4
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,860
A single choice can define your life.

5
00:01:48,020 --> 00:01:49,860
Even if you know right from wrong,

6
00:01:50,110 --> 00:01:52,190
you can't escape from destiny.

7
00:01:54,740 --> 00:01:56,320
If Ling Zi doesn't come back,

8
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,700
it means she's found something better.

9
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,330
When it comes to love,

10
00:02:03,620 --> 00:02:05,080
once you turn away,

11
00:02:05,170 --> 00:02:06,960
things will never be the same.

12
00:02:09,090 --> 00:02:11,960
Mr. Ge, make a wish.

13
00:02:12,920 --> 00:02:13,760
Hurry.

14
00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:17,140
I wish that Tokyo Nights will prosper.

15
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,600
Then I wish

16
00:02:22,430 --> 00:02:25,520
we'll all eat together at here everyday.

17
00:02:25,810 --> 00:02:30,360
as a place for love and friendship.

18
00:02:36,820 --> 00:02:39,120
Whether or not Ling Zi is here,

19
00:02:40,330 --> 00:02:42,370
today is still her birthday.

20
00:02:42,910 --> 00:02:44,750
We should have some cake.

21
00:02:53,050 --> 00:02:55,380
Be quiet. People are sleeping.

22
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,840
I'm sorry, Ling Zi.

23
00:03:00,260 --> 00:03:01,850
Please forgive me.

24
00:03:08,770 --> 00:03:10,480
This way.

25
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,570
This place is so nice.

26
00:03:14,610 --> 00:03:16,400
Why did the last tenant leave?

27
00:03:16,490 --> 00:03:17,780
Personal reasons.

28
00:03:19,410 --> 00:03:20,950
I'm just...

29
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,740
I'm just worried

30
00:03:22,990 --> 00:03:27,120
they left because of bad feng shui.

31
00:03:27,370 --> 00:03:28,920
The feng shui is great.

32
00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:31,960
The old Madame was here
for a very long time.

33
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,000
Really?

34
00:03:34,090 --> 00:03:37,470
Business was smooth.
And lots of regulars.

35
00:03:37,470 --> 00:03:38,720
Really now?

36
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,180
Is this really your property?

37
00:03:40,180 --> 00:03:41,260
Why wouldn't it be?

38
00:03:41,260 --> 00:03:43,140
How else could I rent it to you?

39
00:03:55,900 --> 00:03:57,280
Quietly, please.

40
00:03:57,740 --> 00:04:00,160
Why are you sneaking around?

41
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,450
Do you really own this property?

42
00:04:02,450 --> 00:04:03,870
Of course I do.

43
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,540
Ask anyone on this street.

44
00:04:06,660 --> 00:04:08,000
Everyone knows

45
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000
I'm the landlord here.

46
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,290
When can we sign the lease then?

47
00:04:12,340 --> 00:04:14,040
Anytime.

48
00:04:18,050 --> 00:04:19,300
I'm so sorry.

49
00:04:19,380 --> 00:04:20,630
Mr. Ge,

50
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,180
you already found a new tenant?

51
00:04:22,300 --> 00:04:23,720
I'm sorry.

52
00:04:25,850 --> 00:04:27,060
A friend introduced her.

53
00:04:27,060 --> 00:04:28,390
She's just browsing.

54
00:04:28,390 --> 00:04:29,770
So even your friends know?

55
00:04:29,770 --> 00:04:33,100
Are you the previous Madame?

56
00:04:33,770 --> 00:04:35,860
I was only renting after all.

57
00:04:35,860 --> 00:04:37,690
Sooner or later,

58
00:04:37,690 --> 00:04:39,700
I'd have to leave.

59
00:04:39,950 --> 00:04:42,570
I was going to stay a few days
to help tidy up

60
00:04:42,570 --> 00:04:44,320
before Mr. Ge started giving tours.

61
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,580
Who knew he was so eager to start?

62
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,330
It's not like that,
she's just passing through.

63
00:04:52,420 --> 00:04:55,290
In the end,
a landlord just cares about money.

64
00:04:55,710 --> 00:04:57,420
You seem like a nice person.

65
00:04:57,420 --> 00:05:00,880
Here, reach out if you have questions.

66
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,140
I was here for such a long time,

67
00:05:03,220 --> 00:05:05,470
I know this place better than Mr. Ge.

68
00:05:05,470 --> 00:05:07,220
And I wouldn't lie to you.

69
00:05:07,220 --> 00:05:08,890
Call me anytime.

70
00:05:10,140 --> 00:05:10,980
Great.

71
00:05:11,140 --> 00:05:12,480
Thank you.

72
00:05:12,850 --> 00:05:13,900
I'll be off then.

73
00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:14,980
-Bye!
-Bye.

74
00:05:14,980 --> 00:05:16,690
I'll walk her out.

75
00:05:20,150 --> 00:05:21,570
Mr. Ge.

76
00:05:23,450 --> 00:05:25,070
Uh... I won't walk her out.

77
00:05:28,790 --> 00:05:29,870
Sit down.

78
00:05:36,430 --> 00:05:37,680
I...

79
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,130
was really worried
you weren't coming back.

80
00:05:42,630 --> 00:05:44,300
Not just me.

81
00:05:44,380 --> 00:05:45,760
Tao Tao,

82
00:05:45,890 --> 00:05:47,260
Ling Hong,

83
00:05:47,890 --> 00:05:49,720
and especially Mr. Bao.

84
00:05:50,980 --> 00:05:54,190
He said we can't keep going like this.

85
00:05:54,850 --> 00:05:55,940
That's why

86
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,560
I had to think of the future.

87
00:05:59,190 --> 00:06:01,360
Honestly, I didn't even know

88
00:06:01,530 --> 00:06:04,450
if there'd be interest in this place.

89
00:06:04,860 --> 00:06:06,740
I wasn't accusing you.

90
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,950
I even said it was fine.

91
00:06:09,410 --> 00:06:12,240
You can find a new tenant.

92
00:06:12,250 --> 00:06:14,830
Tokyo Nights can move out.

93
00:06:14,870 --> 00:06:16,170
Absolutely not.

94
00:06:17,710 --> 00:06:20,130
Tokyo Nights is Tokyo Nights
only if it's here.

95
00:06:20,170 --> 00:06:22,670
It won't be the same anywhere else.

