Original subtitles

The late Qing Dynasty: Foreign powers dominated China's key cities

and mocked the once great nation by declaring it the "Weak Man of the East."

ln Shanghai, the Foreign Chamber of Commerce created a contest

that pitted their four greatest fighters against the best China had to offer.

Their goal was to spectacularly humiliate the Chinese.

One man rose to the challenge.

His fate inspired a nation for decades to come.

His name was Huo Yuanjia.

Shanghai, 1910

(DRUMS BEATlNG)

My lords, ladies and gentlemen, today's competition will be

The competitors are Tanaka from Japan

Tianjin, Huo's home, 30 years ago.

(GASPS)

Young Master, we must leave.

(ALL EXCLAlMlNG)

Stop!

How dare you!

Who gave you permission to come in?

l am bringing you tea.

How many times have l said you are not allowed in here?

Go practise your calligraphy.

Go on.

(EXCLAlMlNG)

l do your homework everyday.

You'd be in trouble if your father knew.

Don't say anything, and no one will know.

Come. l want to show you something.

-Nong Jinsun, come on! -l'm coming!

WOMAN: Look, they're fighting again.

(CROWD EXCLAlMlNG)

Today's match is between Huo Engdi of the Huo Clan

and Zhao Zhongqiang of the Zhao Clan.

Why are you two here? Looking for trouble?

Your father will lose today.

Our Huo wushu will beat your Zhao wushu. You wait and see.

The death waiver has been signed.

Win or lose, it's up to you.

Live or die, it's up to God.

Gentlemen, let the contest begin!

Zhao, now your father has tasted Huo wushu!

(GASPlNG)

The winner is

Zhao Zhongqiang!

Thank you!

Yuanjia, let's go home.

Yuanjia, come on. Let's go home.

Look who's here.

Has the cat got your tongue? Don't be a wuss.

Act like a man. Get up!

-Zhao, you've gone too far! -You shut up!

You're worthless.

Your Huo wushu is even more worthless.

Fight me if you dare.

Then you'll know Zhao wushu.

Get up there!

(EXCLAlMlNG)

(SCREAMlNG lN PAlN)

Yuanjia, stop!

Stop!

Now that you've had a taste of my wushu, you can shut up about yours.

Yuanjia. Get up, Yuanjia.

Yuanjia, let's get out of here.

l, Huo Yuanjia,

swear never to be defeated again!

On your knees.

You're fighting again?

You don't study.

All you do is cause trouble.

-Lai. -Yes.

-Bring the whip. -Yes.

He's already hurt.

There is no need to beat him again.

Master.

Lai, take him to his room.

Go write Confucius' doctrine 10 times.

l want it before dinner. Understood?

Yes.

Young Master, let me put some medicine on it.

Lai, you may leave.

Yes.

Why are you upset?

Mother, why doesn't Father teach me wushu?

Because Father cares about you.

You have asthma.

The training is too much for you.

But it can make me strong.

You want to learn it just to be strong?

When l'm good enough, l'll take revenge.

l want Zhao to feel our Huo wushu.

My child,

wushu is not about winning.

lt's about discipline

and self-restraint.

One practises wushu for inner strength and to help the weak.

Wushu is not for revenge.

ln order for others to respect you,

you must first learn how to respect others.

lf l'm really good, everyone will fear me.

Fear and respect are two different things.

Now, do your penance.

Don't make your father angry.

(EXCLAlMlNG)

l won!

Fly! Fly!

You're falling down, falling.

-You're falling down, falling. -l'm not falling.

-l'm not falling. -Then Father knocks you down.

l'm not falling down.

Faster.

Be careful with her.

(JADE GlGGLlNG)

Good morning, Mother.

Yuanjia, you didn't take your medicine again.

Mother, since l began training, my asthma has gone.

Look at your daughter.

You've spoiled her since her mother died.

Your daughter needs a mother.

You should marry again.

Mother, l am too busy building up the family reputation.

Soon, everyone in Tianjin will respect the Huo name.

There's no time for marriage.

Father, l want to go to see your fight.

All these years, you haven't lost once.

You are your most formidable enemy.

Your biggest challenge is to win over yourself.

l understand.

Challenge Letter

Young Master.

Oh, yes.

Mother, why not go take a rest?

