Show this to him, if he's OK, sign here.
OK, no problem!
OK! Leave that here.
Yes!
I'm calling from Ling Chi Finance.
We have a new loan to offer you.
The interest rate is 48% p.a.
If you have no problem, just drop by anytime to sign it,
and the money will be in your account.
Thank you, Mr. Chan! Bye!
Scarlett, who's that in the conference room?
I don't know.
I heard he's the new boss of our mother company.
The old man retired and passed on the business to his son.
The mother company?
I've been here a year and have never seen the boss.
Me neither. He's gang-related.
That's what they say. But this business is legal.
You're right. Maybe they laundered their dirty money.
The new boss is tall, handsome, and educated abroad.
The new boss shows up out of the blue.
I'm worried there'll be layoffs.
You know I'm slightly below average.
I hope not. I'm not much better.
I'm slightly above average.
I better start making more calls.
Everyone, please stop working.
I have something to say.
This is Mr. Tai Tak-fai, Mr. Ngai's personal assistant.
Hello, everyone. Sitting inside is Victor,
Mr. Ngai Tak-shun, the new Chairman of Ling Chi.
Mr. Ngai dropped by to understand the company better
and to point out one thing.
We lost a lot of clients over the past 6 months.
They took their business to online finance companies.
These online companies have taken a lot of business from us
and Mr. Ngai wants them back.
You may now get back to work.
I have an offer for you, we can perhaps...
Thanks for your interest in our business.
We can now off $1M instant cash
You may consider 12 installments.
Let me write it down and call you back.
Your email address is...
Mr. Ngai, per your instruction,
we put a bunch of people to track online finance companies.
We finally reeled one in and were meeting tonight.
Good! Follow up. OK!
Wait...I'm coming with you.
I can manage.
I want to know who has the audacity
to make a move on my business.
I see you.
Have some tea. Thanks for your trouble.
$6M, 20%, 3 months.
OK!
Where's the deed? Right here.
Where's the other one?
I'll give it to you next month.
You only get $6M because you have two deeds as collateral.
Now you can only have half the money.
But $3M is not enough!
How about I pay more interest?
Well...$6M, 30"lo, 3 months.
Yes, thank you!
Very well!
Hush...come!
Find her. Yes!
I'll ask again. Who are you working for?
I don't know. I only know it's a woman.
I don't know her. I sleep under the flyover.
How did she contact you?
Word on the street says
a woman pays $10,000 to dress you up
and help her loan out money.
She picks a different person for the job each time.
I finally waited for my turn.
OK! Let him go. That's all he knows.
Take him away.
Get up!
What's wrong? You look like you've been jilted.
Tell me.
You're worried I can’t handle Cheung Hing when they come for Foon-hei?
No, but we were busted earlier
and the boys are still suffering.
I don't want to see them like this anymore.
50?
The upcoming deal is so important,
I don't think we should get side-tracked.
Almsgiving is accumulating the fields of merit.
There are 3 types of fields of merit.
Field of blessings is one of them.
You've been here 3 years, right?
Remember much about Hong Kong?
Yes.
Over 10 years ago, I went back to Hong Kong from here,
to get away from the quarrels of Chinatown.
I retired from the gang and opened a grocery store in Kowloon City.
That day you saved a kid who was almost beaten to death,
and let him stay and help out at the grocery store.
And we thought that was how we'd live out the rest of our lives.
But those guys came back to finish the job.
I paid you to help out at the shop
and you refused to leave and would rather let them hack you to death.
I thought I was helping you,
but you took a hit for me.
Luckily Brother Foon-hei showed up
with his boys and saved the day.
Or else we wouldn't be able to come back here and start over.
Back then, we had no money on us
but a few hundred Hong Kong dollars.
Which was around $2,200 Baht.
Now we own Chinatown.
$2,200 Baht is now a tip we give away.
Honestly, if you didn't pick me up,
I'd be buying used phones on the streets.
Field of blessings is for your benefactor.
I helped you, you risked your life for me.
Brother Foon-hei saved my life, I had to protect him.
You and I are from the same mold. You should understand.
I'll see you later.
See you. Right!
They're ready to leave.
Go standby.
Wait...let me check the ear piece.
Testing, 1...2...3...
You will back me up, right?
Back me up!
Are you alright? Testing...
That hurts!
Are you alright?
Your shirt. To make up for the one I messed up.
This one is new. Take it.
No need.
I have no use for it. Take it.
Thanks.
I'll get out of your way.
Hey. .. What?
For the shirt, let me give you a ride.
No, thanks.
Hop on! Really?
Come on!
Why is my nose bleeding?
You just realize that?
Hold on tight. Stop wiping your nose.
It's ugly.
Nose bleeding is good.
Just like A Moment of Romance.
Except you have the bleeding nose, not me.
Hold on!
