=Episode 16=

(Xiao Yixiao)

You're just in time.

The problem is solved.

That's good.

You helped me, right?

A friend of mine knew Mr. Ma

and I asked him to set us up.

Didn't I tell you?

I don't need you

to solve my problems at work.

I just don't want you to be upset.

Just this once, then.

I have to work. I'll hang up.

Miss Li, you have such a sweet smile.

Who were you calling?

The one who bought you the bag?

Tell everybody

the raw materials will be here within a month.

Go ahead.

Don't do this again.

Or I may rely too much on you.

(Li Li)

Nothing is wrong with that.

It's just a problem I can handle.

(Xiao Yixiao)

(Xiao Yixiao: Nothing is wrong with that. It's just a problem I can handle.)

Mr. Ma,

I think my grandpa taught you

to keep your promise, didn't he?

Sorry, Miss Zeng.

I did promise you.

But another friend

asked me to help him.

I couldn't reject him.

I had to deliver the raw materials within a month.

Which friend?

I'm quite curious.

Miss Zeng, don't push me.

Fine.

But anyway,

what exactly is "within a month"?

Ten days is within a month.

So is thirty days.

I won't do the delivery

until the 30th day.

Not even a single day earlier.

In this case,

I won't embarrass you anymore.

Thanks.

Oh.

If someone asks about this...

I understand.

Don't worry.

One month?

This is the shortest time

I can get.

I understand. But it's still too long.

In our agreement with Dongyang Medical,

there are due dates.

Without raw materials,

we can't even do the sample inspection.

Let's find another way.

Or we'll be breaking the agreement.

Hello. Your coffee.

Thanks.

Hello, Mr. Han.

The material problem isn't solved?

It's half solved.

We don't need to wait without a due date.

But we'll wait for about one month.

One month?

Not exactly.

Do you need my help?

No. Don't bother.

I should go.

You do have double standards.

When Ji Xing wanted food,

you cooked for her.

You invited me here to dinner.

But I cooked instead.

You didn't even say thank you.

Thank you. Medium, please.

Well, don't say anything

unless it's about business.

Let's get to business, then.

Xingchen and Kebo...

You interfered?

Are you jealous because I helped Ji Xing?

I think you know clearly

who did this dirty trick.

Anyway, Dongyang Medical has

quite a lot of suppliers.

You could have easily helped her.

Why did you choose to do nothing?

I don't understand.

I believe she can solve the problem.

So, I shouldn't have worried, huh?

Han Ting, you know what?

I'm not worried about nothing.

Fine. Medium, huh?

I'll make it well done.

Even better done.

(Dongyang Group)

(Xingchen Technology)

You have hard work, guys.

I've brought you something to eat.

- Thanks, Miss Li. - Thank you, Li.

Come get some.

Youyou, get some for me.

I'm in the middle of something.

Thank you, Miss Li.

Miss Li,

I'll send one pack to Mr. Su.

OK.

Here.

Come on, Weiwei. Take one.

Thank you, Miss Li.

Come on in.

Su,

Li bought us something to eat.

Have some.

Not until I'm done

with my work.

These days,

you sit in here from morning to night

without leaving the office.

Who do you work so hard for?

No one.

Just for myself.

Come on.

I have to focus on work.

Out you go.

- OK. - Thank Miss Li for me.

Close the door.

OK.

(Eat more pastry, Get a higher pay.)

Don't pull a long face in the morning.

Here. Have some pastry.

Pastry in this store is hard to get.

Every time I pass it,

I see a really long queue.

I usually ask those

who queue ahead of me

to buy some for me.

I give them some free pastry.

It costs more but saves time.

Clever trick.

What?

Li Li, it's so lucky to have you.

It is, indeed.

I've got an idea.

What is wrong with you?

What if we buy the raw materials

in the way you buy pastry?

We can borrow some from the buyers ahead of us.

And we'll offer

a 5% of the price for their help.

But those buyers

also need raw materials for production.

They may not accept this offer.

If 5% can't work,

make it 8%.

In the worst case, make it 10%.

Ask more buyers and one of them will approve.

OK. I'll go check

what companies are lining ahead of us.

OK. Come on.

What makes you so happy today?

You even asked me out to lunch.

Bay is going very well.

Thanks for your hard work. Be seated.

