00:00:00Here's $100,000.
00:00:02Stay away from my daughter.
00:00:04Take the money and disappear from her life right now.
00:00:07Ma'am, what do you mean?
00:00:09Your daughter is stunningly beautiful, elegant, refined, and unparalleled.
00:00:14Heir of Future 6 Building Co. Ltd.
00:00:16So.
00:00:20I need more.
00:00:29Bro, go on a blind date for me.
00:00:32You're crazy.
00:00:33I'm not crazy, bro, help me.
00:00:36You can sub for a blind date.
00:00:39Yeah.
00:00:40Just don't admit that you're not me and you're good.
00:00:46That sounds like the last honest thing before a scam.
00:00:53Her name is Jiang Wanji.
00:00:55She's a group CEO, 28 years old, 5 foot 7.
00:00:58Her resume is like a cheat code, and her temper has no breaks.
00:01:00Then you should go yourself.
00:01:02A rich guy and a female CEO.
00:01:03A CEO, falling for a regular guy.
00:01:05A match made in heaven.
00:01:06I don't dare.
00:01:08You're a rich kid driving a luxury car, and you're afraid of a blind date.
00:01:11Money can solve 90% of problems, but she's the other 10%.
00:01:18Last month she went on a blind date, asked about his 5-year career plan.
00:01:21He said he wanted to open a cafe, a peaceful life.
00:01:24Guess what she said.
00:01:25What's the average revenue per square foot of a cafe?
00:01:27What's the labor cost ratio?
00:01:30Under prime location rent pressure, what month would the cash flow break?
00:01:34I, I don't know.
00:01:35If there's a sudden shutdown, your risk fund pool, how many days can it last?
00:01:40What are you relying on to support your peaceful life?
00:01:42You know that guy?
00:01:43What's he doing now?
00:01:45Became a monk.
00:01:46He's studying for the civil service.
00:01:48Jiang Wanji basically forced him to study for the civil service,
00:01:51saying that a government job is the only safe choice.
00:01:54Well, that's good.
00:01:55At least he's contributing to the nation's development.
00:01:58A good deed.
00:01:58And the month before that, a finance guy, a returnee talked about macroeconomics with her.
00:02:03I think the current economy is booming.
00:02:04The capital market has lots of untapped opportunities.
00:02:07Then what's your take on the U.S. Treasury yield curve inversion?
00:02:10The inverted yield spread between 10-year and 2-year.
00:02:13What impact does it have on the substantial contraction of global liquidity?
00:02:17Have you done stress tests?
00:02:18This, this topic is a bit broad.
00:02:20You're better off selling financial products at a bank lobby,
00:02:22not discussing macroeconomics.
00:02:24This meal's on me.
00:02:25Goodbye.
00:02:26What kind of blind date is this?
00:02:28This is a top investment bank's final round interview.
00:02:31And I'm a low-level clerk making 8,000 a month.
00:02:33Wouldn't I be a lamb to the slaughter?
00:02:35You're different.
00:02:36How am I different?
00:02:37You're broke.
00:02:41Say that again, I dare you.
00:02:43I'll use this sausage stick to skewer you like a fishball.
00:02:45I'm not insulting you.
00:02:47I mean, you're level-headed, you have no baggage.
00:02:50You're not afraid she'll reject you.
00:02:51I'm scared.
00:02:52What are you afraid of?
00:02:54Afraid she'll like me.
00:02:55A proletarian like me can't handle capital's affection.
00:03:00Cheng Yen, get a grip.
00:03:01The chances of Zhang Wanji liking you are lower than my mom not pushing marriage.
00:03:05Then why did you bring me here?
00:03:06To buy some time.
00:03:08I'm picking up my ex at the airport tonight.
00:03:09Tomorrow, spa with Xiaomi.
00:03:11The day after.
00:03:12You're risking my life for girls.
00:03:14The password is 6-8s.
00:03:16There's 2,000 in it.
00:03:195,000.
00:03:2110,000.
00:03:23Money talk between bros hurts feelings.
00:03:29So I'll swipe the card first, to avoid hurting the friendship.
00:03:3729.99, free shipping, mud.
00:03:40Excuse me, sir.
00:03:41This is a high-end members-only restaurant.
00:03:43Improper attire is not allowed.
00:03:45Room no, 1.
00:03:47Reserved by Mr. Joe Yee.
00:03:48I'm his bro.
00:03:51So you're Mr. Joe's honored guest.
00:03:53My apologies.
00:03:54I was blind.
00:03:55The world of the rich, even their face switching is so smooth.
00:03:58The way he bowed, you'd think I was his long-lost grandfather.
00:04:06Is this food?
00:04:07This is eating my life.
00:04:09My salary of 8,000 a month can't even afford an appetizer here.
00:04:13Um.
00:04:14Do you have beef noodles?
00:04:15With a fried egg on top.
00:04:17Sorry, sir, we don't have that.
00:04:18We only serve high-end private cuisine.
00:04:21Smashed cucumber, then.
00:04:22With extra garlic.
00:04:23Not that either, sir.
00:04:25Even the rice is charged per person.
00:04:26A small bowl of plain rice is 88 bucks.
00:04:29Is this rice planted by the Jade Emperor himself?
00:04:33Can I just drink water?
00:04:34Yes, sir.
00:04:36Lin Kuan mineral water.
00:04:37Small cup is $8.
00:04:38Large cup is $16.
00:04:40Sure.
00:04:41A small cup, Lin Kuan.
00:04:43Lin Kuan mineral water.
00:04:45Zhou Yi.
00:05:00Hello, Miss Jiang.
00:05:03You don't look like your photo.
00:05:05Oh no, Zhou Yi's face is Nuwa's custom-made masterpiece.
00:05:08My face is just a flicked-off mud splatter.
00:05:11The difference is huge.
00:05:12I've been busy at work lately, staying up late, lost so much weight I look different.
00:05:20Seems like you didn't lose weight evenly.
00:05:24My surname is Lin.
00:05:26I'm Wungi's mother.
00:05:28Hello, Mrs. Lin.
00:05:29Don't call me that yet.
00:05:30I came here today to make things clear before this meal.
00:05:34Here comes the classic rich family drama scene.
00:05:36Call off the engagement.
00:05:37Check.
00:05:38Insult.
00:05:38I've never experienced it, but I know the drill.
00:05:41Here is $100,000.
00:05:43Stay away from my daughter.
00:05:45$100,000?
00:05:46I graduated three years ago, stayed up writing copy every day till I went bald, got chewed
00:05:51out by clients.
00:05:52My bank card's six-digit password protects a two-digit balance.
00:05:55A normal person at this moment should feel deeply insulted by capital, should stand up in
00:05:59anger and pick up that $8 water and pour it on her face.
00:06:01Mrs. Lin.
00:06:02Can love be bought with money?
00:06:03I really wanted to say that, but before I opened my mouth, all those collection bills
00:06:08in my life like a waterfall drowning me completely.
00:06:10No.
00:06:12Mrs. Lin.
00:06:13Not enough, young man.
00:06:14You should know how to be content.
00:06:16This amount is already far beyond what someone of your class is worth.
00:06:20Mrs. Lin, you misunderstand.
00:06:23Your offer is very insulting.
00:06:28$100,000 insults you.
00:06:31I mean, for a daughter like yours, $100,000 a month is fine, but a buyout costs more.
00:06:49What did you say?
00:06:54Oh no, I went too far this time.
00:06:56Her face looks like someone took her pearl necklace and swapped it for cheap street fish
00:06:59balls.
00:07:00The words are out.
00:07:02It's too late to jump out the window.
00:07:04Forget it.
00:07:09Mrs. Lin.
00:07:10Business negotiation is about valuation.
00:07:12You can't just make an offer based on your feelings.
00:07:15You have to look at the actual market value of the goods.
00:07:18Your daughter is 28, at her prime.
00:07:20She's a group CEO.