96
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,100
Have Tao Tao and Ling Hong come tomorrow.

97
00:06:28,350 --> 00:06:30,060
I'll do that right now.

98
00:06:34,890 --> 00:06:36,100
Uncle Ye,

99
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,560
could you help cover rent this month?

100
00:06:38,770 --> 00:06:41,480
She chose to leave.

101
00:06:41,570 --> 00:06:43,860
No matter where she is,

102
00:06:43,900 --> 00:06:45,570
the rent is still her responsibility.

103
00:06:45,570 --> 00:06:48,780
She did this knowing
you'd take care of it,

104
00:06:48,780 --> 00:06:50,870
or she's planning to quit.

105
00:06:50,990 --> 00:06:54,500
Either way, you shouldn't pay.

106
00:06:55,250 --> 00:06:56,710
She's already back,

107
00:06:56,790 --> 00:06:58,170
and she has new plans.

108
00:06:58,250 --> 00:07:00,920
We're meeting tomorrow
to discuss everything.

109
00:07:02,380 --> 00:07:04,380
Demon back to haunt us.

110
00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:13,430
Quick, tell me,

111
00:07:13,430 --> 00:07:16,270
you really saw her? You're sure?

112
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:17,940
I was scared to death.

113
00:07:17,940 --> 00:07:19,650
-Go see for your--
-I'm not going. You go.

114
00:07:19,650 --> 00:07:21,270
No, you go. Who is it?

115
00:07:21,610 --> 00:07:24,530
The Madame wants you
to come to lunch. Come quick.

116
00:07:26,110 --> 00:07:28,400
What does "come quick" mean?

117
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,450
-It means lunch is ready, what else?
-She wants us over for lunch?

118
00:07:32,580 --> 00:07:34,120
Could it be...

119
00:07:35,330 --> 00:07:36,580
A trap?

120
00:07:38,420 --> 00:07:39,580
What trap?

121
00:07:40,170 --> 00:07:42,710
What? Revenge?

122
00:07:42,710 --> 00:07:45,460
-Is she going to kill us?
-You want to go? Then go ahead.

123
00:07:45,460 --> 00:07:46,090
Go on then.

124
00:07:46,090 --> 00:07:47,090
You go.

125
00:07:47,090 --> 00:07:48,380
Absolutely not.

126
00:07:48,930 --> 00:07:50,930
The oldest should go.

127
00:07:51,890 --> 00:07:54,260
The... longest haired should go.

128
00:07:54,470 --> 00:07:55,430
Why don't we all go?

129
00:07:55,430 --> 00:07:57,060
-We'll go together.
-Then go.

130
00:07:57,060 --> 00:07:58,600
-Together.
-Fine, let's go.

131
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,020
-Go!
-What's there to be scared of?

132
00:08:00,020 --> 00:08:00,940
Ready? Go.

133
00:08:00,940 --> 00:08:03,320
Come on, let's go.

134
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:04,730
Why aren't you moving?

135
00:08:05,780 --> 00:08:08,070
Honestly, I'm too scared to go.

136
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,070
We could just all stay here.

137
00:08:11,450 --> 00:08:13,280
We don't have to go.

138
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,830
Right, it's just a meal.

139
00:08:14,830 --> 00:08:16,500
What's the big deal?

140
00:08:16,500 --> 00:08:18,120
-It's fine if we don't go.
-Hello?

141
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:18,870
<i>You coming?</i>

142
00:08:18,870 --> 00:08:21,370
I can skip lunch for a day.

143
00:08:21,420 --> 00:08:23,000
Damn it.

144
00:08:23,210 --> 00:08:24,250
Why give it to me?

145
00:08:24,340 --> 00:08:25,630
<i>What's going on?</i>

146
00:08:25,630 --> 00:08:27,000
<i>Are you coming over or not?</i>

147
00:08:27,010 --> 00:08:29,300
<i>I'm not going to keep waiting.</i>

148
00:08:29,970 --> 00:08:31,720
We'll come.

149
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,930
We are on our way.

150
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:38,430
Come on in.

151
00:08:38,770 --> 00:08:40,100
Go.

152
00:08:47,070 --> 00:08:48,530
Where did you go?

153
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:50,610
Japan.

154
00:08:50,780 --> 00:08:52,450
Why Japan?

155
00:08:53,030 --> 00:08:54,030
Vacationing.

156
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:54,910
Having fun.

157
00:08:55,030 --> 00:08:56,200
Clearing my mind.

158
00:08:57,370 --> 00:09:00,960
Tokyo Nights was open all year round.
It never closed for a single day.

159
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,290
After all these years,
it was time to take a break.

160
00:09:04,580 --> 00:09:06,460
Breaks are good,

161
00:09:07,340 --> 00:09:10,590
but still, you should have told us.

162
00:09:11,680 --> 00:09:14,510
You all seem to be doing fine without me.

163
00:09:17,010 --> 00:09:19,100
What did you do in Japan?

164
00:09:19,350 --> 00:09:21,390
Mostly just spending money.

165
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,020
How much did you spend?

166
00:09:24,940 --> 00:09:26,020
All of it.

167
00:09:29,820 --> 00:09:32,200
It's time to restart.

168
00:09:33,030 --> 00:09:35,070
I'm starting from scratch,

169
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,320
and so is Tokyo Nights.

170
00:09:37,330 --> 00:09:40,290
I'm looking for new investors
so I can renovate the shop.

171
00:09:40,290 --> 00:09:42,830
Don't worry. You're
all my closest friends.

172
00:09:42,870 --> 00:09:45,080
If you want in, you'll get first dibs.

173
00:09:45,130 --> 00:09:47,080
Then I'll look elsewhere.

174
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:51,920
This is a big deal.

175
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:54,180
Have you told Mr. Bao?

176
00:09:54,180 --> 00:09:56,260
He has to know, right?

177
00:09:58,470 --> 00:10:00,180
I'm seeing him soon.

178
00:10:24,580 --> 00:10:26,040
Coming.

179
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:33,880
Mrs. Shi.

180
00:10:34,010 --> 00:10:35,720
Your friend just called.

181
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,140
He said he can't make it tonight.

182
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:40,350
Here's his number.

183
00:10:40,680 --> 00:10:41,970
Wait, take this.

184
00:10:42,060 --> 00:10:42,770
Thank you.

