Original subtitles

Many Chinese believe the juxtaposition of stars,

and hills influences human fate,

for generations

They give a lot to the abode of living, calling it "yang abode",

and to the burial site, calling it "yin cavern"

They believe if a good way is found to link up the yin and yang sites,

their wishes will come true

This is geomancy, a branch of Chinese mysticism

Master, dinner is ready

Brother, look

I've found the Conqueror Locale at last

Splendid, brother Congratulations!

The Conqueror Locale represents wealth

Descendants of the buried would be rich

The immense wealth I have now,

can sustain 10 generations of spendthrifts

To me, money means nothing

Reserve this grave for your father

What I need now is a little status

They say the poor mustn't fight with the rich

With money, I want power

I want my descendants to be mandarins, generals or presidents

Brother, money and power are inseparable

Brother

So the true site is over here

Brother

Brother, don't use this site for burial

Why

The peak, at one with prerequisites of the Yellow River

command the four directions from the figure 5 in the center

Like a closed fist, it reigns over the world

This world is mine to take

Look, the five peaks are rubbish in color

The petrified trees testify to rages of thunder

If you were buried here,

your children would be blessed with power,

but millions would die

Get out of my way!

No generals succeed without the loss of lives

No emperors get crowned without sacrifices

The Conqueror is only effective for 24 years

It can create a ruler, a tyrant to be exact

Only brother and I can figure out this site

But brother surely will try to harm me

It's Fate

If I die, may the one blessed with the map,

find the site and destroy it

The sitting prohibits the burial of 10 kinds of people

1, Those who are not filial or brotherly

2, Those who have been evil for generations

3, Those who commit foul deeds themselves

4, Those who are wicked in their inner selves

Brother, where are you going at this hour

You should check out first,

even if you're taking my house as a hotel

You're well versed in this Conqueror's Locale

Where is the Lo Tableau

You tried to cut off my imperial vein

You know this is most wicked

My master said there are ten don'ts in geomancy

Commandment 4 forbids burial of one with evil thoughts

Don't get mired

Give it to me

Follow him

Stop!

- Halt! - Stop!

Get hold of him!

Go to hell

Finish him off!

Jump

Go down and follow him, quick!

You'll get over Bear with it

You're going to be all right Hold on

Collect yourself I'll take you to a doctor

Not necessary, it won't do any good

Mr Wei, you're a geomancy expert

I need your guidance for tonight

I must repay you for risking your life to help me

You said burial in this grave brings money and honor

Our five generations have been servants

Please guide me on this grave forsaken by master,

so that my children may be blessed

- Brother Wong - Father

This Conqueror Locale which is

3 interlocked caverns controls 3 mountains in one sweep

The first cavern represents power

The second, riches

The third, wisdom

I'll have your father buried in the 'wealth' grave,

and my own father in the 'wisdom' grave

Don't forget my descendants when you're rich and powerful

I have a son

His name is Wisely

Miss Wong, we now have the information to trace the computer

Miss Wong, the computer is in the operations room

- It's good Go back to your positions - Yes, Miss Wong

Give me source

Call Control, give me Channel One

Miss Wong, we've located the hacker,

and he's definitely in Rosewood Avenue

Good job, Eric Let's have the map on the screen

You've got it, Boss

Jacky, tell everyone to be careful

Don't ever let him know we've found him

Now you can't get over

Center, can you give me Rosewood

Damn it, I'm sure that he knows who we are already

Let me talk to him while you guys keep tracing him, OK

OK

Who are you

You are raising hell, why

You promise to donate 100 computers to the orphanage

Faithless people like you should be taught a lesson

What promise When was it made

Could we meet and talk it over

Too tough No can do

Jacky, this one must be Chinese

Are you so sure

A foreigner usually doesn't speak in such a way

According to the computer, he's aged between 15 and 25

Perfect!

Jacky, check how many computer whiz kids,

there are in LA

- Chinese - Yes, Madam

My God! Miss Wong, we've found him

He is at no 1500 on Rosewood

- Call the cops - OK, Boss

Get the police over to Rosewood now

There are six of them, madam

Two in mainland China; two left for Japan

Another died in an accident last month

- So there's only one left - Who's it

Yes, sir

Wisely

Inherited from paternal side

Father Wei Tien-hsien

Geomancer cum Mathematician

fields of expertise: geomancy, astronomy, geology

Wisely

Stop!

