Where the hell are you?
They're tired of waiting

Do you mind?

Normally, I don't

Why are you alone at this hour?

I want to end my life

Good idea!

Let me take you to a place to do it

HELLO!

HELLO!

Our Art director Chicken Wing

Chicken Wing! ?

My real name is Chi Ken Wing

CHICKEN WING

Laugh? Did I tell you to laugh?

Have fun

Sit down, don't go away?

You're looking for a model,

not a wife, understand?

There's no such
Show White in this world, my dear!

Why not? Look over there

There?

You like those two men kissing over there.

She's there

Come on!

What are you doing?

He found his dream girl

Chicken Wing's taste is pretty selective

Over there

Madam, did you see

a girl in white skirt come in?

Let's see how she looks

-Yes, she's coming out now
-Thank you

Oh, my dear art director, Avanti...

-She must be stunning
-Wonderful!

COME ON...

Really charming

Charming like hell

You must have met a ghost to-night

250 C. C.

Who's this girl?

What do you think?

Yes, beautiful?

Great...

Your dream girl?

Perfect, truly perfect!

Are we good friends?

Good friends?

It depends

If we are, help me to find her

I must be a fool to help you

She must live somewhere in one of the buildings

Excuse me, have you seen this girl?

Never

Are you sure?

Have you seen this girl, please?

-Thank you
-Great! Fantastic!

-She doesn't exist
-Thank you

Don't mention it

Chicken Wing, Let's forget it O.K. ?

-I'm getting a sore throat
-Let's go...

How dare you scratch my car!

Give me back the ball!

Hey! Cut it out

Bastard!

Hello.

What do you want?

I'm looking for this lady

No such lady here

I recognize her white dress

Please tell me where she is

Why do you want to see her?

I want to get my coat back, I lent her

When do you lend it her?

Two night ago

Two night ago? Young man, listen.

She was killed in a car accident last month

you must come across her spirit

Spirit? She must be joking?

Granny, don't joke with me.
Open the door please

Well, come inside & ask her then

Young man, if you want to see her

Go to No. 1444. Chinese Perpetual Cemetery

Thank you granny

Seeing a ghost means, you've bad luck lately

Let me introduce you to a fortune teller

Who is he?

He uses computers to tell fortune

Master, I bring my friends here

What's his name?

Chi Ken Wing, male, 196...

1!

Born on 6th June, 1961, at 6 a. m.

He's 30, no...

27 years old

He has bad luck recently

His halo looks dark

& a redlight has entered into his head

Within this month, he'll encounter a tragedy

Perhaps a disaster. Be careful, Sir

Will he be possessed by an unclean spirit

Not at the present

But don't fool around so much

Master, can we do anything about it

Yes, this is a holy charm!

It may keep you away from the devil

and be sure you stick with lucky people

It helps to diminish the possibility of tragedy

Are we these lucky people?

Your halo is bright

It's alright. No sweat

Me?

Her halo is golden, means luck is on her side

Stick with her. It'll be good for you

Value her, she can protect you

Thank you, master!

It's your parents' 30th anniversary. Sign it

Thanks for reminding me that

Otherwise, they'll kill me

Thank you

THANK YOU!

Ann Sit Down

Why?

Sit down!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU

How do you know it's my birthday?

I saw them sending you the present

What's matter?

Will you join our party
at the Casablanca to-night

Okay!

Serious?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY...

No need!

When do I go to USA
to see your parents?

They're fierce. They'll scare you

Their son doesn't scare me.

Why should I be scared of them?

What's this?

A Buddha statue from Japan

David bought it for me

He went Japan shopping last week

Superstitious

It's all because of you

What would you like to buy
for your mom's birthday

Hey, this is not your private road!

What's the big deal?

Get lost...

Move!

Go

Sorry. I can't join your party to night

You're still thinking of her

Give it back to me!

Stop making a fool of yourself

Ann's dad came over from England to see you

Obviously they're serious about you

What good does it bring
to keep on thinking that spirit

She's not a spirit. I saw her yesterday

Wake up please, it's your imagination again

She's dead. You've already seen her grave

She's dead!

