In October 24, 1980

Hong Kong announced that illegal immigrants

...would be expounded as soon as they're caught

In front of Admiralty's Immigration Department

...people all crowded together

They hoped in the last 72-hour deadline

...they could become a permanent resident

Despite the bad weather...

they were undaunted

They had joy and hope in them

They hoped to become the few lucky ones

In Hong Kong, do we really understand

how tough it is for them...

to have experienced the journey

from the border to Tsim Sha Tsui!

Let's take a look...

at the plight of the majority and unfortunate ones

Move!

Tung, I'm exhausted

Can I take a rest?

Almost in Diamond Hill. Be strong

In Diamond Hill. There're diamonds around

Then we will be rich

Sister, hold on to me

Our dream will soon come true

Right, soon come true

Nice and easy, Tsim Pei Tsui in the distance

Oil price like water, to buy meat without lining up

Just no queues... imagine!

Hurry

Climb up

Hurry

Sister, show us the phone numbers

Let everyone memorize it

No need. It's alright if Ah Tung keeps it

What if we're separated?

Don't worry

A boat is coming

Yes

The boat

Go

Comrade...

Everybody stop. Stop

Comrades, comrades

Don't let them on. No

Let us up on it

What're you doing?

Please let us up on the boat

Let them into the boat. Let them in

No

Mister, you can't let them die

Who's gonna pay for them?

Take pity on us

Get off

We'll never get off

Why are you pulling my legs?

I have enough of you

Don't follow us after landing

One, two...

Thanks

Get up. Don't sleep

Yes, sir

Lie down...

Quick. Be quick

Send signal, quick

Lie down

Go

Hey, we gather up

Okay, let's go

Go. What're you doing?

The boss just said you can't follow us

Go, get lost. Go, go

What should we do now?

Let them go away first

Be slow

We follow them

Come on

Sir, there're many people landing

Fire the signal bomb

Freeze. Don't run...

Don't run

Where can you go?

Stop... Freeze...

Get him

Go

No

Go...

No

Go... You want to go

Go... Shut up

A month's start generally sees many illegal immigrants

But why so less now?

The barbwire is made higher. That's the reason

Oh, yes

Are the handcuffs ready?

All ready long ago

And the Hok Lo Group

They're troubling us...

aren't they?

We have to think of something

Otherwise, we can't make our living

Here

Come down...

Here looks just like our hometown

It's a lot different in Diamond Hill

What're you doing? Why don't answer me?

I said what're you doing

Are you sneaking here in?

It's dangerous here. Cops always search here

How about...

come and take shelter in my home

Thank you, Mister. Thanks

You'll suffer if the cops got you

It wouldn't be as simple as just deporting you back!

Someone's here

We have a guest. Go tidy up the place

Okay

Come in. Have a seat

Help yourself. Just like home

I'll get you some tea

Thank you

The police arrested 256 people

They either rode boats or swam over

They're illegal immigrants from Mainland China

But a few of them had escaped

Miss, take a sip

Main passage of Lau Fau Shan

...had set up road blocks

...to stop the illegal immigrants to enter the town

That's the end of our News Update

Coming up is the Relaxing Music

Have some tea, guys

Thanks

You're welcome

Can you help us to make a call, Mister?

Making calls?

I'll give you this watch

No need

Ming

What is it, Dad?

Take them out first

Okay

People come and go around here

You'll be in trouble if you're seen

You guys had better hide up

Okay

Come

Go in

It's tough here. But it's temporary

Hello, Mr. Luk?

Mr. Luk Shang Heng?

It's about this

You have three relatives arrived Hong Kong

They staying in my house now

That's 5,000 dollars for each person

Not expensive. Standard price. No discount

That will be 15,000 in total

Okay, I'll wait for you

Hey, your relatives will come to pick you up

Follow me

Here. Take back your watch

Thank you

Be patient. Watch them

Mr. Luk. You're on time!

Don't hurry. Pay first

I only have 10,000. Please accept it

In this case, you have 10,000 dollars

Take two guys to leave first

When you have 5,000 more, take the last one

We have made a deal on the phone

No way. That's it

Ming, release two persons

Which of you two will go first?

You two leave first

How about you?

Don't worry. If we can leave now

...we will find a way

Okay, go now

Uncle

Chuen

Shang Tung, he's my uncle

Talk later. Let's go

Come on. Change your clothes

Get him some clothes

Thanks

Go

Don't let him go. That costs 5,000

Dai Chung

Don't run

Get these two back to compensate

Don't come close. I'll kill

Take it easy, man

Let me go

Go home

Get them back

Go inside

I'll lock you up first

Mister

Shut up

I'll kill you if you don't shut up

Folks, what's the matter?

