PersonnesTranscription
00:00:00Je m'appelle Clara Bennett, une traduante junior à Gram Global Trading Co.
00:00:04Je suis là pour trois ans, et je fais de 24,000 dollars par mois.
00:00:11C'est assez ordinaire, non?
00:00:15Mais en fait, je suis étudiante dans huit langues.
00:00:19English, German, French, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, Arab et Italien.
00:00:26N'importe qui ne connaît ça.
00:00:28Mon père était un diplôme, et ma mère était un interpréter simultané.
00:00:32Cinq ans, ils ont mort dans un accident de voiture.
00:00:35Je n'ai jamais voulu montrer ces skills.
00:00:37Je veux juste garder mon tête et être un petit, unassuming translator.
00:00:41Let's welcome Mr. Gram to the stage.
00:00:46Everyone has worked hard over the past year.
00:00:49Thank you for your dedication.
00:00:50In the new year, we will...
00:00:51It's been ten minutes, and I'm down here counting how many times he says thank you
00:00:55while he's giving the speech.
00:00:58Clara, you'd better win the lucky draw later.
00:01:00If you do, dinner's on me.
00:01:03Sure.
00:01:04Why not?
00:01:05That's my everyday life.
00:01:07Mia is my only friend at work.
00:01:08She doesn't know I speak eight languages.
00:01:10But she does know one thing.
00:01:13Okay.
00:01:15Okay.
00:01:15Außerdem habe ich noch eine andere Ankündigung.
00:01:17Jeder hier, der Deutsch spricht, erhält im nächsten Jahr einer 70% Gehousens Erhöhung.
00:01:2470%.
00:01:24My salary would go from $24,000 to $4,800.
00:01:30But it has nothing to do with me.
00:01:32I told myself, it has nothing to do with me.
00:01:41Clara, did you understand that?
00:01:43No.
00:01:44I don't speak German.
00:01:47Right, of course.
00:01:48You only have a certificate in Spanish?
00:01:50What could you possibly understand?
00:01:53Poor thing.
00:01:56Vanessa, majoring in German, French, and Spanish, is the head of translator team.
00:02:01She got promoted in just three months, and has been riding that high ever since.
00:02:09Anyway, the raise has nothing to do with you.
00:02:12Just keep doing the basic work.
00:02:15Oh, and remember to translate the annual meeting Press Explaced tonight.
00:02:19I didn't say anything.
00:02:20A 70% raise.
00:02:22The German translation team consists of four people, plus Vanessa.
00:02:26Only five people would get it.
00:02:28What did that have to do with me?
00:02:30Nothing.
00:02:31Really nothing.
00:02:35Clara, stay right there.
00:02:37I'm coming over right now.
00:02:45Clara.
00:02:47Why didn't you raise your hand just now?
00:02:51Raise my hand for what?
00:02:54You definitely understood that German, right?
00:02:5670%?
00:02:57You only make $24,000 a year.
00:02:59After the raise, that's $4,800 a year.
00:03:03No, I didn't get the meaning.
00:03:04I don't speak German.
00:03:09Who are you trying to fool?
00:03:10Your French is already that good.
00:03:12You expect me to believe you don't understand German.
00:03:14Are you kidding me?
00:03:17I really don't understand German.
00:03:20I really don't understand German.
00:03:20Clara, that crappy place you rent barely have working heating?
00:03:25Sometimes you even can't bring yourself to go when we go out for a drink on Friday.
00:03:29Can't you stand up for yourself for once?
00:03:32Mia caught me reading a French book in the pantry last year.
00:03:37I told her I'd studied a little bit French.
00:03:39She's been holding it in for almost a year.
00:03:42I don't want to expose.
00:03:46Oh my god, Clara.
00:03:48What are you afraid of?
00:03:49Fine.
00:03:50Keep pretending.
00:03:51I'm done.
00:03:53But Clara, I'm telling you.
00:03:55You're going to suffer with that kind of personality sooner or later.
00:04:01All right.
00:04:10Guter Schaaszzug, oder?
00:04:12Schließlich können das nur die Leute aus dem Deutsch-Team verstehen.
00:04:15Das bedeutet, dass ich nur dem Kern-Team eine Gehinst-Erhöhung gebe.
00:04:19Alle anderen werden einfach denken, dass ich eine motivierte Rehe halte.
00:04:22Sehr brillant, Mr. Graham.
00:04:25Abruck, wen schäden wir nächste Woche für das Projekt der Halberv-Group?
00:04:30Vanessa, sie spricht am besten Deutsch.
00:04:35Ich habe gehört, dass Präsident Azen von Halworth ziemlich schwierig ist.
00:04:39Letztes Mal hat er das ganze Übersesserkum von Marion aus dem Besprechungsraum hingefrohen.
00:04:44Das sollte kein Problem sein.
00:04:46Vanessa kommt damit klar.
00:04:50Leute, auf Annis-Nivell sollten wir diesmal nicht mitnehmen.
00:04:53Sie könnten das Meeting ruinieren.
00:04:55Sie wussten nicht, dass ich sie verstehen könnte.
00:04:58Sie denken, dass ich nur ein kleines Translator.
00:05:03Aber das ist nur zu erwähnen.
00:05:05Ich habe nicht gezeigt, was ich kann, was ich auch nicht tun kann.
00:05:08Clara, sende mir die Proof-Red-Version von der Woche, morgen.
00:05:12Ja, Mr. Graham.
00:05:15I placed the Proof-Check contract on Daniel Graham's desk the next day.
00:05:20It was a 30,000-word Spanish contract, and I had corrected 47 mistakes in the original translation.
00:05:27The original translator was Vanessa, but my name would never appear on the Proof-Red version.
00:05:32It would only show translation department on the surface.
00:05:36Vanessa never knew her translations had been corrected by me.
00:05:40She thought she was the top.
00:05:44Clara, did you hear?
00:05:46Hear what?
00:05:47Vanessa is going to handle the Haleworth International next week.
00:05:51I heard...
00:05:52Do you know President Ethan Hale of Haleworth?
00:05:57Who?
00:06:00Ethan Hale.
00:06:0132 years old, President of Haleworth.
00:06:03He ranked 98th on last year's Forbes.
00:06:06They say he's fluent in five languages, but notorious for his bad temper.
00:06:10He even chewed out the entire Meridian's translation team and drove them out of the meeting room.
00:06:14What does that have to do with me?
00:06:17You think Vanessa can handle him?
00:06:21Even if she can't, that's not my business.
00:06:25Clara, seriously.
00:06:26You're way too good at putting up with things.
00:06:28Mia left.
00:06:29She doesn't get it.
00:06:30I'm not putting up with it.
00:06:31I just don't want to get involved.
00:06:33It was an Arabic supplier quotation.
00:06:36Technically, it should have gone to someone on the Arabic group.
00:06:39But the Arabic team is out of the office today, so Jason Pyrriss casually dumped it on me.
00:06:43Clara, didn't you say you took a little Arabic course in college?
00:06:46Just do a rough translation.
00:06:48Sure.
00:06:49I did tell him I'd taken a little Arabic.
00:06:52But in fact, I lived in Saudi Arabia for two years.
00:06:55Arabic is basically my fourth native language.
00:06:58It took me 15 minutes to finish the translation.
00:07:01I left two tiny mistakes in proposal,
00:07:02just to pretend the work of someone who had only taken a little Arabic.
00:07:07Not bad was actually good enough for me.
00:07:12Clara, organize these materials for me.
00:07:15I need them for Haleworth Project next week.
00:07:17This is background materials on Haleworth International Commerce Group Ludley.
00:07:21All in Spanish.
00:07:22About 50 pages.
00:07:23This isn't my job.
00:07:25How is it not?
00:07:26You're in the translation department, and I'm your leader.
00:07:28Is there a problem with me assigning you work?
00:07:30She had been promoted to team leader last month,
00:07:33so of course was at the peak of her arrogance.
00:07:36Fine.
00:07:42Oh, and there's a department meeting tomorrow.
00:07:45We'll be discussing the handover plan for the Haleworth Project.
00:07:48You don't need to attend.
00:07:50I know.
00:07:51You're only responsible for basic proofreading.
00:07:53A major project like this isn't something you get to be part of.
00:07:56I know.
00:08:01I heard everything in the pantry.
00:08:03Who does she think she is talking to you like that?
00:08:05What does she mean by not something you get to be part of?
00:08:07I'm used to it.
00:08:08Can't you just clap back for once?
00:08:10And then what?
00:08:11She's the boss.
00:08:12If you showed everyone what you can really do,
00:08:14what kind of boss would she even be?
00:08:16I don't want to.
00:08:18What exactly are you afraid of, Clara?
00:08:20What am I afraid of?
00:08:22I don't know either.
00:08:23Maybe I'm afraid of being noticed.
00:08:25Afraid that people will dig into my past
00:08:27and will look at me with pity.
00:08:29Or maybe I'm just too tired to care.
00:08:37An annual salary of $24,000.
00:08:40In this city, after rent and utilities,
00:08:44there isn't much left.
00:08:59Hello?
00:09:00Hello.
00:09:01Am I speaking with Miss Clara Bennett?
00:09:02Yes.
