00:00:00Whoa, what are you?
00:00:12Hide.
00:00:16Go, go, go. Move now.
00:00:22She's shopping so casually.
00:00:24First time I've seen a date at the supermarket.
00:00:26Shopping together?
00:00:27They look like they already live together.
00:00:30Is that really Mr. Zhang?
00:00:35Doesn't seem like him.
00:00:36But that woman must be her.
00:00:38Look at how she moves.
00:00:39Definitely her.
00:00:40You guys stay here.
00:00:41Where are you going?
00:00:42Guo? Where?
00:00:43They sell bread over there.
00:00:45Let's get some for breakfast.
00:00:47But...
00:00:48Come on, this is the critical moment.
00:00:51Terrible timing.
00:00:54They're heading to checkout.
00:00:56Let's follow them.
00:01:00That's not Zhang Takai's car.
00:01:08She's surprisingly good at counter-surveillance.
00:01:11What are you waiting for?
00:01:12Follow her.
00:01:13Get in the car.
00:01:14Hurry.
00:01:14She's going to the bar.
00:01:38She's going to the bar.
00:01:38She's going to the bar.
00:01:40Hi, senior.
00:01:50Why are you drinking so much?
00:01:53Today's a happy day.
00:01:54Is there something to celebrate?
00:01:59I won't drink.
00:02:01Not feeling well today.
00:02:03Just stopped by to see you.
00:02:05I'll leave soon.
00:02:07Lisa.
00:02:07I got divorced.
00:02:12Don't you think that's worth celebrating?
00:02:16Why so sudden?
00:02:17I thought your marriage was good.
00:02:21It was all for show.
00:02:23After we married, we just worked constantly.
00:02:26Hardly spent time together, neglected our home.
00:02:29The feelings faded.
00:02:30We couldn't even bother fighting anymore.
00:02:36Finalize the paperwork this afternoon.
00:02:39Well, since it's done, all you can do is move forward.
00:02:45I don't know how to comfort you, but I believe the right person is still out there waiting.
00:02:50I thought, at my age, everything would be settled.
00:02:58But what you just said makes me feel...
00:03:03It's all just fate.
00:03:08Maybe.
00:03:13You could sit with me a while.
00:03:15Okay?
00:03:15Is that Fatty Zhang from your company?
00:03:22Look at his size.
00:03:24Who else could it be?
00:03:25This woman is something else.
00:03:27She was with a different guy earlier.
00:03:28Now she's with Fatty Zhang.
00:03:30Damn.
00:03:31I'm actually impressed.
00:03:32She's cycling through men like crazy.
00:03:34Told you, this woman isn't simple.
00:03:37More unpredictable than you.
00:03:39Oh, come on.
00:03:40No way she's worse than me.
00:03:42Hey, we can't see clearly from here.
00:03:48Jason, come on.
00:03:49Let's move closer.
00:03:50She doesn't know us.
00:03:53Just don't blow our cover.
00:03:55Stay coordinated.
00:03:56We're professionals at this.
00:03:58No problems.
00:03:58Let's move.
00:03:59Stay cool.
00:03:59I understand your pain and your feeling now.
00:04:10But drinking won't solve anything.
00:04:13You need to stay strong.
00:04:15If the love is gone,
00:04:17there's no point holding on.
00:04:20Please, drink less.
00:04:22Actually, this drink isn't
00:04:25for my ex-wife.
00:04:29But for myself.
00:04:31I have so many regrets.
00:04:33Why did I marry someone I didn't love?
00:04:37Why did I bury myself in work?
00:04:40And miss my chance at happiness?
00:04:43Then one day,
00:04:45something in my heart
00:04:46hit me hard.
00:04:48I realized
00:04:51I don't want to give up.
00:05:01Lisa,
00:05:02know when it happened?
00:05:07Your first day at the company.
00:05:09You're drunk.
00:05:10I'm not drunk.
00:05:11I thought you were special
00:05:13back in America.
00:05:14But by some strange chance,
00:05:16I didn't get to stay in America.
00:05:17When I heard you wanted to quit,
00:05:20I had to
00:05:21bring you back.
00:05:24Let me ask you something.
00:05:27Why did you recruit me
00:05:28to Intelligent Automation Technology?
00:05:30Was it because of our connection?
00:05:32Or because you recognize
00:05:33my work capabilities?
00:05:35Your skills, of course.
00:05:36I see.
00:05:37Then I think you should know
00:05:38how I operate.
00:05:40I never mix business with personal.
00:05:42I'm here tonight simply because
00:05:44we're friends.
00:05:45Alcohol makes people say
00:05:48things they don't mean.
00:05:49I'll consider everything
00:05:51you just said
00:05:51as friendly exaggeration.
00:05:54I'm truly grateful
00:05:55to have such an honorable
00:05:57friend like you.
00:06:06What's happening?
00:06:07Any updates?
00:06:08Confirmed.
00:06:08It's Fatty Jang.
00:06:09Definitely him.
00:06:10What were they talking about?
00:06:12Couldn't hear a thing.
00:06:16I've paid the bill.
00:06:18Let me take you home.
00:06:22They're leaving.
00:06:25They're on the move.
00:06:27Go.
00:06:27Follow them.
00:06:28Hurry up.
00:06:43I drank.
00:06:45Way too much tonight.
00:06:47It's fine.
00:06:48Could you give me a hug?
00:06:51I'm sorry.
00:06:52I can't do that.
00:06:53I can't do that.
00:06:53Got it.
00:07:07I got the photo.
00:07:07Look.
00:07:08I captured everything perfectly.
00:07:10See?
00:07:11They're hugging each other.
00:07:12Absolutely perfect, right?
00:07:13How can you call it perfect
00:07:14when you haven't even edited it yet?
00:07:17You again?
00:07:17What do you want now?
00:07:19Hand over your phone immediately.
00:07:20Or I'm calling the police.
00:07:22Wait a minute.
00:07:22Why would you need to call the police?
00:07:24This is a clear violation of our privacy rights.
00:07:26According to Article 42 of the law,
00:07:28such behavior can result in detention of up to five days.
00:07:31Or a fine not exceeding 500 yuan.
00:07:33Depending on the-
00:07:33Sorry, could you pause for a second?
00:07:35Photographing the cityscape.
00:07:36How could you possibly know if we captured anyone in particular?
00:07:39I saw him pointing his camera at people with my own eyes.
00:07:42Stop arguing with her.
00:07:43500 yuan.
00:07:44Phoenix, you pay her.
00:07:45What the hell?
00:07:45Why should I be the one to pay?
00:07:48Blackmailing us?
00:07:48You're acting so tough now.
00:07:51But I remember you weren't like this back in Sonya.
00:07:53Here, the exact amount.
00:07:54Take it.
00:07:56Who exactly are you?
00:07:58That's none of your business.
00:07:59But among you three?
00:08:02There's a pervert named Yannick Tong, right?
00:08:05You little brat have some nerve.
00:08:08Coming at us directly like this?
00:08:10Fine, take a guess then.
00:08:11Which one of us do you think is Yannick?
00:08:13I don't need to guess.
00:08:14Clearly it's not you.
00:08:15You ruined my movie experience last time, when I spotted you at the theater.
00:08:19Can't even handle basic situations.
00:08:21How could someone so incompetent be an engineer?
00:08:25What's so funny?
00:08:26That fake smile of yours is as obvious as rented designer clothes.
00:08:30You talk big, but you're just a playboy.
00:08:32Impressive on the surface.
00:08:33Rotten inside.
00:08:34With skills like yours, how could you possibly compete with our Lisa?
00:08:38Quite the tongue you've got there.
00:08:39Jason.
00:08:40Yes?
00:08:41Shut her up.
00:08:41Yes.
00:08:42Keep talking and I'll make sure you never father children.
00:08:45As for you, with your handsome features and arrogant demeanor.
00:08:49Thinking you're so cool, like the world owes you something.
