Original subtitles

You hungry? Let me buy you food

Oh no! I forgot about it

I have something to do, I've gotta go

Where are you going?

Don't you care

How could I have forgotten about it?

Oh yes, you were so captivating when doing your routine

Zi...

Zi...

Zi, I didn't mean to do you in

It's not my fault

I never meant to do you in

I am young, I want to fall in love

I want to become a beauty queen

I want to marry a wealthy man

I didn't mean to do you in

I know I was mean to you

But I didn't hate you a bit

You... Are you living or are you a ghost?

You are not dead, you are still alive

You scared the hell out of me

I have yet to settle the score with you

I pushed you down the well

You were almost drowned

If you want to kill me or hit me, go ahead

Come on

You are blushing again

I am not

You won't hit me

Then what do you want?

Take me to lp Man

Take me to lp Man

Let's go then

lp Man will be overjoyed to see you

Will he?

Of course

He's a wanted man and he meant to flee

But because I said I'd seen you

He took the risk of staying behind

So you have an important place in his heart

He really said so?

Do I look like a liar?

You alright?

Yes, and you?

Fine

That's it?

I thought you are brethren

But this is how you greet each other?

You're a wooden dummy?

A fight?

Yes

You two are mental

You have no more words for each other?

Mental, why are you fighting?

Watch out... harder...

Bravo... go for it

Mentor... something serious at the pier

Master Hung is here...

Master Hung here...

Master Hung... Master Hung...

What are you doing here?

You have no work to do?

Master Hung, you don't know?

You don't know?

What happened?

The Government has a new policy Every pier worker has to pay a poll tax

And there is an insurance charge

Tax and insurance, how much together?

Poll tax is 20% of their pay, insurance 10%

This is exploitation

How can we feed ourselves?

Indeed, so we practically work for free

Ettenberg, there you go again

What should we do?

No worries. We'll follow Master Hung's suit

Don't worry, I'll talk with the government

Now go back to work

What to do? Could Master Hung help us out this time?

Not here yet? No

Keep watching

Mentor, not here yet

Mentor, he's here, but...

What?

Master Hung, don't bother waiting for him

Thompson just talked with me

He has no time to see you

I am here to talk with you in his stead

I have nothing to talk with you

Right, I too would think so if I were you

Insurance, poll tax and Fung Yee Lung's cut

Workers here can't even make a meal after working for a day

Fung Yee Lung has its responsibilities

You pay for goods that fall into the sea

Or missing deadlines

We have done the math for you

You lost the bank loan in my ring

Forgive me for saying so

Why would the workers stick by you?

Listen to me, just let me take over the pier

You mean to steal my pier with dirty tricks

Let me tell you, the pier is ours

No one will listen to you

Try me

Let's see which one they will pick Their livelihood or you

Hung Kau-shan, this time you are doomed

This is my knock-out right hook punch

You will fall flat in the ring You...

Oh yes, one more thing

Your disciple Cheung Mang died in prison last night

Halt

Let's go

Please sit

What do you want?

I want to know your relationship with lp Man

What does it concern you?

It's not what you think

I just want to know if you and lp Man...

We've been to bed

I wonder if you rich ladies are like this

You already have a bird in hand

But you are eyeing another

You want every man to fall in love with you

To the point that they won't marry or look at other women

You can't do it, why expect it from men?

I have been faithful to lp Man

I have always loved him

Thank you

I didn't even blink when a bomb exploded right in front of me

But I am vulnerable when it comes to love

Stop playing the victim card I won't return lp Man to you

He won't marry you, he's not a fickle man

You don't know men

Their oaths are sweet nothings

They can say it to one woman then to another

If you think so, you'll never get true love

Have you got it then?

I believe in lp Man, hence I'll get it

It's funny, it's you who dumped him

That Lam Ching-shan is not bad

Why be so obstinate?

What about this colour?

There are other colours

Well? I told you not to go to her You'll only get hurt

I had to ask her or I wouldn't resign to it

Thank heaven you have been by my side Or I would have been at a loss

Don't worry, Wing-shing, as I said I'll always be there for you

Come on

Delivery

Wing-shing

I don't want your flowers, I don't care

I don't want to see you

Hear me out

You want to know if I have gone to Jenny

What did she say?

Why should you care?

She told me everything between you two

There's nothing between her and me

Nothing? She admitted to everything

About what? What did she say?

Don't ask me, go ask her

Go to your Jenny

Wing-shing

Go ask her... go ask her

Wing-shing...

He's your boyfriend?

When I first met Cheung Mang

He's eleven years old, an orphan making the pier his home

He would bully me back then pulling my pleats and so on

Later I learned that if a boy picks on a girl

It's because he likes her

What about you?

Once I saw him fighting Master Hung's men over a piece of flatbread

He was bloodied and he looked like a mad dog

He terrified me and I couldn't stand him since

He didn't fight for the flatbread

He was fighting to catch Master Hung's attention

What made you think so?

A stray dog knows what other stray dogs think

You talk funny

But you are right

He became Master Hung's man from that time on

Cheung Mang's family

Yes

Cheung Mang's family?

Yes

Come in for identification

Hey

Cheung Man, I never thought I would see you here

I am sorry... I threw the ring you bought me into the ditch

I didn't mean it, I am sorry

His personal effects, you can take it

Jenny, don't cry

Sign for it

Sign for it

You can go now

What are you looking for?

I didn't expect that he wouldn't show up

You mean... Master Hung?

Is Cheung Mang's thing done?

Lp Man, Cheung Mang wrote you this letter

A letter for me?

Welcome, you all listen

What is it?

From today on, I am in charge of the pier

All the businesses belong to my company

Hung Kau-shan lost his pier because he's poor at management

It was a mess here

From today on

You come to work with your token

You get your chip with your token

Then you go to work over there

You come back to collect your pay in the evening

It's a fair arrangement

What? How come? What to do?