So many dishes?

When you were in Germany,

you weren't this fussy about food.

At that time, I was even too busy to sleep.

I was in no mood for food.

I remember it was when

you just established Dongyang Base.

Few people thought highly of it.

You were stressed out.

I offered to stay and help you,

but you rejected me

and insisted on struggling alone.

Indeed.

The initial stage of a company is hard.

Even the slightest lapse

may bring the company to destruction.

Let's eat.

I had a meeting all morning and I'm tired.

One has limited strength.

Focus more

on serious business

and you won't be that tired.

What do you mean?

What other business did I do?

You're the boss.

Don't waste your time

setting someone up.

You asked Mr. Ma

to postpone the delivery of raw materials

so that Xingchen couldn't

have their experiment as scheduled.

Are you not involved?

Xingchen can't get the raw materials,

but what does it have to do with me?

You can't blame me

for Ji Xing's failure, can you?

Mr. Ma is your grandpa's student.

You've always been close.

That's right.

But so what?

You know me.

Will I slander anyone

without investigating her?

Without telling me,

she poached my employee.

I feel humiliated, don't I?

Teaching her a lesson like this

isn't too harmful, huh?

Xingchen is invested by Dongyang Medical.

When you gave it a lesson,

you'd be disgracing me.

Is Guanghua not your company, then?

It is, of course.

No matter who does such dirty tricks,

I will interfere.

I get it.

I'll meet Mr. Ma personally.

Maybe there's some misunderstanding.

Let's eat.

Taste your favorite fish.

Yichen.

The chef offers

to cook in your place.

Don't turn her down.

How about we eat out?

Do you not believe in my cooking skills?

Rest assured.

You don't need to do anything.

When the dishes are done,

just give me some comment.

You even brought some wine?

Yeah. Good wine for fancy dishes.

It tastes good.

How about you taste some later?

Yichen,

do you like stir-fried meat with chili?

The other day, I learned to cook it

the original way.

OK.

What else do you like to eat?

Anything.

How about I make you

some light dishes?

When I stayed with Xing for a long time,

I loved spicy food, too.

But recently,

I haven't had light dishes for a while.

Sorry.

Yichen, I don't mean to...

It's OK.

I didn't eat spicy food, either.

Your finger is cut. Let me tie it up.

I'll be more gentle.

It's OK.

The cut won't heal

before it hurts.

(Pearl River Piano)

Smart Lemon?

What are you doing here?

Didn't I tell you I would run a bar?

So, I'm here to buy

some impressive instruments

and I'll put them in my bar.

Then,

whoever visits my bar will say,

"The owner is professional."

Will you really open a bar?

The money and the location are almost done.

Based on the advice you gave me,

I'm working on a proposal.

When it's approved,

money will not be a problem.

That bar looks really good.

I won't redecorate it.

I'll change the bar sign and open it.

So, you...

Before your proposal is approved,

you buy instruments already?

Don't worry. You offered some advice.

There won't be a problem.

So, you do a part-time job here?

Yes.

The owner is my friend.

You haven't boosted popularity

for Snow White for a long time.

You're no longer a fan?

Don't mention it.

Before, on the Internet,

she humiliated her fans.

I was just blind.

Fine. It's never too late to correct.

You're not completely blind.

Seriously,

you gave me some good advice last time.

How about you serve as my consultant?

When you're there, you'll have free drinks.

OK.

Pick me some instruments.

- Let's go. - OK.

I had meant to cook for you.

But in the end, you had to cook.

You're my guest.

I should cook for you.

I don't cook very well, though.

Make do with it.

No way. They smell great.

Does it still hurt?

No. Just a little cut.

Qiuzi.

Thank you for helping me

with my family problem.

These days, you've also been comforting me.

Here. A toast to you.

Yichen, there's no need of that.

Yichen,

I want to help you as much as I can.

Thanks.

Enjoy the dishes before they get cold.

Whenever you need me,

I'll always be there.

I...

I want to be with you forever.

Qiuzi,

I'm sorry.

I'm not ready

to start a new relationship.

It's OK.

I understand.

Don't worry about it.

Let's eat.

This dish tastes good.

The raw material problem has been solved.

We've received

the best resin,

titanium alloy, and tantalum metal.

