Meet Yourself (2023) s01e13 Episode Script
Episode 13
[Meet yourself]
[Episode 13]
I can't write
Out of inspiration today?
Only inspiration can't
bring you a full-time job.
I've already lost
its inspiration for long.
Then how could you complete it?
I have to.
But how?
Based on my fortitude.
Insistence.
The zeal of burning my life.
Sounds hot-blooded.
And painful.
A movie says that
anguish is the soil of creation.
I agree.
What about water planting?
Excuse me.
It's a joke for I find
you're in bad mood.
Well, it's funny.
That's it.
So you should tell us
more and more often.
Though we can help
you nothing in writing,
we can help you
improve your mood.
I
I want to be a teacher.
Change your career?
I've written since the
last year of my college.
After graduation, I became a full-time author.
I was young at that time.
In the beginning, I was robust
and reckless.
I could complete
nearly 20,000 characters each day.
And earned some money.
After writing for several years,
I've developed some tricks.
My style became better.
So did my skills of telling stories.
But I couldn't write so fast then.
My favorite themes
are quite uncommon
so they're not popular.
No matter what plots I wrote,
I was always criticized.
I felt overwhelmed and frustrated
and I didn't know what to do.
Then I was thinking
to listen to my dad
to find a normal job
after I finish writing the book.
But you love writing novels!
But my parents
also worry about me.
An unpopular author like me,
I don't feel good about
myself of doing it well
if I want to try another
unpopular theme.
I don't know
whether I could get a better future or not.
Are my spring and
success waiting for me?
Actually, I'm a tacky person.
I want to earn so much
money, I want to be liked
and also I want success.
Who doesn't?
Everyone is like so.
That's it.
You're the first writer I know.
I used to believe you
didn't need to work
and could be rich and free
with so many readers' love.
All of you guys should be happy.
Few successful authors can.
Very rare.
Many people say online
authors could earn so much money
by selling copyrights every year.
But they belong to the numerator,
standing upper in the fraction.
One in a million.
I only belong to
the denominator, still trying to support myself.
But if you really can't,
couldn't you tell your readers
to suspend for a few days?
Is it a big matter?
Yes.
Authors like me attract
readers by serializing.
A few days?
Only three days
will crash the number of comments.
Out of ranking,
revenue will be halved.
Readers will soon run away.
You suspend
while others will update double.
Then yours will become rubbish.
But as long as your story is nice,
readers will wait for you.
But as long as you write well,
readers will wait for you.
It sounds like
"as if I have 30 million".
If so, I could get
a million annually
for profits.
"As long as I write well"
This premise has a huge gap
between 99% of the authors.
There's a natural moat.
So whenever someone asks me
about my job and my novels,
I don't know how
and what to tell them.
So it turns out like that.
I have some thoughts.
I don't know whether
they can help or not.
I admire someone like you,
having a favorite job
and pouring zeal into it.
Though you say you
love money and success,
I still believe you
will earn nothing
to complete the work
that could satisfy you
and bring you fulfillment and excitement.
Is that right?
Because ardor has weight.
It's absolutely not
something unimportant
Then again.
People like powerhouses.
They love the guys
who can be real with no flinch,
no matter what difficulties
and hardships they confront.
Many people have heroic dreams
but how many of them could be heroes?
We're regular guys.
We'll judge many
realistic factors
when facing life choices.
They're heavy.
Damai.
Don't blame yourself too much.
No matter what decision you make,
I'll always cheer for you.
So do I.
She is about to cry again.
Have your meal first.
It's getting cold.
It's so yummy.
It's yummy.
Nana.
Have a rest.
I'll clean them tomorrow.
Nana, what's going on?
I'm fine.
Why are you crying
after Damai feels better?
I
I just think
I'm sorry for her.
Nana.
Hello.
Well did you wash
the sheet for me?
I saw you put it in the laundry basket
so I washed them together.
Thank you.
I thought to wash it.
As I found someone was using it,
I decided to wash it later.
That's why I put it there.
Sorry for troubling you.
It doesn't matter.
The washing machine helps us a lot.
Not a big deal.
Let me hang it.
Thank you.
Hold there.
Okay.
Come on.
Damai, by the way.
What's your job?
I'm a freelancer.
Freelancer?
Designer?
I saw you've always
stayed in your room
Or an online live steamer?
No.
I write novels.
Internet author?
Keep it secret.
Don't be modest!
You're so awesome!
Writing a composition
has been my biggest
trouble since I was young.
I always pieced up an 800-character article
by all kinds of punctuation marks
and mood particles.
I was just reversed.
I used to control myself
not to write over 800.
Which website are your novels on?
I want to read your works.
Which type do you like?
I can recommend some for you.
Your interest should be prior.
Most of my friends
write sweet love stories.
It doesn't matter.
But I prefer Kung Fu
stories and thrillers.
But I just want to read your works.
It's uneasy for me
to live with an author.
Will you think I'm so gutless?
No.
