City of the City 城中之城 Episode 1

Lujiazui Financial City, known as the "Manhattan of the East", is located in the core area of ​​Shanghai and is a dream place for many young people living in Shanghai. Tao Wuji and his girlfriend Tian Xiaohui work together to build a career. He has been working at the Binjiang Branch of Shenzhen Mao Bank for two years and is still an inconspicuous grassroots teller. He only hopes that one day he can make a big splash in the financial industry and marry his girlfriend as soon as possible.

At this mobilization meeting for appointment, Tao Wuji met Vice President Zhao Hui, whom he had heard about for a long time. Colleague Cheng Jiayuan whispered from the side that Shenmao Bank had won the right to take the lead in bank bidding for the Fukang Building construction project, but Zhao Hui had always kept a low profile and did not publicize it.

Tao Wuji listened very carefully to Zhao Hui's speech on the stage, remembering every word of the other party. No matter where they were, they could not forget the responsibilities of bankers, because finance is the blood of the real economy, and banks What people need to do is to allocate funds and other financial resources where they are needed, to thousands of industries and households. At the end, Zhao Hui reminded everyone with humor that bankers should not only create value for customers, but they should not forget that banks need to make profits, and more importantly, they need to create value for shareholders.

After the meeting, President Dai Qiye talked privately with Zhao Hui. Jiaxiang Holding Group hoped to use bank loans to rescue the market, but after Zhao Hui read the guarantee application, he looked embarrassed and said that he could not sign it. He also advised Dai Qiye not to get involved to avoid getting into trouble.

However, Dai Qiye had his own ideas. He believes that there are nine good things and one bad thing in running a bank, and it should try to provide customers with more operating space while complying with regulations. Jiaxiang Group has tried its best, but international capital is still suppressing its stock price. These capitals not only pursue profits, but also attempt to encroach on Jiaxiang's market share and national industries. Therefore, Dai Qiye decided to help. No matter what the result was, he would not be ashamed.

As soon as Zhao Hui left, Dai Qiye called a mysterious person. Tao Wuji originally wanted to find Dai Qiye, who had once praised him, hoping to use his connections to get into the property department, but he failed to meet Dai Qiye and the two passed by him. Similarly, Tian Xiaohui failed to pass the interview, and both of them were not very lucky.

Zhao Hui saw on TV that the stock price of Jiaxiang Industrial continued to fall, and immediately called Dai Qiye to remind him that this time the risk was very high. He is willing to help because Dai Qiye is not only his master, but also a selfless person. Dai Qiye was very moved and told him not to worry. His friend Cao Jiaxiang was trying to increase the stock price.

Because Jiaxiang Industrial was supported by Dai Qiye and was closely linked to Cao Jiaxiang's interests. So Miao Che analyzed the situation for Zhao Hui and reminded him that if Dai Qiye made a new request, he must dissuade him. Zhao Hui called Dai Qiye again and was concerned about his situation. Dai Qiye seemed to be in a good mood and talked about the "five dangers that will come" mentioned before. That night, while listening to Jiaxiang Industrial's pessimistic report, Dai Qiye was distracted and had a car accident and rolled off the highway bridge.

The next day, when Xie Zhiyuan accompanied his wife Shen Jing to kindergarten, he called Dai Qiye but no one answered. On the other hand, Tao Wuji met Zhao Hui in the bathroom and was about to tell him about his appointment. Unexpectedly, someone hurriedly came to tell Dai Qiye that there had been a car accident, and the two left in a hurry.

Dai Qiye's wife Ouyang couldn't bear the blow and was sent to the hospital for fainting. The Discipline Inspection Commission of the head office quickly intervened to understand the situation, but Ouyang firmly believed in her husband's innocence and endured grief to defend him. Zhao Hui and Xie Zhiyuan were both students of Dai Qiye. Dai Qiye was not only a gift to them, but also a teacher and a father. They discussed personally taking care of Dai Qiye's funeral. Tao Wuji was also in a heavy mood. He came to the scene of the accident with flowers and felt confused about the future.