You really are okay

You've traced my computer virus so soon

Soon We've already spend six months' time

The Whole LA computer network nearly got paralyzed as a result

And much of the police force was bothered too

Don't worry

I didn't hand your data over to the police

Miss Wong asked us to rescue you last time

Why were you so nice to us

The credit was your father's

- My father - Yes, your father Wei Tien-hsien

- Hello, Anna, how are you - Fine, thanks

Would you please tell me how he is, Daniel

He's okay at least for the moment

He's very tough; the fall didn't hurt him much

However, I do have some bad news for you

Have you been suffering from bad headaches too

Oh, yes, I almost forgot,

but I'm getting them more often

Let me show you something

X-ray pinpoints a malignant tumor in the frontal cerebrum

It's very dangerous because as it gets larger,

it could severely damage the brain

Probably he won't die,

but he could go mentally insane

Can you operate on him

I wouldn't advise it on the tumor

There's only a 30�% chance of survival

My father died when I was a child

He left me nothing but a collection of feng shui books

Then I was adopted and taken to the USA

Quite unexpectedly, I got brain trouble

- Wisely, come here, OK - OK Thanks

Your father thought of it over 20 years ago

You mean that feng shui mountain

Thanks to the help of your father,

my brother and I came here in an exodus

It may be a coincidence only,

but my brother has been doing fine from studies to career

He set up the computer kingdom in a matter of years

Unfortunately, he died young

His achievements were remarkable

Now everything's turned into nothingness

We're faced with a great crisis in business

An internal fight in the Company after his death,

caused rival companies to tighten control over us

A series of coups also affected our multinational investments

The new administration froze all our capital,

accusing us of supporting the ex-government

I'm a layman in business

You could imagine the consequence

All this may not be linked with feng shui

We're rich because my father was buried in the 'wealth' grave

You became a computer enfant terrible,

because your grandfather was buried in the 'wisdom' grave

Now our family business is verging on bankruptcy,

and you've trouble with your brain

Could this be coincidence only

There are contradictions

This couldn't have happened to such a good site

This locale has a luck period of 24 years only

If the remains of the ancestors are not unearthed in 24 years,

or the man grave not destroyed,

good fortune will take a turn for the worse

Did my father tell you that

Before his death, my brother told me,

to arrange this with you as soon as I found you

And he wanted me to repay the Weis

If you agree to go with me to Carrinan

I'll offer you US dollar for 3 million

You need medical expenses for treatment

If I can't live to get this money,

donate it to the Orphanage on my behalf

You're going to be all right

How can we go to this lron-Curtain country

They've been inviting consortia to invest,

and we're their distinguished guests

I know nothing about feng shui I need an assistant

Your headaches pills, the doctor orders

Thank you

Why did you look for me

Your money can hire many mercenaries

Your dad assigned the job descendants of the one buried here

And I heard from my brother,

your dad left to a Lo Tableau inside the stone lion at the Nguen house

It's dangerous to go there

It's OK I'm good at kung fu

As early at over 2,000 years ago,

the Chinese had conducted studies on the interrelationship,

between the stellar and human bodies

For instance, the Chinese saying the Cultural Star inspires creative mind,

as the Militant Star directs the generals

And they're comparable to Sagittarius and Libra in Western astrology

Ancient Chinese scholars divided the stars in the universe,

into 28 or more groups,

each group representing a different character

I believe that everything in the universe is affected,

by the sun and by other stellar bodies

The degree of impact varies from person to person

Sir

If by some ways and means we can find a way

to have the stars communicate with mankind,

then it is possible to strengthen human intelligence

Right

In Chinese metaphysics, the study called feng shui or geomancy,

has made the most headway

Feng shui comes from the Yellow River diagram and the River Lo book

Fine, the next class, we'll discuss the "Five Yellows" OK

Go on!