Hello, Boss!
Stay away from us!
Get your act together, you junkie!
Give me some dope, please?
Give him a couple.
Thank you, Boss!
Your champagne, Miss!
I didn't order it.
The gentleman did.
Cheers! Sawasdee Krab! Sawasdee Ka!
Thai ladies are pretty.
Where are you from?
Hong Kong. What's your name?
Tanya!
Tanya! Beautiful name!
HEY, Leung Bing! Hey. Lok!
You turned in the money? Have you eaten?
Let's have a chat.
You have both targets in the same room.
Cheuk Sir, take a break. I can do this alone.
I want pork knuckles with rice and black coffee.
I want that too.
Why didn't you jot down pork knuckles with rice and black coffee?
Why do I have to mark that down?
What's the use of knowing what they eat?
You must mark down everything.
The details may not be useful now.
But they may become useful later.
For example Lok ordered black coffee and no alcohol.
But if he claimed drunk driving later,
then this may become suspicious, right?
I wont leave out anything again.
Don't worry. I can take 100 words per minute
Quick is not everything. Be accurate.
What?
Black coffee, not block coffee.
Sorry, Sir!
Can I borrow a porn magazine?
I don't have any.
I saw it.
Wait! What's this piece of paper?
You stole the books?
Take him to the Boss.
Let's go save him.
You know he's the UC?
I don't but I must ensure all UCs are safe.
Brother Pak-key...
Nice handiwork.
No, I didn't do it.
I don't know how those pages ended up in my pocket.
Who are you working for? Thai Police or Hong Kong Police?
No, I'm not.
I didn't betray you, I really didn't!
Speak up! I didn't do it.
Start talking or I'm feeding you to the crocodiles.
No...trust me, I didn't betray you.
Hello!
Is this beer any good?
The taste of malt is rather strong. Would you like to try?
Sure!
But this is for someone else.
I'll get you one later.
Thanks! Thank you!
A toast to you, Boss!
Let's go!
Drive!
Stop!
Take it easy!
I don't know you. Why did you kidnap me?
Let go of me!
Are you a UC?
I'm talking to you.
Answer me or I'll kill her!
I know, you work with the traitor.
If I take you inside,
Brother Pak-key will know I'm innocent and I'm off the hook.
Come with me!
Lok, I'm innocent.
They work with the mole.
Take them inside and Brother Pak-key will know I'm innocent.
Shut up!
You're the traitor!
Boss, they're over there!
Boss, we have trouble!
Bing is dead.
Are you alright?
Well? Are you alright?
I got hit in the head and they got away.
Let's go.
Get an ambulance.
Let's go!
Boss, Bing is dead.
Put pressure on it!
Good job. Thanks.
Cheuk Sir, did we find the UC?
It's Lok and not Leung Bing, right?
Should be.
Lok framed Leung Bing for stealing the books.
That means Lok knew we put a bug on him.
Why did he orchestrate such a melodrama?
For two reasons.
One, he wants to smoke us out.
Two, he's testing us.
For what?
Roger! Roger! We'll talk when we meet.
820575.
602458.
Someone caught on.
There's danger. When will back up arrive?
(Someone caught on.)
(There's danger. When will back up arrive?)
Here I am. I'm Cheng Suk-mui.
Lai Sir sent me as your backup.
I'm SIP Cheuk Hoi of CIB.
We met.
Mind telling us about your mission?
I joined the cadet school at 18.
Lai Sir chose me before graduation.
I was discharged and then became a UC.
My first mission was to get the scoop in Kowloon City.
I worked at a grocery store
and Pak-key was the owner.
Then Pak-key came to Bangkok,
and started the Good Luck Gang.
I've been stationed here ever since,
keeping tabs of his drug trafficking deals between Thailand and Hong Kong.
You said you were in danger in your text message.
I meant last time with you.
Pak-key sensed we have a mole.
I was worried I'll blow my cover
so I asked Lai Sir for backup.
But Lai Sir was gunned down.
He told me there's a dirty cop on the Force.
Dirty cop?
What did Lai Sir say?
What made him think we have a dirty cop?
He suspected someone on the take,
but he had no proof.
He was killed soon after he mentioned the dirty cop.
That's why you tested us.
You're worried we're dirty?
And to ensure Pak-key won't suspect me.
If a UC blows his cover,
the dirty cop would try to kill him and not save him.
Cheuk Sir, are you my new handler?
Unfortunately, no.
But there's something I must tell you.
The brass told me Lai Sir had no UCs in the field.
What? What?
Am I still a cop?
Mui is new to the UC operation.
She hasn't started her training.
Her situation is like yours.
I bet Lai Sir wanted to protect you from the dirty cop
and hid your files somewhere else.
What now?
We made contact and now have the keyword "dirty cop"
When we locate the other UCs,
we should know the truth behind Lai Sir's death.