00:07:21She has top-notch decision-making and vast social resources.
00:07:25Good looks too.
00:07:26Highly educated.
00:07:27High net worth.
00:07:28She's definitely the dating market's top blue chip stock.
00:07:31And her emotional stability's not bad.
00:07:34Decent.
00:07:34Haven't flipped the table yet.
00:07:36That shows great emotional control.
00:07:38So, decent indeed.
00:07:40So, a talent like this is an extremely short supply in the market.
00:07:43You offer a measly 100 grand to make me back off.
00:07:46Essentially, you're using an ultra-low price to maliciously buy back a potential competitor.
00:07:50Potential competitor.
00:07:51What do you think you are?
00:07:54Convertible bond.
00:07:57Why a convertible bond?
00:07:59Downside protection.
00:08:00Upside unlimited.
00:08:01Right now, it looks like a worthless debt.
00:08:03But once the market picks up, it can convert to stock anytime.
00:08:06Becoming an immeasurable high-value asset.
00:08:08Interesting.
00:08:09Young man.
00:08:10Your logic is clear.
00:08:11You shut up.
00:08:16Wow, I see it now.
00:08:18The CEO doesn't call the shots.
00:08:20Nor does the chairman.
00:08:21It's this pearl necklace that calls the shots.
00:08:25Joe Yee, don't think that by being a smooth talker and talking nonsense you can get into
00:08:30our Jiang family.
00:08:31I'm telling you.
00:08:32No way.
00:08:33Don't worry, auntie.
00:08:35I'm not trying to get in either.
00:08:36You.
00:08:37Then what are you here for?
00:08:38Joe Yee, that bastard.
00:08:39Told me to help stall for time.
00:08:41But I can't exactly tell the CEO that I was paid $2,000 to be a temporary actor.
00:08:45I'd probably be dead meat.
00:08:47Let's eat.
00:08:48Eat.
00:08:48Mainly hungry.
00:08:49Dragged here straight after work.
00:08:51No dinner yet.
00:08:53Very honest.
00:08:54Order.
00:08:59Excuse me, is there anything cheaper?
00:09:02Like egg fried rice or something?
00:09:04You're not the Joe family's young master.
00:09:06Oh no, the first strike.
00:09:08How could a rich young master complain about this overpriced food?
00:09:12This persona is about to collapse.
00:09:14Mr. Joe, as per your usual habit, this bottle of Romanti has been decanted for you.
00:09:19Enjoy.
00:09:20Holy crap, Romanti or whatever.
00:09:22That name alone doesn't sound like a worker making $1,600 a month could afford to pay for.
00:09:27If I have to foot this bill, I'd be in this restaurant washing dishes for the rest of
00:09:31my life.
00:09:32Mr. Joe, explain yourself.
00:09:39Well, this wine, it's...
00:09:42You can't explain.
00:09:44Because he's not Joe Yee at all.
00:09:48Let me explain.
00:09:50It's not what you think.
00:09:53In my life, I've had many moments I desperately wanted to die.
00:09:57Like in elementary school, my belt broke during the flag raising ceremony.
00:10:00Like sending a confession to the wrong class group chat in college.
00:10:03Or last month, when I tried to send my resignation to my boss, but accidentally sent a stupid meme
00:10:08about resigning instead.
00:10:10But none of those compare to how specific this moment is.
00:10:12So deadly.
00:10:14You bastard.
00:10:15Weren't you supposed to pick up your ex-girlfriend?
00:10:17Why are you here backstabbing me?
00:10:20I got the time mixed up.
00:10:23I'm not his ex-girlfriend.
00:10:25I'm his fiancée.
00:10:27I've seen plenty of his fiancées.
00:10:34Joe Yee, what does the Zhou family mean by this?
00:10:37Are you making fools of the Jiang family?
00:10:40Aunt Lin, I'm so sorry.
00:10:42All the mistakes are mine.
00:10:44I was wrong.
00:10:44I shouldn't have been out of my mind.
00:10:46Of course, it's your fault.
00:10:48You made me wait at the airport for two whole hours.
00:10:50If I hadn't seen your car's location here, I wouldn't have known you actually arranged
00:10:54some random guy to come on a blind date for you.
00:10:57Joe Yee, are you out of your mind?
00:10:58I didn't expect him to do so well.
00:11:01He actually managed to keep it up this long without getting caught.
00:11:04Shut up.
00:11:13What is your name, exactly?
00:11:15Cheng Yan.
00:11:16Cheng as in future, Yan as in inkstone.
00:11:20What do you do?
00:11:22Advertising agency.
00:11:24Entry-level copywriter.
00:11:26How much do you make a month?
00:11:29Oh no.
00:11:30This is the real killer tonight.
00:11:31No matter how well I played it off, once salary comes up, I'm completely exposed.
00:11:37Before tax, about 1600 a month.
00:11:40If you count perfect attendance and meal allowance, I can sometimes get to 1640.
00:11:46So, you took Joe Yee's $2,000 and came here to deceive my daughter.
00:11:58Mom, he was scamming you, not me.
00:12:01What do you mean?
00:12:02From the moment he said I looked thin, I knew he wasn't Joe Yee at all.
00:12:09First, Joe Yee has a black mole on his left earlobe.
00:12:12You don't.
00:12:13Second, Joe Yee has OCD.
00:12:16When he wears a dress shirt, he always buttons the top button.
00:12:19But you, the color of your shirt is already stretched out from washing.
00:12:24Most importantly, Joe Yee has never been this amusing.
00:12:27Why after being exposed, did you keep playing along?
00:12:30Because I was already seated.
00:12:32Standing up and leaving then would only make it more awkward.
00:12:34Makes sense.
00:12:35Since you're already here.
00:12:39Dude, let's go.
00:12:40I'm really scared.
00:12:41That woman Zhang Wanji.
00:12:42What about him?
00:12:44Just leave him here.
00:12:45Friends are meant to be sold out.
00:12:47Besides, he's way better at talking than me.
00:12:49True.
00:12:53Crap.
00:12:54Now it's just me and this bottle of wine that I can't afford even if I work for 10 years.
00:12:59Mr. Cheng.
00:13:00Crap, now it's Mr. Cheng.
00:13:02You're not about to take legal action, are you?
00:13:04Do you know how rude it is to pretend to be someone else on a blind date?
00:13:07I know.
00:13:08Then do you know.
00:13:09The Jiang family hates deception.
00:13:12I know.
00:13:12Since you know all that, how dare you still sit here?
00:13:16Because, you hadn't told me I could leave yet.
00:13:27Aren't you scared?
00:13:28Yes.
00:13:29Can't tell.
00:13:30The more I panic, the more I blabber.
00:13:34No wonder.
00:13:37Onesie.
00:13:38This guy isn't right for you.
00:13:39What kind?
00:13:40No background, no assets.
00:13:42Most importantly, he's dishonest and full of lies.
00:13:45Ma'am, let me interrupt.
00:13:46The first two, no background and no assets, I fully agree and admit.
00:13:50But the third one, I think it's debatable.
00:13:52You dared to scam me, and you still dare to talk about, debatable.
00:13:56You see, although I didn't voluntarily admit that I'm not Zhou Yi,
00:13:59you also never asked me if I was Zhou Yi.
00:14:01You're quibbling.
00:14:02That's sophistry.
00:14:03Yes, you're right.
00:14:04This is indeed sophistry.
00:14:06But sophistry is still a form of argument.
00:14:08At least it shows that I'm not completely useless.
00:14:10I still have one skill.
00:14:12Tomorrow morning I have a brand relaunch meeting.
00:14:14Why are we talking about work?
00:14:16Is this part of the rich family date routine?
00:14:18Our company spent 600 grand on consultants,
00:14:21and they gave me a plan that's like trash.
00:14:22Weren't they expensive?
00:14:24Supposedly multi-million dollar consultants.
00:14:26Expensive doesn't mean useful.
00:14:28You're a copywriter.