Where the hell is it?

It's somewhere around here

Can you remember the number?

Yes, it's 1444

Chicken Wing? 14447 Are you sure?

It's a granny

What are they doing here?

We're looking for someone

Is there a German girl here?

This flat has been vacant for the last 6 months

Impossible. I talked to
an old woman here 2 days ago

You don't believe it?

Go in & see for yourselves

You'll see

It's not worth it to waste your time on her

I have my own business to do

Sorry!

Tell me, does the perfect girl exist?

Yes

She does exist

Tell her to show up then

Watch out

good morning. Sir, welcome in

Did you see a girl with a pink coat come in

It was me

I mean pink not red

She's behind you

I saw a girl in pink coat for sure

Take a look then

Thank you

CECILIA

He's still at the entrance

O.K.

I'm sure that she had come here

Please leave if you're not buying anything

What's matter, young man

I'm looking for someone

Have you found her? Go away

Sorry!

Time off

Don't be so rude

What?

You're bad!

Good morning!

You again?

It's for you

I'm sure you know where she is

I'm sure you're a kind girl too

Wrong. I'm not that kind

You met my boyfriend.
Please go now Otherwise you'll be in trouble

Alright

Cecilia, he came again.
You should see him this time

Okay!

You finished the call with her?

What...?

Well, as I said, you know where she is

I've tried hard to find her

I don't know

I DON'T KNOW

Is she in this coffee shop now?

You said so, not me

I said it

May I have your flower?

There's no table sharing in this place

I've already returned you the coat

How about an explanation?

First time I met you why did you kiss me

Then you told me you were dead

Then I saw your grave

What does it all mean?

You've got feet. So you're not a ghost

Anyway, thank you for your ride

My boyfriend's coming.
He hates seeing me with a stranger

Welcome, Mr. Tsao

Hey! Cut it out

Mr. Tsao, this way, please

You'd better leave now

What are you doing?

Is that any of your business?

He's right, is that any of your business?

It's for you

Thank you, Sam

Why does your friend leave so soon?

He's not my friend.
He just wanted to share the table

Ah Pow

Yes

Cecilia's friend has no seat. Find him one

Sam, forget it

Hey, what are you doing?

What do you want?

Go now!

It's bleeding

CECILIA

I...

What?

He's really devoted to you

If someone loves me like that

I'd do anything for him

He was seriously hurt by Brother Sam

He's now in French Hospital, go & see him

You're too young to understand

But I understand you look
much better in white than black

Fishing?

I didn't realize that you'd waken up

I've prepared some pork congee for you

I'll get some water

Don't look for me again

Why?

Don't ask why,

just forget everything

Because of that man?

He's not worthy of you

That's my affair. You've no right to stop me

You've no right to stop me seeing you either

Next time you won't end up in hospital.
Don't be stubborn

I'll find you again

Brother Sam,

Solicitor Chan

Congratulations!

The court announced your right
of succession to-day

The vast legacy of your father
belongs to you for good

You also made a fortune from the legal fees

Just enough to cover the expenses
for my second family

Sam, your father was in excellent health

why did he die so suddenly

He committed suicide

Committed suicide

He lost almost a $100 million in 2 recent deals

Maybe he became morose, so...

Impossible, he was always so optimistic

You're drunk

Drunk? I intended to get drunk

So I can see the world in its good light

& avoid seeing the bad faces so clearly

Let's dance

Cecilia, I need to talk to your privately

Brother Sam,

Many VIP are coming to-night...

Mrs Lin

Brother Sam,

It's been a long time

Why don't you introduce
such a beautiful girl to me?

How dare I not introduce to you

This is one of HK's
most eligible bachelor, Sam Tsao

This is the new Miss Hong Kong Tse Bao-shan

Let me fetch you some drinks

Don't be naughty

If I didn't meet you tonight

It'd be just like in a gold mine
and coming out empty handed

Don't take it seriously

Be careful

Linda, are you alright?

