Shanghai Affairs (1998) - full transcript

Tangsan is a doctor living in the poverty stricken area of Shanghai. All the poor people come to him for help because of his kindness. But soon, the Axe Gang enters the picture, and they're ploting to destroy the town so they can build their own casino. Tangsan naturally gets involved, and starts an ongoing rivalry with the gang. But the gang leader's sister meets Tangsan one day, and they begin to have feelings for one another which complicates matters even more.

Brother Yue, you worship Fox God again?

Right,

Fox God blesses Shen

I think Shen's illness can be cured

Why don't you find her a doctor?

Doctor?

They do nothing to cheat money

Not every doctor is like this

You don't know

If Fox God hadn't blessed Shen,

she couldn't survive today

Do you agree?

Remember,

Fox God will cure of Shen's illness soon

All their internal organs have been taken out

Heart, lungs, liver are all gone

Internal organs taken out?

Who will do this?

Have the police found any clues?

They check nothing

They said Fox God, stray dog did this

He won't give up unless he finds the truth

You fear him?

No, I don't

I don't fear him,

I'm just worried

Police won't care this a dime

Tong Shan is only a doctor,

he can't check anything

Right, but

he won't give up easily

In order to prevent him finding out, I want...

Doctor, you'd better stop this now
