Our Glamorous Time (Ni He Wo De Qing Cheng Shi Guang / 你和我的倾城时光)

Opening Sequence

The subsidiary company Aida in fully under my charge right now.

There is an open position. Not sure if you are interested.

President Li, you are the new broom sweeps clean the company. There is no one that doesn't know you in entire Lin Hai.

But as far as I know, the condition of Wenda isn't so positive.

quite apart from a subsidiary company like Aida.

Now there is an opportunity. A big project just came up for the entire Lin Hai clothing industry.

Ming Sheng Group is calling for bid of uniform manufacture for their A Belt and A Road Initiative project.

If Aida can win this deal, it's going to change things for Aida.

Wenda will come back to life also.

Therefore I hope you join Aida asap to be in charge of the design.

Uniforms. The cloth wore by staffs?

No. It's special uniform for rescue.

That's like fire-fighting anti-chemical special uniforms.

The project is interesting. But for special uniforms

I'm not very good at designing those.

No, you are very good at it. I've learned your background.

Your thesis design was trench coats. And after graduation,

your work was bought by a British company. It made very good sales.

Lin Qian.

You investigated me.

Since we are going to collaborate. Of course I'm going to know about you.

Although I don't know about clothing, but I know the original idea of trench coat are the British military uniforms in WWII.

And trench coats and uniforms, they have similar requirements of water proof, breathable etc.

So I hope you can join the company asap.

Even though they have similarities. I can't take your job offer this easily

-You are too bossy. -A national level project like this, you can't get it from else where.

In other companies, they won't give you such big project as soon as you enter.

You want me to be responsible for the entire project.

Yes you are the lead designer of this project.

Lin Qian, I'm giving you an opportunity. I think you can give Aida a opportunity too.

If we win this deal, your title will be director of the design department.

Three thousand dollars monthly salary plus bonus and benefits.

Excuse me I have to take this call.

Hello who's this?

Qian, do you know who I am?

Ning Wei Kai?

Oh you remember me.

Of course I remember you senior fellow.

-Is this your number? -Yeah.

I heard you are back in Lin Hai.

Yeah I've been back for a while.

I'm good. How's it going? Have you been busy?

Recently...it's alright not too busy.

Then do you have time to meet up this evening?

Tonight?

Honest it's that I'm now working at Xin Bao Rui.

And I saw you came for a job interview in our company.

And maybe our HR made some mistakes.

I called you as soon as I could wanting to talk about work.

After all, you are so talented, must be very popular in the job market.

I'm worried that if I called too late someone else will hire you.

Okay. Then let's meet up tonight.

Great I'll send you the address after I make reservations.

Bye bye.

How about this President Li.

Give me some time to let me think about it okay?

Okay. I hope you can think about my invitation seriously

Okay we will be in touch.

Okay.

My name is Hu Xiao Ting, graduate from fashion design major at Ning Hai University.

I want to interview for the position of Designer at your company.

As a designer, what's your research on the fabrics?

Chair Gu, you are so handsome.

I think my lowest monthly salary should be five thousand dollars.

All the interviewee materials are here.

Not going so well?

The key of this project is the fabrics. Designers must know it very well.

But all the interviewees don't really know about it.

How's it going on your end.

Need to wait.

Look at this.

Do you recognize her?

Is this dress nice?

Fabric. All those clothes are made of the old fabrics from Wends's warehouse.

Now you said it I can see.

Isn't this the moisac print?

Good boy, one of this can sold for two hundred dolalrs.

There were all trash in the old Wenda warehouse.

But for someone who knows the fabrics well, they are real money.

So we have to find someone like that.

Continue the interview tomorrow.

Where are you going?

Is he gonna die if he says one more word?

Senior fellow.

-Qian. -Long time no see.

Yeah, long time no see. Come

have a seat.

-You really haven't change much. -So haven't you.

Time flies. Now I feel all the memories from college

all came back.

Do you remember when we were in college, just two of us who were so broke.

-Every weekend all the others -would go to parties.

Yeah, they went to parties or road trips.

Do you remember the award we won together? At the compotation at school?

Of course. I still have that trophy.

I remember we were so happy that we got the award and wanted to celebrate with a drink.

But we couldn't afford any bottle of wine from any store.

-So broke. -Yeah but now it's different.

Now no matter what we wanna drink, we can buy it.

This is the Torbreck Les Amis from 2005.

Try it out to see if you like it.

I'm so ashamed that till now I can buy you an expensive drink.

I don't know wine that well.

