Chieftain Tamake vs lp Man

lp Man...

The Maori warrior dance originated from the primitive days

when ancient tribes did it to scare away wild animals or invading tribes

The heart plucking and beheading moves are intimidating

Here we go

lp Man...

Ready, go!

Go! Go!

Breaking news... Japan launches attack in Shenyang...

Give me a copy... Here you are...

Breaking news... Japan launches attack in Shenyang

Down with Japan!

Return Manchuria!

Ogasawara-san, in this match there can only be one outcome

You have to win

This budo convention is meant to destroy the self-confidence of the Chinese

as a complement to our military assault

Bear it in mind

You don't represent yourself in tomorrow's match

You represent lmperial Japan

If you lose to the Chinese

You know what to do

Come on, go out and take a look

lp Man...

Folks, I don't deserve such great expectations from you

Master lp, for the country you have to beat the Japanese tomorrow

We can't lose to the Japanese

Down with the Japanese...

Down with Japan...

Down with the invaders...

Return Manchuria...

Down with Japan...

Down with invaders...

Remember the national shame...

Down with Japan...

Down with invaders...

Return Manchuria...

This time, either lp Man or the Japanese has to die

But I don't want to see lp Man killed by the Japanese

He has to die under me

But I don't mind seeing him injured in the semi-final match

Then, should I pour more oil into the fire?

That's enough

It's more than a match to both sides

It's a fight between two countries

lp Man...

Master lp, for you, take it

Master lp, make the country proud Beat the Japanese

Master lp, let me see you to the convention

You have to make the country proud

Thank you, thank you all

Master lp, we are behind you

Do your best

Please

lp Man... Ip Man will win... Ip Man...

This was supposed to be a friendly match

But now it's different

With Japan's invasion of China

And the occupation of Manchuria

Everyone wants me to win

The nature has changed

Whatever the situation

You have to come down safe and sound

Be careful

Master lp

Don't worry

I fight you with the pride of a samurai

It's my honour!

Banzai...

Ip Man...

Ip Man... beat him

Get up

Get up and kill him

Carry on

Master lp, your martial artist spirit is admirable

A match is for exchange among martial arts practitioners

We Chinese will not strike when others are down

Let's carry on

Beat him... come on...

Wing-shing

Kill him

Banzai

I am inferior, I admit defeat

Kill him...

For shame

For shame, you can't admit defeat

For shame...

Ogasawara-san, your martial artistry is an eye-opener

I hope we can be friends

I look forward to future emulation with you

Bravo... Ip Man

Finalist - Ip Ma

Final Four

Deputy Mayor Lam, go for it...

Come on

Bravo...

Come on

Beat him

Bravo...

Finalist - Lam Ching-shan

lp Man, China vs Lam Ching-shan, China

Master lp... great news

The Japanese you defeated committed suicide

I think Ogasawara was forced to commit suicide

No, he said he was fighting with the pride of a samurai

According to the Japanese tradition

A samurai who loses has to commit suicide

He did it of his own free will

Such a tradition shouldn't be encouraged It's too extreme, too cruel

Wing-shing, we shouldn't criticise other peoples

Every people has their unique features and history of development

It's not for us to comprehend

We have to expel invaders

But we should respect other nations and peoples

I don't know martial arts

But I can feel Lam Ching-shan is very brutal and fights to kill

Master lp...

Master lp... you are awesome

You are now a national hero

It's too much for me to bear

You have to bear it whether you like it or not

Have you heard of the saying?

What saying?

Mei Lanfang for Peking opera

Lee Wai-tong for soccer

lp Man for martial arts

Don't laugh

It's said Boss To will come watch your fight with Lam Ching-shan

Breaking news

lp Man's wife has an affair with Deputy Mayor Lam

What?

Let me have a look...

Is that her? Right

She's the woman in the photo

How come?

