According to

data from

Suicide Worldwide in 2019

published on the official website

of the World Health Organization,

over 700,000 people worldwide

die from suicide every year,

and there is one suicidal death

every 40 seconds.

Even to this day,

suicide

is still one of the primary causes

of human death.

Suicide rates in China

over the past two decades and more

have shown a marked downward trend.

There is an extremely complex web

of causes for suicide.

According to Freud's

psychodynamic theory,

suicide is a behavior caused by

inner conflicts

triggered by strong psychological stimuli

an individual has experienced.

On the other hand, research data show that

the causes of suicide

are mainly family relations,

marital disputes,

disagreeable interpersonal relations,

mental disorder and other problems.

Most suicides

show a conflicted state of mind

before they take their own lives.

On the one hand, they long to get rid of

their pains and sufferings in life;

on the other hand, they retain

a desire to survive.

When suicides

show such hesitancy,

in fact,

they are sending a distress signal

to people around them.

Such distress signals

provide

unlimited possibilities

for the prevention of suicide crises.

But once a suicide's signal

is overlooked,

it's very likely to lead to

irreversible consequences.

Life is precious.

Public mental health

must not be overlooked.

If you find

suicidal ideations in yourself

or people around you,

please seek help

from professionals immediately.

You are welcome to call the 24-hour free hotline

of the Psychological Assistance

Crisis Prevention Center of City H

82951332.

We will do our utmost

to provide people concerned

with health counselling,

psychological support,

psychological assistance and other services.

My mom says

it's inauspicious to have a plain white wedding photo.

You are such a mama's boy.

Take it or leave it.

Forget it if you are not gonna take it.

Honey,

my mom says this is not OK.

Are you OK?

Call 120 quickly!

Be quick.

Didn't the director veto

Mr. Yang's proposal

to tilt the investment

towards AI last time?

Why did he suddenly propose it again?

I'm not sure about the specifics.

But this time, Mr. Yang

has brought the city officials here for an inspection.

An inspection?

I'd say it's endorsement.

By the way,

is He Dun here?

She got here early.

Mr. Yang

knows he's secured the investors.

He just won't give up.

Hello.

This is Yunkai Psychological Rescue Center

of City H.

I understand

it makes you despair.

Can you move to

a safe place?

What do you think the death of your family member

mean to you?

Inside is our

hotline office

which I put under 24-hour monitor.

Director.

This is Director Ding.

This is Mr. Wang,

head of department of

our Suicide Intervention Center.

Hello, Director Ding.

You come right in time.

Hello.

Please brief Director Ding right away.

OK.

Hello.

Can you hear me?

Hello.

This is Yunkai Psychological Recue Center

of City H.

How can I help?

I want to jump to my death.

Where are you now?

You guys don't have to come to me.

It's like this.

Now we

must make sure

you are in a safe place

at the moment.

I'm on the rooftop.

Rooftop?

Which part of the rooftop?

Where can she be?

For someone who wants to jump to her death,

every place is a dangerous place.

Hello.

You are speaking to a psychological counselor

of Chinese Psychological Society.

Please put your trust

in my professional ability

to help you.

What kind of help

are you seeking

by calling me for consultation?

I want to kill myself.

Why?

I don't want to tell you.

Then why did you choose

to do it on a special day

like today?

I had a quarrel with others,

but that's a very long story.

It's OK.

I have plenty of patience

and I want to hear you out.

Why did she say she didn't want to answer

when she was asked for the first time

but answer

when asked for the second time?

Director Ding,

this is due to

the advantage of

our AI analysis technology.

If our algorithms

are used to have a sentiment analysis

of the caller's voice,

we can make a quick judgment on

which problem is the most appropriate

to start with.

Director Ding, it's like this.

It was only normal for her

to refuse to answer why for the first time,

since the caller

might have anticipated

we'd ask such a question before she called

and started the psychological defense mechanism.

As to the second question,

why she chose to do it today.

Why did you choose

to do it today?

Actually it's the same question.

But the counselor

added a layer of enquiry logic.

When the caller

was engaged in logical thinking,

she became less emotional

and by doing so she broke down

her psychological defense mechanism before she knew it.

Your voice sounds as if

you are not even 20, are you?

If I have a younger brother or sister,

they may get into

a helpless situation like yours.

If right at this time there is someone

who can listen to their story,

maybe they'll feel much better.

Don't you think so?

Do you have time?

Our hotline

is open 24 hours.

I have plenty of time.