Lok Siu-fung, can you come back with us and find the other UCs?
You want to see me, Boss?
What will happen will happen.
Someone from Hong Kong showed up.
Brother Pak-key, this is Chui Tin-tong from Cheung Hing in Hong Kong.
I'm here to talk about Chum Foon-hei.
3 o'clock tomorrow, meet me on the boat at Sathorn Pier.
What? Seared?
They came prepared.
I came here, alone and unarmed on a speed boat.
You came with me alone then and were not soared.
You're scared now that we have several hundred men?
It's your business. I'm not soared if you're not.
I knew it won't be easy to protect Foon-hei.
It's up to us to do the job.
Yes, Boss!
Guess why Victor is not married?
He's too brilliant.
I like that.
Hey, Scarlett!
Did you see? Victor is here again.
Maybe he has his eyes on you.
Must be.
Is there anyone who takes a lot of time off?
No one in particular.
Anyone underperforming all of a sudden?
Not really.
Anyone wants to quit?
No.
You didn't know you have a thief among us?
I'm sorry, I'll stay on top of things.
I can't really blame you.
She's out of your league.
Scarlett, do you think Victor has a girlfriend?
You really think he has his eyes for you?
You never know. Life is full of hope.
Mr- Ngai!
Sit!
Thanks.
I think he's after you.
I hope not.
As agreed with the debt collector,
we sell them our loans.
We have a taker for the last 5 transactions worth $9M.
But you wanted me to put it on hold. What should I do?
Hold on, put off the trade.
Sell! Can I get the money by noon tomorrow?
Miss Chan, you wish to take out a P-loan to make a down payment?
You need $1M, but you have no income or collateral,
it won't be easy to get it approved...
(Sold the IOUs for cash.)
(Will be delivered to your designated address around 10 o'clock)
(The courier will call you)
Scarlett, make copies for me.
I'm going to the toilet.
(Closed for the day)
Hello?
I'm round the corner in a taxi. I see you.
Sorry, I forgot we're not open today.
Please sign here.
Airport!
You were quite right, Mr. Ngai.
That woman doesn't leave loose ends,
obviously she won't pick up the money herself.
She'd sell the IOUs to someone else.
Boss, we reeled her in by paying for the IOU.
A money grabber like her
cant part with the opportunity to make money.
Never mind. Just drive.
Such an entourage!
Brother Pak-key, this peanut is really good.
Want some?
Want some more? Shall I get you a crate?
Or you have something to tell me?
It's just small talk.
Chum Foon-hei killed a fellow member in order to get ahead.
Cheung Hing must enforce our house rules.
The Good Luck Gang should butt out.
Really? That's not what I heard.
Heaven knows who has forsaken morality and ethics.
But I don't.
You came alone?
I wouldn't dare bring more men onto your turf.
I'm a peace lover.
I don't like knives and forks.
I'm more than enough to bring him home.
You're not taking Chum Foon-hei with you.
Don't be so sure.
Everyone has a price.
Don't turn me down until you have heard my offer.
How much dope is Foon-hei worth?
1K or 10K?
You hand him over, the goods are yours.
I just want enough money to spend.
A man without ethics is worse than a dog.
Boss, that's our warehouse.
Indeed it is, Brother Pak-key.
Strictly speaking, the goods belong to the drug lords of the Golden Triangle.
You're just a dealer, what would happen if they found out about this?
Better be a dog than a corpse floating in the Mekong River.
If you don't cough up the goods,
I'm turning you into a corpse in the Mekong River.
Go ahead!
It's my honor to bury Brother Pak-key with me.
I named my price, think it over.
Perfect timing.
It's time for my spa.
You're all in the same boat.
As their leader, you want them to go down with you?
Repent and you'll find shore nearby. Thanks.
Let him go.
I see. OK!
Boss, we checked the warehouse.
Nothing left?
They're looking for the goods nearby.
It won't be easy.
Chui 'I'm-tong means business.
We're supposed to ship out the goods next week.
What should we do?
I don't mind if we try to protect Chum Foon-hei on our turf.
But this is beyond our expectation.
You never treated Foon-hei as family.
He didn't really do much for you.
He was just starting out back then.
We paid him protection money,
it was his job to protect you.
But considering the situation,
it's only right that you don't help him.
You don't think he's worth it?
If ask me, he's not.
I know what to do.
Brother Pak-key, she's here.
Brother Pak-key...
I paid for that bracelet.
And this necklace.
I paid for everything you're wearing.
Brother Pak-key...
I don't care if you want to pick up a guy.
You shouldn't have told him where I kept the goods.
Cheers!
Push her off!
Wait!
Pak-key, I started the trouble. It's not her fault.
You'll have trouble if you push her off.
Then what?
You'll do it? Seared?
Scared or not, I'll do it.
