I… [0:03](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=3) What are you doing here so late? We're trying to figure something out. [0:06](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=6) Figure something out? What? Getting food. We need to eat. [0:09](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=9) You need to figure out how to eat? Because we have no money. [0:11](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=11) Where are you from? Henan. What did you come here for? [0:14](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=14) We came here to find work. Factory work. [0:16](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=16) What about the factory? The factory let us all go. [0:18](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=18) So what are you sitting here waiting to do now? [0:20](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=20) We're waiting for him to open up. Then we'll borrow some money, buy tickets, and leave. [0:25](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=25) Who are you borrowing from? Friends. We don't dare tell our parents. [0:28](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=28) Why don't you dare tell your parents? Don't they look after you? No. [0:30](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=30) Then what if you can't borrow any? If we can't, we'll figure something out when the time comes. [0:34](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=34) Why are you figuring something out again? [0:35](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=35) Why are you always trying to figure things out? [0:36](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=36) Mainly because we don't know what else to do. [0:39](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=39) If that doesn't work, we'll pawn this phone. [0:41](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=41) She already pawned her phone. The two of us share one phone. You both use one phone? [0:45](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=45) Sometimes she logs into her WeChat, sometimes I log into mine. [0:48](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=48) Bro, could you give us a cigarette to smoke? [0:50](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=50) Cigarettes? You're out? No, we… We haven't smoked for two or three hours. [0:55](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=55) Two or three hours? Wow, you make it sound like you think that's a really long time. [0:59](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=59) Come on, come on. Thanks, thanks. Thanks, bro. Thanks, bro. [1:01](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=61) So, are you two hungry? A little. Come on, come on. Let me treat you to a meal first. Okay. [1:07](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=67) What’s wrong? We could just buy some bread across the street. [1:09](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=69) Bread won’t fill you up, and it’s not nutritious. [1:11](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=71) Let’s go eat hamburgers over there. Come on, let’s go. [1:12](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=72) Bro, why are you so good to us? I’m not that good. [1:14](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=74) You treated us to a meal, and then you bought us drinks, too. [1:17](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=77) You two girls were over there with no money and hadn’t eaten all day. [1:20](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=80) But we’ve never met anyone as nice as you. [1:22](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=82) You’ve never met anyone like that? No. What about boyfriends? [1:24](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=84) Boyfriends are useless. We always have to figure things out for them. [1:28](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=88) They even cheat on us. You can have it. Come on, come on. Go ahead, eat. [1:32](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=92) Wow, bro, you ordered so much. Hadn’t you gone a whole day without eating? [1:35](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=95) That tattoo of yours is pretty unique. How much did it cost? [1:37](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=97) It cost over 3,000 back then. A little over 3,000 in total. [1:40](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=100) Then I got it colored in bit by bit, 100 or 200 each time. [1:43](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=103) Can you pay in installments? Yes. He colors in just a little section each time, worth 100 or 200. [1:47](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=107) So all the money you earn from working goes toward this. [1:51](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=111) Yeah. Eat some more. When you’re done, I’ll go buy the tickets. [1:52](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=112) Then you can head back tomorrow morning. [1:54](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=114) I kind of don’t want to go back. Why not? [1:56](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=116) I think you’ve got potential. Can we follow you? [1:59](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=119) We can do anything. What do you mean? As long as we have money, we can do anything. [2:03](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=123) The thing is, I don't have any money. That's okay. As long as you're there, that's enough. Yeah. [2:07](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=127) Stop it. I don't—I don't know what you guys are doing. [2:09](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=129) What's wrong? This— pack it up. We'll pack up whatever we can't finish. [2:13](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=133) Why pack it up? What do you mean, you can't finish it? Yeah. [2:15](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=135) We can eat it in the car later, so we won't have to spend money buying more. [2:18](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=138) Eat it in the car? Yeah. I'll just buy you something new. [2:20](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=140) No need, no need. So what's your plan? We were planning to go back over there and keep sitting and