185
00:10:42,850 --> 00:10:44,980
I'll see you.

186
00:11:11,250 --> 00:11:13,920
She's singing her sad songs again.

187
00:11:14,220 --> 00:11:16,550
She even prepared dinner,

188
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,220
but he didn't show.

189
00:11:18,220 --> 00:11:20,300
Poor woman.

190
00:11:20,890 --> 00:11:22,930
How's that your business?

191
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,020
Of course it is. We're neighbors.

192
00:11:26,230 --> 00:11:27,480
We should all...

193
00:11:32,730 --> 00:11:34,820
Are you painting Ling Zi?

194
00:11:36,740 --> 00:11:38,150
Stop dreaming.

195
00:11:38,740 --> 00:11:41,370
You have no chance with her.

196
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,580
Neither do you.

197
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,370
You can tell too?

198
00:11:49,540 --> 00:11:51,420
Any idiot could tell.

199
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,550
Come here.

200
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:58,840
What is it?

201
00:11:58,970 --> 00:12:00,680
You're here for rent, aren't you?

202
00:12:00,680 --> 00:12:02,180
That wasn't the intent.

203
00:12:02,260 --> 00:12:04,060
Mr. Chen, listen to me.

204
00:12:04,140 --> 00:12:05,930
I wasn't... you...

205
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,640
That's not why I'm here.

206
00:12:08,890 --> 00:12:11,100
-This is all I have.
-I have ¥75.

207
00:12:11,100 --> 00:12:12,400
Take this for now.

208
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,690
You'll get the rest next week. Okay?

209
00:12:14,690 --> 00:12:17,860
You misunderstood. Listen to me.

210
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,610
Mr. Chen, you misunderstood.

211
00:12:20,610 --> 00:12:22,660
-I--
-Goodbye.

212
00:12:23,780 --> 00:12:26,080
Who does he take me for?

213
00:12:33,540 --> 00:12:37,000
This place should be called
"the house of unrequited love."

214
00:13:33,980 --> 00:13:35,810
Uncle Ye asked for the books.

215
00:13:35,810 --> 00:13:38,520
I never knew how to bookkeep,
but now I've learned.

216
00:13:38,530 --> 00:13:40,110
Show these to him.

217
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,200
Enough about that.

218
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,620
I'm not here to talk accounting.

219
00:13:51,830 --> 00:13:53,620
You were gone for so long.

220
00:13:54,210 --> 00:13:55,790
Now that you're back,

221
00:13:56,210 --> 00:13:57,960
I just have one question.

222
00:13:58,250 --> 00:14:00,050
Do you still want Tokyo Nights?

223
00:14:03,090 --> 00:14:06,340
If you want to keep going,
we can renovate.

224
00:14:06,470 --> 00:14:07,550
Start over.

225
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,850
Just like before,
you won't need outside capital.

226
00:14:11,020 --> 00:14:13,680
However much you need,
I'll pay for it myself./

227
00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:17,810
Of course I want to keep going,

228
00:14:18,730 --> 00:14:20,780
but not like it was before.

229
00:14:20,980 --> 00:14:23,070
I would like you to withdraw.

230
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,820
From now on, Tokyo Nights and Mr. Bao

231
00:14:25,820 --> 00:14:27,410
are totally separate.

232
00:14:31,790 --> 00:14:33,450
People always said that

233
00:14:33,870 --> 00:14:38,080
I watched over Tokyo Nights
waiting for you to come home.

234
00:14:39,340 --> 00:14:41,090
I never gave an explanation.

235
00:14:41,170 --> 00:14:42,880
I never had one anyway.

236
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,130
But I figured one out.

237
00:14:45,340 --> 00:14:47,800
You'll take your shares back.
I'll get new shareholders.

238
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,970
A new Tokyo Nights with new investors
will speak for itself.

239
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,060
The old rumors about our relationship

240
00:14:57,310 --> 00:14:59,940
will be buried in the past.

241
00:15:00,610 --> 00:15:03,150
It'll be a weight off my shoulders.

242
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,700
I understand.

243
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:15,620
Agreed.

244
00:15:16,290 --> 00:15:18,000
With me or without me,

245
00:15:18,420 --> 00:15:20,540
Tokyo Nights will be fine.

246
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:29,930
Hold on.

247
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,760
Three years ago, I lent you something.

248
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:34,310
Now I want it back.

249
00:15:44,740 --> 00:15:46,400
What was it?

250
00:15:46,900 --> 00:15:48,240
My luck.

251
00:15:49,660 --> 00:15:51,280
Give it back.

252
00:16:22,900 --> 00:16:24,690
<i>"Protective Talisman from Sensoji Temple"</i>

253
00:16:25,650 --> 00:16:30,900
What was three years of luck worth to you?
You decide how much you owe.

254
00:16:36,870 --> 00:16:38,960
I can't put a number on that.

255
00:16:49,380 --> 00:16:51,590
Luck is in everything.

256
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,390
Back then, we both needed all the luck.

257
00:16:57,100 --> 00:16:59,020
Your lending your luck to me

258
00:17:00,230 --> 00:17:04,900
was a sentiment worth my life.

259
00:17:07,740 --> 00:17:11,450
No matter what, I owe you.

260
00:17:12,910 --> 00:17:14,820
I'll give you the money.

261
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,370
If you ever need my help

262
00:17:21,790 --> 00:17:23,040
in the future,

263
00:17:23,500 --> 00:17:25,920
so long as I still have any luck left,

264
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,960
you know where to find me.

265
00:17:30,590 --> 00:17:31,260
Okay.

266
00:17:31,300 --> 00:17:33,970
We'll see whose luck is better then.

267
00:17:35,100 --> 00:17:38,850
Next time you visit, it'll be as a guest.
I'll welcome you.

268
00:17:39,020 --> 00:17:41,600
If you never come back, that's fine.

269
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,310
There will be others.

270
00:17:43,770 --> 00:17:47,230
From now on, nobody's allowed to mix

271
00:17:47,230 --> 00:17:50,440
their personal drama with my Tokyo Nights.

272
00:17:55,360 --> 00:17:59,040
-Are you changing the name?
-No. I'm keeping it for the memories.