00:08:52But your eyes are full of malice and resentment.
00:08:54You're empty inside.
00:08:56The classic signs of a refined degenerate.
00:08:59You're the king of scumbags.
00:09:00Yannick Tong.
00:09:04Let me make this clear.
00:09:06Just because you're a girl, with pretty curly hair, I won't take this insult lightly.
00:09:10So what?
00:09:11Fine then.
00:09:11I appreciate your colorful description of me.
00:09:14Now delete those photos, or I guarantee none of you are leaving here tonight.
00:09:18Don't get cocky.
00:09:20I, Jason Lee, never hit women.
00:09:21But for you...
00:09:23Go ahead, hit me.
00:09:26Think I won't dare?
00:09:28Wait, hold on.
00:09:29Let me find the perfect angle.
00:09:31To document this for social media, okay?
00:09:33Come on then.
00:09:34Enough.
00:09:35We can't win against this blackmailer.
00:09:37Let's just go.
00:09:38Think you can just walk away?
00:09:40Delete those photos first.
00:09:41You just can't let this go, can you?
00:09:43Why are you here?
00:09:43I came to pick you up and caught these three sneaking photos of you.
00:09:49Nonsense.
00:09:49We were just having drinks inside, and came out to take some night scenery shots.
00:09:54What's the problem?
00:09:54Were you following me?
00:09:57No.
00:09:58Why would we follow you for no reason?
00:10:01I told you we were here drinking.
00:10:03Oh, really?
00:10:03What were you drinking?
00:10:05Beer.
00:10:06It's a whiskey bar.
00:10:08What a coincidence you came here for beer.
00:10:10Since when can't whiskey bars serve beer?
00:10:12Right.
00:10:13Why do you even care?
00:10:15You're being childish.
00:10:17Yes, I am.
00:10:19I happened to see you...
00:10:21giving Mr. Jiang...
00:10:23a very warm hug earlier.
00:10:26You saw it.
00:10:26Happy now?
00:10:27I have nothing to hide.
00:10:29You hug him with a clear conscience?
00:10:35Yannick?
00:10:36We've hugged too.
00:10:37We even shared a bed once.
00:10:39Does that mean something's going on between us?
00:10:48You actually believe her?
00:10:56Calculator?
00:10:59Dog-eared book?
00:11:09Oh my god, it really is you.
00:11:12It's been so long.
00:11:13I really miss you.
00:11:15How have you been?
00:11:17I'm doing well.
00:11:19Wait, what's going on here?
00:11:20You know these three?
00:11:21You know these three?
00:11:21What are you staring at?
00:11:29Even if Lisa knows your friend,
00:11:31that doesn't change the fact you're her enemies.
00:11:33Delete those photos now.
00:11:35Secretly dating the boss?
00:11:37That's our private life.
00:11:38None of your concern.
00:11:40Did I interfere when you were tricking that young lady?
00:11:43If you've got so much free time,
00:11:44why not study Middle East peace talks?
00:11:46Or research which planet might suit you better.
00:11:48How about that?
00:11:49What nonsense are you spouting?
00:11:52Don't just go speechless when you lose an argument.
00:11:54Try reading a book sometime.
00:11:55I'll let you have this one.
00:11:57A gentleman doesn't fight with women.
00:11:58Why is Miss not dating tonight so harsh on men?
00:12:14Did some guy break her heart?
00:12:16What are you mumbling about?
00:12:18None of your business.
00:12:19I said you're the most beautiful woman in the world, okay?
00:12:24World's dumbest man.
00:12:31Just stop arguing with her.
00:12:33You're completely outmatched.
00:12:35There's no winning against her wit.
00:12:37Let me ask you something.
00:12:39Do you know this super-buzzed hair person?
00:12:42How would I know her?
00:12:43Never heard of her.
00:12:44I see.
00:13:09I never expected Lisa would be this close with Chad.
00:13:12Are they playing me?
00:13:17This is all a misunderstanding.
00:13:19I apologize for my friends.
00:13:23Jason.
00:13:24Delete those photos right now.
00:13:25Deleted.
00:13:26See?
00:13:27All gone.
00:13:27Yannick.
00:13:33Only because you're Chad's friend.
00:13:35I'll let this slide.
00:13:37But you've managed to disappoint me yet again.
00:13:39You already think poorly of me.
00:13:40Makes no difference either way.
00:13:42Hey, brat.
00:13:43Watch your mouth.
00:13:44Karma's a bitch.
00:13:45Shut up.
00:13:46Modern giant babies should read more books.
00:13:50Let's go.
00:13:53See you.
00:13:54No.
00:14:18We'll go easy on you if you confess now.
00:14:20Otherwise, the consequences will be severe.
00:14:22Chad.
00:14:23Chad.
00:14:23I never expected you'd be the first trader among our group of four.
00:14:28Since when am I a trader?
00:14:30I knew Lisa.
00:14:31Long before any of you.
00:14:33My dad was redeployed that time, so I transferred to another school.
00:14:37I switched schools and came to Shanghai with him.
00:14:38That's how Lisa and I became high school classmates.
00:14:41We were even deskmates.
00:14:42After graduation, she went to America.
00:14:44She's been there for over 10 years, and we lost touch for over 10 years.
00:14:48Back then, she was amazing at math.
00:14:50That's why I called her calculator.
00:14:51And since I always read books until they fell apart, she nicknamed me Dog-Eared Book.
00:14:58Yeah.
00:14:59How touching.
00:15:02And this justifies your betrayal?
00:15:05At the time, I didn't know.
00:15:06She was the person involved with you back in Sonya, okay?
00:15:09I hadn't seen her in years.
00:15:11Today was literally the first time.
00:15:13We've met since high school.
00:15:14I see.
00:15:16You're being unusually honest now.
00:15:18Right?
00:15:20But more importantly,
00:15:22before she met Fatty Zhang,
00:15:24who was that man
00:15:25she was shopping with at the supermarket?
00:15:29I forgot to ask her about that.
00:15:30Oh, for God's sake.
00:15:31All right, Guo.
00:15:34Answer me honestly.
00:15:35Whose side are you on?
00:15:38Mine or hers?
00:15:40Do you even need to ask?
00:15:42The answer should be obvious.
00:15:45Exactly.
00:15:46I'll always stand on the side of truth and justice.
00:15:49Screw you, Guo.
00:15:50You're supposed to back your brothers.
00:15:52Give me a break.
00:15:53Whose side would you choose?
00:15:54Whose side?
00:15:54Wait, I've got it.
00:16:02He's that glasses-wearing guy from your photo album.
00:16:05Yes.
00:16:05We went to high school together.
00:16:07He's now a lecturer at Bolly University.
00:16:10But the way you looked at him,
00:16:12something felt off.
00:16:15What do you mean?
00:16:18You might not noticed.
00:16:19Your eyes had this warmth.
00:16:22Is he single?
00:16:23Why does that matter?
00:16:28You were deskmates for three years.
00:16:29Reunited after a decade.
00:16:31Both unattached.
00:16:32Perfect chance to rekindle something.
00:16:34Xenia.
00:16:35Must you play matchmaker?
00:16:37Every time you meet a single man?
00:16:39What?
00:16:40You think I'll die alone?
00:16:41I just think your romantic destiny
00:16:43is completely twisted.
00:16:45Look at this mess.
00:16:46Your former close classmate
00:16:47is now your greatest enemy.
00:16:49And he actually went to college
00:16:50with that pervert.
00:16:52Isn't that absurd?
00:16:53Honestly, I never imagined
00:16:54my high school best friend
00:16:57would end up as Yannick's college mate.
00:17:02What about the other two?
00:17:03Did they all go
00:17:04to the same university?
00:17:05How should I know?
00:17:06Probably.
00:17:08My god.
00:17:09Just look at these four.
00:17:10One four-eyed nerd.
00:17:11One looks like a knock-off designer brand.
00:17:13He's wearing rented designer outfit, right?
