Episode 27

Did you reach him?

Miss Zhou,

I still couldn’t

reach that supplier.

It's alright.

I'll find a new supplier.

Ok, Miss Zhou.

I’ll wait for your news.

Ok.

The sales volume of

independent designer brands

has been stunning over the past years.

But at the same time,

many quality problems

also emerged on various websites.

Some buyers even want to

sue the sellers.

For example,

after buying a piece of clothes

from an online store,

Mrs. Liu from Zhejiang

started to have a rash.

She went to the hospital and learned that

it was caused by the poor quality of the clothes.

According to our sources,

this online store is selling

a new female fashion brand.

The designer

was selected in a show...

Hello?

Hello, is this Miss Zhou Fang speaking?

Yes.

I’m a reporter from “Today's News”.

We’ve received complaints

about the quality of your products.

Many consumers are starting

to have allergic reactions.

May I ask,

is that true?

Hello?

[Brand of Chuangpinnet exposed to have serious quality problems, investigation by relevant departments underway]

Fang,

the news seems to be

referring to us.

Don't worry.

Take it easy.

But many buyers

have requested a return.

Then approve their requests.

If there’s really a problem

with our clothes,

then we can’t let more people

wear them.

I've asked

people from the factory

to contact the supplier.

But we couldn’t reach them.

Probably it’s

the supplier's problem.

What now then?

You can handle the buyers’ requests.

Leave the rest to me.

I’ll find out what happened.

Don’t worry about it.

Ok.

[Mrs. Liu “The doctor said the allergic reaction was caused by the clothes.”]

You know what?

Bad news really has wings.

What's wrong with the PR department?

Why don't they do something?

The news is everywhere now.

Right!

It's not because our people are slow,

or those reporters

have a good nose for news,

it’s all because of Zhou Fang.

She’s really good at

making trouble.

Why didn’t you answer my call?

Why do you come here?

I came to admit my mistake.

All the products

were sold by me.

I should take full responsibility.

Plus, this might harm

the interests of Wanfeng Group.

So,

you don't need to

take my side.

You should put the company’s interests first.

Don't worry.

I know what to do.

You can go back first.

It’s my mistake.

I’ll make up for it.

Don't take the blame for me.

I know.

This is also my promise to you.

I’ll protect you well.

Just go back.

What’s your plan then?

Mr. Song.

Chen Chen, send her back.

Don't worry.

You can go home

if you fail to send her home.

Mr. Song, I...

Miss Zhou,

don’t make it difficult for me.

Please go back.

Don't think too much.

Don't run around.

Wait for me at home.

You should know

why I asked you here today.

Chen Chen, brief us about it.

Ok.

The investigation shows that

the cause of the allergic problems

is the excessive amount of allergenic dyes

used in fabric dyeing.

They can cause contact dermatitis.

Long-term skin exposure to them

may even cause cancer.

So this matter is of

grave importance.

Mr. Song has sent people

to investigate the dye factory,

hoping to find the root cause a.s.a.p.

As a clothing company

that’s building its

fashion brands,

the clothes we made

have caused health problems

for the consumers,

this is a very serious problem.

I think people will

keep pursuing this problem.

I’d like to hear your opinions.

Mr. Song.

I think the top priority now

is to recall the products,

and negotiate with the consumers.

We’d better compensate them in private

and mitigate the situation as much as possible.

We mustn’t

bring trouble to ourselves.

The brand operator

wasn’t operating things properly.

It was their fault.

They should take full responsibility.

We must

take a clear stand.

We mustn’t involve Wanfeng Group

in this matter.

We need to send a clear message

to the consumers that

it was the brand operator's fault.

Our brand has once been removed

from the website

because of the plagiarism accusation.

Then it was put online again.

But now we have a more serious problem.

The shareholders won't let this go.

So,

we must make a quick decision.

Otherwise, we’ll lose control of the situation

if things continue escalating.

You talked about making compensation,

and taking a clear stand.

But that won’t

address the root cause.

If the root cause still exists,

similar problems will arise again

in the future.

What should we do then?

I think we should address

the current problem first.

As for the root cause...

Mr. Song,

since it’s just us here,

I'll get right to the point.

I think you're being too kind.

