Hi, can you iron this for me?

Leave it there.

When can I pick it up?

Tomorrow.

Attention employees of the Enamel Factory...

All of you must re-register with the Textile Factory.

Go to the Textile Factory on Wednesday afternoon to complete the formalities.

The other matters regarding

the takeover of the Enamel Factory will be notified separately.

Fuping's wife wants a blouse made.

She'll come by some day soon.

Don't touch me there!

It tickles!

This side of the house gets no sun.

How can you get over your scabies without sunshine?

When the weather is nicer,

Xiao Jian will carry you outside to get some sunshine.

Machine No. 1 has won the grand prize bonus!

Congratulations!

Hold on a moment...

I pumped 1000 yuan into that machine!

Who's in charge around here?

- Don't make me teach you a lesson! - Didn't you hear me?

What are you looking for?

I'm just looking.

What's your name?

Why do you ask?

What's your name?

None of your business! Just buy whatever you want.

- Don't get me wrong, I just wanted... - Jian Jun, Jian Jun!

Give me a pack of Thin Monkeys.

Three fifty.

Is my ironing ready?

Yes, just a moment...

It needs to be bigger, he's growing fast.

Alright, it'll be ready in two days.

Okay, let's go.

That's not it!

The shirt my brother brought over yesterday.

Textile Factory, Workshops 5 and 6... Please exit by the rear door.

Who are you looking for?

Excuse me, does Song Mingyi live there?

Are you a relative of his?

He sent his uniform to be ironed, and he hasn't picked it up.

Well, he was in a car accident.

Is his family here?

He lives alone.

Do you have a light?

Thanks.

Your Xiao Jian is a good kid.

Xiao Jian has no prospects.

Your kid brother is a graduate!

Don't say that.

Xiao Jian, please make the shoulder pads thinner... it's too hot these days.

No problem.

When will it be ready?

In two days.

Well, I'll leave you to get started on this... Here, take this money.

You don't have to pay.

Take it, take it!

Aren't you trying to run a business? Fuping, shall we go?

Yes, we'd better be going.

Xiao Jian will bring it over when it's ready.

Uncle, we're going now.

Take care!

What do we charge for making a shirt?

Twenty.

So why did she leave only ten?

What have you been doing all day?

Didn't I ask you to bring your dad out for some sun? Where have you been?

Nowhere special.

You'd better go to the Textile Factory in the next day or two.

The Enamel Factory's workers have to re-register.

Don't forget to go!

Remember me?

Yesterday, in the underpass...

Can I help you?

I want to buy a tape.

Choose one.

Which one do you recommend?

How much?

Five yuan.

Who the hell are you?

- I'm from the Enamel Factory. - Enamel Factory? Why are you here?

To register.

Register for what? Who wants you?

- Get out of here! - I was told to come and register.

Who told you?

The Enamel Factory.

Buzz off!

The name isn't here.

This is my father's ID.

Could you check it again?

Listen, I'd like to help you...

But the name really isn't here.

Why don't you check at the re-employment office?

This list came from the Enamel Factory.

Maybe they sent another list there.

Where's the re-employment office?

Turn right at the Factory gate, near the parking shed.

Come out!

Come out!

Get him!

You think you can run away?

Son of a bitch!

It has nothing to do with me!

Pay up! Or you're through!

You asshole! Fucking useless!

You think you can fire us?

I'm here to register!

To register?

Hey! Let him go, I know him!

Who is he?

Master Wang's son.

Then what are you doing here?

I saw some guy running away. Over there!

Really? Go get him!

You can't get away!

Get him!

Stop!

You're just a kid, how old are you?

Your father's sick, what are you doing messing with those guys?

A factory has regulations, a country has laws, a family has rules, right?

Tell them whatever you can! Don't make trouble again!

Think carefully! We're on to you, so you can't just walk away.

Listen kid, you really...

Here, take his file.

Think carefully. Let's have it, who's the ringleader?

What is wrong with you?

What the hell were you doing?

Too proud to speak, are you?

But you led a protest?

Well, did you? Or was it someone else?

Speak! Did you hear what I said?

Unbe-fucking-lievable!

You're just a common hooligan!

You think you can just walk in here and do what you like?

If I don't hear something soon, you can forget about going home.

Tell me, who was the ringleader? Tell me now.

If you don't confess, I'll beat you up!

Did you hear me? Stop pretending!

Get your hands down!

Asshole, I'm talking to you!

Who told you to come here?

Did you hear me?

I'm talking to you! I want to know the truth!

The buns are ready.

Ice Peak lemonade.

