Yes, sir.

Look, I've been waiting for
this--

an invitation to the governor's
box for the race's,

and I'm taking you with me.

Oh, no, Charles.

I don't think it's a good idea.

Nonsense.

Look, Mrs. Winter doesn't care

But this is urgent.

The black American has come

You probably can see their ship

MR. WINTER [ON PHONE]: What's
happening?

SAM: They were attacked by
American guys.

Maybe [INAUDIBLE] people or Nat
Club [INAUDIBLE]

or even [INAUDIBLE] master Chan.

They're all right.

Horatio [INAUDIBLE] happened to
pass by and stopped the fight.

Oh.

9:00 o'clock. - OK.

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

I know what I'm missing.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Don't fuss, Eileen.

For god's sake, Charles, I only

want you to look your best.

You know the Tai-pan will be
watching you.

Yes, well, the Tai-pan won't
hang their decision

on a crooked tie.

Now, just leave me alone, and
let's get to this danged party.

Charles?

What?

What's the matter?

What do you mean?

You've been like this for
weeks--

cold, distant, secretive.

Nonsense.

Is it another woman?

When do I have time for other
women?

Whatever it is, Charles, please
share it with me.

I love you.

I will do anything to help.

Look, for the last time, there
is nothing wrong.

It's all in your imagination.

Dramatini, please?

Hello. How are you?

Oh, hi.

You're looking beautiful, of
course.

Is he?

Really?

And who's going to be the next
successor?

I must, uh-- go and talk to
Eileen.

[INAUDIBLE] Tai-pan.

Who else is more suited for the
job?

Excuse us.

[INAUDIBLE] Eileen, for god's
sake, keep quiet about it.

It's true, Charles.

You've waited 15 years for this.

Do you think I've stuck it here
all this time

because I like the place?

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

Charles, how nice to see you.

Can I introduce, uh-- Arthur?

Sure.

Good to meet you.

This is John.

Hello, Mrs. Winter--

Oh, good evening.

[INAUDIBLE] I think I'll the the
other half,

if that's all right with you?

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

I hope we'll be seeing a lot of
you both.

Oh, thank you.

That's a nice looking
[INAUDIBLE] now isn't it?

Let's have a sniff.

Time's running short, Mr. Lim.

As you know, I've got to appoint
my successor next week.

Is anything happening? - Yeah.

A new crime syndicate is being
formed.

The big boys are betting on
illicit gold.

It's worth $100 million.

Something to do with our man?

I'm not sure.

But rumors on the street said,
the deal's be financed by--

By who?

It's being financed by one of
Hong

Kong's largest trading houses.

Not by this one.

Our companies been legitimate
since the opiate trades

have [INAUDIBLE] ceased.

Really, Sir Miles?

I never knew it ceased.

Just for once, I'd like to go
to the races.

But the invitation didn't
include you.

Well, just for once, I'd like
to go to the races.

Well, dammit, this time you
can't.

Ladies and gentlemen, can I
have your attention?

As I probably won't see some of
you

again prior to my departure, I
would

just like to say a few words.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

As you know, I've been Tai-pan
of this home

for about 10 years.

[INAUDIBLE] Ho, hold it.

Hold it.

What kind of wild goose chase is
this, huh?

All I see is a bunch of fucking
birds, man.

Where's the white boy, huh?

Just the white boy you mean?

He won't be here tonight.

All I want is the document.

What do you think, I'm stupid?

I don't care if you're stupid
or not,

but just give me the document
now!

OK. OK.

- You got it? - OK.

Cool it.

Cool it.

Cool it.

You want it that bad?

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

Why don't you come back to bed?

Can't.

Busy day tomorrow.

How are things going at the
office?

Is Winter getting heavy?

What?

Come on, you know what I'm
talking about.

I can't help it.

I tried to--

Who the hell is that?

Look, it's my father.

He is coming back to see me.

At this hour?

