Original subtitles

The renovation period

of those business apartments

ranges from one year to three months.

For the one

with the longest renovation span, over one year,

formaldehyde content in cabinets

still exceeds the limit.

Mr. Cao,

it’s not an individual problem.

Well, you...

You’re

really a tough guy, Mr. Tao.

But I’m prepared

to do business in China.

I pay taxes

and trade according to law.

I’m a leader and innovator

in this industry.

These...

Why do they matter?

As long as I handle the issue properly,

it won't have any impact on me.

So you’ve already told your partners

and investors about it?

And.

Manager Sang with Xiaoyun Finance,

does he know that?

Mr. Cao,

your leverage

has reached a tipping point.

Once the vacancy rate of those apartments

is one or two percentage points higher,

you’ll face huge losses.

But your marriage to Ding Fangfang

may change the status quo,

because Mr. Ding’s

capital and position in the financial sector

are enough to help you realize your aspirations.

Am I wrong?

Our country welcomes

investors from all over the world

but the premise is

to do business here,

you have to be honest.

Mr. Tao,

I thought

we were similar.

Only you thought so.

Go to my law firm this afternoon

and sign that prenup.

No rush, Mr. Cao.

Take your time.

I’ll be waiting for you.

So Cao Yiren gave in

simply due to one test report?

One?

I showed him over twenty ones.

Where did you get them?

I’ve got quite a few buddies, okay?

A guy in the Testing Bureau

gave them to me.

And they're only for cupboards.

Nothing else.

So you cheated him?

Uh-huh.

Wow, Tao Junhui.

You're quite different. You've even learned to cheat.

It depends.

You have to do it when you have to.

Good job.

So he’ll get here this afternoon?

Maybe.

Maybe?

I mean...

We need to talk.

Go ahead.

I’m sorry.

Just, just have a good talk.

Bye.

Go for it! Bye.

What's wrong?

Are you angry?

No.

If so, why don't you talk?

I don't want to.

Take a seat.

Let me see.

Are you unwell?

Have some water. Calm down.

How can you be so mean?

What’s wrong, Counsel Wu?

What drives you mad?

How could you accept my dad's commission

without telling me?

Do you forget our agreement?

Counsel Wu,

you're being a little bit unreasonable.

I don't deserve it.

Right.

Our agreement.

You wanted Tao Junhui to work in Corporate Department.

I made it.

You asked to work as a Senior Associate

in Family Dispute Department.

I also made it.

You wanted to see Qin Shi caught in an awkward situation.

I made it.

Looks like

I promised you

nothing else.

Your dad cares about you.

He wants to learn more

about Tao Junhui.

I think

it makes perfect sense.

Everybody can see

the camera on the eleventh floor.

What should and should not be done

is up to others

instead of me.

But you took it out on me.

Weren’t you somewhat...

Somewhat unreasonable?

Also,

Tao Junhui dated.

Qin Shi.

It's no secret.

Did Tao Junhui

keep it from you?

No.

He told me everything.

There you go.

I think his attitude towards Qin Shi

is quite normal

and understandable.

Good girl, you know,

first love is unforgettable

for everyone.

Tao and Qin

almost got married.

My husband, Jin,

he just used to share with his deskmate

pencils and erasers

and he remembers her clearly.

But...

But Qin Shi hurt him so much.

Don’t

let his past haunt you.

After all,

you're

his fiancée now.

He never looks at me

that way.

See? You still try to win.

I'm telling you,

for women,

jealousy is the worst.

Once you get jealous,

you already lost.

A proud and confident person

never gets jealous.

Instead of being jealous,

why not think about

your own strengths?

I don't think.

Tao Junhui dates you

because of your father's property.

You don't even

have that confidence?

I know

the secret to a happy marriage.

Do you want to know it?

The secret is that

never expect

anyone

to love you more than your parents.

And only you

can make yourself happy.

What is it?

Read it.

That's why you're unhappy?

If you really want to know

if Tao Junhui loves you,

there's a way.

Just ask him to sign the agreement

and you’ll know.

What are you going to do?

Sign it.

Then we can enjoy the rest of today.

You finish reading it?

I don’t have to. There’s nothing wrong.

Nothing wrong?