00:17:15One king of scumbags.
00:17:16And the last one,
00:17:18I won't even bother.
00:17:22Xenia.
00:17:23Xenia,
00:17:23I'm laughing so hard
00:17:24my mask might fall off.
00:17:26Wait.
00:17:26Stop laughing.
00:17:28What exactly do you mean
00:17:29by rented designer outfit?
00:17:31Do you love it?
00:17:42I love it.

00:18:07closest buddy used to be someone's deskmate for three whole years

00:21:40then I'm ordering the expensive dishes expensive dishes
00:21:47fine you're paying me why I tutored you all through school this won't do your treat
00:21:56just kidding my salary is modest but order whatever you like waitress
00:22:04two green teas please and I'd like and all 12 Suheng signature dishes
00:22:11thank you
00:22:14impressive dog-eared book you've become more outgoing than before
00:22:22you adapt to your company Yannick and the others are lively I seem dull by comparison when I'm with them
00:22:30they're bad influences can we not mention others during our reunion
00:22:35taboo subject
00:22:37absolutely forbidden
00:22:38fine then
00:22:40when I think about it I'm truly grateful to you
00:22:43if not for your help back then I'd probably still be confusing theorems with axioms to this day
00:22:49when we were children time seemed to crawl by so slowly now that we're adults the years
00:22:56pass in the blink of an eye I can't help feeling I've aged considerably
00:23:00who told you that
00:23:01actually
00:23:02you haven't changed much at all
00:23:05though we haven't met in over a decade
00:23:07you still have that same bookish look about you
00:23:09you were in America for more than 10 years
00:23:12yet never wrote me a single letter
00:23:14several classmates claimed you'd married someone overseas
00:23:17was there any truth to that
00:23:18you actually believe those rumors
00:23:20so are you single now
00:23:25since when did you become such a gossip
00:23:29those friends of yours really are a bad influence on you
00:23:32seems there's long-standing animosity between her and Yannick
00:23:35I believe I've made the correct decision here
00:23:38if you're hungry you can start eating as soon as the dishes arrive
00:23:43all right
00:23:43no what's so urgent it can't wait
00:23:51I'm currently at an extremely important lunch meeting
00:23:57I've actually arranged for someone to join you
00:23:59who exactly
00:24:00hey just stay calm
00:24:08I did this for your benefit
00:24:11can't you simply go in and speak with her properly
00:24:14are you completely unaware of the nature of my relationship with her
00:24:17what possible common ground could we have
00:24:19I understand perfectly
00:24:20that's precisely why I arranged this
00:24:22regardless of personal feelings
00:24:25she's now the company manager
00:24:27you're superior correct
00:24:29can't you be professional about this
00:24:32we're colleagues
00:24:33that's all
00:24:34our interactions should remain strictly work-related
00:24:36are you truly my friend
00:24:41of course I am
00:24:43then trust me just this once
00:24:45listen to me for this single occasion all right
00:24:47the only reason I'm willing to do this
00:24:51to even step through that door
00:24:53is out of respect for our friendship
00:24:54but there's one non-negotiable condition
00:24:56I will never concede to her
00:24:58I know I understand completely
00:25:00no one could ever let you do that
00:25:02let's go Master Tong
00:25:04good afternoon Mrs. Xu
00:25:11this is unexpected
00:25:17I'm fully aware of the tensions between you and Tong
00:25:22but you're both dear friends of mine
00:25:25this situation puts me in an impossible position
00:25:28could I ask this one favor
00:25:31let's simply sit down
00:25:33and share this meal civilly
00:25:34whatever disagreements exist
00:25:36can't we discuss them rationally
00:25:38okay
00:25:39there are no misunderstandings between
00:25:41Engineer Tong and myself
00:25:42indeed
00:25:44no misunderstandings whatsoever
00:25:46not at all
00:25:48enough
00:25:51you were my high school friend
00:25:53and you were my college roommate
00:25:55do you imagine I don't know you both
00:25:58your admirable qualities deserve emulation
00:26:02the less desirable traits
00:26:04look Miss Xu appears fatigued
00:26:06perhaps we shouldn't overtax her
00:26:07reconciliation is it
00:26:09here Mrs. Xu
00:26:11for Chad's sake
00:26:23very well
00:26:27Engineer Tong
00:26:28let me be perfectly clear
00:26:30I bear no personal bias against you
00:26:32I'll support your research project professionally
00:26:36but I won't curry favor
00:26:38your team's recent aggressive approach
00:26:41gives me serious reservations
00:26:42in terms of stable output
00:26:44Derek's team currently demonstrates
00:26:46more reliable performance metrics
00:26:48enough
00:26:48aren't you exhausted repeating
00:26:51there remains one month
00:26:54precisely
00:26:5522 days and 20 hours to be exact
00:26:57so
00:26:58when that time elapses
00:27:00will it come to open conflict
00:27:02if he fails to deliver on schedule
00:27:06resignation will be the only honorable option
00:27:08Miss Xu
00:27:09there's something I must tell you
00:27:13sometimes what we perceive
00:27:14may not reflect reality
00:27:16perhaps
00:27:18I misjudged your character
00:27:20just as possibly
00:27:22you fundamentally misunderstood mine
00:27:27no
00:27:30dog-eared book

00:28:41what exactly was i supposed to eat no listen i went downstairs earlier to get your meal
00:28:50that's when i encountered your friend the university lecturer mr guac correct i saw
00:28:55him carrying takeout and assumed it was for you so i didn't place another order understood
00:29:00return to your duties
00:29:09chen's pan fried buns
00:29:15that little shop we used to frequent run by that elderly couple
00:29:18yes though now their son and daughter-in-law have joined the business
00:29:23they've expanded opened several branches
00:29:26you still remember it back when they were just a street stall
00:29:30i told them they'd eventually expand
00:29:32of course i remember that day the owner's face went completely stiff
00:29:36he thought we were joking with him the idea of opening branches was beyond his wildest dreams
00:29:43but your business instincts have always been spot on
00:29:49i wish that were true
00:29:51maybe then he'd actually listen to me
00:29:54seriously every sentence circles back to tong
00:29:58look at you two
00:30:00it's a forbidden topic
00:30:02there's no such thing as free favors
00:30:08bringing me midnight snacks

00:30:14playing the mediator now
00:30:15free favors

00:31:53enough mocking all right

00:31:57at least that would make me feel better
00:32:00guo

00:32:39guo
00:32:47you still haven't answered my question from before
00:32:49no tong
00:32:52i think you've misunderstood the situation
00:32:55lisa and i
00:32:57share a special connection
00:32:58without her help
00:33:00i might never have gotten into
00:33:03boli university
00:33:03oh right
00:33:05remember when i told you
00:33:08why i chose history
00:33:09it's because you were terrible at math
00:33:11only scored 90 on the college entrance exam
00:33:13and that passing grade
00:33:16mostly thanks to lisa
00:33:18really
00:33:19back then lisa was top of our class
00:33:22we were desk mates in junior year
00:33:25when we separated for senior year
00:33:27she still tutored me during breaks
00:33:29and evening study sessions
00:33:31she helped me a lot back then
00:33:32that's how i scraped through math
00:33:35tell me honestly
00:33:40what was she really like back then
00:33:43and what do you know
00:33:45about her family background
00:33:47all i know is
00:33:48she came from an ordinary family
00:33:51but she's always been fiercely independent
00:33:55exceptionally self-sufficient
00:33:56why the sudden interest
00:33:59just gathering intel on my adversary