00:14:29I guess so.
00:14:30I'm just a poor working stiff.
00:14:32Come to my office tomorrow at 9am.
00:14:34What for?
00:14:35To sit in.
00:14:36Me.
00:14:36You just got my mom speechless for three minutes.
00:14:39I want to see if you can shut up those consultants too.
00:14:43Onesie.
00:14:43What nonsense is this?
00:14:45Mom, don't worry.
00:14:47Compared to marrying him, having him come to a meeting is much less risky.
00:14:51That's logically sound.
00:14:52But it's still a blow to my pride.
00:14:53Miss Jiang, I'm honored.
00:14:55But I really can't make it tomorrow.
00:14:56I still have to slog away at work.
00:14:58Miss Jiang, my boss is notoriously stingy.
00:15:00He'll never approve an unexcused leave.
00:15:02And he'll deduct my attendance bonus.
00:15:04What's your company name?
00:15:11Hey, Cheng.
00:15:12Tomorrow, go support the project.
00:15:14Count it as a business trip.
00:15:15You'll still get paid.
00:15:17No need to clock in.
00:15:18Do a good job.
00:15:19Show them our company's spirit.
00:15:24Did you buy my company?
00:15:25No, it's just that your boss owes our company a final payment.
00:15:29Now he owes two.
00:15:31Two thousand bucks for a blind date stand-in.
00:15:34And I ended up with a client's top strategic meeting.
00:15:37Life is like the subway.
00:15:38You think you've missed your stop, but it drives into the repair shop.
00:15:41But then it drives straight into the repair shop.
00:15:44Onesie, think carefully.
00:15:45I have.
00:15:48Cheng Yan.
00:15:50Miss Jiang, at your service.
00:15:52Don't wear that shirt tomorrow.
00:15:53What's wrong with it?
00:15:54I think it's comfortable.
00:15:56Yes.
00:15:56What's the problem?
00:15:57It makes you look like you're owed wages.
00:15:58What should I wear?
00:16:00Dress like someone who owes other people wages.
00:16:07The clothes are nice.
00:16:09But wearing them makes me feel like a cheap hot dog stuffed into a fancy gift box.
00:16:16Sir, who are you looking for?
00:16:18Jiang Wanshi.
00:16:19Do you have an appointment?
00:16:20I think so.
00:16:21May I have your name, please?
00:16:23Cheng Yan.
00:16:25Mr. Cheng, Miss Jiang is waiting for you on the 26th floor.
00:16:28This look is killer.
00:16:29I look exactly like a delivery guy who snuck into a Fortune 500 shareholders meeting.
00:16:34Mr. Cheng, right?
00:16:35Please follow me.
00:16:36Miss Jiang is in the meeting room.
00:16:37The consulting team has already arrived.
00:16:39Do they know what I'm here for today?
00:16:40No.
00:16:41What about me?
00:16:42You don't know either.
00:16:46Great.
00:16:47Neither side knows the truth.
00:16:48Fair enough.
00:16:50Miss Jiang asked me to give you a message.
00:16:53What message?
00:16:54She said, if you feel nervous, just think about the $100,000 her mom gave you.
00:17:01Not nervous anymore.
00:17:07The moment those eight words came out, I felt like I was listening to a high school principal's
00:17:12pep rally speech.
00:17:13The drowsiness hit me instantly.
00:17:17Here.
00:17:18Here.
00:17:19Miss Jiang, who is this?
00:17:21External consultant.
00:17:26External consultant.
00:17:27I know every single word in that phrase.
00:17:29But put together, it sounds like some kind of international scam.
00:17:33Hello, nice to meet you.
00:17:35I'm from the Blue Future team.
00:17:36Project director Qin Lang.
00:17:38May I ask, consultant Cheng, what well-known top-tier brands have you worked with before?
00:17:44He served my mom yesterday.
00:17:49Miss Jiang, you're trying to get me killed.
00:18:07Good morning, leaders.
00:18:09In the following time, we will show you how HY Group can break free from the shackles of
00:18:13traditional property management and become a super emotional companion portal for young
00:18:16people.
00:18:17When I saw that line of text, my vision went dark.
00:18:19What the hell is this?
00:18:20Some kind of cutting-edge Oracle script.
00:18:23Through precise insight into the sinking market, we attempt to unlock the underlying mindset
00:18:28of users.
00:18:32Every word is familiar, but when he strings them together, it's like he's reciting a sutra
00:18:36to send workers to the afterlife.
00:18:38She's waiting.
00:18:39I know exactly what she's waiting for.
00:18:41She's waiting for me to speak.
00:18:44I'm a low-level copywriter making $1,600 a month before taxes.
00:18:48Why should I chime in when the big guns are going at it?
00:18:51So after our team's three months of day and night hard work and polishing, we suggest this
00:18:55year's core slogan must hit the heart, setters make life warm.
00:18:59I wrote that exact line last month for an electric blanket client.
00:19:03It was a first draft that got chewed out and mercilessly killed.
00:19:24Consultant Cheng, if you have any different insights, feel free to share.
00:19:27Feel free, those two words are the most insidious, most vicious trap in the workplace.
00:19:31If you take it easy, he'll say you're unprofessional not up to standard.
00:19:34If you don't take it easy, he'll say you're too tense and inflexible.
00:19:38Fine.
00:19:39Since you guys want to play, I'll play all the way.
00:19:43Then I'll speak freely.
00:19:45Please, this slogan that costs $600,000?
00:19:48I'd change it to make the client less angry.
00:19:54Dude, you're brave.
00:19:56Make life warmer.
00:19:58Grammatically correct, morally correct, but useless.
00:20:02Consultant Cheng, since you've rejected our core idea, please give a professional explanation,
00:20:06because any brand can use it.
00:20:08Air conditioner sellers can use it.
00:20:09Milk tea sellers can use it.
00:20:11Graveyard sellers?
00:20:12It's even more fitting.
00:20:14Even warmer.
00:20:15Consultant Cheng, brand communication is not a stand-up show.
00:20:18It's not for you to show off and tell jokes here.
00:20:21I know.
00:20:21But a slogan at least has to let people know who you are.
00:20:24Your slogan, aside from proving that the company is desperate to wash off its cold, ruthless capitalist
00:20:28image, it proves nothing.
00:20:29It has no identity, no pain point, no memorability.
00:20:34Good, very good.
00:20:36Since consultant Cheng thinks our three months of refining an idea is just a bunch of nonsense,
00:20:41then tell us what you think we should write.
00:20:44Miss Jiang, I'd like to confirm the company's core business is what?
00:20:47Urban comprehensive services, property management, retail, community retail, smart parking.
00:20:52Target audience?
00:20:53Urban families aged 25 to 45 and young white-collar workers.
00:20:56Their pain points?
00:20:57Our team conducted hundreds of thousands of detailed market surveys.
00:21:00The data clearly shows that users absolutely don't just need cold, basic services.
00:21:04They crave a higher level of life's emotional value.
00:21:06Mr. Cheen, that speech you just recited, all those flowery words, did you actually ask
00:21:11the real users who squeeze into the subway every day?
00:21:14Excel surveys from the office buildings.
00:21:16What do you mean?
00:21:17What I mean is, the real users are the ones who, after working overtime, drag their tired
00:21:22bodies home late at night, the working people returning home, they would never stand in the
00:21:26neighborhood at the gate, grabbing the guard's hand and saying, hey, security guard, I need
00:21:31your property management to provide me with emotional value.
00:21:37The real users will only angrily complain, why the hell is the elevator broken again,
00:21:41the underground parking lot why is it always backed up, the fresh food supermarket downstairs,
00:21:45why did the eggs go up in price again?
00:21:46Water leaking at home, calling property management, why no one answered after three calls.
00:21:52Dear leaders, this is the most real life at the bottom.
00:21:56Life is never a beautifully filtered PPT, with Gaussian blur added, life is the messy trivialities
00:22:01of every day.
