Created in China Episode 9 Recap
> Created in China Recap
Due to the feud between her brother and Liu Jun, Lin Chuan got drunk. When she returned home, she encountered Liu Jun, and the atmosphere in the elevator was particularly awkward. Liu Jun suppressed the discomfort in his heart and helped Lin Chuan back to her residence. Lin Chuan, using her drunken state, asked Liu Jun about what he had done, held his hand, and invited him for another drink.
However, facing this situation, Liu Jun still tried his best to remain calm. Lin Chuan acutely sensed that he still harbored resentment towards her brother and promised to do her best to persuade Lin Yue. The next morning, Liu Jun accompanied his father Liu Shitang to inspect the old factory workshop. The mottled machine tools carried the memories of two generations. This factory, which sustained the family's livelihood, embodied half of Liu Shitang's life's work.
Facing the wave of industrial upgrading, the father and son had to make a difficult choice. Liu Jun made a pledge to his father, vowing to take the enterprise to new heights. To find a site for the new factory, Liu Jun had been busy for days without success. His old classmate Wang Xi from the Investment Promotion Bureau strongly recommended the land in Kujiang District from three aspects: policy support, location advantage, and industrial infrastructure.
After Liu Jun adopted the suggestion, the new factory's environmental assessment and safety assessment were successively approved. Upon hearing the news, Lin Chuan worried about the placement of the old factory's workers. She proactively contacted Liu Jun to say she had found a suitable party to take over.
On the day of the meeting, Lin Chuan, dressed elaborately, revealed important information in the car: Liang Sishen had a close relationship with Lin Yue, and her husband was Song Yunhui, the helmsman of Donghai Group. As they were talking, Liu Jun knocked over a bicycle. As he got out of the car to check, a group of people suddenly swarmed over and punched and kicked Liu Jun.
Lin Chuan got out of the car to intervene, recognized one of the individuals, but was kicked to the ground. In the end, the two were isolated and helpless, and Liu Jun's left little finger was tragically severed by a sharp object. On the way to the hospital, Liu Jun endured the intense pain and instructed Lin Chuan to contact his close friend Qian Hongming. Holding the severed finger, Lin Chuan fought back tears and comforted Liu Jun.
After Liu Jun entered the emergency room, the police arrived in a hurry. Lin Chuan, thinking that the events of the night were related to her brother, deliberately concealed the identity characteristics of the involved individuals. Qian Hongming rushed to the hospital upon hearing the news. After briefly explaining the situation, Lin Chuan hurried back home and went straight to her brother Lin Yue's place to demand an explanation. Lin Yue was panicked upon seeing his sister covered in blood.
When he learned that Liu Jun had been beaten, he adamantly denied it was his doing and stated that he had already let go of his prejudice against Liu Jun. But Xia Haiping also suspected her husband and kept a close watch. Lin Chuan was disheartened and declared before leaving that she would no longer conceal the truth from the police. After overnight surgery, Liu Jun's severed finger was successfully replanted.
The police questioned Lin Chuan again, stating that the assailants had a Jiangxi accent. Lin Chuan was also from Jiangxi. Lin Chuan evaded key details on the grounds of being overly frightened. In contrast, Lin Yue's subordinate was uneasy and had no choice but to confess that it was his own decision to send people to make Liu Jun bleed. Liu Jun was furious upon hearing this. In the middle of the night, Qian Hongming returned home.
Thinking that his friend Ma Yue's wife was a reporter for Donghai Business News, he provided her with material for a report. As expected, the incident was published in the next day's newspaper. After seeing the content, Lin Yue asked his subordinate for their opinion. The subordinate advised him not to intervene at this time to avoid further complications, but Lin Chuan demanded that he visit the hospital. Liu Shitang stayed by the hospital bed all night without sleep.
Looking at his son, who was covered in injuries, his heart ached as if being cut by a knife. After dawn, Qian Hongming personally came to take over. Liu Shitang didn't know how to communicate with Qian Hongming, so he simply handed a packet of money to Qian Hongying, asking her to pass it to her younger brother to express his gratitude. Liu Jun woke up and saw the content published in the newspaper.
He didn't understand why something that could be solved by law had to be deliberately made into a big sensation. Qian Hongming told Liu Jun that public opinion supervision was originally the media's responsibility. There was no problem with them increasing their chances of winning within the framework of the law.
Moreover, Officer Gu, who was in charge of the case, also revealed that there were many surveillance cameras at the scene of the incident, making it not difficult to apprehend the culprits. However, having gone through this incident, Liu Jun did not want to upset his father anymore and decided to let it go completely. Lin Yue specifically went to the hospital to visit Liu Jun.
He admitted that it was his subordinate who had acted without authorization and had now surrendered to the police. To express his apology, he proposed acquiring Qianjin Factory at a high price, taking in and settling the workers, and paying the sum in one lump sum. Just then, Aunt Fu came to the hospital to deliver food. Seeing Lin Yue in the ward, she quickly hid.