Why do I find everything

wrong?

Which part?

It's just wrong!

This agreement

insults you

and our love!

Why are you so calm?

If you're mistreated,

you should fight back!

You should talk back!

You should just

tear it up

and throw it in the trash!

Why didn’t you do that?

Why should you sign it?

Why did you sign it?

Don’t be so gentle all the time.

Don't be nice to everyone!

Don’t cry.

Too many tears are bad for your skin.

Fei,

we can't freak out

every time we feel wronged.

Or else, we’ll do nothing

but only keep mad, right?

Life is not as easy as we expect.

Sometimes it sucks.

Sometimes it’s a mess.

Sometimes we get misunderstood.

So what?

It's no use getting mad.

We can't change others' views.

And personally,

I don’t care about them.

All I care about is you.

Good girl, good girl.

Junhui,

let's get married as soon as possible.

Okay.

Why are you in such a hurry?

Wait, when will we sign the contract

this afternoon?

At 3 or 4 p.m.

3 or 4 p.m.

Okay, I’ve got enough time.

I take a leave.

I’ll be back before the signing. Bye.

Be careful!

Do you know

we lost a

centurion client

because of you?

How dare you talk nonsense

and find fault

with the product of Fang-Yu Finance?

Do you know

what kind of person.

Mr. Qiu of Fang-Yu Group is?

I don't get it.

You're just new here

and only an account manager.

Where did you get your courage?

It has nothing to do with courage.

Fang-Yu Group's product isn't safe.

I gave you the analysis report.

If you read it,

you'll know.

I’m right.

Come off it.

Listen,

Mr. Qiu is our.

VIP partner.

He’s got projects worth tens of billions of yuan.

Now he’s offended.

If the cooperation

is affected,

can you afford it?

All I know is as an account manager,

I should

safeguard our clients’ interests.

I can't recommend my clients

to buy an untrustworthy

trust product.

Besides, I have

professional ethics.

You!

Okay, good.

I guess you're too good

to stay here.

You're dismissed.

Why are you at home?

I, I'm hungry

so I come back to cook noodles.

And so.

I made such a mess.

I'll clean it up right now.

Are you okay?

You can’t cook.

Why force yourself?

Just tell me what you want to eat.

I'll cook and deliver the food to you.

But you have

your own job.

Wait a minute.

Why are you back?

I... To get something.

I’ll go back to work soon.

Have a rest.

I'll clean it up and cook something for you.

I’ll do it.

I’ll do it. I’ll do it.

Hello, be careful.

Your takeaway.

Why did you order

two shares?

I’m a big eater.

Alright, I confess.

I planned to

cook some food at home

and deliver it to the bank

as a surprise gift for you.

But you know the result.

So,

I came up with a Plan B.

I ordered takeaway and planned to tell you I cooked it.

Who could know you suddenly got back?

Why do you suddenly want to cook

for me?

Not suddenly.

I've been planning to do something for you.

I considered many choices before deciding to cook.

All the time

you've been caring about

and taking care of me.

I can't imagine

if you weren’t by my side,

what mess I’d be caught in

these days.

I just want to tell you

we are with each other.

I can take care of you, too.

I’ll do all I can do for you.

But you don't have to

do what you're not good at.

I don’t know I can’t cook

until today.

Yang Hua,

I know you have your job

and life.

Between family and career,

I believe you'll choose the former.

But I hate to see

the family becomes your burden.

I hope we

can get better together,

instead of

one giving in to the other.

But if one day.

I lose my job?

You can count on me.

Anyway, wherever you are,

you’ll be awesome.

You're doing great at home

but the premise is you're

doing it out of your free will and joy.

Whatever you do,

I’m always behind you.

Like you’re behind me,

I’m behind you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you for coming to me.

Thank you for coming to me, too.

OK, I'll get it for you.

So

that's it.

See you sometime.

Let me see you off, dear.

Don't be so upset.

It's not the first time

you've lost to me.

I lost?

Honey,

how innocent you are.

It’s okay. Losing is no big deal.

I’ll treat you to dinner this time, okay?

Do you know Cao Yiren met someone

before signing the agreement?

Mr. Ding,

finally we meet each other.

Why did Cao Yiren

visit Mr. Ding, in your view?