Sam Tso is a playboy.
Forsakes the old for the new

If I were you I'd make a fortune out of him

Don't say that

I had this experience 10 years ago,
way he loved me,

More passionate than he loves you now

I even gave birth
to a daughter for him. Silly!

Is that so?

It was revealed to the public
by all the scandal magazines

Please help her

I just received $600, 000 only

You're drunk

I am not

Tonight, we've the honour
to invite the New Miss H. K

To sing a song for us,

"I can't stop thinking of you"

"I tried, but I can't help it"

You're drunk

You may leave. I'll call you tomorrow

Po-shan, I want you tonight

Lie down

Your behaviour tonight impressed me

But there's rumours
about your love affairs lately

It's not true, brother Sam

But I don't mind since the whole HK knows it

Po-shan, I've got you

I LOVE YOU

The ginger soup is ready

Throw it away!

Maid Sha

Sorry!

When are you going to leave that rascal?

Forget it, please let's not talk about it

I have something to show you

Look

Where did you catch this dove

Do you remember when you were small

We raised many doves
in the old house in Lantau Island

I remember

This one flew on to our balcony today

It should make a nice soup

Don't...don't be so cruel

It suffers being kept in captivity

Miss, I nearly forgot

Someones from the sanitorium called up

Asked you to look up your Grandpa

Don't worry

Fly away! Why don't you fly away?

You're used to captivity.
It's hard for you fly away

Come down! I've been here for ages

I'm terribly cold!

"That is not my concern!"

I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU

I love you!

"I don't love you"

I'm no mood for sleep...

my brains is in a whirl

Why are you looking for me again

-Because I promise I would
-What did you promise me?

To look for you again

You've found me now. you can go. Bye!

You painted it?

Please autograph if for me

How about a drive in the car?

TE?

I can't remember

What do you want?

There's no moonlight tonight

But the music is good

Is that guy in bed already?

Does he beat you like he beat me?

I hope that he didn't beat you tonight

Why did you pretend to be dead to deceive me?

If you're going to address me like a criminal

I'll jump out of the car like last time

I'll go to the back. Don't look at me.

You want to rape me?

Yes...

Close your eyes

A bird told me

It's your birthday today, lunar 17th Feb.

Make a wish.

They won't blow out because
you didn't make a serious wish

I give up

Let me relight them. Come on, make a wish

Forget it. My wishes never come true

Tell me, do you have any ambition

To be a singer

Stay there! Don't move!

Ready, go!

"I'm no mood for sleep because..."

"My mind is in a whirl"

"remember the old days"

"I tap my feet just thinking about the past”

"If I could see you tomorrow"

"And feel the warmth of your arms"

Stop it!

Don't stop me...

Calm down

Alright!

Did I sing that bad?

Not that bad

Just very bad bad

It's lucky that I'm not singer
otherwise II'd be much more destructive now

You're pretty destructive being with that guy

You're a nuisance!

You must have thought I was insane just now

Not really

Every time I feel happy,
it has to come to an end.

Thanks for the birthday cakes!

When can we meet again?

When?

We...

We got to end it here

It's the first time I see you smile

Well, I've played the fool

Sung stupid songs, sent birthday cakes.

I don't have a chance, do I?

Goodbye!

Where can I see you?

See you midday at the pier tomorrow

Where've you been.
Master Sam is about to wake up

Hurry up & go in now

Thank you

Where did you go so early?

Jogging

You still have a headache

I haven't got any headache

I was never really drunk last night

I know everything.

That guy works for an advertising agency

He want you to shoot a mint wine ad.

Yes

If I see him again, I'll chop his head off

Yes, chop his head off

Never mind him, sleep a little more

Tonight I'm off to Thailand for 2 or 3 days

Tell Ah Chuen to pick me up at 2:20.
I need some more sleep

Sorry. I'm late

It seems that I dated your sis, not you

She's busy. I'm her younger sister

Let's go visit my sister'd grandpa

You've lost!

