Episode 3 recap: Dong Dongen signed a contract with Lou Yuan.
Dong Dongen was surprised to see alcohol available here, as they didn't expect the company to provide it. When Lou Yuan saw this, he advised Dong Dongen not to drink during work and to be careful not to vomit on himself again. Dong Dongen was stunned, realizing that Lou Yuan had recognized them. At the end of the workday, Lou Yuan noticed Dong Dongen still cleaning and expressed appreciation for their hard work, offering them an opportunity to come to the company for a meeting the next day at 10:00 a.m. Dong Dongen was delighted and readily agreed.
The next day, Dong Dongen rushed to the meeting, and Lou Yuan happened to be at the entrance, stating that Dong Dongen was already two minutes late as it was 10:02. Dong Dongen felt they weren't late and checked their phone, only to find that their time was ten minutes behind Lou Yuan's phone. Dong Dongen quickly claimed it was an issue with their own phone, but Zhu Li came over and mentioned that Lou Yuan's watch was always set ten minutes fast, which wasn't ideal.
Lou Yuan explained that everyone present was well-known advertising companies in the industry, and the purpose of calling them together was to introduce a competitive bidding process. Dong Dongen was surprised to hear about the bidding process, and Lou Yuan mentioned that there would be a fee for participating. Dong Dongen was left speechless. While initially hesitant, the prospect of money seemed to silence any objections.
Ke Mao Xu suggested that if they successfully secured this project, he would take everyone on a trip to the Maldives, where they would reimburse them for the items they had wanted to buy. This announcement energized everyone, and they rallied, singing heroic songs to boost morale and started working hard. Dong Dongen asked Ke Mao Xu if he was serious about taking them to the Maldives, expressing doubt about having that much money. Ke Mao Xu replied that even an empty promise is still a promise, and everyone was motivated now, so why not aim high.
Dong Dong En showed the completed plan to Lou Yuan, but he didn't think highly of it. When Dong Dong En came out, she overheard colleagues discussing that Lou Yuan had already selected Jiaxun Company. Dong Dong En was furious. She couldn't believe that Lou Yuan had already made a decision and was still causing trouble for them.
Wang Zi Jian approached Lou Yuan and asked if there was a possibility of reconciliation between him and Cao Ya. Wang Zi Jian felt that they were constantly seeing each other since they worked together. Lou Yuan stated that it was not possible between them, especially since their previous relationship only lasted for three days and was experimental in nature. Dong Dong En went back and told everyone about it, and they all felt frustrated. Dong Dong En believed they should make further changes, but in the end, everyone agreed that it was the final version and there would be no more changes.
Dong Dong En received a message from Lou Yuan's mother and suddenly had an idea. She visited Lou Yuan's mother and revealed the situation about the advertising plan, mentioning that Lou Yuan had already chosen Jiaxun Company, but their offer was very high. Lou Yuan's mother, concerned about money, called Lou Yuan and scolded him. Lou Yuan argued that other companies were capturing a significant market share through advertising, and they couldn't let a subpar company take over the market. Lou Yuan's mother found his reasoning valid and urged him to ensure the success of the advertising campaign.
After coming out, Lou Yuan told Dong Dong En to think about how to do the job well and not always focus on reporting others. Dong Dong En mentioned that it was Lou Yuan who called her for a chat. They all agreed that since they were targeting university students, they should consider what the students wanted to see. Dong Dong En and the team quickly continued making revisions.
Zhu Li informed Lou Yuan that Dong Dong En wanted to deliver the new plan, but there would be a power outage at 9 o'clock due to building maintenance. Zhu Li asked if Dong Dong En should still come. Lou Yuan instructed her to tell Dong Dong En to wait downstairs. However, the power outage happened earlier at 8:30, and Lou Yuan was scared. He walked out while singing a brave song to boost his courage. Dong Dong En entered to find Lou Yuan looking terrified, and she assured him that she would never mention this incident to anyone.
Wang Zi Jian and Lou Yuan were drinking, and Lou Yuan got irritated, resulting in half of his performance bonus being deducted.