Excuse me, sir

- I'll be happy to tell you next time, - OK, sir

In fact, in the field of geomancy

Only your father is the master

Don't stand on ceremony We're no longer strangers

You're an author

You specialize in Western astrology and Chinese metaphysics

The credit is yours

- What - The credit is yours because,

without your showing me your father's notes

I wouldn't have learned so much

So you're returning me the favor

Wisely, I wish I could help you,

but I'm teaching at UCLA,

and have to prepare every day

Besides, I'm busy with studies to be carried out

You can take your time, but my affair is urgent

Frankly, without the college's intervention

I wouldn't have got my Green Card

And I've recently bought a house at Monterey Park

If I give up my job,

I'll lose everything

It's too noisy here

Yes, excuse me

Sorry, it was only an accident

- Must be wet inside - Let me wipe it for you

OK

Luckily no one got hurt Excuse me

OK

Can you speak English

Excuse me, sir

Iet me get someone to talk to you

What are they doing

Let me go over to take care of them

I'm all right because I didn't drink fruit punch

Fruit Punch

You're a Professor at UCLA Don't fight

- You - He's not a bad guy

Since I put on weight,

I promised not to fight

You're hitting my eyes

Don't move!

You go first You live nearby at Monterey Park

I'll come to you after I fix that

No2

Do you have to tell them even my mom's name

Luckily they don't understand Cantonese

- Monterey Park - Very near

- UCLA - It's easy to locate

Great!

Go now

They're armed Which is the safest place

- Carrinan - Carrinan

Get going

Please

Miss Wong

- I'm Nguen Van Vong - How do you do

My brother Van Bao of Security Section

Nice to see you

The two behind are my assistants

- Protect the guests! - Yes

Follow me

Go, go up

First squad to left, second squad to right

The others go down the water to intercept them

Come on

Go now

Hold on, it's all right

Retire, everybody, the luggage will be ready in a minute

Thank you

How eerie! Much ado for on arrival

Take your seat, please

Sorry,

some trouble-makers are trying to disrupt our economy

Hope this won't undermine your confidence

Mr President will host a party tonight

You're welcome

Salute!

Why are you moping there

Look, what a rare situation

It really is magnificent

The temperature rises when there are Reds

I'm afraid the situation might get tenser

Sir

Miss Wong

Miss Wong, sorry for the poor hospitality

Don't mention it You look beautiful and different today

I made up for my country and you only,

because we need your support,

and you like people in beautiful dresses

You really are smart

Ladies and gentlemen His Excellency the President

Welcome to our country

We've nothing special to serve you in this out-of-the-way corner,

except our sincerity and confidence

We look to you for your support,

to put our economy on the right footing

Once again my salutations to you all

General Nguen, you're not being civil

You might scare off the guests

You're finished!

Go back and change

You're rude speaking with your head down

Raise your head when you speak

Speak while staring at me

You speak too loudly It's ear-splitting

Bastard, you

Shut up!

Your voice's too loud and disgusting

As of now, I'm in charge of this country

Don't turn against me!

You're not up to the scratch

Half of the eight military sectors support me

With such a big gathering here now,

Iet me see which side the 4 commanders and guests are on

Those supporting me go that way

Those supporting the President go this way

Which side shall we take

I don't know

All I know is this position is the best

Look

A lucky position Don't ever leave

Lucky position

Go over

Yes, a lucky position

General Nguen, don't think you'll win

You've no head, and I've been on the guard

I built you up but you turn against me

It means you're betraying the country

To fight against me with your ability

You're heading for defeat

Listen, let's go on with dancing Keep dancing

Brother, how did it happen last night

They've hogged it too long

Now it's my turn

Why didn't you warn me beforehand

Secrecy ensures speedy military action

Are you taking me for a stranger

Sister, brother won't

He wanted to avoid a fight with you

Brother, that's a foolish act

When everything's stable, we must win foreign confidence

With our economy on its legs, we have hopes

Have breakfast with me

You know the consequence of a coup

Of course

I control the country, the whole country

and I do everything at will

No one can go against me,

not even my next of kin

Get out!

Halt!