00:34:02but i can say this with certainty
00:34:05lisa has always been genuine
00:34:08and kind-hearted
00:34:10she'd never deliberately make life difficult for anyone
00:34:14i'd stake my honor on that
00:34:15everything you're describing is ancient history
00:34:18don't you realize
00:34:19people can change dramatically
00:34:22the core of a person doesn't change
00:34:25actually lisa made herself perfectly clear today
00:34:29she's strictly professional
00:34:30if you want her approval
00:34:33you'll have to earn it through results
00:34:36who are you
00:34:39the youngest chief engineer in the industry
00:34:42you've won mit
00:34:44artificial intelligence design award before
00:34:46mr guo
00:34:47you're quite the motivational speaker
00:34:50really
00:34:51you mean
00:34:53my pep talk help
00:34:55i feel completely reinvigorated
00:34:56it's lisa
00:35:07she's inviting me to a movie tomorrow
00:35:12as thanks for today
00:35:13it's that new romance
00:35:16if we aren't happy in new york
00:35:18want to join us
00:35:22i've got overtime tomorrow
00:35:23then i'll go alone
00:35:25chad looks happier than i've seen him in years
00:35:35not since
00:35:37that situation with his ex-girlfriend
00:35:39he's my best friend
00:35:42of course i want this happiness to last
00:35:45but inexplicably
00:35:47there's this nagging unease
00:35:49i can't quite articulate it
00:35:51i just fear
00:35:53he might get swallowed up by this
00:35:55that he'll drift away from our group
00:35:57away from me
00:35:59further than i can reach
00:36:02see
00:36:10i told you something's off
00:36:12chad's clearly developing feelings over there
00:36:15if we don't intervene
00:36:16he'll become completely obsessed
00:36:18unbelievable
00:36:20first late night snacks for devil lady
00:36:23now a movie date with her tomorrow
00:36:24this is outright betrayal
00:36:26i think chad's just swept up in the nostalgia of their reunion
00:36:29first we still don't know what lisa's real motives are
00:36:32put that aside
00:36:33what about that mystery man from earlier
00:36:36and jiang dakai
00:36:37what's their connection
00:36:39how can we strategize without intel
00:36:41exactly
00:36:42chad's walking
00:36:43straight into the lion's den
00:36:45i think i've identified the root cause
00:36:47which is
00:36:49consider this
00:36:50gu just attended his ex-girlfriend's wedding last week
00:36:53that must have shaken him deeply
00:36:54now suddenly a woman appears in his life
00:36:56of course he'd fall right into the trap
00:36:58think about it
00:36:59among us
00:37:00chad's always been the most desperate to find a girlfriend
00:37:02at this point
00:37:03it probably doesn't even matter who the girl is
00:37:06as long as it's a woman
00:37:07he'd be satisfied
00:37:08so we need to find someone
00:37:10to divert his attention
00:37:12who exactly
00:37:14you
00:37:17interested in me
00:37:19who
00:37:22can
00:37:23fool
00:37:24to know
00:37:24you
00:37:25to know
00:37:27who
00:37:27do
00:38:28Mr. Guo?
00:38:32What are you doing here?
00:38:34Didn't you invite me to this movie?
00:38:36You even had your friend deliver my ticket.
00:38:39My friend?
00:38:43Fine. Let's just call this a coincidence then.
00:38:46Is it so wrong to watch a movie together?
00:38:48Excuse me?
00:38:48Dog-eared book? Why are you standing there? You're blocking everyone's view. Sit down. The chocolate popcorn you wanted.
00:38:59I bought your favorite chocolate popcorn, too.
00:39:06You know her?
00:39:07This is Lisa Hsu.
00:39:17My colleague, Ms. Chui.
00:39:20Hello, I'm Lisa Hsu.
00:39:22I'm Scarlet Chui.
00:39:23I'm Scarlet Chui.
00:39:53Is there a problem here?
00:40:00Nothing.
00:40:03Nothing at all. I've got this.
00:40:05Mr. Guo, would you like some popcorn?
00:40:19Sure.
00:40:26Dog-eared book.
00:40:28I have some here, too. Have mine instead.
00:40:31What's wrong, Mr. Guo?
00:40:38Are you done? Enough already. Come on.
00:40:41Mr. Guo, don't be angry. We were just trying to prevent a mistake.
00:40:46Yeah, two beautiful women with you at once.
00:40:48You should be thanking us.
00:40:49Do you realize how this makes me look to them?
00:40:54Mr. Guo, it's really not a big deal.
00:40:56Listen.
00:40:58You and Lisa are just friends, right?
00:40:59So you watched a movie with your friend and your date.
00:41:05Perfectly normal.
00:41:06Exactly.
00:41:07Wait.
00:41:08Nonsense.
00:41:09Ms. Chui is strictly a colleague.
00:41:11Even better, then.
00:41:12You, your friend, and your colleague enjoying a film together.
00:41:16What's the problem, right?
00:41:18I'm done talking to you all.
00:41:20You three are complete jerks.
00:41:22Why the insult?
00:41:23You're calling us jerks over two women?
00:41:26Seriously?
00:41:26Since you've gone that far, maybe we should just go our separate ways from today.
00:41:32Cut all ties. How's that sound?
00:41:33I think we've reached that point.
00:41:34Right?
00:41:35Are you even human? Please stop, buddy.
00:41:37Hear that?
00:41:38He's calling us inhuman now.
00:41:40You've crossed a line, Chad.
00:41:42Fine. I'll shut up.
00:41:44Okay?
00:41:45But answer me this.
00:41:47Who would you choose?
00:41:49Us or those women?
00:41:50I can't believe you'd ask that.
00:41:52There's no comparison between you three and them.
00:41:56What I mean is, no one could ever replace you three.
00:41:59All you care about now are those two women, not us.
00:42:02Have you forgotten what we promised each other?
00:42:05Huh?
00:42:10What?
00:42:16The four of you are freshmen.
00:42:20New members of the school soccer team, yet you violate dormitory rules by sneaking out
00:42:26to watch games all night.
00:42:29Do rules mean nothing to you?
00:42:31What about school discipline?
00:42:33Professor Sun, please understand, the UEFA Champions League only happens once a year.
00:42:39Professor Sun, we really had no choice.
00:42:42We were afraid of disturbing the night staff if we returned late.
00:42:45That's not it, Professor Sun.
00:42:46To be perfectly honest, the game wasn't even the main point.
00:42:50What truly matters is mastering advanced soccer techniques, so we can bring glory to Boli University
00:42:55and China's national team someday.
00:42:57Enough excuses!
00:42:58Right.
00:42:59Must you always lecture us?
00:43:00You never know when to stop talking.
00:43:02Are you finished?
00:43:02Professor Sun is addressing us.
00:43:04Professor, I haven't interrupted you, have I?
00:43:05Silence!
00:43:06Yannick Tong, Electrical Engineering and Automation.
00:43:12Present, sir!
00:43:13You startled me.
00:43:15Chad Guo, History Department.
00:43:16Here, sir!
00:43:18Jason Lee, Philosophy.
00:43:22Phoenix Zhang, International Economics and Trade.
00:43:24Present!
00:43:25You four are the most troublesome freshmen this year.
00:43:30You've aged me ten years in one semester.
00:43:32Our apologies, Professor Sun.
00:43:34From different departments, yet inseparable as glue.
00:43:38Know what this demonstrates?
00:43:40Birds of a feather!
00:43:41Flock together!
00:43:43You enjoy each other's company so much?
00:43:46Very well.
00:43:47Request granted.
00:43:49Effective immediately.
00:43:50Leave the room that you're staying in.
00:43:52You'll be transferred to the new room number 107.
00:43:56You'll be living together.
00:43:57Happy?
00:43:58No way!
00:43:59Wait, does this mean we're roommates now, Professor?
00:44:01From now on, you'll be living together.
00:44:11You seem thrilled?
00:44:16No, no!
00:44:17It's just, we're close friends.
00:44:19The room number 108 is my duty room.
00:44:20It's right next to yours.
00:44:22I'll be close to you.
00:44:26From now on, whether you're going to class, training, or during outdoor activities.
00:44:31Night's roll call?
00:44:33You'll have to greet me.
00:44:35I'll ensure the four of you a healthy and happy university life.