You can read it.
So which website are your novels on?
I have no account.
I need to register one first.
You don't need to.
I'll send you a file.
You can read it by phone.
How can I?
I must pay for reading.
It's fine.
Only you can read it.
Just don't send it to others.
But I can't read for free.
You don't.
You've washed my sheet.
The washing machine did it.
It's not my work.
Of course, it's yours.
Let's go.
What do you want for lunch?
Let's eat together.
Everything is okay.
Are you off duty today?
One leave per week.
So what do you want?
Anything. It depends on you.
I
Shall I cook for you?
Can you cook?
God of Earth.
What about my Monkey King Golden Bar?
Monkey King.
Your Golden Bar is excellent
for it fits your hairstyle well!
Sis!
Warm yourself by the fire.
Call her "Damai".
Damai.
I see.
Sis Mai.
Come and warm yourself.
Damai, are you hungry?
Baked sweet potatoes
and corns here.
Have a seat!
Let me introduce them to you.
Come on.
This is Ma Qiushan, Mr. Ma.
Hello.
The one eating
corns is Hu Youyu.
He's a singer.
I'm a musician.
Fine. Musician.
Well, Sis Mai.
What's your job?
You're a singer.
She writes online novels
so she's an author.
Internet writer!
It's lucrative.
I saw online that
Internet writers
could earn 100 million a year!
Now, I see.
That's why you always stay indoors.
Your light is on at midnight.
For literary creation.
Now, I see.
Indoor girl. Night owl.
It matches.
You write books
while I write songs.
Essentially, we're peers
with a common language.
Let's chat more often later on.
Why not speak?
Why does she seem quiet?
Because you're too talkative.
Oh, I see.
Social phobia. It's popular, right?
Staying indoors too long.
Well, Sis Mai.
What's your pen name?
I want to read your work carefully
and learn from it.
Sorry.
I want to keep my sockpuppet secret.
Enjoy yourselves.
Do you want to
have anything else?
No. Corns enough.
I want to make myself some noodles.
Well
What's going on?
Sockpuppet?
Why keep it secret?
Privacy.
Strangers stay away.
Why keep it secret?
Isn't it good to
promote her works?
Nana.
Do you know her pen name?
I don't know.
Do you know what a sockpuppet is?
No.
Damai just wanted to tell me.
She must put trust in me at that time.
That's why she told me.
I didn't know
she's hard like that.
I fancied myself clever and thought
it's fine as long as I kept her pen name secret.
She doesn't blame you.
That's why I feel so sorry.
You can't always know
your best friend's mind.
Remember to treat her well later on.
Good morning, Damai.
What's going on?
Are you still sleepy?
Take it easy.
It's fine for them to know you're an author.
They don't know your pen name.
Right?
Thank you.
Thank?
Why do you thank me?
I cried out
when I read around Chapter 30.
Why?
The heroine thought
she would die there
so she swallowed the
evidence and hoped
it could be found during the autopsy.
Though I knew she wouldn't die,
I still cried for it was so moving.
That part gets a lot of criticism.
Why?
Some readers think she's so reckless,
while others think the hero is so useless.
I think there are few
romantic parts in the story
but the plots of solving cases
are so interesting.
Why does she need
to wait for his rescue?
She's powerful to save herself, okay?
Besides, he's her co-worker
and he's done all that he could do.
I think everyone has
his or her own taste.
As someone likes it, some won't.
Anyway, I do like it.
I'm serious.
Not kidding.
Thanks for your appreciation and support.
Thank again.
I should thank you
for you haven't asked me to pay.
Damai.
I find that
you really love cats.
So I thought
to send the wooden kitten to you.
So it could accompany you
while you're writing at night.
It's so cute!
Do you like it?
Yes! Thank you!
No more "thank you" please.
How many chapters have you finished?
More than 80.
Cheer on!
To be honest, I almost
finish reading them all.
Have it first. It's getting cold.
♫ Listen to the rain
falling into the silent forest ♫
♫ Enjoy the mountainous landscape at sunset ♫
♫ The raindrops on the roof
fall into the eyes secretly ♫
♫ The world is like a quiet island ♫
♫ The sky is turning bright silently ♫
♫ Waiting for the seabirds
to call forth the ripples ♫
♫ Waiting for the sunlight to shine into
my heart across the lake ♫
Liu.
Do me a favor.
Ask your friend in the clothing stall
when they will issue orders
to a small clothing factory.
Yes. Less than five people.
Fine. I'm waiting for your call.
Bye.
♫ The lost footsteps will be gradually erased ♫
♫ The light and shadow of four seasons ♫
♫ I've seen the meteor
that lights up the night sky ♫
♫ When the wind rises,
the sky will be cloudless ♫
Xu Hongdou.
Do you want to ride a horse?
No, thanks.
I'm here to see them.
Try to learn.
When the tiny grow
up, you can try.
Maybe I'm back at that time.
So
you've decided to go back to Beijing?
Maybe Shanghai.