273
00:18:35,860 --> 00:18:42,450
<i>Ling Zi said,
"I might as well tear it all down,</i>

274
00:18:42,450 --> 00:18:48,790
<i>and rebuild Tokyo Nights
from the ground up."</i>

275
00:18:52,090 --> 00:18:55,470
<i>In the first half of 1993,
stock prices started to spiral.</i>

276
00:18:55,510 --> 00:18:58,390
<i>A fiery start to the year
was quickly doused in rain.</i>

277
00:18:59,010 --> 00:19:00,760
<i>Facing an overheating economy,</i>

278
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,470
<i>the government responded aggressively.</i>

279
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:08,400
<i>A tighter monetary policy
resulted in the second-ever bear market.</i>

280
00:19:08,770 --> 00:19:12,940
<i>July saw the lowest point
of both Shenzhen and Shanghai's indices.</i>

281
00:19:12,980 --> 00:19:15,900
<i>The Shanghai Composite had fallen by 50%.</i>

282
00:19:16,450 --> 00:19:19,910
<i>Still, tens of thousands of new traders
entered the market every week.</i>

283
00:19:20,410 --> 00:19:25,960
<i>In September, the Shanghai Stock Exchange
amended key regulations,</i>

284
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,250
<i>allowing corporations to trade securities.</i>

285
00:19:30,420 --> 00:19:34,590
<i>This historic change opened a new door,
and money poured into Shanghai,</i>

286
00:19:34,590 --> 00:19:38,720
<i>transforming it from a regional market
into a national one.</i>

287
00:19:43,810 --> 00:19:46,890
<i>A new market brought new possibilities,</i>

288
00:19:47,190 --> 00:19:51,480
<i>and I saw an opportunity to pave the way
for Shanghai Fashion's IPO.</i>

289
00:19:53,490 --> 00:19:56,780
<i>No. 101 XIKANG ROAD</i>
Captain Cai is here!

290
00:19:56,780 --> 00:19:58,450
Stock 378 is garbage.

291
00:19:58,530 --> 00:20:00,660
Buy today, and the price crashes.

292
00:20:00,700 --> 00:20:03,580
Buy tomorrow, and it crashes again.

293
00:20:03,990 --> 00:20:05,200
It's crazy!

294
00:20:05,370 --> 00:20:07,250
Don't get so worked up.

295
00:20:07,620 --> 00:20:10,750
-It's bad for your health.
-Mr. Bao?

296
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,540
Fancy seeing you here.

297
00:20:14,590 --> 00:20:15,710
How's it going?

298
00:20:16,050 --> 00:20:17,590
It's a mess.

299
00:20:17,590 --> 00:20:19,970
Shanghai stocks aren't for locals anymore.

300
00:20:19,970 --> 00:20:22,470
We made the cake,
but other people ate it.

301
00:20:22,510 --> 00:20:25,310
Isn't it good that the cake is growing?

302
00:20:30,100 --> 00:20:32,900
Back then I was a big shot,
and you were nobody.

303
00:20:32,900 --> 00:20:35,940
Now I'm nobody, and you're the big shot.

304
00:20:36,070 --> 00:20:37,400
Where's Stamps Li?

305
00:20:37,570 --> 00:20:38,820
Everyone's scattered.

306
00:20:38,860 --> 00:20:41,110
He went back to selling stamps.

307
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,490
A question for you.

308
00:20:42,820 --> 00:20:46,330
Are you familiar with brokers
in other cities?

309
00:20:46,370 --> 00:20:47,740
What's the matter?

310
00:20:48,540 --> 00:20:50,460
Shanghai Fashion wants to go public.

311
00:20:50,710 --> 00:20:52,750
I'm their advisor.

312
00:20:55,840 --> 00:21:00,050
You and I are the same.
We're always up to something.

313
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,590
Times are changing fast.

314
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,680
I don't want to be a spectator.

315
00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,640
An advisor is not a spectator.

316
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,270
You're the navigator.

317
00:21:09,390 --> 00:21:11,690
I want to ride this wave.

318
00:21:11,980 --> 00:21:13,650
I'd love your insight.

319
00:21:15,020 --> 00:21:16,360
Don't kid around.

320
00:21:16,360 --> 00:21:17,520
You're Mr. Bao.

321
00:21:17,530 --> 00:21:20,820
What do you need me for?

322
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:24,660
I'm going into battle.

323
00:21:25,620 --> 00:21:29,000
How could I win without a Captain?

324
00:21:33,170 --> 00:21:34,500
Be serious.

325
00:21:34,580 --> 00:21:35,670
I am serious.

326
00:21:36,130 --> 00:21:37,750
Why would you need me?

327
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,090
These days, I'm a shell of my former self.

328
00:21:41,170 --> 00:21:42,800
I'm useless.

329
00:21:50,350 --> 00:21:52,020
This is where it all started.

330
00:21:52,270 --> 00:21:55,650
On that fateful day
when you pulled me through the gate.

331
00:21:55,770 --> 00:21:57,520
Hurry!

332
00:21:59,070 --> 00:22:01,650
We went from Zhapu Road to Huanghe Road.

333
00:22:01,820 --> 00:22:03,860
Now I'm taking on Nanjing Road.

334
00:22:03,860 --> 00:22:06,740
You want in or not?

335
00:22:10,910 --> 00:22:14,500
I thought you would never ask.
What's the plan?

336
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,670
Most people just tell you
what you want to hear.

337
00:22:23,420 --> 00:22:26,510
I'm going to be real with you.

338
00:22:27,100 --> 00:22:30,970
They only want you
to help them get to The Club.

339
00:22:30,970 --> 00:22:34,850
If it wasn't for that,
they wouldn't insist on you.

340
00:22:34,900 --> 00:22:40,270
Why else would they pick someone with
no IPO experience to be their advisor?

341
00:22:40,780 --> 00:22:43,110
What did Shanghai Fashion say to you?

342
00:22:44,530 --> 00:22:47,450
Mr. Bao, I'll be frank with you..

343
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,160
I mean no disrespect,

344
00:22:54,540 --> 00:22:56,210
but do you have what it takes?

345
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,210
I can still muster up some funds.

346
00:23:00,670 --> 00:23:03,840
<i>Any IPO requires huge sums of capital.</i>

347
00:23:04,300 --> 00:23:07,130
<i>We are a hundred-year-old company,
nationally recognized.</i>

348
00:23:07,260 --> 00:23:09,510
<i>we need a large ship, not small boat.</i>

349
00:23:11,180 --> 00:23:12,970
We'll do whatever it takes.

