Post by bunniefuu »

I love you, Kaeo.

You're a superstar.

Your fame is on the rise.

You shouldn't date anyone.

We put so much effort

to make songs,

then somebody copied and sold them.

Why don't we go

to the factory?

So we can root out the problem.

He told me he was gonna pitch my name

as the presenter for Manie Cosmetics.

I wanna do it.

Tell the Artist Relations team

to accept this job.

It's Miss Khwanchai.

I want her to be our presenter.

Your company M Sound

will have more money

to expand its business.

PREVIOUSLY

Hey.

What is it?

You think

that what she's doing

will help her save up to ten million?

Ask him.

Sis. I see you cook all day

How many millions do you have?

If I had just one million, I would stop.

I'd be relaxing and watching TV.

I'd watch something joyful

or go to concerts and chill.

Concerts? Whose concert is that?

Who's your favorite singer?

There are many that I like.

Do you like this one?

Khwanchai M Sound.

Sure, she's pretty.

-Oh, my!

-Oh, so we'll order

two more papaya salads.

I'll give one to Khwanchai.

Make it spicy.

Okay.

What about Kaeota Siang Thong?

Do you like her?

Oh.

I like her so much.

Nice answer.

I'll order three papaya salads

with extra crabs.

And about Kaeota,

Kaeota is so famous right now.

She's become more beautiful, hasn't she?

Yes!

-Do it.

-Sis!

The two papaya salads I ordered,

just cancel them.

Oh, what the hell.

Look, our Khwanchai will be

famous in the future.

She'll be a presenter and have her photos

all over the country.

Oh, wake up.

Are you daydreaming?

We're awake now.

She's been offered a presenter job

for an advertisement.

What ads?

-It's Manie Cos

-Stop.

Sis, Manie Cosmetics' products are okay.

Not okay. I'm not okay.

Why are you not okay with them?

You bought them for me to use.

I'm not okay

because I heard that Khwanchai

will be the presenter

for that cosmetics brand.

Who? That's not true.

Mr. Bom said it would be me.

I don't know that. But I heard

from Luli and Lila, those twins from Hell.

They clearly said that

the brand already contacted Khwanchai

to be their presenter.

Actually, by company policy,

I can't tell you who the candidates are.

But since you are siblings,

you two must have talked.

Yes.

I heard from Khwanchai's house.

But why did Khwanchai get this job?

If we compare our reputations,

I am way more famous.

It's about budget.

The price?

Yes.

That's all I can tell.

SIANG THONG MUSIC CO., LTD.

That's not difficult.

You can just lower the price

to be competitive.

Is that all right? Then I'll earn less.

Do you want the job?

You'll be on highway billboards,

on buildings. You'll appear on TV ads.

People will see you all day.

You can promote yourself

and make money. Do you want that?

No matter what,

I'm under the company.

I have to ask them first.

Hey, just negotiate with the company.

Less money but no one would know.

Or you'll let Khwanchai

have those giant photos

sneering at us all over the country?

This is about your dignity.

No.

I won't give in.

Someone contacted me.

They wanted Kaeota to be

a presenter of Manie Cosmetics.

Did they contact us, Ueng?

Yes, they did.

But when I sent our quotation,

they went silent.

Was it too expensive, Ueng?

We have our standard price calculation.

You are of high value now.

We quoted according to that.

But Kaeo is the one who works, Ueng.

Kaeo is not entitled

to choose her job at all?

I understand,

but this is the rule and how we work

in the company, Kaeo.

And it is the policy.

Thank you, Jeng.

Thanks for the answer, Ueng.

Let's go.

I don't think Kaeota is that difficult,

but her follower is.

They keep referring to rules and policies.

What do we do now, sis?

SIANG THONG MUSIC CO., LTD.

Producer of artist manager

is a staff member.

He has to do what he's supposed to.

Moreover, I know this policy

was established by the executives.

So what? You want me to talk to Mr. Rong?

If talking to staff members doesn't work,

we should talk to someone with authority.

You must do it yourself, Kaeo.

Go.

‪CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

You want a presenter job?

Yes, Mr. Rong.

But I'm afraid I would lose this job

because the company

quoted the price too high.

Do you know?

Before an artist becomes so famous

that their market value

is high enough to sell,

the company must spend quite a lot.

Think about it like this.

We make songs for you.

We make shows for you.