Yeah.
Your sister is in Shanghai.
You can help each other.
Don't you think time flies?
Yes.
Have you gathered
the energy to restart?
Let me feel.
Not yet.
But it'll be soon.
So you have already let
the things in your heart go?
I thought to let it go.
But now I regret it.
And I can't do so.
All that we cherish have weight.
We need to habituate
to live with it.
We'll meet some
hardships and
sufferings in our life.
So that we could grow up.
Fortunately,
these pains
could vanish soon
Time will bring them away
and also heal us.
Time is the most uncharitable
and also amiable matter.
It's right.
It's almost been a year.
Modern life is fast-paced.
Actually, it's quite long.
As if it's yesterday.
Do you love him so deeply?
What?
I
Haven't I told you before?
I'm sharp-eyed, okay?
Disappointed in love, right?
Oh, come on.
You're such a beauty
and also good at working.
Why are you so sticky in love?
Resigned?
Is he your colleague?
Why didn't he resign?
Why are you looking at me?
Am I wrong?
No. You're all right.
It's the love of my life.
If so, I really need
to persuade you.
I refuse.
I'm back.
Wait! Where to go?
Back to the cafe.
Don't evade it!
You've gained the
power to restart, right?
Xu Hongdou!
♫ One step to stars ♫
Dine at my home this evening?
♫ One step to rainbow ♫
♫ We miss and then we hug ♫
Braised chicken.
♫ Breeze comes ♫
♫ The crush comes with it ♫
Braised chicken.
What about Braised Hongdou?
♫ On a rainy or sunny street ♫
Cut into shreds.
Not chunks.
I like onion chunks.
Why not just eat a whole?
My eyes.
Please don't!
Mr. Xie.
Hello, Hongdou.
Hi.
Just in time.
Dine together?
No thanks.
I need to have a
teleconference later.
Mr. Xie.
How is it?
Anything good?
I found you an order.
Really?
I called my former colleague, Shen Liang.
You've seen him before.
I've told him
about your project.
He's willing to offer you seed capital.
Get ready for the plan
and I'll set up a group.
I won't interfere anymore.
Fine!
Well
Xie!
To be honest,
from now on,
we're real brothers!
No, thanks.
Not too much.
Just be cousins.
No! We must be real!
Oh, my!
You always help me!
Fine, I'll leave you to work.
The meeting is waiting for me.
One more hug!
My dear brothers!
Come on!
My man!
Enjoy your chicken!
What's going on?
Is he going to set up a career?
He cares about common things?
Yes.
And far more than that.
Far more?
We've known each
other because of work
for many years.
Over 20 group-buying websites are online
only in this month.
Fierce competition.
Why fierce?
Because it's a promising market.
I'm not afraid of competing.
We're vying for the throne!
The end is unknown.
Bro!
I want to give them
a dimensional reduction strike.
If they need 20 people to be a group,
then I need 10.
If they need 10, I'll need five.
If they dare to choose five,
then I could have a one-man group!
Then how can you
negotiate the price with firms?
No.
We don't need to negotiate.
We'll pay for the price difference ourselves.
That's why I need
more and more funds.
Pay for it ourselves?
Yes.
Bro.
Eagles don't catch flies.
We must have foresight.
Do not only focus on
the pennies in front of us.
Open up!
We
will think over it.
Think
Fine.
We'll get the great cause.
Group purchase?
It's discussed many years ago.
I'd already converted it into cash.
Bro!
Do you know
what the most promising business is?
Paying for wisdom.
How can we get a consumption upgrade?
By knowledge.
The upgrade of immaterial wealth.
Of course, I won't like
those fear-mongers.
Fundamentally, I want to develop
people's aspiration for knowledge
and the demand for being a better person.
I know what you want to know.
Who will pay?
Flows bring us everything.
Advertisers pay for it
and I'll energize knowledge.
Paying for knowledge.
What a great thing!
I really admire myself.
Want one?
I don't smoke.
Excuse me, sir.
You can't have a cigarette here.
Young girl.
Let me popularize an idea for free.
This is called a cigar.
No cigar either.
Fine.
I could smell it, right?
Sharing business
It must be a great
and pioneering career.
Marvelous.
Most of the Red Ocean business now
could only solve things
from the surface.
You need to find its core.
What is the rarest in the world?
Resource.
So nothing couldn't be shared.
We need to share them fully.
Think of it.
In terms of various needs in our daily life,
we could develop so many subdivisions.
Gives full play to our talent.
Sharing business
benefits not only the economy,
but also our nation,
people and even the world.
What a majestic kindness!
As we're friends,
I want to share it with you.
Seed round
and angel round for you.
Because you couldn't
get the price now
in the subsequent rounds.
When my firm is on the market,
you could only buy from
secondary market even
if we're close friends.
I see.
I'm back to have a meeting to discuss it.
Fine.
But as soon as possible.
Chances wait for nobody.
Am I right, Sharing?