Van Vong, listen carefully

I don't like to see you behave like that

Try to convince those entrepreneurs

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen

Miss Wong, thanks for your support

You're welcome

If necessary, I'll support you

Thank you

You'll see the life of our military men,

- in the camp in a minute - Good

Let's go

I feel he's acted too rashly

He should've thought it twice

Sometimes there's no choice

Sharp practice is required to achieve goals

For personal gains in spite of anything

What's wrong with brother

He seeks not enjoyment, nor wealth

He's only after power

Power has changed him completely

Forget it,

or you may accuse me of taking his side

Sister, my girlfriend Chan

How do you do

Beautiful Don't get excited

Someday I'll buy you one

I have hunches,

that the President's ancestor wasn't buried here,

and things are in General Nguen's favor

Yes, the sight of him gave me a special feeling

Would you care to get at the truth

A second chance is hard to come by

Thank you,

Iadies and gentlemen, for your support of the new Government

We may not count much in the eyes of other countries,

but I'll lead you to strive forward as of today

We must wipe out all the enemies

We may become a superpower in the near future

What's this

Don't know

Looks like a military construction,

with 5 peaks in the rear, a Conqueror site

Right, this should be it

General Nguen must have found the right direction,

for a military works near the grave

If he succeeds, there'll be war

What's to be done

Return first Go now

Let's go over there

Over there

Cordon off all exits and search everywhere

Don't let them get away

After them

- Go over there and have a look - Yes

You go over there You come with me

We're also fugitives Quiet!

Come out, all of you!

Why did you escape

General, we've been here for over 2 years,

and we've done what you ordered

Now we're longing for a family reunion

Right

- General - On your knees!

Let's geomancers combine to build a lucky house

We never did that before

By dint of our geomancy and your blessing,

it will prosper for sure

General, all your military installations

are based on the eight diagrams

So no countries can beat you

Only if it's built according to the cardinals of River Lo,

this Conqueror Locale

Don't

I didn't escape, they forced me to

I'm staying

Brother, they're my guests

There apparently is a misunderstanding

Why were you with them

Just now we couldn't fall asleep

Be honest!

Speak up

Speak up!

Brother, they all supported you,

in the presidential hall that night

Get up

Van Bao, stop!

Brother, tell him to stop before the truth's known

Now you drop your gun That's an order

Van Vong

Sister, you won't shoot

Van Bao

It's easy to find an abode for living but difficult to locate a burial site

The Tableau and Carapace, their cardinal and ordinals, are not enough

I bet you've overlooked some numerals

It's most important to have one heart and one soul

- Morning - Morning, General Nguen

Miss Wong,

so you're interested in ancient sciences

Miss Nguen

Yes, ancient wisdom is beyond our perception

Science wasn't as advanced as it is now

But they

They're in no way inferior to modern sciences

The astronomical equipment invented a thousand years ago, eg

though innocent of sophisticated computers,

has the same high degree of accuracy

Is mankind progressing or retrogressing

The times keep marching forward, brother

I feel modern sciences is too superficial

Anything that can't be explained is branded as absurd

People claiming that the earth was round centuries ago,

might be called sorcerers and be burnt to death

In fact, the secrets of Heavens and earth,

can never be interpreted by science

So far as the Heaven-earth and earth-man combinations are concerned,

you may move in advance,

if you know the magic and secrets of Heaven

A developing country can't do without modern science

I need your help on something here

General,

these computers can all serve military purposes

We can't sell them without the Defense Department's approval

It will be all right with your help

You may give your full thoughts to it

General,

Iet's meet before making a decision

You must meet before we do then

Come out!

