Three, two, one.

262
00:17:15,950 --> 00:17:17,620
Say cheese.

263
00:17:17,870 --> 00:17:20,120
Cheese!

264
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,340
I'm treating everyone today.
Be my guests.

265
00:17:31,340 --> 00:17:32,880
-Sure.
-Thank you then.

266
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,140
Min Min, with how great you're doing,
you should let us trade stocks with you!

267
00:17:36,140 --> 00:17:37,470
Bring us along!

268
00:17:37,470 --> 00:17:40,020
She can, but you'll have to pay!

269
00:17:40,100 --> 00:17:41,350
-We have money.
-We'll pay.

270
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,940
She's kidding, I'm just a dabbler.

271
00:17:44,020 --> 00:17:45,190
Come on!

272
00:17:45,270 --> 00:17:47,230
Why not bring them on and do it together?

273
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:48,900
Just charge a fee.

274
00:17:49,190 --> 00:17:54,070
Doing this with friends is fine.
But not strangers.

275
00:17:54,820 --> 00:17:57,080
Things can go very wrong.

276
00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:01,120
Prices soar, and life is good.
Prices crash, and it's suicide time.

277
00:18:01,830 --> 00:18:03,410
Car's here. Let's go.

278
00:18:12,260 --> 00:18:13,670
Bye-bye!

279
00:18:17,180 --> 00:18:19,810
Min Min, a word?

280
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,180
Lucy, wait for me.

281
00:18:24,980 --> 00:18:27,770
Teach me how to trade.

282
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,110
Whose card is this?

283
00:18:30,230 --> 00:18:31,480
Mine.

284
00:18:31,940 --> 00:18:33,820
How much money?

285
00:18:34,780 --> 00:18:36,030
¥200,000.

286
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:39,620
Where'd you get money like that?

287
00:18:40,660 --> 00:18:43,330
Someone gave it to me.

288
00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:49,670
Aren't you going broke?

289
00:18:49,750 --> 00:18:51,590
Contingency funds for the restaurant.

290
00:18:52,300 --> 00:18:54,130
What if Madame finds out?

291
00:18:54,130 --> 00:18:55,420
We don't need the cash now.

292
00:18:55,420 --> 00:18:58,550
Watch Min Min. Buy whatever she buys.

293
00:18:58,890 --> 00:19:00,140
You can't go wrong.

294
00:19:02,350 --> 00:19:03,930
What if you lose money?

295
00:19:04,020 --> 00:19:06,270
He said losses are on him.

296
00:19:08,940 --> 00:19:10,560
I can't help you.

297
00:19:12,020 --> 00:19:13,190
Why not?

298
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,780
Too much money from unknown sources.

299
00:19:15,900 --> 00:19:18,110
Helping you will doom you.

300
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:21,910
Jiangxi!

301
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:23,620
Don't get me wrong.

302
00:19:23,910 --> 00:19:26,460
I'm just following my Madame's lead.

303
00:19:26,580 --> 00:19:29,880
Her friends are the best in the business.

304
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,210
Without help, you'll lose money.

305
00:19:32,210 --> 00:19:35,050
-Everyone's making a killing.
-That's why it's dangerous!

306
00:19:37,630 --> 00:19:40,140
You won't help? Fine.

307
00:19:40,220 --> 00:19:41,510
Jiangxi!

308
00:19:41,850 --> 00:19:43,100
Bye!

309
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,770
Something's off with Jiangxi.

310
00:19:49,690 --> 00:19:52,610
It's not related to
Lu Meilin's husband, is it?

311
00:19:52,690 --> 00:19:53,650
Let's go.

312
00:19:54,820 --> 00:19:56,900
-We can go now.
-Okay.

313
00:20:00,870 --> 00:20:02,370
Watch out.

314
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,500
Turn left from here.

315
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,120
-Thank you, Officer!
-Sure.

316
00:20:23,390 --> 00:20:27,100
The stock market scares the gutless
and awards the brave.

317
00:20:27,180 --> 00:20:28,180
Right.

318
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,480
Nothing to look at. It's not open yet.

319
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:32,730
When does it open?

320
00:20:32,810 --> 00:20:34,230
What is Yingzhou about?

321
00:20:34,360 --> 00:20:35,480
"Acquisition."