00:09:03This is Attorney Wills from Kirkland and Ellis Law Firm.
00:09:06There are some documents regarding the settlement
00:09:07of the overseas assets left by your parents
00:09:09and we need you to sign in person.
00:09:11I've said this before.
00:09:12I don't want any of it.
00:09:13Donate everything.
00:09:13Miss Burnett, there is a sum in your parents' account in Zurich.
00:09:16I don't want it.
00:09:18Attorney Wills, thank you, but please stop calling me.
00:09:27The translation department had a meeting on the Monday morning.
00:09:30I wasn't told to attend,
00:09:31but my desk was right next to the meeting room.
00:09:34I could hear every word through that glass wall.
00:09:36Ethan Hale is fluent in German and French.
00:09:38They're also someone who can speak Mandarin and Japanese in his team.
00:09:42This time, we're discussing a supply chain partnership
00:09:44for the Middle East market.
00:09:46Anything involving Arabic will be handled by their side.
00:09:48We only need to cover the German communication.
00:09:51Can you handle that?
00:09:52Of course.
00:09:52Studied in Germany for three years.
00:09:54Business negotiation like this is exactly in my comfort zone.
00:09:57To be fair, Vanessa's German is decent.
00:09:59Daily conversation is indeed a piece of cake for her.
00:10:01But I've reviewed her previous translations.
00:10:03Her business journey has one fatal habit.
00:10:06She relies too much on literal translation
00:10:08and often misses the level of formality required
00:10:10in German business correspondence.
00:10:12In everyday conversation, that's not a big deal.
00:10:15But if the person she faced is extremely sensitive to details...
00:10:22Never mind.
00:10:23Not my business.
00:10:31Finished sorting everything?
00:10:33Yes.
00:10:34I made her a summary, classified by project type,
00:10:37cooperation history, and key personal.
00:10:38I also marked the changes in tariff policies and the risk points.
00:10:42All she had to do was glance through it,
00:10:44and she would know exactly what to expect.
00:10:45It'll do.
00:10:52Vanessa?
00:10:54He rarely came down here in person.
00:10:56Hallerith moved the schedule up.
00:10:57Ethan will be here tomorrow afternoon.
00:10:59Are you ready?
00:11:02Moved up?
00:11:03I've gone through all the materials.
00:11:04No problem.
00:11:05Good.
00:11:06Bring someone with you tomorrow
00:11:07for on-site interpretation support.
00:11:10I'll take Zach.
00:11:12His German is decent too.
00:11:13Zach is still on leave.
00:11:17Clara.
00:11:18You come with me tomorrow.
00:11:21Me?
00:11:22I only speak Spanish.
00:11:24You'll just take notes and serve coffee.
00:11:26I'll handle the professional part.
00:11:28Her?
00:11:31Don't worry, Mr. Graham.
00:11:32She's more than enough as an assistant.
00:11:35I got dragged into Hallerith's business negotiation
00:11:38as an assistant and a note-taker.
00:11:41Someone who can serve coffee at the same time.
00:11:44I sent Mia a message.
00:11:46I will go to Hallerith tomorrow.
00:11:48Vanessa is taking you?
00:11:49Doesn't she always look down on you?
00:11:52As the errand girl.
00:11:53You...
00:11:54You just agreed to that?
00:11:56What else am I supposed to do?
00:11:58Clara!
00:11:59Clara!
00:12:00Clara!
00:12:00Clara!
00:12:04Clara!
00:12:05Clara!
00:12:12Are you from Graham Global?
00:12:13Yes.
00:12:14I'm Vanessa, team leader of the translation department.
00:12:18This is my assistant, Clara.
00:12:20Oh, she called me assistant.
00:12:22I didn't correct her.
00:12:25Please wait.
00:12:26President Hale is still in a meeting.
00:12:32Vanessa reapplied her lipstick twice
00:12:34and adjusted her hair three separate times
00:12:37in just these 15 minutes.
00:12:44Clara, when we go in,
00:12:46just sit on the side and take notes.
00:12:47Don't speak unless you're asked.
00:12:49Got it?
00:12:51Got it.
00:12:52Also, when you address Mr. Hale,
00:12:54be formal and respectful.
00:12:55Don't let your eyes wander.
00:12:57People at his level hate unprofessional behavior.
00:13:00Okay.
00:13:00Ms. Reed,
00:13:01President Hale will see you now.
00:13:0932 years old.
00:13:11About 6'1",
00:13:12gray suit,
00:13:13no tie,
00:13:14the top button of his shirt was undone.
00:13:16His face was cold.
00:13:17Not the kind of cold people put on to look cool.
00:13:20He was genuinely cold.
00:13:23Sit.
00:13:25Two other people were sitting next to him.
00:13:28The legal director
00:13:30and a lady who looked very young.
00:13:32A translation device sat in front of her.
00:13:35In the last Verschoß lag,
00:13:36which your father Meliton has shown us,
00:13:37is based on the standards of the year 2021.
00:13:41We find it now in 2024.
00:13:43What does that mean?
00:13:44He spoke fast.
00:13:46Every word was sharp.
00:13:48She understood him.
00:13:49But she clearly didn't expect him to open like that.
00:13:57I mean...
00:13:58I have on German asked,
00:13:59so answer them please on German.
00:14:01I don't want to talk about a Dolmester.
00:14:05This proposal was only a first-and-stow.
00:14:08We will update the data.
00:14:10Update?
00:14:11Visualisieren?
00:14:12Hat Immat in ihrem Team
00:14:13die SUG-Politik von 2024
00:14:15für EU-Einführen
00:14:17in den Nahen Osten studiert?
00:14:18Die Änderungen zu Artikel 3
00:14:20und Artikel 7
00:14:21beherlösen direkt 15%
00:14:23Isra Algebotsmarge.
00:14:24Wussten Sie das?
00:14:25She didn't know.
00:14:27But I did.
00:14:28Because that policy change
00:14:29was mentioned in the background materials.
00:14:32I had specifically marked it in the summary.
00:14:34But Vanessa obviously hadn't read it carefully.
00:14:36D-Das muss ich zuerst beferrieren.
00:14:41Haben Sie sich gar nicht vorbeheidet,
00:14:42bevor Sie hierher gekommen sind?
00:14:46I...
00:14:47I...
00:14:47Sie haben dreimal
00:14:48die falschen
00:14:49in deutschen Höhlichkeitsformen gebenust.
00:14:50Beim ersten und zweiten Mal
00:14:52habe ich nichts gesagt.
00:14:53Beim dritten Mal...
00:14:54I...
00:14:54Wissen Sie, was die wiederholtete
00:14:56der Wonsung falscher Anschillungformen
00:14:57im Beschässt-Kontext beneutet?
00:14:59Das bedeutet,
00:14:59Enddog,
00:15:00dass Sie mich nicht respektieren
00:15:01oder dass Sie nicht kompetent genug sind.
00:15:02Welles von beiden trifft zu.
00:15:05The legal director beside Ethan
00:15:07gave a slight shake of his head.
00:15:09The meaning was obvious.
00:15:12This negotiation was about to fall through.
00:15:15President Hale,
00:15:16es tut mir sehr leid.
00:15:18Wenn das das Nieve von Graham Global ist,
00:15:20werde ich Herr Börchen
00:15:21zu einem anderen Partner zu schecksen.
00:15:26My hands froze above the keyboard.
00:15:28Two voices were speaking in my head.
00:15:31It's none of your concern.
00:15:32You're just here to fetch coffee
00:15:34and serve drinks.
00:15:35This is Graham Global's biggest deal of the year.
00:15:38If we lose it,
00:15:39there'll probably be layoffs
00:15:40by the end of the year.
00:15:41And junior translators like me
00:15:42will be first on the chopping block.
00:15:49President Hale,
00:15:50bitte geben Sie uns noch fünf Minuten.
00:15:55And you are?
00:15:57I'm Clara,
00:15:58junior translator at Graham Global.
00:16:00Junior translator?
00:16:02Yes.
00:16:03The one who always takes notes beside
00:16:05and serves coffee.
00:16:08Five minutes.

00:16:22Frau Sven,

00:16:34Ethan Hale,
00:16:35Legal Director,
00:16:35lowered his head
00:16:36and flipped through the files,
00:16:37as if he was checking
00:16:38whether I was right.
00:16:39Where did you learn German?
00:16:40I lived in Berlin for a while.
00:16:43Your honoratics
00:16:44are very precise.
00:16:45Thank you.
00:16:46And you said
00:16:47you were the junior level?
00:16:48Yes.
00:16:49Your five minutes are up.
00:16:50but I can give you ten more
00:16:53on one condition.
00:16:54From here on,
00:16:55you lead the negotiation.
00:17:00She can't!
00:17:01I said she leads.
00:17:03Or you can leave right now.
00:17:05Vanessa,
00:17:06should I take over?
00:17:07Then let's restart
00:17:08from the first part
00:17:09of the proposal.
00:17:10It wasn't because
00:17:10I had prepared in advance.
00:17:12While sorting those 50 pages
00:17:13of materials for Vanessa,
00:17:15I had memorized every word.
00:17:16Plus, I grew up
00:17:17in a diplomatic family.
00:17:18The basics of international
00:17:20trade are as natural
00:17:21to me as breathing.