350
00:23:14,730 --> 00:23:18,270
Great, other than the funding,

351
00:23:18,360 --> 00:23:20,520
we need the right underwriter

352
00:23:20,610 --> 00:23:24,320
to guarantee victory over Luwan Retail.

353
00:23:24,990 --> 00:23:26,440
<i>Our chairman says,</i>

354
00:23:26,570 --> 00:23:28,450
<i>whoever can get us listed</i>

355
00:23:28,660 --> 00:23:30,530
<i>is who we're partnering with.</i>

356
00:23:31,620 --> 00:23:33,540
So they made it very clear.

357
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,620
The market only recognizes results.

358
00:23:38,670 --> 00:23:40,170
If you want in,

359
00:23:40,750 --> 00:23:42,880
first you build your war chest.

360
00:23:43,460 --> 00:23:47,090
Only then can you obtain the listing.

361
00:23:47,340 --> 00:23:49,050
How's the money coming along?

362
00:23:51,100 --> 00:23:52,890
Why do you think I came to you?

363
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:55,640
I knew it.

364
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,600
You weren't here to ask about brokers.

365
00:23:58,810 --> 00:24:00,520
What's the situation?

366
00:24:01,020 --> 00:24:03,860
Ning Bo found a lead.

367
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,570
Help me figure out if it's solid.

368
00:24:06,610 --> 00:24:07,440
Okay.

369
00:24:08,860 --> 00:24:10,110
I'll call you.

370
00:24:24,420 --> 00:24:29,590
Don't give up!

371
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,370
Let me.

372
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,080
I got this. Just watch!

373
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,600
Cheers!

374
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,100
It's not like I work on Huanghe Road.
Every dollar I make already goes to you.

375
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:22,060
It's not like I work on Huanghe Road.
Every dollar I make already goes to you.

376
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,690
You two are so annoying.

377
00:25:24,690 --> 00:25:26,320
Fine, I got it!

378
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:30,690
Miss Wang, come here.

379
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,870
You trying to break a record?
Managing four warehouses alone...

380
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:40,120
So the Mink King told me your situation
will be resolved in two weeks or so.

381
00:25:40,120 --> 00:25:42,460
I never believed those rumors anyway.

382
00:25:42,580 --> 00:25:44,830
I know you wouldn't do all that.

383
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,170
What do you want?

384
00:25:47,210 --> 00:25:48,340
Listen.

385
00:25:48,380 --> 00:25:51,460
My mother-in-law turns 70 on Saturday.

386
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,800
She's dead set on Mei Lin Garden,

387
00:25:53,930 --> 00:25:57,100
but it's too busy on Saturdays.
I couldn't get a room.

388
00:25:57,140 --> 00:25:58,850
You were popular on Huanghe Road.

389
00:25:58,930 --> 00:26:01,270
Can you help me get a reservation?

390
00:26:01,270 --> 00:26:02,640
I can try.

391
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:06,190
Hello?

392
00:26:06,270 --> 00:26:08,770
<i>Madame? It's Miss Wang.</i>

393
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:10,570
Miss Wang?

394
00:26:10,740 --> 00:26:12,440
<i>Can I reserve a room for Saturday?</i>

395
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:13,570
Saturday?

396
00:26:13,780 --> 00:26:15,910
Our rooms are all booked.

397
00:26:16,990 --> 00:26:19,990
But is it for you or for your friend?

398
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:21,330
<i>It's for my friend.</i>

399
00:26:21,540 --> 00:26:23,660
If you're coming yourself,
I'm sure we can make it work.

400
00:26:23,660 --> 00:26:25,290
Will you come with me?

401
00:26:25,420 --> 00:26:27,130
I'll be there.

402
00:26:27,170 --> 00:26:27,960
How many people?

403
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,340
Ten.

404
00:26:29,420 --> 00:26:31,840
Ten people. Thanks for the help.

405
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:32,760
<i>Bye.</i>

406
00:26:34,010 --> 00:26:36,260
I'll come for the beginning, okay?

407
00:26:36,260 --> 00:26:36,930
Okay.

408
00:26:36,930 --> 00:26:38,850
I'll make a toast to your mother-in-law.

409
00:26:38,850 --> 00:26:40,100
Perfect.

410
00:26:40,100 --> 00:26:41,140
It's a deal.

411
00:26:41,220 --> 00:26:43,930
You're incredible.

412
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:46,850
Jiangxi.

413
00:26:47,190 --> 00:26:48,520
Jiangxi,

414
00:26:49,150 --> 00:26:52,280
call Xiao Er and ask him for a favor.

415
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,490
Move the Saturday reservation
out of the private room.

416
00:26:55,490 --> 00:26:57,570
We're reserving it for Miss Wang.

417
00:26:57,950 --> 00:26:59,580
I thought she had a problem?

418
00:26:59,580 --> 00:27:01,120
If she really has a problem,

419
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:02,950
she wouldn't come to Huanghe Road.

420
00:27:02,950 --> 00:27:05,120
Mr. Bao must have taken care of it.

421
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:06,540
Mr. Bao is going to come?

422
00:27:06,670 --> 00:27:07,370
When?

423
00:27:07,380 --> 00:27:09,340
Saturday.

424
00:27:10,380 --> 00:27:11,380
Madame,

425
00:27:11,550 --> 00:27:14,090
Mr. Bao hasn't come here in a long time.

426
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:21,350
It's obvious that Li Li next door
is competing with Miss Wang.

427
00:27:21,430 --> 00:27:24,430
Miss Wang won't go to The Grand Lisbon.

428
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,440
If she's coming to Mei Lin Garden,
Mr. Bao will definitely be here.

429
00:27:31,940 --> 00:27:33,860
I looked into Ning Bo's lead.

430
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,150
It's a clothing company in Zhejiang.

431
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,450
<i>They invest their cash flow in stocks,
but it hasn't gone well.</i>

432
00:27:39,530 --> 00:27:42,700
<i>They have ¥30 million
tied up in shares of Zhejiang Phoenix.</i>

433
00:27:42,700 --> 00:27:44,580
They don't know what to do.