At that time,
I'll bring you to ring the bell together.
He's in luck
and could cash out at previous times.
Earned some money.
Then he became expansive.
The last time is the sharing economy.
He thought he finally found
a lifelong-struggle career
and invested all his money.
It's spoiled in the end.
As he suffered a blow at work,
his temperament totally changed.
From success to being immortal?
Immortal?
No. His mind state collapsed.
Anyone here?
Qin's father.
Brother.
Hi, Yao.
My grocery store
has opened for many years.
At that time, there were few shops here.
Look at here now.
Supermarkets.
24-hour convenience
stores under construction.
Besides, adults and
kids also shop online.
It's hard to run a grocery store.
I see.
You've considered everything.
I'm a far-sighted man.
Embroidery is a good skill
and also it's promising.
I agree.
Intangible cultural heritage
needs protection and succession.
So she must learn it!
And she must learn it well!
She listens to you more.
Please persuade her.
Second Bro.
You can't force her.
I think Qin is not interested in it.
No!
Go to tell her
that you'll propose a marriage to her
when she's good at it.
Let's coax her
to learn it first.
Right?
Yao!
Granny!
Yao.
Here's your braised chicken.
Hi, Honghong.
Hello, Second Bro.
Yao.
If you're now busy,
we'll talk to you when we get the plate.
It's fine.
Just in time.
He's just finished.
My friends are waiting
for me to play cards.
Well
Granny, I have to leave first.
Take care!
Take care.
I won't see you off.
Okay, fine.
Bye.
Bye-bye.
Have a seat.
Honghong.
You've told me
you want to set up a small clothing factory
and I find some materials
based on your data.
Then I made out a bill.
The cost that you expected
is still a little low.
Not only the fee
for making clothes
but also the fee of rental, water,
electricity, machines, materials,
and reworking cost.
Have a look.
And I know that
the orders for small
factories are not regular.
Sometimes rush orders
and sometimes no order.
You need to prepare
for it and think it over.
He's busy every day.
Everyone finds him with problems.
They think he's cultivated and knows a lot.
We live in the same village
so he tries his best to help.
[Dou: So do I. My relatives ask for
my help when they come to Beijing.]
[Yao: Qin's dad encouraged me
to be a love liar So tough]
[Dou: More handsome you're,
more responsibility you have.]
[Yao: Shall we have rice noodles tomorrow?]
[Dou: When?]
[Yao: Half past five.]
[Dou: Get out.]
♫ I know this. I'll be yours ♫
♫ And smile ♫
They said Yao's ex-girlfriend
came to find him from Beijing.
She lives in the yard now.
Have you seen her?
Ex-girlfriend?
Don't you know it?
She lives there and refuses to go.
She wants to make peace with him!
I saw they were at the riverside.
Riverside?
Why?
What else can they do?
You know.
Kissed?
I was embarrassed to see it.
Sis.
Tell me more details.
Don't you know?
Almost everyone in our village knows it.
That's it.
Someone said they're at the riverside to
Oh, no!
They should do it at home.
Why outside?
They should pay no attention to it.
Oh, I see.
On the first day when Hongdou came,
I went to Yao's home
to send some beef.
She was dining at his home.
Then I felt weird.
How could a guest of the yard
go to dine with him?
That's it.
So she must come here for him.
I've already found that.
Yao and she ate the
barbecue at Guanjun's stall,
exchanging amorous glances.
Already found?
Why haven't you told us early?
I went to ask Guanjun
whether they're together.
Guanjun refused it so
I dared not to tell you.
Everything matches.
Think about it.
The volunteers in the
past only did charring.
But Hongdou is different.
She did her best to make a staff manual
and manage his shop without salaries.
It's so obvious.
Right.
What?
You She's the landlady!
A landlady is the boss's wife.
So Sister Hongdou
is Uncle Yao's wife.
They're unmarried
so she's not his wife.
She should be his unmarried wife.
When they get married,
we could have Pork Stew!
I heard that they'd
been together in Beijing
for several years.
Afterward, Yao decided to work here
so they broke up.
Someone introduced several girls to him
but he chose none of them
because he couldn't forget her.
So does the girl.
That's why she came to find him.
Could they get married
when my pig is mature?
It's soon.
I've seen that
they went to find Ms. Huailan
to make wedding suits.
Your pig could catch the time.
Could catch it!
Great!
Granny!
Congratulations!
I'm waiting for Yao's wedding wine.
I'm now leaving.
In short,
the rumor becomes more and more detailed.
Now you're President Xie's infatuated fiancee.
If you don't marry, it's
quite hard to end up.
Hongdou.
It's for you.
For me?
Nice work.
Why me?
I'm poor and it's my only skill.
It's Children-Sending Guanyin.
As she holds two kids,
you can have twins if put it home.
Don't make more trouble.
Trouble?
Really for me?
Don't regret it.
I won't.
I'm not a master
so don't disdain it.
I won't.
I really like it.
Fine. I'm leaving.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Why did you accept it?