00:22:06What the company needs to do is never to play the savior of the world, nor to use hypocritical
00:22:11slogans to make life warmer, what the company needs to do is to actually make the owner's
00:22:15lives have fewer problems.
00:22:18Go on.
00:22:19Youthfulness is not about rounding fonts, changing colors to macaron hues, making short videos
00:22:24look like college club projects, what young people want is not for you to force acting
00:22:27young, it's about not adding to their troubles.
00:22:29So, the real brand slogan of HY group doesn't need any of those vague and confusing adjectives,
00:22:34it can be more straightforward, more raw.
00:22:36For example.
00:22:37HY, less hassle.
00:22:39Mr. Cheng, don't you think this slogan of yours is way too colloquial?
00:22:43It sounds like it's pasted on a utility pole, a drain cleaning ad.
00:22:48Colloquialism has never been a flaw, making users forget who you are that is the fatal flaw.
00:22:54Brands need a sense of class, using this vulgar and lowbrow street language will instantly
00:22:59drag down the entire HY group's hundred billion market cap image.
00:23:03A sense of class is built on your actual service quality and user reputation, not on a few fancy
00:23:07PPTs and those pretentious internet buzzwords made up, cobbled together to create a sense
00:23:11of sophistication. It's not your tool to hide your incompetence behind buzzwords.
00:23:15Consultant Cheng, I admit, your point is extremely inflammatory and aggressive, but running a
00:23:19billion-dollar commercial project isn't about you showing off with clever quips and jokes
00:23:23on stage. Your entire speech has no practical methodology foundation. You're just being a
00:23:28sophist. You guys have a lot of methodologies, of course.
00:23:32So, with six hundred thousand dollars, you came up with a slogan that even an electric blanket
00:23:37seller wouldn't use. President Jiang, I don't know what background this consultant has, but a
00:23:42professional meeting requires basic respect. My heart suddenly skipped a beat, sinking straight
00:23:51down. Oh no, I was too carried away just now. I've gone too far. She is, after all, the executive
00:23:57president of a hundred-billion-dollar group. How could she tolerate an outsider in her own
00:24:01meeting room grinding a multi-million-dollar partner into the ground? She's going to make
00:24:05me apologize. President Jiang, I. The rest of the PPT that wasn't finished. Finish it.
00:24:14President Jiang, what do you mean by this? Didn't you just accuse him of lacking methodology?
00:24:19Let him keep lacking it. President Jiang isn't even pretending anymore. In front of the entire group,
00:24:25she's blatantly backing this unorthodox kid and covering for him. At that moment, all my nervousness
00:24:30and worries disappeared. Human fear has a fixed limit, when that limit is used up, all that's
00:24:35left is the pure desire to finish cursing these idiots and clock out. Everyone, look at this slide,
00:24:40the title says, penetrate the downmarket community scene, but look at the matching image. It's a
00:24:44picture of a foreign neighborhood's outdoor upscale coffee shop. This is just a conceptual diagram
00:24:51used to enhance the visual tone. Two-thirds of HY group's managed projects are in second,
00:24:56and third-tier cities in huge old residential communities. You use a picture from a high-end
00:25:01cafe showing someone drinking coffee to guide selling from a cart at the entrance of an old
00:25:04neighborhood, crepes at the entrance of an old neighborhood. President Jiang, your concept
00:25:08has taken a step too far. Everyone, look at this slide. The strategy says to create social currency
00:25:15for HY's young people. May I ask, President Xi, what exactly is social currency? Social currency
00:25:21is a value symbol that users, after experiencing our ultimate service, are willing to actively share
00:25:26and show off on social media. Would a normal carbon-based life form post on his social media?
00:25:31Thank you HY property for fixing my clogged drain today. If we add interactive elements to the process
00:25:35of fixing the drain, package it with enough ceremony, and give it enough emotional value,
00:25:40he will post, of course he will. He will definitely post on his social media. But his caption
00:25:44will absolutely not be your nonsensical thank you, HY group, for empowering my quality life.
00:25:48What would that be? My toilet finally doesn't stink anymore, damn it. Guys.
00:25:56That smile was fleeting. Less than half a second, but I saw it clearly.
00:26:02Consultant Cheng, you've been using vulgar expressions undermining the brand value.
00:26:05It's not that I'm vulgar. It's that life itself doesn't sit in a PPT.
00:26:11Crap, my mouth was faster than my brain. I laid it on a bit too thick.
00:26:15Director Qin.
00:26:16President Jiang.
00:26:17Rework the proposal.
00:26:18President Jiang, we've been working on this proposal for two months.
00:26:21So?
00:26:22Sticking with it will cost more.
00:26:23If we scrap it, the time cost is high.
00:26:26If you, President Jiang, think this consultant Cheng is more suitable,
00:26:30you can let him do it.
00:26:31Oh man, he's already setting me up.
00:26:33In other words, if you're so good, you do it.
00:26:36I can't. I absolutely can't.
00:26:38Why?
00:26:38I'm cheap.
00:26:41This isn't modesty.
00:26:42A $600,000 project for someone making $1,600 pre-tax.
00:26:46I'm afraid your finance team will have a crisis.
00:26:49What if I give you $600,000?
00:26:51President Jiang, rebranding isn't just a few witty remarks.
00:26:55Consultant Cheng is indeed internet savvy, but project management, user research,
00:26:59strategy development, media execution this whole set of professional methods he may not be able to
00:27:04handle.
00:27:04I admit he's right.
00:27:05I can nitpick, I can write plain English, but a $600,000 project is not something a
00:27:10junior copywriter like me can handle.
00:27:15Chairman Jiang.
00:27:22Dad, what are you doing here?
00:27:24Yesterday, in the private room, the one who kept shutting up, the henpecked father-in-law.
00:27:28No, that was in front of his wife.
00:27:30Today, this is the real chairman of the Jiang group.
00:27:32I heard the meeting was quite lively.
00:27:34I came to take a look.
00:27:35Liu Future, I remember you did a project for New City last year.
00:27:38Yes, Chairman Jiang.
00:27:40The New City project was a huge success.
00:27:42It even won the industry's annual gold award.
00:27:44I don't remember.
00:27:49Young man.
00:27:50You just said, HY for less hassle.
00:27:55I just said it off the top of my head.
00:27:57Say a couple more off the top of your head.
00:27:59Let me hear.
00:28:04Great, my own daughter is just sitting back and watching.
00:28:07She's setting me up to be roasted.
00:28:11HY's problem isn't that users don't know you're high end, it's that users only when something goes wrong think of
00:28:16you.
00:28:17Pay property fees on time.
00:28:19Don't let the elevator break down.
00:28:21Deduct parking fees monthly.
00:28:23Don't lose the parking spot.
00:28:26Users don't need HY to be like a friend who fusses over them.
00:28:29They need HY to be like a reliable adult.
00:28:31So, don't talk to users about warmth or peace of mind.
00:28:34How then?
00:28:35Break down the promises.
00:28:3615-minute response.
00:28:3824-hour resolution.
00:28:39Park with three fewer circles.
00:28:41One less hassle when grocery shopping.
00:28:42What about the slogan?
00:28:44HY keeps trouble outside the door.
00:28:47Chairman Jiang, this slogan is too straightforward.
00:28:50It has absolutely no brand sophistication.
00:28:53I can understand it.
00:28:57Let him try this project.
00:28:59Mr. Jiang, I really can't.
00:29:01You just trashed their two-month plan.
00:29:03That's because they put the PPT up first.
00:29:05You trashed them and ran.
00:29:07I can apologize.
00:29:08Sorry, Director Qin, I was wrong.
00:29:12Too late.
00:29:13I'll give you seven days.
00:29:15Make a presentation-ready plan.
00:29:16I have a job.
00:29:17My boss won't let me go.
00:29:18I'm consultant Cheng.
00:29:19I've already spoken to your boss, and he agreed to the transfer.
