A Better Life Episode 7 Recap
> A Better Life Recap
Hu Manli was fired by the company and also penalized by the association, prohibiting her from working in the insurance industry for two years. Hu Manli was unwilling to give up like this. She had worked her way up in the insurance industry for twenty years, accumulating a large number of high-quality clients. She successively sought cooperation with Wang Chunlu and insurance agents, and even had her best friend Zhong Ning pretend to be a client to test them.
They all wanted to ditch Hu Manli and contact the clients independently. Hu Manli finally chose Xue Xiaozhou. Xue Xiaozhou had voluntarily resigned to uphold justice for her, and they had a common enemy - Qiu Lisu. Hu Manli handed over all the experience and clients she had compiled over the past twenty years to Xue Xiaozhou, wanting to use Xue Xiaozhou's professional qualifications to conduct business and give him a share of the profits.
Xue Xiaozhou disagreed; he wanted to develop clients himself. He visited Hu Manli's client list one by one. Hu Manli had called her father, Hu Degong, in advance to pretend to be a client and reject Xue Xiaozhou, hoping to make Xue Xiaozhou retreat in the face of difficulty. Hu Degong instructed Xue Xiaozhou to do housework and go downstairs to buy rice and flour. Xue Xiaozhou did everything he was asked.
Hu Degong then casually chose the increasing whole life insurance product and arranged to go to the company to sign the contract with Xue Xiaozhou at ten o'clock the next morning. Xue Xiaozhou finally made a sale within the deadline given by Tang Ling, and his colleagues congratulated him. Xue Xiaozhou came to Tang Ling as agreed to ask for the gift.
Tang Ling wanted to wait until he signed the contract with the client before discussing it further, and she also inquired in detail about the client's address and information. This product was not suitable for people over sixty years old, and Yi Chang had visited that community several times for prospecting. Most residents in the community were elderly, and they avoided insurance products like the plague.
Tang Ling felt that it was impossible for Xue Xiaozhou to persuade them so smoothly. Early the next morning, Xue Xiaozhou arrived at the company early. He organized all the documents and even specially bought fruit. Xue Xiaozhou waited until ten o'clock, but Hu Degong didn't show up. He had no choice but to call Hu Degong, but the call went unanswered.
Tang Ling tore up the gift application form in front of him, and other colleagues made fun of him. Xue Xiaozhou rushed to Hu Degong's house to find him. He knocked for a long time but no one opened the door. He learned from a neighbor that Hu Degong had left early in the morning, so Xue Xiaozhou sat on the stairs to wait. Hu Degong tiptoed home and was caught red-handed by Xue Xiaozhou.
Xue Xiaozhou desperately questioned him about the reason for breaking the appointment. Hu Degong couldn't tell the truth, so he lied that he didn't know Xue Xiaozhou and then hid in his house, not daring to show his face. Xue Xiaozhou waited downstairs for a whole day. He was starving, so Hu Degong had to call Hu Manli for help.
Hu Manli had only told Hu Degong to reject Xue Xiaozhou, but she didn't expect him to take the pretense seriously. Hu Manli hurried over and pulled Xue Xiaozhou to eat. She encouraged Xue Xiaozhou not to be discouraged and briefly recounted the various difficulties she encountered when she first started working. Hu Manli firmly believed that Xue Xiaozhou could become an excellent insurance agent. After careful consideration, Xue Xiaozhou decided to cooperate with Hu Manli.
Hu Manli drafted a cooperation agreement and kept saying she had consulted a lawyer to verify it. She would use Xue Xiaozhou's professional qualifications to get orders and then give Xue Xiaozhou a ten percent commission. Xue Xiaozhou pointed out sharply that this agreement was illegal. He took out the contract he had drafted. Hu Manli would be responsible for introducing clients, and he would approach the clients to promote the products.
After the deal was done, they would split the profits 20-80. Hu Manli was worried that he couldn't handle the clients and insisted on getting eighty percent herself. The two of them negotiated down to a 30-70 split. Hu Manli was eager to make money, so she signed the contract with him on the spot. Hu Manli took Xue Xiaozhou to choose discounted brand-name clothes.
Xue Xiaozhou didn't like the green suit she chose and turned around and left in a huff; he wanted to choose his own clothes. The female sales assistant at the clothing store, You Qi, fell in love with Xue Xiaozhou at first sight and asked Hu Manli to set them up. Hu Manli tried her best to bring them together, but Xue Xiaozhou clearly stated that he already had a girlfriend.
Hu Manli mistakenly thought Xue Xiaozhou was still hung up on Qiu Lisu. Xue Xiaozhou dug out the suit his father had given him when he was eighteen. He utterly hated his cheating father and refused to wear the suit he gave him. His mother even slapped him for this. Xue Xiaozhou was forced to wear that suit to please his father. Xue Xiaozhou still felt resentful when thinking of the past.
He put the suit back in the case in a huff. Hu Manli took Xue Xiaozhou to a book club meeting to see Wei Yuanxiang. Xue Xiaozhou was still wearing his usual clothes. Hu Manli was very displeased. Xue Xiaozhou threatened to leave in a huff, so Hu Manli had to give up. She asked Xue Xiaozhou to call Qiu Lisu. Qiu Lisu was the person in charge of organizing this book club meeting, and entry required an invitation.
Xue Xiaozhou adamantly refused to contact Qiu Lisu. Hu Manli had no choice but to call Wang Xue, Ding Zhiyuan's graduate student. Wang Xue treated her as her mentor's wife. Hu Manli kept saying that she had specially come to apologize to Wang Xue, and took the opportunity to suggest that Wang Xue take Xue Xiaozhou to the book club meeting and introduce him to Wei Yuanxiang, specifically mentioning that Xue Xiaozhou was a relative of Qiu Lisu.
Wang Xue took Xue Xiaozhou to the book club and directly took him to see Wei Yuanxiang. Xue Xiaozhou wanted to add Wei Yuanxiang on WeChat. Wei Yuanxiang made various excuses to avoid it. Wang Xue casually mentioned that Xue Xiaozhou was a relative of Qiu Lisu.