But before that,

you need to move to

a safe place,

so we can keep talking

and we can also have a good chat.

OK?

Kaiyi, where are you?

Just now Miss Chen told me

You Na…

I know.

Don't panic for the moment.

I'm rushing to the school now.

I'll hang up for now.

Sir, the source of signal is found.

Miss Chen.

The police have just arrived.

The police? So fast.

It is said

the Suicide Intervention Rescue Center

notified the police in advance.

Hello.

Hello, sir.

I'm calling from the Suicide Intervention Center.

I am Employee No. 82.

What?

I said please remember my employee number

which is No.82.

How did you know my phone number?

We are running out of time.

Let's cut a long story short.

You Na has just been persuaded to walk away from the rooftop.

Now she's on the way

to the equipment storage room.

But I'm not sure

if she still has a suicidal impulse

or if she has

any dangerous tools on her hands.

Can you manage

to play one of her favorite songs

for her right now?

How much time do I have?

I've got here.

Well done.

Let's just keep ourselves safe.

Why don't they believe me?

I didn't get people to bully Zhe.

I didn't steal things either.

Why don't they believe me?

I want to jump off

to prove to them

they are wrong.

I know very well

how you feel at the moment.

Due to their mistrust,

you feel you are not understood

and not respected, right?

Shall we do this?

Let's play a game.

Let's give a score

to your suicidal impulse.

Zero point means no impulse at all.

100 points

means completely out of your control.

What score would you give

to your suicidal impulse

on the rooftop just now?

95 points.

That was

a very strong impulse.

Even so

you still didn't completely give up

your desire to survive.

What was the 5 points

that made you hesitant to give up your life?

I thought of my parents.

I couldn't imagine

what would become of them

when they saw me killing myself.

Miss Chen, hold on a minute.

I'll be right there.

How much time do I have?

Eight minutes.

Eight minutes at most.

Just imagine,

if you really killed yourself,

do you know

what would become of you?

And what would

become of your parents?

People who really choose

to jump off a high-rise building

will end up dying a terrible death.

The huge impact force

will make your bones pierce through your muscles

and skins.

It'll even be very hard

to recognize your face.

Who's jumping off the building?

Come down quickly!

♫Is the place nearest to the sun called paradise♫

♫With no need to put on a brave face, people are leading a leisurely life♫

♫How many people are lost on their way like me?♫

♫Looking out to another kingdom, wishing to live my life again♫

♫My tears can't stop falling♫

♫Because I almost forget what my home is like♫

♫My sadness urges me to grow♫

♫But one can easily go astray♫

♫When a bird has no wings, who can fly in its stead?♫

♫When there's no fragrance of flowers in the air, who can bloom?♫

♫Real dream is to have the courage to wander♫

♫But my most extravagant hope is to have you by my side♫

♫My tears can't stop falling♫

♫My tears can't stop falling♫

♫Because I almost forget what my home is like♫

♫My sadness urges me to grow♫

♫But one can easily go astray♫

♫My impression of childhood is rising corners of the mouth♫

♫Is a little boat floating and a candy reward♫

♫I'm flustered now out of longing for love♫

♫Because I still have yearning and aspire to meet your eyes♫

♫My tears can't stop falling♫

♫Because I almost forget what my home is like♫

♫My sadness urges me to grow♫

♫But one can easily go astray♫

♫My impression of childhood is rising corners of the mouth♫

♫Is a little boat floating and a candy reward♫

You thought of your parents.

You didn't want to

make them sad, did you?

At this moment,

if you are to give a score

to your suicidal impulse again,

what would it be now?

20 points.

I don't want my parents

to see me killing myself.

But I…

But I'm still very upset.

I know very well how upset you are.

I also hope

I can get to know you more.

But please believe that

apart from me,

there are more people out there

who want to care about you.

You'll hear a knock on the door in a while.

The police will be at the door.

Don't worry.

They are here to help you.

Can you open the door to them?

I'm very happy

to have got your call.

This shows you still wanted to

have emotional communication with others.

But your confusions

and your sufferings

may be very hard

to heal thoroughly

with this call.

This requires you to

have more comprehensive

and systematic psychological counselling offline.

OK?

Thank you, sir.

I hope the next time when you

find yourself in such a situation,

first learn to protect yourself.

When we

are losing control of our emotions,

the first thing we do

is to become aware of it.

Once we are aware of

our emotions,

we can try

a simple method

which is counting numbers

and then calling stop.

One.

One.

Two.

Two.

Three.

Three.

Stop.

You are doing

such a great job.