322
00:20:35,780 --> 00:20:39,200
The acquirer injects capital
into Yingzhou, the acquiree.

323
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,950
Performance improves,
raising shareholders' returns.

324
00:20:42,120 --> 00:20:43,280
When it comes to 601,

325
00:20:43,530 --> 00:20:47,040
the price is still low,
especially compared to overseas.

326
00:20:47,500 --> 00:20:50,500
Those stocks are hundreds...
No, thousands, per share.

327
00:20:50,580 --> 00:20:54,380
Then factor in the exchange rate
of 1 to 5.76--

328
00:20:54,460 --> 00:20:55,670
Excuse me, sir.

329
00:20:55,750 --> 00:21:01,010
-Is Yingzhou worth buying?
-Sure, they're all lined up to buy 601.

330
00:21:01,180 --> 00:21:03,550
Everyone, guess.
How high can Yingzhou go?

331
00:21:03,550 --> 00:21:05,550
4-¥50 a share.
-No, ¥70!

332
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,350
-My estimate?
-Tell us.

333
00:21:07,350 --> 00:21:08,350
¥80!

334
00:21:09,100 --> 00:21:11,140
-Let's make money!
-Here, a lucky mandarin.

335
00:21:11,140 --> 00:21:12,400
I made money.

336
00:21:13,020 --> 00:21:15,110
Market's open.

337
00:21:30,330 --> 00:21:33,870
Let the masses eat up
what we're getting rid of.

338
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,000
Time to sheathe our swords,
clear the battlefield, and come home.

339
00:21:38,090 --> 00:21:39,090
Yes, Mr. Qiang!

340
00:21:39,170 --> 00:21:42,090
We sell in batches of 20,000.
You buy in batches of 300 and 500.

341
00:21:42,130 --> 00:21:45,220
Start. Sell order for 601,
Yingzhou Industrial.

342
00:21:45,260 --> 00:21:46,970
20,000 shares, sold.

343
00:21:49,220 --> 00:21:50,520
One at a time!

344
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:58,900
20,000 shares at ¥37.50.

345
00:22:05,070 --> 00:22:07,700

It's a runaway market.

346

<i>How many shares left?</i>

347
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,700
Bit by bit, we've sold off 40%.

348
00:22:11,830 --> 00:22:15,370
Above ¥30,
sell 50,000 shares every ¥0.20 increase.

No more overdraft orders.

350
00:22:18,500 --> 00:22:20,710
Sell nine shares for every share we buy.

351
00:22:20,710 --> 00:22:24,630
Sell fast, but buy at key points.
300 here, 500 there. Keep pushing.

352
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,340
One moment please.

Offload all our shares by tomorrow.

355
00:22:34,100 --> 00:22:36,810
Buy one share for every three sold.

356
00:22:36,810 --> 00:22:39,190
Do it discreetly.

357
00:22:39,270 --> 00:22:41,570
Sell 50,000, and cancel 100,000.

358
00:22:41,650 --> 00:22:44,440
What are you playing at?
Didn't you just ask to buy 500,000?

359
00:22:44,530 --> 00:22:46,280
To sell, someone has to buy.

360
00:22:46,360 --> 00:22:48,450
Cancel another 100,000, sell 50,000.

361
00:22:48,820 --> 00:22:52,370
601, selling 21,000 shares at ¥40.70.

Madame, everything's sold.
I'm coming back.

375
00:24:03,820 --> 00:24:04,900
Okay.

ப

377
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:14,120
Mr. Qiang, we've sold 80% of our shares.

378
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:15,540
Keep selling.

379
00:24:15,700 --> 00:24:16,950
Remember.

380
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:21,000
Keep 100,000 shares as a memento.
Hold them forever.

381
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,590
Also, besides the 100,000,

382
00:24:23,670 --> 00:24:27,800
once we've sold off everything,
let the market fall slowly.

383
00:24:27,970 --> 00:24:30,260
Don't let the price collapse.
We should have some class.

384
00:24:30,550 --> 00:24:33,680
Understood. Match every buying order

Selling 601.

<i>3 years ago,</i>

392

A wave of Shenzhen capital
swept the Shanghai market.

393
00:25:31,070 --> 00:25:33,660
<i>Local investors didn't have a chance.</i>

These guys are back.