One yuan, right?

Ice Peak lemonade.

Are you always out this late?

It's late for you too.

Where do you live?

Shangzhou.

That's quite far from here.

My name is Wang Xiao Jian.

And you?

Zheng Shasha.

Never used to see police around here.

We're improving the traffic control. It's just temporarily.

Where were you based before?

Before... l'm new to the force.

Would you like a snack? My treat.

I'm not hungry.

Mind the car.

That building over there.

Here.

Here.

Slowly, don't break it.

A bit to the left.

No, a bit more to the right.

A bit lower.

A bit to the left.

To the right.

Can you make me one the same as this?

- Sure, it'll be ready in two days. - Alright.

Oh yes, please sew on this label.

On the collar, please.

- Pretty? - It's not bad.

Where did you get it?

- Don't know. - Come on, where did you get it?

I made it myself.

- All by yourself? - Yes!

What's so funny? I really did make it!

- Hey, time's up! Do you want longer? - Yes.

Yes.

Xiao Jian, Xiao Jian!

Didn't the Textile Factory take over the Enamel Factory?

Then this certificate is useless.

- Have a cigarette. - No.

- Who are you? - I'm his son.

- What do you do? - I'm a tailor.

That means you can make a lot of money.

I doubt it.

Okay, we'll let him stay for now

You'll pay later, won't you?

Come here!

Come here!

You want to beat me?

Stay there!

Show me your license.

How many passengers should you carry?

- Twenty. - So how come you have thirty?

I'll be more careful next time.

That's good.

I know it's hard for you... So I'll just fine you 100 yuan.

100...

This is all I've made today.

I don't want that.

Your exhaust emissions must be way over the limit.

It's always been like that.

What's that supposed to mean? 300 yuan fine.

Why are you fining me 300?

Are you arguing?

If you don't pay up, I'll add another hundred.

I don't want your watermelons!

Hell, just pay 100... If you pay me now, it'll save you trouble later.

Who said you could go?

Where are you going?

Into town?

Give me a lift.

Are you free tonight?

Yes.

Then let's go to the East Gate.

I hear it's good fun.

Okay.

I finish at ten.

Then let's meet at East Gate at 10:30.

Okay.

- I have to go now, I'm busy. - Okay.

Good afternoon, comrade.

Was there a policeman here just now?

What about it?

What's your relationship with him?

None at all.

Then why did he come here?

He's on duty around here, so he comes in to buy CDs.

Listen, the traffic department doesn't have a post around here.

Make no mistake...

If you know anything about this man, inform us immediately!

"Green Island looks like..."

"...a boat floating in the moonlight"

"Lover, you're floating in my heart!"

"Let the breeze carry my song..."

"...and blow open your curtains!"

"Let the river carry my love and whisper it endlessly..."

The train is approaching, please stay behind the barrier.

It's late, let's go another time.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

We've come this far...

It's on the way, anyhow.

Okay.

Where do you live? I'll walk you home.

No need to do that.

No, it's late, I'll see you home.

You really don't need to. Go home.

These discs are all faulty! I have the right to return them.

If not, I'll go to the Consumers Association.

Where's your boss? Go get him! I'm not leaving until you exchange them!

How about that?

- Is that your car? - Yes, why?

You can't park there.

- Then where can I park? - Nowhere on this street.

You're a policeman,

these discs are unplayable!

Not my department, I'm in charge of traffic.

I'll leave as soon as she exchanges these faulty discs, okay?

Go now! You want to lose your license?

How come I always run into people like that?

- Aren't you afraid? - Afraid of what?

Afraid that people know about you being a cop...

So what?

You should be on duty.

I'm a patrolman.

Don't lie. Had enough of me? Is that it?

I'm not...

You're not what?

I'm not two-timing you.

Then what is it?

My boss paged me.

Didn't you work the day shift today?

I don't know what happened.

Do you have to go?

Yes, I do... How about meeting again later?

Come over here!

What's the matter?

What's your relationship with the woman?

Which woman?

The one who was with you all evening.

Her?

Nothing.

You'd better squat down.

On your knees!

What did you do?

Nothing at all!

I don't know her.

She's just an escort from the Angel Companion Service.

Smoke?

Don't move!

What's your job?

I sell clothes.

Where do you live?

Machang-zi, not far from here.

I'm telling you, don't bother that woman again!

Now go!

My card...

Get out of here!

I know it wasn't you who broke into the safe.

Think what you're saying! Cooperate!

You heard him?

Be cooperative!

Something happened, and it's our job to sort it out.