Director Ding,

as to the questions you asked just now,

our counselor Miss He

will go on to answer them.

Mr. Wang, Director Ding.

If you pardon me for saying so,

we in the business of project management

highly value quantitative strategies.

We are cautious about

those things we can't either see

or touch.

Yes.

Our AI project

actually quantifies sophisticated,

professional work and knowledge

into visual data.

With AI-enabled

crisis intervention,

we'll be able to solve

the problem of

over-reliance on individual ability.

In this way, we can

have all-around marketization

of psychological counselling services.

Mr. Wang,

so far as I know,

the center has quite a high

turnover rate nowadays.

Is that true?

People is what the consulting industry is short of.

Psychological counselors

are the core value.

The high turnover rate

is resulted by the existence of a funding gap.

Miss He,

my question is,

an intervention center

is staffed with a dozen people

and it takes over 40 minutes of waiting time

for a call to be picked up.

Isn't it serving

only a limited number of people?

What's more,

computers are based on algorithm science,

while human beings

tend to have subjective assumptions.

How can you be so confident

that human beings are more science-oriented

and more accurate than computers?

Mr. Yang,

I can't deny the fact that

AI-enabled strategic analysis

has the advantage of data support.

But what we are facing

is a living human being

whose life is hanging by a thread.

How can you be so confident

to pass their last call

for help

to a

lifeless robot

for consulting strategies?

As to this…

All right.

Don't be so tense.

Miss He,

I'm a bit curious.

As to the last thing you mentioned,

number counting,

does it really work that well?

Cognitive neuroscience.

The prefrontal cortex

in our right brain

is responsible for triggering desires and impulses,

while the prefrontal cortex in our left brain

acts the opposite way

by controlling emotions

and desires.

When we use number counting

to increase enquiry logic

and mathematical methods

such as giving a score at a specific time,

the activity of

our left prefrontal cortex is increased,

therefore arousing

our own self-control

and rational thinking.

What about school?

How did you know

the caller was at school?

I heard it.

You heard it?

Play it back for me.

OK.

Nothing.

Where is it?

Mr. Yang,

not every problem

can be solved by algorithms.

Mr. Yang,

psychology is a subject

that combines the attributes of natural science

and social science.

I hope your AI

can be like us,

which is not only a master of theories

but also a mind reader

and a speaker of human language.

Whom are you cursing?

What a sassy young girl!

Mr. Wang,

this…

This is

the counselor just now.

Her full name is He Dun.

Look,

the man next to her

is her supervisor Professor Ji.

Professor Ji Mingcong

is the chairman

of our Psychological Society,

also an authoritative figure

in the academics of psychology.

As a teacher,

you must pay attention to students' mood swings.

Yes, yes. Your instruction is right.

You Na.

How are you feeling now?

The first step, self-awareness.

She says when people

are losing control of their emotions,

becoming aware of the mood shift

is the first step of self-control.

Mr. Qian,

I've made up my mind.

I'm gonna work on this

for the broadcast assignment this week.

Its title is The Uncontrolled Self.

What do you think?

You Na,

are you really OK?

Uh.

I've thought it through.

Even if Mr. Kang keeps avoiding me,

I will not blame him.

He's not avoiding you.

He asks me to stand in for him

because he's busy

with his wedding.

I know.

What about you, Mr. Qian?

Do you believe me?

You Na!

Na…

Yuan.

Hi, Kaiyi.

Thank you so much for what you did today.

How's it going?

Did the student's parents give you a hard time?

I was just about to bring this up.

Although You Na

has calmed down so far,

the doctor said she's

in a very bad condition

and needs psychological intervention.

And her parents said

they'd file a complaint about the school with the education bureau.

File a complaint?

But you've only covered me for three days.

It has nothing to do with you.

The school says

you can take two days off.

You don't have to go in my place.

What are you gonna do then?

I need to write a report

and brief the leaders about the incident.

OK. Let me know

if there's anything

you need my help.

Ouch…

What happened?

I'm OK, I'm OK.

No need to tie it up, auntie.

I can just hold it like this.

These apples

look so fresh.

Even fresher than the ones I bought last time.

Indeed.

Let me scan the code.

Auntie, my cellphone is dead.

I'll go home to fetch some money for you.

It's OK.

It's my treat to Ms. Zhao.

That would be improper.

Ms. Zhao has been a patron to my business

for over ten years.

A few fruits are nothing.

There are also some mangos.

Ms. Zhao likes

this kind of mango best.

Thank you, auntie.