Master lp, dump this woman

You are a great hero this woman is not for you

Shameless woman

Divorce her, Master lp

Master lp, dump her

It's in the newspaper

You are a great hero, dump her

Right

Don't cry, come on, don't cry

Tsun

I won't take care of your son

What? Why?

Tsun, don't cry... Mom's here... don't cry...

Wing-shing

I never thought he could be this despicable

Don't bother with him

It's not about me

I have brought you shame

I am sorry, I was too careless

Wing-shing, if you say so

I can't forgive myself

Don't be bothered by it

Mr Lam...

Mr Lam, any comments?

Friends of the media

You've made up stories in your newspaper

I can sue you for libel

But I respect the freedom of speech

Hence I am not here to accuse you

I just want to clarify it

Miss Cheung Wing-shing and I have known each other for more than ten years

lp Man and I grew up under the same roof

lp Man had fallen into hard times here in Tianjin, Miss Cheung was pregnant

As their mutual friend

Shouldn't I take care of her?

But why did you give her flowers?

Giving flowers means an affair?

I am here to clarify it

Please report it

To clear lp Man's name To clear Miss Cheung's name

I thank you here

Friends, that's all for today

Please go back, thank you

Let's go

lt'll only complicate it even more

Release photos of me having dinner with her

Good, it'll drive lp Man mad

lp Man has to die

And he has to die in front of the all the people in China

And die in my hands

Come on

This old man, he played one He played knick-knack on my drum...

I'm going out

Wing-shing, you be careful

I mean to practise more

And don't forget the newspaper

This old man, he played two...

I won...

Look, lp Man's wife she cuckolded her husband

How much?

Newspaper... Deputy Mayor Lam prefers pregnant woman

Master lp cuckolded...

Newspaper...

Here you are, give me all the copies

Why? For shame...

You are home

What about the newspaper?

I forgot to buy it

I know you did

I really forgot to do it

In the basket?

Don't read it

That's what worries me

You are already affected by the reports

Don't let them make you unhappy

Come on, show me

Here you are

He means to upset me with this trick

So that he can beat me in the ring

Thank you for your trust

Wing-shing, don't be upset

I don't care if he tries to hurt me

What hurts me is that you are hurt

It shows you love me

It shows how deeply you love me

It's our good fortune

Martial Arts School

lp Man

Good, it's quiet

Here they are, that's the woman

How come they are still together?

For shame

Master lp, divorce her

Pelt her... shameless woman

Master lp, she's not good enough for you

Don't stand by her, divorce her...

Ip Man, don't let others wait, come up here

I am fine

I have seen my share of people

None as thick-skinned as you are

Since my first combat

I have seen all as friendly matches

Including my fight with the Japanese

I was willing to be friends with him

But you, it's beneath me to be friends with you

lp Man, what you've said has insulted our match

Everyone in Tianjin is talking about my affair with lp Man's wife

I can swear

I love Cheung Wing-shing

But I have never crossed the line

You can ask her

lp Man, I am here for one thing only

It's to beat you in front of all the people

lp Man of Wing Chun

Go... go...

Ching-shan, you are not lp Man's par

He's much better than you are

Live with it

You know it? I know business

I speak better English

I know French, Russian

I can dance, I know guns

I beat you in everything

I am a better driver than you are

You don't know politics

What have you done for the revolution?

You only have your martial artistry to show off

Now I am going to beat you in martial artistry

I want Wing-shing to see

Picking you is the biggest mistake of her life

This neck lock

Let me tell you

I bid Tung Chin-pang to send his granddaughter to you

To steal your secret technique

But she's useless She took your side

So I had to kill her

I broke her neck this way

And Wing-sing

Yes, you guessed it

I killed him this way

Now it's your turn

I am going to break your neck in this convention

Wing Chun will be lost forever

You still don't get it

Bravo

lp Man, Wing Chun of China wins

You know why you lost?

You remember what I said in the hospital in front of Wing-sing's body?

If you dare harm Wing-shing

I will not let you off

Now you know

I mean what I said

lp Man...