<i>Putting it into perspective,</i>

397
00:25:38,830 --> 00:25:41,830
they have really opened the eyes
of Shanghai's traders.

398

<i>Before, we only understood buying low
and selling high.</i>

<i>Now,</i>

400
00:25:47,550 --> 00:25:50,210
we've learned the power of shares.

401
00:25:50,460 --> 00:25:55,050
A shareholder makes money,
but also holds rights.

402
00:25:55,140 --> 00:25:56,930
<i>Sure we learned,</i>

403
00:25:57,060 --> 00:25:59,180
but they're still too ruthless.

404
00:26:14,360 --> 00:26:16,490
Where's that stock analyst?

405
00:26:16,580 --> 00:26:19,280
-Don't know.
-What stock analyst?

406
00:26:19,290 --> 00:26:20,910
That guy's a fraud.

407
00:26:21,120 --> 00:26:23,410
You're not the first to fall for it.

408
00:26:32,300 --> 00:26:33,300
Go die!

409
00:26:33,380 --> 00:26:37,340
Bury this money with you.

410
00:26:37,430 --> 00:26:40,680
Bring your no-good friends with you.

411
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,140
You wanna gamble?

412
00:26:42,140 --> 00:26:45,140
I'll burn down the stock exchange,
and you can gamble in hell!

413
00:26:45,230 --> 00:26:46,940
-You're crazy.
-Serves you right.

414
00:26:47,020 --> 00:26:48,860
You women know nothing.

415
00:26:48,860 --> 00:26:52,400
-Trading stocks isn't gambling.
-What else could it be?!

416
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,490
Why don't you divorce me then?

417
00:26:55,570 --> 00:26:58,530
Divorce? I dare you to divorce me.

418
00:26:58,620 --> 00:27:00,700
You won't get a cent from me.

419
00:27:00,700 --> 00:27:02,700
Who's gonna get it then, Honggen?

420
00:27:02,790 --> 00:27:04,830
You... disgusting little....

421
00:27:04,830 --> 00:27:09,130
Keep Honggen out of your mouth.
You're not even worth his little finger.

422
00:27:09,210 --> 00:27:11,540
He's a criminal.

423
00:27:11,710 --> 00:27:12,920
Calm down.

424
00:27:15,420 --> 00:27:17,430
Out of my way! I'm gonna kill him.

425
00:27:20,430 --> 00:27:21,800
Min Min!

426
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:25,890
Jiangxi.

427
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,190
I ignored your advice and went all-in.

428
00:27:29,860 --> 00:27:32,780
How come everyone made money except me?

429
00:27:33,030 --> 00:27:37,320
Did Mr. Jin tell you to buy?
Does Lu Meilin know?

430
00:27:38,740 --> 00:27:41,410
For now, she thinks Mr. Jin
bought the stocks himself.

431
00:27:41,490 --> 00:27:43,700
What exactly did he tell you?

432
00:27:43,830 --> 00:27:47,540
Were you just delivering the money,
or was he giving you a cut?

433
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,000
20%? Please don't tell me...

434
00:27:51,250 --> 00:27:55,340
We had a deal. Get rich,
and leave Mei Lin Garden together.

435
00:27:55,420 --> 00:27:57,340
Are you nuts?

436
00:27:58,260 --> 00:28:02,100
Mr. Jin is a gambler, not a good person.

437
00:28:02,390 --> 00:28:07,520
Before Lu Meilin finds out,
break it off with Mr. Jin.

438
00:28:08,350 --> 00:28:10,100
I just wanted to be a Madame myself.

439
00:28:18,360 --> 00:28:20,570
Mr. Jin is not going to help with that.

440
00:28:20,740 --> 00:28:23,240
My boss, Li Li, works for herself.

441
00:28:23,330 --> 00:28:27,290
-You can become a Madame all on your own.
-But I need money!

442
00:28:27,870 --> 00:28:30,830
We were servers,
and now we're supervisors.

443
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:35,840
We can earn tips, but tip money will never
be enough to start my own restaurant!

444
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,090
Jiangxi!

445
00:28:39,380 --> 00:28:41,090
Jiangxi, don't panic.

446
00:28:41,180 --> 00:28:42,970
Just play dumb.