00:29:26Cheng, the firm has decided to give you a bigger platform.
00:29:32Problem?
00:29:37I was going to say no.
00:29:39I'm just a copywriter who writes posters for a bubble tea shop.
00:29:41But then I remembered the hundred grand last night and also Qin Lang's words.
00:29:45You're so good.
00:29:46You do it.
00:29:46And people are so pathetic.
00:29:49Seven days isn't enough.
00:29:50How long do you need?
00:29:51Ten days.
00:29:52Reason?
00:29:53Seven days can only make something passable.
00:29:56Ten days can make him lose sleep.
00:30:01Shoo, these are all I need to see.
00:30:04Not those.
00:30:08And these.
00:30:10Together.
00:30:10They're what you need to see.
00:30:14Shoo, if I quit now and go to Blue Future to serve Qin Lang tea, is it too late?
00:30:18Too late.
00:30:19Mr. Jiang has already prepared your temporary badge.
00:30:22Wow, this photo is so ugly.
00:30:24They didn't even add a beauty filter.
00:30:29Done reading the files?
00:30:31Mr. Jiang, I'm a human.
00:30:32Not a shredder.
00:30:34Go to the project site at 2pm.
00:30:36Where?
00:30:37JL mention.
00:30:37What for?
00:30:38To see how users trash us.
00:30:40You're going to get yelled at.
00:30:41Or let the PPT get yelled at.
00:30:52Is this your only pair?
00:30:54I have slippers at home.
00:30:56Buy dress shoes tomorrow.
00:31:00Expensed.
00:31:03You need money?
00:31:04That question is very offensive to someone making $1,600 before tax.
00:31:08Approved.
00:31:10Then can I buy two pairs?
00:31:11To alternate.
00:31:13Don't get too wild.
00:31:14This fountain's water pressure is crazy.
00:31:17Look at the entrance.
00:31:18The maintenance fee is definitely a total rip-off.
00:31:23Stop looking and sit down.
00:31:29Miss Jiang, with that outfit, are we doing a field survey?
00:31:32Not notifying the project manager?
00:31:34Going incognito.
00:31:35If you notify them, you'll only see what they want you to see.
00:31:40What a piece of junk.
00:31:41Over $1,000 a month and this is the door we get.
00:31:45Here we go.
00:31:47Sir, take it easy.
00:31:49Did you get hurt?
00:31:50Who are you?
00:31:51Are you selling investments or insurance?
00:31:53I don't have any money.
00:31:54Sir, I'm just here to do a survey.
00:31:56Survey?
00:31:57I'm busy.
00:31:59Surveying HY property service quality.
00:32:04You've come to the right person, young man.
00:32:06You have no idea.
00:32:07Sir, speak freely.
00:32:09I'll write down every word.
00:32:10The elevator is as slow as a snail.
00:32:12Going down to buy groceries, I could be stuck in there for 10 minutes.
00:32:16The worst part is the security guard.
00:32:18He only cares about cars, not people.
00:32:20I push my bicycle and he interrogates me 800 times.
00:32:23And the landscaping.
00:32:25The grass is taller than me.
00:32:26The mosquitoes could eat you alive.
00:32:34Sir, your lung capacity is wasted if you don't sing tenor.
00:32:37Young man, I've told you all this.
00:32:39Can you really fix things?
00:32:43Sir, I'm the head of the HY group.
00:32:45This old man must be so embarrassed he could dig a three-bedroom with his toes.
00:32:49Even better, let me add a few more.
00:32:51I didn't do justice to a few points.
00:32:54Wow, this old man has activated his second form.
00:32:57Miss Cheong has met her match.
00:32:59Please go ahead.
00:33:01I'm listening.
00:33:04Every time I push the stroller out, it's like weightlifting.
00:33:07Are you HY trying to turn every mom into Schwarzenegger?
00:33:10Who designed the building numbers?
00:33:11Building 8 is next to building 12.
00:33:13I deliver food every day.
00:33:15Now I'm playing Minesweeper.
00:33:16The sewer clogs three times a month.
00:33:18The reimbursement hotline is harder to get through than spring festival train tickets.
00:33:23The parking lot signs are like a maze.
00:33:25You can get in but not out.
00:33:27Customer service replies like archaeology.
00:33:29What they dig up are all old memes.
00:33:31I got yelled at for four hours.
00:33:33You took pretty thorough notes.
00:33:35What do you think?
00:33:35I think it's a big problem.
00:33:37Your previous brand strategy.
00:33:38Was it always about making users fall in love with HY?
00:33:41This is industry standard.
00:33:42Is there a problem with building brand warm?
00:33:45It's a huge problem.
00:33:47Users don't want to love property management.
00:33:49They just don't want to be driven crazy by it.
00:33:53He's got some nerve.
00:33:58So what's the conclusion?
00:34:00The conclusion is, don't do that vague, emotional companionship.
00:34:03Be a problem solver.
00:34:05All communication must revolve around one core word, solve.
00:34:08Since you're so clear on the strategy, what's the slogan?
00:34:11Hold on, I'm still working on it.
00:34:13I don't like waiting.
00:34:15HY's pace doesn't allow delays.
00:34:16I know.
00:34:17But this plan isn't your mom's bank card.
00:34:19You can't just slap it on the table and be done.
00:34:22You're getting bolder.
00:34:24Sorry.
00:34:25Just a metaphor.
00:34:26Purely for the sake of argument.
00:34:28Go on.
00:34:29I said go on.
00:34:30That metaphor was harsh, but vivid.
00:34:33Very efficient.
00:34:34It shows you got the core pain point.
00:34:36This woman is terrifying.
00:34:37She's not not angry.
00:34:38She'll incorporate the offense into her workflow.
00:34:55Another revision.
00:34:57If I have to revise again, I'll jump out this window.
00:35:05Did you die?
00:35:06Almost.
00:35:07Still have the strength to talk.
00:35:09Means you're not dead.
00:35:10Jiang.
00:35:11You're checking on employees at 2 AM.
00:35:13It's really hard not to be touched.
00:35:15Should I send you a banner?
00:35:17You're not an employee.
00:35:21Then what am I?
00:35:22Just a beast of burden?
00:35:24Outsourced risk.
00:35:30Is that any way to compliment someone?
00:35:32No.
00:35:32This page is good.
00:35:34What's good about it?
00:35:36Deep insight or strong writing?
00:35:37If you delete it, the overall plan will be better.
00:35:45Cheng Yan.
00:35:47Why did you become a copywriter?
00:35:51Because I majored in Chinese in college.
00:35:53When I graduated, I went to the job market and realized I couldn't do anything except write.
00:35:57Do you like it?
00:36:00I used to.
00:36:01And now?
00:36:03Now I mainly like getting paid.
00:36:05When the money's right, I like writing anything.
00:36:07I used to like it too.
00:36:09Like what?
00:36:10I liked making products.
00:36:14Making products?
00:36:15Didn't you graduate and come back to take over the company and become CEO right away?
00:36:19No, actually, right after college, for two years, I led a small team and developed a
00:36:24community app.
00:36:25I wanted to combine property, expenses, parking, billing, and neighborhood services all into
00:36:29one.
00:36:30Build something truly useful.
00:36:32And then?
00:36:32Then my dad just shut down my project.
00:36:35He told me, a product can't save bad execution.
00:36:38Good point.
00:36:39But it's annoying.
00:36:40She doesn't look anything like the decisive CEO Jiang.
00:36:43Instead, she's like a girl being beaten down by reality, who's revised her draft countless
00:36:47times but still won't give up.
00:36:49So do you still want to do it?
00:36:52Get the proposal to me by 8am, tomorrow.
00:36:55CEO Jiang, let me ask you a philosophical question.
00:36:58Go ahead.
00:36:58What's the difference between a human and a mule?
00:37:00Mules don't ask that kind of question.
00:37:04Capitalist.
00:37:04Heartless capitalist.
