Fragment 1: Diana is looking at a dress in a high-end store. This is the billionaire John coming over...
John: Why don't you put it on? You wear it very well. [Appropriate praise]
Diana: I can't afford it.
John: That's a pity. [Expressed understanding of his feelings]
Diana: Yes.
John: I think you should own this skirt. Let me buy it for you. [Superb catering, excellent evaluation]
Diana: Would you like to buy this dress for me?
John: Yes.
Diana: Why?
John: I like to see you wearing it. You deserve it. [Meet again]
Diana: I am ashamed. Clothes can be sold, but my people don't sell them (we left after speaking). [A resolute refusal, an impressive refusal. ]
Fragment 2:
John: Sorry, I'm sorry. Please lend me your wife, okay? (A very polite request. Because of the literal translation, the request sounds a bit stiff and indecent. The original meaning is "please let your wife do me a favor, okay?")
David: What did you say?
John: Ask for auspiciousness. (Appropriate excuse)
David: You have to ask her.
John: Is it possible? (Reasonable consultation)
Diana: I don't want it. let's go.
John: Just all of a sudden. (Appropriate persistence and excuses again)
David: Go, it's fun. There is no loss anyway.
John: How is it?
Others: Tell her to go and see how?
Diana passed by with embarrassment.
John: Thank you!
John: Please sit down. I have lost all day. As soon as you showed up, I won (actually lost), and you brought me good luck. I said this is a good sign, what do you think? (This sentence is actually to appease Diana's unnatural and uneasy mood, a proper excuse to make the listener feel very comfortable)
John: What do you want to drink?
Diana: No, thank you.
John: Eat sugar?
John: 100,000 yuan.
Diana: Just like that (betting).
John: Just like that.
John: Oh, not so.
Diana: I'm sorry.
John: What we need now is... a piece of 9. Well, we don't like this. (Lost)
Diana: My luck is not good after all.
John: Do you like playing cards?
Diana: I don't particularly like it.
John: I should ask earlier. Where's the stock?
Diana: I like it.
Fragment 3: David and John are playing billiards.
David: Who is that Xue Kefu?
John: He helped me do things. The person I trust. He once killed people. Tell me, what do you think you will be in ten years? (Proper personal privacy can win the favor of others)
David: I don't mind being a billionaire like you.
John: It's a good game, I mean it's not money. . . What will satisfy you? Sleep well at night?
David: You mean you are not satisfied?
John: Who will be satisfied.
Diana: I am satisfied.
John: Is she serious?
David: I hope so.
John: Although you didn't win money in the casino, you are lucky. Although I have money, security, and career. But you have what I don't have.
David: There are always things that money can't buy.
John: Not much.
Diana: Some things are not for sale.
John: For example?
Diana: You can't buy people.
John: This is too naive, I buy people every day.
Diana: It may be okay in business, but not when it comes to relationships.
John: You mean you can't buy love? This is a cliché.
Diana: This is absolutely true.
John: Really? What do you think of it? (Pointing to David)
David: I agree with Diana.
John: Do you agree? Let's test this old saying. Suppose I give you one million dollars and ask your wife to stay with me all night.
David: I would take it as a joke.
John: Just treat it as I am not joking. how do you say?
Diana: He will tell you to die.
John: I didn't hear him say.
David: I will tell you to die.
John: This is a reflexive answer, because you think it is a hypothesis. If there is such a sum of money, I am not laughing. One million yuan will pass in a blink of an eye, but this sum of money can last a lifetime. Think about it, 1 million yuan, a lifetime guarantee, can be obtained overnight. You don't need to reply right away, but think about it. seriously.
David: We definitely don't.
John: Then you have already answered. And it proved that there are some things that money can't buy. It's getting late, I'm going to another date. Would you please dance? Of course with your permission.
David: I think it's better for you to keep the appointment. Don't miss out and make another $1 billion.
John: I understand. I don't want to be separated from her if I change it (the technique of catering). Good night.
Fragment 4: John was standing on the board, when Diana came over. . .
Diana: They called me over and said you were ready.
John: Come here. You have one less deduction.
Diana: Thank you.
John: I want to show you something. (This sentence has appeared many times in the film, it is very classic, I'll show you something. Don’t forget this sentence when a man is dating. This sentence has three purposes: 1. Talking without a topic At that time, you can say it so as not to embarrass both parties; 2, let the other party think that you are prepared and sincere; 3, arouse the other’s curiosity and interest, and easily obey.)
Diana: How What's going on?
John: The lights are out.
Diana: I saw it, why?
John: Look.
Diana: Can you put out those too?
John: I am working hard. Who made the decision?
Diana: Two of us.
John: Do it for your own reasons, otherwise don't do it. (Very frank suggestion)
Diana: You don't know him.
John: I know he didn't stop you. If you are my person, I will not share you with anyone. (This sentence has touched the heart of the other party, deep insight!)
Diana: You have no right to criticize David. You are the one who buys women with money.
John: Do you think I need to spend money to have a woman?
Diana: Then why buy me?
John: Because you said that others can't buy you.
Diana: You didn't buy me. We just have sex.
John: You may enjoy it.
Diana: Don't be too sure.
John: I think I can do it. (Takes out a coin) We do it on the obverse side, and cancel it on the reverse side. Turn the boat back home without hurting feelings. how do you say?
Diana: This is your party.
John: This is my lucky silver coin, so I won't lose. (Display front), believe me, if you don’t choose, it won’t happen. (This sentence is rich in philosophy. In the words of Warren Buffett, "The biggest mistake of each of us is not what we did, but not what we did.")