447
00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:00,570
<i>The Baoying Incident was China's

00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:24,970
Hi, Madame.

455
00:29:29,100 --> 00:29:31,270
-Hi, Madame.
-Hi.

456
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,190
Have a safe ride.

457
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,160
I'm exhausted carrying this much!

458
00:29:51,250 --> 00:29:53,460
-He's here.
-Mr. Bao!

459
00:29:53,710 --> 00:29:56,000
These errands got me sweating today.

460
00:29:56,250 --> 00:29:57,880
I'm dying of thirst.

461
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,380
One dinner turned into six cases of cash.

462
00:30:01,470 --> 00:30:04,260
This Li Li is something else.

463
00:30:05,470 --> 00:30:08,680
A pricey dinner, but worth it.

464
00:30:09,430 --> 00:30:10,680
I'm leaving.

465
00:30:10,770 --> 00:30:11,600
Ah Bao.

Are you going?

467
00:30:17,020 --> 00:30:18,400
Wasn't invited.

468
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:20,320

-Madame.

470
00:30:21,820 --> 00:30:23,150
Is your friend any good?

471
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,700
He's the one-stop shop for repairs.

472
00:30:25,780 --> 00:30:28,780
If the heater doesn't work tonight,
I'll make you pay.

00:30:42,130 --> 00:30:44,470
Will it live up to my standards?

480
00:30:44,550 --> 00:30:46,380
<i>Too bad you won't find any flaws.</i>

481
00:30:46,470 --> 00:30:49,180
6:30 tonight.
We reserved the upstairs room for you.

482
00:30:49,260 --> 00:30:50,350
Show up on time.

483
00:30:52,930 --> 00:30:54,890
Who are you?

484
00:30:54,980 --> 00:30:57,440
We need to know.
You can't just go in there.

485
00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:58,770
Who're you looking for?

486
00:31:06,660 --> 00:31:08,780
Sorry, Mr. Bao, it's been too busy today.

487
00:31:08,780 --> 00:31:10,450
Busy is good.

488
00:31:10,540 --> 00:31:13,330
Your briefcase keeps getting heavier.

489
00:31:13,410 --> 00:31:14,540
There are more.

490
00:31:14,620 --> 00:31:17,420
Please have a seat. I'll get my Madame.

491
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,870
-The police are here!
-What's going on? There's cops all over.

492
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:03,040
-Mr. Bao's waiting inside.
-Madame!

493
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,050
Madame, cops are asking for you.

494
00:32:12,220 --> 00:32:14,680
Hey, Captain Cai, what's up?

495
00:32:15,220 --> 00:32:16,600
Uncle Ye wants you.

496
00:32:17,230 --> 00:32:18,480
Mr. Bao!

497
00:32:19,940 --> 00:32:23,150
Something going on at The Grand Lisbon.

498
00:32:23,650 --> 00:32:25,480
<i>Find out what happened.</i>

499
00:32:41,250 --> 00:32:42,880
Shanghai Municipal Police.

500
00:32:43,210 --> 00:32:44,540
Are you Li Li?

501
00:32:44,630 --> 00:32:45,800
I am.

502
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:50,420
This is an official investigation.
Please cooperate and come with us.

503
00:32:52,340 --> 00:32:54,850
Pardon, could we do this in private?

504
00:32:58,350 --> 00:32:59,850
Your ID, please.

505
00:32:59,940 --> 00:33:02,560
We need to verify your identity.

506
00:33:02,650 --> 00:33:04,270
How much time will this take?

507
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,860
If you cooperate and tell us the truth,

508
00:33:07,860 --> 00:33:10,200
you can leave within 24 hours.

509
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,950
If you don't cooperate,

510
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:13,620
we'll have to prosecute you.

511
00:33:43,150 --> 00:33:47,730
Turns out she was a crook!

512
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:52,700
Madames come and go on Huanghe Road.
I've seen it again and again.

513
00:33:52,700 --> 00:33:55,320
She's the first to be grabbed by cops.

514
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,580
Business is good, so what?

515
00:33:57,580 --> 00:34:00,240
That many cops for just one person?

516
00:34:00,250 --> 00:34:01,790
Must be a serious crime.

517
00:34:01,910 --> 00:34:05,420
Starting from now, handle the register
and reassure the guests.