The registration of intervertebral cage is also in progress.

The product experiment will be done soon.

I'll waste no time.

I'm getting back to work, then.

(Guideline of 2023 MBA of Xinggang University)

I'll study hard.

(Pursue Knowledge Without Stop)

So much

for today's class.

If you have any questions,

let's communicate after class.

Class is over.

Mr. Ma, I should go.

OK.

Mr. Ma Feng.

Nice to meet you.

I watched your interview.

When you were in college,

you started the research of genetic testing.

Before graduation, you had got some investment.

That's impressive.

Thanks. And you are?

I'm Ji Xing from Xingchen Technology.

What a surprise to meet you here!

I have things to do. Excuse me.

Professor.

Mr. Ma, long no see.

Prof. Xiang, I've learned quite a lot today.

Your five theories...

So, this is your note?

Mr. Han? What are you doing here?

Prof. Xiang.

You wait for me out there.

Oh, Han Ting.

I thought you would wait in my office.

Long time no see.

Are you Mr. Han Ting

from Dongyang Medical?

I am.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Ma Feng

from Fengsu Gene.

Hope we can cooperate someday.

Sorry, but I need

to talk to Prof. Xiang.

You guys talk.

I'll leave you alone.

Hope we can cooperate.

OK.

Let's talk in my office.

(Pursue Knowledge Without Stop)

(Have Noble Morality Without Selfishness)

Miss Ji.

Miss Ji.

Oh, Mr. Ma Feng.

I'm sorry.

I forgot to give you my name card.

I didn't expect you to know Mr. Han.

Shall we have dinner someday?

My treat.

- OK. - All right.

I have to go.

- OK. See you. - Bye-bye.

My treat.

OK.

What are you looking at?

Let's go.

Mr. Han, you don't always

need a name card, do you?

Your face can talk.

Watching interviews can't help, huh?

What have you learned these days?

I realize I have

awesome classmates.

They're all famous guys.

But of course, you're the most impressive.

I'm hungry.

Shall I invite you to lunch?

OK.

What would you like to eat?

Anything.

Let's go.

(Delicious Fried Skewers)

(Spicy Stir-fry Pot)

Look. He's so handsome.

Yeah. So cool.

This is what you've bought me?

You said anything would do.

It's the flavor you can only taste

in a school cafeteria.

Taste it.

How does it taste?

Good.

Thanks for the compliment, Mr. Han.

It's seldom your treat, after all.

What do you mean, "seldom"?

That year, when we won the first prize,

the dinner was my treat.

You just didn't come.

I was going to Germany at that time

and I texted you.

You didn't text back.

You texted me?

That day, I...

I accidentally lost my phone.

What did you say in the text?

Nothing special.

I just told you I couldn't go.

Oh, are you available tomorrow?

I want to brief you.

So soon? Want the second payment?

It's almost the day

of the second payment, after all.

How's it going with your work?

This afternoon,

we'll print out the sample

of intervertebral cage.

Tomorrow, we'll have your internal inspection.

Once it's done,

we'll have it tested in the institute.

Hope we can get

the qualification report soon.

Are you so sure

you'll pass tomorrow's inspection?

Yes, of course.

Or I'd break our agreement.

Hello, Zhizhou.

Hey, Xing.

You're answering, at last.

The anxiety is killing me.

What happened? Tell me.

Don't be anxious.

When Zuo operated the printer,

he broke it.

Is the problem serious?

The printer breaks down when it's turned on.

The screen also goes blank when it's on.

Now, you call Beidi

for the maintenance work.

I'll be right back.

Got it.

Something's wrong. I have to go.

Let me drive you.

Have you decided what to do?

Our priority is to fix the printer.

When I'm back,

I'll see what is exactly wrong.

Don't worry.

When Beidi has the printer fixed,

the printing will take only 40 minutes.

The inspection won't be delayed.

Since Xingchen was established,

there hasn't been a clear disciplinary system

or a personnel management system.

This kind of accident

has something to do with process and management.

You just learned to manage a company.

Time to put your learning to use.

Through this problem,

I can sort out

Xingchen's structure.

In the early stage, you won support

from employees with dreams and emotions

and inspired them to work hard.

That's acceptable.

But initiative isn't the only factor for work.

The sense of crisis and motivation are as important.