We can play tit for tat

and get back at them.

I don't see a problem with that.

If Baisai really

has something to do with this,

I actually know a way to strike back.

Baisai Group

is a listed company.

They’re more careful

of their reputation.

If they

compete with us

by illegitimate means,

we can resort to law

and accuse them of

unfair competition,

so that they’ll be punished.

Even if things are clarified later,

their stock prices

would have been affected.

At the same time,

with this scandal,

Baisai will suffer a setback

that’s absolutely irreversible.

[Wanfeng Group Chuangpinnet]

Sorry.

I’m late.

Don’t worry.

We’ll

win this battle very soon.

What’s your plan?

Did you

orchestrate this?

Now everyone in Wanfeng Group

is panic-stricken.

We can take this chance to buy

over a half of its shares.

Then, no company

in China will be strong enough

to be our competitor.

After this acquisition,

let’s take a break,

is that ok?

Happy birthday.

Do you like it?

Thank you.

You can go rest.

I still have a little work to do.

Why’re you here?

I knew you have nowhere to go,

and you don't want to go home.

Let’s get a drink somewhere.

Ok.

What’re you thinking?

Trying to sort out my mind.

Mencius said that

to invest a man with great responsibilities,

Heaven will first try his resolve,

and exhaust his muscles and bones.

You're on the way of becoming successful.

You do know how to comfort people.

You know what?

I don't want to

involve Song Lin in this.

Maybe someone was trying to

set me up,

or maybe I was just unlucky.

But he just charged forward

to handle it for me.

I think this is unfair.

It’s not unfair at all.

Isn’t it good

to have a man

to protect you?

I still think this is unfair.

This world

is unfair.

Men and women are supposed

to do different things.

It's all because he loves you so much.

It’s not about love.

It’s just that he’s

always tried to protect me at the front.

He should be treated fairly.

You’re just caring about him.

What exactly do you see in him

that makes you

so fascinated by him?

What’s with the look?

What look?

What are you thinking then?

What are you thinking?

Let's go back.

You're so eager to see him.

Alright.

You’re back.

Yeah.

Are you tired?

I’m very tired.

You’re so heavy.

Sit and get some rest.

I’ll get you a cup of water.

Here.

Sit down.

Like this.

It’s very comfortable.

Song Lin,

actually I can

handle this by myself.

This whole thing

is about the brand.

But if you deal with it personally,

both Chuangpinnet and Wanfeng Group

will probably get affected.

I know.

Then you should be rational

and stay out of this.

If the result of being rational

is losing you,

then I’d rather being crazy.

Don't worry.

I’ll protect you this time.

You’re up.

Did you forget that

you have a sister?

What nonsense?

You should go to school now.

I'm leaving.

Don't be late.

Bye-bye.

Chen Chen,

how soon can we get

the test result?

It’ll take

at least a week.

That’s too slow.

We can't afford to wait.

Well then,

I’ll ask a friend for help.

You can

contact the consumers.

I’ll talk about compensation

with them.

Mr. Song,

there’s no need for you

to do this personally.

We need to show our sincerity.

Ok. I understand.

I don't want my life to be perfect.

There’s only one regret

that I don't want to have in my life,

which is he doesn't love me.

I can understand

how you feel.

But this is life.

I think you should

talk more

with your friends

or your husband

when you're less busy.

It’ll be good

for your relationship.

If there was someone

I can talk to,

then I wouldn’t come here

to receive psychotherapy.

I wait for him every day

at home.

I want to talk with him

after he comes back,

even for a minute.

I would even feel happy

if he

scolded me.

Do you understand?

I know how you feel.

But Miss Lin,

I think you should

also bring your husband here

when you have time.

Hello, Fang.

Are you ok?

I’m fine.

I want to ask you to do something.

What is it?

I wrote a letter of apology.

I’m not sure

if it's well-drafted.

Can you help me take a look?

You want to make a public apology?

I think you can take a wait-and-see attitude.

If you apologize at this time,

I’m afraid the consumers

will put the blame on you

and ask for compensation.

I don’t want to wait anymore.

And I don’t mind compensating them.

Someone has to

apologize for this.

What’s more,

I have to

deal with this myself.

Otherwise, more people will get involved.