518
00:34:05,420 --> 00:34:07,920
I'll monitor all staff and maintain
regular operations.

519
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,800
Tomorrow is pay-day...

520
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,010
If Madame isn't back,
will there be problems?

521
00:34:13,090 --> 00:34:14,760
One day at a time.

522
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,510
Let's get through today first.

523
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,300
Don't let Madame's absence show.

524
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,400
I thought you didn't like catfish.

525
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,280
So you've heard. News travels fast.

526
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,410
Didn't need to travel far.

527
00:34:37,490 --> 00:34:40,740
The catfish bone is stuck in your throat.
What will you do?

528
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,580
How it's stuck, and where.

529
00:34:45,670 --> 00:34:47,170
That's what I need to find out.

530
00:34:47,250 --> 00:34:50,420
This Yingzhou situation
is not that simple.

531
00:34:50,500 --> 00:34:56,010
One misstep, and you'll land in jail.

532
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:57,970
Understand?

533
00:34:58,850 --> 00:35:02,260
We got lucky.
The stock exchange just called.

534
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:03,560
What now?

535
00:35:03,980 --> 00:35:07,520
The Securities Regulatory Commission
investigated the 10 biggest sellers

536
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,730
of Yingzhou Industrial. We're included.

537
00:35:09,860 --> 00:35:10,980
<i>Luckily...</i>

538
00:35:11,070 --> 00:35:15,030
<i>We only bought in after the announcement.
Doesn't count as insider trading.</i>

539
00:35:15,110 --> 00:35:16,950
Or else we'd be screwed.

540
00:35:17,620 --> 00:35:20,160
I guess Mr. Qiang's tactics saved us.

541
00:35:22,950 --> 00:35:24,370
Still working?

542
00:35:24,460 --> 00:35:26,460
Madame, it won't start. I'm out of ideas.

543
00:35:26,540 --> 00:35:28,460
So it's still broken?

544
00:35:28,540 --> 00:35:29,960
Get down here.

545
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,210
-Quick!
-Careful, Madame.

546
00:35:33,340 --> 00:35:36,920
We're about to open,
and the fire's still out.

547
00:35:36,970 --> 00:35:39,260
We should've replaced it long ago.

548
00:35:39,340 --> 00:35:40,600
Easy for you to say.

549
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,850
We're open in 2 hours, so do what we can.

550
00:35:42,850 --> 00:35:44,890
Desperate measures time.

551
00:35:46,060 --> 00:35:47,810
-The lighter.
-Here.

552
00:35:48,190 --> 00:35:54,230
Don't just stand there yapping.
Be resourceful.

553
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:55,280
Water.

554
00:35:56,490 --> 00:35:58,610
-And?
-It's warm!

555
00:35:58,700 --> 00:36:00,490
-It's warm.
-Fill up all the teapots.

556
00:36:00,490 --> 00:36:02,120
-Get everything ready.
-Okay.

557
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,580
Monk, I'm telling you.
Use your brain, or just quit.

558
00:36:11,170 --> 00:36:13,340
Oh my... the dress is torn.

559
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,960
Xiao Wen, bring me my chef's uniform.

560
00:36:16,050 --> 00:36:17,880
Okay, let's move!

561
00:36:25,310 --> 00:36:27,770
Luwan District, Yanzhong Street.

562
00:36:27,850 --> 00:36:29,600
From Captain Ge.

563
00:36:29,690 --> 00:36:31,520
Who's that?

564
00:36:31,610 --> 00:36:32,860
-What's my surname?
-Ge.

565
00:36:32,940 --> 00:36:34,320
I'm Captain Ge, duh!

566
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:35,400
You're Captain Ge?

567
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:40,030
Bring it over. In the center.
Or nobody will see it.

568
00:36:40,030 --> 00:36:41,990
Here, in the middle.

569
00:36:42,030 --> 00:36:43,280
It's so empty...

570
00:36:43,490 --> 00:36:46,620
-Hurry, we're opening soon.
-Okay.

571
00:36:53,290 --> 00:36:55,960
Come on, look at the time.

572
00:36:56,050 --> 00:36:58,880
Even the flowers are here.
Not a guest in sight.

573
00:36:58,970 --> 00:37:01,430
It's still too early.

574
00:37:04,300 --> 00:37:05,600
Where's Tao Tao?

