I Want To Be Boss (Ai拼才会赢)

Manpower shortage

has always been a global issue.

With the rapid advancement of AI robot technology,

the government will also lead Singapore towards the new era of AI robots.

There are many jobs in Singapore

with no suitable candidates, which is stressful.

Now, there will be

a solution at once.

Damn.

Foreign workers may lose their jobs.

It's not just them, but everyone will.

A robot salesperson approached me the other day.

He kept praising the product.

It is a good deal. I'm seriously considering it.

The price now is quite high.

We are still looking and budgeting for it.

You can say that because you're a boss. People like us are in trouble.

Then, be a boss.

-Right. -I want to.

Will you hire me as a boss?

I'll resign immediately.

Are you mad? Everyone's buying robots now.

Why would they hire humans?

As a logistics boss, would you buy robots?

I will, but I will wait to buy it.

I'll buy one when a pirated version comes out. It'll be cheaper.

-Budget. -Budget.

A pirated version? What if it short-circuits?

What if it goes crazy and kills your family?

No way.

It won't happen.

I have many skills.

I'm especially skilled in cooking.

I used to help my dad in the kitchen when we lived in the village.

People queued all the way to Jurong.

Where do you live?

Jurong.

I still cook even now.

I cook for my family. If I don't, they don't eat.

-Wow. -Sir, you have so many restaurants.

Just let me be the head chef at any of them.

Uncle Ong, our restaurants currently don't have vacancies for head chefs.

Is there any other roles you'd like to try?

-Boss. -Wow.

Boss...

-What are your qualifications? -None.

Many people looked down on me since I was a kid.

My dream is to be a manager.

You just need to give me a table, a chair, and a laptop.

Just let me manage all the employees. That's all.

You? Manage everyone?

Okay. I think there's a role that suits you.

-Do you want to consult... -Consultant?

Consultant. Okay, that works for me.

I have so many years of experience.

No matter what questions they ask, I can answer all of them.

Okay.

Congratulations, Uncle Ong.

There's a change in role.

Thank you.

GUARD OF THE DOOR

This is wrong.

It's "consultant" not "guard of the door."

It's a typo.

Okay, sorry.

Here.

Here you go.

Thank you.

GUARD OF THE ENTRANCE

This is wrong again.

What is wrong? Didn't I correct it?

I know, but the character should be inside, not outside.

If it's inside, it's "consultant," but if it's outside, it's "guard of the door."

It's a huge difference.

I'm just following orders, Uncle Ong.

If you have any questions, you can ask the boss.

Do you think I don't dare? I held him when he was a baby.

Fuck.

Has your husband retired?

He is so young, yet he has such a high position.

Getting the retirement funds with his CPF will benefit both of you.

You can live peacefully now.

What matters most is controlling their retirement funds.

When men have money, they act differently.

You'd better be careful.

Gosh, my husband is useless.

He's been a supervisor for 40 years, but I don't even know what he supervises.

I hope he can get his retirement funds soon

so that I can travel abroad.

Are you in charge of all his money?

He initially refused.

So I kept arguing with him until he gave me his salary.

But he's not happy about it.

That's how it should be.

Money talks, so we need money to talk.

-Right. -Right.

We're like an old married couple. We're always arguing.

Neither of us wants to give in.

It's been tough for the kids too.

The government has been encouraging every family to get a humanoid robot

to help improve family and marital ties.

Humans invented robots...

But now, humans are the ones being controlled by robots?

-It's ironic. -I agree.

I don't think I'll be comfortable with a robot at home.

You have to get used to it.

Society moves forward every day. We have to keep up with the times.

Have you tried the game?

Can you teach me again?

This way, I can teach my husband

and share common topics instead of arguing all day.

-Right. -I'll teach you a fun game.

You can earn money and get to know new friends.

You might even meet some handsome guys.

Look. Look at this handsome guy.

Right.

Uncle Ong.

Didn't you say you wanted a table, a chair, and a laptop

so you could manage everyone?

That's exactly what a guard does.

You manage everyone going in and out of the company.

That was not what I meant.

If your dad was here,

he would know exactly what I want.

Uncle Ong, actually, the company is now pivoting

toward the government's new direction.

AI robots and automation.

Automation? I've got that.

Every day, I send you "Good morning," "good afternoon," "good night."

I send it to you, automatically!

Thank you, but please stop sending me these old-fashioned greeting photos.

What do you mean? I'm just showing that I care.

I send them so your mornings start off well.

Yes. I will still delete it after you send it to me.

Previously, you said that you want to be a boss?

Yes.

So? Is there an opportunity?

-I've already planned it out for you. -Really?

Okay. This is your retirement fund. There's $150,000 in it.

-$150,000? -Yes.

That much?

Find a business partner

and start a company together where you are the boss.

-Can I do that? -Yes.

Remember, you should become a CEO just like me.

-Do you think I really can? -Yes.

It's my birthday today,

yet you're asking me to retire.

That's a bit insensitive.

Not considerate of you?

Look at how well we treat you.

Okay.

Other than your retirement fund, we also bought this watch for you.

My dad specifically asked me to get this for you.

It's very rare.

Thank you for your contributions to the company over the past 40 years.

Thank you.

How is it? Do you like it?

Yes.

How much is it?

It's $28,000.

It's about $180,000 altogether.

$180,000?

That much?

Okay then, I'll retire.

I have a small request.

-What is it? -Change it to cash.

Sure. No problem.

You received a retirement payout?

My condolences, everyone.

Steven.

Your boss treats you very well.

He even gifted you a watch for your retirement.

Are you still not happy?

I feel happy and unhappy at the same time.

-Why are you unhappy? -Unhappy because I lost my job.

My family will look down on me.

-I want curry chicken. -We're not selling it today.

You said the retirement fund is $150,000?

Is that supposed to cover you for life?

Add your CPF to it and it's no small sum.

It's here.

Look.

You...

Are you crazy? You took $150,000 worth of cash out?

I've never seen this much money in my life.

Look at me now. Do I look rich?

Yes.

You brought out this much cash with so many people around.

What if someone robs you?

It's not others I'm worried about. It's my wife.

Anyway, can you help me come up with an idea? Okay?

Okay. Let me think.

Pig trotter.

We're also not selling it today.

Let me tell you, open a bank account and deposit all your money in it.

No matter how scary your wife is, she won't rob a bank.

You're right.

Chicken wings.

We're also not selling that today.