Competition and elimination are crucial, too.

You have to control

the bond between them.

I get your point.

Indeed, many regulations in Xingchen

aren't perfect.

So, how will you deal with employee

who broke the printer?

If you were me, what would you do?

I'd hold him responsible

and consider if I'll fire him accordingly.

Fire him?

Isn't it too cruel?

In a loose management,

prestige will be gone as time goes by.

But besides regulations,

we also care for human nature.

Zuo is a talented man.

He came to Xingchen after graduation.

And employees of Xingchen

get along like friends.

If I fire him,

what will other employees think?

They'll be discouraged.

Then you can

give his credit and profit

to other members

of this project.

There must be a better solution.

It's so thoughtful of you.

Have you thought about this?

If you can't finish as scheduled,

you'll break the agreement.

We'll finish as scheduled

and won't break the agreement.

Do you need me there?

No. If I can't even solve this little problem,

I'll be too ashamed to be the boss.

Boss,

Miss Ji looks rather anxious.

How about you pamper her?

Come on. Can't you

transfer a maintenance man

to fix our printer?

We're in urgent need

and no time can be wasted.

Please help us, OK?

Hello?

Hello?

You're the vice general manager.

You must calm down.

Or the others will be more anxious.

Cheer up, guys.

There are always solutions.

We still have some time.

The problem will be solved.

Mr. Su,

if the printer

can't be fixed,

what do we do?

Don't jinx it.

Let's think of more ways to solve it.

We'll have the inspection tomorrow.

If the printer isn't fixed,

the overall progress will be delayed.

But in the progress report to Dongyang Medical,

we said we would finish as scheduled.

What do we do now?

They're aware, I think.

My friend in the Technical Department of Dongyang Medical

just called me to ask about this.

Their technical department

was established by Ms. Yuan.

I guess the news

has reached her.

Zuo,

how did you operate the printer?

If we can't finish as scheduled,

can you hold the responsibilities?

Has Beidi's maintenance man come?

I called them.

All their employees

are traveling in another province.

The maintenance man can't come until the day after tomorrow.

You two come to my office.

Focus on your work.

Boss,

I've prepared the materials

for this afternoon's debriefing meeting.

Our company has been developing stably.

I don't think Ms. Yuan

will find fault this time.

We'll know.

Sit.

What exactly happened?

It happened so suddenly.

Zuo can't remember

which step went wrong.

Who else was present then?

He operated it alone?

According to operational regulations,

at least two operators should be present, huh?

Xing,

there was something wrong

with the contract of our material supplier.

The materials were delivered

three days late.

To catch up with the schedule,

I took all the other employees

to work overtime, reviewing the process.

In this case,

none of us was available.

So, Zuo

operated the printer alone.

Xing,

I'm responsible.

You are.

Can you figure out the fault?

The printer broke down directly.

We can't detect anything wrong.

Xing,

shall we tell Mr. Han

about what happened

and postpone the inspection?

It's a special case, after all.

Nobody could expect it.

In business, we must be honest.

And in the agreement,

the schedule is clarified.

Just because he supports us,

we can't drop the ball.

Whatever happens, tomorrow,

we have to do the inspection.

Zhizhou,

ask everybody to work normally.

We'll contact

the companies we know

and see if any of them have the same printer.

We'll borrow it.

Go ahead.

The first phase of our reform

has been completed.

All the departments have cooperated very well.

The Product Department keeps advancing

the construction of new production lines.

Highly effective.

(Quarterly Overview) The sales of the last quarter

has also risen by 8%.

I'll make adjustments accordingly

for the next phase

to reach perfect collaboration and operation.

Han Ting is doing good, indeed.

Directors,

if there's nothing else,

today's meeting

will be over.

Mr. Han,

since you took over Dongyang Medical,

we've witnessed the powerful measures

you've been taking.

They're effective, indeed.

But there's one thing

I do not understand.

For companies affiliated to Dongyang Medical,

you shouldn't treat

the head office and the subsidiary

very differently, should you?

Mr. Zhou,

what do you mean?

It's not a big deal, actually.

I just heard,

due to Xingchen's poor management,

there was a major failure

in their printer.

If I remember correctly,

in the report

Xingchen submitted last month,

in a day or two,

their intervertebral cage

will have the quality inspection.

