Master,
eat something.
People need to eat.
(Soldering area. Assembly area) You'll be hungry if you don't eat.
Besides, I have reheated these a few times today already.
It's fish stew tofu.
You can smell it through the food container.
It smells delicious.
If you don't eat it, it'll get cold.
(Huayan Computer) The quotation for external packing is too high.
It'll get cold if you don't eat it.
Are you listening to a word I say?
I'm talking about this external packing.
I'm asking you to eat!
Pei Qing Hua, I'm not your nanny!
I mean...
Brother San.
I'm your disciple, am I not?
Please, for my sake,
just have one bite.
All right, I'll eat it.
Brother Pei.
Brother Pei, Mr. Tan wants you back to the office for a meeting.
I'll be there.
I have to go now.
Brother San, your Master skipped his meal again?
Come on, pay up.
Fine!
Come on.
Pay up.
Here.
Here!
Technician Pei sure is hardworking.
Since he came here, he has lost a lot of weight.
You don't say.
Don't eat, then.
I'm done with it.
When have I ever been this submissive before?
- I'll give this bucket a... - Brother San.
Yes, Master.
Come to the meeting with me.
Okay.
Bring the food too. I'll eat it in the car.
All right.
Come on, give me back my money.
Give it back. Give it to me.
He'll eat in the car. Did you hear that?
Prepare 20 yuan each.
I'll collect the money when I return.
Master!
(Adapted from the novel, Our Times by Wang Qiang)

Mr. Tan is right. Mid-September is when a new term starts.
There will be many people buying computers.
We must launch the computers before it.
Sure, no problem.
I'll tell them to hurry.
Why is there a pot of flower here?
Jonquils. To relieve uneasiness of mind.
Ms. Tan called yesterday and made the arrangement.
Ms. Tan... Ms...
Brother Pei, don't worry.
I won't tell anyone.
Who's Ms. Tan?
Ms. Tan is...
Why do you care?
You won't know even if I tell you.
Is it your girlfriend?
Stop asking questions.
Have you figured out the cost for the external packing?
If you haven't, be quick about that.
I'll go print something.
Can't you spare me? I haven't slept well for two days.
I need to relieve uneasiness of mind too.
Illinois?
Who's this? She's pretty.
God.
Hello? Technician Pei is not here. Please leave your message.
Is he not there?
Then, who are you?
I'm his disciple.
So you're Yue San.
How did you know me?
Who are you?
I can't tell you that.
You don't know about me, but I know about you.
You must be the missus,
Ms. Tan.
You're pretty good at analyzing things.
No wonder your master always praises you.
My master just went out.
Why don't you call back later?
It's okay. It's the same talking to you.
Missus, I'm at your disposal.
Is your master busy working
and not eating again?
You know him too well.
I had to reheat his meal eight times.
If he does it again,
tell him I told you to do it,
so he must eat.
Understood.
Also,
he grew up by the sea,
but don't give him fish
because he doesn't know how to remove the bones.
All right.
(Linghang. Change disk halfway. Zoom Function)
Where did you go at this hour?
Why are you only back now?
Someone
has forgotten my birthday.
So I can only
buy myself something.
Is it your birthday today?
So what do you think...
What is this?
Guess.
How could I forget such an important day?
It's so beautiful!
A beautiful neck
must wear a necklace.
This must be expensive.
As long as you like it,
I'm willing to spend as much as it takes.
Put this on for me.
"The eyes gazed at my thoughts in a dream."
"No one knows how I feel."
"I envy the pair of mandarin ducks in the pond,
which spend their whole life together."
I never knew you can recite a poem.
I wrote it especially for you.
What do you think?
Do you like your new office?
Tell them if you need anything.
Now, everyone in the company knows
you are the pioneer in this price war.
So everyone will make way for you.
I'm not very particular about anything
as long as I have a place to work.
You're different now.
Besides, in a comfortable office,
you'll be able to work efficiently.
By the way,
I had the HR Department find a secretary for you.