You just don’t want to involve Song Lin.

Why’re you here?

A letter of apology?

I don't agree.

I have a plan.

Someone has to

apologize for this.

I’m in charge

of this studio.

If I didn’t

take responsibility for it,

then how could I

explain things to my employees

and the consumers in the future?

I know you care about me.

But if we correct it this time,

then next time,

we won’t make

the same mistake.

Never do this again.

It won’t happen again.

Let me take a look.

Take a look at what?

The letter of apology.

Here.

So sincere.

Of course.

This year, there’ve been

several incidents

that harmed Wanfeng’s reputation.

This is an

undeniable fact.

We all know that

any small misstep

may ruin a company.

If this goes on,

I'm afraid

we’ll lose our money.

I agree.

Nowadays, the global economy

is less stable.

And the competition in all the industries

is growing more intense.

That’s also part of the reason

for this incident.

But if we don’t take measures,

Wanfeng's reputation

will be ruined sooner or later.

The resources are limited

in every industry.

Compared to competing with each other,

joining hands might be a better choice.

I think

we can reconsider

the acquisition plan

I mentioned before.

We should sell our shares

before the price plummets.

Everyone here knows

Wanfeng’s business plan

for these several years.

And we’re actually doing great

in overseas markets.

Why sell the shares now?

Mr. Song,

don’t blame us.

In the past few years,

the global economy hasn’t been very stable.

We think that,

only by getting more cash

can we feel

safer.

Baisai is the only company

within the industry

that has the ability

to acquire Wanfeng.

Now they want to buy our shares,

I think this is a great opportunity

for us to join hands with each other.

Isn't it great?

Both Wanfeng and Baisai

are clothing companies.

But our business scopes

are completely different.

Baisai specializes in

introducing top foreign brands

to the domestic market

and opening flagship stores

in the shopping malls.

While Wanfeng

has been focusing on

designer brands

in the domestic market.

We want to

sell the products

designed by Chinese designers

to the world.

This is what we’re doing.

Plus,

by cooperating with them,

we’re not

becoming partners,

we’re actually giving

our market share to them.

With all due respect, Mr. Song,

I think that you’ve also changed

over the past few years.

You became indecisive

and made wrong judgments

many times.

Do you really care about

the company and the shareholders’

interests?

I disagree with you.

It's true that we invested some money

and hold some shares of Wanfeng,

but it’s Mr. Song and his team

that are working

at the front line.

Without Mr. Song,

can we earn the money

we earned over the years?

Did the money fall from the sky?

Right.

Mr. Song's very hardworking.

We all know that.

He’s wise,

and resolute.

Otherwise, we wouldn’t have

invested in Wanfeng,

right?

Right.

But a successful investor

knows when to withdraw his investment.

For me, I’d like to sell my shares

before the prices go down.

However, come to think of it,

Mr. Song

is currently the largest shareholder

of Wanfeng Group,

if we only sell

a small number of shares,

nothing will

actually change

for Mr. Song.

Am I right?

Unless we sell more shares

than the shares you own.

However,

that sounds impossible.

[Official apology made by seller behind the dyes contamination incident, will the consumers accept it?]

Really?

What’s going on?

Zhou Fang,

I just saw

a letter of apology online.

What’s going on?

I’m Zhou Fang,

TKY Shop’s

chief designer

and brand operator.

A few days ago, we received complaints

about the quality of several types

of clothes in our studio.

We’re doing our best

to find the root cause.

Before we have an answer,

I want to sincerely apologize

to all of our consumers

and all people that have been

supporting our brand.

Also, I want to apologize to

Chuangpinnet and Wanfeng Group.

They’ve been constantly

giving their support to us.

No matter what the root cause is,

it’s a mistake we made.

Our management

didn’t follow the strictest inspection procedures

and let contaminated raw materials

enter the market.

I’m very sorry.

Meanwhile, I’ll do everything possible

[Person-in-charge behind the cloth contamination incident made a public apology]

to make up for your losses.

I also hope that

you can give me a chance

to correct this mistake.

From now on,

I’ll be doubly careful,

and will never

let this happen again.

You have my word.

Mr. Song,

don’t be so angry.