00:17:22Auf dem Neostmarkt.
00:17:23Wenn ein Kunte
00:17:24lange nicht über den Preis
00:17:25sprieht,
00:17:25sondern nur über Beziehungen,
00:17:27wie würden Sie damit umgehen?
00:17:28Il tajara bella thatha.
00:17:30Nusbit alawala awwalan
00:17:31fennenaqo bescharit.
00:17:33You speak Arabic too?
00:17:35A little.
00:17:36Der japanische Liefstärre
00:17:37ist 6% Günder,
00:17:39aber die Lieferzeit
00:17:39ist instabel.
00:17:41Wie entscheiden Sie?
00:17:42Die erschrippende
00:17:42japanische Aufzugsnummer
00:17:44leiht JPKT04207.
00:17:46Ich würde nicht
00:17:47das nierichte Aufzug wählen,
00:17:48sondern die Säusung
00:17:49mit dem längesten
00:17:50Gesämterrisiko.
00:17:51The framework works.
00:17:52I'll have my legal team
00:17:53follow up with you
00:17:54on the details.
00:17:57His hand was warm
00:17:58and strong
00:17:59and the grip
00:17:59was just right.
00:18:01Clara, right?
00:18:02Yes.
00:18:03You're wasted
00:18:04in the junior level.
00:18:08You lied to everyone!
00:18:11What?
00:18:12You said you only
00:18:13spoke Spanish!
00:18:19I do mainly work
00:18:20in Spanish.
00:18:21What you did
00:18:22in there today
00:18:22that's what you call
00:18:23mainly working in Spanish?
00:18:24Your German
00:18:25is better than mine!
00:18:27Where did that Arabic
00:18:28come from?
00:18:28It's not even
00:18:29on your resume!
00:18:31Vanessa,
00:18:32the project was saved,
00:18:33wasn't it?
00:18:33You did this
00:18:34on purpose!
00:18:35You hid your skills
00:18:37just waiting
00:18:38for a chance
00:18:38like this
00:18:39to show off!
00:18:40What do you think
00:18:41will happen
00:18:42just because
00:18:42you impressed
00:18:43Ethan Hall once?
00:18:44When we're back
00:18:45at the company
00:18:46you're still
00:18:47just that junior translator.
00:18:49Clara,
00:18:49just you wait.
00:18:54Suddenly,
00:18:55I felt a little tired.
00:18:59How did the negotiation go?
00:19:01Did Vanessa crash and burn?
00:19:02The project was saved.
00:19:03How was it saved?
00:19:05Wasn't she...
00:19:05Wait,
00:19:06was it you?
00:19:08I'll tell you
00:19:08when I get back.
00:19:10Clara,
00:19:11you finally made a move!
00:19:14Standing at the exit
00:19:15of the underground garage,
00:19:16I felt the autumn wind
00:19:17blowing in.
00:19:19It was a bit cold.
00:19:21I didn't want to show off.
00:19:22I really didn't.
00:19:24But I didn't want
00:19:25to lose my job either.
00:19:30Mr. Graham,
00:19:31Clara spoke out of turn
00:19:33during the negotiation
00:19:34and completely ignored
00:19:35the company hierarchy.
00:19:37Was the project saved?
00:19:39Yes.
00:19:39but that was...
00:19:40Then that's all
00:19:40that matters.
00:19:41The Halberd deal
00:19:42is worth $40 million.
00:19:44If it had fallen
00:19:45through yesterday,
00:19:46the entire translation
00:19:47department could have
00:19:48packed up.
00:19:54One look at her face
00:19:55and I knew
00:19:56this wasn't over.
00:20:00Clara,
00:20:01how good is your German
00:20:02exactly?
00:20:03I can get by.
00:20:04Can get by?
00:20:05I heard you
00:20:06handled the entire
00:20:07negotiation in German
00:20:08without any problem
00:20:09at Halworth
00:20:10and you even used Arabic?
00:20:12My German
00:20:13just everyday level?
00:20:14Do you know
00:20:15if the company
00:20:15hired a multi-linguished
00:20:16translator like you,
00:20:18the starting salary
00:20:19would be at least
00:20:20$96,000 a year?
00:20:21I have no issues
00:20:22with my current salary.
00:20:23Fine.
00:20:24Come to the meeting room
00:20:25at 2 this afternoon.
00:20:26We need you involved
00:20:28in the follow-up coordination
00:20:29for the Halworth project.
00:20:33Mr. Pierce!
00:20:35I'm the one in charge
00:20:36of the Halwell project!
00:20:37You'll remain in charge
00:20:38but Clara will be involved
00:20:39in the coordination.
00:20:39That's Mr. Graham's decision.
00:20:44Happy now, Clara?
00:20:48Vanessa, I just...
00:20:48You just what?
00:20:49You think because you
00:20:50showed off once yesterday
00:20:51you're on the same level
00:20:52as me now?
00:20:53That's not what I meant.
00:20:55I've been here
00:20:56for seven years.
00:20:57I worked my way up
00:20:58from intern
00:20:59to department leader.
00:21:01And you?
00:21:02A liar
00:21:03who's been hiding everything.
00:21:06Just you wait.
00:21:11Clara,
00:21:11Mr. Hale
00:21:12specifically requested you
00:21:14as the translator
00:21:14for the follow-up coordination.
00:21:16Starting today,
00:21:17you'll be temporarily transferred
00:21:19to the Halwork project team.
00:21:21Okay.
00:21:21But your position
00:21:22will remain junior
00:21:23and salary will stay the same.
00:21:24We'll evaluate it again
00:21:25after the project ends.
00:21:27Got it.
00:21:28Haleworth's supply chain project
00:21:29is divided into three stages.
00:21:30The preliminary framework
00:21:31was already discussed yesterday.
00:21:33Next comes the translation
00:21:34of the detailed terms
00:21:35and contract documents.
00:21:36All files will need
00:21:37English, Spanish, German versions.
00:21:38Clara,
00:21:39can you handle
00:21:39all three language versions
00:21:40at the same time?
00:21:42Yes.
00:21:43Three languages?
00:21:44Since she joined this company,
00:21:45she has only ever worked
00:21:46as a Spanish translator.
00:21:47We don't even know
00:21:48her actual German level.
00:21:49What if something goes wrong?
00:21:51Yesterday's negotiation
00:21:52showed exactly
00:21:53what her level is.
00:22:01It took me two hours
00:22:03to finish the English version
00:22:04and another hour and a half
00:22:05to finish the Spanish version.
00:22:14You're translating that fast.
00:22:16Aren't you afraid
00:22:17of making mistakes?
00:22:18Nope.
00:22:19You better pray
00:22:20you don't make any.
00:22:30Both the speed
00:22:31and quality
00:22:31exceeded expectations.
00:22:33Clara,
00:22:33what exactly
00:22:33have you been doing
00:22:34for the past three years?
00:22:44Hello?
00:22:45Clara?
00:22:47It was Ethan Hall.
00:22:49This is Ethan Hall
00:22:50from Halworth.
00:22:51Mr. Pyrrhus
00:22:51gave me your number.
00:22:52Mr. Hall,
00:22:53what can I do for you?
00:22:54I read the 62 pages
00:22:55you translated today.
00:22:56Was there any problem?
00:22:57No problem at all.
00:22:59It's the most accurate
00:22:59German business translation
00:23:01I've seen
00:23:01in the past three years.
00:23:02Thank you.
00:23:04You're not someone
00:23:04who belongs
00:23:05in a junior position.
00:23:07That is my current position.
00:23:09I know.
00:23:10That's why I'm curious.
00:23:12Halloworth has an internal
00:23:14meeting tomorrow afternoon.
00:23:15It involves partner selection
00:23:16for the Middle Eastern market.
00:23:17I need an Arabic
00:23:18speaking interpreter there.
00:23:20This should go
00:23:20through the company.
00:23:21I know.
00:23:22But I'm asking you directly.
00:23:23Would you like to come?
00:23:26Okay, I will.
00:23:30Clara,
00:23:31maybe you're going
00:23:32to be exposed after all.
00:23:33I knew this day
00:23:34would come eventually,
00:23:35but I just didn't expect
00:23:37it to come this soon.
00:23:41They were from
00:23:41a construction materials group
00:23:43in the UAE.
00:23:44The man leading the meeting
00:23:45looked about 50,
00:23:46wearing a white robe
00:23:47with a serious expression.
00:23:48A young Arab woman
00:23:49sat beside him
00:23:50should be his interpreter.
00:23:52You're here.
00:23:53Today,
00:23:53I may need you
00:23:54to do an interpretation
00:23:54between Arabic and English.
00:23:56Okay.
00:23:56If Vanessa were here,
00:23:57she would probably ask,
00:23:59where did your ablish
00:24:00even come from?
00:24:01The answer is,
00:24:02I lived in Cairo
00:24:03for a year and a half.
00:24:04During that time,
00:24:04my roommate
00:24:05was even Egyptian
00:24:05diplomat's daughter.
00:24:09Standard procedure.
00:24:1015 minutes passed.
00:24:20I lowered my head
00:24:21and typed
00:24:22as if I were taking notes.
