Created in China Episode 11 Recap
> Created in China Recap
Qian Hongming and Old Gao were both classmates and colleagues, but in just eight years, the difference between them was like heaven and earth, leaving him with mixed feelings. However, Qian Hongming was very smart and immediately thought of Old Gao using his position for convenience to trade letters of credit. Old Gao gladly admitted it, saying that Qian Hongming was outstanding during school and was also quite capable after graduation, fully capable of earning more money.
Although Qian Hongming deeply understood this principle, he knew that wealth is sought in danger, and for the peace of his family, he really did not dare to take the risk. After the business trip, Qian Hongming returned home and brought his wife Shen Jiali a camera.
When Shen Jiali heard that it was generously given by Old Gao, she couldn't help but yearn for the high salaries and benefits of the special economic zone, and casually mentioned hoping the whole family would move there to make a living. Qian Hongming did not directly state the source of Old Gao's money, but simply smiled it off.
On the other hand, Liu Shitang mortgaged the shop behind Liu Jun's back, but the appraisal price was not high enough to solve the problem at all, so he had no choice but to ask a friend for help. It was precisely for this reason that Liu Shitang took his son to visit private capital. Manager Li was willing to provide a loan below ten million, but the high interest made it difficult for the factory to bear.
Liu Jun implored Manager Li to lower the interest for stable long-term cooperation and revenue. Manager Li stated that he specialized in business overlooked by banks and had different fundraising channels, insisting on high-interest loans. Liu Jun had nowhere to turn and repeatedly encountered setbacks. Just as he was feeling disheartened, Qian Hongming came to visit with lotus seed soup personally cooked by Shen Jiali, and learned about his financial chain collapse.
Liu Jun told Qian Hongming that there were only two ways now: either falsify accounts to get a loan, or get a windfall. The former went against his conscience, and the latter was entirely up to luck. Neither was a path he could or wanted to take. That night, Qian Hongming went home and told his wife that he would be very busy in the coming days.
The next day, he proactively applied for resignation from the company, but the leadership valued his talent and decided to let him lead the setup of the bonded area branch. Qian Hongming was flattered upon hearing this. He then invited Liu Jun to his office, revealed his identity as the manager of the bonded area, and offered to use his position for convenience to raise three million funds for him, only requiring repayment upon the expiration of the credit period.
Hearing Qian Hongming's idea, Liu Jun was overjoyed. Both of them were immersed in busyness, and their careers gradually improved. In the blink of an eye, four months had passed, and Liu Jun repaid the loan on schedule. Early in the morning, Qian Hongming rushed to work, but the company car broke down, making him so angry that he severely reprimanded the repair shop. Liu Jun's factory had considerable efficiency, repaying three million in just four months.
Qian Hongming, meanwhile, revealed his desire to buy an imported car and even planned to upgrade to a luxury house for his wife and daughter. Luo Qing suddenly proposed to resign from Liu Jun because his family forced him to take the civil servant exam. Although Liu Jun felt a little regretful, he approved the resignation, stating that he would welcome him back anytime. Afterwards, Liu Jun took Qian Hongming to meet a forum netizen.
Qian Hongming gossiped about Liu Jun's important romantic matters, but ever since Yu Shanshan declined his invitation last time, Liu Jun had actively given up pursuing her, mistakenly believing that she was with Lu Huadong. As soon as the words fell, Liu Jun saw Lu Huadong, shocked that the other person was the forum netizen. As soon as they met, Liu Jun realized the misunderstanding. Afterwards, Lu Huadong took them to a car dealership.
Qian Hongming took a liking to a car that was expensive but had a well-known brand, making Liu Jun marvel at how quickly Qian Hongming was making money from his job. Liu Jun learned from Lu Huadong that Yu Shanshan had sworn not to date before she turned thirty, realized that Yu Shanshan was still single, and immediately contacted her to see a movie. Yu Shanshan gladly agreed.
The next day, Liu Jun and Yu Shanshan watched a movie at the cinema, looking like a couple deeply in love. At the same time, a leak occurred at the factory. Worker Cao Fei was dozing at his post. When he heard the equipment alarm sound, he still slowly went to check, ignoring the warning "Do not enter while equipment is running," and tragically died in an accident due to violating operating procedures.