Xiaxia said it's his best wish.
Besides,
it can bring twins.
But how will you end it up?
End up?
I won't.
It's none of my business.
What are you watching?
We're watching the bride!
Bride?
That's it!
Where's the bride?
She's there!
Uncle Yao's future bride!
That's it!
So unique!
I agree!
Who asked it?
I don't know.

[Episode 13]
I can't write
Out of inspiration today?
Only inspiration can't
bring you a full-time job.
I've already lost
its inspiration for long.
Then how could you complete it?
I have to.
But how?
Based on my fortitude.
Insistence.
The zeal of burning my life.
Sounds hot-blooded.
And painful.
A movie says that
anguish is the soil of creation.
I agree.
What about water planting?
Excuse me.
It's a joke for I find
you're in bad mood.
Well, it's funny.
That's it.
So you should tell us
more and more often.
Though we can help
you nothing in writing,
we can help you
improve your mood.
I
I want to be a teacher.
Change your career?
I've written since the
last year of my college.
After graduation, I became a full-time author.
I was young at that time.
In the beginning, I was robust
and reckless.
I could complete
nearly 20,000 characters each day.
And earned some money.
After writing for several years,
I've developed some tricks.
My style became better.
So did my skills of telling stories.
But I couldn't write so fast then.
My favorite themes
are quite uncommon
so they're not popular.
No matter what plots I wrote,
I was always criticized.
I felt overwhelmed and frustrated
and I didn't know what to do.
Then I was thinking
to listen to my dad
to find a normal job
after I finish writing the book.
But you love writing novels!
But my parents
also worry about me.
An unpopular author like me,
I don't feel good about
myself of doing it well
if I want to try another
unpopular theme.
I don't know
whether I could get a better future or not.
Are my spring and
success waiting for me?
Actually, I'm a tacky person.
I want to earn so much
money, I want to be liked
and also I want success.
Who doesn't?
Everyone is like so.
That's it.
You're the first writer I know.
I used to believe you
didn't need to work
and could be rich and free
with so many readers' love.
All of you guys should be happy.
Few successful authors can.
Very rare.
Many people say online
authors could earn so much money
by selling copyrights every year.
But they belong to the numerator,
standing upper in the fraction.
One in a million.
I only belong to
the denominator, still trying to support myself.
But if you really can't,
couldn't you tell your readers
to suspend for a few days?
Is it a big matter?
Yes.
Authors like me attract
readers by serializing.
A few days?
Only three days
will crash the number of comments.
Out of ranking,
revenue will be halved.
Readers will soon run away.
You suspend
while others will update double.
Then yours will become rubbish.
But as long as your story is nice,
readers will wait for you.
But as long as you write well,
readers will wait for you.
It sounds like
"as if I have 30 million".
If so, I could get
a million annually
for profits.
"As long as I write well"
This premise has a huge gap
between 99% of the authors.
There's a natural moat.
So whenever someone asks me
about my job and my novels,
I don't know how
and what to tell them.
So it turns out like that.
I have some thoughts.
I don't know whether
they can help or not.
I admire someone like you,
having a favorite job
and pouring zeal into it.
Though you say you
love money and success,
I still believe you
will earn nothing
to complete the work
that could satisfy you
and bring you fulfillment and excitement.
Is that right?
Because ardor has weight.
It's absolutely not
something unimportant
Then again.
People like powerhouses.
They love the guys
who can be real with no flinch,
no matter what difficulties
and hardships they confront.
Many people have heroic dreams
but how many of them could be heroes?
We're regular guys.
We'll judge many
realistic factors
when facing life choices.
They're heavy.
Damai.
Don't blame yourself too much.
No matter what decision you make,
I'll always cheer for you.
So do I.
She is about to cry again.
Have your meal first.
It's getting cold.
It's so yummy.
It's yummy.
Nana.
Have a rest.
I'll clean them tomorrow.
Nana, what's going on?
I'm fine.
Why are you crying
after Damai feels better?
I
I just think
I'm sorry for her.
Nana.
Hello.
Well did you wash
the sheet for me?
I saw you put it in the laundry basket
so I washed them together.
Thank you.
I thought to wash it.
As I found someone was using it,
I decided to wash it later.
That's why I put it there.
Sorry for troubling you.
It doesn't matter.
The washing machine helps us a lot.
Not a big deal.
Let me hang it.
Thank you.
Hold there.
Okay.
Come on.
Damai, by the way.
What's your job?
I'm a freelancer.
Freelancer?
Designer?
I saw you've always
stayed in your room
Or an online live steamer?
No.
I write novels.
Internet author?
Keep it secret.
Don't be modest!
You're so awesome!
Writing a composition
has been my biggest
trouble since I was young.
I always pieced up an 800-character article
by all kinds of punctuation marks
and mood particles.
I was just reversed.
I used to control myself
not to write over 800.
Which website are your novels on?
I want to read your works.
Which type do you like?