Not yet

Miss Yee

Tai-kam, here you at last

Tai-kam? (means gold carrier, )

You said you knew all about me,
you don't even know my real names

The doctor said your grandpa
could pass away anytime

We'd like you to sign
the funeral authorization form

When grandpa heard you were coming,
he was so excited

He asked me to find a suit for him

How about that?

Thank you, Miss Yee

"Mountains separate us"

Grandpa

Tai-kam, you've really come

Grandpa, you look so handsome with the bow tie

Let's go

Who is this...

My fiance Chi Ken Wing

Chi Ken sounds like chicken

Mr Chicken?

How do you do, grandpa?

Where do you work?

He's the supervisor at the school where I teach

So. He's a supervising chicken

Whatever you say

Tai-kam, did you bring anything today?

Yes

My future grandson-in-law, let's go in & talk

Sure!

My future grandson-in-law,
although it's the first time I see you

I like you

Alright, I give my
dearest grand-daughter to you

Promise me to take good care of her

I will

She's suffered greatly since childhood

Promise me to be kind to her

We're men, shake on it

Why do you keep shaking hands?

This is men's talk, nothing to do with women

Grandpa

Here's some Ng Ka Pi tea, try it

Ng Ka Pi (Chinese wine) tea?

Give back to me

Give him what he wants. He's not got long.

Again

No, let my good friends try some,

Good idea

Tai-kam, any letter from your mom?

Yes

Give it to me

I'll read it to you

Dad, how are you?
I'm fine in the USA. Don't worry about me

We've many customers in our restaurant
and our 3 kids are very nice

The youngest one
has started to help in the restaurant

How come? He's only four

Help...

Let me...

The youngest one enjoys
playing with foreign kids

I'm very busy...Got to go

Is that all?

Oh, yes

There's a cheque payable to Chicken Wing,
get it from him

Where's the money?

It is here. I've cashed it

-$800 you better check it
-800

It's correct

Take this $300 as good luck money,
my future grandson-in-low

Thank you, grandpa...

Grandpa...

Tai-kam

This $300 is your marriage dowry

Grandpa, Chicken and I will
fetch you for the wedding

Not necessary, just leave a vacant seat for me

"A boat is drifting away..."

"Moutains separate as..."

"The birds fly to the South”

Grandpa, it's cold, go inside

"The birds return to the South"

"when the birds return to lament"

"my loneliness, my loneliness"

Tai-kam

I don't know whether
he sees me off or I see him off

Your mom lives in New York. My mom also...

Mom had been dead almost 10 years

Sorry!

Grandpa is so old. I couldn't hurt him

Right

These jades pieces was my
father's gift to mom before he died

"NO REGRETS, AND NO BLAME"

It seems our ancestors were more romantic

Wait!

Wait!

The last ferry has gone. Come again tomorrow

What can we do now, Miss Tai-kam?

Where can we find a hotel in this weather

I'll take you to a hotel free of charge

Hotel?

Here! ?

Yes!

Light a fire

There's kerosene by the basin

Emperor, are you bore by yourself?

We come to say hello

Who's living here?

I lived here when I was a child

Tai-kam lived here

-Fetch the fruit
-0.K.

Have some...

Don't turn around, no peeping

You're still peeping

Can I turn around now?

No!

Okay now

What are you staring at?

Are you nervous?

Idiot!

Let me peel an apple for you

Your hands are trembling. Let me do it

Is this emperor your friend?

Yes! Grandpa gave it to me when I was small

Everything here is so fascinating

Why don't you
take them all with you to the city?

Sometimes it better to
leave things in their proper place

that way. they don't suffer...like me

Don't die before me!

Otherwise, who'll take care of me
for the rest of my life

"Intense and warm"

"Love caresses life tenderly”

"A moment of serenity”

"Sees me listening"

"The soft pulses of your heart"

"Love vanishes like clouds”

"Helplessly I realise"

"The future is forever changing”

"Will I still be a part"

"Of your brighter soul?"

"Countless joy and ecstasy"

"Still dancing in my mind"

"Entangled love unto eternity"

"Gone yet going strong"

"Intense and warm"

"Love pours into lifeless mind"

"In the forever changing future"

"Will it still be me"

"Fighting you in the battle of love?"