Father,

your fist wasn't fast enough,

and your heart wasn't hard enough.

Rest assured, as long as l live,

the Huo clan will never lose again.

-Congratulations! -Master Huo, congratulations!

Thanks, thanks.

Come on, drink up.

Jinsun, your restaurant is more popular than ever.

Thanks to all my friends, it's getting by.

When we were young, you were such a nerd.

Who could imagine you'd become such a great businessman?

No one will pay me to read books all day,

but being a businessman?

lt's a living.

Yuanjia, you must try these.

l've recruited the best chefs from across the country.

Have a taste. Tell me what you think.

Come, come, eat!

Master, after you.

-l'm Xia Xiang. -l'm Xu Dashan.

Please take us as your disciples.

We want to learn wushu, and we'll devote ourselves to you.

Good. You look tough enough.

Give them drinks.

Bottoms up and we'll all be brothers.

Cheers!

Master Huo, congratulations!

(ALL CHEERlNG)

Tonight is a joyous occasion. Everything's on me.

Enjoy! Have a seat!

lt's time for bed.

Go tuck her in.

Miss, it's time for bed.

Be a good girl. Come on.

lt's bedtime. Come on.

-What is this? lt tastes horrible! -lt's called coffee.

A Western thing. Not used to it, are you?

These are turbulent times.

Our country has grown weak.

The West is dominating us.

People like me must not be concerned only with money.

People like you should not be concerned only with fighting.

Our country deserves better.

Politics is for intellectuals.

Being the champion of Tianjin is all l care about.

lt's that important to you?

Come. Let me show you something.

You've only watched from below.

Now you're standing up here.

Do you feel the difference?

What difference?

When you are down there,

life and death up here have nothing to do with you.

lt's all entertainment.

But when you are up here, you have to win.

Losing is not an option.

But you can choose not to be here.

Jinsun, listen.

To what?

l don't hear anything.

l can hear.

(CROWD CHEERlNG AND SHOUTlNG)

Huo Yuanjia is champion of the world!

Here comes my Head of lron!

(BONES CRACKlNG)

Thanks a lot.

That's great!

This is taking too long.

Get everyone who has signed a waiver to come up at once.

All you challengers, get up there!

Huo Yuanjia, when will you be champion of Tianjin?

What do you think?

Today! lt'll be today!

What's the matter?

We seek to be your disciples and devote ourselves to you.

Fine, you may join.

-A round for everyone. -Come on, give them drinks!

Master Huo, you're great!

Bottoms up and we'll all be brothers!

Come on, come on.

Master Huo, congratulations!

See you. Have a good day.

Let's toast.

Master Huo's bills are long overdue.

lt's okay.

A toast!

Bring a bigger jug!

You're not drinking? Now you must drink two more!

You have not fought my godfather, Master Chin.

Yuanjia,

you've won 38 fights in a row

and defeated every fighter in Tianjin. There's no one left.

No, you're wrong. There's still one left to beat.

So you're not going to stop?

l have to fight in order to be the true champion of Tianjin.

What about elsewhere?

Beijing, Guangdong, Hunan?

When will you stop?

l know what you're saying.

l cannot stop now. l can only keep on fighting.

l need to prove that l am the best, the strongest.

For what?

Yuanjia,

l think you need to take a break and reconsider.

What's this?

These are bills from this month's drinking and eating with your disciples.

l'll take care of it.

Of all your freeloading friends and so-called disciples,

only a couple are true brothers to you.

ln Jianhu, this is called brotherhood.

Brother...

Fine.

l will settle the bills tomorrow.

Yuanjia, l am not here for your money.

Friends should be sincere. Disciples should be loyal.

Judge them by their integrity, not by their drinking.

(CROWD CHATTERlNG)

Good morning, Master Huo!

Good morning, Master Chin!

Aren't you the self-proclaimed champion of Tianjin?

What a coincidence.

Master Chin, it's been a long time.

At your age, l thought you'd retired.

So many new disciples want to join my school,

l couldn't retire even if l wanted to.

ls that so?

Congratulations on the purchase of a coffin for your retirement.

You're too kind.

Actually, this is my gift to you.

Your master needs help.

(LAUGHlNG)

Master Chin, this way, please.

Young Master,

the income of the wushu school barely covers the household overhead.