434
00:27:44,660 --> 00:27:48,790
<i>They want you to take over
and salvage what you can.</i>

435
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,080
Money's no use if it's not liquid,

436
00:27:51,290 --> 00:27:53,380
even if they only charge me 70%.

437
00:27:53,420 --> 00:27:55,880
I need cash, not shares.

438
00:27:56,050 --> 00:27:59,470
I'd be better off taking out a cash loan.

439
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,260
<i>How about a counteroffer?</i>

440
00:28:02,510 --> 00:28:06,020
I'll take their stock
taking out a cash loan.

441
00:28:06,020 --> 00:28:08,020
I'll pay 10% interest on all of it.

442
00:28:08,190 --> 00:28:11,400
In one year,
they they'll get back ¥34.1 million.

443
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:14,940
They stand to profit,
and I buy some time. How's that sound?

444
00:28:15,030 --> 00:28:16,860
Are you free to talk to them tonight?

445
00:28:16,860 --> 00:28:18,110
<i>You talk to them first.</i>

446
00:28:18,450 --> 00:28:21,280
I'm meeting a Walmart representative
at the Red Heron tonight.

447
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:22,410
I'll call you tomorrow.

448
00:28:22,490 --> 00:28:23,830
<i>Sounds good.</i>

449
00:28:47,890 --> 00:28:48,850
Miss Wang.

450
00:28:48,940 --> 00:28:50,940
I knew you'd be back.

451
00:28:52,100 --> 00:28:53,600
How are you?

452
00:28:53,690 --> 00:28:56,150
-Your dad looks so young.
-Don't be silly.

453
00:28:56,230 --> 00:28:57,940
I'll come find you later.

454
00:28:58,610 --> 00:28:59,940
Over here.

455
00:29:00,610 --> 00:29:02,030
Hello!

456
00:29:03,580 --> 00:29:06,330
How much is a lighter?

457
00:29:06,580 --> 00:29:07,910
On the house.

458
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:09,540
Why so generous today?

459
00:29:09,620 --> 00:29:10,290
Thanks.

460
00:29:10,420 --> 00:29:11,920
She's going to Mei Lin Garden?

461
00:29:14,170 --> 00:29:15,750
Miss Wang.

462
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:16,630
Lu Meilin.

463
00:29:16,630 --> 00:29:17,500
You're here.

464
00:29:17,550 --> 00:29:18,500
Mr. Fan.

465
00:29:18,510 --> 00:29:19,760
Hello.

466
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,760
He's here for
his mother-in-law's birthday.

467
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,260
-Take good care of them.
-Of course. See how packed we are?

468
00:29:25,260 --> 00:29:26,970
I still saved a room just for you.

469
00:29:26,970 --> 00:29:28,680
Jiangxi, take them in.

470
00:29:28,850 --> 00:29:30,100
Quickly.

471
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:32,520
Madame,

472
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,480
what's the plan with Miss Wang?

473
00:29:34,810 --> 00:29:37,650
Don't give her the room
if you don't see Mr. Bao.

474
00:29:37,780 --> 00:29:38,320
Okay.

475
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,490
<i>ONE HOUR LATER</i>

476
00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:43,990
Excuse me, young lady.

477
00:29:43,990 --> 00:29:46,820
What's going on?
The room is still occupied?

478
00:29:46,950 --> 00:29:50,000
-We've been waiting for an hour.
-It's yours as soon as it's free.

479
00:29:50,500 --> 00:29:51,660
-Hello, Madame.
-Lu Meilin.

480
00:29:51,660 --> 00:29:52,960
-Wait a minute.
-What's going on?

481
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:54,880
It's already six,
why can't we get the room?

482
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,130
Relax. Wait a second.

483
00:29:56,170 --> 00:29:57,420
How's the food?

484
00:29:57,420 --> 00:29:58,340
Great.

485
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,130
Hurry up with the orders.

486
00:30:00,130 --> 00:30:02,800
I don't understand what we're waiting for.

487
00:30:03,300 --> 00:30:04,430
Mr. Bao.

488
00:30:06,890 --> 00:30:09,470
I figured if you were coming,
Mr. Bao had to be here too.

489
00:30:09,470 --> 00:30:12,480
I put the reservation under his name.

490
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,140
Madame, do you have a room?

491
00:30:14,270 --> 00:30:16,980
Hold on, I'll be there. Jeez.

492
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,230
See how popular my rooms are?

493
00:30:19,230 --> 00:30:21,110
Still, I saved one for Mr. Bao.

494
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,860
I made the phone call.

495
00:30:22,900 --> 00:30:25,160
I reserved the room under my name.

496
00:30:26,570 --> 00:30:28,280
Mom, why don't I go in and check?

497
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,620
Okay.

498
00:30:38,670 --> 00:30:41,090
Mom, there is an empty room here.

499
00:30:41,090 --> 00:30:42,130
Come on.

500
00:30:42,130 --> 00:30:43,010
There's a room?

501
00:30:43,010 --> 00:30:44,300
Quick.

502
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:45,930
There's a room.

503
00:30:45,930 --> 00:30:46,880
Quick.

504
00:30:46,890 --> 00:30:48,050
Let's go inside.

505
00:30:48,140 --> 00:30:51,060
You hear how my stocks are doing?
Not bad, right?

506
00:30:53,310 --> 00:30:55,350
What's going on here?

507
00:30:55,350 --> 00:30:56,600
This isn't your room.

508
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,270
You need to leave.

509
00:30:58,270 --> 00:30:59,360
Why are you in here?

510
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,110
Who are you?

511
00:31:00,190 --> 00:31:01,610
Who am I?

512
00:31:01,650 --> 00:31:03,480
-I own this restaurant.
-So what?

513
00:31:03,490 --> 00:31:04,900
We're just here to eat.

514
00:31:04,900 --> 00:31:06,450
This isn't your room.

515
00:31:06,450 --> 00:31:07,160
Get out.

516
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:08,990
-Don't touch her!
-I didn't touch her.

517
00:31:08,990 --> 00:31:11,580
You all need to leave.

518
00:31:11,580 --> 00:31:12,660
You hit me!

519
00:31:12,660 --> 00:31:15,120
I hit you? Don't be ridiculous.

520
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:16,790
When did I hit you?

521
00:31:16,790 --> 00:31:18,210
-Honey!
-All of you, out.

