The No. 3 race at Shatin Race Course is 1,600m
No.4...
The odds for No. 4 is 99:1,
what if we lose right away?
Don't put a damper on things.
Have a little faith!
Bo worked very hard on this.
Whether we can make the commercial
will ride on this Six Win ticket.
That's right...
Don't worry! Bo read Bo Le's Classic of Horse Physiognomy as a child.
He knows which horse has the fighting spirit.
No. 4 will win this race.
No.4...
Wan Tai-Kwan! Stop yelling!
We're having a meeting over here.
Siu-Tung, carry on.
Sweet and sour carp is an imperial dish.
Carp is usually used for this dish.
But carp is scaly and not meaty enough.
Modern man may not like it.
I suggest we use mandarin fish instead.
Mandarin fish is meaty and has few bones.
The texture is much better after deep fried.
I think the judges will like it more.
Good position...
No.4...
Be more realistic!
Fung Ming Gui is going on a TV show
to let Silver Ribbon rate us.
Forget about the horse races.
No.4...
Wan Tai-Kwan, you can't be serious.
Since when have you become a gambler?
You really believe Bo can win $30M with $30?
If he can, chop off my head and use it as a stool.
What a surprise!
No. 4 Happy Beans came in first,
No. 9 Track Record came in second...
Miss Chi, I know you were joking.
Your head is not something you let other people sit on.
The odds are 99:1...
I already turned down the commercial.
Why are you following me?
If the mountain won't turn, build a road around it.
If the road won't turn, change your path.
The commercial is not entirely hopeless.
I'm confident I can win $30M to help you break the contract.
We're talking about $30M. You know magic?
But I can win it from the Jockey Club.
I asked Master Tin to place a Six Win ticket.
The horse races have started.
I came to invite you
to watch the races with us at Fung Ming Gui.
You have insider tips?
No. I spent days to pick these 6 horses.
You placed a heavy bet? How much?
$3,000? $30,000?
Where did you get the money?
$30. That's half of everything I have.
Is this a joke, Fung Yat-Bo?
You want to win $30M with $30?
If you manage, everyone in Hong Kong will be rich.
I have enough trouble as it is.
Take your madness back to Fung Ming Gui.
Trust me, Miss Wong.
The horses I picked have strong legs,
belly and chest are extended, flat and straight.
They are sure winners.
Master Tai did the calculations.
The prize money will be $30M.
You can then ignore the unequal treaty.
Look at me... I'm not your Crown Princess.
Why are you so interested in helping me with the commercial?
I know... you're the toad who wants to eat swan meat.
I wouldn't dare.
I harbor no indecent thoughts towards you.
Listen up... I have suitors lined up from here to Nathan Road.
They all have black cards.
Do you have it? Well, do you?
I have an Octopus card.
That's enough, Fung Yat-Bo!
You've been a jinx to me since the day I met you.
I don't ever want to see you again.
Go back to Fung Ming Gui and watch your horses.
Watch out!
Go to hell!
What do you want?
Wear mine.
No.9...
Down to the last 300m...
No. 9 Ancient Times is still in the lead.
No. 2 Sand Circle Icon is close behind...
The final 100m,
No. 9 and No. 2 are neck to neck...
Across the finishing line... No. 9 Ancient Times
A big upset with odds at 99:1...
We won 2 races! I knew Bo is the God of Gamblers.
Chi, forget the commercial,
We'll have enough to open 2 or 3...
no... 4 or 5 branches.
What about the third race?
Another dark horse with odds at 99:1.
Will there be so many upsets?
Definitely!
Counting No. 7 City on Fire from Race No. 5,
The winners of the first 3 races of the Six Win have odds 99:1.
We're down to the fourth race,
will this trend of incredible odds continue?
Who knows?
I don't think so.
They're really dark horses.
Aren't they?
Today, we have seen a miracle.
I have been a commentator for over 10 years,
I have never seen 3 upsets in a roll.
The Shatin Race Course is full of broken glasses today.
Let's take a look at race No. 6...
99:1 odds? I worked for nothing today.
Today's races are rather odd.
Someone told me he can win $30M with $30.
Do you think it's possible?
He's teasing you because you don't know how to bet.
Unless he picks all 6 dark horses with big odds,
there's no way he can win $30M with $30.
The Shatin Race Course has entered the Ice Age.
Dark horses won in the first 3 races of the Six Win ticket.
In this race, No. 5 Steed is the dark horse with odds at 70:1.
Will this string of upsets continue?
Race No. 6 is about to begin...
As the gates open, in the lead...
No.5...
...is No. 10 Red Bean.
On the inside ring is No. 6 Lucky One.
Down to the last 100m,
Red Bean is still in the lead,
followed by No. 5 Steed.
At the finishing line, No. 5 Steed came from nowhere...
We did it...
If Bo really picked all the winning horses,
we can really win $30M.
What is it?
I'm sorry, Miss Wong. The car broke down.
Would you like me to call you another taxi?
Across the finishing line is Road Runner...
Bo is back! You're amazing!
5 of the 6 horses you picked have won.
We're one horse away from winning $30M.
Bo, if I had known better,
I would have placed my own bet.