Miss Wong, let's go now

Shut up You go yourself, but stop nagging

it's now apparent the General embraces the same belief as we do

Don't confront him

He's unscrupulous

General Nguen is very sharp

He knows well our intentions

He merely wants your computer's help

You're right He's good at feng shui

He's exploiting my expertise

If helped by good people, he's unstoppable

We must be careful

He's crooked Don't trust

I think he'll surely come us

Mr Chen Chang-ching, go see Gen Nguen with your feng shui kit

Miss Nguen will pick you up at 9 tomorrow

- Get out - Get out

- Go now - Let's talk it over

Why did you dabble in feng shui of all things

Miss Nguen, you may insult me as an individual,

but not feng shui science

It's cheating and you call it science

When modern science can't prove against its existence,

you can't negate it

Stop muttering that nonsense to my brother again

And you've to leave our country in 24 hours,

or I'll blow up your head with one shot

Miss Nguen,

I didn't influence your brother

He was like that before our arrival

It's better to believe than to do without it

Why don't you take me to your father's octogram mountain

Maybe I can change General Nguen's personality then

You have nothing to lose

Get in

Here it is

Miss Nguen

It's not your father's

Can I mix up ancestral graves

There's saying in feng shui

If the grave weed is weak,

it means early death

A grave with verdant and barren grass belongs to an old man

Look, the grass is medium in color and fragile

It belongs to a woman

You swindler,

I've visited it for over 10 years I know better

Look closely That stellar mountain behind,

Iooks like a camel lost in Gobi Desert,

sighing at the moon

As your family is so powerful,

this simply can't be your ancestral burial ground

Frankly, anyone buried here,

will bring family tragedy to posterity

Don't shoot at random

Your shot may not always hit

More nonsense,

and I'll blow you up over here

Miss Nguen, let's stop arguing

Let's carry out an experiment

You want to open the coffin

The geomancers of Kiangsi often examine coffins through a tunnel

But I have another idea

Miss Nguen, this is not an old grave

Look, this coffin is only 4 years old

Miss Nguen, we'd better

- You want to open the coffin - Yes

Don't just shoot, rightly or wrongly

What if your judgement should be wrong,

after digging my ancestral grave

- If it does - What then

At worst I'll let you blow up this

So it really is a woman's grave

Was the last name of your mother Chen

Not my mother, the President's mother

Why did brother have the President's mother buried here

There are two possibilities

One, he was to divert attention so that,

the Nguen graveyard feng shui could be preserved

Two, he buried the lady in a bad grave,

so that the coup is helped by feng shui

He is a topflight geomancer

My father wasn't wrong

The Conqueror would bring forth a despot

What Your father

How could your father know it

His father was your father's good friend

But they split over the Conqueror

His father worked for your father

Your father got killed due to the Conqueror

Then what about your father

He was not involved

Plotters! I read you wrong

Anna Wong, you are under arrest!

- Miss Nguen, let me explain - No more talk

Don't be so impulsive

Don't be impulsive

No rough house please

Sit down I'll explain in detail

- Go with me - Miss Nguen

We mean well

Don't get us wrong

You knew your brother

Just think about that,

what his rule would bring for the country

Brother, I want to talk to you

The President's mother in dad's grave! How

Dad was not buried here

He wanted no cutting off of the Nguen dragon reef

So he build this mock tomb

To facilitate my coup, I buried the lady here

These geomancy things are boring you

1, 3, 8, 3, 5

Why can't it be opened

- lmpossible Try again - Let me try again

The code is 1, 3, 8, 3, 5

It's opened

- What's wrong - The code's wrong

No, it was opened

This safe has two layers

You only opened the first layer

If there's something wrong with the code,

the second layer will remain locked

And if it can't be opened within 60 seconds,

it will explode immediately

You don't have 60 seconds on each opening

It will shorten each time

We don't stand the ghost of a chance then

What an advanced product in such a backward territory

Our Company made it in 1988

Let's use a blowtorch to open it

No, it may explode when the computer senses the heat

Let's use a saw to slice it slowly

The wires inside may break and explode

How disappointing after we got it in the hard way

How disgusting!

I've got an idea Wonder if it will work

Miss Nguen,

I want some steel and reliable technicians

I've got material in small quantities only

And they were engineers before joining us

Good

My idea is to make a replica

Miss Wong, I want to talk to you

This part should be exceptionally alike

Miss Wong, when shall we leave

Let's wait for three more days

If I still fail, despite so much effort

I'll have to leave

Can't you wait even for a few days

When I followed you,

I thought you came to invest,

and to fix an ancestral grave only

I never expected such trouble

You turned against Gen Nguen and stole his safe

No point in my giving away my life for your sake

Right

But they may get hold of you any moment once you leave

Wait for three more days

Then we'll sneak to Thailand and return to LA

No, three more days is hell for me

I don't want to be taken away for burial

Don't go, Jacky!

Don't order me again as of now

Your assets have been swallowed up one way or another

You have nothing, you're finished

Anna

Wisely, you may leave

If you don't call off our deal

I promise payment to you

I still have some ornaments left

In fact, I followed you not for money only

It's better that you're broke now

At least,

I can speak louder to you

General, let me go I've told you everything

Not my fault, they got me involved

General, please let me go, I beg you

Van Bao, take him away since he's so honest

Take him to where he came from

- Yes - Thank you, General

Stop

Van Vong told us to wait for you here

What happened

Your assistant Jacky told General Nguen,

that we'd stolen his safe

- Where's Chang-ching - Van Vong picked her up

What then

Let's go along with his plan You get in

We've found nobody but this safe

1, 3, 8, 3, 5, 10, 6

Up above

Over there After him

This time I really am done for

Don't shoot, mind your own men

Guard the exits to stop anyone getting away

Yes

My buttocks!