I'll ask my mom

to bring you the money later.

As I said, don't stand on ceremony.

He Dun!

Your mother asked me to leave some meat for her in the morning.

Do you still want it?

I don't know.

Did she ask you to do that?

Yes.

Your mother called me early in the morning

to keep some for her.

Many people asked, but I didn't sell it.

She might have fallen asleep.

I'll go home to check in on her.

He Dun, He Dun.

Take this meat with you.

Thank you.

It's OK.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

It's OK. It's OK.

Thank you.

Sorry, sorry.

It's OK. It's OK.

Sorry.

You scared the hell out of me, mom.

I told you for the umpteenth time

not to sleep with your headphones on,

or you'll be hard of hearing later on.

Did you hear me?

Don't sleep with your headphones on.

Mom…

Mom.

Ms. Zhao has been a patron to my business

for over ten years.

Your mother called me early in the morning

to keep some for her.

Thank you, uncle.

You are welcome.

Ms. Zhao, your daughter is back.

Hurry up.

Ms. Zhao, your daughter is back.

Hurry up.

Lili,

I don't know what happened to my mom.

As soon as I was back,

I found blood all over her head.

It's Chen to blame.

He insisted on going on a date with me.

If he didn't,

I could have come home earlier.

If I came home earlier,

I'm sure my mom would be fine.

Anyway, anyway,

I'm going to

break up with Chen now.

He's the one who put my mom through this.

Dun…Dun…Dun…

Don't put the wrong blame on Chen.

Bring your boyfriend back home

to show me.

Ms. Zhao,

you must have had a very busy noon.

You've obviously bought the mangos

Auntie Wang gave me.

There are still bubbles in the fish tank,

which shows

the water was changed no more than half an hour ago,

and it was done in a hurry.

Right at that time,

your partner told you

I was on my way home.

Ms. Zhao,

this is the third time

you've pretended to be dead.

It's not funny at all.

Are you still angry, Ms. Zhao?

Even I wasn't angry.

When you were lying there just now,

you scared the hell out of me, OK?

Of course I'm angry.

You keep lying to me.

All right, all right, all right.

I won't lie to you from now on, OK?

I'll try to bring you

a tall, rich and handsome son-in-law this year.

Really?

Yes.

You are not lying to me?

I'm not lying to you.

I'm not lying to you.

Come on, let's have some cake together.

Small-minded.

You are even more small-minded.

Sit in the middle, Ms. Zhao.

The birthday girl sits in the middle.

I'm gonna make a wish.

You…

I see.

I hope my birthday wish

for this year is

if my mom drinks less alcohol,

I'll bring her

a tall, rich and handsome son-in-law.

Bad girl.

How can you make a wish with conditions attached?

But I'm

very happy this way too.

Our Jun has grown up.

Has grown up.

Uh.

Has grown up.

Has grown up.

Done.

OK.

Shall we blow out the candles together?

Come on. Three, two, one. Blow.

Three, two, one.

Nuisance!

Thank you, mom.

Thank you, Jun.

Don't go, Jun.

Stay…

Stay with mom

for a while.

Miss Ai, where's He Dun?

Mr. Wang,

He Dun has just gone out.

Gone out?

Sir,

please take me to the seafood market.

Mr. Wang.

He Dun,

where are you?

Something urgent has come up.

I…I have to go out for a while.

Mr. Yang was trying to trip me up.

Thanks to your good job,

both the leaders and the investors

heaped praise on you.

We are going to

have a lunch meeting together.

Come back quickly.

Mr. Wang, I'm sorry.

I really can't go.

You guys just go ahead.

Miss Ai said you had answered a call.

Is it about Zhang Yan's case?

He Dun,

don't blame me for not reminding you.

That help seeker

has had

strong transference on you.

Have you thought about the consequences

of going over at such a time?

Hello.

Little boy,

are you calling the wrong number?

Why is mom going with my older sister?

Why is mom leaving me behind?

Little boy, take it easy.

Can you tell me

your name?

And what is your mom's name?

My name is Lele.

My mom's name is Zhang Yan.

My mom is not answering my calls.

Sir,

is this Luo's Pickled Rice Noodles?

Yes.

Have you seen a boy

of around six years old?

Around six years old…

See if that one over there is the one.

Like I said,

she's sure to come.

Don't go, guys.

Come to have a look.

And you guys.

Don't play dumb.

All right, all right.

Each of you film one version.

OK.

And send it to me.

Say something.

Where's Lele?

What Lele?

