Hong Kong Pier

60 cents a day, $18 a month

I bought you with $100

You have to work 5 months and 17 days to pay me back

Don't even dream about it

You have to pay me interest, it's 10% a day

You have to pay me a dollar the first day as interest

But you can only pay me 60 cents

It means you owe me $100.40

You owe me $100.84 the second day

The third day... the abacus is too small for the math

Anyway, your debt keeps growing

You've heard the stories of the bird trying to fill up the sea

And the old man removing the mountain?

They stand a greater chance of success than you paying your debt

Fat Leung seems like a good person But what is he up to?

Chun-loi, it really is you?

You are not dead! It's great!

Chun-loi...

Chun-loi...

What are you doing?

You said you killed a man named Yim Chun-loi, right?

No, I was just dreaming

You know Wing Chun?

You killed Yim Chun-loi with Wing Chun?

Don't you deny it

I saw you using the Goat Clamping stance

You won't tell? I won't bother to hear it

Get up and go to work

Foshan Yan Wo Hospital

If that old man suspects the body isn't Yim Chun-loi, kill him

Got it

Wing-shing, you went for the identification

It really is Yim Chun-loi?

Yes, it's him

My son... my son... my son is dead

My son is dead...

Master, why are you kneeling here? Master...

Master Yim, I have a request...

Master, get up first...

If you won't say "yes", I won't get up

Master, get up...

Master Yim, please say "yes"

I too beg you on my knees

Auntie...

Lady, what are you doing?

Please get up...

I swear to heaven

If lp Man killed Chun-loi in a fight

Then I am responsible too

I'll kill myself to pay for my sin

No, Master

It's not lp Man, it could never be him Master... Master

If it's not lp Man, then I'll spend the rest of my life looking for his murderer

And lp Man would be your adopted son

He'd take care of you for the rest of your life

Master...

Master Yim, please say "yes"

Master, please...

Lady, please, get up

Please say "yes", Master Yim, please

Please get up

You are not worried they might join hands and file a lawsuit against you?

I dare them

Who in Foshan has the nerve to go against you?

Unless they have a death wish

I know what you mean

You won't let lp Man off

Of course, I will find him

I am not done with him yet

I am on your side

We each will get what we want

You give lp Man hell

And I'll get the lp family fortune

Cheers Cheers

Fung Yee Lung

Fung Yee Lung has a traitor

Who is he?

Take it easy, since I set up Fung Yee Lung decades ago

No one could take the pier away from me

Some 7 or 8 gangs were fighting for this turf back then

It's like the Warring States period

But you brethren stood by me

You had to work in the daytime And fight for the turf at night

Others thought we wouldn't last long

No one would have thought

The least powerful would make it

We put the name Fung Yee Lung on the pier

But now we are faced with a crisis

No blood will be shed but it's even more dangerous

I thought the days of fighting were behind us, we could live in peace

But the times have changed

The battlefield now is the business world ...ruthless, kills without blood shed

Money is even more lethal

The Englishman Ettenberg wants our pier

But we can't let him have his way

Help me... you have to help me

Fat Leung, I have been waiting for the whole day, where's my pay?

We can talk it over

Get lost! Who are you to speak here?

Fat Leung asked me to come

Fat Leung, what's going on?

You don't get your pay It's not my fault

I am just the bookkeeper

I don't call the shots

You don't call the shots?

If you don't pay us, we won't work

Yes, we won't work...

Calm down... You don't get paid

It's Master Hung's idea

It's not for me to say anything

You should go to Master Hung

Hey, don't throw Master Hung at us

I've been working for Master Hung since I was 18

He's never mean to his men

I am sure you have been fleecing us

Beat him up

Beat him...

Beat him hard

No... hey... stop it... get out

Let me tell you

You've missed the shipments many times

Master Hung wants to settle the score with you

What blathering

You are blathering

Come again

Cheung Mang, what are you doing here?

Master Hung says I'm calling the shots here at this pier from today on

Let Master Hung tell me himself

If it really is his decision Then I'll shut up

Drop dead!

Monkeys... carry on...

Come on...

Li Sam is in collusion with Ettenberg He is taking on Master Hung

Stop it...