"Countless joy and ecstasy"

Let me tell you the truth about that night

My grandpa was seriously ill several years ago

I borrowed 100, 000 from a loan shark company

We suffered a lot from the loan

I was lucky to be saved by Sam Tsao

The only son of Peter Tsao the Multi-millionaire

To save grandpa

I lived with Sam

He likes to lead a life of luxury

He likes making acquaintances
with both criminals amd police

Less than 6 months he lost almost
half of his father's properties

His father got so mad
he cut off his managerial post

But his father liked me

So Sam bought me home to plead him

and then it happened

I was almost knocked over by your car

I deceived you to prevent you
from getting involved

When I get back to the city.
I have to race up to reality again

the reality is that we're together now

Ask him to let you go

I can pay back the money you owe Sam

It's not that simple

Have you tried leaving him?

I believe in certain things

Like, never giving up

Don't choke yourself to death!

Where there's a will there's a way

Take it easy, I'll talk to him

Brother Sam, how was the trip to Thailand?

Cecilia, you look great!

Brother Sam always gets the best in life!

Cecilia is the nicest of them all

I treat her as half a wife

Where's the other half then

I'll look for her tonight

We'll chat about it tonight

No wonder Sam's
the happiest bachelor in this world

Cecilia plays a vital role in
brother Sam's heart

She's a good girl. I love her the most

Did you miss me when I was away?

Brother Sam, here we are

Brother Sam, we've to talk privately.
It's urgent

Hung, you check Mr Tong in at the hotel

Okay!

Mr Tong, Don't forget the party tonight

Bye, Cecilia

You've got a special surprise for me

-Don't kid me
-Sure, let's go

Good! you did a great job!

Pow, did you keep an eye
on Hung when I was away

Yes

Tell me what she did

She went to Lantau to see her grandpa

How was the weather in Lantau?

Weather! ?

Not bad

Sir

Pow, open it for me

Luckily Chan is smart otherwise
I'll be make to look a fool

Brother Sam, it was my fault

-Sorry. Are you alright?
-Yes

Pow, don't take it so seriously

If you keep injuring yourself.
Who will look after me?

Sam, that bastard

Cheers

I'm going to kill that bastard

I'll kill you

What are you looking for?

I'm going to kill that bastard

No, you'll become a murderer

That guy really loves Cecilia

If only you were
half as true to me as he is to Cecilia

Then I'd be the happiest girl in the world

No, I have to get kid of whoever harm Sam

Forget it, let's drink

Drink it for me

For you, cheers

One more

I'd sacrifice anything for you too,
even my life

Mann

Sam, I've something very important to tell you

-Master Sam
-Thank you

I got to go though with it

Brother Sam

Who was that?

It's Mann

There's something I want to talk to you about

Fine, I love listening to your personal affair

Well...

This doll has been with us
for quite a long time

It's been 4 years

It's getting old. Let's give it away

Fine!

You know where I've been?

The Cemetery!
I brought a bunch of flowers for Lily

You know Lily? My old girlfriend

I was tired of her.

But she shouldn't have seduced my chauffeur

She eloped and escaped

I let them get far away

To the life hereafter

Hung, tell me did I ever mistreat her?

She acted heartlessly

She was heartless

What?

Heartless

You said you had something to tell me

I've forgotten, I'll tell you when I remember

I hope it's not that important

Cecilia, it's about Chicken Wing

Tell me in in the kitchen

So he knows everything

No wonder he implied something
when he talked to me

You've got to get out of Hong Kong

I bought tickets for tomorrow's 8:00 flight

I've made Pow drunk now,
but if he gets sober later

No one can stop him killing people

Chicken

It's you?

Are you willing to help me escape from Sam

Of course!

I've got 2 ticket for
8 a. m. tomorrow's flight to Switzerland

See you at the check-in counter at 7:15 a. m.

Are you alright?

I'll tell you tomorrow

Brother Sam's coming

Mann, what are you doing here?