575
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:07,260
Picking up his gang.

576
00:37:07,350 --> 00:37:09,350
Call them. Tell them to dress nicely.

577
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,190
I'll tell them to dress like me.

578
00:37:11,270 --> 00:37:12,600
Xiao Wen, where's Madame?

579
00:37:12,690 --> 00:37:13,980
In the back.

580
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:15,690
Hurry up.

581
00:37:24,030 --> 00:37:24,870
She's here.

582
00:37:24,950 --> 00:37:27,040
-It's almost time. Talk to her.
-You go.

583
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:28,450
-You guys go.
-No, you.

584
00:37:28,450 --> 00:37:29,830
Why you...

585
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,170
Ling Zi, it's getting late.

586
00:37:33,250 --> 00:37:35,380
When will we open?

587
00:37:35,460 --> 00:37:36,960
In 10 minutes.

588
00:37:37,590 --> 00:37:39,550
All tables booked?

589
00:37:39,630 --> 00:37:40,460
Yes.

590
00:37:40,590 --> 00:37:42,340
Oh, great.

591
00:37:42,720 --> 00:37:43,590
Ling Zi.

592
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:47,010
Are you sure people will come?

593
00:37:47,890 --> 00:37:51,390
Don't get me wrong,
but today is Sunday, you know?

594
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,980
-Some people may be working overtime.
--Right.

595
00:37:54,060 --> 00:37:56,360
Plus things may happen at home, right?

596
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,360
-The weather isn't great.
-Yeah.

597
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,860
Quite awkward if nobody comes.

598
00:38:00,990 --> 00:38:02,490
Wha...

599
00:38:02,570 --> 00:38:04,990
Have the waitresses ask around.

600
00:38:04,990 --> 00:38:07,450
If people aren't coming,
you should have a backup plan.

601
00:38:07,540 --> 00:38:09,040
Backup plan?

602
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:10,870
Plenty of options!

603
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,540
I told my buddies to be
on standby across the street.

604
00:38:13,540 --> 00:38:15,250
Don't worry.
They're dressed as nice as me.

605
00:38:15,330 --> 00:38:18,300
If nobody comes,
they'll come to fill all the seats.

606
00:38:18,380 --> 00:38:20,630
-Your opening night will look the part.
-Exactly.

607
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,880
As shareholders, we're responsible too.

608
00:38:22,970 --> 00:38:23,680
Right.

609
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:25,260
There's no need.

610
00:38:25,470 --> 00:38:27,720
-It's just in case.
-Just in case.

611
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:29,350
In case...

612
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:31,310
nobody comes.

613
00:38:31,730 --> 00:38:34,350
I don't need any seat-fillers.

614
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,440
We open on schedule.

615
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,740
If one guest comes, I'll serve one guest.

616
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,200
If ten guests come, I'll serve ten.

617
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:52,830
Nobody comes, then I'll wait.

618
00:38:53,250 --> 00:38:56,920
If it's empty, it just means
my preparations were subpar.

619
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:58,670
I'll adjust.

620
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:02,380
Tokyo Nights used to depend on Mr. Bao.

621
00:39:02,630 --> 00:39:06,260
Now it depends rely on our own ability.

622
00:39:07,010 --> 00:39:08,010
She's right.

623
00:39:08,100 --> 00:39:10,140
Madame, it's time.

624
00:39:11,770 --> 00:39:13,100
Come.

625
00:39:15,020 --> 00:39:16,440
Cheers.

626
00:39:20,900 --> 00:39:22,400
-Go.
-Go!

627
00:39:49,390 --> 00:39:51,260
Once I open this door...

628
00:39:52,430 --> 00:39:54,260
for better or worse,

629
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,600
there's no turning back.

630
00:40:01,060 --> 00:40:02,480
Thank you all.

631

-Thanks.
-Don't just guess...

638
00:41:06,050 --> 00:41:07,460
Confirm!

639
00:41:09,090 --> 00:41:09,920
And?

640
00:41:11,260 --> 00:41:13,720

Li Li.

643
00:41:17,350 --> 00:41:19,060
ID number?

644
00:41:27,030 --> 00:41:28,650
Date of birth?

645
00:41:28,780 --> 00:41:30,440
It's on the ID.

