YANGNIU ZAI BEIJING {FOREIGN BABES IN BEIJING} {PT. 15
OF 20} {MANDARIN CHINESE} (TV)

Summary

One in this dramatic series chronicling the love affairs of two American girls living in Beijing who become involved with the inhabitants of a traditional Chinese courtyard. In this episode, Mr. Li and Jack discuss the possibility of a job for Tianming, while Tianliang debates what to do about his current job. Mr. Li invites Louise's father Jack to eat real Chinese food and to ask him about a job for Tianming. At the restaurant, Jack is turned off by the food, but says that he will offer Tianming a job. When Tianming goes to talk to Jack about the job, he realizes that Jack's discussion of qualifications is about Tianliang and not himself. After the meeting, Tianming tells Tianliang what Jack is attempting to do. Tianliang tells Louise, who yells at her father for tricking not only her husband, but her brother-in-law. That night the Li family attempts to talk Tianliang into the job at Jack's company, but Tianliang really wants to stay obedient to his Chinese company rather than leave for an international company. Tianming becomes angered at his brother's ignorance. That night, Louise's mother sneaks to the courtyard to tell them that Jack will be leaving tomorrow for the United States and that the offer might have fallen through. When Tianliang goes to a meeting for the Japanese car company the next day, they attempt to give him money to entice him, however Tianliang is offended and tells Zhizi that he won't take the money. Later that day, an agreement between China and Japan is signed, with the help of Tianliang, to allow for the import of Japanese cars to China. Later on, Louise and Tianliang go to the Great Wall for sightseeing and to discuss Jack's offer, which Tianliang decides not to accept. The next day, Louise's family and the Lis are having a meal when Jack announces that he is returning to the United States. Just then, Tianliang enters and gives Jack some important documents that may help his car company. Jack is quite grateful, but leaves because he has to catch a flight. As the episode ends, Miss Ji's former classmate Dongzi and his daughter visit her again. He tells her that, because he has been busy, he has been unable to see her, but he wants her to come by their house so they may all spend time together, hinting that he might be attracted to her.