I feel they are all the same.

This is what's so adorable about you.

Cheers.

Cheers.

-The air is so fresh. -Yeah what a day.

After so long that we could have a reunion. It's fantastic.

But Qian,

what I talked to you about over the phone

I hope you can consider it.

You mean Xin Bao Rui?

Yeah. I really hope you can come to work here.

Yeah, Aida's president Li

came to me too. He wants me to join Aida.

That isn't strange. You're so talented.

I believe Li Zhi Cheng has seen that.

But Xiao(little) Qian you have to know.

Wenda is like a small boat on the verge of being sunk by a larger boat. Right now, everyone

are jumping overboard to save themselves. If you enter Aida right now,

wouldn't be fair to your own artistic talents.

I'll say again, Li Zhicheng is just a soldier.

He doesn't have the least experience or knowledge of the fashion industry.

What I just said seems like I underestimated my rival.

However, right now I'm not speaking to you in my role as President of Xin Bao Rui.

But as a senior brother that sincerely wants to help you.

I know.

Actually, I've been working hard at Xin Bao Rui these past few years. Even though I have the position of President,

I've always believed that Xin Bao Rui's existence as a family-owned enterprise brings its own problems.

So, at Xin Bao Rui, I need my own people

to prove that together in Xin Bao Rui

We need true experts in the field.

Senior brother, you have already proved it in the past. You're very talented.

Then I really have to thank you.

Actually do you know? These past few years I have always been thinking.

When we started out, we worked together and won the prize back then

So I hoped we could collaborate again one day.

Senior brother never begged someone.

So today...

Senior brother, I understand.

Okay, I agree to come work at Xin Bao Rui.

So, what kind of salary would you expect to receive?

I hope that it will be greater than my previous job by 50 percent.

Alright. We understand your situation. If we have any news.

We will immediately contact you.

What's with you today. You look very apprehensive.

No need for an more interviews. The person just now isn't so bad.

Let's talk about his salary.

Longhai Avenue.

A designer lives here?

Excuse me, is there anyone?

Yes!

-Hello, who are you looking for? -Hello, I'm looking for designer Lin Qian.

She isn't here.

What's the matter? You can say it to me.

Are you here to buy clothes? But I have to apologize.

We don't sell men's clothes only women clothes.

No. Let me introduce myself first.

I am Aida Group's vice president, Gu Yan Zhi.

Aida Group again?

Didn't your president Li came here already ones? How come you are here too?

Yes. Our President Li isn't too eloquent.

So I came here to negotiate again with designer Lin Qian.

I want her to join our Aida Group.

Join your Aida Group? You're too late. Right now, she's on her way to sign a contract with Xin Bao Rui.

- She's going to sign with Xin Bao Rui? - Yes.

-Hello? -Hello,

Where are you?

I am in a traffic jam on the road.

-I'm telling you. This Aida Group has let someone come to look for you again. -Huh?

Who? Li Zhi Cheng?

No. He's also handsome but not as handsome as president Li.

President Li, Lin Qian is on her way to sign a contract with Xin Bao Rui.

I think there's still a chance. Do you want to fight for her?

They very sincere about wanting you to work at Aida. It's the second time they've come to see you.

- Maybe you should think about it again. - You shoulldn't waver.

Her assistant says she's supposed to sign the contract with Xin Bao Rui at ten-thirty.

Right now it's 9 o'clock. You still have 1 hour left.

Give me Lin Qian's location.

President Li, it is a white taxi with the license plate number A42Z01.

Right now, she's at the first intersection with Zhong Xin Road.

Driver, how long will it take?

She's supposed to sign the contract with Xin Bao Rui at ten-thirty. You need to hurry.

I was just in Lin Qian's design studio. Besides the huge amount of women's clothing,

She also has a pair of battle fatigues.

Those battle fatigues are very similar to your special forces' uniforms.

Aren't you going to Xin Bao Rui for an interview? Why are you still sleeping?

-You're right. -Aren't you afraid of being late?

-Driver, are we still in a traffic jam? -This road is like this. I can't do anything about it.

Let's go. Ride with me, I will bring you.

President Gu, can I ask you, are you always with president Li?

In theory, yes.

I'll give you these shrimp and scallops. They're really tasty.

Could you tell President Li for me...

I'm one of his fans; his most loyal fan.

No problem. I also have to thank you for helping me with this favor.

No problem, but don't forget what you promised! If Xiao(Little) Qian Qian really goes to joins Aida Group,

you must give her the best treatment, okay?