I heard you had captured some illegal immigrants

No

You've got men and women. You're rich

Man, I've been in this for ages

I know of things by just a glance

I, Mr. Hok, have never been cheated

Tell me if you're smart

No, nothing

No?

Let's deal with it

Move. Come out

What? What is it?

How is it? Did they leave?

Open the door

They've gone

Let's go

Help!

Go...

Hey, look

Come

Dai Chung

Go in. Quick

Where are you going?

Where are you gong? Go

They captured many illegal immigrants

Go back and think of something

Full house

You lose

I lose?

Get up. Go

Damn you!

Guard up there

Go. Quick. Go

Go now

These two are really trouble

Hey...

What are you playing? You're selfish

What? Take her if you want

Wonderful

What's wrong with you?

Look, it's all over me

That's lucky of you

How is it, Boss?

No phone number? Sell her to some whorehouse

I'll fix it

Is she Min?

Yes

Boss

We captured two illegal immigrants

One female. One male

Such good weather. Why there's no illegal immigrant?

Fatty's tents are bursting full of illegals

Boss, how about we seize them back?

Are you sure you can do it?

Don't worry. Piece of cake

Did you get their phone numbers?

Oh yes, I'll go right now

You love clean, huh!

Then you'll be treated like her

Hey, put some cow shit on her

Dirtier the better. Then they'll tend to keep off

What's the phone number?

What number?

Your Hong Kong relative's phone numbers?

I forgot

You?

I forgot too

You play fool

It's your trick again

Chuen...

Chuen...

Don't run

Chuen...

Sit down...

Chuen...

Shut up!

Chuen...

You've got enough. It's my turn

Chuen...

Chuen...

I'm useless...

You're good

You're lucky this time

Come on out...

No, please

Come out...

Knock them out and tie them back

Mr. Hok said to burn Fatty's men

Be careful. Don't burn those illegals

Go

That's my seventh time illegal entry

Twice I got caught by British Army

Four times by the Smuggler's Gang

Seven times?

This is also the last time

I'll fight to death with whoever stops me

Your hair and beard are long

You don't look a bit like an illegal immigrant

I had lived here for four months

Four months already?

I took some time to grow hair and beard

and get to know Hong Kong

You don't have relatives in Hong Kong?

I have. They don't have money for smugglers

Hong Kong people have no money?

Some have. Others don't want to pay

Seven times here, so I have seen everything

In these four months

I gathered that the Smuggler chief has gone berserk

Get a relative's phone number & you'll be treated well

Otherwise, you'll be in deep trouble

They sold the girls to whorehouse

And pushed the men into the sea to die

Then they had treated you well

They let you stay here for four months

They were never good to anyone

Before coming here,

I stole a grenade from the militias

Grenade?

All for this, I got food and drink

and newspaper. When I knew more about HK

I would not need people to pay for me

It's just 20-30 miles from here to Tsim Sha Tsui

Not too far nor too near

All depends on how you get there!

Is it worth it? I think...

You need to go regardless of anything

We all agreed before we set off

At least we have to take a look

Hard time? We have borne it all in the past

But...

There are illegal immigrants!

Move... Be quick...

Quick. Move

Boss, it's all done

How many of them?

Twenty-six

Lock them up

Move... Go in...

Don't dream of escape

What are you looking at?

Dai Chung

Sister

What are you looking at? Step back

Still want to go

You want to get hit?

What're you looking at?

Cousin...

Quick

Quick

Hang him up

Run, huh?

Anyone wanting to escape will be like him

Take off their clothes

See if they can escape!

No...

Get gasoline

Sister...

Burn her

No

Stand back

Well, will you strip or not?

Sister...

Sister

Sister

Sister...

Sister...

Let me down...

Sister...

Let me down...

No, let me down...

Your meal

Comrade, they can drink soda water

How come we have none?

Moron, they have telephone numbers

Just numbers? I have numbers too

You have phone numbers?

Sure, I really have numbers

Please give me one

You really have numbers?

Yes, thanks

What is it?

5354!

Go to hell

We're Hong Kong guys. We're not stupid

Country boy, you're so dumb

How about my meal?

Newspaper?

You have no number!

I have no number! But I have justice!

What justice?

This is the "justice"!