Someone will be in position these two days.
Looks like you want me to get ready quickly.
Or what? The quicker, the better.
The HQ pays great importance to your report.
The Chinese Special Edition has been specially approved.
This has never happened in Jefferson before.
You don't look excited.
This is just the beginning.
If we want to create a stir in the market,
the following publicity and sales strategies
must be kept up in time.
It's too early to be happy.
Abby, oh, Abby.
You can do it.
We're counting on you
for the tasks coming up.
I'll do my best.
How long do you want to delay the project payment?
The employers are now without pay.
Do you know Ping Ping and I
were almost confined at the factory yesterday?
Man, you can't blame me in this matter.
Think about Mr. Zhang from Shanghai,
Mr. Yuan from Xuzhou,
those from Jinan, Taiyuan, and Dalian.
They haven't cleared their payments yet.
It's a total of 20 million yuan.
We can't stop production either.
So I had to take the money for building the new factory
for emergency use.
Don't worry.
After the companies clear their payment,
I'll pay the employees' wages first thing.
(Linghang VCD) Stop fooling around.
Give me a timeline. How long will it take?
Look at you.
Part of the money is on the way.
I'll rush them
to transfer the money to us quickly, okay?
Don't worry. In another month or so.
Mr. Xiao, anger harms your health.
I could hear you from outside.
Eat some fruit to calm down.
I'll give you half a month the most.
Half a month...
I don't need to tell you the importance of the factory.
You're on your own now.
What a temper.
It's really sweet.
Please come in.
Ms. Xie,
how did the external packaging go?
I've contacted the factory.
Mr. Liu said that they had just received
an urgent order from Huayan recently.
They'll have to deliver it by the end of August.
I don't think he can accept ours now.
Contact other factories, then.
As long we can launch our computers in early September.
All right. I'll get to it.
Wait.
Whose urgent order did they accept again?
Huayan.
They want it by the end of August.
Why the rush?
It looks like they're also targeting the school term.
That's not possible.
I've been following this matter.
The latest information I obtained
is that the new model of Huayan
will be on the market after the national day.
"Anchor to the windward."
What does that mean?
It's an idiom in the United States
which means to adopt precautionary measures for success.
Huayan's new model
is likely to be launched in advance.
Tell everyone to have a meeting in the conference room this afternoon.
All right. I'll get to it now.
Looks like
we'll cross each other's paths.
According to our current speculation,
(Jefferson China Co. Ltd.) Huayan also wants to occupy the September market.
Also, they might be a step ahead of us.
So I want to launch our publicity in advance.
The plan in your hand
contains my specific ideas.
Abby,
your idea is a bit ridiculous.
The configurations of a new machine
are strictly confidential before selling.
I never plan to disclose all the information about the new machine.
But to use the special edition as a gimmick
and the price advantage to build the momentum.
That way, we can attract all users to us.
Even if Huayan launches in advance,
we won't fall behind.
I agree with Abby's plan.
If we fall behind,
we'll never be able to catch up with Huayan.
Do it according to your plan.
Make the advertisement first.
(Jefferson Home Computer China Special Edition)
(Meet local needs with the most advanced technology)
(Jefferson Home Computer China Special Edition)
(Conpo Computer)
They advertise before they even have stocks in their hands.
Isn't this a bluff?
Tell me what you guys think.
I think we can just ignore them.
This is a complete bluff.
I don't think it's that simple.
They want to take advantage of their brand
to attract customers' attention.
This is a threat
to our new model.
What about this?
Imagine you're a customer,
between the Jefferson model that costs 11,999 yuan
and Huayan's model that costs 9600 yuan,
which one will you choose?
I'll definitely choose Huayan.
After all, Huayan is 2000 yuan cheaper.
That's right. I'll choose the cheaper one.
I'll choose Jefferson.
Why?
Jefferson always focuses on high-end computers.
Their brand image
and reputation among consumers
are better than ours.
Also, this is the first time
for it to launch such a cheap model.
To many consumers,
it's like getting a bargain.