I can recommend some for you.
Your interest should be prior.
Most of my friends
write sweet love stories.
It doesn't matter.
But I prefer Kung Fu
stories and thrillers.
But I just want to read your works.
It's uneasy for me
to live with an author.
Will you think I'm so gutless?
No.
You can read it.
So which website are your novels on?
I have no account.
I need to register one first.
You don't need to.
I'll send you a file.
You can read it by phone.
How can I?
I must pay for reading.
It's fine.
Only you can read it.
Just don't send it to others.
But I can't read for free.
You don't.
You've washed my sheet.
The washing machine did it.
It's not my work.
Of course, it's yours.
Let's go.
What do you want for lunch?
Let's eat together.
Everything is okay.
Are you off duty today?
One leave per week.
So what do you want?
Anything. It depends on you.
I
Shall I cook for you?
Can you cook?
God of Earth.
What about my Monkey King Golden Bar?
Monkey King.
Your Golden Bar is excellent
for it fits your hairstyle well!
Sis!
Warm yourself by the fire.
Call her "Damai".
Damai.
I see.
Sis Mai.
Come and warm yourself.
Damai, are you hungry?
Baked sweet potatoes
and corns here.
Have a seat!
Let me introduce them to you.
Come on.
This is Ma Qiushan, Mr. Ma.
Hello.
The one eating
corns is Hu Youyu.
He's a singer.
I'm a musician.
Fine. Musician.
Well, Sis Mai.
What's your job?
You're a singer.
She writes online novels
so she's an author.
Internet writer!
It's lucrative.
I saw online that
Internet writers
could earn 100 million a year!
Now, I see.
That's why you always stay indoors.
Your light is on at midnight.
For literary creation.
Now, I see.
Indoor girl. Night owl.
It matches.
You write books
while I write songs.
Essentially, we're peers
with a common language.
Let's chat more often later on.
Why not speak?
Why does she seem quiet?
Because you're too talkative.
Oh, I see.
Social phobia. It's popular, right?
Staying indoors too long.
Well, Sis Mai.
What's your pen name?
I want to read your work carefully
and learn from it.
Sorry.
I want to keep my sockpuppet secret.
Enjoy yourselves.
Do you want to
have anything else?
No. Corns enough.
I want to make myself some noodles.
Well
What's going on?
Sockpuppet?
Why keep it secret?
Privacy.
Strangers stay away.
Why keep it secret?
Isn't it good to
promote her works?
Nana.
Do you know her pen name?
I don't know.
Do you know what a sockpuppet is?
No.
Damai just wanted to tell me.
She must put trust in me at that time.
That's why she told me.
I didn't know
she's hard like that.
I fancied myself clever and thought
it's fine as long as I kept her pen name secret.
She doesn't blame you.
That's why I feel so sorry.
You can't always know
your best friend's mind.
Remember to treat her well later on.
Good morning, Damai.
What's going on?
Are you still sleepy?
Take it easy.
It's fine for them to know you're an author.
They don't know your pen name.
Right?
Thank you.
Thank?
Why do you thank me?
I cried out
when I read around Chapter 30.
Why?
The heroine thought
she would die there
so she swallowed the
evidence and hoped
it could be found during the autopsy.
Though I knew she wouldn't die,
I still cried for it was so moving.
That part gets a lot of criticism.
Why?
Some readers think she's so reckless,
while others think the hero is so useless.
I think there are few
romantic parts in the story
but the plots of solving cases
are so interesting.
Why does she need
to wait for his rescue?
She's powerful to save herself, okay?
Besides, he's her co-worker
and he's done all that he could do.
I think everyone has
his or her own taste.
As someone likes it, some won't.
Anyway, I do like it.
I'm serious.
Not kidding.
Thanks for your appreciation and support.
Thank again.
I should thank you
for you haven't asked me to pay.
Damai.
I find that
you really love cats.
So I thought
to send the wooden kitten to you.
So it could accompany you
while you're writing at night.
It's so cute!
Do you like it?
Yes! Thank you!
No more "thank you" please.
How many chapters have you finished?
More than 80.
Cheer on!
To be honest, I almost
finish reading them all.
Have it first. It's getting cold.

Liu.
Do me a favor.
Ask your friend in the clothing stall
when they will issue orders
to a small clothing factory.
Yes. Less than five people.
Fine. I'm waiting for your call.
Bye.

Xu Hongdou.
Do you want to ride a horse?
No, thanks.
I'm here to see them.
Try to learn.
When the tiny grow
up, you can try.
Maybe I'm back at that time.
So
you've decided to go back to Beijing?
Maybe Shanghai.
Yeah.
Your sister is in Shanghai.
You can help each other.
Don't you think time flies?
Yes.
Have you gathered
the energy to restart?
Let me feel.
Not yet.
But it'll be soon.
So you have already let
the things in your heart go?
I thought to let it go.
But now I regret it.
And I can't do so.
All that we cherish have weight.
We need to habituate
to live with it.