00:24:23Then I turned
00:24:24my laptop slightly
00:24:25so Ethan Hale
00:24:26could see the screen.
00:24:27I had typed
00:24:27one line in English.
00:24:29They said they wanted
00:24:29a price down by 20 cent.
00:24:31If that doesn't work,
00:24:31they'll switch suppliers.
00:24:33Ethan Hale's eyes
00:24:34stayed on the screen
00:24:35for one second.
00:24:36His expression
00:24:37didn't change at all,
00:24:38but in the negotiation
00:24:38that followed,
00:24:39his strategy
00:24:40clearly shifted.
00:24:43Your Arabic is excellent.
00:24:45Not that good.
00:24:47Just the daily level.
00:24:48You heard what he said
00:24:49to his interpreter
00:24:49just now.
00:24:51Then you warned me.
00:24:52I just thought
00:24:52the information
00:24:53might be useful
00:24:53for the negotiation.
00:24:55Without that warning
00:24:56from you,
00:24:56this deal would have
00:24:57cost us at least
00:24:58eight million dollars
00:24:59today.
00:25:00Clara,
00:25:00how many languages
00:25:01do you speak?
00:25:02German, French,
00:25:03Japanese, Korean,
00:25:04Spanish, Arabic,
00:25:05and Italian.
00:25:06Eight in total,
00:25:07plus English.
00:25:08And you're in
00:25:08junior level translator
00:25:09at Graham Global.
00:25:10Think that makes sense?
00:25:11It was my choice.
00:25:12Would you be interested
00:25:13in coming to
00:25:14Halworth International
00:25:15Commerce Group?
00:25:15I can start you
00:25:16at $400,000 a year
00:25:17if you're willing
00:25:18to head the
00:25:18International Business
00:25:19Department.
00:25:20There's no upper limit.
00:25:22Mr. Hale,
00:25:23thank you for the offer.
00:25:24I'm not planning
00:25:24to change jobs for now.
00:25:25For now?
00:25:26For now.
00:25:27You can change
00:25:27your mind anytime.
00:25:28A pure black background.
00:25:30Only one line of text,
00:25:31Ethan Hull,
00:25:31and a phone number.
00:25:32It didn't even say
00:25:33President of Halaworth International.
00:25:35This kind of card
00:25:36is usually given
00:25:37to people who already
00:25:38need to know
00:25:38who you are.
00:25:46What are you doing?
00:25:49I was passing by,
00:25:50saw your computer was on.
00:25:52It was off when I left.
00:25:53You went to Halworth
00:25:53again today?
00:25:54Ethan Hull asked you
00:25:55to go, didn't he?
00:25:55It was needed
00:25:56for the project coordination.
00:25:57What kind of project
00:25:58needs you to interpret Arabic?
00:25:59You never said
00:26:00you were that good at Arabic.
00:26:00What else are you hiding?
00:26:01Vanessa,
00:26:02what did you see
00:26:02on my computer?
00:26:03I didn't see anything.
00:26:07She had opened
00:26:08my personal folder.
00:26:10What was inside?
00:26:11Some translation exercise.
00:26:12Casual translations
00:26:13in French,
00:26:14Japanese,
00:26:14and Korean.
00:26:15Things I did
00:26:16when I was bored.
00:26:16If she saw those...
00:26:18Clara,
00:26:19what exactly did you do
00:26:20at Halworth today?
00:26:21Vanessa was losing her mind
00:26:22in the office all afternoon.
00:26:23She went through your computer.
00:26:24I know.
00:26:25You know?
00:26:25Why aren't you reporting her?
00:26:27Report what?
00:26:27I don't have proof.
00:26:28You are way too...
00:26:29Forget it.
00:26:30I heard something today.
00:26:31Do you want to know?
00:26:31Go on.
00:26:32There's something going on
00:26:33between Vanessa Reed
00:26:34and Jason Pierce.
00:26:35What do you mean?
00:26:36I handle reimbursement forms
00:26:37in Atom.
00:26:38Over the past six months,
00:26:39Vanessa has gone out alone
00:26:40with Jason Pierce
00:26:40to talk about work
00:26:4117 times.
00:26:42Every single time
00:26:43it was at that hotel
00:26:44on the west side of the city.
00:26:45Think about that.
00:26:46That has nothing to do with me.
00:26:48How does it have
00:26:49nothing to do with you?
00:26:50Jason Persis made
00:26:51Vanessa department leader
00:26:52because of that relationship.
00:26:56The message basically said
00:26:57the company had found
00:26:58that some employees
00:26:59had failed to provide
00:27:00truthful information
00:27:01about their personal skills
00:27:02when they were hired.
00:27:04All employees were required
00:27:05to update their profiles
00:27:06within a week.
00:27:07Anyone found to have concealed
00:27:09or falsified information
00:27:10would be dealt with
00:27:11as a violation of company policy.
00:27:13Of course I knew.
00:27:14When Vanessa went through
00:27:15my computer,
00:27:16she found those
00:27:17multilingual translation exercises.
00:27:19She must have gone
00:27:20to Jason Pierce.
00:27:21The look on her face
00:27:22was completely different
00:27:23from yesterday.
00:27:24It wasn't anger.
00:27:25It was the calmness
00:27:26of someone who thought
00:27:27she had the situation
00:27:27under control.
00:27:29Clara, you saw that email, right?
00:27:31So what?
00:27:32Are you planning
00:27:33to update your profile?
00:27:34I'm still thinking about it.
00:27:36I suggest you do it soon.
00:27:38If they find out
00:27:39you hid something,
00:27:40that'll be a very serious matter.
00:27:42Thank you for the reminder, Vanessa.
00:27:47A pure black background.
00:27:50One line of text.
00:27:53On the back,
00:27:54there was a handwritten line,
00:27:56very small.
00:27:58I hadn't noticed it before.
00:28:01It hadn't come to that yet.
00:28:04There are two things
00:28:06on the agenda today.
00:28:07First,
00:28:08the Haleworth International
00:28:09Commerce Group
00:28:10LTD project.
00:28:12The initial handover
00:28:13has been completed
00:28:13and Mr. Hal
00:28:14is very satisfied
00:28:15with the quality
00:28:16of our translation work.
00:28:18The project bonus
00:28:19will be paid out
00:28:19next month.
00:28:20Second,
00:28:21about the employee profile update.
00:28:23Mr. Graham,
00:28:24I have a question.
00:28:25Go ahead.
00:28:26If an employee
00:28:27deliberately hides
00:28:28their skills
00:28:29and caused the company
00:28:30to make mistakes
00:28:30in a racking human resources,
00:28:32does that count
00:28:32as a violation?
00:28:43Then let me give an example.
00:28:44Say an employee
00:28:45only lists Spanish
00:28:46on her profile,
00:28:46but in fact,
00:28:47she is fluent
00:28:47in multiple languages.
00:28:48The company assigns
00:28:49her position and salary
00:28:50according on the standard
00:28:50for a Spanish translator
00:28:51and she never raises
00:28:52any objection.
00:28:53Over three years,
00:28:53without knowing the truth,
00:28:54the company loses out
00:28:55on a huge amount
00:28:56of usable human resources.
00:28:57This kind of behavior
00:28:58is enough.
00:29:00Vanessa,
00:29:01get to the point.
00:29:02The person you're
00:29:02talking about is me,
00:29:03right?
00:29:05So what?
00:29:06Yes.
00:29:06I only listed Spanish
00:29:07on my profile
00:29:08because the position
00:29:09I applied for
00:29:09was junior Spanish translator.
00:29:11I have never made
00:29:11a mistake in during the work.
00:29:13As for the other languages...
00:29:15As for the other languages,
00:29:16you hid your ability.
00:29:17You let the company
00:29:17spend high salaries
00:29:18hiring people
00:29:19for the German,
00:29:19French,
00:29:20and Arabic teams
00:29:20when you alone
00:29:21could do all of their jobs.
00:29:22Isn't that damaging
00:29:23the company's interest?
00:29:24If I alone
00:29:24can replace all of them,
00:29:26then where does that leave you?
00:29:27Vanessa,
00:29:27This has nothing
00:29:28to do with my place.
00:29:29It does.
00:29:30Because what you're
00:29:30really worried about
00:29:31isn't the company's interests.
00:29:32It's the fact that you found out
00:29:33I'm more capable than you.
00:29:34And now your position
00:29:35doesn't feel so secure anymore.
00:29:37You.
00:29:37I'll say it again.
00:29:39Not listing on my profile
00:29:41does not mean hiding.
00:29:42The skills section
00:29:43does not say
00:29:43all skills must be listed.
00:29:45I chose to show
00:29:46only the skills required
00:29:47for the job I applied for.
00:29:48That is my right.
00:29:50That is my right.
00:29:51That is my right.
00:29:55That is my right.
00:29:57That is my right.
00:30:14That is my right.
00:30:15Clara was added to the team
00:30:16later on a temporary basis.
00:30:18The part she took in
00:30:19was just translation handover.
00:30:21She wasn't on the original team list.
00:30:23So when the bonus is distributed
00:30:24She shouldn't receive the full amount
00:30:26That was a vicious move
00:30:27She stopped attacking me over the hidden skills issue
00:30:30Because she knew she couldn't win that fight
00:30:31So she switched to money instead
00:30:33Well, Vanessa does have a point
00:30:36Clara joined halfway through
00:30:38Then Hale specifically requested me
00:30:43Mr. Hale
00:30:44What brings you here?