Li Sam, Master Hung wants me to tell you

Either you disappear from the pier right away

Or he will make you, dead or alive

Yeah...

What is going on?

Li Sam may look vicious

But he's just faking it

He'll slip away

Everyone in the Chinese community gives Master Hung wide berth

Four Point Horse stance

Chasing stance... it's chasing stance

We can talk it over

Don't let the foreigners look down on us

Young man, you have a death wish?

Brethren, charge

Halt

Leave this brother alone

Brother, thank you

You'll see

Brothers, for Master Hung's sake

See yourself out Go, go

Brothers, hear me out

From today on, I call the shots at this pier

Master Hung has given his word

You will get paid tomorrow

Bravo...

Who gave you the nod to cause trouble here?

Let me answer you

Please don't blame them

It's Master Hung's idea

You'll be responsible for any delays

Li Sam colluded with Ettenberg to cause the delays

Now Cheung Mang is in charge It won't happen again

Are you sure?

Of course, trust me

You have my word

You can go, goodbye, bye bye

Bye bye

Brothers, now go to work

Let's go to work

It's alright now

Miser

Sangyuan Workshop

What happened?

We've been conned

The machine we got is junk

We've been conned

Auntie Auntie

Pay us back...

Uncle and Auntie are not well

Could you come a few days later?

The lp family is going broke Just cut it out

Clean up the mess and repay our loss

Then they can go recuperate Indeed

Gentlemen, I really am sorry

We are not here for your apologies Repay us

Repay us...

Gentlemen, hear me out

Not a moment too soon, Lam Ching-shan

You talked us into this industrialisation

Now we've ended up in a mess You tell us what to do

Please hear me out

Industrialisation is the right direction

I still stand by it

Things have taken this turn but it may not be as bad as it seems

Just have patience

Talking about loss

The lp family is the hardest hit

When we first joined hands in investing in the plant

You did it out of your own free will

Give me some time

Let me check it out with the comprador

You will be repaid

Give us time

Rest assured that even if we have to sell our estate

we'll pay you back for your investment

Pay up...

Give way...

You the lp family have a poor memory?

You have forgotten you have borrowed from me?

You are tardy in repayment

What are you talking about?

What am I talking about?

You ask her What?

I borrowed from the loan shark

Loan shark?

Pay us back first... pay us...

Ching-shan said I shoulder order for silk cocoons first

Or the machinery will be left idle when it's delivered

He also said...

You guys want them dead?

What good does it do you if they are dead?

I don't care, if they can't pay up

I'll take their things

I dare you

We owe you, we'll pay you

Not a cent less

Just give me time

I guarantee you will be paid in full

If Miss Cheung said so we'll give them some time

So we won't get paid today, let's go

Wing-shing, Milady, what to do?

Lp's Mansion

What you just said

Others may think you are already an lp

What situation are we in?

I can't care less what others think

Someone cares

Ching-shan, lp Man had qualms before

Now his qualms have been proved to be right

What do you mean?

You suspect me or lp Man suspected me?

We don't mean to, but... we can't help it

The machinery that's useless

And your relationship with Ng Pak-lam

Wing-shing, you are insulting me

You are hurting me, do you know it?

Then explain yourself

About what? I owe no one an explanation

This is my home too, I grew up here

Why did I go study abroad?

So that I could come back and use what I learned

For the betterment of my family and the people here

This is what I've been working for or what else am I after?

No, you are not seeing me as a beast that will harm his kin, are you?

Ching-shan, I...

Cut it out, I don't blame you

I just blame myself for being too idealistic

I trust others too easily

When I was in Canton

I meant to steer Marshal Chu onto the revolutionary road

Later I found out that he was using me

Now in Foshan, I hoped to implement industrialisation through Ng Pak-lam

I thought I could use Foshan as a start and then spread it nationwide

But I got conned by the westerners

You know how hard hit I was by one failure after another?

But I won't admit defeat

The failures will only toughen me

When Mr Sun Yat-sen first called for revolution

He too met one failure after another

But he persevered and he finally succeeded

Why?