You have to go now.

I'm not even dressed.

Oh, anyway, go.

Go.

Wham, bam, thank you, ma'am.

Jesus Christ.

Jenny, I had to see you.

Oh, yeah?

I bought you a present.

Oh.

Oh, how nice.

Oh that's beautiful. Thanks,
Charles.

I spent last night at a hotel.

Why?

To get away from Eileen.

The woman's impossible.

She's your wife.

Not for much longer, I hope, if
my plans work out.

Tell me something, Jenny.

I understand that you have a
friend,

a certain private investigator,
Horatio Lim.

What is it but he knows about
me?

How do you know I'm a friend of
the Horatio Lim?

I have my sources of
information.

I don't know, Charles, really.

Damn it, I--

I didn't come here to worry.

Just help me to forget things.

You're always so good at that.

No, not tonight, Charles.

I got a real bad headache.

Headache?

Bad headache.

Now, I've got to go to bed
earlier.

All right.

I call you tomorrow, OK?

I'll see you off.

Right.

How come you still here?

So your father just proposed to
you, huh?

Kinky.

Why do you care?

You never want to marry me.

Look, Winter is trouble.

There's no way he's going to
become Tai-pan, if that's

what you're interested in.

You know something?

I think you do.

Come on, Jenny.

What's Winter up to?

I don't know.

I really don't know.

Well think about it.

Good night.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Ah, Mr. Lim.

Hagan, isn't it?

That's right.

Big brother's here.

COMPUTER: Welcome back, big
brother.

Come on in.

Thanks. Nice place.

So how's your friend?

Jim?

I don't know.

He disappeared.

HORATIO LIM: Apparently your
good friend

was in trouble before.

Now in Hong Kong, it seems like
he's involved

with some secret gold dealing.

Are you pulling my leg?

Where did you get this info?

It's reliable.

So what are we going to do?

You?

Nothing. I'll take care of it--

No way.

I owe the guy.

It's going to be dangerous.

I think I can take care of
myself.

Really?

How's your wrist?

It's a bit sore.

Nice trick.

How did you do it?

- Tiger paw. - Wow.

Where can I learn something like
that?

Tell you what.

I have one of my teacher's cards
here.

Why don't you check him out.

This Your girlfriend?

That's my sister, Mae, my
teacher's assistant.

Yeah.

No way, [INAUDIBLE]

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

It's too complicated.

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

Please follow me.

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

Sifu wants me to show you some
movements.

Oh, good, because I find him
much too complicated.

I'd rather follow you. - OK.

I'm Mae Lim. - I'm Dutch Hagan.

You must be, uh--

Horatio's sister.

How do you know?

Well, I was in his office the
other day,

and I saw your picture.

Oh, that.

Uh-- so where you from?

Holland.

What are you doing here?

Well, I'm with the Navy.

We're just passing through.

So I guess you don't have much
time here, huh?

OK.

Let me-- I'll show you something
simple.

OK.

Just watch my movements.

Now, this movement comes from
the Chinese character Pi.

A tai-tai means white.

White.

Tai-tai.

You tai-tai?

No, not me tai-tai.

Come on, just follow my
movements, OK?

OK.

OK.

Can I do it like this?

Can I?

WOMAN [ON PHONE]: May I know
who's calling, please?

Horatio Lim.

WOMAN [ON PHONE]: One moment
please, Mr. Lim.

RAYMOND [ON PHONE]: [INAUDIBLE]

Yo, Raymond, if my hunch is
correct,

I think I just got attacked by
two of Ah Fang's thugs.

But don't worry, they're sound
asleep now in my office lift.

RAYMOND [ON PHONE]: OK.

I'll have a [INAUDIBLE] right
away.

Good bye. - OK.

Bye, bye. [DOORBELL]

Come in, Mrs. Winter.

Hello, Mrs. Winter.

My god, you're the bartender.