The two thousand yuan price gap
is still not enough.
Mr. Pei,
how can you praise others and ruin our morale?
Pei has a point.
So we have to lower
our price again.
We must launch even earlier
and get a head start.
This is seven-layered corrugated paper.
It's expensive.
This is three-layered. Cheaper.
Is the three-layered one good enough for protection?
They are almost the same.
But the seven-layered feels good to the touch.
It looks high class too.
The machine is on the production line now.
There's no way to lower the price again.
We can only cut transportation costs, advertising fees,
and packaging now.
How much money can we save on packaging?
It's not much for a single package,
but we have high demands.
Not only carton boxes,
but there are also polystyrene boxes and wrapping papers.
All these combined,
we should be able to save some,
which makes room for pricing.
Call Mr. Liu.
Tell him to replace the packing boxes with ones made of three-layered corrugated paper.
All right.
Also,
ask him
if it is possible to finish earlier than scheduled.
All right.
Hello?
Hello.
Junior, it's me.
Senior?
How are you doing lately?
I've been busy reducing the cost of the new model
that I didn't even have time to call you.
Is everything going smoothly?
I'm happy for you.
What? Is Linghang in trouble?
No, nothing.
No big deal.
Don't worry about it.
If you need my help,
you must tell me.
Don't carry it alone.
Junior,
after I'm done with my work here,
I'll go back to Beijing to visit you, okay?
Or you can visit me in Guangzhou after you're done.
Both of us...
We should meet.
We haven't met for a long time.
After I'm finished with this
and Huayan's new computer is launched,
I'll visit you in Guangzhou.
It's decided, then.
All right. It's decided.
That's all. Bye.
Ping Ping, do you always drive this fast?
Brother Xiao, just believe in my driving skills.
Should it not be this fast?
Brother Xiao, you've changed channels three times.
You're making my eyes blurry.
Let's just watch the news.
Why do you
look sad all night?
What else?
Xie hang has been back for so long.
We only made a few pointless calls.
What do you think it's on her mind?
If you ask me, you should just call her.
Propose to her over the phone.
"Would you marry me?" "I would."
Then, "Marry me." "I love you."
You're all set.
Why bother with the formalities?
Get lost.
A proposal is a memory of a lifetime
for a woman.
I must do it perfectly.
I want to do my best
to give her one unforgettable surprise.
(The well-known Linghang VCD)
(is actually produced in a factory like this.)
(Their huge spending on advertising)
(Nanhai TV) (is in sharp contrast)
(to such a primitive production environment.)
(It reveals)
(that there is a gray area)
(in the booming VCD market, )
(which is unimaginable.)
(Linghang)
Brother Xiao, this is the Chen Village.
It's the Chen Village!
I knew it's bound to go wrong.
What should we do now?
What else?
I'll call Lu first.
I was wrong.
I was wrong, okay?
Tell me what to do, and I'll listen to you.
We must take out all the money we have left.
Now Linghang is in this situation,
the production at the factory must not stop.
The rest will be for the media
to arrange for a press conference.
We must save Linghang's reputation.
We only make this much money over the years.
Are you going to give it all out
and leave none?
Doesn't that mean we have worked for nothing all these years?
You're still thinking about the money when things have come to this?
We can still make money if we have none.
We'll lose everything if our reputation is ruined!
Where there's life, there's hope.
If you ask me, it doesn't matter if the brand is ruined.
As long as we still have money,
we can always make a comeback.
Lu Hai Niu,
if we hadn't been friends for years,
I'd have slapped you for what you said just now.
Come on, here you go.
(Linghang VCD)
No, Brother Xiao.
- Don't stop me! - Brother Xiao, no!
Brother Xiao! Brother Xiao!
Calm down.
Brother Lu,
Brother Xiao built Linghang with his heart and soul.
It's disappointing for you to say that.
Xiao Chuang,
Linghang is yours alone.
Why should I take the risk for you?
Lu Hai Niu,
say that again with your conscience.
