Wing Chun really lives up to its name

It's a virtuous routine

The moves that killed my granddaughter were vicious

It's my fault

I deserve to be killed

But I want to find out the killer first

Master Tung, if Kim-wan were alive

What she would want to see is not you defeating me

Nor the killer caught

She would want you to become a grandfather others respect

I didn't know my granddaughter

Master lp, I have something to tell you

You don't have to

No, it's very important

Master Tung, I know

Don't you get involved in it

Why didn't you let him finish and see what's behind?

I don't need to I know what he wanted to say

He's here?

Newspaper...

Inauguration of new Deputy Mayor Lam Ching-shan

Give me one Thank you

Newspaper, inauguration of new Deputy Mayor Lam Ching-shan

One for me Thank you

Deputy Mayor Lam, I have something to talk with you

Master Tung, I've taught you everything I could

But you still failed to beat lp Man

You killed my granddaughter

I? Why should I kill her?

I had been thinking Why should you help me?

You made my granddaughter steal lp Man's secret technique

It's for yourself

Master Tung, that's what you think only

You knew Kim-wan meant to tell lp Man the truth

So you killed her

She's just a sixteen-year-old girl

You are too cruel

You are accusing me of murder You first need to have evidence

You have a feud with lp Man

Why did you drag me into it?

How despicable of you

You...

You couldn't beat him and you put the blame on me?

The Gliding Paqua School is the top school in Tianjin

As Head of School, how can you say such shameless things?

Lam Ching-shan, spare me the sophistry

I am here to settle the score with you A life for a life

You mean to fight me?

I know you are quite an adept

But you are not my par

So lp Man has won you over

Yes, I appreciate him

I have decided to let him take part in the International Budo Convention

I lost to him, I'll let him take my place

That means you mean to join force with him to take on me

Yes

It's better for you to die in my hands

lt'd save your face as the deputy mayor

If you go into the ring you will lose to lp Man

Your name will be in tatters

People can tell

Heaven has eyes

Old fool, I don't have the word "defeat" in my dictionary, just "victory"

You can't beat lp Man

Listen to me

Spare yourself the humiliation Don't go into the ring

Alright, let me show you

Old fool, you aren't any better than your granddaughter

You know what kung fu is?

Let me tell you

I am the ultimate adept

I won't let you die so soon

I want you to see my show

The Mukden Incident, 1931

He is prone to cold and fever

How come?

Have you taken more nourishing food during pregnancy?

No

A weak constitution needs fortification

Food is fortification

We understand, thank you

Martial Arts School

A bag of rice for giving me a punch

Whoever can beat me will be accepted into the party

Useless, hide for shame

Go back to practise more

We'll carry on tomorrow

Yes

It seems he's not worried

He still has the mood for teaching

The less he seems to be worried

The better it is for me

I will make him lose big in the ring

So the saying has to change

Instead of Ching-shan has the pen lp Man has the might in China

It should be Ching-shan has the pen and the might in China

Not just in China, but the world

Yes... how ignorant of me

Welcome...

What is it?

Halt

Long live Korea...

Long live Korea, Korea will not succumb

Long live Korea...

Ogasawara san, we'll count on you

International Budo Convention Press Conference

Welcome to the International Budo Convention

Let me introduce the contestants

The Fencer from France

The Monk from Russia

The Boxer from Britain

The Chieftain from New Zealand

The Budo master from Korea

The Kendo master from Japan

You can take pictures

How come the Chinese representative is not here?

Why is he absent?

Lowly martial arts from a lowly people

He's here to make up the number only

He's not qualified to be onstage with us

Then we shouldn't be here

Indeed

Mr Ogasawara, what you've said will be reported

What if you lost to the Chinese?

How would you answer to yourself?