It could be any reason,

but definitely not the one

that he wanted to convince Mr. Ding that

he loved Ding Fangfang.

Ma’am,

I feel like getting tricked.

Look,

to get something

on Cao Yiren,

we investigated him

thoroughly.

I’ve got

no business sense at all

and I can tell

he’s

a born businessman.

His company

is facing various problems,

but as long as the cash flow issue is solved,

he’ll still get profits.

Do you think he visited Mr. Ding

for business?

Maybe.

Look,

I don't know Cao Yiren,

but I’m familiar with Mr. Ding.

Mr. Ding is also a businessman.

If Cao Yiren persuaded him

into investing,

Cao will

definitely make money.

Compared with it,

what he gives up

by signing that prenup,

is nothing.

Ma’am, we lost money.

Why?

Look,

we only got the commission

for the prenup,

but did full

accounting and legal due diligence.

Wait.

I don't think

it's that easy.

Somehow I feel.

Cao Yiren’s not

the only trouble.

I’m worried about that.

Ma’am,

are you also playing tricks on me?

You've only been in the Corporate Department for a few days

and become so suspicious.

Then tell me.

In addition to feeling trapped,

what else

have you learned?

I dare not say I learn

but after this period

of tough work,

I do understand something.

Tell me.

Considering my qualifications,

if I want to be competitive here,

I’ve got a lot

to learn.

You know yourself well.

Compared with me,

Tao Junhui is a better choice.

And he’s well-connected.

So

he’s good in competency, background

and also management.

So,

despite the embarrassing situation, you asked me

to stay on the eleventh floor.

It’s not for

observing Tao Junhui, right?

Instead,

it's me who fell behind

and you hoped I could reflect on myself.

I’m glad to hear that.

I know

I went my own way all the time.

Qin Shi,

do you know

your biggest strength?

I’m as beautiful as a flower?

Your biggest strength is

you’re smart and flexible

and you never get tied

by rules.

But also, your biggest weakness is

you’re too smart, uncontrollable

and ambitious.

Only after getting setbacks

will you know

who the boss is.

I know I was wrong.

I was wrong.

I really know it.

Please give me one more chance.

Here are the rules.

Do not

act on your own all the time.

Absolutely.

Do not withhold

anything

concerning the company's interests.

Absolutely.

If I ask you to do something,

don't try to cheat me.

I’ll do

whatever you ask me to do.

You’re my boss.

Good.

You’ve got

an important task now.

Could you check it for me?

OK, just a moment.

Don't worry, ma'am.

Your name

isn't on the deed

but since you bought

the apartment during your marriage,

you own

half of it.

After your husband passed away,

the half he owned turns into an inheritance.

Both you and your son

are entitled to it.

And you have the right of abode in the apartment.

Your son has no right to kick you out.

Don’t worry.

Okay, I got it. I got it.

Got it?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Hold on, ma’am.

May I take a picture of you?

Qianqian, give me a hand.

Three, two, one.

Done.

Thank you.

Thank you. Bye.

Come to me if you have any other questions.

Okay, okay.

Counsel Qin,

why don't you

go back to Family Dispute Department?

I'm doing good in Corporate Department.

Why should I go back to Family Dispute Department?

Because

we all miss you so much.

We all hope you can come back.

Is it right, Qianqian?

Right.

I can’t make more progress

in Family Dispute Department.

In Corporate Department,

I’m out of my comfort zone

and can embrace challenges.

Lawyers are

lifelong learners.

Okay, I must go now.

I’ll go for a walk.

Do your best.

Call me if you need me.

Okay.

I'm near

the bank you work in.

When will you get off work?

I’ll drive you home.

I have to work overtime today

and may go back late.

Overtime?

The bank's system is closed

in off-hours.

Why are you working overtime?

Tr-training.

There’s going to be a training.

They told me that.

Training?

Where are you?

Your place is so noisy.

Say it again.

What happened?

Nothing, I guess the job

isn't what I want.

You mean

you found out

the problems of a product,

which has helped clients to avoid

potential loss

and the bank to avoid

a potential crisis,

but

they fired you,

right?

If you say so.

Bastards.

Jia?

Cai,

Mr. Qiu called me just now.