522
00:31:18,210 --> 00:31:19,710
-What do you want?
-He hit me.

523
00:31:19,710 --> 00:31:20,670
Take this.

524
00:31:20,670 --> 00:31:21,880
-What the hell?
-What?

525
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:23,500
Why did you hit her?
You know who this is?

526
00:31:23,510 --> 00:31:25,090
-Your wife.
-That's right!

527
00:31:25,090 --> 00:31:26,760
-So what?
-You want to fight?

528
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,680
-What do you want?
-You want to fight?

529
00:31:37,770 --> 00:31:38,900
What's going on?

530
00:31:38,900 --> 00:31:39,730
Meilin.

531
00:31:39,860 --> 00:31:41,520
My head is bleeding.

532
00:31:42,230 --> 00:31:43,190
Let me see.

533
00:31:43,190 --> 00:31:44,780
Excuse me.

534
00:31:45,190 --> 00:31:46,070
Who hit you?

535
00:31:46,070 --> 00:31:46,940
This asshole.

536
00:31:46,950 --> 00:31:48,070
I did.

537
00:31:48,070 --> 00:31:49,740
Weren't you acting all tough?

538
00:31:49,740 --> 00:31:51,780
Didn't you hit my mother-in-law?

539
00:31:54,830 --> 00:31:56,120
-Did you hit him?
-Yes.

540
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,580
-You hit him?
-That's what I said!

541
00:31:58,580 --> 00:31:59,830
Don't move.

542
00:31:59,960 --> 00:32:00,830
You too!

543
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,290
Call the police!

544
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:04,840
There's no need.

545
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:06,880
He didn't mean it.
It's a misunderstanding.

546
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,760
Look at his head.

547
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,430
It's covered in blood.

548
00:32:10,430 --> 00:32:11,470
Let me explain--

549
00:32:11,470 --> 00:32:14,600
He hit his head himself.
Who knew your man was made of tofu?

550
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,180
-You stay right there.
-I will.

551
00:32:16,220 --> 00:32:19,690
Unless I say so,
nobody leaves Mei Lin Garden!

552
00:32:19,690 --> 00:32:21,520
Oh yeah? Just stop me.

553
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,270
You can't leave.

554
00:32:23,270 --> 00:32:24,610
What are you doing?

555
00:32:24,610 --> 00:32:25,570
Stop that!

556
00:32:25,570 --> 00:32:26,740
Let go!

557
00:32:26,740 --> 00:32:29,660
You lowlifes don't belong
on Huanghe Road.

558
00:32:29,660 --> 00:32:31,070
-Watch your mouth!
-You're pathetic.

559
00:32:31,070 --> 00:32:32,910
-What did you say?
-All you bastards.

560
00:32:32,910 --> 00:32:34,870
You want a fight? I'll give you one.

561
00:32:34,870 --> 00:32:37,000
-Let's see it.
-I'll make sure you

562
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,330
spend this birthday in jail.

563
00:32:39,330 --> 00:32:40,370
Bring it on.

564
00:32:44,500 --> 00:32:49,220
Your mother is going to pass out.

565
00:32:50,510 --> 00:32:52,550
-Is my guest here yet?
-Upstairs.

566
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:53,640
What's happening?

567
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,300
Miss Wang is fighting...

568
00:32:55,310 --> 00:32:56,600
What's going on?

569
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:59,180
Miss Wang and Lu Meilin are fighting.

570
00:33:02,770 --> 00:33:04,860
I'm sorry, Mr. Jin.

571
00:33:05,110 --> 00:33:06,780
He's not usually like this.

572
00:33:06,780 --> 00:33:08,280
Don't touch me!

573
00:33:14,870 --> 00:33:16,160
Lu Meilin.

574
00:33:16,370 --> 00:33:19,500
Why don't you let them go?
I'll go with you to the police station.

575
00:33:19,500 --> 00:33:22,670
Young lady, that's a good joke.

576
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:23,960
What is this?

577
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,880
A negotiation?

578
00:33:26,130 --> 00:33:30,130
Well then, I slap you as payback,
and I'll let them go.

579
00:33:30,130 --> 00:33:33,800
-Don't you dare!
-Stop, settle down.

580
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,470
Don't be angry.

581
00:33:35,470 --> 00:33:37,010
Say it nicely.

582
00:33:37,010 --> 00:33:38,260
Mr. Bao is here.

583
00:33:38,270 --> 00:33:41,890
What's all this excitement about?

584
00:33:44,860 --> 00:33:46,190
What's going on?

585
00:33:47,070 --> 00:33:48,900
This has nothing to do with you.

586
00:33:48,900 --> 00:33:50,110
You should go.

587
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:52,780
What happened to your hand?

588
00:34:01,290 --> 00:34:03,790
I hear someone reserved a room for me.

589
00:34:05,130 --> 00:34:08,800
Mr. Bao, you're finally here?

590
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:10,420
This is perfect.

591
00:34:10,590 --> 00:34:12,010
You can be the judge.

592
00:34:12,340 --> 00:34:13,630
Miss Wang

593
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,890
brought this thug to my restaurant,

594
00:34:16,010 --> 00:34:17,680
who kicked my husband around.

595
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:19,560
What do you think we should do?

596
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:21,180
Who knew your man was made of tofu?

597
00:34:21,180 --> 00:34:23,640
Hey pal, can you pipe down?
Save it for the police.

598
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:24,560
I'm not scared.

599
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:25,640
Mr. Bao,

600
00:34:26,060 --> 00:34:28,900
Miss Wang doesn't want me
to call the police.

601
00:34:29,070 --> 00:34:31,860
Fine by me. We go way back.

602
00:34:32,490 --> 00:34:35,450
But Huanghe Road has its rules.

603
00:34:35,570 --> 00:34:38,410
This is a slap in my face.
I have to return the favor.

604
00:34:38,620 --> 00:34:40,280
Enough.

605
00:34:40,290 --> 00:34:42,290
She wasn't who hit your husband.

606
00:34:42,500 --> 00:34:43,870
It's someone's birthday.

607
00:34:43,870 --> 00:34:45,540
Why make a scene?

608
00:34:45,620 --> 00:34:48,380
Do me a favor, and let this go?

609
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,380
I'd love to do Mr. Bao a favor.

610
00:34:52,550 --> 00:34:56,010
But look, see how badly he's hurt?