00:44:39Thank you, Professor Sun.
00:44:41From today onward, room 107 brothers are family.
00:44:48Bonded for life.
00:44:50Brothers of the Covenant!
00:44:51That memory brought unexpected comfort.
00:45:01Not just from Chad's return.
00:45:04But also...
00:45:06Have some popcorn.
00:45:08Mr. Guo, please accept this.
00:45:09We came today to properly apologize for our behavior the other night.
00:45:34We're here to apologize, and that's it.
00:45:37You!
00:45:38Get out!
00:45:39You all understand what tonight's successful experiment signifies.
00:45:43If you never dare to stare into the abyss, if you refuse to take that leap, fear will always
00:45:48control you.
00:45:49Someone must venture into the unknown first.
00:45:51Management is granting you one month.
00:46:15Within 30 days, you must complete the third-tier architecture for the autonomous driving project.
00:46:21Otherwise, we're shutting it down entirely.
00:46:23I know your project too well.
00:46:26So I'm offering you this chance to withdraw voluntarily and end this cleanly.
00:46:29To be exact, 22 days and 20 hours remaining.
00:46:44Byron.
00:46:46Call the car immediately.
00:46:48I'm going to the office.
00:46:49At this hour?
00:46:51Why?
00:46:51To prepare for war.
00:46:53To prepare for war.
00:47:21You're here.
00:47:32Eh.

00:49:28ever heard of sisyphus from greek myth he spent his whole life pushing a massive rock up a steep hill
00:49:38but because of gravity it kept rolling back down still he never quit
00:49:47you know
00:49:50why i've heard it before
00:49:55the gods punished him
00:49:59it was a punishment
00:50:01but also his duty
00:50:04for him that rock was everything in his whole world
00:50:08and the automated driving project
00:50:12that's my rock
00:50:14like sisyphus so i'll never give up on it
00:50:18sure
00:50:20let's tackle it together
00:50:21let's tackle it together
00:50:22let's tackle it together
00:50:34What's happening?
00:50:55I sent a pic in the group chat, and now everyone's here.
00:50:59Boss, we're Team Dragon Ball.
00:51:02We've got a rep to uphold.
00:51:05How could you work overtime without us?
00:51:09You can't summon the Eternal Dragon alone.
00:51:11He's right.
00:51:12Exactly.
00:51:13Let me be clear.
00:51:14I'm not paying you, and this is your choice.
00:51:17But I'll buy you all lunch, whatever you want.
00:51:20Han, order food for everyone.
00:51:24Thanks, boss.
00:51:25Cap it at 100 yuan, okay?
00:51:27We won't eat that much, boss.
00:51:29Hey, go ahead and order.
00:51:30I will.
00:51:31It's all the Devil Lady's fault pushing Tong so hard.
00:51:34Enough.
00:51:35Stop calling her that.
00:51:37Your attitude.
00:51:38Won't fix anything.
00:51:40Then how do we fix this?
00:51:41What's the right attitude?
00:51:43Take her down?
00:51:45Whoever started this should end it.
00:51:47But depends on the problem.
00:51:49If it's small, we handle it easily.
00:51:51But if it's big, you expect Tong to apologize to her?
00:51:55No way.
00:51:57Tong would never.
00:51:57But we might help them.
00:52:01Here's my idea.
00:52:02We get Lisa a gift for Tong's sake.
00:52:05Then smooth things over.
00:52:07We'll say Tong's too proud.
00:52:09To apologize face to face.
00:52:11Problem solved, right?
00:52:13Naturally, Tong would...
00:52:14Tong would lose it.
00:52:15And never talk to you again.
00:52:17We just won't tell him.
00:52:18When are you seeing her?
00:52:25Not me.
00:52:26Us.
00:52:27Together.
00:52:28We go together.
00:52:31That way we rep the team properly.
00:52:35Eh...
00:52:35Sorry to interrupt.
00:52:37But I might be busy.
00:52:39What's up?
00:52:40Just got a text.
00:52:41Got to hit the store this afternoon.
00:52:43Then dinner tonight.
00:52:44Can't bail.
00:52:44Oh, I just remember.
00:52:46One more thing.
00:52:47What do we even get her?
00:52:48Gucci?
00:52:49Prada?
00:52:50Louis Vuitton?
00:52:50Well, I think...
00:52:52The devil lady's not just anybody.
00:52:53You think she cares about luxury stuff?
00:52:55She doesn't.
00:52:57However, finding the perfect gift for her...
00:52:59Is like hitting a bullseye.
00:53:01What do you think she'd actually want?
00:53:05Well, let me think.
00:53:07Lisa and Tong...
00:53:08Are a lot alike.
00:53:11They're both crucial to the company.
00:53:13Corporate high flyer.
00:53:15If we're picking a gift...
00:53:17What would Tong need?
00:53:19Any idea?
00:53:21Tong?
00:53:23He needs a girlfriend.
00:53:25Shut up.
00:53:26Come on, man.
00:53:26Is that all you ever think about?
00:53:29Just a suggestion.
00:53:31Like Guo said.
00:53:33Tong and Lisa are similar.
00:53:36Their needs are probably close, too.
00:53:39Why not check?
00:53:40Tong's recent shopping history?
00:53:41Huh?
00:53:42That's brilliant.
00:53:44That's brilliant.
00:53:51So here's the thing.
00:53:53We came today...
00:53:55To apologize for.
00:53:56What happened the other day?
00:53:57We figured we should visit in person.
00:54:01Yes, we're here to say sorry.
00:54:02Sorry, and we're done.
00:54:04We'll head out now.
00:54:07Sorry.
00:54:08He's just too embarrassed and nervous.
00:54:10Please don't take it the wrong way.
00:54:11It's fine.
00:54:13I suppose fate arranged everything.
00:54:15Exactly.
00:54:16What a miserable fate.
00:54:18Lisa, I brought your favorite avocados.
00:54:25You remembered I like these?
00:54:27Of course.
00:54:28And this, too.
00:54:31It's super trendy online right now.
00:54:34A U-shaped neck pillow for corporate professional.
00:54:37It's nice.
00:54:38There's no free lunch.
00:54:39Get to the point.
00:54:39Tong actually chose this for you himself.
00:54:45He did?
00:54:47He said it suits you perfectly.
00:54:49You can use it to rest your neck.
00:54:51During work or business trips.
00:54:54Then why didn't he come?
00:54:56You know how proud he is.
00:55:01He also asked me to tell you.
00:55:03It was all a misunderstanding between you two.
00:55:05Now I'm just the mediator.
00:55:07We're all good now.
00:55:08Let's move past this.
00:55:11From now on, we keep things civil.
00:55:15He's a man.
00:55:16He can't just drop his pride.
00:55:18Are you not men?
00:55:19Uh, this is so rude.
00:55:22Ever heard the saying,
00:55:23Be polite to gift givers?
00:55:25Mind your manners.
00:55:27Did you bring me anything?
00:55:29Where's my gift?
00:55:30I...
00:55:31Of course we got you something.
00:55:34These M&Ms are delicious.
00:55:36Here for you.
00:55:38I found tons of our high school photos on my computer.
00:55:43Want to see them?
00:55:45Sure.
00:55:47M&Ms?
00:55:49Enjoy.
00:55:52Here.
00:55:53Look at this one.
00:55:56This is the one.
00:55:58We took these photos during the 12th grade.
00:56:01You kept these?
00:56:04I'm right here.
00:56:06Wow, I was such a certified pretty boy in high school.
00:56:09You haven't changed much.
00:56:12Not true.
00:56:13My skin was so smooth and soft then.
00:56:15Haven't changed much.
00:56:17Still is.
00:56:19There's more.
00:56:22See this?
00:56:22We were doing self-study.
00:56:26And you were giving me history lessons.
00:56:29Youth slips away like sand through fingers.
00:56:31When will the bittersweet goodbyes ever end?
00:56:34It felt like I just dozed off in class.
