Thirty Something (Wo De San Shi Ding Lu / 我的三十定律)

Before my 30th birthday,

I was just a salesperson for medical supplies.

After my 30th birthday,

I became a salesperson for an insurance brokerage.

The one who found me a shelter from the crisis was You Zi Jie.

He became my boss and my neighbor.

It's the same sales job. The difference is

I have to tolerate the tremendous pressure of a sales quota, and humiliation.

I don't know if this is the turning point of my life,

or the start of another round of chaos.

My Time - by Patrick Brasca

Thirty Something

It went down the wrong way.

Have you always kept that with you?

Uh. Yes, I have.

I was...

I thought that if I kept it with me,

it would bring me luck,

just like a lucky charm.

Then you wish that it could bring you good luck,

and let you get an insurance contract.

You wish Ms. Chen's case could successfully gather more information.

Then this lucky charm should...

also bless Assistant Manager You, since this is his case.

I only use it to bless you,

proving that your viewpoint is accurate.

Thanks.

Don't worry. I won't take too much of your time.

I'm telling you. An average person can listen for 15 minutes,

but his ability to focus is only 30 seconds. I am on good terms with you. I can give you a discount. Just give me 1 minute.

I'm talking about He Mei Liang's daily task of 3 actions including visit, picture taking and reporting, okay?

I'm telling you that our office, in principle, does not recommend doing this with friends and family members.

Oh, based on your brother's personality, if not for me protecting her,

she would have been berated horribly.

That's the way it should be though, because she is my friend.

Exactly. That's right. From the first moment she came to the office,

I knew she was a true talent and would become a Blue Magpie broker.

And you know what? Because your brother recognized her talent,

he strongly recommended her for the CEO training.

That's why she was not eliminated at the interview.

My brother recommended Mei Liang?

That's too good.

Right, right. If it were me, I would really support her, because she is your buddy.

I want to say though that he just got divorced and may still be in the period of recovery.

There are some rumors about him at the office.

What rumors?

The key point is that it seems unusual.

They come in and leave together. They may be with each other, stay in the same room, spend the night together, or may be ready to get married.

In the same room... it sounds pretty good.

His second love.

Not that. I'm asking you to tell your brother to keep it low.

We should have brought all the information.

Eh, is my outfit okay?

This is the first meeting.

Do I need to remove this? My leg is still hurting.

It's alright. - Will it create a bad impression?

Where are we?

I have never been here before.

Are you ready?

Are you not going up with me?

No.

So petty.

Hey, this is the first time you are visiting the client.

The chance for not getting a deal is 99%,

but if you won't even go up there, then you wouldn't even have the remaining 1% chance.

However, I'm a girl.

Is it appropriate to go into a stranger's house?

You have to face your own client.

If you don't even dare to go up,

you will never grow. Do you know that?

Okay. - I'll wait for you here.

Just nagging, really.

Okay.

I'm going up.

Aren't you going to encourage me?

Fighting! - Fighting!

Louder.

Fighting.

Thanks.

Hello, Mr. Han. How are you?

Why is there no answer?

That's right. They all went out to eat.

Then, can I trouble you to give this to Assistant Manager Hong? Loan me a pen.

Here.

Sales Department. How are you?

They are not here right now.

Please wait a moment.

She said that she wants to talk to someone from the senior management.

Give it to me.

Hello, my name is Pan. I am the chief of the Legal Department.

I need to speak to your senior manager.

I heard that Assistant Manager You Zi Jie's moral conduct is questionable.

I don't want my broker to be someone who is disloyal and irresponsible to his family.

What is your name?

Yes, Director Liu. I am not sure where you heard that rumor regarding Assistant Manager You,

but I will relay your concern to the respective manager.

Here, Mr. Han. This is your plan.

I have completed it for you,

based on the status of your family.

Your health conditions,

plus your children and wife, I have included them all.

This is very thorough. Do you want to review it?

Let's go over there. It's brighter there. We can sit on the sofa.

Okay? - That's fine.

Is your wife not here? It would be better if she also participated in this.

She went over to my mother-in-law's house.

With the kids? - Yes. All together.

So, it's just you and me today.

That's right, Mr. Han.

I remember your child is 6 years old, right? - That's right.

Right, right. At his age, I know you and your wife could

worry about the educational fund for the child,

but I'm telling you that you don't need to worry.

My company has developed a plan for you.

I wrote it down and you can take a look.

No problem. Let me look for it. I think it's in the back.

Don't you think the air is stuffy and hot in here?

I don't mind if you want to turn on the air conditioner.

Do you want to take off your jacket?

Take off the jacket. - Eh... Mr. Han, excuse me.

I'm not hot. - Just take off the jacket.

Eh, Mr. Han, excuse me.

I'm not hot. Don't be so courteous.

If you want to turn on the air conditioning, you can do that. - Just take off your jacket.

Mr. Han, please don't be like this.

What are you doing? What are you doing? Don't touch me.

Mr. Han, someone is coming.

Your... your wife is coming.

Help me. Help me!

Mei Liang. Mei Liang.

Hey, Mei Liang!

Don't touch me. Why are you touching me?

I told you to come with me, but you didn't.

I told you I was afraid. I'm a girl.

He Mei Liang, this may not be the last time you encounter something like this.

Huh?

Didn't I say that I would wait for you downstairs? I also told you before we left

that I would call you after half an hour.

If everything is going well and the other party seems fine, you can answer me

"I am in a meeting." Do you remember that?

But if you feel the other party is questionable, use it as an excuse to leave.

Of course, if you do not take the call, I will rush up there. Wasn't that the case?

It's easy for you to say that. There is no danger downstairs.

How could I pick up the call a moment ago?

I twisted my ankle and was sexually assaulted.

I'm already so unlucky. Who could remember anything about a phone call?

He Mei Liang, this is also a type of sales training.

How to remove yourself from danger.

We had a colleague in our department who encountered the same thing.

So I've always been really careful.

This is one of the exceptions female sales associates may run into.

However, you did well.

Really? - Mhm.

I know there are a few female salespersons

who use their looks as an advantage to get insurance contracts,

but you are very brave. You know how to protect yourself.

This is how you protect the integrity of our profession.

He Mei Liang, congratulations on passing this challenge.

I also thought that I was really brave.

He Mei Liang. You won't be starting because you're amazing.

You will prove that you are amazing from the start.

I'm already amazing.

That's right. You are already amazing.

Assistant Manager.

Then can I ask you

what it felt like when you got your first contract?

When you get your first insurance contract, I will tell you then.

Okay, I'll treat you to a cup of coffee. Let's go.

Stop crying. - Do you have any tissue?

How can a girl not keep any tissue?

Assistant Manager, you walk too fast. I have a twisted ankle.

Then take your time.

Chief Pan, hello.

May I borrow you for a moment?

No need to borrow. It's fine. I have to prepare some information.

You talk. You go ahead and talk.

I know Director Liu is your important client.

I received her call today and she asked to replace you,

because of your personal moral conduct and lack of loyalty to the family. Something like that.

I don't know where did she hear that kind of rumor.

I've asked her to reconsider.

Begging for mercy from my client won't help.

I'll find time to explain her myself.

I'm not begging for you.

Your personal affairs are also none of my business,

but if the company is affected by your personal affairs,