Well, I have to earn a bit
extra--

pay for my new toys.

Please, be seated.

You were recommended to me as
the best

detective in Hong Kong.

Well, I wouldn't say that I was
number one,

but then I wouldn't admit to
being number two either.

Now, what can I do for you?

I want to talk to you about my
husband.

I doubt if I can help you.

I will pay you twice your usual
fee.

I'm afraid that's a conflict of
interest.

I just want to know if he's
having

an affair with another woman.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Winter.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Max.

You want a drink, Mr. Winter?

No, thanks.

So what's the problem? What's
the pay?

Just shut up and listen.

There's a black American in
town.

I need him badly, but he's being
held by Coffin Fang's men.

The same gang that wasted Sam?

Don't ask questions if you
already know.

Sure.

What makes you think I want to
end up like Sam?

I have enough information on
you to hang you in five

countries, including this one.

Now, just get the American for
me, and get him quick.

They'll be twice as much when
you do.

Sure, dead or alive.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

I've got to speak to--

ah, Horatio, hi.

It's Dutch.

Listen, we've really got to
meet.

I just walked into Jim's room.

And they have just completely
turned the place upside down.

Where-- what?

TV games arcade.

You said-- OK.

OK. Oh, hold on.

I'll write it down.

Let me get a piece of paper.

Yeah, OK.

Shoot.

Uh-huh.

[INAUDIBLE] Number?

Yeah.

OK, fine.

I'll be there in about half an
hour.

Bye, bye. No, no, no, no.

Don't worry. I can find my way.

Oh, shit. - You pay.

You pay. - No, no, no.

I pay? What for?

It's not my room. I made a
mistake.

I'm sorry--very sorry. Bye, bye.

Hey, wait. Wait.

Wait.

No one else can, not even

Do you realize I'm being
followed coming down here?

Did you shake them?

I think so.

[INAUDIBLE]

No.

And there's something else.

His room's been turned over from
top to bottom.

You know, I'm really getting a
bit worried about the guy,

you know?

Yeah, it probably had to do
with that Taiwan message.

You know what they're looking
for?

No, not really.

Look out.

I thought you [INAUDIBLE] off.

Who the hell are these guys?

Probably our guns men.

[YELLING]

Quit playing.

Let's go.

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

We lost them.

Good.

I really enjoyed that.

You would, wouldn't you?

Listen, if Jim still hasn't come
back--

Yeah?

Um-- sorry, I don't follow.

Sir Miles, that gold shipment

Yeah?

It's been aborted.

Sir.

See that Lieutenant Hagan gets
safely back on board.

Yes, sir.

Thanks.

Appreciate it.

Take care. Stay out of trouble.

Hey, guys, I'm sorry.

Oh

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

No, no, I'm really, really
sorry.

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

[INAUDIBLE]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[KNOCKING]

DUTCH HAGAN: Mae!

Mae!

Mae!

Mae, help!

Oh.

DUTCH HAGAN: Mae?

Mae?

Mae?

Who is it?

DUTCH HAGAN: Open up.

Who is it?

DUTCH HAGAN: Open up, please?

What are you doing here?

DUTCH HAGAN: I'll tell you
later,

just open the god damn door!

What's the matter?

What happened?

Mae, please, I've got a
problem.

You-- you've just gotta trust
me.

I need a place to stay for the
night.

No.

You can't stay here.

Mae, Mae, please?

I tried to get hold of Horatio,
but I can't find him.

It's just for the night, please?

Are you telling me the truth?

Uh-huh.

Well, OK, just for one night.

OK, thanks [INAUDIBLE]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[INAUDIBLE]

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

You're running down the
street--

Uh-huh, and?

[INAUDIBLE]

[LAUGHING]

Hey, what's going on around
here?

Nothing.

I just needed somewhere to
stay.

You keep out of this.

Since when do you invite
strangers to stay the night?

What do you mean, stranger?