Now, if their target can't be reached

because of the poor management,

Mr. Han,

what will you do?

Mr. Zhou,

a startup company

certainly has some small problems.

Xingchen has taken rapid responses.

There's no point in discussing such a little thing at the board meeting.

Mr. Han,

this isn't a little thing.

It indicates something wrong

with our investment

in Xingchen Technology.

We do investment

instead of charity.

What we expect is success

and efficiency.

In the agreement between us,

it's clarified

that if Xingchen's intervertebral cage

can't have the quality inspection as scheduled,

it'll be overdue.

Being overdue

will be a breach of contract.

That's right.

We are a listed company, after all.

Since we've chosen

to invest in the field

of 3D medical printing,

we should make a difference.

Hanhai Technology

has been developing very well.

But look at our company.

Due to poor management,

the quality inspection will be delayed.

If it gets out,

I'm afraid our stock price will be affected.

Don't worry, directors.

Xingchen's research

will be advanced

as specified in our agreement.

Mr. Han,

we're not questioning Ji Xing's ability.

But she's a technical guy, after all.

Here's what I think.

When you have a technical talent

do products and management at the same time,

you're indeed pushing her.

So, Mr. Zhou, are you saying

a professional manager

should be assigned to Xingchen

to help with their administration?

Ms. Yuan,

you're professional.

It's a good idea.

I said

I would be held responsible.

Xingchen doesn't need any parachute manager.

This is just a suggestion.

You're in charge, after all.

If you insist,

we won't argue too much.

Let's wait and see.

Dismissed.

If Mr. Han keeps

going his own way like this,

I'm afraid we'll be in trouble.

We should tell our chairman about this.

Boss,

they're obviously making a fuss

and finding fault.

Anyway,

shall we remind Miss Ji?

No need.

Don't put more pressure on her.

OK.

(Smile)

(Dongyang Group)

Hello, Mr. Hong.

This is Li Li.

I'm not disturbing you, am I?

Do you have an idle printer

that can be lent to us?

I'll let you work, then.

Hello, Mr. Liu. This is Ji Xing.

Hello, Mr. Chen.

Our 3D printer has a failure.

May I ask if you have an idle one?

Our 3D printer has a failure.

- Can we borrow yours? - Fine.

It's OK.

Thank you.

What if tomorrow we can't

do Dongyang's inspection?

In this case,

will it be a breach of contract?

Will there be a penalty?

Will the investment be cut?

Will our company

fall out because of this?

The problem will be solved.

Don't worry about it.

Knock off early

and go back home.

Mr. Su,

you, Miss Ji, and Miss Li

haven't left.

How can we leave before you?

Yeah. We'll stay.

Maybe we can help.

Li.

How's it going?

We're in urgent need.

We contacted anyone we could,

but failed to borrow the same printer

in such a short time.

Guys,

Mr. Zheng of Nanyou Technology

promised to lend us their printer.

Nanyou Technology is in Jingxi.

The company I worked for

did business with them.

I'll go.

OK.

Zhizhou, you go with Li Li.

A technical guy like you can operate the printer.

- OK. - Later,

I'll get you guys in a group chat

where you can contact Mr. Zheng.

Let's go now

and buy the flight tickets on the way.

We'll print it overnight and fly back

early tomorrow morning.

We should go.

OK.

It's getting late.

You get packed and knock off.

Zuo and Xia, go with me to the lab.

- OK. - Miss Ji.

Shall we go with you?

Now, we have a solution.

You don't need to waste time here.

Go home for some rest.

We can't help even if we go.

Let's just listen to Miss Ji.

Then contact us when you need anything.

We'll be always on call.

OK.

Let's go.

(Can't find the file)

It still doesn't work.

Sorry, Miss Ji.

It's OK.

Miss Li and Mr. Su

have gone to Jingxi.

We're doing a Plan B

just in case.

Go get me the instruction manual

of the printer.

You know mechanics

and I know the software.

Now, we aren't sure about the problem.

We have to check the software

and the hardware.

What? Have no confidence?

Miss Ji,

what if I make it worse?

Don't worry. I'm here for you.

Later, I will call

Beidi's maintenance men

and see if they can offer

some online guidance.

I'll go get the toolbox.

OK. I'll go get the instruction manual.