If I lost, I would commit hara-kiri

Chinese martial arts is profound

I know a Mr lp

He's a contestant too

Mr Ogasawara, I do hope you can return home in one piece

The Japanese are just as barbaric as the Chinese

The convention is said to be the final round for the West versus the East

To defeat the mysterious oriental fighting techniques of which the East is so proud

You are here on a mission

How much do you know about the mysterious oriental fighting techniques

Mysterious? What an overstatement

Trust us, we will break their pride

Newspaper... International Budo Convention... ready to go

Master lp... will he win?

Come on, hurry up

Take a good look

Go practise more... Practise real hard!

Whoever can give me two punches A bag of rice for him

Ten punches, 100 US dollars

Just go

lp Man

I am not tired

Go take a rest

Let me continue

I know you are worried

I know you have your reasons for not telling me

But you shouldn't get restless

The old you were not like that

You could always keep your cool

Even in the way you fight

Hence you are lp Man

No one can surpass you no one can imitate you

You have to keep your cool

Just be yourself

Thank you, Wing-shing

I indeed am troubled

During this period in the concession in Tianjin

I had forgotten the past

The reappearance of Lam Ching-shan brought them all back

Like they just happened yesterday

I don't know how my two mentors are doing, where they are

What has happened to Zi and Jenny

Boss, come in... Next time

Boss, come in Leave me alone

Here we are

What? Take your clothes off

Yes

Time for the decoction

Open your mouth, come on

Open your mouth, come on

Open your mouth

You dead? You can't tell it's hot?

Show some response

Zi, we can afford pork now

Don't look at me like that

Except going to bed with men

I know no other way to make money

Yes, I am cheap

But if it hadn't been for me

You would have been dead by the riverside

Your body covered by maggots

You can't stand your woman going to bed with other men?

Then stand up like a man

Get up

Get up now

I can't take it anymore...

Get up... get up...

Zi... you can resign to it?

Aren't you a stray dog?

Get up... go bite people...

Bite those that have wronged you and hurt you, kill them

Look what's written here in the newspaper

lp Man a top martial arts master

Lam Ching-shan now deputy mayor

They are contestants of the International Budo Convention

They are going to fight adepts from all over the world

But you?

I know you resent it

Then get up

Get up... be a real man, get up

You won't get up?

If you won't get up

You'll be cuckolded for life

Get up

Or kill yourself by biting your tongue off

Let me ask you first

You have confidence in this fight?

I will win

Mr Ogasawara, you have confidence in winning?

Mr Ogasawara...

Master lp, you are seen as most promising

Do you have confidence in yourself?

Chinese martial arts is thousands of years old

Winning or losing is never our goal

Combat is for emulation among practitioners

Hence, my participation this time

Is to meet counterparts from other countries

To work for the development of martial arts

What you said sounds like the Olympic spirit

It shows our forefathers saw eye to eye with Greek sages

Master lp, the world is fascinated by the ancient Oriental fighting techniques

Will you introduce Chinese martial arts to the West?

We Chinese have always been generous in sharing our civilisation

Instead of opposing the idea

I welcome foreign friends to join in

People of the West have always said we Chinese think differently

The West and the East are like two worlds

But a true disciple of Chinese martial arts will understand

Thousands of years of wisdom lies therein

I hope Chinese martial arts

will become the bridge between the West and the East

Mr lp, what you've said shows the wisdom of a Chinese martial arts practitioner

Well said... Bravo...

Ladies and gentlemen, I declare the Convention open

Thank you for coming

Thank you

You sure can't wait for the fights to begin

The contestants will soon be here

We'll be dazzled at a marvellous contest

Please welcome the opening with applause

lp Man, how come Wing-shing is not here

She has to look after our son

Congrats

Friends of the media

Master lp and I are fellow townsmen

We are no ordinary acquaintances

Deputy Mayor Lam, fights are dangerous

You are a top government official

Will it be too risky for you?

It's for emulation. Just friendly sparring

Don't worry, I will not be hurt

Let me tell you this

The government is very supportive of my taking part

You don't have to worry about it

I wish you victory!

Thank you

See you in the final match

Don't die too soon