I found the business opportunity of VCD.
I developed the machine.
I even named it Linghang!
Yes, you helped me, and I appreciate that.
I let you have the large share,
but I never regretted it!
But now，
I'll make sure anyone who doesn't want Linghang to survive
will just go down with it!
(Linghang VCD) Brother Xiao,
Brother Lu is in charge of the money.
If you go against him,
it won't end well for you.
He's no longer the "Brother Lu" I knew.
Now, he's
no longer on the same side with us.
Even if you think so,
you shouldn't have let him know that.
Brother.
I was too impulsive just now. Really.
In this matter,
I did make a mistake.
I apologize.
I was too hasty just now.
That's it. We're all brothers.
Everything will be fine after we talk about it.
Xiao Chuang, you're right.
Linghang's reputation must not be ruined.
This is our foundation.
We can't let it fall.
Just tell us your plan, we'll do it.
Brother Lu,
we've been friends for years.
Let's survive this crisis,
okay?
Okay.
(Huayan)
Mr. Tan,
I've cut down on transportation,
packaging, and advertising as much as possible.
This is a preliminary estimate.
Please take a look.
We should be able to make room
for about 1000 yuan.
(Transportation expense. Packaging expense. Advertising expenses)
That's great.
Never underestimate the "1000 yuan".
With it,
we can keep
our price advantage.
So
Regardless of their price,
we'll sell at 8688 yuan.
With 8868 yuan,
bring Huayan Tempest home.
Brother Xiao!
What's wrong?
I just fell asleep.
What's wrong?
Stop sleeping, Brother Xiao.
We have problems at the site.
Speak after you drink some water.
The employees were making a scene, saying they'd take the things apart.
Have you contacted Lu?
I have.
He said he's in Shanghai meeting with the retailers.
How much money
has the company left?
Less than a hundred thousand I think.
Take all the money.
We'll meet at the site.
Go now.
Brother Xiao!
Where are the employees?
Where are our things?
(Pay to resume)
Rebar, cement, sand,
all have been taken away.
Even if we don't want to stop, we can only stop now.
I brought the money.
I'll find other contractors.
This money isn't enough to pay their wages.
It'll be a waste of time.
Let's wait for Lu.
The top priority now
is to hold a press conference.
We must suppress the negative news.
Did you have proper meals
and rest lately?
Yes, don't worry.
Now, Mr. Yue always rushes me to eat and sleep
like a supervisor every day
and he always uses your orders to pressure me.
There's no chance that I can say otherwise.
By the way, Labor Day is in early September.
There will be a three-day holiday.
I'm going to visit the Chicago Art Museum.
I won't be able to talk to you over the phone
at that time.
What's Labor Day?
It's America's Labor Day,
the first Monday in early September every year.
The whole country will have three days off together with the previous weekend.
The first Monday of September?
Monday?
(Sales Report)
That'll be the 4th, September.
With the weekend.
That would be the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. A total of 3 days.
It's about half a month ahead of the original plan.
What are you muttering about there?
According to the time,
is it enough for production?
Half a month.
Hello?
It should be possible.
Mr. Tan.
(Awards) About the launch time of the new machine,
I have a new idea.
Tell me.
We should make it on 2nd September.
2nd September?
Why?
The first Monday of September
is Labor Day in the US.
An official holiday.
They'll have three consecutive days off from Saturday.
Jefferson is a foreign company.
They'll take the days off too.
Do you mean
taking advantage
of their holiday
to catch them off guard?
If they react one day later,
we'll have one more day to seize the market.
It's not a bad idea.
But it's mid-August now.
That's only two weeks
before 2nd September.
Is there enough time for production?
If the employees at the factory work overtime,
it shouldn't be a problem.
I'm not sure
if the sales and publicity of the company
will be able to cooperate.
Don't worry about this.
Since we're fighting a war,
we should adapt to the situation
and make changes anytime.
I'll take care of these.
All right. I'll head back to the factory
to make arrangements accordingly.