I've some urgent invoices for Cecilia to sign

I'm leaving now

Harder

You requested to go off
on holiday with that woman

You don't understand

I've known you for over 10 years

I thought you had high standards

Now I've discovered you
don't you just fond of tarts

you chose a bitch indeed

We're truly love each other

True love?

Fake love!

You've the use of a private car like Ann

But you take a taxi, like her

If I had a girlfriend like Ann

I'd be satisfied

But you prefer a taxi

Anyone can pick up a taxi

It only costs $5. 50 to flag down a tax

Don't insult her again

Okay then...I won't insult her

She's A New Territories taxi, a tunnel taxi...

Enough!

She's like an artificial flower without scent

You're a gentleman. Why pick her up?

Well, I know why you so devoted to her

You know why, Mr Chi Ken Wing?

Why?

Because you're a chicken wing

and she's a chicken...

Chicken! ?

How dare you hit me?

I bought breakfast for you every day...

Listen, my friendship ends here

You'll regret this

Don't touch me again or I'll break your head

You're cheap, just cheap!

Hung, is the dessert ready?

Nearly!

Time's up

King heart

The light is dazzling your eyes

Your turn

-Any cigarettes?
-Yes, I have cigarette

Hung, get me some cigarettes

Let me get them for you

It's okay. I'll get them. Hung...

She must be asleep

I turn to deal?

Get in!

Drive!

I came with Ann to see you off
don't get any wrong ideas,

Thanks!

Call or write us you're in any trouble

I will

Look after the money

Don't tell that woman about the money

It's in case of emergency

Thanks!

For what! There's 30% interest on it

We're even now

What a lousy driver!

Go another way please

Go

Goodbye!

Is everything alright?

It's fate

Goodbye!

A traffic accident in Pak Tai Street

Taxi

Driver, please hurry

Excuse me! 8 o'clock, check in

No, sorry, it's closed

Excuse me! Is Cecilia Yau on the flight?

Oh! I remember she just

10:00 o'clock, thank you!

Watch out...!

Hurry up!

What are you doing?

Chicken Wing

Let me go. Chicken Wing

What did you say?

We caught them already

We found out that Mann betrayed us

What a bitch who bite's the hand that feeds her

Forget her! I'll get you another prettier girl

Run her down

The bastard is going away

Drink up, then you're free to go

Please let us go!

I'll return everything you gave me

Money is not the problem

You know what the problem is

You think you can get away with murder

Wrong, it's not murder, it's suicide

I can imagine tomorrow's headline

Young Couple kill themselves
like Romeo & Juliet

Romeo, you drink first

You've got bad breath!

Drink it and you won't smell it

Let me drink Poison me but not to her

You're poisoning her, not me

If you hadn't appeared

She'd have stuck to me

Girls are just toys to you

You can have so many

This doll is mine.

You've no right to take it away from me

Drink it!

No!

You love her that much, prove it

Lick it!

Scared?

-Scared of death?
-No!

No guts

I'm ready to do anything for Hung

I'm willing to kill Mann or anybody. Lick it up

Come on!

Pow, kill them

Don't!

You're not going to die that easily

Kill me, so I can join Mann

Are you mad?

I promised to find you a prettier girl

Mann was different from other girls

Different? Mann was cheap

I'm willing to kill Hung, why not Mann?

Shut up

It's true, she really was a tramp

One that dares to betray me is a tramp

Am I right?

Shut up

You don't believe she was a tramp

Shut up!

I knew you'd betray me!

Run her down

Come back!

Quick

Quick

Jump!

Hung!

I didn't think there's anymore I can do now

Doctor, I didn't understand

The patient's condition is very unsteady

Tomorrow morning is the critical period

If she pulls though by tomorrow's morning

We still have a chance

Come back tomorrow morning

I'm staying

Doctor, they were planning to get married

Please let him stay

O.K.

You made me promise not to die before you

I've kept my promise

But we've been together
only 2 months, not enough

I want 30 years, 40 years, forever, together

There was so much I wanted to share with you

I wasn't aware when you died

You're unfair

Too unfair

Why is happiness so fleeting