Here, have a cigarette and think it over.

Come on, don't be so arrogant!

Have the cigarette and think carefully.

This is a serious matter, so think before you say anything.

Think it over, get it right...

Just tell us who broke into the safe and who led the protest.

We'll also need you to look at a line up, then you can go.

You weren't involved, right?

Are the people all here yet?

Yes, they're waiting outside.

Go down and take a look at them.

Are you ready?

If you're ready, let's go.

Go!

Quick!

We're here to identify suspects.

Stand up!

Which one?

Go.

Kneel down!

Stand here!

Kneel there!

Xiao Jian, come and eat.

Don't wait for me.

You're here!

How's everything?

Not bad.

Sit down.

Don't worry.

Were you alright, the other night?

Fine.

I thought I'd never see you again.

I've been transferred to Ba Bridge.

Oh, that's quite far from here.

I bought a cell phone two days ago. From now on, you can call me.

If there's someone else, tell me frankly.

Hello.

Brother Ma.

I can't make it tonight.

I can't work tonight.

I feel ill.

Enough of the bullshit. Since we're all here, let's have some fun!

I'm hungry, why don't we go to eat?

You haven't done anything yet

and you're already asking for food? There'll be time to eat later.

I have to go, I have things to do.

Go? No way!

What do you want?

- I want to have some fun! - Let go of me!

Playing hard to get?

Come on, you're not naive.

You know why you're here!

Are we practicing Tai Qi?

Don't be so childish!

What's the point?

She's surprisingly strong!

Stop fighting.

Are we through?

Come on.

Come on, if you want to fight more.

Come on, fight more.

I'll see how long you last for.

You have the commitment.

Don't try it again.

Doctor!

What is it?

I'm paying a bill.

No. 32, Wang Youcheng That's 5560 yuan.

Can I pay 1500 now? I'll have the rest soon.

Careful.

We're home at last.

Be careful, sit still.

- Are you comfortable? - Yes.

We agreed on three yuan.

Two should be enough.

It was quite far.

Take another fifty cents. Thank you. Take care.

Why are you still sitting up? Lie down.

No.

Have a lie down, okay?

I slept for so long in the hospital.

Okay, sit for a while if you don't want to sleep.

- Shall I get you some water? - I'm not thirsty.

- Xiao Jian, want a drink? - No.

Xiao Jian's been so tired lately.

Yes, he must be.

- Xiao Jian, come and sit down. - No, no.

The Textile Factory has given you a job in the bathhouse.

It's not demanding.

That's good.

How much do we still owe the hospital?

Don't you worry about that.

Xiao Jian has been doing quite well lately.

Fuping was one of the ones they arrested? Is that right?

He seems so quiet, but he's always getting into trouble.

What's his situation?

It's not that serious, they're investigating.

Wang Xiao Jian, come outside!

Aren't you ashamed to show your face?

You dare to incriminate people?

What has my Fuping done to offend you?

What possessed you?

Some dog tore out your heart?

Let me tell you this, if my Fuping suffers, I'll make you pay!

Hey, what do you want?

Where do you think you're going?

What do you think?

What's going on?

Still shouting. Don't you recognize me?

What the hell are you doing?

You jerk! The balloons aren't ready!

Time's up, are you checking out?

Is this the Angel Companion Service?

Does a girl named Zheng Shasha work for you?

Can I book her?

7:30 this evening, I'll wait for her outside the Jinyang Hotel.

What brings you here?

I was just passing by.

What about you?

I'm waiting for someone.

I tried to find you, and they told me...

I don't work there any more.

Your friend hasn't shown up?

No.

Forget it.

Why don't you keep me company for a while?

Why don't you say something?

Say what?

It's up to you.

Up to me?

I have no idea, it's up to you.

Really?

Then how about karaoke?

Shall we?

Let's stay here a bit longer.

It's nice here.

Come on, let's go. We have nothing else to do anyway.

Sing something for me then.

What do you want to hear?

Up to you.

Seems like "up to you" is all you can say.

Then let's go.

Great.

Shall we go now?

Do you want to get something to eat?

Fine with me.

Do you have a cigarette?

- I'll go buy some, wait here. - Hurry!

A pack of Thin Monkeys.

Three fifty.

Which station are you from?

Beilin Squad.

Show us your ID.

You're from Beilin Squad?

Who are you kidding? Squat down!

Squat down here!

Give me a pack of cigs.

I knew you were a fake the moment I saw you.

Three fifty.

- Hey, do you have any change? - How much?

Hey, stop! How dare you run away?

Freeze!