00:30:46I came to deliver the contract
00:30:49I heard your meeting
00:30:50The door wasn't fully closed
00:30:52The core negotiation of this project was completed by Clara
00:30:54On the day we first met
00:30:56She saved the entire conversation in the final five minutes
00:30:58During the meeting with a UAE client
00:30:59She used Arup to win me $8 million in profit margin
00:31:02How your company disroots bonus is your business
00:31:04But I suggest you figure out
00:31:05Who really is the key person in this project
00:31:09One more thing
00:31:10There is a clause in this contract
00:31:12From now on
00:31:13All translation handover work for Crownwealth
00:31:15Will be handled by Clara
00:31:16If she is no longer at White Global
00:31:18This contract automatically becomes void
00:31:20Mr. Hale
00:31:21You mean I've made myself very clear
00:31:22This contract is worth $80 million a year
00:31:25The handover translator is Clara
00:31:27If you replace her
00:31:28The contract is void
00:31:31Clara
00:31:32Mr. Graham?
00:31:33Starting today
00:31:34You are no longer on the junior level
00:31:36Then which level I'm in?
00:31:38Deputy director of the translation department
00:31:41As for your salary
00:31:42We'll discuss it privately
00:31:44Mr. Graham!
00:31:45She's only been here for three years
00:31:47I've been here for seven
00:31:48Vanessa, sit down
00:31:51Tu mérites mieux que ça
00:31:56She actually speaks eight languages?
00:31:57She stayed in the junior level for three years?
00:31:59How has that happened?
00:32:00Didn't you heard Ethan Hall's contract?
00:32:01He specifically asked for her
00:32:03$80 million
00:32:03Vanessa's face looks amazing
00:32:05I mean the color
00:32:08That line in French
00:32:09You understood it?
00:32:10I did
00:32:11Then what do you think?
00:32:12I'm thinking about it
00:32:13Take your time
00:32:19Clara
00:32:19Let's have a chat
00:32:22You hid for three years
00:32:24And now everything is out in the open
00:32:26Do you really think your life here
00:32:28Will be easy from now on?
00:32:29Are you threatening me?
00:32:31I'm reminding you
00:32:32Do you think becoming deputy director
00:32:34Solves everything?
00:32:35The translation department's connections
00:32:37Client relationships
00:32:38And internal resources
00:32:39Are all in my hands
00:32:41You're a newcomer
00:32:42Who just got promoted
00:32:43You won't be able to handle any of it
00:32:45What are you trying to say?
00:32:47Give me your position
00:32:49You can keep working as the handover translator
00:32:52And take your project bonus
00:32:53I'll manage the department
00:32:55And you handle the business
00:32:57We both get what we want
00:32:59What if I don't want to?
00:33:01Then I'll let you know
00:33:03Ability isn't the only thing that matters in reality
00:33:10It tasted awful
00:33:12Vanessa was right
00:33:13Ability isn't the only thing that matters
00:33:16But there is one thing she's wrong
00:33:18Thinking she was the only one who had the connection
00:33:23On Monday, something major happened at Graham Global
00:33:26The company had received a new project
00:33:28A fashion brand from Lyon, France
00:33:30It required a full set of French to English brand translation
00:33:34And market localization services
00:33:36Jason Perry had brought this project back through an old client
00:33:40The amount was not huge
00:33:42But it mattered a lot for the company's brand expansion
00:33:45The problem was
00:33:46One of the two translators on the French team
00:33:48Had just resigned last month
00:33:50The other was on maternity leave
00:33:52There's no one left on the French team
00:33:55What are we supposed to do with this project?
00:33:59Clara, what level is your French?
00:34:02It works
00:34:03What do you mean by that?
00:34:04Can you handle high-end French brand localization?
00:34:07Yes
00:34:09Good
00:34:10Then you're taking this project
00:34:12The director of the French side
00:34:14Personally called Daniel Graham after looked through
00:34:19Is your translator French?
00:34:21The language feels incredibly authentic
00:34:23Yes
00:34:23We have a dedicated French translation team
00:34:29Clara, the French side is extremely satisfied
00:34:32They've added another project
00:34:34The full translation of their product manuals
00:34:36It's worth $3 million
00:34:37Okay
00:34:39I'll approve your project bonus for this month separately
00:34:41Thank you, Mr. Graham
00:34:47Please note, everyone
00:34:49Project assignments in the Translation Department
00:34:51Should follow departmental procedures
00:34:52No one should skip the leader and take projects directly
00:35:01Clara, do you really speak eight languages?
00:35:04Yes
00:35:05Do you know how rare someone like you is in the translation industry?
00:35:08I know
00:35:09Then why did you
00:35:12Forget it
00:35:12There is something I should tell you
00:35:14Vanessa has a real problem with you
00:35:15She has brought it up with me several times already
00:35:17Yes, I heard
00:35:18You better be careful
00:35:20She has certain
00:35:23Connections in the company
00:35:24Mr. Pierce, about you and Vanessa
00:35:26What about us?
00:35:28Nothing
00:35:33Clara, Vanessa and I don't have the kind of relationship you might be thinking of
00:35:36She got promoted to team lead because she had been here long enough and knew the business well
00:35:42That's all
00:35:43I thought of the 17 hotel reimbursement claims Mia had mentioned
00:35:46Human nature really is an interesting thing
00:35:51The way people looked at me was strange
00:35:54It wasn't admiration or envy
00:35:56It was more like
00:35:58Avoidance
00:35:59Something happened
00:36:01What happened?
00:36:03Vanessa reported you to Daniel Graham
00:36:06Reported me for what?
00:36:08She said you privately leaked Graham Global's internal pricing strategy to Haleworth while you were translating for them
00:36:13That's a false accusation
00:36:15I know
00:36:17But she has evidence
00:36:18What evidence?
00:36:20She said she found a file on your computer
00:36:22Screenshots of a chat between you and Ethan Hale's assistant, Frank Young
00:36:26The chat mentions Graham Global's internal pricing
00:36:29There is no such file on my computer
00:36:31She says there is
00:36:32And she already showed it to Daniel Graham
00:36:34Daniel wants you in his office tomorrow morning to explain yourself
00:36:39That so-called chat record?
00:36:41It's fake
00:36:42I sneaked a look at it
00:36:46The chat time was last Wednesday at 2pm
00:36:48But you were at the department meeting last Wednesday afternoon
00:36:51Everyone can prove it
00:36:53Then how did she
00:36:54She edited the time in the chat
00:36:56Photoshopped it
00:36:57But she forgot one thing
00:36:58There's a battery indicator in the top right corner of the screenshot
00:37:01That battery display doesn't match your phone model
00:37:04You use a Samsung
00:37:05That screenshot is from an iPhone
00:37:09Mia, I need you to do me a favor
00:37:11Name it
00:37:12You're in administration
00:37:13Can you pull the attendance records and meeting room usage records from last Wednesday afternoon?
00:37:19Yes
00:37:19Pull them
00:37:20Also, Vanessa's reimbursement records, the 17 hotel ones
00:37:24Do you have them?
00:37:25I do
00:37:26Are you finally going to use them?
00:37:27Not to attack her, but to protect myself
00:37:29If she comes after me, I need Daniel Graham to know her credibility has problem
00:37:34Got it
00:37:41Every file had a timestamp and sending record
00:37:44My real chat history with Frank Young was all on Teams with server backups
00:37:50Vanessa could fake screenshots
00:37:54But she couldn't change server data
00:38:02I heard you were reported
00:38:04News travels fast
00:38:05Frank told me
00:38:06Do you need help?
00:38:08No
00:38:09I can handle it myself
00:38:11Are you sure?
00:38:13Yes
00:38:14Fine
00:38:15If you can't handle it, just tell me
00:38:19It won't
00:38:21It won't
00:38:47Did involve Graham Global's pricing
00:38:49But the wording was extremely unnatural
00:38:51Like it had been made up by someone who didn't understand formal business conversation
00:38:56These screenshots are fake
00:38:57Of course you would say that
00:38:59I can prove it
00:39:01This is my full chat history with Frank Young
00:39:04It has server backups and timestamps
00:39:06Please compare them
00:39:11The times don't match
00:39:12The screenshots Vaness provided show that the conversation happened last Wednesday at 2pm
00:39:18But the Teams records show that Clara and Frank Young had no conversation at that time
00:39:23She could have deleted
00:39:24Teams has server backups
00:39:25Even if an employee deletes the chat on their end, the server still keeps it
00:39:28Also, from 2pm to 4pm last Wednesday, I was attending the department meeting in the company
00:39:33The attendance and meeting room booking records can prove it
00:39:38One more thing
00:39:39This screenshot is from an iOS interface
00:39:42I use Android
00:39:43Vanessa, your phone is an iPhone, isn't it?
00:39:46That proves nothing
00:39:47Maybe you changed phones
00:39:49I've been here for three years
00:39:51The device-binding records from IT show that I have never used an iPhone
00:39:58Vanessa, where did these screenshots come from?