The expenses incurred by your disciples are getting bigger and bigger.

What about the household reserve?

lt's been depleted for three months.

Depleted?

Master! Master!

How many times have l told you to hone your skills?

No one listens.

Who did this?

Master Chin.

Master.

Master.

Tonight, we celebrate Master Chin's birthday,

wishing Master Chin a long and prosperous life.

Terrific!

Godfather,

we wish you good fortune and great health.

Great!

Master Huo, today's my godfather's birthday.

These tables are reserved.

As a favour to me, please drink somewhere else.

Please do me a favour.

You don't qualify to speak to me.

l'm not in the mood to fight on my birthday.

Maybe some other time.

As a master, you should be ashamed of yourself.

You injured my disciple.

l'm here to settle the score.

What do you want?

Here is my signature. Sign yours if you dare.

Otherwise, kneel down and apologise.

Let me through. Yuanjia!

You've crossed the line.

Let's not do this in front of all the guests.

My disciple is hurt. l must do something.

l don't care what happened, you mustn't spoil their celebration.

l'm not here to spoil anything.

-Yuanjia. -You're afraid l might trash your place?

l'll pay for all damages.

l can't believe you just said that.

You should go.

Forget that we've ever been friends.

You're asking me to leave?

You're willing to throw away our friendship?

My sword seeks vengeance.

Everybody out!

Stay at your own peril.

Young Master, please forgive me.

l did my best

to keep everything the way it was for you to return home.

lt must have been very hard for you.

l'm sorry for not doing better.

After you left, the creditors came every day,

tearing this place apart.

The house was almost foreclosed.

We would have lost everything,

but someone sent money.

l later realised

it was your good friend, Mr Nong Jinsun.

l don't need these any more.

Neither do my parents.

Father, please forgive me.

I've finally realised

why you held back the last blow.

You are the true champion of Tianjin.

Mother,

you taught me how to be a good person.

I was too arrogant to understand.

Rest assured, I will not disappoint you again.

My dear Jade,

l didn't take good care of you.

You suffered because of me.

l was not a good father.

Get out of here, you filthy scum!

You come here with no money?

l'll beat you if l ever see you again.

Get off the premises at once!

Master!

-Master. Master, forgive us. -Forgive us.

l studied wushu with you all my life.

l know no other way of making a living.

The foreigners are in control of Tianjin now. We have no jobs.

Huo Yuanjia ls Starting the Jingwu Sports Federation

-(lN ENGLlSH) Thank you once again. -Thank you.

(lN CHlNESE) Master, you've received a dinner invitation.

l didn't know the invitation was from you.

When did you come to Shanghai?

Your friendship is important to me.

Very important.

Come, have a seat, Yuanjia.

Here, your favourite wine.

-What's the matter? -l've stopped drinking.

-A long time ago. -But you used to love to drink.

l've learnt from my mistakes.

That's wonderful.

Let's have tea instead.

Yuanjia.

Your victory gained respect for all Chinese people.

The foreigners have bullied us for too long.

Someone should stand up to them.

Why do foreigners look down on us?

Because we're not united.

lt's a fact. For years, we fought, Chinese against Chinese.

That's why the West belittles us.

"Weak men of the East," what an insult!

But that isn't the worst of it.

Some of us don't even realise how sick the country is.

You really understand what's going on.

Jinsun, when do you return to Tianjin?

l'm going to stay here in Shanghai.

What about your restaurant?

-l sold it. -What?

But it was so profitable.

The Jingwu Sports Federation needs start-up funds.

But the restaurant has been your life.

My restaurant means little compared to your vision.

Yuanjia, l don't know wushu,

but l do know how to help.

l hope it will be enough.

Jingwu Sports Federation

As we've discussed, the Jingwu Federation handbook.

Take a look.

"The Jingwu motto has three parts:

"body, mind and soul.

"Wushu is a way to cultivate one's body, mind and soul.

"All wushu disciplines are respected equally.

"By working together,

"we can better ourselves

"and stand strong as one nation. "

We influence others

through cooperation, not intimidation.

Through this ideal, we will always stand strong!

Ready?

(IN ENGLlSH) Well, gentlemen, it's too rich for me.

l only bet on sure things.

Then perhaps you'd be interested in joining our little wager

against this Yuanjia fellow.

l've suggested a competition of four matches

between our countries' best against him.