(Efficiency is life)
The sales volume of the company's products
may be increasing every year,
(1995 Sales Analysis) but it lacks leaping growth.
That's because
we didn't fully grasp the target audience.
It takes three steps to impress a customer:
understanding him, respecting him, and persuading him.
Therefore, we must be fully prepared
to gain customers' trust in us within five minutes
whenever we meet them.
The retailer's commission is 8%,
which is already a high percentage.
(Huayan Technology Co., Ltd.) We also have incentives.
(Latest Color Display Huayan Computer) If you place an order of over 200,000 yuan at a time,
the percentage will increase by 0.1%.
The commission will be 16,200 yuan.
On this basis,
for every additional 100,000 yuan, the percentage will increase by another 0.1%.
It's actually a very good price.
Come on. Stop working.
I brought supper for you.
(Feng Series)
(Huayan Computer Feng Series, Tempest)
Six monitors.
After loading them on the truck, come back quickly.
We have a large batch of goods to take care of.
(Huayan Technology Co., Ltd.) (With 8688 yuan, bring Huayan Tempest home.)
All right. We've been busy
for so long.
We'll how things work tomorrow morning.
Why do I feel
as nervous as watching the Olympic bid?
Man Huan Sheng,
don't jinx it.
No, I don't mean it that way.
I mean,
this is more nervous than watching the Olympic bid.
What are you saying?
That doesn't sound right either.
All right, then.
As long as you can show
the same determination as to the Olympic bid,
I'll be so relieved.
It's hard not to win this fight.
- Yes. - Yes.
(Huayan Tempest)
Tomorrow is the day we enter the battlefield.
(Innovation drives the future.) All of you
(Making innovation a classic, making classics eternal) need to stay alert!
Remember
to show our white teeth when we see the customers.
Smile as happily as you can.
Focus on your responsibility with all your heart.
Even if it is chaotic,
you cannot lose your cool!
We must make sure everything is in order.
Do you understand?
- Yes! - Yes!
Come,
let's repeat our slogan!
(Conpo Computer) With 8688 yuan,
bring Huayan Tempest home!
Great!
Abby.
Lydia.
Sorry, I fell asleep.
You work too hard.
Just go home.
I still have several promotion plans to finalize.
I'll go home after I'm done.
Okay, don't stay up too late.
It's Labor Day tomorrow.
HQ will be closed for the holiday.
You should give yourself a few days off.
It's getting closer to the launch of the new machine.
I feel restless when I take a break.
Things can wait for a couple of days.
Look at your dark circles.
Don't you know fatigue will affect work?
Take it a chance to readjust.
Lydia.
May I fly to Guangzhou?
Guangzhou?
He and I
haven't had a chance to talk.
I can't let it go.
Since he never thought of proposing to me,
I should propose to him, then.
Abby!
I may have grown up in a western country.
But I've never
seen a woman proposing.
I'm looking at the outcome.
To me,
the process isn't that important.
Are you serious?
Okay.
Since you've thought it through,
just go and be yourself.
You have my support.
Brother Xiao, I told you not to drink too much.
Do you think I wanted to?
In that situation,
I'd have to swallow even if it was poison.
We're broke now.
All we have left
are our sincerity and the wine we can drink.
Now, we can only hope the reporters
will give us a fair clarification.
I'll buy you a bottle of water.
Bring me my mobile phone.
Why do you want it?
Bring my mobile phone to me.
I want to call Xie Hang.
You're so drunk. If you call her now,
she'll be worried.
I don't care.
I want to propose to her.
I don't care about formalities anymore.
I just want her to marry me.
Get my mobile phone now.
All right.
I never gave her anything.
How can I ask her to marry me?
I don't deserve her.
There, there.
Ping Ping.
I'm here.
I feel so bad.
Let's go back to Beijing then.
I'll go wherever you go.
If we can overcome this setback,
we'll take the Linghang brand and leave Guangzhou.
Stop working with Lu anymore.
All my life,
I never escape from problems.
I can't leave at a time like this.
All right.