How much do we spend to hire all the crews

to make you famous?

This path you are walking

has been laid with the company's money.

That's why we have a standard rate.

So it's not fair to the artist.

Why can't the artist choose what to do?

The artist has feelings.

We're not just a product

that you can sell by kilos.

Why did you say that?

Don't forget who Mr. Rong is.

I'm sorry.

But I really want this job, Mr. Rong.

What product is that?

Manie Cosmetics.

Manie Cosmetics

Owned by Miss Aree.

Do you know her?

The owner is my friend.

If you would kindly allow me

to get this advertising job,

I think it would be beneficial

to Siang Thong.

I'm willing to do more projects.

Please let me see the new world, Mr. Rong.

If we allowed you to breach the rules,

other singers would do the same.

It's going to affect the company.

There are always exceptions to the rules.

Why would I give you

the exception, Kaeota?

Because Miss Aree, Manie Cosmetics' owner,

is your friend.

A discount for a friend

so that Siang Thong gets the job.

-I am the by-product.

-Enough.

No more negotiation.

Just leave.

One more thing.

My rival for this job

is Khwanchai from Mr. Mahannop's M Sound.

If I don't get this job,

M Sound would instead.

-You mean your sister?

-Yes.

Khwanchai from Mr. Mahannop's M Sound.

From now on, when we go out,

we'll see Khwan's photos

on buildings and billboards.

-She'll be super famous.

-You're dreaming too much.

That's too much.

But it would be nice.

I will do every job to make money.

That's good.

Aim high, sh**t for the stars.

Well, for your job today,

is Mr. Nop or Mr. Tin driving you?

Come on, just use your head!

It has to be Mr. Nop. Don't you see?

Roses around the house

are blooming,

waiting for Mr. Nop night and day.

What a smart mouth you have.

I feel sorry for Mr. Nop now.

There's no income.

Our M Sound will be in trouble.

If I get this ad job,

our company can keep operating

for many more months.

I truly admire your thought.

INCOMING CALL - MR. NOP

Mr. Nop is here.

Yes, Mr. Nop. I'm ready.

What? They didn't choose me?

Who will they choose? Who's my rival?

When the agency called me,

they didn't say who. They just said

That it wasn't me.

Khwan, I understand.

We hope, and we get disappointed.

If you're not in a mood to work today,

let's postpone the interview.

It's not a big deal.

Go. Let's go.

Pek.

You know, our big boss

miraculously lowered an artist's price.

He said we must get

the Manie Cosmetics' job.

Who?

Who else? It's Kaeota.

She wanted this job so much

that she approached Mr. Rong.

When Mr. Rong knew the rival was

M Sound's singer, he agreed.

He messed up our system.

Hey! Speak quietly.

I'm on the phone with reporters.

Thank you very much, Khwanchai,

for giving an interview

at our editor's office.

With other singers,

setting up an interview with them

was like a chase and run.

It's my great pleasure.

I've become famous

because you published the news about me.

But

can I ask you for a favor?

It's about pirated CDs.

Please let the fans know

if they still want me and the team

to continue making music,

they should please buy the original ones.

Got it. I'll including that in the story.

How about sales now? Are they good?

So-so.

But my fans

still welcome and are kind to me.

You're so nice.

I think you shouldn't have lost

the ad job.

You mean

This morning,

I talked to Siang Thong's PR team.

They gossiped that Kaeota

snatched the ads from an M Sound singer.

What's the real story?

Your larb is served.

Put it here.

Huh.

I'm moody.

Yes.

Manie's lipstick is very good,

isn't it? They have vision too.

They've chosen

the right presenter for their ads.

Here it is.

Sis. No papaya salad today.

I'll order duck larb, pork larb.

Make it spicy.

I'll celebrate Kaeota's good luck.

What luck is that?

All of a sudden Kaeota,

will be a presenter

of Manie Cosmetics.

SERVICED APARTMENT AND RESTAURAN

Hello!

Get ready for face and skin jobs.

My Kaeota is so talented.

Thank you so much, sis,

for telling me to ask Mr. Rong directly.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been chosen.

Just believe me and you'll be fine.

I almost forgot to tell you.

While I was buying food,

I met Lila and Luli.

So I kinda bluffed to them

that you were already chosen

to be Manie Cosmetics' presenter.

How did they look when they heard that?

They were shocked.

They must be running like dogs

to tell their master.