- Don't shoot Close in on him slowly - Yes

Follow me

Hurry up

Miss Nguen, I really am grateful to you for this help

Don't mention it

I don't think it's safe staying

You'd better try to get away

Miss Nguen, you can't just leave us behind

Help up to the end Try something

Very hot!

Now let's have an after-dinner chat

US computer tycoon Miss Anna

Mr Chen Chang-ching, an astronomer,

and Wisely of lQ 200

Let's talk about co-operation

Great, you know our background well

Everybody knows, idiot

We're wanted because we stole Gen Nguen's safe

Right

There's nothing for us to co-operate

Anyone refusing to co-operate is our enemy

Sheng, take them all away

Upgo

Hold it Don't put on airs

You won't kill us,

or you wouldn't have asked us to dinner

And killing us is your biggest loss

You know General Nguen is afraid of us

not you

What

Can the few of you blow up the hanging coffins

I can be of much help to you, I believe

General Nguen bases his ambition on his faith

To negate that is better than the use of missiles

And you need cover to seek the grave too

We're running out of time

Tomorrow is the deadline

Once the Tableau is lost, we have no chance

It was my fault to have lost it

Look, your hand's branded with a mark

Yes

Yes, branded

But not on the other side

Right, your bottom was branded too, wasn't it

Come on, let me have a look

Can't be so great a coincidence

It really is on the other side

Enough, it's clear

Confirmed on main peak, 825m over sea level,

facing south

Why don't we act at night

We can't find the grave at night

And today's the deadline

And this is the best hour

Wisely, how's it going

Still not found it Hope we won't run out of time

First blow up the hanging coffin grave

Then to headquarters to blast their house

I've found the broken layer There seems to be a hanging coffin

Be careful

Explode at 1 1 o'clock sharp

Over there, hear it Shoot!

Don't shoot to raise an alarm

If I don't, you'll die for sure

Your military power is not as strong as my brother's

Support Wisely to blow up the grave by every means

Launch a full offensive!

- Launch a full offensive! - Yes

- The third squadron to the left - Yes

- The 6th squadron follow me - Yes

Prepare helicopters

- Brother - You take command here

Lots of guerillas are attacking us

You can't handle a few guerillas

Brother

Captain, where's the General

He's busy How many enemies

Everywhere!

- Let's launch a full counter-attack - Yes

I watched feng shui for General Nguen

He deploys his troops the octogramic way

Weak on the back slope

Judging from the mess, no one must be in command now

Give us some men to attack from behind

I'll spare some men for you

Tseng, send some men to attack from behind

Van Vong, let's go

We can't counter General Nguen's tanks

What now

Any way to stop them

- Lay the mines Come on - Yes

Chang-ching

What now

We're outnumbered Our retreat may be blocked

Yes It would be hell if we don't escape now

Don't worry, let me lead you on the path

Retreat

Escape!

The headquarters is in danger

We can't move forward across mine fields

- Stop moving forward Clear the mines - Yes

Break through!

Watch out! Get down!

Fly over

Why are you going against me

Ask your father and my father

Chang-ching

Captain, all military units have refused to come

What about the tank units

Two were blocked by guerillas The other refused to come

Did you tell him I'm his brother

General Nguen gave orders to spare no one

Escape!

Chang-ching

Van Bao

Van Bao

Van Bao

Look, even thunder's visiting you

You get the mechanisms on I'll hold him off

Wisely

Go away! Quick

- Open up - Come and help quickly!

Wisely

Miss Wong, keep cool

Wisely

You've completely recovered

I got shot on the head,

but stay alived

The bullet split the nerves of the tumor

So the doctor could remove it easily

I'm living on borrowed life

Why didn't you ask me to pick you up

I wanted to give you a surprise

Many things are predestined

If he hadn't gone to Carrinan, he wouldn't have seen General Nguen

Then he wouldn't have been hit on the head

Then his brain would still be in trouble

Right Let's go on a tour

What about a European tour next week

You go ahead I'm going to Carrinan next week

Why

How's your business

Smooth sailing all around

Carrinan comes up with very good terms,

asking me to help develop their computer network

Things of LA is solved