He said because we

canceled

the sale of the credit product,

he felt quite offended.

The other day, he agreed

to introduce to us this week

director of a new energy project.

Now it’s ruined.

Can you afford it?

Can you?

Calm down.

Have a seat, Jia.

Have some water. Sit down.

Have some water.

Jia, about this,

do you believe me if I say I can afford it?

And

can you stop threatening me

with that project?

I heard

you'd been focusing on the project for a long time.

You didn't even get the chance

to meet its director.

I don't know how you've negotiated with Mr. Qiu.

But

we sold Fang-Yu Group's product

for tens of billions of yuan.

Cai,

what do you mean?

What do I mean?

I mean,

we agree to sell the product

on behalf of Fang-Yu Group

but we've also

recommended it to

our platinum and centurion clients.

If they know

the product we recommend is defective,

do you know the consequences?

Defective?

Fang-Yu Group is a senior

financial firm, alright?

By the way,

I’ve heard

it’s you who recruited that guy called Yang Hua

despite the rules.

I'm curious.

What's your relationship?

He has a limited amount of work experience

and got promoted to

account manager.

He even dared to say the product was untrustworthy.

I hired Yang Hua

because I knew

he was qualified for the job.

I'm telling you,

it's nothing to be

an account manager.

When he worked as an analyst

in the best financial firm

in North America,

he was only twenty-two.

I promise.

If he says there was a problem,

there must be.

You promise?

If he’s wrong, can you afford it?

Can you afford it?

You already fired him.

What else do you want?

What?

Manager Cai,

hurry up.

What's wrong?

Yang Hua, Yang Hua's back.

What's he doing back here?

Just in time.

I was planning to visit him.

Why are you here?

Who are you?

Take a seat.

I'm Yang Hua's wife.

Young people.

You make a mistake at work

and you count on your wife.

As a male,

I'm ashamed of you.

May I have your surname?

Jia.

You’re the bank manager

who dismissed my husband, right?

Yeah.

Could you please tell me

the reason for dismissing my husband?

Reason?

You ask me?

Why don't you ask

your husband what he did?

Here's the thing.

Apologize to Mr. Qiu

as soon as possible.

Take back your inappropriate remarks

and correct your mistakes.

Otherwise, all the consequences

and financial losses

are on you.

You hear me?

When I was a kid, my mother taught me

to be reasonable and disciplined.

To respect the old and love the young.

To avoid making a sound when eating.

To avoid pointing at others

when talking.

But later I found

for some people,

nobody ever taught them those things.

Are you ridiculing me?

Manager Jia,

looks like

you know little about the law.

The Labor Law stipulates

that an employee gets dismissed

only in the following cases.

One, during the probation period,

the employee does not meet the requirements.

Two, the employee severely violates

the rules and regulations of the employer.

Three, the employee’s severe malpractice and favoritism

have caused great harm

to the employer.

Four,

the employee has

signed labor contracts with other employers.

Five, according to regulations,

the labor contract is invalid.

Six, the employee is investigated for criminal responsibility

according to law.

May I ask

which one Yang Hua violated?

The second.

Please think it over.

Yang Hua

raised reasonable doubts

about the risks of a product

issued by

an external financial institution.

Could you tell me

which rule he violated?

He...

It's, it’s not

his job at all.

An account manager

shall serve clients.

That’s responsible for both the bank

and clients.

If

that's not his job,

what is?

You!

You're being ridiculous.

You're the one being ridiculous.

The Labor Law provides that

during the probation period,

even if the employer

finds that the employee

is incompetent for the position,

the employer has no legal reason to dismiss the employee.

The employer shall offer the employee

training,

which is the employer’s obligation.

If the employer decides to dismiss the employee,

a written notice

of 30 days in advance

and payment of all the salaries

the employee shall receive

are needed.

What you are doing now

is in violation

of the Labor Law.

The Court of Arbitration or media,

which do you prefer?

We'll satisfy you.

You!

Who the hell are you?

I’m a senior associate

of Honesty & Prudence law firm, Pujiang.

My name is Qin Shi.

Next time you want to insult someone,

you’d better know

his contacts first.

Let's go.

Counsel Qin,

here's the exit.

- Say it earlier next time. - She’s right.