We'll meet some
hardships and
sufferings in our life.
So that we could grow up.
Fortunately,
these pains
could vanish soon
Time will bring them away
and also heal us.
Time is the most uncharitable
and also amiable matter.
It's right.
It's almost been a year.
Modern life is fast-paced.
Actually, it's quite long.
As if it's yesterday.
Do you love him so deeply?
What?
I
Haven't I told you before?
I'm sharp-eyed, okay?
Disappointed in love, right?
Oh, come on.
You're such a beauty
and also good at working.
Why are you so sticky in love?
Resigned?
Is he your colleague?
Why didn't he resign?
Why are you looking at me?
Am I wrong?
No. You're all right.
It's the love of my life.
If so, I really need
to persuade you.
I refuse.
I'm back.
Wait! Where to go?
Back to the cafe.
Don't evade it!
You've gained the
power to restart, right?
Xu Hongdou!
♫ One step to stars ♫
Dine at my home this evening?
♫ One step to rainbow ♫
♫ We miss and then we hug ♫
Braised chicken.
♫ Breeze comes ♫
♫ The crush comes with it ♫
Braised chicken.
What about Braised Hongdou?
♫ On a rainy or sunny street ♫
Cut into shreds.
Not chunks.
I like onion chunks.
Why not just eat a whole?
My eyes.
Please don't!
Mr. Xie.
Hello, Hongdou.
Hi.
Just in time.
Dine together?
No thanks.
I need to have a
teleconference later.
Mr. Xie.
How is it?
Anything good?
I found you an order.
Really?
I called my former colleague, Shen Liang.
You've seen him before.
I've told him
about your project.
He's willing to offer you seed capital.
Get ready for the plan
and I'll set up a group.
I won't interfere anymore.
Fine!
Well
Xie!
To be honest,
from now on,
we're real brothers!
No, thanks.
Not too much.
Just be cousins.
No! We must be real!
Oh, my!
You always help me!
Fine, I'll leave you to work.
The meeting is waiting for me.
One more hug!
My dear brothers!
Come on!
My man!
Enjoy your chicken!
What's going on?
Is he going to set up a career?
He cares about common things?
Yes.
And far more than that.
Far more?
We've known each
other because of work
for many years.
Over 20 group-buying websites are online
only in this month.
Fierce competition.
Why fierce?
Because it's a promising market.
I'm not afraid of competing.
We're vying for the throne!
The end is unknown.
Bro!
I want to give them
a dimensional reduction strike.
If they need 20 people to be a group,
then I need 10.
If they need 10, I'll need five.
If they dare to choose five,
then I could have a one-man group!
Then how can you
negotiate the price with firms?
No.
We don't need to negotiate.
We'll pay for the price difference ourselves.
That's why I need
more and more funds.
Pay for it ourselves?
Yes.
Bro.
Eagles don't catch flies.
We must have foresight.
Do not only focus on
the pennies in front of us.
Open up!
We
will think over it.
Think
Fine.
We'll get the great cause.
Group purchase?
It's discussed many years ago.
I'd already converted it into cash.
Bro!
Do you know
what the most promising business is?
Paying for wisdom.
How can we get a consumption upgrade?
By knowledge.
The upgrade of immaterial wealth.
Of course, I won't like
those fear-mongers.
Fundamentally, I want to develop
people's aspiration for knowledge
and the demand for being a better person.
I know what you want to know.
Who will pay?
Flows bring us everything.
Advertisers pay for it
and I'll energize knowledge.
Paying for knowledge.
What a great thing!
I really admire myself.
Want one?
I don't smoke.
Excuse me, sir.
You can't have a cigarette here.
Young girl.
Let me popularize an idea for free.
This is called a cigar.
No cigar either.
Fine.
I could smell it, right?
Sharing business
It must be a great
and pioneering career.
Marvelous.
Most of the Red Ocean business now
could only solve things
from the surface.
You need to find its core.
What is the rarest in the world?
Resource.
So nothing couldn't be shared.
We need to share them fully.
Think of it.
In terms of various needs in our daily life,
we could develop so many subdivisions.
Gives full play to our talent.
Sharing business
benefits not only the economy,
but also our nation,
people and even the world.
What a majestic kindness!
As we're friends,
I want to share it with you.
Seed round
and angel round for you.
Because you couldn't
get the price now
in the subsequent rounds.
When my firm is on the market,
you could only buy from
secondary market even
if we're close friends.
I see.
I'm back to have a meeting to discuss it.
Fine.
But as soon as possible.
Chances wait for nobody.
Am I right, Sharing?
At that time,
I'll bring you to ring the bell together.
He's in luck
and could cash out at previous times.
Earned some money.
Then he became expansive.
The last time is the sharing economy.
He thought he finally found
a lifelong-struggle career
and invested all his money.
It's spoiled in the end.
As he suffered a blow at work,
his temperament totally changed.
From success to being immortal?
Immortal?
No. His mind state collapsed.