Do you mean

the kid on the phone just now?

Why?

Do you know him?

You are Qianqian, aren't you?

Please.

You are Zhang Yan's daughter.

Come on.

Film closer.

This is

the star of our livestreaming show today.

The famous, big-name psychological counselor

He Dun.

Even big-name.

Oh my god.

It is she

who broke up

an otherwise happy, perfect family.

Do you know

you'll be held liable

for libel?

Libel?

Ever since my mom went to see you,

she's been asking for

a divorce with my dad again and again.

Psychological counselor?

Bah!

You are a professional homewrecker instead!

I'm going for now

if your younger brother is OK.

He Dun!

Don't go.

You even have the nerve to…

Stop…

Older sister! Older sister!

Older sister!

Older sister!

It is she…

It is she who asks mom to leave us!

Auntie,

don't let my mom leave me.

Auntie, please.

Please.

Don't let my mom leave me, OK?

Don't touch my brother!

Yes.

It is me who made the suggestion.

Why did you…

Why did you break up our family?

Do you know how much harm

you've brought me and my brother?

Move aside, move aside.

Stop filming.

He Dun, let's go.

He Dun!

You'll be punished for what you've done!

Have you really thought it through?

I've thought it through.

I have lung cancer, fourth stage.

My husband and I have agreed

to tell the children that

we are divorced

and they'll live with their father.

Miss He,

please.

When I die,

please pull my children through the difficult time.

It is she who asks mom to leave us!

Please.

Mr. Wang,

I went to have private contact with the help seeker

while exposing the counselling relationship.

I violated the rule of confidentiality,

so I shouldn't stay here anymore.

He Dun.

Make sure to guard your boundaries.

Are you all right?

I'm OK.

That girl

did such terrible harm to you,

yet you are still here

to pray for her mother.

If she got to know the truth,

would she have a mental breakdown

and regret it?

She wouldn't have done this

if she really knew the truth.

Indeed.

But did you really quit your job?

It was not your fault anyway.

What's more, Professor Ji

has stood up for you.

Things will be OK.

I've made up my mind.

When I made a mistake,

I must stand still to get beaten.

But didn't Mr. Wang

also say

he'd be glad to give you

a chance to start over again?

This incident impacts so many people.

I don't want to

drag Professor Ji into it.

All right.

You have my support no matter what you do

as long as you like it.

At the worst, you can start all over again

and make a comeback.

How to start all over again?

How to make a comeback?

Where to start all over again?

My dear,

you are a little dejected now,

do you know?

Let me give you a tip

which I'm sure will change what you are like now.

What tip?

Start with a dopamine feast.

It will put a smile on your face

when you finish it.

What dopamine feast?

Today the Tipsy House

sent me a message

saying it offers 90% off for ladies.

90% off?

That's like eating and drinking for free.

We might as well take up the offer.

What are we waiting for? Let's go.

Let's go. Go.

Hello.

This is Yunkai Phycological Rescue Center.

How can I help?

Hello.

A counselor

with Employee No.82

helped one of my students before.

I have something

to consult with her.

Could you put me through?

OK, hold on please.

OK.

I'm very sorry.

The No.82 employee

you'd like to consult with

has left the job.

Left the job?

Why?

I'm not sure

about the specifics either.

Could you help me

get in touch with her offline?

I'm very sorry.

The identity information

of all our staff members

is strictly confidential.

If you need any help,

you can keep contacting us by phone.

Thank you.

Morning, Qiao.

Morning.

Morning, Qiao.

Morning.

Qiao.

Qiao.

Morning.

What's this?

Profiles of expert psychologists.

Qualifications guaranteed.

Pick one randomly.

There is

no random option in my show.

Then how dare you make a bet with the head of our radio station?

How are you gonna find one in a week?

I think you'd better

pick one randomly first

and change it later if it doesn't work.

What's the point of getting stuck here?

OK.

I'll make a call later

for a casual chat.

I can only help you this much.

It's not like picking a girlfriend.

Hurry up.

Thank you, Qiao.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Zhe!

Excuse me, excuse me.

Zhe! Zhe!

What happened?

It sucks.

Be quick to have a look at your suit jacket.

You Na!

What are you doing?

Is it you who stained my suit?

♫Each dawn blooms with a word of flowers♫

♫Here is an aroma of coffee and you♫

♫Whether the haze turns into a rain or the weather suddenly clears up♫

♫I wish to be with you♫

♫A shower of rain gently floats far out of the sky♫

♫Taking with it my blue and cloudy memories♫