611
00:34:56,090 --> 00:34:57,890
What about my dignity?

612
00:34:58,010 --> 00:34:59,850
What about the dignity of this place?

613
00:35:02,310 --> 00:35:04,430
-You want to slap me?
-That's right.

614
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:05,520
Enough.

615
00:35:05,730 --> 00:35:06,980
How about this?

616
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,070
I'll take the slap. That should suffice.

617
00:35:11,070 --> 00:35:13,190
What? You have nothing to do with this.

618
00:35:22,790 --> 00:35:24,250
You must be joking.

619
00:35:24,250 --> 00:35:25,120
I don't joke.

620
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:27,750
On Huanghe Road,
who would dare hit Mr. Bao?

621
00:35:28,630 --> 00:35:29,880
For real?

622
00:35:32,420 --> 00:35:33,550
Happy?

623
00:35:59,950 --> 00:36:04,790
How dare you? How dare you hit him?

624
00:36:59,590 --> 00:37:00,680
That's enough.

625
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:03,930
It's okay.

626
00:37:04,180 --> 00:37:05,260
Stop crying.

627
00:37:05,720 --> 00:37:07,220
I didn't...

628
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,640
I didn't want to always rely on you.

629
00:37:10,390 --> 00:37:14,860
I didn't want people to always
associate Miss Wang with Mr. Bao.

630
00:37:15,780 --> 00:37:19,150
But somehow,
you still got hurt because of me.

631
00:37:21,490 --> 00:37:23,110
When you're in trouble,

632
00:37:24,490 --> 00:37:26,370
you can come to me for help.

633
00:37:26,540 --> 00:37:27,910
It's normal.

634
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,750
If you overthink it and hesitate,

635
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,330
people will take advantage of you.

636
00:37:34,460 --> 00:37:37,300
To think that after all this time,

637
00:37:37,300 --> 00:37:40,840
I can't even book a private room
under my own name.

638
00:37:41,420 --> 00:37:43,010
You know Huanghe Road.

639
00:37:43,550 --> 00:37:46,680
You're seen as a wallet, not a person.
You know that.

640
00:37:49,890 --> 00:37:51,350
One day,

641
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:57,020
people will recognize a Miss Wang
who doesn't depend on Mr. Bao.

642
00:37:57,730 --> 00:38:01,320
Who reserves rooms for her own business.

643
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:07,910
She slapped you today.

644
00:38:11,870 --> 00:38:14,500
When I come back to Huanghe Road,

645
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,920
I'll make her pay.

646
00:38:22,010 --> 00:38:23,470
I don't need that.

647
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:36,690
I do.

648
00:38:47,780 --> 00:38:49,200
I'm sorry.

649
00:39:59,650 --> 00:40:05,150
<i>The towers of Shanghai
sank further into the black of night.</i>

650
00:40:05,150 --> 00:40:10,240
<i>Their silhouettes grew short and dim,
until they no longer shined.</i>

651
00:40:13,240 --> 00:40:14,950
It's pouring.

652
00:40:15,700 --> 00:40:17,160
You're really not going back?

653
00:40:17,290 --> 00:40:18,000
Nope.

654
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:19,330
Why not?

655
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:24,170
At first you were itching to leave.

656
00:40:24,210 --> 00:40:26,260
Now that your name's been cleared,

657
00:40:26,300 --> 00:40:27,920
you won't go back.

658
00:40:28,130 --> 00:40:29,510
I don't care.

659
00:40:29,720 --> 00:40:31,300
I've always been innocent.

660
00:40:31,300 --> 00:40:32,890
There was nothing to clear.

661
00:40:32,930 --> 00:40:35,430
Miss Wang, let me tell you.

662
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:39,230
My grandfather used to say,
"Everyone has his own dock."

663
00:40:39,230 --> 00:40:41,900
Here in Hongkou, the port is our arena.

664
00:40:41,900 --> 00:40:43,110
Understand?

665
00:40:43,190 --> 00:40:46,360
Most of us can barely read,
but you're a person of culture.

666
00:40:46,570 --> 00:40:47,990
You arena isn't here.

667
00:40:48,070 --> 00:40:49,900
It's at No. 27.

668
00:40:49,900 --> 00:40:53,580
No. 27 is not my dock.
Why can't I be my own dock?

669
00:40:53,700 --> 00:40:55,660
-What about Mr. Bao?
-No!

670
00:40:59,660 --> 00:41:02,380
I am my own dock.

671
00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:18,600
Careful not to let it slip!

672
00:42:23,710 --> 00:42:24,710
Harder.

673
00:42:24,710 --> 00:42:27,460
Pull! Almost there.

674
00:42:27,460 --> 00:42:28,500
That's good.

675
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:29,840
Careful.

676
00:42:34,300 --> 00:42:36,220
You okay? How's your hand?

677
00:42:36,430 --> 00:42:37,550
I'm fine.

678
00:42:41,140 --> 00:42:43,100
<i>"Wang MingZhu"</i>

679
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:06,210
What are you doing?

680
00:43:06,460 --> 00:43:07,880
Don't slack off.

681
00:43:10,300 --> 00:43:12,090
-Is that good?
-Further in.

682
00:43:12,630 --> 00:43:13,420
How about now?

683
00:43:13,420 --> 00:43:14,130
Good.

684
00:43:14,130 --> 00:43:15,380
Are you sure?

685
00:43:15,380 --> 00:43:16,550
Go ahead.

686
00:43:25,100 --> 00:43:26,770
Hurry up over there.

687
00:44:05,060 --> 00:44:06,390
-It's all here.
-Thank you.

688
00:44:06,390 --> 00:44:08,020
-I'll walk you out.
-No need.

689
00:44:11,620 --> 00:44:12,570
Listen,

690
00:44:12,570 --> 00:44:14,610
I've met all sorts of people.

691
00:44:15,030 --> 00:44:16,530
Miss Wang, you're special!

692
00:44:16,530 --> 00:44:19,070
Don't call me Miss Wang. Call me Wang.

693
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:20,320
Wang of Hongkou.

694
00:44:20,370 --> 00:44:21,990
I'll be back to visit you.

695
00:44:25,620 --> 00:44:29,080
Wang of Hongkou, remember,
don't embarrass me!

696
00:44:38,050 --> 00:44:39,630
Thank you!