We beat him and leave the Chinese with nothing to brag about.

Mita, you are certain Yuanjia will lose?

With what l have in mind, our victory is guaranteed.

(CHlLDREN LAUGHlNG)

Yuanjia.

One of the Japanese contestants,

Tanaka, wishes to meet you.

l hear he remains undefeated.

Good, one can always learn from the best.

Yuanjia, l suspect that the Foreign Chamber of Commerce

might have a hidden agenda.

How can they set up a four-against-one contest?

l suspect it is an attempt to humiliate us

and undermine the Jingwu Sports Federation in Shanghai.

You're right.

Four against one is unfair, and l have to win every match.

Yet who is to guarantee that everything in life is fair?

For the sake of the Federation,

l have no other choice.

What if...

Jinsun, there's something l want to ask you.

What is it?

After the contest, l need you to run the Federation.

Why?

l want to visit Moon and Grandma.

l promised Moon l would return.

Do you know anything about teas, Mr Huo?

l don't really want to know because l don't like categories.

Tea is tea.

Each has its own characteristics, hence different grades.

What's the purpose of grading?

All teas are grown in nature with little discernable differences.

Once you learn, you can tell the difference.

Maybe you're right.

The way l see it,

the tea is not in a position to judge itself.

We should let people be the judge of the tea.

As for me, l don't want to do that.

Why not?

When you are in a good mood,

the grade of the tea does not matter.

l've never seen it that way.

Even with the various wushu styles, you still claim

that no one style is superior to the others?

That's what l believe.

Then l have another question.

lf no particular style is superior,

why have so many competitions?

l believe it is impossible to claim the superiority of one style over another.

lt's just that the people who practise them have different skill levels.

Competitions can help us uncover our weaknesses

and discover that we are our own true enemy.

Mr Huo, your words are poignant.

-Please enjoy. -Thank you.

The fourth and final contest will now begin.

ln this round, Tanaka of Japan will fight

Huo Yuanjia of China's Jingwu Sports Federation.

(lN JAPANESE) This is unfair.

Four against one?

You never told me.

Both the Chamber of Commerce and the Federation agreed.

Don't be concerned.

This is not a competition.

This is murder.

Tanaka, you're overreacting.

Huo Yuanjia has fought the best fighters from around the world

and has won every time. He agreed to the rules.

Mr Mita,

what's your deal?

ls this really for Japan's national pride? Or did you place a large bet?

To compete is to win.

(lN CHlNESE) Begin!

Master Huo, this is an unfair contest.

lf you wish to fight at some other time,

it would be fine with me.

l appreciate your thoughtfulness.

We started the fight. Let's finish it.

Please.

Begin!

(LAUGHlNG) Great! That's great!

(CROWD EXCLAlMlNG)

(BELL DlNGlNG)

This round is even.

The next round will be a fistfight.

Please prepare.

(lN JAPANESE) What are you doing, Tanaka?

-What's going on? -What is he doing?

(BELL DlNGlNG)

-Yuanjia! -Tanaka!

(lN ENGLlSH) Go now! Go!

(lN CHlNESE) Yuanjia, what happened?

Poison.

Poison?

What Poison?

How did this happen?

-What do you need? -Tea...

Tea!

What's wrong with the tea?

The tea is poisoned, but the evidence is gone.

-Yuanjia, we're going to the hospital. -Too late.

l've exerted too much strength.

The toxin is in my blood.

Master, let me take revenge!

Zhensheng,

we must not take revenge.

Revenge only brings more bloodshed.

That's not what l want.

We must strive to better ourselves.

Yuanjia, forget the competition.

We're going to the hospital. Let's go.

Jinsun,

l'm just a fighter.

lt took me years to understand the true meaning of wushu

and its purpose.

The competition is not over.

One cannot choose

how one's life begins,

but one can choose to face the end with courage.

Master.

(lN JAPANESE) What are you doing? Finish him off!

Why do you say that?

lt's not for you to decide. Whatever it takes, just win.

(lN CHlNESE) Stand strong! Stand strong! Stand strong!

(ALL CHANTlNG)

(lN JAPANESE) You really want to win?

(lN CHlNESE) Let's stop.

lt's not just about me.

lf you want to continue, l won't hold back.