We'll fight to the end.
We're not scared of anyone!
I want to buy something.
- What do you want to buy? - No...
I...
I must buy
this thing now.
I'll buy it myself.
I'll buy it, so you drive. Let's go!
(Office area. Conference room. Printing area)
(Jefferson Computer)
Ms. Xie,
there was a call.
It stopped ringing before I could answer it.
It's okay. Why don't you go home first?
If it's something urgent,
they'll call back.
(Manager) All right. Don't stay too late either.
(Linghang)
(Linghang VCD)
Is Brother Lu still not answering?
I still can't reach him.
We can't wait anymore.
Let's go first. Or else, we won't make it.
- Go! - Hurry!
Chen,
what does this mean?
Cut the crap.
Where's Lu Hai Niu?
We're looking for him too.
Why?
Look at this carefully.
(Contract Service Agreement) The money for processing that you owe us
is a total of 3,850,000 yuan.
Settle this payment today.
We'll go separate ways after that.
Lu is in charge of the money.
There's no use for you to come to me.
Guard the door!
Call the Financial Department.
Ask how much he has.
Chen,
we'll never run away from our debt.
But you should know
Linghang is in trouble
because of you.
Stop talking nonsense.
If I don't get my money today,
you two will never get out through this door.
Why didn't you tell Brother Xiao earlier?
What happened?
It's bad.
Lu took 30 million yuan and left.
Why do we have so much money?
They must have cleared the payment a few days ago.
Didn't he say it's going to take another month...?
(Brother Lu must have run away with Qian Qian.)
(But Brother Chen, )
(Qian Qian is your cousin.)
(Who cares if she's my cousin at a time like this?)
(We must not let Xiao go!)
(Linghang)
Brother Xiao.
Report to the police.
Nobody calls the police!
There's no point asking me. I have no money!
Lu has run away with the money!
You'll have to settle
this payment today, no matter what!
My factory was closed down.
The fine cost me everything!
The villagers are holding my mom hostage
and have occupied my house.
They all want me to pay them their wages.
Tell me what else I can do now!
So Linghang
must be accountable for this payment!
Say something!
I'll take on all of you!
Block the door!
Stop it!
Chen.
Both of our money
was stolen.
We're on the same boat now.
Violence doesn't solve anything.
We can get back our money after we find Lu.
Ping Ping,
do you still remember
Lu bought a villa
for Qian Qian in Luohu?
The place where I asked someone
to check on its Feng Shui.
If he wants to run, he should be heading that way.
He should be there.
Let's find him together.
You stay.
Kid, listen.
If you want him to be safe,
you'd better not play any tricks.
The villa doesn't concern us.
We either see Lu
or the money today!
Brother Xiao.
Go.
Just go.
(Warehouse. Huayan Computer Feng Series. Huayan Technology Co., Ltd.)
Watch it!
Gently!
All right!
Brother San, sign here.
Go!
(Warehouse) That's the last truck.
Time to get off work.
It's finally over.
Let's see how this Tempest Computer sells.
It doesn't matter how well it sells.
The higher-ups have said
we'll get double for our bonus this month.
Really?
That's great!
All right, go back and rest.
All right.
Where's Master?
(Huayan Tempest Computer Launching Day)
Hello, this is Huayan Tempest Computer.
We're launching it today.
This is the first model in the market
- whose selling price of the whole machine - I'm not interested.
Of a 486 CPU is less than 10,000 yuan.
I assure you that the quality is absolutely up to standard.
Please take a look.
Why is nobody buying?
You're awake.
Why didn't you wake me up?
It's rare to see you sleeping so soundly.
I couldn't bear to.
What's wrong?
Today is Huayan Tempest's launch.
Too important a day to sleep.
I'll get going now.

(Hello, Huayan Tempest Computer Series.)
Do you still want your chestnuts?
Mister, go to Zhongguan Village, please.
You'll miss the plane, then.
I'm not going to the airport anymore.
Take a look at this.