Because he has set the right target

Yes, he has set the right target

I too will persevere

I too see that my target is right

And I will persevere and won't change

My only regret is that no one understands me

You are not my par

You two have not eaten yet

Let me ask the kitchen to prepare you dinner

Don't bother, I don't have the appetite

Wing-shing, why don't you leave Foshan for the time being?

If we can't pay up

Those people are not easy to deal with

Auntie, don't worry, I am working on it

Master... Mr Cheung is here

Ask him in Yes

Wing-shing, you asked Yam-tong to come?

No, but I knew he would come

Mr lp Brother Yam-tong

Mrs lp Uncle

Wing-shing, how come you knew I would come?

You see eye to eye with lp Man

I knew when you got the letter You would come

lp Man?

The ideas and qualms written in the letter came from lp Man

What letter?

Half a month ago I got a letter from Wing-shing

In it, she raised some qualms

I too find things problematic after reading the letter

Hence I am here to check things out

But the points of concern have already been proved valid

But you have nothing to worry about

You have been working for the betterment of the country

I too have vouchsafed for it

Now that some accidents have happened

I can't wash my hands over it

I'll help you repay the money owed

But...

Auntie...

Mr Cheung, not a moment too soon

The money we invested in the lp family is the lifesavings of a dozen men

You have to repay us first

No, mine first, its $20,000 plus interest

Mine first... we have been waiting for a long time...

Auntie Milady

Be quiet, shut up

We won't owe you a cent, take your turn

Mine is $5000

$30,000 here, pay me first

Mrs lp, take it easy

Brother lp and I have done the math

I can help keep your ancestral house and daily expenses

But to clear all the debts

The Sangyuan workshop has to go

It has been our family business for generations

But now I have lost it

I have done no evil things

Master and I have been working hard on it

Now we are in this state

What have we done wrong?

How smart

You are a different person

How smart, how good-looking

Let me have a look

As it is said, clothes make the man

Now you are in a suit You look totally different

Look into the mirror and at yourself

You are different

It fits you

What?

I can't afford it

You don't have to pay for it I am buying it for you

Boss

Boss, I want this suit

But you give me a discount

It's very reasonable already

Come on, you want us to be your return customers

Just say "yes"

It really can't be done

We'll come again

Why are you taking it off?

I don't like to get a gift for no reasons at all

Let me tell you

You'll have to earn it

You wear it to pick up someone from the pier

Who?

This lady

What's her name?

Please give me a glass of whisky

Wow, you're so beautiful, Jenny

What a pity the journey is so short

Yes, Peter, when we are in Hong Kong

What will you do?

Me? I've come to Hong Kong from England

I am here to work, I am a doctor

You can feel my heart No... slow down Jenny

Please, listen to me

Peter, you and I... marry

No... this is not the right time and place to talk about marriage

Peter... I love you

They want a girl with blonde hair blue eyes and white skin

You don't have these

Peter

Who can help me to translate?

Is there anybody going to help?

Peter

Nobody

Well, look, I'll go to ask my grandma at home

And if she's OK with it

I will come back

You don't move

Peter... I love you

Peter...

Here... this way... It's been a while...

Peter...

Peter... come out

Peter, come out

Or I'll kill myself

Miss... is this you? Come out... Peter, come out

Miss Peter

Miss, I am...

He's so heartless

You alright? What are you doing?

I have taken poison to kill myself

I am dying Take me to hospital...

Hospital?

Is there a hospital nearby?

There's a company clinic over there

I am not going to a clinic I want to go to the Peak Hospital

But it is far away, you can't make it

If I am going to die, I have to die there

Hey, how to go to the Peak Hospital?

Walk straight ahead for half an hour

Alright, come on

Title deeds... where are you?

No deeds...

Deeds...

An heir keeping a low profile

Here you are

Let me see how many houses you have

I am going to be rich...

Wing-shing...

What does it mean?

Mental

Where are the title deeds?

Rascal Fat Leung, you fooled me?

Hey, help...

Halt, no Chinese allowed

It's about a life, how can you be so heartless?

Go away...

We'll go somewhere else

No, I am dying

Only they have the cure for it

Halt...

Hey, stop...