Come to think of it,

their whole company must be sad now.

You know.

"Siblings rivalry

to be the presenter of the cosmetics brand

with the highest sales at the moment."

Nop, did we lose this job?

-Come on.

-What are you doing?

What are you reading?

Let me see what it is.

I want some of these newspapers

to wrap mangos at home.

Can I have it?

Me too. The mirror at home is so dirty.

I look so bad in the mirror.

I'll use it to wipe the mirror.

I'll share some with you.

And this.

And this.

Why did the newspaper

have to publish this?

It's already bad that I lost this job.

They even compared our photos

to make me look worse.

This is not about Khwan and Kaeota.

It's about Siang Thong

that's trying to beat M Sound.

If it was someone else,

I wouldn't be hurt this much.

Why does she have

to beat me in everything?

If it wasn't that company,

I wouldn't be this mad too.

If Khwanchai wasn't my artist,

would you have stolen this job for Kaeota?

How much profit have you lost?

And you're not bothered at all?

You understand now that it's competition?

Big fish have bigger lungs

than small fish.

They're also stronger.

They can eat small fish

whenever they want.

So you admit that

you intentionally did this to me?

And you also admit that

you've learned a lesson.

Dad, I know how to stop reporters

from writing headlines

saying that I'm a tiny company

run by Mr. Rong's son.

What are you gonna do?

I'll stop using Mahasuwan as my last name.

Nop!

I will use my mom's last name.

You can use

whoever's last name you please.

Get out of my company now!

With pleasure.

Mr. Nop.

You had an errand here?

Yes. I'm done now.

What's wrong?

You must've known

that Kaeota got a cosmetics presenter job

by stealing it from Khwanchai.

I saw the news.

I know it's business,

but I believe a kind man like you

doesn't want siblings to fight anymore.

Please tell Kaeota if you can.

M SOUND CO., LTD.

You shouldn't have had an argument

with your dad like that.

You might not understand that

having a father you can't fully respect

is awkward.

I was angry whenever he tried

to teach me business.

When he should do it

and spend time with his son,

he did something else.

Mr. Nop.

I'm sorry.

I brought

I brought this up

and made you uncomfortable.

I was really mad

because he stole your job.

I got over it.

Just think that

it's not our time yet.

You're right. It might not be our time.

When do you think that time will be?

Do you believe in me?

I'm in this music industry because of you.

I have fans, I have a place to stay,

I have shows

because you did everything for me.

I'm sure, and I really believe in you.

If you believe in me,

I promise

I will make it our time someday.

Khwanchai's time.

SOMEONE CLOSE

KHWANCHAI - M SOUND

Please have a seat.

-Hello.

-Hello.

So this is Kaeota.

Dad.

You chose her.

You can't say you never saw Kaeota.

Lots of people said that the real me

is not quite like in photos or on TV.

Yes. When Kaeota knew that

she was going to be a presenter

for Manie Cosmetics, she worked out

and prepared her skin for this job.

That's good.

Because you'll have a lot to do.

Advertisements in motion, print,

and events

My dad and I have to go now.

We have another meeting.

Let's go, Dad.

MANIE COSMETICS

Hello?

Khwan is in the bathroom.

Want me to tell her who's calling?

Okay, just a second.

Khwan.

Who's calling?

Miss May.

Miss May, the owner of Manie Cosmetics.

-Miss May, the owner?

-Yes.

Hello, Miss May.

Don't say sorry to me, Miss May.

It's the owner's right

to choose whomever they want.

Having this opportunity to see you

is my honor already.

Oh yes, sure.

If Manie Cosmetics wants

to hire me next year,

I must thank you in advance, Miss May.

Yes. Have a safe trip. Bye-bye.

What did she say?

Miss May apologized to me

for not choosing me.

But she likes me a lot.

But Kaeo

asked Mr. Rong, Siang Thong's owner,

to force her dad to choose her.

She's tricky.

At least now we know why we lost.

Ek!

You must have heard that

I will be the new presenter, right?

A job which was supposed

to be Khwanchai's.

How did you get this job?

So what?

It's a deal between both companies.

I have nothing to do with it.

I understand how management works, Kaeo.

SIANG THONG MUSIC CO., LTD.

Come here.

I don't understand.

You're siblings.

Is it necessary

to be such aggressive rivals?

All this time,

she's the one who

has wanted to compete with me.

