Still Lala (我是杜拉拉 / Wo Shi Du La La)

Episode 6

Da Wei Ge, you don't have to see me out.

Teacher treats me so well, making you take me home.

It's close.

Also, thanks for helping me move. I owe you a meal.

You want to treat me again?

Okay, then you need to prepare more money.

Our Lala can really eat.

Oh Lala Jie is also coming?

Then I really need to put more money in my wallet

or it won't be enough for her appetite.

I'm just kidding. Right, there's a restaurant in front of our community.

Lala really loves eating there and it's not expensive.

What do you like to eat?

I like to eat...

Whatever she likes, I like.

You are so nice to Lala Jie.

Not really. She's also nice to me.

Ok. I'll go back and rest now.

You should rest too. - Good night.

Bye bye.

Mr. Li please count this.

You are so generous. You are willing to spend so much money to rent my place.

Actually, near here, similar rental places

are also available.

I like this place. - Good, if you're satisfied with it.

Ok, you should rest early.

Call me if something comes up.

Bye. - Bye.

Not bad.

I finally understand how it feels like to be an unwelcome outsider while the others are having a good time talking and frolicking.

My mother-in-law and that Qian Qian

are just talking to each other and having fun outside.

I'm a completely unnecessary outsider.

Why is she still lingering around? How did she become your neighbor?

She must be doing it on purpose.

I also don't know why. Every time I see her,

I don't know what's wrong I feel weird.

But it's probably not her fault.

She had known my mother-in-law and my husband ten plus years before me.

You are not being sensitive. It's your intuition.

A woman's intuition is very accurate,

and can sense all attacks and invasions before they happen.

How did she invade me?

I always feel like...

When I see her, I feel uneasy.

Do you think I'm being too selfish?

How could you be too selfish? Have you forgotten your nickname in college was 'not selfish at all'?

Believe in your feelings. Stay far away from her.

I want to, but everyday my mother-in-law

is saying Qian Qian this Qian Qian that.

She invites her over all the time.

I can't say

"Mom I'm your baby Qian Qian's competitor.

We are brutally fighting for the HR manager position.

I really don't want to see her. My whole body feels uneasy when I smell her perfume."

I can't say it like that, it's not appropriate.

This is hard. You worked so hard to convince your mother-in-law.

I'll give you a suggestion.

You should find an excuse and send your mother-in-law away.

That'll take care of everything.

You think I haven't thought of that?

I think this thing will have to wait until we get married.

Wait, it has to be after we have our wedding ceremony.

Then it will work. Okay, I can't talk to you anymore.

I need to go find some food.

All this junk food is making my stomach feel bad.

Why does the whole fridge smell like curry?

Look, what time is it already?

She lives just upstairs. Did you really need to take this long to take her home?

Um...

What is this?

Honey, you are so handsome! Thanks!

Du Lala.

Lala Jie.

You have to sign this document.

Surfing Weibo.

You are surfing Weibo during work hours.

I don't have the time to surf Weibo. I'm looking for information.

What information?

Our company is looking for an advertisement director born in the 90s. This person is elusive. I can't find him.

In the end, I found out how awesome he is. He won the advertisement award 3 years in a row. He's good, right?

Really? - Luckily, Wang Wei was resourceful and managed to find his Facebook.

From his Facebook, I found some clues and thus, it led me to his Weibo.

I must get to know him

and get him to do the directing job for us.

But it's hard to know the interest

of someone born in the 90s, right?

Yes.

I found a problem. He has a special interest.

Selfies.

Selfies? - Look at his Weibo.

Everyday, he uploads over 10 plus selfies.

He took one under the sun in the morning, one when he was drinking coffee, one when he went to the bar,

one when he went to the supermarket to buy tissues, one when he was meeting his friend. It's all selfies, and it's always him.

He takes so many selfies daily.

Oh right, he's born in the 90s. He's just trying to increase his sense of presence.

It's his lair. I intend to go meet him after work today.

Come in. Who is it?

Manager Huang. - Kathy, what's up?

Have a seat.

I

have completed the recruitment process and have sent it to you through email. Please check it.

To my email? Okay.

Let me take a look. - I added in a few new ideas this time. What do you think?

Okay, looking at it right now.

Excellent.

You have ideas, plans, and direction.

You made our recruitment process more flexible.

I like it a lot. I have to answer a call.

Hello?

Who is this?

What?

Send me the address, okay?

Okay.

Yes!

Manager Huang, you have news of Lucas?

Kathy, you are so smart. Yes, it's Lucas.

My friend knows him and now he's decided to meet with us.

That's great.

What do you intend to do next?

I think it's better that I settle this matter myself.

I'll go and meet him.

I will go with you. Two is better than one.

Okay, let's go.

Mr. Lucas, we are from SH Company. This is our General Manager of the Asia Pacific region, Mr. Huang.

I'm the HR Manager of SH, Kathy.

Right.

Hello, I'm Huang Guo Dong.

One look at this place and I can see that it is the place

where creativity is created.

No wonder you are good at directing advertisements.

You won the advertisement award 3 years in a row. This is not easy. You are really good.

That's right. - 2.

I believe many companies have already contacted you,

but SH is the best in the industry.

Also, we sincerely want to collaborate with you.

Our customer brands include jewelry,

clothes, cars, and furniture, and so forth.

We also have food and drinks, which are all within the top 500 best brands.

Therefore, you shouldn't worry that your partners will lower your standard.

Of course,

of course, if we don't have the brand you want, we can also try to get the brands you want.

Yes. - What do you think?

No, no, no...

Other than this, we will also open an advertisement space in Shanghai.

You can use the space to lay out your plans and designs. I believe this is what every producer wants.

250, 250, 233.

Okay, Mr. Lucas,

I will give you an offer that will not be offered by other companies.

Anything that is related to Mr. Lucas, including your work,

will be handled by your team.

Are you done?

Please this way...

Eight, right, eight...

Eight... eight... (Sounds similar to 'bye' in Chinese)

Let's go.

Seems like we wasted our time here.

Let's go.

Perfect!

Hello?

Don't move!

Five, four, one.

Director Lucas?

Nice to meet you. I'm part of SH, Du Lala. We talked on the phone. Do you remember?

Right. Right. Seven. Seven. Right.

The one that got called auntie by you, that's me Du Lala.

It's like this. SH really admires your talent.

We really want to work with you, and request for you to direct an advertisement.

We understand that you have high expectations for your work,

so we will broaden any rigid standards to fit you.

Shh.

Fine, let's not talk about this nonsense. Let's consider budget.

The budget part, we are willing to give you lots of leeway.

Whether you want specific equipment,

lighting or actors... - Shh.

You wish to talk, right?

If you are able to complete this, then I will talk with you.

Director Lucas, before testing, I have this habit.

I have to go poop.

Can I use your restroom?

Sure. It's that way.

Here's tissue paper.

Thank you.

A talented boy's brain can malfunction sometimes.

How come he doesn't even know this question?

Is it this question?

Yes, this question.

Let's see.

Here you go.

So...

You won.

Tell me.

These kids who are born in the 90s,