00:40:02I-I found them on her computer
00:40:04After you went through my computer last week, I reset the password
00:40:07These screenshots were never on my computer
00:40:11I...
00:40:12You never saw these screenshots on my computer
00:40:14Because they never existed in the first place
00:40:16You made them yourself
00:40:19Vanessa
00:40:20Do you have anything else to explain?
00:40:23Mr. Pierce, say something
00:40:25Vanessa, you went too far this time!
00:40:28Faking evidence to falsely accuse a colleague is a serious violation
00:40:32Vanessa, your position as the department leader is revoked immediately
00:40:35Mr. Graham!
00:40:36Also, your year-end performance rating will be downgraded by one level
00:40:39If anything like this happens again, your employment will be terminated immediately
00:40:42Clara, are you happy now?
00:40:44Vanessa, from beginning to end, you were the one causing trouble for me
00:40:47I never went after you first
00:40:49Because your very existence is a provocation!
00:40:52You speak eight languages, and you hid it for three years!
00:40:56You made my seven years of hard work look like a joke!
00:41:02On the surface, no one in the translation department said much
00:41:06But the group chat had completely blown up
00:41:08She should have been removed ages ago
00:41:11Her translation skills were just average
00:41:13She only got there through connections
00:41:15You guys didn't know?
00:41:16Every translation she submitted had been corrected by Clara
00:41:20What?!
00:41:21I am serious!
00:41:22I have seen the proof-feeding records
00:41:24Then how many has Clara corrected over the past three years?
00:41:27A conservative estimate?
00:41:28Over a hundred
00:41:33Excuse me
00:41:34Which one of you is Clara?
00:41:36Me
00:41:36Hello, I am Victoria Hayes
00:41:39A producer at Harbor Hell Media
00:41:40We are preparing a large-scale international documentary project
00:41:44And we need a multi-lingual translation consultant
00:41:48How did you find me?
00:41:52Industry recommendation
00:41:53The Hale Hoard project
00:41:55And the French brand project you worked on recently
00:41:57Have attracted some attention in the field
00:41:58Harbor Light Media
00:42:00A top-tier production company
00:42:01Mrs. Hayes, what kind of project is it exactly?
00:42:04A documentary about the Strait of Jerala and global trade
00:42:07We need simultaneous interpretation and subtitle proof-feeding across five languages
00:42:12English, French, Italian, Spanish and Arabic
00:42:17We contacted three translation companies
00:42:20But none of them could provide one person who covers all five languages
00:42:24Then someone told me that Graham Global has a girl who speaks eight languages
00:42:29Who told you that?
00:42:31Ethan Hale
00:42:32He is one of the investors in this project
00:42:35Ethan Hale again
00:42:37What is the consulting fee for this project?
00:42:40$50,000 a month
00:42:43The estimated period is three months
00:42:45$150,000
00:42:47That is about six years of my salary at Graham Global
00:42:50If you take it, you will need to travel for two months
00:42:54The Middle East and Europe
00:42:58A bank account in Zurich
00:43:00A property in Munich
00:43:03And a small apartment in the 16th arrondissement of Paris
00:43:08The total value was close to $10 million
00:43:11Language was the thing my parents loved most in their lives
00:43:15My mother used to say, language is the best bridge
00:43:19My father said, if you can understand a person in their mother tongue, you can understand their heart
00:43:24They carved the languages of the world into my blood
00:43:27Then they left
00:43:28So I hid those languages away
00:43:30Along with my memories of them
00:43:32Because every time I speak one of those languages
00:43:34I remember what they looked like when they were by my side teaching it to me
00:43:39German was in Berlin
00:43:40My dad taught it to me
00:43:42While taking me for ice cream in front of the Bransbors gate
00:43:46French was in Paris
00:43:47My mother read ma poisson to me in the original French
00:43:51By the Sennine
00:43:52Arabic was in Cairo
00:43:54The three of us were on a boat on the Nile
00:43:56My father counted the stars while teaching me how to say
00:44:01Ithwan
00:44:02Tratha
00:44:03Every language was a memory
00:44:04And I didn't want to open those memories
00:44:07But I
00:44:12Has Ms. Hayes from Harbor Life reached out to you?
00:44:14She has
00:44:16Why did you introduce this to me?
00:44:18Because you need to step out of it
00:44:20You do not know me
00:44:23I know your parents were diplomats
00:44:24I know your background
00:44:26You investigated me?
00:44:27Before I decide who to work with, I learn about them
00:44:31Clara, your parents were remarkable people
00:44:35You do not need to lock yourself in a corner
00:44:37Just to escape their shadow
00:44:39Go take a look at Harbor Light's project
00:44:41The Strait of Jurada
00:44:42The bridge between Europe and Africa
00:44:44Maybe you should see it for yourself
00:44:47Maybe he was right
00:44:51Mr. Graham, I need to take two months off
00:44:56For what?
00:44:57A documentary project wants me as a translation consultant
00:45:00I need to travel to the Middle East and Europe
00:45:02Two months?
00:45:04What about Halworth's project?
00:45:06I have already completed all the translation drafts for Halworth's second phase
00:45:10The third phase will not start until three months later
00:45:13Are you resigning?
00:45:15I will come back
00:45:17Fine
00:45:18I will approve two months for you
00:45:20Thank you
00:45:23Vanessa
00:45:24Vanessa had been transferred to administration as a clerk
00:45:27The old shine was gone
00:45:29You are going on a business trip?
00:45:30Mm-hmm
00:45:31For how long?
00:45:32Two months
00:45:33You know, when I joined the Graham seven years ago
00:45:35I only spoke one language, too
00:45:42Later, I learned French and Spanish while working here
00:45:45I went from intern to the department leader
00:45:50I thought I had worked really hard
00:45:52You did work hard
00:45:53But without doing anything, you were already above me
00:45:55Eight languages
00:45:57What gives you the right?
00:45:59My parents
00:46:00They paid for it with their lives
00:46:04That was the last time we spoke in this building
00:46:06At the airport, I unexpectedly ran into someone
00:46:10Ethan Hale
00:46:11He was wearing casual clothes
00:46:14It was the first time I had ever seen him out of a suit
00:46:17Clara?
00:46:19What are you doing here?
00:46:21Halivert has business in Dubai
00:46:22What a coincidence
00:46:23Yeah
00:46:25What a coincidence
00:46:30Business class is pretty empty
00:46:32Why are you sitting here?
00:46:33I bought an economy ticket
00:46:37About the inheritance your parents left you
00:46:39You even know about that?
00:46:41The law firm has worked with us before
00:46:43Attorney Wills once mentioned a client who refused to inherit an estate
00:46:47The industry is only so big
00:46:48So the whole world knows?
00:46:51Not the whole world
00:46:52Just me caring about it
00:46:54I turned to look at him
00:46:55And my heart skipped a beat
00:46:57The sunlight in Dubai was completely different from back home
00:47:00Dry
00:47:01Fierce
00:47:02Almost as if it could burn straight through your shadow
00:47:05You are Clara
00:47:06The one who speaks eight languages?
00:47:08Yes
00:47:09Let's do a test
00:47:10Translate a section for me first
00:47:12Martin handed me an Arabic interview outline
00:47:15Okay
00:47:16Architecture boasts highly distinctive features and stands as a precious treasure of Middle Eastern civilizations
00:47:21Its most iconic design elements are domes and arches
00:47:25Finally, she is the one
00:47:26She is better than those three translation companies combined
00:47:31Martin, she has not even given us a quote yet
00:47:34No need
00:47:34It's her
00:47:35The first stop was the antique market in Old Dubai
00:47:39The documentary was going to cover how the Strait of Hormos connects global trade
00:47:43There was a Persian carpet shop here that had been open for 40 years
00:47:47And the owner was a third generation Iranian merchant
00:47:51Intimine
00:47:52La hajit i araba shaifa k anna ta'almunha fil qarra
00:47:56Aywa
00:47:57Kenta sakina fil qadra sagira
00:48:00Ha ha
00:48:01La hajit il qarra fila raha nil
00:48:03Sawatha gamil awil
00:48:07In Casablanca, I interviewed a historian in French
00:48:24He said
00:48:25On the Strait of Gibraltar, shipping and trade are a way of having a dialogue
00:48:29People may come from different backgrounds and speak different languages
00:48:33But their hearts are connected
00:48:34When I translated that sentence into English
00:48:36My voice was a little hossied
00:48:39Because my father had said almost the exact same thing
00:48:42Okay
00:48:44That night
00:48:44The team had dinner at the hotel
00:48:48Clara, Mr. Hale asked whether your work went smoothly today?
00:48:51It went smoothly
00:48:52No need to worry about me
00:48:54Mr. Hale asked me to tell you that he is in the office on the 58th floor of this hotel
00:48:58If you need anything, contact him anytime
00:49:03Hello?
00:49:07Have you eaten?
00:49:09I am eating now
00:49:10The food here may not really suit our taste
00:49:14If you want something else
00:49:15Mr. Hale, why are you telling me this?