Extend your greatest thanks to your wife at home.

She’s awesome.

Counsel Qin,

I know it's you.

Glad to see you again.

It's a shame

you're just an account manager here.

Why not consider coming to my firm?

Mr. Qiu!

Here you go!

Er,

I

take the matter seriously

and I’ll settle it well.

Back then,

Qiu Jianxiang

was a god-like man

in the securities industry.

His classic cases

were even included into

textbooks.

At college,

even our securities teacher

is a big fan of his.

Normally,

it’s impossible for an ordinary person like me

to get in touch

with a genius

like him.

But Counsel Qin, guess what?

In our senior year,

we took part in a

simulated stock trading competition for college students.

Since then,

the life of two young men has changed.

Have a guess.

Who won the competition?

You’ve been foreshadowing.

Surely that gentleman.

Wrong.

Guess what?

The competition lasted for a month.

Participants included individuals and teams.

The only key to winning

was yield.

Yang Hua and I

shared an account together.

I remember

at the beginning of the game,

the index

was 4289.72

while in the end,

3686.92.

A drop

of 12.02 percent.

But within two weeks,

we managed to

get the yield to

seventeen...

17.32 percent.

Do you know what that means?

Winner.

What yield

do you think the runner-up got?

That’s embarrassing.

They’re somewhat stupid

because they only got a yield of 10.02 percent then.

Can you imagine that?

Hua,

Hua,

stop playing your stupid chess game,

alright?

“Prince of Prairie”

increased his yield

to 14.3 percent.

Just now

he sold.

DFE shares out

for

12.26 RMB.

I remember he bought

them for 11.7 RMB.

What should we do?

His current gains rate

is 3 to 4 percent.

There are ten days left.

If his yield keeps rising like this,

he’ll beat us.

Why don't we build a position?

No way.

Let’s do it.

I'll select four.

These four

meet the basic requirements.

They’re not bad. Shall we build one?

No.

We talked about.

Yizheng Chemical Fiber before.

Remember our investigation?

As long as it charges between 6.9 RMB

and 7.2 RMB per stock,

it’s a good choice, right?

The price has risen to

7.1 RMB per stock.

I think we can still

buy some.

No.

The price of Hongcheng Stock

is

20.58 per stock.

I remember

you said

we could consider it if the price was below twenty-one yuan.

Shall we buy some?

Yes.

Yang,

you... you...

So finally,

because you didn't build a position,

you watched the guy second to you

take the first place?

On August 23,

we bought 2,000 shares of Hongcheng Stock

for 20.62 RMB.

On August 27,

we sold them out for 19.5 RMB.

In the end, “Prince of Prairie”

won the game

by a yield of 17.6 percent,

only 0.2 percent higher

than the second place.

So who’s responsible

for our awesome failure?

I’ve learned.

I’m

not cut out for the stock market, okay?

That’s why after graduation,

between a stock exchange and a bank,

I firmly chose to work for the latter

and have been

counting others’ money ever since.

And I’m always

feeling I owe him

five million.

My pride is hurt before him.

He's annoying.

You've been talking for an hour.

May I listen to the hero’s story?

Counsel Qin, you can't take him as an example.

He’s impersonal.

Besides the hero’s story,

I think you also want to listen

to that of the supporting role.

Do you know how much

an hour of mine is worth?

Don't mention money.

I work eight hours a day and I also get paid.

I’m also a human, okay?

After the competition,

I got a call.

Hello?

Hello.

Is that Mr. Yang Hua?

Qiu Jianxiang’s speaking.

I guess you know

who I am.

Would you like to

meet and

talk with me?

I see.

Among so many participants,

I paid most attention to you.

Someone bet me that

you’d give in to pressure

and build a position.

But I believed you wouldn’t.

I did lose

but finally

I figured it out.

As a trader,

the key is to be determined,

principled

and persistent.

Did you learn anything

from the failure?

The greatest thing I’ve learned is

a powerful opponent can’t beat you

but a stupid teammate can.

Would you like to be my teammate?

So after college,

I went to Canada

to be his assistant for two years.

Then I was employed as a fund manager.

Excuse me. Two more jugs of Sake.

One.

Listen to me. One. Let’s enjoy it slowly.