00:56:36And when I woke up, my youth had vanished.
00:56:39Without a trace.
00:56:40The only difference is you can recite more poems now.
00:56:43Otherwise, you're exactly the same.
00:56:45That's not true.
00:56:46I have changed.
00:56:46You still can't lie to save your life.
00:56:50That U-shaped pillow wasn't really from him, was it?
00:56:55Well.
00:57:11Look at your face.
00:57:13Your expression changed lightning fast.
00:57:15Did someone break your heart?
00:57:16Are you kidding me?
00:57:20Who could possibly break my heart?
00:57:23Are you sure about that?
00:57:25Let me say this again.
00:57:27I'm completely fine.
00:57:30Then why are you shouting at me?
00:57:32Such an extreme reaction.
00:57:34Reveal subconscious insecurity.
00:57:38You're leaning back at a 45 degree angle.
00:57:41Your body's afraid I'll see right through you.
00:57:44Did you fall for some girl?
00:57:45Only to realize she's completely indifferent?
00:57:48You were so eager.
00:57:50To shower her with affection.
00:57:52But she threw it right back in your face.
00:57:53Left you anxious and helpless.
00:57:56I bet it's that girl from the other day, right?
00:58:01Deliver gifts on someone else's behalf?
00:58:03Wait.
00:58:03I just wanted to ease the tension between you two.
00:58:08Don't waste your concern on us.
00:58:10If you've got time to chat with me, why not convince your dear friend to abandon that project?
00:58:16Wait.
00:58:17He's completely obsessed.
00:58:18That's just his nature.
00:58:26Once he sets his mind to something, no force on Earth can change it.
00:58:30I've collaborated with many engineers.
00:58:32I understand their stubborn dedication to their designs.
00:58:35Of course.
00:58:38I know why they're so confident.
00:58:42But in Yannick Tong's case, his obsession with this project has gone too far.
00:58:48Why?
00:58:48Didn't I just explain?
00:58:52That's simply who he is.
00:58:57Let me tell you a story about him.
00:59:01In our junior year, during the school sports meet, Yannick was our star sprinter.
00:59:07He signed up for three races.
00:59:10But he couldn't bear to see our department lose.
00:59:12So after completing his three events, completely exhausted, he volunteered for the 5,000 meter race too.
00:59:20On the fifth lap, he stumbled and fell hard.
00:59:23I'll never forget how pale he looked.
00:59:25I was really worried about him.
00:59:27I rushed to pull him off the track.
00:59:29But guess what?
00:59:31Before I could reach him, he was already back on his feet, running again.
00:59:34Did he catch up with the leaders?
00:59:36Don't be ridiculous.
00:59:37He's human, not superhuman.
00:59:41Yet he refused to quit.
00:59:43Doggedly completing all 5,000 meters.
00:59:45By his final lap, nearly everyone else had finished.
00:59:49The entire stadium, teachers and students alike, fell silent watching him.
00:59:55When he finally crossed the line and collapsed on the field, the entire crowd erupted.
01:00:00Into thunderous applause, he commands everyone's admiration.
01:00:04That moment is etched in my memory forever.
01:00:08Spend enough time with him.
01:00:09Spend enough time with him.
01:00:10And you'll understand.
01:00:12For Yannick, perseverance matters more than victory.
01:00:18All three of us have been shaped by his spirit.
01:00:22For us, no matter what obstacles life throws at us, when we fall, we always get back up.
01:00:29And keep moving forward.
01:00:36I'm genuinely moved.
01:00:39By your friendship.
01:00:41Right?
01:00:41Has Yannick always lived with just his son?
01:00:51Yes.
01:00:53Just the two of them.
01:00:54How did you read my feelings so accurately?
01:01:04What else can you deduce?
01:01:05First, it wasn't guessing.
01:01:08Second, I know.
01:01:09You're completely smitten with her.
01:01:12Third, she's far from stupid and pretty.
01:01:14How would you know?
01:01:16You've never even met her.
01:01:17Who are you to judge?
01:01:20Well, the details don't lie.
01:01:22You paid for her movie ticket.
01:01:24When the cinema offered four packages, she chose the priciest one.
01:01:27We bickered for ages.
01:01:29Did she notice?
01:01:30Oh, she saw it.
01:01:31She just didn't care.
01:01:33Only two things held her attention.
01:01:35First, the movie.
01:01:36Second, her phone.
01:01:38Frankly, she spent more time scrolling than speaking to you.
01:01:41The entire runtime debating where to go that night.
01:01:44She refused your ride home, didn't she?
01:01:46Not stupid at all.
01:01:49She's actually...
01:01:51What?
01:01:54Figure it out yourself.
01:01:56Shut up!
01:01:58Yo's wonderful.
01:01:58How dare you criticize her?
01:02:00You're just jealous.
01:02:01Why would I be?
01:02:02Jealous she's dating someone like me.
01:02:04Please, you're a lonely woman.
01:02:06Stuck in your empty bed.
01:02:07Daydreaming about men you'll never have.
01:02:09That's why you're bitter.
01:02:11Get out!
01:02:12Now!
01:02:14Gladly, no one wants to stay.
01:02:16Let's go!
01:02:17Jason.
01:02:18They're our guests.
01:02:19Like hell!
01:02:19You can stay.
01:02:20He leaves.
01:02:21You should go.
01:02:22Fine.
01:02:23We're leaving.
01:02:25Goodbye.
01:02:28Call me later?
01:02:30Sure.
01:02:31Cranky in the mornings.
01:02:32It's fine.
01:02:32Bye.
01:02:33See you.
01:02:34See you.
01:02:34Miss Liu.
01:02:56This is my regular jogging route.
01:02:59Join me today?
01:03:00Can you even keep up?
01:03:02Jogging?
01:03:04In this outfit?
01:03:06Impossible.
01:03:07Then forget it.
01:03:11Miss Liu?
01:03:12Wait, Miss Liu.
01:03:24You okay?
01:03:26I'm fine.
01:03:26I'm fine.
01:03:26Why so quiet?
01:03:33What's on your mind?
01:03:36Nothing, really.
01:03:38Just impressed by the super-buzzed hair technique.
01:03:43Missing her?
01:03:44Should I take you back?
01:03:46Stop.
01:03:47Random thought.
01:03:51Hey, Guo.
01:03:52What were you doing with her in that room earlier?
01:03:55Don't be absurd.
01:03:57Lisa and I are strictly friends.
01:03:58That's all.
01:04:01That wasn't my question.
01:04:03Sounds like guilt to me.
01:04:06Keep talking and I'll ditch you roadside.
01:04:09Just teasing.
01:04:1020 minutes for 3km.
01:04:20Not bad for unprepared.
01:04:23Well, actually, I'm not well-equipped today.
01:04:26Next time, with proper gear, I could do 30km, let alone this stretch.
01:04:32Totally fine.
01:04:33Let's go.
01:04:35Wait.
01:04:36I...
01:04:36I live nearby.
01:04:41Why not?
01:04:43Grab a drink instead?
01:04:44Would you like to come up to my place?
01:04:46Inviting me in?
01:04:48Yeah.
01:04:49And one more?
01:04:49How about...
01:04:51Fetching my dog first?
01:04:52We could walk him together.
01:04:55Is this your standard move?
01:04:58No.
01:05:00Phoenix Xiang.
01:05:01Is walk the dog your go-to move?
01:05:03For luring women?
01:05:06That's not...
01:05:07You've got it wrong.
01:05:09I just thought...
01:05:10Dog walking.
01:05:12Step 1.
01:05:13Woman enters man's home.
01:05:15Step 2.
01:05:16Post walk she returns.
01:05:18Two visits.
01:05:20The classic let's walk the dog move.
01:05:23Once she's comfortable there,
01:05:24whatever the man really wants
01:05:26becomes...
01:05:28achievable.
01:05:28Actually...
01:05:30When you texted me earlier,
01:05:32I assumed you had something important to say,
01:05:34but you haven't mentioned anything yet.