00:49:18Because I care about you
00:49:21I do not need your concern, thank you
00:49:23Okay, no more concern
00:49:26Good night
00:49:26Over the next two weeks, we went a lot of places
00:49:29On the flight from Istanbul to Cairo, I received an email
00:49:33Sender, Vanessa
00:49:36Subject, no subject
00:50:06After you left, they laid off the French team and the German team
00:50:07The third stop of the documentary
00:50:10I lived here for a while
00:50:12When the plane landed, I looked out at that familiar city
00:50:16And my heart started beating a little faster
00:50:18In Cairo, the team was filming a section about the history of trade between the Middle East and Europe
00:50:24They needed Arabic interpretation
00:50:29And the first time
00:50:36He said, there is a private collector in Cairo
00:50:47Ma est-ce qu'il y a une diplomatie ?
00:50:55Ben, euh, Michael Bennett ?
00:50:58Michael Bennett, c'était mon père.
00:51:11I remembered the pistachio-flavor ice cream that year.
00:51:19Hello ?
00:51:20You arrived in Cairo ?
00:51:22Yes.
00:51:23What happened ? Your voice sounds off.
00:51:26Nothing.
00:51:27I flew to Cairo this afternoon. If you have time...
00:51:30Why do you always show up wherever I am ?
00:51:32Because Victoria has your itinerary.
00:51:34She is running a project I invested in, so I have the right to see it.
00:51:37That is called stalking.
00:51:39That is called paying attention.
00:51:43There is a difference.
00:51:46The next afternoon, Ethan Hale went with me to a private warehouse on the outskirts of Cairo.
00:51:52It was not big, but the temperature and humidity were carefully controlled.
00:51:57The kind of place used specifically to store antiques.
00:52:02After the manager opened the door, I saw three full shelves.
00:52:05Every piece had a handwritten tag hanging on it.
00:52:10It was my father's handwriting.
00:52:14An 18th century style Meissen porcelain vase.
00:52:19Purchased at the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, 2008.
00:52:24Clara Bennett.
00:52:26I was eight years old in Istanbul with my dad.
00:52:29He took me to the Grand Bazaar.
00:52:31I kept asking for Turkish ice cream and he said we would go after looking at that little stall.
00:52:35That stall was selling these old porcelain pieces.
00:52:38I did not remember any of it.
00:52:39But my dad did.
00:52:41For three years, I hid everything about them away.
00:52:44The languages, the inheritance, the memories.
00:52:46I thought as long as I did not touch any of it, I could pretend they had never left.
00:52:51But they had always been with me.
00:52:54Your father was an extraordinary man.
00:52:59I know.
00:53:01Then you should become someone extraordinary too.
00:53:04Instead of hiding yourself in a position far below your level.
00:53:10That night, I called Attorney Wills.
00:53:13Attorney Wills, I will handle the inheritance.
00:53:16Miss Bennett.
00:53:16Finally!
00:53:17Donate the Zurich accounts and the properties according to the original plan.
00:53:20But I am keeping the porcelain collection in Cairo.
00:53:22Understood.
00:53:23That is wonderful.
00:53:24I will arrange it right away.
00:53:25One more thing.
00:53:26Go ahead.
00:53:27Did my father leave any letter or document for me?
00:53:30Not a legal document.
00:53:31Something personal?
00:53:33Yes.
00:53:33A letter.
00:53:34He noted that it should be given to you when you came to collect the antiques.
00:53:38Send it to me.
00:53:40Attorney Wills sent the letter to my hotel.
00:53:43I sat in my room for 10 minutes.
00:53:45Before finally working up the courage to open the letter.
00:53:49The letter was not long.
00:53:52Clara.
00:53:53When you see this letter, your mother and I should no longer be by your side.
00:53:56Knowing your personality, I guess you will probably run away for a while.
00:54:00You may seal away the memories connected to us, along with all those languages.
00:54:04Maybe it is because every language is tied to us.
00:54:07One sentence in German will remind you of landscape in Berlin.
00:54:10One sentence in Arabic will remind you of the stars in Cairo.
00:54:13But Clara, language is not a chain.
00:54:16Language is wings.
00:54:17Your mother spent her life building bridges.
00:54:19I spent mine planting seeds.
00:54:21You are that bridge and seed.
00:54:23Don't shrink yourself into the dark.
00:54:25You are exceptional.
00:54:26You are smart, gifted.
00:54:27And you should do what you are really good at.
00:54:29Trying to plant seeds in your own way.
00:54:31You are our pride.
00:54:32Mom and dad will always love you.
00:54:34There was a water stain on the paper.
00:54:36I did not know whether he left it when he wrote the letter.
00:54:39Or whether I had just left it.
00:54:40My dad was right.
00:54:41Language is not a chain.
00:54:43It is wings.
00:54:46In Madrid, I interviewed a flamenco dancer in Spanish.
00:54:50Each language has its own rhythm.
00:54:52Once your body remembers it, you will never forget it.
00:54:55She says, I wrote that sentence down in my translation notes.
00:54:59The final stop was Venice.
00:55:01Omar, the Arab old bookseller.
00:55:03He had his own antique bookshop in the best spot on the busiest square in Venice.
00:55:07He was in his sixties and had lived in Italy for 30 years.
00:55:11And the story of him moved me the most.
00:55:26What happened after that?
00:55:30Then I had 10 years to learn Italian.
00:55:32And over 10 years to make sure everyone on that road would call me Mr. Omar.
00:55:37The language is not only the tradition.
00:55:39It's the way in which you can respect.
00:55:42Keep this part.
00:55:43Original audio with subtitles.
00:55:46Clara, your translation almost made me cry.
00:55:48In Venice, I completed the final three interviews in Italian.
00:55:51Two months, two continents, and eight languages.
00:55:54My dad was right.
00:55:56Language is not a chain.
00:55:58It is wings.
00:56:03The day I came back, it was late December.
00:56:07New York's winter was cold, but the air carried a familiar scent.
00:56:11Clara, the director position in the translation department is open.
00:56:16Mm-hmm.
00:56:18I want you to take it.
00:56:19What is the salary?
00:56:23$200,000.
00:56:25Okay.
00:56:26And just like that, in less than half a year,
00:56:29I went from a junior role to the director of the translation department.
00:56:34On the day I officially took the role,
00:56:36I stood in the meeting room and made a speech to the people in the translation department.
00:56:42I know many of you have questions about me.
00:56:45Why does someone who hid for three years suddenly get to become director?
00:56:49I am not going to explain.
00:56:50From today on, results will do the talking.
00:56:52I will personally proofread everyone's translation drafts.
00:56:56I have only one standard, accuracy.
00:56:58If you cannot do it, I will teach you.
00:57:00If you still cannot do it after that, you will be replaced.
00:57:06Translation is not a word game.
00:57:08One wrong number in a trade contract can mean tens of millions in losses.
00:57:13Strictness is the bare minimum.
00:57:17Hello?
00:57:18Director Bennett, congratulations on the promotion.
00:57:20Thank you.
00:57:21$200,000?
00:57:22Mm-hmm.
00:57:23I offered $400,000 before.
00:57:25I know.
00:57:26Still not considering it?
00:57:27Not for now.
00:57:28But thank you for all your help.
00:57:29The offer, the Harbor Light Media Project, that day in Cairo.
00:57:32You don't need to thank me.
00:57:33Those weren't favors.
00:57:34Then what were they?
00:57:35Things I wanted to do.
00:57:37Are you free this weekend?
00:57:39For what?
00:57:40Dinner.
00:57:41No work, no projects.
00:57:44Okay.
00:57:47He was driving a very ordinary gray sedan.
00:57:50Not the kind of luxury car I had imagined.
00:57:52Your car doesn't really match your status.
00:57:54Cars are for driving, not for showing off.
00:57:56I'm taking you to a Japanese restaurant.
00:57:58It only has eight seats.
00:58:01You're paying?
00:58:03Obviously.
00:58:06This place has the best sashimi in the whole city.
00:58:09How do you know?
00:58:10I've tried every Japanese restaurant in the city.
00:58:14This man.
00:58:16Clara, I'm going to be direct.
00:58:17Since that day in Cairo, or maybe even earlier, since the first time you spoke German at Hellworth International, I...
00:58:22You what?
00:58:23I knew you were someone I didn't want to miss.
00:58:26Right now, you're the only person in my mind.
00:58:29You really are way too...
00:58:31Too what?
00:58:32Too direct.
00:58:34You don't like it?
00:58:37I didn't say I didn't like it.
00:58:42That night, he drove me home.
00:58:44Downstairs, he said...
00:58:46I'm flying to South Korea for a business trip tomorrow.
00:58:50How long?
00:58:51A week.
00:58:53Okay.
00:58:54Will you miss me?
00:58:56No.
00:59:00Liar.
00:59:02Maybe a little.
00:59:08Maybe a little.
00:59:11I watched his taillights disappear.
00:59:15Over the next three months, many things happened at once.
00:59:19The Hellworth International Project successfully completed its third phase, and Graham Global brought in nearly $80 million in revenue from
00:59:28it.
00:59:28When Daniel Graham reviewed the monthly report, he said to Jason Pierce...
00:59:34We should have put Clara on it from the start.
00:59:40After Vanessa resigned from Graham Global, she became a director at a small translation company.
00:59:46Three months later, that company faced a massive compensation claim because of a major translation mistake.
00:59:51A German contract had its tariff clauses mistranslated, causing the client to lose $20 million.