There must be others with numbers. Ask them

Phone numbers?

Watch this if you don't speak

Watch. Watch here

Watch it

Watch it...

Is it clear?

No...

No...

I beg you. No!

Mother!

Phone numbers?

I forgot. I really forgot

Wait

Please stop

I beg you. Don't treat me like that

I beg you. I'll do anything for you

I'll do anything for you

Really?

Yes, anything

As long as you don't treat me like that

I'll do anything for you

Let me go

Okay

Didn't you say you'll do anything for me?

Yes

Quiet

Get up

Phone numbers?

I don't know

Don't know. It's better you say it early

I think it's 268579

Wong Tai Sin Police Station, hello...

You go to hell

You dare lie to us

You go to hell

You dare lie to me

What do you want?

Move away

You want to take me out again?

You want me to see your penis again?

It's small, what good is it?

Let me see it

What do you want?

Don't you want me to see?

Come on, I like to see it

Let go

What? You want to look at his penis

Crazy

Then I'll look at yours

What a crazy bitch!

Okay, all damned small organs

None of you have big ones

She's mad. Let's go

She's nuts

Clean them

No...

Turn to other side

Like it? Kneel down

Next

Next

What are you looking? Sit tight

This one

Next

Please forgive me for any inconvenience caused

It's alright...

Please

Damn you

I am so sorry for that

I give you a discount. 3,000 only

Come

Look

Turn. Turn around

Turn around, hear me?

Hands up...

Jump. Higher

Chuen...

Sister...

Jump. Come on. Jump

Chuen...

Jump

Chuen...

Sister...

Jump. Be quick...

Let her go

Listen well

If you don't hand out the phone numbers

...you'll be like her

Chuen

Sister

Bastard

I told you to memorize the numbers

And you don't believe me

They can't do anything

...to me

That kid has numbers that he don't want to say

What?

Let me tell you something

The kid writing on the ground; He has numbers

He just kept it in his mind and won't speak out

Okay

Give me a chance. Take me to the town

Phone numbers?

Don't know

No?

Say it, if you're smart

I won't even if I know it

Dare you to rape me?

Dai Chung. Dai Chung

Happy Birthday to you...

Brother, happy birthday...

Happy birthday to you...

Dai Chung...

Dai Chung...

Move away...

Dai Chung...

Chuen...

Chuen...

Chuen...

Traitor

Traitor, go to hell

You condemn Dai Chung to death, you know?

Don't hit me

Don't hit me

Now Boss is dead, what do we do?

In this case, we are nothing without a leader

We have to elect a new boss

We can't do without one

I don't know how you feel

I'll elect the Shark to be our boss

What is your suggestion?

I say, although he's the eldest...

I have the longest time working with boss

I don't care who is the boss

It's very important to handle those illegal immigrants

Poison Snake...

I'll be going

Poison Snake, you want to leave? Take me too

Take me with you

I beg you

Take us all to go together

Okay, on one condition

You have to listen to me

Okay, now what?

Listen well

We have to think of how to tackle those Smugglers

Take me with you, I beg you

Those immigrants have neither numbers nor address

They eat up the food everyday

You can't have fun with them or sell them

What good is it to keep them here?

Don't worry. They are okay

Just worry about the Poison Snake

He's a problem. We have to kill him

Get an excuse to kill him

You go. I don't want to die yet

He carries a grenade on him

We still have to think of something

Listen here

We put a net here

Then we get them over

When they're in the net, we hang them up

Then we hit them with sticks and things

Did everyone understand?

Understood

Who knows driving?

I do

I can drive

You go and watch

No one outside

What do we do?

Get a boat and throw them into the sea

We can't do that

Why not? You don't mean to feed them forever

Fire, fire!

Put out the fire

Stop beating. Hang them up

Let us down

Get two sieves

Okay

I got a scissor

Cut their hair first

No

Don't move

Don't move

No

I told you not to move

Let us down

No

Don't move

Don't cut my hair

Get me a better one

How about this!

Go to hell

Chai!

Where do I park?

Over there

Long-toe!

Thanks

We have clothes!

Check the car

Done

Bring them over there

Go

Quick

I am a scumbag...

Does it fit?

Ask them to change after you're done

Let me. You go to get changed

Yell louder!

Damn you. Yell louder...

Go to hell!

Get them here

Get them over there

Shut up. Explain yourself at the station

Identity cards? Do you have identity cards?

Show it to me. Quick

Don't waste my time. Get off first

Where do you live?