01:05:36So I wanted to understand you better,
01:05:38before diving into whether you actually
01:05:39have something to tell me.
01:05:42Nothing.
01:05:42What's wrong?
01:05:57Did something happen?
01:05:58I've got a blister on my heel from rubbing.
01:06:01It's throbbing like crazy.
01:06:04How on earth did you hurt your heel?
01:06:06Huh?
01:06:08I'm not heading back tonight.
01:06:10I'll work remotely from here tomorrow.
01:06:12Take King Kong to his ice hockey practice
01:06:14the day after tomorrow.
01:06:17Yannick won't be home either.
01:06:19Your meeting wrapped up early today.
01:06:21Just business.
01:06:22Made my point and left.
01:06:23No reason to linger.
01:06:25Business?
01:06:26You're drenched in sweat.
01:06:27And now a blistering ankle?
01:06:29Some intense business meeting, huh?
01:06:31The AC was broken.
01:06:32Place was sweltering.
01:06:34As for the sweat?
01:06:35I rushed back.
01:06:36Because I missed you all.
01:06:37That's how I hurt my heel.
01:06:39Satisfied?
01:06:40Alright, enough about me.
01:06:41Your turn.
01:06:43Seen right through.
01:06:44What?
01:06:45Any fool could tell that gift wasn't from Yannick.
01:06:48That's not even the worst part.
01:06:50That buzzed hair nearly.
01:06:51Exposed everything.
01:06:53Buddy, that's not saying much.
01:06:55We see through you daily.
01:06:56Come on.
01:06:57Stop mocking me.
01:06:58If you're so brilliant, why don't you land a girlfriend?
01:07:01Pal, it's not about getting one.
01:07:03It's about keeping one.
01:07:04None of your past relationships lasted long.
01:07:07Yours wouldn't even start.
01:07:08Let alone last.
01:07:10Buddy, what's yo thinking?
01:07:12She's always so elusive.
01:07:14Like I can't reach her at all.
01:07:16Listen, Jason.
01:07:16You're missing one thing.
01:07:18What am I missing?
01:07:20Your heart.
01:07:21I'm serious about her.
01:07:22I text her constantly.
01:07:24When I find a funny meme, she's the first I send it to.
01:07:27I've taken her to my favorite spot dozens of times.
01:07:30We know.
01:07:31The 50-un ahead place.
01:07:33Don't reduce it to money.
01:07:34Atmosphere matters more.
01:07:35Jason, Phoenix is right.
01:07:39To truly move her, you need depth.
01:07:42Only then will she feel it.
01:07:43Yeah.
01:07:44Mr. Guo, that's too abstract.
01:07:46Plain words, please.
01:07:48Simply put, Jason, you need to learn what she craves in her heart.
01:07:52What she lacks.
01:07:54Yes.
01:07:55Then fulfill that longing.
01:07:58Money?
01:07:59I'm not exactly rolling in it.
01:08:01No, listen.
01:08:02The little things.
01:08:03And that means micro-moments of joy in life.
01:08:07Whatever you give, must scream, I see you.
01:08:12Let me expand on Chad's point.
01:08:14She's new to Shanghai.
01:08:16No roots here yet.
01:08:18What should you give?
01:08:19You should send her something practical, something useful, right?
01:08:23It's affordable, but proves you notice her needs.
01:08:27That's true, care.
01:08:28You're right.
01:08:30Absolutely.
01:08:31The moon above the sea belongs to the sky.
01:08:33The lover before me belongs in my heart.
01:08:37I meant to stay detached, yet here I am.
01:08:40Swept into the whirlpool.
01:08:43Sir?
01:08:44Those flowery words just now.
01:08:47Who were they really for?
01:08:48Chad's hiding something.
01:08:50Earlier today.
01:08:51Enough nonsense.
01:08:53What's he hiding?
01:08:55Cheers.
01:08:56Cheers.
01:08:58Come on.
01:09:00Cheers.
01:09:01Cheers.
01:09:01Good morning, Mr. Jiang.
01:09:13You're early today.
01:09:15An urgent document's due.
01:09:17Hence the half-hour head start.
01:09:24Han?
01:09:25This is the finalized concept plan.
01:09:29Well, someone's already here.
01:09:35Take your time reviewing it.
01:09:37Okay.
01:09:38Well?
01:09:39Cheng Gong and I completed calculations for both occupancy grid mapping and free roam grid models.
01:09:44Tell Dade to accelerate path planning computations.
01:09:47We need results by afternoon.
01:09:48Got it.
01:09:48Is the countdown timer set?
01:09:52What's our deadline?
01:09:538 p.m. sharp.
01:09:55Return the thumb drive when finished.
01:09:57Sure thing.
01:10:02What defines your most thrilling moment?
01:10:05University acceptance?
01:10:07First love's first date?
01:10:09Your inaugural car keys and trembling hands?
01:10:11Or perhaps keys to your own Shanghai apartment in this concrete jungle?
01:10:20For me,
01:10:21this is that moment.
01:10:26Exhaustion, roadblocks, pressure
01:10:27press down like physical weights.
01:10:31Yet I'm closer than ever
01:10:32to making it real.
01:10:35Yo?
01:11:01It really is you.
01:11:03Jason?
01:11:03What are you doing here?
01:11:05Just grabbing daily essentials.
01:11:06What a coincidence.
01:11:07Here alone?
01:11:09Yeah.
01:11:12Picking a thank you gift.
01:11:14Someone helped me enormously.
01:11:16I wanted to send a gift to show my gratitude.
01:11:21What a coincidence.
01:11:22No way, me too.
01:11:23I'm also gift shopping today.
01:11:25Let's browse together?
01:11:27Perfect.
01:11:28Let's go.
01:11:32Jason, I need to take this call.
01:11:33Wait for you.
01:11:35Wait for you.
01:11:36Okay.
01:11:39I have no idea.
01:11:41Just ran into him.
01:11:43Coming out now.
01:11:45A gift?
01:11:50For a man?
01:11:51Be careful.
01:12:02Did you hear me?
01:12:04All set.
01:12:05All set.
01:12:06And this.
01:12:08Go on, King Kong.
01:12:09Go on.
01:12:13Go.
01:12:13Trust me.
01:12:15Watching these kids on the ice transports me back.
01:12:17Not to brag.
01:12:19But once I step out there, I transform.
01:12:24Total rank dominance.
01:12:25Parents.
01:12:29Today's practice requires participation.
01:12:31Please gear up in the equipment room.
01:12:33Full uniforms.
01:12:35Return promptly.
01:12:36Uncle Zheng.
01:12:37You bragged about being pro level.
01:12:39Let's team up.
01:12:43Jason.
01:12:44Something urgent came up.
01:12:46Did it start yet?
01:12:47Perfect timing.
01:12:49You're right on time.
01:12:50Suit up and get on the ice.
01:12:51You're drafted.
01:12:52Why me?
01:12:53This isn't my scene.
01:13:08Everyone's participating.
01:13:09Everything's okay.
01:13:11I'll handle King Kong's ride home.
01:13:21Tonight's experiment is pivotal for our new solution.
01:13:35Prep and initiate.
01:13:39Phase 1.
01:13:41Number of simulated cars.
01:13:424 cluster.
01:13:43Simulated mileage.
01:13:4440 miles per hour.
01:13:45Obstacle difficulties.
01:13:463.
01:13:463.
01:13:46Passing through safely.
01:13:57Phase 2.
01:13:586 cluster at 50 miles per hour.
01:14:01Level 3 obstacles.
01:14:08Clean sweep.
01:14:09Clean sweep.
01:14:09Phase 3.
01:14:188 cluster.
01:14:2060 miles per hour.
01:14:21Level 4.
01:14:22System overload.
01:14:23I believe in our algorithm and our team.
01:14:26I'm sure.
01:14:28You know what success tonight would mean.