Zhou Fang

was a bit rash today,

but she only did this

to help restore our reputation.

Although she's

in a desperate situation,

she still did this for you.

She’s quite honorable.

Honorable?

Running business is not like

wandering in the Jianghu world.

Being honorable won’t solve the problem.

If she didn't apologize today,

I’m afraid you’d be the one

who has to do that.

Ok.

Give me a call

if you need my help.

Thank you, Attorney Shen.

I’m just doing my job.

It’s my pleasure.

I’m off then.

Ok. See you.

How did the talk go?

You have to

sue the supplier.

Mr. Song

is investigating this.

He will sue them

if it’s necessary.

We have to parade them

through the streets.

It's their problem.

But we’ve become their scapegoat.

You’re right.

I was careless.

We have to

let our own people

handle the most important parts

in the future.

Building a brand

is like learning how to walk.

It's normal to fall over.

All brands

have met their own problems,

right?

So,

what's important is

how we deal with it.

Since the opening

of our studio,

everyone has been working hard.

There’s nothing we can’t overcome.

I did some research

on quality inspection

of the dyeing section.

Problems tend to occur

in this process.

On one hand,

I want to say sorry to you.

On the other hand,

I want to say sorry to the consumers.

They never thought

the clothes they buy

have such problems.

I wouldn’t be happy too if I were them.

I’ve told

our colleagues.

If the buyers want to

return or change the clothes,

we’ll approve their requests.

Besides,

if I need to

talk with them in person,

I’ll also be there and compensate them.

That’s the least we can do.

You have to handle so many things recently.

Thank you.

Don't worry.

Let's work hard together.

Everything will be okay.

We can do it.

Then I’m off.

Alright.

Have you eaten?

Yes.

How about you?

Here.

My sister poured water for me!

What a treat!

The water my sister poured

tastes even better!

Come on!

You didn't

look very well recently.

It’s normal

to encounter difficulties

in our lives.

But you’re so capable.

You can handle it.

Luoluo,

I think you’ve become

more sensible.

You even started to care about me.

You’re my brother.

Of course I should care about you.

Alright.

I’ll go do my homework.

Don't stay up late.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Let's talk a walk.

Ok.

Trying to act tough again?

Don't blame me this time.

I don't want to

stay out of trouble

every time

and wait for you to charge forward

and solve the problem for me.

I also want to share your burden.

What kind of girlfriend

is this?

Seems you’re more like my buddy

than my girlfriend.

You found out after all.

I can’t hide this from you anymore.

You should keep me in the dark forever.

Didn't we say

we’ll share the burden together?

Buddy!

Stop it.

I know you want to protect me.

You want me to feel

it's safe to be by your side.

But what I want to tell you is

I can also protect you.

When something

makes you unhappy,

uncomfortable,

or even a little upset,

you can show it to me.

I’m okay with it.

What I want to see

is not the vigorous

and resolute you in business,

but a real and complete you in life.

Good morning.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Mr. Song is here.

Please sit.

Sit. Sit.

Thank you so much

for making the time

to come here today.

It’s our pleasure.

You know

what will happen

if we don't unite

at a time like this.

Right, Mr. Song.

Now they’ve

turned to Baisai,

I'm afraid they’re planning a hostile takeover.

We must

think of something.

A bunch of ungrateful things!

Don’t they remember

how Wanfeng make it to this point?

Right, Mr. Song.

How do you plan to deal with this?

We absolutely support you.

Judging by what I see,

if they really want to

buy our shares maliciously,

then from my point of view,

I’ll have to buy

as many shares as I can

in the shortest possible time

to maintain my proportion of shares.

I wonder

how you think of

my proposal.

Everyone,

any problem with

the share transfer contract?

It’s good.

No problem.

Then,

you can sign it.

Ok.

[Party B Zhao Jun]

Thank you, everyone.

I look forward to working with you.

We look forward to working with you too.

Thank you, Mr. Su.

-Hope we can work well together. -Hope we can work well together.

If it isn't Miss Zhou Fang!

Dad!

What brings you here?

Why didn't you call me?

How long have you been sitting there?

You think I’m that stupid?

I just came several minutes ago.

Where's Mom?

Your mom also wanted to come.

But I persuaded her to stay at home.