The song you composed for me,

she got to sing it first.

When I came to Bangkok and struggled,

she enjoyed her life

being the band leader.

How can you say she enjoyed her life?

I was there with her. I saw it.

You're taking her side again.

Didn't you see when I made

the album with Mr. Mahannop

that she tried to take me down?

Don't you think Khwan also wants

to compete with me?

Don't you know that

you're way more famous than Khwan?

Basically, you're in a bigger company.

They can give you everything you want.

So I have to sacrifice

everything to Khwanchai, your dear sister?

I have my goal.

I must be number one.

Therefore, there can't be two number ones.

You should have known that

Khwan thinks the same way.

Don't you know

how much I want

the Stage of Number One award?

There's a long time

before the next announcement.

Yes.

But I must work hard from today forward.

Although it's not now,

someday, I'm gonna reach the goal.

It's just another step toward it.

I understand now.

Thank you for understanding me.

And

about the presenter job,

what are you supposed to do?

Well, next week there will be

a sh**ting for an ad.

And I have to make some appearances,

quite often.

Well, that's good.

They're gonna be good days of your life.

I'll take my leave then.

You are the new artists of our company.

You must practice seriously

in singing and dancing classes

until you're ready and pass the test.

Then you'll get to make your own album.

There you are.

Yes?

This is Mr. Saoek,

a rising star composer.

Although he doesn't have

a lot of famous songs yet,

our singers all want to sing his songs.

Other, older composers are upset now.

You're exaggerating.

Don't call me "Mr."

Just call me by my name.

Are you going to compose songs for me?

Regarding the songs,

I have to discuss with Jeng

and Pek first.

It depends on many factors

such as who suits the market

at a particular moment.

Right.

Then I'll choose that one.

So if I pass the test,

can I ask you to compose songs for me?

I'll compose songs for everyone.

Today is the introduction day

when we get to see each other.

If you see me outside, just greet me.

Ask me anything.

-That's all for today?

-Yes.

Okay, I'll go back to work.

As you please.

See you around.

Tape and action!

Lipsticks are your lip's costume.

Wondering what color to choose?

Just ask Manie Girls.

Cut!

Add a little bit of lip color.

More red.

Now, reset.

Write it down.

Hello, Geng.

-Hello.

-Hello, Geng.

Who's that man in the brick-brown jacket?

Mr. Bom said his name is Mr. Geng,

one of Manie Cosmetics' shareholders.

Really?

Why didn't I see him

during the first meeting?

Seems like he just came back from abroad.

I see.

Take ten and action!

Lipsticks are your lip's costume.

Wondering what color to choose?

Just ask Manie Girls.

Cut! Thank you.

Wow!

Oh, my goodness!

Careful.

Come on.

How was it, Director?

Give me some time to check it.

Please wait.

Very beautiful.

Thank you very much, Miss Kaeota.

Yes.

Miss Kaeota.

This is Mr. Geng,

one of Manie Cosmetics' executives.

Mr. Geng, hello.

How was it? Was it okay?

Did I do it all right?

As I said,

very beautiful.

Director, Kaeota's scenes are all good?

Yes, they're all done.

Okay. We'll meet again

for poster and stills sh**ting.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

-Bye-bye.

Let's go, Kaeo.

"Wondering what color to choose."

"Just ask Manie Girls."

The script was funny,

but actually, it's somewhat catchy.

Tonight, I might talk in my sleep

saying "Wondering what color to choose"

repeatedly.

Did you notice?

Mr. Geng, that good-looking guy

who said you're beautiful,

he's one of the company owners.

He looks young though

and also good-looking.

Anyway, how did you know?

Ueng told me. Look,

he might not just want to see you work.

He might also want to court you.

-You're crazy.

-I mean it.

That's enough.

Don't make me get a crush on him.

We just met him, didn't we?

You're daydreaming, sis.

Let's go home.

Stills sh**ting is tomorrow.

Gosh.

If a good-looking millionaire

stared at me like that,

I would make him mine right away.

Sis!

-Let's go.

-I'll take him if you don't.

Saoek called.

Mr. Geng, that good-looking guy

who said you're beautiful,

he's one of the company owners.

He might also want to court you.

That is so funny.

JUST DONE ADS sh**ting.

SO TIRED. I'M GOING TO BED NOW.

JUST DONE ADS sh**ting.

SO TIRED. I'M GOING TO BED NOW.