I'm taking you to the race course next week.
You can help us win a few branches.
Yeah...
Bo, why are you wearing ladies' slippers?
You said you were going to invite Miss Wong to see the races.
Why did you come back alone?
Wong...
A star...
Hello, everyone!
Miss Wong?
Miss Wong, why are you wearing men's shoes?
This pair of shoes... I bought them for Bo.
This is what happened.
Bo came to invite me over to watch the horse races.
The heels of my shoes broke.
Bo didn't want me to walk around in my assistant's slippers,
so he let me wear his shoes.
Bo, thank you.
Next time, you must slow down.
Your shoes are so big, I can't keep up.
You musk be Miss Fang.
Yes! Hello, Sandy!
I didn't come to see the horse races.
I wanted to drop by and apologize.
I'm sorry I'm unable to make the commercial.
Please don't say that. I know it's not your fault.
We're one race away from winning Bo's Six Win ticket.
If we win, the prize money can help you break your contract,
and we can proceed with our commercial.
That's right!
Miss Wong, Bo was up all night working on these horses.
Heaven help those who help themselves.
We have won 5 of the 6 races.
If we win the last race,
you won't be bound by that unequal treaty.
The race has started...
Miss Wong, be careful.
You must be tired from walking in my shoes.
Sit down and get some rest.
The race will be over soon.
Bo, are you confident you'll win this last race?
Judging from its physiognomy, No. 6 Dreamer,
it's comparable to the Akhal-Teke, which was offered as a tribute.
I spent 5 days and 5 nights to pick these 6 horses.
Dreamer is the best one among them.
No. 6...
Come on, Dreamer... why are you so quiet?
Cheer for Dreamer... No. 6...
Down to the last 100m, No. 3 Tiger Cub...
The winner is between No. 9 Lifeline and No. 6 Dreamer.
We don't know which one yet...
They're nose to nose.
Across the finishing line... No. 6 or No. 9?
The camera will decide the winner...
Win by the nose...
Calm down, I can see from here.
Dreamer won by the nose.
We have the result of race No. 8
In first place, No. 9 Lifeline...
Finally, we have a normal race today.
I'm sorry I let you down.
I will try harder next time.
I'll be back.
Miss Wong, I'm sorry I can't help you break your contract.
The prize money is $30M.
If we won...
Bo, no more bets.
Consider this a lesson well learned.
$30 for a lesson is a steal.
You know how to pick a winner, but they rigged the race.
Bo, man proposes, God disposes.
You did your best. Don't blame yourself.
Listen to Miss Chi, we'll find a more practical way to break the contract.
It was fun while it lasted for the first 5 races.
Get down from there!
It was just a small bet.
$30 won't kill you.
Of course it will.
I placed a $30,000 bet,
I was aiming for $30B.
You're the gambling fool.
That's enough! Calm down!
Miss Wong!
Miss Wong...
What now?
Bo was unable to win all 6 races
and help you break the contract.
I must apologize to you on his behalf.
I wasn't counting on him.
I'll sort out the contract on my own.
Sort it out? How? A woman can sort it out?
Let me and my brothers help you.
This is a feud between Dynasty and Fung Ming Gui.
It's not fair to involve you.
Tai-Kwan, right? I have other jobs.
It won't kill me if I lose the Fung Ming Gui commercial.
You know whats most important in this business?
Your fans.
If you're worth it, people will come around and beg.
Sandy!
Sandy, you're so pretty!
Can we take a picture with you?
Of course!
Tai-Kwan, take a picture for us.
Sure. Piece of cake.
Press this button.
Here? Yes!
Ready...
Your Highness!
Are you alright, Your Highness?
Do you know how to take a picture?
Hurry up!
Let's pose again.
The Crown Princess was wounded by the assassins.
I can still remember the scar in her hand.
You said Miss Wong had the same scar?
The look exactly alike.
And they have the same scar in the same place?
That's too much of a coincidence.
You suppose Miss Wong is the Crown Princess?
When you dressed her wound back then,
do you remember how deep and long is that cut on her hand?
I don't remember.
But Miss Wong has made it very clear she doesn't know us.
There's no need for her to lie.
I saw on TV,
people often suffer amnesia if they encountered an accident.
You suppose after what happened in the cloud forest,
the Crown Princess has forgotten who she was?
Siu-Tung is inexperienced, I understand he would let his imagination run wild.
But why would you think the same?
A scar doesn't mean anything.
Miss Wong made so many period dramas,
she could have injured her hand.
Or she cut herself when she was a child.
She told us everything about her past.
I also verified it online.
Her background, her experience...
There's no reason to suspect her.
If we continue to harass her,
she'll only become disgusted with us.
Don't be angry.
Maybe we were over thinking a bit.
I promise we won't suspect her anymore, OK?
Don't waste your time on something meaningless.
Tai-Kwan, I'm sorry I used that tone with you.
(Crown Princess of Zhu Changluo)
Hurry up and try it.
You opinion will affect our decision.
Samuel, Kiu... try it.
Well? Is it good? Tell me the truth.
Very good.
Cold, but delicious.
Comparable to our Dynasty chefs.