He's no stranger.

You sent him to us, remember?

To teach Kung Fu-- nothing
else.

Come on, big brother.

Nothing else happened.

Don't you know that half of
Hong Kong's after him?

If they get him, they get you
too.

Don't you think I have enough to
worry about?

Hey, do us a favor, will you,
lay off her.

Listen, I don't want my sister
involved in your mess.

Man, I tried to reach you last
night,

but I couldn't get hold of you.

So I turned to Mae.

See?

Why aren't you on your ship?

Because I'm going to look for
the guy who killed Jim.

How?

By finding the bloke who jumped
me at the hotel

the other night.

Can you describe him?

Yeah, he's big, mean looking,
bald head--

Mustache?

Yeah, he's got a mustache.

Maxie Schwartz. Max Schwartz.

- You know the guy? - Yeah.

Come on. Let's go.

Where are you going?

I don't know.

And don't forget--

Kung Fu training only.

That's him.

[INAUDIBLE]

Hey, Hey, take it easy.

Take it easy, patience,
remember?

Come on.

Let's have a drink.

Quick three beers. Come on.

Gentlemen, please be cool.

Relax.

So what happened at the hotel,
Max?

When I got there, the guy was
dead.

Go on.

Drink up.

Peace.

Mr. Winter wanted me to find
this black guy.

Why?

I don't know.

I'm told he's being held by
Coffin Fang.

Paid me to get him.

Did you?

No, you know Coffin Fang.

Then he told me to go to the
hotel.

So you say.

You lousy--

It was a strange coincidence,
wasn't it, Max?

Winter-- he set me up.

That's a possibility.

Come on.

Let's split.

You--

Hey, hey, I told you to take it
easy.

Come on. Come on.

Let's split.

Seems to me like the guy is
lying.

He didn't do it. I know Max.

That's not his style.

[INAUDIBLE] You better keep out
of sight for awhile.

That's taken care of.

Don't worry.

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

But why?

Why--

[SCREAMS]

Charles?

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[INAUDIBLE]

[INAUDIBLE],, Mr. Lim is a
friend.

I'm not so sure what kind of
friend.

After all, I had to the police I
was coming.

Can I play?

Yes.

Nobody really cares if the
triads kill each other off.

Actually, I'd rather prefer it
that way myself.

But now there's the American
sailor.

You think I killed him?

He has something that you want.

Did you find it?

Maybe I can help you find it.

- I'll offer you $100,000. -
Whew.

The money is good.

Now suppose you tell me what I'm
looking for.

A piece of paper.

And how will I recognize this
piece of paper?

This paper has [INAUDIBLE]
Winter's signature.

That's all I wanted to know.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[YELLING]

[INAUDIBLE]

What are you going to do now?

All that you're going to do is
play a round with [INAUDIBLE]..

We're all trying to forget about
him.

You know what I mean.

I mean, what [INAUDIBLE]

Oh, the Navy.

Well, they're probably going to
send me back to a bad ship.

But first of all, I'm going to
teach you how to play ball.

I'm going to try to teach you
the perfect [INAUDIBLE]

Oh, how exciting.

[INAUDIBLE]

Just keep looking at it the
whole time.

[INAUDIBLE]

Yeah, I really like this game.

It's really good fun.

Well, you should pick it up,
because you got flare for it.

I do?

Yeah, with much practice.

OK.

I-- I just might pick it up, you
know.

Here.

So, how are things with you
with the Navy?

I'm bored.

I mean, I'm really bored of it.

You're bored and you're in the
Navy.

Uh-huh.

Why are you in the Navy in the
first place?

It's family tradition.

You know, my two brothers are in
the Navy.

My father's in the Navy. So
consequently--

Oh.

[INAUDIBLE]

And what about you?

Tell me something about
yourself.

Well, I'm, um--

my parents died when I was very
little.

So it has always been Horatio
and myself,

you know what I mean.