Wait What?

Sign it here

But we didn't have to sign for it

It's the new rule, sign for it

I can't write

Then your fingerprint

lp's Mansion

Invitation

Commander invites you to dinner at Tin Heung House this evening

To lp Oi-dor

From Ng Pak-lam

Let me go

Who are you to go?

I am the master of the house I am an lp

It's a setup

Let me be the hero this time

Don't worry

I have a request, set Chan Wah-shun free

Let him go

Commander, Lam Ching-shan said Chan Wah-shun is the bait to get lp Man

Cut it out, do as I say

Yes

Let Chan Wah-shun of Cell One go

Yes

Chan Wah-shun, you can go now

Now just go, come on

lp family, the wealthiest family in Foshan

But you have met such misfortunes

I feel sorry for you

Commander Ng, don't beat around the bush

I am a rough man, I prefer to go straight to the point

I could set Chan Wah-shun free

I too can let lp Man off

It's not such a big deal

Someone else killed Yim Chun-loi

It's left for me to spin

It can all be solved amicably

Commander Ng, get to the point

No much, just the lp's Mansion

What are you snickering at?

I can't find another man more laughable than you are

You are wicked, and the most evil

How dare you

Come on, keep going... keep going...

Get up... and keep going...

Get up and keep going

You are laughable, so laughable

I will give you nothing

Pry it from my cold dead fingers

Master Hung, it's been hard for you... wipe your sweat

Thanks

Have some water

Thanks

You can't even breathe, don't go

You are going to your death

If I don't go, Fung Yee Lung is doomed

If I go, with my experience and track record

I may be able to turn it around

You still take everything upon yourself

No wonder I was smitten by you when I was young

Alright, get me my outfit

Coming

Hey... what did you say?

Words from my heart

What about me?

Why should I care?

You...

You want to marry him?

So?

Look at him, just a routine and he's out of breath

You want to be a widow?

I like it, so?

You... you... let me tell you

He can't win, Fung Yee Lung is over

Believe it or not

Master Hung, put it on

You feel better?

Much better, I am fine

How come it's so slow?

You're rich

Well? How long have you been waiting

An hour already

You won't be able to get the work token

10 cents for one

Brother Sang, you out of your mind?

You make 60 cents a day

10 cents for the token

20% for poll tax and insurance

Then the pier cut

There's only 12 cents left

How can we live on it?

My son is ill

His son is ill, what does it concern you

All tokens gone

10 cents for one... come on

One for me...

Look at you... for shame... Master Hung

Give way

Master Hung...

Ettenberg, don't be so cocky

We are not done yet

Let's have the ultimate bet

I'll go into the ring

Hung Kau-shan, what do you have to bet with me?

The pier is now mine

I can do whatever I like with the workers

They will fight for the work tokens I throw them... just like dogs

Even if I say "yes" You have money for the bet?

Fung Yee Lung brethren are loyal

They'd sell their belongings to help me

You'll get your thumping

Yellow pig, you'll have your humiliation in the ring

Your challenge accepted

I'll make sure you die in the ring

Hey, get up for practice

Practice? It's time for bed

What bed? It's time for practice

Deep into the night when the moon is covered by the clouds

That's the best time for practice

What do you mean?

Chan Wah-shun has not taught you eye training?

He did, be focused, eyes always on your fingers

That's for daytime practice

It's different for nighttime practice

Daytime is for eye exercising

Nighttime is for eye restoration

The key lies in your spirit and your aura

Have you heard of eye attack?

I've read it in books

It means intimidating your opponent with your stare

Not intimidating, it's knocking out

Knocking out? With staring?

Not just knocking out you can even kill with it

My shoulders are sour, come on give me a massage

To kill? To kill with staring?

Look here, practise it and you will understand what I mean

You know, beside training for a good physique

Kung fu also means training your eyes in the daytime and at night

It's very important

When you practise, be focused

Stare straight at the joss stick

Don't blink until the joss stick is burnt

Now try it

Stare straight at the joss stick

At first your eyes would hurt and smart

But you have to persevere

In time the smarting will cease

Bear it in mind

Eyes on the joss stick Like the two become one

Let your power show through your eyes

When our eyes are sharp

Your stares are sharp

Hence the practice should be done at night

It helps you sharpen your eyes and sight

It's conducive to your cultivation

Why are you teaching me?

To save Master Hung

He is going into the ring

He... can't do it

We all know he has asthma

He'll embarrass us in the ring

Actually you care about him

Why should I?

Maybe I am getting on

When you get old, you turn nostalgic

If he's dead I'll have no one to play chess with

I got it

If you have to enhance your prowess in a short time

You have to gain it from actual fights

Bear it in mind, western boxing has it's routine and footwork

It's different from ours

It's not an easy fight

Bear what I said in mind

Do it again

Mind where you are hitting Sorry

Oi-dor... I bought you prescription Let me prepare it for you

Oi-dor...

Oi-dor...

Oi-dor... wake up... Oi-dor...

You said you would keep me company for life

Oi-dor...

Shui...

You scared the hell out of me

Shui, so long as we are together it's already a blessing

Don't say anything

Fung Yee Lung

Master Hung, come on

Alright...

Master Hung, don't you go Let me go in your stead

You can't go

In your condition, you can't even survive the first round

You can't go, you can't yourself in public

It's the Englishman's turf

Even if you win, you can't go away

But we can't afford to lose the match

If no one goes into the ring that day

We Chinese will become a laughingstock

You let me go

You really want to go

Cigarettes...

Want to buy cigarettes?

No, thank you, you are cute

Cigarettes...

Sir, what about a packet of cigarettes?