00:37:06Cheng Yan.
00:37:08Another revision?
00:37:09Qin Lang is coming tomorrow too.
00:37:11Why is he coming?
00:37:13Final pitch.
00:37:13The board will decide based on tomorrow's results which proposal to use.
00:37:18Cheng Yan.
00:37:19Don't let me down tomorrow.
00:37:22You never said there would be a pitch.
00:37:25I'm saying it now.
00:37:26So can I back out now?
00:37:27No.
00:37:28Qin Lang came prepared with a full multi-million dollar planning team.
00:37:32And you're on your own.
00:37:34You're wrong.
00:37:35I'm not alone.
00:37:36I have this.
00:37:37Then you'd better drink it up and wake up.
00:37:40Why?
00:37:40Because tomorrow, you're going to take on that 3 million dollar elite team and crush
00:37:44them all by yourself.
00:37:57These shoes, Jiang Wanji had the admin reimburse them.
00:38:00They're really expensive.
00:38:02And they're really hard.
00:38:03Every step I take, the piercing pain reminds me that I don't belong here at all.
00:38:14Hello, chairman.
00:38:15Hello, madam.
00:38:16Holy crap.
00:38:17These pearl tapioca balls got even bigger.
00:38:24I was wondering who it was.
00:38:27Mr. Cheng, you're still here.
00:38:31Hello, ma'am.
00:38:33I'm really sorry, but the 100,000 you promised me as a breakup fee hasn't arrived yet.
00:38:37I didn't have cab fare, so I didn't feel right leaving.
00:38:45Still such a smooth talker.
00:38:47I'd like to see if you'll still be laughing then.
00:38:50Enough chatter.
00:38:51Get ready to start.
00:38:56Dear board members, dear colleagues, after our team's continuous half-month of deep research
00:39:01and refinement, the HY brand remake plan version 2 is officially out.
00:39:05This time, we've abandoned the old lofty concepts.
00:39:08We've decided to bring the brand perspective down to focus on users' real pain points.
00:39:12Because we've found that high-end service is essentially about fewer hassles keeping
00:39:16the trouble out.
00:39:16Shameless.
00:39:17This is clearly a concept that Cheng Yen casually proposed the day before yesterday.
00:39:21He just directly stole it and used it as the main visual.
00:39:24Interesting.
00:39:25This is no longer simple plagiarism.
00:39:28This is theft dressed in an expensive custom suit.
00:39:30Stole my core.
00:39:32And put on his multi-million dollar shell.
00:39:35So the new brand slogan we propose for HY is...
00:39:40It's definitely much better than the last version.
00:39:42Very.
00:39:43Direction is very clear.
00:39:44It concretizes the pain point of trouble.
00:39:46The execution logic loop is also very complete.
00:39:491G, you see.
00:39:50This is the strength of 10 million.
00:39:52Professional team.
00:39:53Turns out professional team after all.
00:39:55Much better than those amateurs who only talk big.
00:40:00My presentation is done.
00:40:03Now it's your turn, consultant Cheng.
00:40:06I'm really looking forward to seeing what surprise your amateur approach will bring us.
00:40:28Consultant Cheng, are you sure this isn't a joke?
00:40:30This is the brand slogan you came up with?
00:40:32No hassle?
00:40:33Aren't these three words too crude?
00:40:36Too uncultured?
00:40:37I'm very sure.
00:40:38Everyone saw it.
00:40:39This kind of street-level argument vocabulary.
00:40:41How can it represent HY's tens of billions brand image?
00:40:44Consultant Cheng, give me a reason.
00:40:46The reason is simple.
00:40:47Because our users talk like this every day.
00:40:52Elevator's been broken for three days.
00:40:54Property management?
00:40:55You dead?
00:40:56The garage exit is designed like a driving test.
00:40:59Every morning, it's a traffic nightmare.
00:41:01Property group sends good morning daily.
00:41:02But real issues?
00:41:03They all play dead.
00:41:05HY, can you not make our lives difficult anymore?
00:41:12Everyone.
00:41:13Take a good look.
00:41:14This is not the fancy survey report you paid $600,000 for.
00:41:18This is what HY faces every day.
00:41:20The reasons real users are cursing us out.
00:41:26Director Cheen's proposal just now was called Less Trouble.
00:41:28It sounds really gentle, can't find a flaw, and very safe.
00:41:32What?
00:41:33Any problem?
00:41:34A huge problem.
00:41:36It sounds like an empty promise, but not a sincere apology.
00:41:40HY has grown to where it is today, has never been short of service capability, but you are
00:41:44too far from the users.
00:41:45You elites, every day, sit comfortably in an air-conditioned room on the 26th floor,
00:41:50drinking coffee, discussing what lifestyle is.
00:41:52But what about your users?
00:41:53They are standing in a leaking underground garage.
00:41:55Like headless chickens, can't find the exit.
00:42:02For HY's future brand rebuilding, only do these three things.
00:42:05First, don't cause trouble.
00:42:06On all marketing materials, openly acknowledge users' most genuine frustrations.
00:42:10Stop pretending everyone is living a perfect life.
00:42:13When criticized, stand up and take it.
00:42:15Second, no beating around the bush.
00:42:16Turn all vague service promises into digital metrics.
00:42:19Repair requests must be answered within 10 minutes.
00:42:21Complaints must be handled within 24 hours.
00:42:23Parking entry and exit must not exceed 3 minutes.
00:42:26Third, don't pretend to know.
00:42:27Cut out those community events that are only for leaders to cut ribbons and take photos.
00:42:32Use all the budget for used goods exchange, nighttime emergency repairs, temporary childcare
00:42:37for moms, and escort services for empty nest seniors.
00:42:50In this whole room, only she truly understood what I want to do.
00:42:58Ridiculous, Cheng Yang, you need to know your place.
00:43:00This is already operational rectification territory, not a branding plan at all.
00:43:04You're right.
00:43:05The job of brand communications is to build an image, not responsible for specific operations.
00:43:10You're completely overstepping.
00:43:11So that's why your team's plans are a pile of garbage.
00:43:15You can use fancy slogans to trick consumers in wants, but if your service is crap, they'll
00:43:20point their fingers at you and curse you for life.
00:43:22Consultant Cheng, what's your language?
00:43:24This is the HY board meeting.
00:43:26I've been very careful.
00:43:27Last night I stayed up until 3am, revising this proposal.
00:43:30The words I had in mind were a lot dirtier than what I'm saying.
00:43:34Young man.
00:43:35Do you think, with this plan, how long till it takes effect?
00:43:38Within three months, let the residents see real, tangible changes.
00:43:42Within six months, turn the reputation around.
00:43:44Cost?
00:43:45Very expensive.
00:43:46More than hiring a team of PPT people who only talk about warmth.
00:43:49You know the cost is high.
00:43:50Why should HY pay for your crazy experiment?
00:43:53Because the money spent will save us from complaints.
00:43:55The brand reputation it saves is also HY's asset.
00:43:59No matter how well written the plan, it's useless.
00:44:02It involves hundreds of communities, affecting so many people's interests.
00:44:06You, an outside consultant, how can you guarantee that this plan can actually be implemented?
00:44:11Ma'am, you're right.
00:44:13I can't guarantee it.
00:44:14Then why are you standing here talking all this nonsense?
00:44:18I really can't guarantee it will work.
00:44:21President Jiang can.
00:44:32Because in these ten days, she went with me to seven grassroots projects.
00:44:36Got yelled at by 23 property owners and suppliers.
00:44:39Jotted down four full notebooks of issues.
00:44:41A president who only wants to put on a show with PPTs and coast through the days.
00:44:45Would never be sitting at a street stall at 2 AM, revising the reimbursement process line by line.
00:44:50This plan is not something I made up by myself.
00:44:52It was her.
00:44:53She took me to the front line to hear it.
00:44:59Wanzi!
00:45:00What do you say about this?
00:45:08I'll handle the execution.