646
00:41:30,900 --> 00:41:32,570
Home address?

647
00:41:34,030 --> 00:41:39,290
Same as the restaurant. 188 Huanghe Road.

648
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:47,460
Have some water.

649
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:49,090
"Li Li."

650
00:41:51,130 --> 00:41:54,840
Today, you were summoned
by the Shanghai Municipal Police

651
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:59,140
to help investigate market manipulation
in the Baoying Incident,

652
00:41:59,140 --> 00:42:01,980
as well as illegal trading practices.

653
00:42:02,020 --> 00:42:03,600
Please tell the truth.

654
00:42:04,020 --> 00:42:09,280
Any misrepresentation or perjury will meet
with serious consequences.

655
00:42:09,690 --> 00:42:11,110
Understand?

656
00:42:11,950 --> 00:42:13,240
Yes.

657
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,200
First question.
The capital you used to buy 601.

658
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:17,160
What is its source?

659
00:42:17,240 --> 00:42:20,500
Was it your own, or borrowed from banks?

660
00:42:23,420 --> 00:42:27,750
I thought it was Shenzhen Baolong
which first bought Yingzhou shares.

661
00:42:28,170 --> 00:42:29,800
Why not ask them?

662
00:42:30,170 --> 00:42:32,380
If a restaurant gets in legal trouble,

663
00:42:32,470 --> 00:42:38,560
maybe the Commerce Administration
or Food Inspection would investigate.

664
00:42:39,350 --> 00:42:41,350
But Criminal Investigation?

665
00:42:41,430 --> 00:42:43,730
That's serious.

666
00:42:44,060 --> 00:42:46,810
Besides Li Li, others have been summoned.

667
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:48,480
Who?

668
00:42:48,650 --> 00:42:50,360
Shenzhen's Mr. Qiang.

669
00:42:55,610 --> 00:42:57,280
He's right next door to Li Li.

670
00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,280
How much capital do you manage?

671
00:42:59,830 --> 00:43:01,370
About ¥200 million.

672
00:43:01,910 --> 00:43:03,540
Standard corporate proceeding.

673
00:43:04,210 --> 00:43:07,250
And we have asset management contracts.

674
00:43:07,670 --> 00:43:09,210
It's all by the book.

675
00:43:11,050 --> 00:43:12,090
Good.

676
00:43:12,170 --> 00:43:13,550
Answer me this.

677
00:43:14,470 --> 00:43:19,140
By law, you must declare
when your ownership stake reaches 5%.

678
00:43:19,470 --> 00:43:23,020
You reached 16% before you declared.

679
00:43:23,270 --> 00:43:25,180
Was that not market manipulation?

680
00:43:33,740 --> 00:43:35,400
I told you.

681
00:43:35,530 --> 00:43:37,360
You're asking the wrong person.

682
00:43:37,740 --> 00:43:39,820
Ask those who made the announcement.

683
00:43:39,910 --> 00:43:42,240
Price is a matter of supply and demand.

684
00:43:42,330 --> 00:43:45,000
But you profited greatly from all this.

685
00:43:45,500 --> 00:43:47,120
All of it legal.

686
00:43:47,210 --> 00:43:53,710
Besides, isn't it good
for a listed company to grow in value?

687
00:43:54,130 --> 00:43:57,010
Our information shows
the Shenzhen traders

688
00:43:57,090 --> 00:43:59,970
used The Grand Lisbon like
their headquarters.

689
00:44:00,470 --> 00:44:02,680
If I illegally operate my restaurant,

690
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,180
the case would go
to the commerce administration.

691
00:44:05,270 --> 00:44:09,350
If my pricing is unfair, the case
would go to the pricing administration.

692
00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:12,730
I don't see how my restaurant is relevant.

693
00:44:13,020 --> 00:44:14,860
It was confirmed next door.

694
00:44:15,110 --> 00:44:18,700
It was at The Grand Lisbon that you
planned to manipulate the market.

695
00:44:18,820 --> 00:44:19,950
Right?

696
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:40,880
<i>"Congratulation.
From Qiang Mujie, Southern Investments"</i>

697
00:44:47,770 --> 00:44:51,440
Madame, it's already 7:00.
Is the upstairs guest still coming?

698
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,560
Too late, cancel his reservation.