BANANA LEAF

THAI SNACK SHOP

Kaeota?

Ice, check Miss Kaeota's hair for me.

You might be exhausted

over these days, Ueng,

because Kaeota

has both ads and stills sh**ting.

It's my job anyway.

If Kaeota can do it,

I can take care of her too.

Come to think of it,

the product owner

seems to like Kaeota a lot,

doesn't he?

The product owner is coming!

Hello. Kaeo!

Are you ready? Lighting is done.

She looks good in fuchsia.

She's shining on the camera.

Do you like it?

Excuse me for a bit.

Yes.

SERVICED APARTMENT AND RESTAURAN

Sis.

Why is poster and stills sh**ting

way more exhausting than a concert tour?

I can't believe it.

Can't believe what?

That high-class Geng.

First, he acted like he liked you.

I saw him looking at you with hungry eyes.

Then he just disappeared.

How come?

Just don't care. It's all in your mind.

I don't think it is.

I saw it.

Who's that? You ordered something?

No. Go check it.

Or maybe Saoek skipped out on work

to see you again?

He wouldn't.

Coming!

Flower delivery.

Thank you.

For whom, sis?

Oh! Kaeo.

Look at this. Read it.

Read the sender's name.

THANK YOU FROM

You see? It's not just in my mind.

Gosh.

Why keep looking at it? Call Mr. Geng now.

His number is on the card.

Call him.

Why would I call him, sis?

Just receiving the flowers

should be enough.

Call to tell him that

you've received them.

Like "The flowers are beautiful.

Thank you, Mr. Geng."

Something like that.

-I'll call him.

-I'd better not.

He might think I'm flirtatious.

He sent you flowers.

How would you be being flirtatious?

Hurry up, come on.

I'll dial his number.

I'm calling now.

Go ahead.

Will he answer?

Hello, Mr. Geng.

It's me, Kaeota.

Well

I'm calling to thank you for the flowers.

I've received them.

They're very beautiful.

Well, dining out?

You can.

Well yes, I can.

Japanese food?

You like it.

-I like it.

-Nice!

Okay.

Yes, go.

Yes, I can go.

Yes. That's all.

Is it all right, sis?

Very good. How can you say no

to your customer?

You must be well-mannered.

I want to give you a thank you meal.

That's okay.

Just the flowers were enough.

The flowers are for paving the way.

I want to know you better.

Normally, I don't have many friends.

Nobody is free to eat with me.

Yes.

So let's say

I'm giving you company for this meal.

I'm about to launch a new product,

a healthy drink for women.

Would you like to be a brand ambassador?

Brand ambassador?

It's similar to a presenter.

You'd just need to make

some beautiful appearances.

I also plan to promote it abroad.

So I want a country singer

to represent Thailand.

I don't see anyone

as fit as you, Miss Kaeota.

You can talk with my company.

I barely remember my work schedule.

So you must be working hard.

You need to rest.

I have a yacht in Pattaya

and another one in Phuket.

Whenever I'm bored or stressed out,

I always sail on it to relax.

Are you interested in joining me?

If you don't have much time,

Pattaya is fine.

Let's say you'd give me some company.

It looks delicious.

INCOMING CALL - SAOEK

About the sailing,

what do you think?

Let me think about it.

Go ahead. He offered his friendship.

You should accept it.

Two good opportunities

arrived at the same time.

You'll also be a presenter

for the next product.

We must take this opportunity.

You won't regret

being with a high-class guy.

But Ueng said

I have a job in Pattaya on Saturday.

Gosh!

This is such a perfect opportunity then!

Destiny is doing its job now.

What should I do?

Do what? First, you must

He's approaching, Kaeo.

If he asks you out, say yes. Don't say no.

Here it is.

Hello, Mr. Geng.

Well,

I have a job in Pattaya this Saturday.

Well

Yes, I can. See you.

Wow.

-He'll be waiting for me in Pattaya.

-Great.

How nice. A prince and a princess,

together in a yacht.

Wow.

I want to go with you, but no,

I don't want to interrupt you.

NEXT EPISODE

Happy birthday in advance.

Now, Princess Kaeota

might be able to decide what to have.

I want to keep them both.

-She's testing me.

-Jealous?

Temple fairs are our base.

They bring in good sales.

This is M Sound's way out.

What is happening?

Tell Khwan the truth.