00:45:11Do you even know what you're saying?
00:45:14Do you understand what this means?
00:45:16Yes.
00:45:17If the plan fails to be implemented, it will trigger a chain reaction.
00:45:21The board will immediately initiate an accountability process.
00:45:24Then no one can protect you.
00:45:25Let them.
00:45:27What if it's a complete failure?
00:45:29How will Hai cover the losses?
00:45:32I'll cover it.
00:45:37Enough.
00:45:41Director Chin, the blue future team's proposal, HY will not adopt it.
00:45:45Miss Jiang, won't you reconsider?
00:45:47I think a decision made in such a short time is too hasty.
00:45:50Your team can keep your opinions.
00:45:51What about the final payment for our project?
00:45:54Assistant Su will coordinate with you, to settle the costs for the work you've already completed,
00:45:59not a penny short.
00:46:09Congratulations, Cheng.
00:46:11You stepped on me to get ahead.
00:46:13You really think, because you beat my PPT, a layman like you, can actually pull off this
00:46:18mess of a project?
00:46:18I never thought that.
00:46:20Then, why did you take it?
00:46:21Not afraid of getting stuck with it?
00:46:23Because she took it.
00:46:30Notify all project managers, assemble in the small meeting room in 5 minutes.
00:46:34Make copies of the pilot community's documents, have them all ready.
00:46:37Got it.
00:46:40On the day the project launched, I truly experienced for the first time what people mean when they
00:46:44say Jiang Wanji's terrifying execution ability.
00:46:51At 9.10, I already cut three of your approval processes that are a complete waste of time.
00:46:56At 9.20, the pilot tasks for seven communities have been assigned.
00:47:00Now explain to me these two reports of passing the buck.
00:47:03Jiang, Miss Jiang.
00:47:05This matter does have some objective reasons, and the staff have their own difficulties.
00:47:09You talk about objective reasons, but the truth is you personally just don't want to
00:47:13do it.
00:47:13Miss Jiang, please calm down.
00:47:15This really requires multi-department coordination, we're afraid if something goes wrong, we can't
00:47:20bear the responsibility.
00:47:21You say it needs coordination, but really you just want me to step in and take the blame
00:47:25for you.
00:47:26No, no, that's not what we meant, it's just that some users don't understand our difficulties.
00:47:30You say users don't understand.
00:47:33Users pay their property fees to get service, not to understand your difficulties.
00:47:37In the end, my hand was actually trembling.
00:47:40Not because I was scared, but because I had a strong urge to applaud her.
00:47:46Director Jiang, Consultant Cheng, here's the afternoon schedule.
00:47:50We need to go to the studio at 3pm to shoot the first teaser video.
00:47:54Who's shooting the video?
00:47:59You.
00:48:01Me.
00:48:02You wrote the proposal.
00:48:03So you should be on camera.
00:48:05No, no, absolutely not.
00:48:09Why?
00:48:10I have severe camera phobia.
00:48:12As soon as the red light comes on, I stutter.
00:48:14Yesterday, in front of over 20 executives, you tore into that 3 million dollar consulting
00:48:18team and gave them hell.
00:48:19I didn't see any phobia in you.
00:48:21That was yelling.
00:48:22Yelling is about presence, filming a video is about acting.
00:48:25They're two different things.
00:48:27Consultant Cheng, don't be nervous.
00:48:29The content is really simple.
00:48:31Just talk about the HY no irritation plan from our proposal.
00:48:34I can't, I really can't.
00:48:36As soon as I see that dark, hollow lens, my mouth just runs away from home, completely
00:48:40out of control.
00:48:42Stop talking nonsense.
00:48:43Just try one take.
00:48:49All departments ready.
00:48:503, 2, 1, action.
00:48:53Hello everyone, I'm...
00:48:58Cut.
00:48:59Let's do it again.
00:49:003, 2, 1.
00:49:02Hello everyone, I'm from HY group.
00:49:04Uh.
00:49:05Third time, get ready.
00:49:07Ready, go.
00:49:08Hello everyone, I'm Cheng.
00:49:16Yesterday in the meeting room, you were so talkative.
00:49:19Where did that commanding presence go?
00:49:21Yesterday there was no camera shoved in my face.
00:49:23It's simple.
00:49:24Don't think of it as a camera.
00:49:25Think of it as Qin Lang's face.
00:49:27Don't you hate all his fake, empty talk?
00:49:30Then yell at him.
00:49:30Not really.
00:49:31This lens is way better looking than Qin Lang.
00:49:34I can't yell at it.
00:49:35Then think of it as my mom.
00:49:42All right, start the camera.
00:49:44Hi everyone, I'm Cheng Yang.
00:49:47Nice, you look amazing.
00:49:49HY used to love making big promises to homeowners.
00:49:52Temperature.
00:49:54Companionship.
00:49:55High-end lifestyle.
00:49:57To be honest, it's pretty annoying.
00:50:02So this time, we're not doing any of that fluff.
00:50:05No more sweet nonsense.
00:50:07Let's just honestly do three small things.
00:50:11First, don't disappear on repairs.
00:50:13Second, don't get lost in the parking lot.
00:50:15Third, don't pass the buck on complaints.
00:50:20If you can't do these three, don't brag about being a high-end property.
00:50:31That's a wrap.
00:50:34HY finally knows they're annoying.
00:50:36That don't disappear on repairs line really hit home for me.
00:50:39Who the hell is this guy?
00:50:40The way he talks, like the property owes him a million six.
00:50:43Not like they actually owe him.
00:50:45I like this attitude.
00:50:46All property managers, take note.
00:50:48Stop the sweet talk and the vanishing act.
00:50:50Director Jiang, consultant Cheng.
00:50:52The video's only been out for a few hours, and the comments section has exploded.
00:50:56Public opinion is starting to turn around.
00:50:58Just to show.
00:50:59All talk about not causing trouble.
00:51:01The intercom downstairs has been broken for three days and no one fixed it.
00:51:04First, the basement's a maze.
00:51:06Fix the signs before you brag.
00:51:09Shu Tang, contact the project manager now.
00:51:11The intercom issue tonight must be resolved, no matter how long it takes.
00:51:15The basement signage, all replaced by tomorrow morning.
00:51:18Understood.
00:51:18I've already notified them.
00:51:20Overnight fix.
00:51:21I looked at her.
00:51:22For the first time, I truly felt that being yelled at by users could actually become a
00:51:26terrifying productivity.
00:51:28How do you people do your job?
00:51:30That streetlight has been out for three months.
00:51:33You're right, sir.
00:51:34I'll write it down right away.
00:51:36I'll fix it today.
00:51:37Good attitude, young man.
00:51:39Here, take this.
00:51:40Thank you, ma'am.
00:51:41Young man, are you the new property manager?
00:51:44You're always here.
00:51:47I'm just a helper.
00:51:50Cheng Yan, you're famous.
00:51:52Famous?
00:51:53Hardly.
00:51:53I'm about to be drowned in the homeowner's complaints.
00:51:58What the hell is this?
00:52:00It's going viral in the owner's group.
00:52:01Now you're the mascot of HY.
00:52:03I'm a copywriter, and I've never been so humiliated in my whole life.
00:52:08Jiang, if you've seen that meme, pretend you didn't see it.
00:52:11Too late.
00:52:12I already saved it.
00:52:13What are you saving that for?
00:52:15Blackmail material.
00:52:16Blackmail?
00:52:16If you don't behave, I'll post it in the company group chat.
00:52:20Jiang, you'll never find a partner like that.
00:52:23Concerned?
00:52:25Not at all.
00:52:27Not in the slightest.
00:52:30My mom wants you to come for dinner tonight.
00:52:33Why?
00:52:34No idea.
00:52:35Last time she gave me $100,000.
00:52:38This time she's not planning to give me a million to get lost.
00:52:41In your dreams.
00:52:42Then, I'm not going.
00:52:43What if my life's in danger?