Great, let’s go inside.

Mrs. Cheng,

sorry, I’m late.

I came early.

Hello.

Hello.

What would you like to drink?

A cup of water for me

and an Americano

for Mrs. Cheng.

She'd prefer deep-roasted

coffee beans.

Ok. I’ll be back in a moment.

Thank you.

You still remember my preference?

Of course I will.

You're leading

a quality life.

So your brand

has been leading

the fashion industry.

I'm getting old.

This market

will become an arena

for young people.

I didn’t expect

you’d make

such huge progress

after you leave the company.

That’s because

you helped me enter this profession.

You are a good teacher.

You gave April to me,

but I haven’t been able to

deliver a satisfying result

to you yet.

The business world changes constantly.

A temporary setback

doesn't mean anything.

Right, Xiaosong,

how many shares of Wanfeng

do you still own?

I own

38% of the shares.

Does that include mine?

No.

Wanfeng's shares

mean a lot to you.

Now you have

43%.

Dad,

here, have some tea.

Currently,

the situation

might appear a bit messy,

but everything is

in my control.

You can use your wits

to turn the tide.

Since when did you become a strategist?

Are you confident?

Of course.

Besides,

it’s not only me

who’s working on it.

My team

are also helping me.

All of them are

trying to think of a way for me.

I’m very grateful for this.

Horses for courses.

You’re better than me in this regard.

I like your confidence.

Sometimes you have to

personally experience something

to get new viewpoints.

What does it say in the song?

Rainbows only appear

after thunderstorms.

Right!

Actually,

I just came to the realization that

everything

I went through

was helping me to grow.

Just like what you said,

it’s not necessarily a bad thing

to encounter setbacks.

Each setback is meant

to be there to teach you something.

What’s more,

if I really

can’t hang on anymore,

I can always turn to you and Mom.

I’d become so full of energy

every time when I thought of this.

You won't kick me outside,

right?

Good.

If you say so,

I’ll feel relieved.

It's very late.

I have to go back.

Why the rush?

Your mom is still

waiting for my report.

Alright.

Be careful on the road.

It’s a deal then.

Go home at weekend.

I’ll cook for you.

Ok.

I’m off.

I’ll see you off.

Just don't.

Mrs. Cheng,

you’re willing to help me

at a time like this.

Thank you very much.

That’s because I see talent in you

and I approve of your character.

You’re not like other young men.

Nowadays, very few young men

know how to be

grateful.

I can hardly meet a person

that’s upright like you.

I believe

you’ll amount to something

in the future.

Sometimes,

there won’t be many choices

left for you.

Come to think about it,

if I had used some strategies

back then,

I wouldn’t have come to

the circumstances of today.

Remember,

what you do today

will pay off.

The road may be bumpy

if you want to

maintain a clear conscience,

but you’ll be able to go further.

It seems Su Yushan

pulled a lot of tricks on you.

So many years have passed.

I have gotten over it,

but he’s still being trapped inside.

I also didn’t expect

he’s still after April.

Mrs. Cheng, rest assured.

I’ll make April thrive,

and take it to the next level.

You two are rivals.

But he indeed

has deep affection

for my daughter.

Alright.

What's past is past.

Let's talk about you.

I heard you’re in a relationship?

How come you know everything!

Bring her to see me.

I surely will.

I was about to do that.

Mr. Su,

these are all the contracts

for this acquisition.

Several new contracts

still need your signature.

Mr. Su,

we purchased

Wanfeng's shares at a high price,

is it really worth it?

Don't worry. You can leave now.

Mr. Song.

How come you're here?

Mr. Song.

Let’s go to the office.

Mr. Song, it’s really urgent.

Let’s keep it short.

How many shares are you holding now?

43%.

I’ve been asking about

the situation on their side.

Several shareholders are remaining neutral.

Several shareholders

have sold their shares

to Su Yushan.

Thing are not going

in your favor.

Don't worry.

I’m prepared

for the worst scenario.

Mr. Song,

if Su Yushan

became the majority shareholder

of Wanfeng,

what should we do?

Should we work out a way

before it’s too late?

Thank you.

For what?

Thank you

for siding with me.

You may go back.

Mr. Song.