Anyone here?
Qin's father.
Brother.
Hi, Yao.
My grocery store
has opened for many years.
At that time, there were few shops here.
Look at here now.
Supermarkets.
24-hour convenience
stores under construction.
Besides, adults and
kids also shop online.
It's hard to run a grocery store.
I see.
You've considered everything.
I'm a far-sighted man.
Embroidery is a good skill
and also it's promising.
I agree.
Intangible cultural heritage
needs protection and succession.
So she must learn it!
And she must learn it well!
She listens to you more.
Please persuade her.
Second Bro.
You can't force her.
I think Qin is not interested in it.
No!
Go to tell her
that you'll propose a marriage to her
when she's good at it.
Let's coax her
to learn it first.
Right?
Yao!
Granny!
Yao.
Here's your braised chicken.
Hi, Honghong.
Hello, Second Bro.
Yao.
If you're now busy,
we'll talk to you when we get the plate.
It's fine.
Just in time.
He's just finished.
My friends are waiting
for me to play cards.
Well
Granny, I have to leave first.
Take care!
Take care.
I won't see you off.
Okay, fine.
Bye.
Bye-bye.
Have a seat.
Honghong.
You've told me
you want to set up a small clothing factory
and I find some materials
based on your data.
Then I made out a bill.
The cost that you expected
is still a little low.
Not only the fee
for making clothes
but also the fee of rental, water,
electricity, machines, materials,
and reworking cost.
Have a look.
And I know that
the orders for small
factories are not regular.
Sometimes rush orders
and sometimes no order.
You need to prepare
for it and think it over.
He's busy every day.
Everyone finds him with problems.
They think he's cultivated and knows a lot.
We live in the same village
so he tries his best to help.
[Dou: So do I. My relatives ask for
my help when they come to Beijing.]
[Yao: Qin's dad encouraged me
to be a love liar So tough]
[Dou: More handsome you're,
more responsibility you have.]
[Yao: Shall we have rice noodles tomorrow?]
[Dou: When?]
[Yao: Half past five.]
[Dou: Get out.]
♫ I know this. I'll be yours ♫
♫ And smile ♫
They said Yao's ex-girlfriend
came to find him from Beijing.
She lives in the yard now.
Have you seen her?
Ex-girlfriend?
Don't you know it?
She lives there and refuses to go.
She wants to make peace with him!
I saw they were at the riverside.
Riverside?
Why?
What else can they do?
You know.
Kissed?
I was embarrassed to see it.
Sis.
Tell me more details.
Don't you know?
Almost everyone in our village knows it.
That's it.
Someone said they're at the riverside to
Oh, no!
They should do it at home.
Why outside?
They should pay no attention to it.
Oh, I see.
On the first day when Hongdou came,
I went to Yao's home
to send some beef.
She was dining at his home.
Then I felt weird.
How could a guest of the yard
go to dine with him?
That's it.
So she must come here for him.
I've already found that.
Yao and she ate the
barbecue at Guanjun's stall,
exchanging amorous glances.
Already found?
Why haven't you told us early?
I went to ask Guanjun
whether they're together.
Guanjun refused it so
I dared not to tell you.
Everything matches.
Think about it.
The volunteers in the
past only did charring.
But Hongdou is different.
She did her best to make a staff manual
and manage his shop without salaries.
It's so obvious.
Right.
What?
You She's the landlady!
A landlady is the boss's wife.
So Sister Hongdou
is Uncle Yao's wife.
They're unmarried
so she's not his wife.
She should be his unmarried wife.
When they get married,
we could have Pork Stew!
I heard that they'd
been together in Beijing
for several years.
Afterward, Yao decided to work here
so they broke up.
Someone introduced several girls to him
but he chose none of them
because he couldn't forget her.
So does the girl.
That's why she came to find him.
Could they get married
when my pig is mature?
It's soon.
I've seen that
they went to find Ms. Huailan
to make wedding suits.
Your pig could catch the time.
Could catch it!
Great!
Granny!
Congratulations!
I'm waiting for Yao's wedding wine.
I'm now leaving.
In short,
the rumor becomes more and more detailed.
Now you're President Xie's infatuated fiancee.
If you don't marry, it's
quite hard to end up.
Hongdou.
It's for you.
For me?
Nice work.
Why me?
I'm poor and it's my only skill.
It's Children-Sending Guanyin.
As she holds two kids,
you can have twins if put it home.
Don't make more trouble.
Trouble?
Really for me?
Don't regret it.
I won't.
I'm not a master
so don't disdain it.
I won't.
I really like it.
Fine. I'm leaving.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Why did you accept it?
Xiaxia said it's his best wish.
Besides,
it can bring twins.
But how will you end it up?
End up?
I won't.
It's none of my business.
What are you watching?
We're watching the bride!
Bride?
That's it!
Where's the bride?
She's there!
Uncle Yao's future bride!
That's it!
So unique!
I agree!
Who asked it?
I don't know.