00:52:44She said if you don't go, she'll come find you at the office.
00:52:48What time?
00:52:50Scared of her.
00:52:52Not afraid.
00:52:53I just respect the combat power of Pearl Necklace.
00:52:577pm, I'll take you there.
00:53:02Even the rich eat cucumber salad.
00:53:04I'm kinda touched.
00:53:05It feels like a working man's stomach and a capitalist's stomach have made peace in this
00:53:09moment.
00:53:10Wait.
00:53:11Pearl Necklace didn't wear a pearl necklace today.
00:53:18I heard you've been busy lately.
00:53:19Not bad.
00:53:20Did you do the Heng Yue project?
00:53:22Jiang did it.
00:53:23I was just messing things up.
00:53:26At least you have some self-awareness.
00:53:29As long as I eat fast enough, problems can't catch up.
00:53:31At someone else's dinner table, survival is the top priority.
00:53:35Cheng Ye.
00:53:38Mom.
00:53:39I'm asking him.
00:53:40What do you think of 1G?
00:53:48Jiang is great.
00:53:49How so?
00:53:50Strong workability.
00:53:51Strong execution.
00:53:52Emotionally stable.
00:53:54She's a once-in-a-century great boss.
00:53:55Sound like an employee evaluation.
00:53:57Let me rephrase, then.
00:54:02She's like a very expensive knife.
00:54:06Sharp.
00:54:07Beautiful.
00:54:08Hard to handle.
00:54:11But when real trouble hits, she can cut through any mess or old rules.
00:54:18You sure know how to talk.
00:54:21I mean it.
00:54:26My ears are red.
00:54:28Maybe it's the lights at home just too warm.
00:54:32Here comes the private talk.
00:54:34Round 2.
00:54:35The bank card.
00:54:36Is the humiliation starting?
00:54:38Auntie, I really can't take it now.
00:54:41Who said I'm giving you money?
00:54:46This is 1Z's childhood photo.
00:54:48She's been like this since she was little.
00:54:50She has to be the best at everything.
00:54:52She broke her arm.
00:54:53Had a fever of 102.
00:54:55Still went to compete.
00:54:57Her dad thinks she's like him.
00:54:58Able to handle it.
00:55:00I don't think so.
00:55:02She just doesn't say she's in pain.
00:55:07I was against you before because I thought you weren't worthy.
00:55:10That judgment was accurate.
00:55:13Now I still think you're not worthy.
00:55:15Also accurate.
00:55:16But you can make her laugh.
00:55:22I haven't seen her like that in a long time.
00:55:26Cheng Yan.
00:55:28Don't lie to her.
00:55:30That sentence carries more weight than the 500,000.
00:55:33Auntie.
00:55:34I'm not in a position to promise much.
00:55:36But I can guarantee I can't fool her.
00:55:43True.
00:55:44Mom, are you done talking?
00:55:47Come in.
00:55:52What did you show him?
00:55:56You're embarrassing past.
00:55:58Mom.
00:55:58Rest assured, Miss Jiang.
00:56:00I have a strong work ethic.
00:56:01I'll keep it confidential.
00:56:03Give it to me.
00:56:04No.
00:56:07Cheng Yan.
00:56:08This is what Auntie gave me.
00:56:10Top secret client material.
00:56:12Are you sure?
00:56:15Miss Jiang.
00:56:16Grabbing the material is unfair competition.
00:56:18I'll compete now.
00:56:22No magic tricks.
00:56:23Just did a lot of things that should have been done.
00:56:25Fixed the door lock.
00:56:27Changed the signs.
00:56:28Rewrote the customer service scripts.
00:56:30The PM goes live every week to get roasted.
00:56:32At first, they looked like they were being tortured.
00:56:35Then they realized the complaints actually reduced.
00:56:37They even started fighting for live stream slots.
00:56:40Humans are really adaptable.
00:56:41Cheng Yan.
00:56:43Why sit so far away?
00:56:45I'm afraid I'll mess up the company's feng shui.
00:56:50Feng Shui is fine.
00:56:52You played a key role in this project.
00:56:54Credit goes to Miss Jiang's leadership.
00:56:57Finally, you talk like a person.
00:57:00Cheng Yan.
00:57:02Interested in officially joining HY?
00:57:19Chairman Jiang.
00:57:21I'd like to think about it.
00:57:23Someone actually turned down the chairman of HY in public.
00:57:27Good.
00:57:34Deputy director of brand content, $120,000 a year, plus project bonuses.
00:57:41I used to think Zhou Yi's $2,000 matchmaking fee was the biggest windfall of my life.
00:57:46Now there's $120,000 on the table.
00:57:48My first reaction is not happiness, it's fear.
00:57:51Too little?
00:57:52Not at all.
00:57:53Then why the look like you're about to call the cops?
00:57:57Director Jiang.
00:57:58I'm scared I'll mess up.
00:57:59You've done it before.
00:58:01That was luck.
00:58:03Luck can't make you work overtime 30 days straight.
00:58:07Director Jiang.
00:58:08I've never led a team before.
00:58:10You can learn.
00:58:10My education isn't impressive.
00:58:13HY isn't a school.
00:58:15I've got a big mouth sometimes.
00:58:20I know that.
00:58:23Why do you trust me?
00:58:31Because you see a problem and you speak up.
00:58:34That's rare.
00:58:37Sign or not?
00:58:40Director Jiang.
00:58:41After I sign, can I still leave on time?
00:58:44Depends.
00:58:45Can I talk back?
00:58:45Depends on what?
00:58:46Can I expense shares?
00:58:50Chung Yang.
00:58:51Here.
00:58:51Ask again, and I'll change your salary to 116k.
00:58:54Sign wear.
00:58:57This time I'm sure it's definitely not the lights.
00:59:04Xiao Cheng, you're really not coming back.
00:59:06Boss, I'm going to a bigger stage.
00:59:07Then help me delay the final payment.
00:59:12Still, the same familiar world.
00:59:25Thanks, Director Jiang.
00:59:27What for?
00:59:28Thanks for not making me pay for the wine that night.
00:59:31You remember?
00:59:32I have a great memory for things I can't afford to lose.
00:59:35That wine was Zhou Yi's.
00:59:38I made him pay for it.
00:59:41Director Jiang.
00:59:43Brilliant.
00:59:44Thanks for driving me home.
00:59:45See you tomorrow then.
00:59:52Anything else?
00:59:55My mom asked me.
00:59:57Are you chasing me?
01:00:03Your mom's 100k.
01:00:04The fear of being controlled is back.
01:00:06What did auntie say?
01:00:07She said you don't seem like it.
01:00:09I don't think so either.
01:00:10Really not.
01:00:11Auntie really knows people.
01:00:12So I'm asking you.
01:00:14Are you chasing me or not?
01:00:16Chase Jiang Wanqi.
01:00:17Aye.
01:00:18Her mom bought him off with half a million.
01:00:20The stand-in matchmaking guy.
01:00:21Aye.
01:00:23You just signed a 120,000 contract in the meeting and you weren't this scared.
01:00:27That's different.
01:00:29How is it different?
01:00:30The contract is clear.
01:00:31There's no manual for chasing you.
01:00:35She smiled.
01:00:36She really smiled.
01:00:37Brighter than the moon tonight.
01:00:39Then I'll write you one.
01:00:40What?
01:00:41Target.
01:00:41Jiang Wanqi.
01:00:43Project duration.
01:00:44TBD.
01:00:45Phase 1 task.
01:00:46Dinner with me tomorrow at 7.
01:00:51Director Jiang.
01:00:53Does this project have a budget?
01:00:55I mean, I can pay for it myself.
01:00:58Don't be late tomorrow.
01:01:10Anything else?
01:01:12Jiang Wanqi.
01:01:14Tomorrow at 7.
01:01:16I'll pick you up.
01:01:18Wear dress shoes.
01:01:22Can I expense it?
01:01:24Depends on your performance.