(Grand Launch of Huayan Tempest Computer) Our Tempest Series
is highly efficient and energy-saving.
It functions at high speed.
Yang Wei, remember to fill out that form.
This is the latest Huayan Tempest Computer series.
The price is also...
Brother Pei! Brother Pei! Brother Pei!
These two customers want to know
if there are any other discounts.
Help me entertain him, please.
- Please come again. - It's these two.
How can I help you?
If I order five computers now,
will I have any other discounts?
I'm truly sorry.
We're selling affordable computers to the common folk.
You can ask around.
8688 yuan is the lowest price
for the same computer configuration
in the market.
All right. Where do I place an order?
It's over there.
All right.
(Exit)
No need to wait anymore.
Zhang Ping Ping won't come back.
What do you mean?
Lu must have run away with the money already.
I lied to you
about him buying a villa.
I just wanted to let my friend escape.
Do you think I don't dare to do anything to you?
What can you do to me?
Are you going to kill me?
Chen Village has already been exposed.
If anything happens to me,
you won't get away with it.
Kill me?
You'll be executed too.
And you two.
Even if you just watch and do nothing,
you'll be jailed for 20 years.
You ruined my business.
(Linghang VCD) I'll die anyway.
I'll just drag you along with me!
At least, I'll have a company in hell!
Things end up like this
because of you.
Chen,
you dragged yourself into this.
So it's pointless
for you to confine me here.
Be a man and calm down.
Calm down?
How can I calm down?
I'll be honest with you.
If I don't get the money today, I'm going to...
I found him.
Why didn't you come back?
I found Lu.
Do you still want to trick me?
I really found him.
He's not at the villa. He's at the second-hand shop.
He wanted to flee, but I locked him up.
It's true!
You can see for yourself if you don't believe me.
(Linghang VCD)
Ping Ping,
did you really find him?
Let's go!
Brother Xiao,
no matter what happens later, just run.
What do you mean?
Follow my car.
All right.
Wait!
You'll ride with us.
You'll go with him.
Chen, drive.
Okay.
Get in.
Get in quickly. Stop dallying!
I'm warning you.
Don't play games!
Chen, drive.
All right.
Don't move!
Ping Ping!
Back off!
Don't move!
Don't do anything stupid.
Kid.
Brother Xiao, go.
Go!
Don't move!
- Don't do anything stupid. - Ping Ping, car key!
Don't do anything stupid!
Back off!
I said, back off!
- Calm down. - Don't move.
Go back! Go back!
Put your knives down.
Ping Ping, let's get out of here!
After them!
Didn't I tell you to go?
Why did you come back?
How can I abandon you?
You're my brother.
Are they closing in on us?
Pretty close. Can you do this?
I'm good at nothing,
but driving.
Step on it! That way!
Brother Xiao, which way?
Take the South Gate and leave the city.
(South Gate)
Lin, step on it!
Go that way!
They're out of their minds.
That way!
Get him! Get him!
Are they trying to kill us?
Hit him!
Ping Ping, make them go that way!
Back up!
Turn around!
Ping Ping, drive to the side.
They're gone.
Drive back.
Brother Xiao, with the two of us teaming up
and some pigeons,
doesn't that make "The Killer"?
You're pretty quick-witted.
I already knew when you signaled me with your eyes.
You were up to no good.
Including the previous incident,
I have already saved you twice.
Yes, you're right.
The first time you saved my life,
I said I owe you one.
This time, I owe you until my next life.
Brother Xiao,
stop saying you owe me.
You might not believe me if I tell you this.
Following you
is my happiest moment.
I get to wear branded clothes, smoke cigars,
and have nice meals every day.
What a happy life!
I was happy in Foshan, too.
Maybe I was happier then.
Ping Ping,
after we overcome this obstacle,
we have to get one thing started quickly.
Teach you how to play the harmonica?
Anytime.
No,
we must find you
a wife quickly.
Brother Xiao, don't get me started.
If I can find
someone as nice as your girlfriend,
there's nothing else I'd ask for anymore.