waiting. [2:26](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=146) The station. Yeah. Seriously, Wuchi Moyi is really dangerous. [2:29](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=149) I'll book you a hotel across the street. [2:31](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=151) That's too expensive. You can't sit by the road and wait. It's too dangerous. [2:34](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=154) No, that's not okay. Let's go to that hotel nearby. [2:36](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=156) Which hotel? The one in the alley. We've stayed over there before. [2:40](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=160) The hotel in the alley? Won't it be pretty rough? [2:42](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=162) No, we're used to it. I'll take you there. Okay, then I'll go book it for you. [2:46](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=166) Let's get a room. Do you have any rooms left? How many people? Two. [2:49](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=169) I'll be down in a bit. The owner looked me over curiously. [2:53](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=173) You usually stay here, right? Yeah, we always stay here. [2:56](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=176) Oh my God. Wait, are you sure people can stay here? [3:00](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=180) Sure, you can stay here. You stay here? Yeah. [3:02](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=182) Isn't this moldy? It's okay. We used to live here before. Yeah. [3:08](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=188) We're used to living here. Aren't you too hot? I'm fine. [3:12](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=192) How about I turn on a fan for you? [3:15](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=195) Could your fan spray water? No, no. Bro, do you have a girlfriend now? Huh? [3:21](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=201) Yeah. Why do you ask? You've been so good to me, I want to repay you. [3:25](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=205) What do you mean by that? How would you repay me? [3:26](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=206) What kind of girls do you like? I don't have a particular type. [3:29](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=209) I go by how I feel. I like girls who are good to me. [3:31](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=211) What about girls like us? What kind is that? [3:33](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=213) I know I have tattoos, but I'll be good to you. [3:36](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=216) Right. What does being good to me mean? I'll give you everything I can. [3:40](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=220) What do you have to give me? We'll work hard. We'll go earn money. [3:44](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=224) You'll earn money for me to spend? Right. [3:45](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=225) It's not about how much money you can earn. The key is— We were thinking maybe we'd work as billiards assistants when the time comes. [3:50](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=230) Billiards assistants? Okay. I've heard that industry isn't all that great. [3:54](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=234) But we don't know what else to do right now, or you can tell us what to do, and we'll do it. [3:59](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=239) I… [4:03](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=243) No, I hadn't thought of anything for you to do. [4:05](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=245) This is getting a little awkward. Sorry. [4:06](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=246) Maybe we should go first. I'll take you outside. This fan… [4:08](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=248) Bro, don't go yet. What's wrong? Can you sit here for a while first? [4:11](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=251) Just sit for a bit. What's wrong? We'll go downstairs and get something. [4:14](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=254) Get what? It's so boring just sitting here. [4:16](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=256) Don't you two need to get some rest? It's fine. We're in no hurry to rest. [4:18](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=258) We can rest in the car tomorrow. Oh. Could you wait here for us for a little while? [4:22](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=262) All right, all right, all right. Go ahead. Later. [4:24](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=264) We're back. What'd you go do? We bought some liquor, and then we also bought… [4:28](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=268) We bought liquor. Bro, this is for you. Holy shit. [4:32](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=272) We bought this for you. Why'd you buy me cigarettes? [4:35](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=275) Well, to repay you, since you just treated us to a meal and drinks. [4:39](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=279) Didn't you say you had no money? Where'd you get it? [4:41](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=281) I just traded in my fourteen for that… You traded in your phone? [4:45](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=285) I went to the phone shop next door and traded it in. [4:48](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=288) What the hell are you doing? Hurry up and exchange it back. Come on. [4:51](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=291) It's fine, it's fine. It's already done. We already bought these. [4:53](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=293) You didn't have to. I could've bought all this. Why did you… [4:55](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=295) It's fine, it's fine. Holy shit, I wish you both all the best. [5:02](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=302) All right, I'm heading out. Get some rest early. [5:03](https://preview.translate.mom/transcript/ZxLZwHj7uxBD/transcript-of-conversation-among-friends-about-money?t=303) Bro, let us repay you tonight.