I guess it's always been big
brother and me.

Horatio, is a bit
overprotective, isn't he?

Well, he is, of course.

He's my brother.

He loves me a lot and he's a
good guy.

I really love him too.

I guess so.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Well done. Well done.

See? You can do it.

See?

[LAUGHING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[LAUGHING]

Mae!

[LAUGHING]

Where is the document?

I don't know what the hell
you're talking about.

[INAUDIBLE] document!

[INAUDIBLE]

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

Mae?

Mae?

Mae?

Doctor?

How is she?

She's in a coma.

Please wait.

- What happened? - I don't know.

I was just playing golf.

Where did you go?

I told you to stay away from
her, didn't I?

Didn't I?

Didn't I?

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

Who did this?

I don't know, man.

Some guy with a gold tooth. I
don't know.

I've never seen him before in my
life.

Gold tooth-- [INAUDIBLE]

[INAUDIBLE]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Charles, how could you do this
to me, after all I've done

for you for the last 15 years?

Where the hell did you get
these?

Oh, Charles, please, I'm asking
you for the last time,

give her up.

Finish with her.

I'll do everything I can to help
you be the new Tai-pan.

Please?

Let's start all over again.

I'm not going to be the next
Tai-pan.

And we can't start all over
again.

I don't love you anymore.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

Dutch, let's check the
backstage.

[GUNSHOT]

I'll do anything.

I'll give you anything.

Please, let me go.

Bastard.

All right.

Just tie him up.

Let's give him a taste of his
own medicine.

You know this what they did to
poor Jim.

But where's gold tooth Wang?

Huh?

I thought he'd be here.

He's still got to be at the
coffin shop.

Let's check it out.

[GROANING]

[INAUDIBLE]

[INAUDIBLE]

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

Come on.

Come on, you bastard.

Come on, you [INAUDIBLE] Cool
it.

Come on, you [INAUDIBLE] Cool
it.

You're going to waste him.

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

Uh-oh.

I'll see you at the hospital.

So you know what the document
is.

Once I faced Charles with your
report, he told me everything.

It's an irrevocable guarantee
for $100 million dollars

signed by Charles, committing
the company.

Even I cannot cancel it.

I'm sorry, Tai-pan.

So you should be.

Have you found any further
documentation?

Unfortunately, nothing.

But the answer is somewhere in
this building.

This building?

How so?

According the police reports,
the American

was killed with a bullet from a
.38, Sir Miles.

A .38? [INAUDIBLE]

Don't bother.

I've checked already.

So, you're a murderer too,
Charles?

No, I swear it.

Is this what you're looking
for?

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Please, Mr. Lim, stay where you
are.

You killed Jim Burstall?

Yes, I killed him.

My god.

See, I found that he had this
paper.

And I knew it would do Charles
harm,

and they wouldn't make him
Tai-pan.

And I--

Damn it.

You didn't have to kill him.

I know.

It was a waste of time, because
everything you were doing,

you were doing for her.

God damn you, Jenny Lin.

Are you mad?

[GUNSHOT]

[SCREAMS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Leaving?

I'm sailing at midnight.

On Chinese New Year's Eve?

Mm-hmm.

Could you take him to see the
fireworks before he leaves?

Yeah, sure.

I want him to see the pretty
side of Hong Kong.

You're coming back again?

I don't know, but I'll miss
you.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[SINGING] [INAUDIBLE] you're not
there.

When I feel [INAUDIBLE] through
the [INAUDIBLE] my tears

When I feel [INAUDIBLE] through
the [INAUDIBLE] my tears

[FIREWORKS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[INAUDIBLE] You were no longer
[INAUDIBLE] my side.

Wish you were here.

Time seems to stop somehow.

Minutes seem like years.

I drift like snow on the ground,
reaching out for you.

Reaching out for a dream.

Everywhere the people stop and
stare,

laughing at my foolishness.