00:59:57That translation was done by Vanessa Reid herself.
01:00:01Her problem with German honorophies had finally been exposed on a bigger stage.
01:00:05When the news reached Graham Global, some people started mocking her in the group chat.
01:00:10I only said one thing.
01:00:12Stop talking about it.
01:00:14Everyone has to take responsibility for their own choices.
01:00:24Hello?
01:00:25Clara? It's Uncle George. Your father's old colleague.
01:00:30Uncle George?
01:00:31I saw you on TV. Translation consultant. Five languages.
01:00:35Clara, your parents must be so proud of you in heaven.
01:00:37Uncle George, how did you see...?
01:00:40Exactly like Michael.
01:00:41And your Arabic.
01:00:42That Cairo accent of your father's, I recognized it the moment I heard it.
01:00:47Clara, before your father passed away, he said something to me.
01:00:50What did he say?
01:00:52Clara will become a better bridge than I ever was.
01:00:55That night, Ethan Hale came back from South Korea and went straight to my building.
01:01:01Come out.
01:01:02For what?
01:01:04Want to take a walk with you?
01:01:06The street was cold and the street light stretched our shadows long across the pavement.
01:01:12I watched the documentary.
01:01:14How was it?
01:01:15Not good enough for your translation. The director was average.
01:01:18Don't say that about Martin.
01:01:20But your parts were excellent. You weren't just translating in the interview, you were carrying the emotion across.
01:01:25My father once said, if you understand someone's mother tongue, you can understand their heart.
01:01:31You did that.
01:01:34We walked for a long time until we reached a river.
01:01:37Clara.
01:01:37Yeah?
01:01:38Hal Wilde is setting up an international cultural exchange department next year.
01:01:41It will focus on cross-border cultural projects, documentaries, publishing, exhibitions, forums.
01:01:46I need someone to lead it.
01:01:47You're trying to poach me again?
01:01:49I'm not poaching you. I'm building a position for you.
01:01:51What do you mean?
01:01:52You're not meant to be just a translator.
01:01:55Translation is a tool.
01:01:56And you should use that tool to do something bigger.
01:01:59Your father's porcelain collection could become an exhibition about the history of global trade.
01:02:04Use your eight languages to tell that story to the world.
01:02:06What's the salary?
01:02:08Name your price.
01:02:09You don't think I'm taking advantage of you?
01:02:11Then let me take advantage of you.
01:02:13What?
01:02:14Be my girlfriend. No salary needed.
01:02:16Ethan!
01:02:16I'm joking. One million dollars a year plus project dividends, but the girlfriend part is serious too.
01:02:21Streetlight fell across his face, softening the sharp, cold lines he usually carried.
01:02:27Two days later, I gave him my answer.
01:02:30I said yes to both.
01:02:31Daniel Graham personally walked me to the entrance.
01:02:34Clara, you are the most underestimated employee in Graham Global's history.
01:02:37Mr. Graham, you also gave me the opportunity.
01:02:40You earned that opportunity yourself.
01:02:43Speaking of which, what I said in German at the annual meeting...
01:02:46The 70% raise?
01:02:48You understood it back then, didn't you?
01:02:50I did.
01:02:51Then why didn't you...
01:02:53Forget it.
01:02:54I wish you all the best.
01:02:56Thank you.
01:02:57Three years.
01:02:58A $24,000 in salary.
01:03:00A junior level position.
01:03:02I had repaid what needed to be repaid.
01:03:05It was time to start over.
01:03:11Hale Wharton's International Cultural Exchange Department was officially established.
01:03:16I became its first director.
01:03:18The first project is an international touring exhibition.
01:03:22The core exhibits are the 40 plus antiques my father collected from around the world.
01:03:26The exhibition will open simultaneously in five cities.
01:03:29Berlin, Cairo, Istanbul, Paris, and New York.
01:03:34I'll personally translate the narration for each city into the local language.
01:03:38On opening day, more than 300 people came to the New York venue.
01:03:42Uncle George stood in the exhibition hall, looking at my father's handwritten labels on the porcelain pieces, tears streaming down
01:03:49his face.
01:03:51Michael, your daughter made it.
01:03:54Clara, how about turning this exhibition into a second season of the documentary?
01:03:59We can talk about it.
01:04:02I told you, you were never just a translator.
01:04:06Ethan Hale stood in the corner of the exhibition hall, staying away from the front.
01:04:11He was wearing a black suit, hands in my pockets, watching me give interviews under the spotlight, that look in
01:04:17his eye.
01:04:19You are someone I didn't want to miss.
01:04:24Ms. Bennett, you are fluent in eight languages, but I heard you spent three years as a junior translator at
01:04:29a trading company, making only $24,000 a year.
01:04:33Yes.
01:04:34Why did you hide your abilities?
01:04:38Because I was running away.
01:04:40Every language was tied to memories of my parents.
01:04:44I thought if I hid them away, it would stop hurting.
01:04:50But later I realized that languages do not disappear just because you refuse to speak them.
01:04:55They stay in your blood, waiting for you to speak.
01:04:58What finally made you decide to speak up?
01:05:00A letter.
01:05:02My father wrote it.
01:05:04He said if I have the ability to make a difference, I should use it.
01:05:08On the second day of the exhibition, someone unexpected showed up.
01:05:14Vanessa.
01:05:15What are you doing here?
01:05:17I saw it on the news.
01:05:19Your father collected these?
01:05:21Yes.
01:05:22They are beautiful.
01:05:25Clara, I owe you an apology.
01:05:28You do not have-
01:05:29Let me speak.
01:05:31I was jealous of you.
01:05:32I had been jealous since the first time you opened your mouth and spoke German.
01:05:36It took me seven years to climb up to Team Leader, but you were already above me without even trying.
01:05:39I could not accept that.
01:05:41So you chose to frame me.
01:05:43Yes.
01:05:44And then I paid the price.
01:05:45After I left Graham Global, that German contract at the translation company, you heard about it, right?
01:05:50I did.
01:05:50Because you used to correct my work, I never knew what my real level was.
01:05:53Once you were not there anymore, I finally realized-
01:05:56Vanessa.
01:05:57Your hard work was real.
01:05:58Those seven years of German were not wasted either.
01:06:00You just chose the wrong direction at certain moments.
01:06:03You do not hate me?
01:06:04No.
01:06:05The forged screenshots are in the past now.
01:06:08You really are different from before.
01:06:10Back then, I could not even face myself.
01:06:13The exhibition is wonderful.
01:06:14Your father must be very happy.
01:06:19The exhibition ran for two months across five cities, with more than one or 120,000 visitors in total.
01:06:34After the closing ceremony, Ethan Hole found me on the hotel terrace.
01:06:39Tired?
01:06:41A little.
01:06:42Five cities, two months.
01:06:44You handled all the narration and translation work across every language by yourself.
01:06:51I am used to it.
01:06:52Do not get used to carrying everything alone.
01:07:02This is not a proposal, so don't be nervous.
01:07:04I breathed a sigh of relief, and felt a little to point at the same time.
01:07:08It is custom-made, because you said your father once told you that you were the bridge.
01:07:17This...
01:07:17There is a line engraved on the bridge.
01:07:20It has the word bridge, engraved in nine languages.
01:07:25The ninth language is Russian.
01:07:27I studied for three months just to learn one word.
01:07:30The Cairo night wind swept across the terrace.
01:07:32In the distance, the banks of the Nile were bright with lights.
01:07:37Ethan Hale, you really are.
01:07:39What?
01:07:41Too good at this.
01:07:44Only with you.
01:07:51Five years later, Halevin's International Cultural Exchange Department had become an industry bandmark.
01:07:58It ran more than 20 cross-spree cultural projects every year, with revenue exceeding 200 million.
01:08:04Revenue is up another 30% this year.
01:08:06Mm-hmm.
01:08:09Your salary should be adjusted this year.
01:08:11To how much?
01:08:13You tell me.
01:08:14One dollar.
01:08:15Seriously?
01:08:17Put the rest into a scholarship to support young people studying languages.
01:08:21Name it after my parents.
01:08:23The Michael Bennett and Evelyn Chen Language Scholarship.
01:08:26How do you know my mother's name?
01:08:28I am your husband.
01:08:30How could I not know your mother's name?
01:08:32Outside the window was the skyline of the whole city.
01:08:38It was no longer that rental apartment with the broken heating.
01:08:41But sometimes, I still think of that window, and the nights when I crouched there eating soup.
01:08:47Back then, I was fluent in eight languages, made $24,000 a year, and rejected a $10 million inheritance.
01:08:53I hid myself in the deepest corner, thinking that as long as I stayed silent, it would not hurt.
01:08:58In his letter, my father wrote,
01:09:00Be brave enough to be yourself.
01:09:02It took me a long time to understand that.
01:09:07But luckily, I did it.
01:09:08But luckily, I did it.
01:09:10Things were useful.
01:09:11See how awesome music were persons.
01:09:12Like a Google unit.
01:09:12Do everything neurological cells during the computer that I met,
01:09:12And for me to struggle, don't cover her habit of doing things like that white.
01:09:12In this room in my life, as well, we know a strong lady's style here.
01:09:12So îay is at your das anti- treasure.