01:14:30For all of us.
01:14:33Proceed.
01:14:33Proceed.
01:14:33Proceed.
01:14:33Proceed.
01:14:39Proceed.
01:15:03Bostong?
01:15:05The hardware can't sustain this load.
01:15:08It's a total crash.
01:15:12We've hit our limit.
01:15:37You chose well.
01:15:49This place feels worlds away.
01:15:55Mr. Tong.
01:16:00No one wanted your success more than me.
01:16:04We'll see.
01:16:05I don't understand this obsession.
01:16:09What makes this project worth everything to you?
01:16:12Did you over time just to interrogate me here?
01:16:15That's your real motive?
01:16:17Then can you tell me?
01:16:18What does it mean to you?
01:16:22Gore came by yesterday.
01:16:24Brought your apology.
01:16:25And a neck pillow.
01:16:27Care to explain?
01:16:28I knew it wasn't from you.
01:16:30You should realize.
01:16:31Everyone sees your frustration.
01:16:32They're worried sick.
01:16:37I'm sorry.
01:16:39Sorry for causing concern.
01:16:41But this is the adult world.
01:16:43Not some field.
01:16:45Where you just get back up after falling.
01:16:47He told you that too?
01:16:52Let me advise you.
01:16:54When you gaze into the abyss,
01:16:56it gazes back.
01:16:57Then let me advise you.
01:16:58If you lack the courage to look
01:17:01and the courage to try,
01:17:03fear will forever choke you.
01:17:06Someone has to try.
01:17:09You'll never understand
01:17:11because we inhabit
01:17:12different worlds.
01:17:16Aren't we chasing
01:17:20the same dream?
01:17:22We're like
01:17:23the Arctic and Antarctic
01:17:24in the world.
01:17:25Even if continents collide,
01:17:27we'll never touch each other
01:17:28in this life.
01:17:30The same bitter cold,
01:17:32but separate eternities.
01:17:37Fine.
01:17:38I wish you enjoy your world then.
01:17:41Goodbye.
01:17:41Goodbye.
01:17:41Goodbye.
01:17:46Goodbye.
01:18:16Goodbye.
01:18:46The crowd saw Sisyphus' perseverance.
01:19:04Only he knew
01:19:05why he truly failed.
01:19:09Precipices and rolling stones
01:19:10are fate's design.
01:19:12Some charge through them.
01:19:16Some flee.
01:19:19Yet the boulder remains.
01:19:26It's you.
01:19:29And me.
01:19:29And me.
01:19:42What's wrong?
01:19:59You're grimacing.
01:20:03Nothing.
01:20:03He's been undefeated forever.
01:20:17Now if he falls,
01:20:20what hope is left?
01:20:22True champions rise
01:20:23stronger after falls.
01:20:25That's what separates
01:20:25contenders
01:20:26from legends.
01:20:28Years of training
01:20:29wasted in one stumble.
01:20:33Are we still talking
01:20:35about the same thing?
01:20:41I'm going to bed.
01:20:43Lisa!
01:20:44Look!
01:20:45First place!
01:20:48Kenya's Kirui
01:20:49through sheer will
01:20:51rose after a devastating fall
01:20:53to win the 2017 championship.
01:21:01Why's he taking so long?
01:21:03Give him a call.
01:21:06Well?
01:21:07Answering?
01:21:08Nothing.
01:21:10Maybe.
01:21:11Maybe he left the office.
01:21:13Lisa told me.
01:21:15Today,
01:21:16Tong's experiment crashed.
01:21:18He's spiraling.
01:21:21Alone like this.
01:21:23You don't think
01:21:24he'd do something...
01:21:26Stop imagining
01:21:26worse cases.
01:21:27See?
01:21:28His office light's still on.
01:21:30Well?
01:21:31He just needs space.
01:21:32Let's wait a little longer.
01:21:35Give him tonight.
01:21:36Huh?
01:22:00Huh?
01:22:02He's gone.
01:22:03Wake up!
01:22:05I think he left!
01:22:08Move!
01:22:09Light's off now.
01:22:11My hips are killing me.
01:22:12Now what?
01:22:13I think Tong left.
01:22:15He's really left?
01:22:17I wanted to wrap him
01:22:18in the warmest hug.
01:22:19How could he just disappear?
01:22:21Huh?
01:22:22Wait.
01:22:23If he left,
01:22:24why isn't he picking up?
01:22:26Alone on a night like this,
01:22:27drowning in despair.
01:22:28You don't think he'd...
01:22:29This is his lowest point.
01:22:33Now.
01:22:34And he's pushing everyone away.
01:22:36Wait.
01:22:37What?
01:22:38Under the most stress?
01:22:42Let's go.
01:22:43Let's go.
01:22:44Let's go.
01:22:44Chief Engineer Tong.
01:23:09Thought I spotted you earlier.
01:23:11Who are they?
01:23:11Your crew?
01:23:12Yeah.
01:23:12Came with friends.
01:23:14Never expected to find you here.
01:23:16Figured you'd be buried in the lab.
01:23:18Well?
01:23:19Up for a race?
01:23:20Pass.
01:23:21Enjoy your night.
01:23:22Scared?
01:23:23Mr. Lee,
01:23:37just sparing you
01:23:37the embarrassment of losing
01:23:39in front of your fan club.
01:23:41The more,
01:23:42the merrier.
01:23:43Since when?
01:23:45Is losing shameful?
01:23:47Fine.
01:23:48The more you're doing.
01:23:48The more you're doing,
01:23:49the more you're doing,
01:23:49the more you're doing,
01:23:49the more you're doing.
01:23:50The more you're doing,
01:23:50the more you're doing.
01:23:51The more you're doing,
01:23:52the more you're doing,
01:23:52the more you're doing.
01:23:52The more you're doing,
01:23:53the more you're doing,
01:23:54the more you're doing,
01:23:54the more you're doing.
01:23:54The more you're doing,
01:23:55the more you're doing,
01:23:55the more you're doing.
01:23:57The more you're doing,
01:23:57the more you're doing.
01:23:57The more you're doing,
01:23:57the more you're doing.
01:23:58The more you're doing,
01:23:59the more you're doing,
01:24:00the more you're doing.
01:24:00The more you're doing,
01:24:01the more you're doing.
01:24:01The more you're doing,
01:24:31Final lap.
01:25:31Are you insane?
01:25:43That wasn't just fun.
01:25:45As long as my heart beats.
01:25:47I don't accept defeat.
01:25:49Then enjoy your hollow victories.
01:25:51We're done here.
01:25:52Let's go.
01:25:53Let's move.
01:25:55Come on.
01:25:56He's furious.
01:25:57Bye.
01:25:59Bye.
01:26:02What's wrong with you three?
01:26:04Don't ask.
01:26:05Just listen.
01:26:06Really listen.
01:26:07First, you won.
01:26:09It's no big deal.
01:26:09It's normal.
01:26:10Winning's your default.
01:26:12No applause deserved.
01:26:13But you screwed up.
01:26:14Mr. Guo, enlighten him.
01:26:16What did he do?
01:26:17Go on.
01:26:18Your sportsmanship was trash.
01:26:20Completely inappropriate.
01:26:21Don't carry this alone.
01:26:22We've got your back.
01:26:23True.
01:26:24You abandoned your responsibilities.
01:26:25Ignoring our calls?
01:26:27Unforgivable as a friend.
01:26:28So right now, I'm obligated to grill you.
01:26:31No excuses.
01:26:32You didn't even invite us.
01:26:34That win doesn't count without witnesses.
01:26:36Yeah.
01:26:37So now, how do you plan to atone?
01:26:39Yeah.
01:26:40I'll make a break for it.
01:26:43You coward.
01:26:44Get back here.

01:28:05Slow down on the drinks. You've barely eaten properly in days.
01:28:10You okay? Call an ambulance.
01:28:12Hospital.
01:28:13Tan, call an ambulance. Okay.