Samuel, what do you think?
If you were a Silver Ribbon judge,
how many stars would you give this sweet and sour mandarin fish?
It's cold, but it's worth 3 stars.
Kiu, what about you?
I think it's worth 3 stars.
I had several gourmets tasted it.
If this was eaten while it was hot,
I'm sure you'll appreciate is true worth.
Crispy, fragrant, fresh and tender.
We all agree if everything goes well,
this dish will earn the Silver Ribbon 5 stars.
Mr. Chu, you wanted us to taste this dish,
is it because you're worried if Fung Ming Gui gets 5 stars,
they may challenge Dynasty's position in the business?
That's why you want us to do something?
On the contrary,
I don't want you to do anything meaningless.
Especially you, Kiu!
A friend of mine who works in a consulting firm told me
you assessed Fung Ming Gui's buying price if it managed to earn 5 stars.
You wanted to buy Fung Ming Gui.
You agreed Ivan should be put through the mill
and put him in charge of the project.
You know how much effort he put into this?
If you put a stop to it now,
have you considered his feelings?
I was angry and wanted to buy Fung Ming Gui.
Now I'm not angry anymore.
Can't I abort the plan now?
I will speak to Ivan, OK?
Of course, you're the Chairman.
But if you change your mind that easily,
what would the staff think of you?
What would outsiders think of you?
Mrs. Chu, Mr. Chu didn't do it in a fit of temper.
This is not a good timing for the buyout.
We always buy low and sell high.
All we can do now is wait for the TV program to go on air.
If Fung Ming Gui gets 5 stars,
there's no reason to pay more for it.
But if the judge doesn't like their cooking
and won't give them any stars,
Fung Ming Gui will be worth a lot less.
That's when we should make our move.
Samuel is right. That's what I'm thinking.
Fine! We'll wait till the program is aired
and then we'll decide if we should proceed with the buyout.
I'd like to see how many stars this sweet and sour mandarin fish is worth.
Uncle Fung!
Ling, I'm glad you're here.
Guess what we talked about in the conference room.
I read the memo this morning.
All the department heads were there, except me.
Obviously it's about the buyout of Fung Ming Gui.
You're over thinking. We were taste testing
the sweet and sour mandarin fish by your young chef.
Everyone from management?
I want to tell them Fung Ming Gui will get 5 stars for sure.
So they'll give up the idea of buying Fung Ming Gui.
You said Siu-tung's dish will get 5 stars?
One word sums it all... perfect!
It was so good those guys were almost in tears.
Really?
Tell Chi to be on her toes.
Make sure she keeps up the standard the day of the taste test.
If you can't get 3 stars, I'll buy Fung Ming Gui.
Yes, sir!
You're up!
I'm sorry, everyone.
I was late because the last shoot finished late.
I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
Afternoon tea is on me.
Thank you...
Sandy, have you been waiting long?
I'm so sorry.
You know I'm working on several projects simultaneously.
I'm so tired I don't have time to sleep.
You must know the feeling.
Of course!
Director! What?
When can we start filming?
We will, Sandy! Everyone, get ready!
Come on... 3... 2... 1...
Wait... because I took this job
I want everything to be perfect.
It says here Granny Ming Bo raised Princess Chang Ping,
Look at her makeup, she has no wrinkles!
She looks more like my sister. Right, Sandy?
Baby is right. I'll fix it.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
See? Sandy is the real pro.
Auntie Mei!
Can you help me? I'm in a hurry.
I'm sorry, Sandy!
I'm due for a location shoot.
I'll get someone else to help you.
How long does it take?
The whole cast and crew is waiting for me in the studio.
Forget it. Go get me someone else.
Auntie Mei, why don't you help Sandy?
I'm due for a location shoot. Let me...
Don't ask me to repeat myself.
Right...
She needs a few wrinkles.
You expect her to do it herself?
I'll go tell them I'll be late.
Sandy, you have a good temper today.
Usually by now, Auntie Mei would leave the room in tears.
You used to say few people really hit the big times in this business.
That's why you should ride the wind for as long as you can.
I said that?
2 years ago, I was an extra in one of your films.
I don't know what I have done to offend you,
and you chose to pick on me.
You complained about my makeup
and said I didn't give you the right response.
In the end, I was taken off the front row.
They put me in the last row.
I was outside the range of the camera.
After that scene, you came to me and said,
"That's me. I always ride the wind for as long as I can."
Make her wrinkles deeper.
I'll do that now.
Your Majesty, the rebels have taken Tong Guan.
They'll soon reach Beijing.
The Great Ming's good fortune has run out.
I have let my ancestors down.
Run away before the rebels reach the capital
I must stay and defend the Great Ming till the end.
Please reconsider, Your Majesty! Your Majesty...
Please reconsider...
Cut! What's the matter with you?
No one else can cry but Sandy?
Baby, you're Princess Chang Ping,
your father is prepared to die for his country,
show a bit more emotion, shed a tear or two.
Make the scene more touching!
I'm can't cry because I'm not feeling well.
Let's do this on another day.
Everyone, go home!
I'm not in the mood to entertain you.
I'll talk to you later.
Xiao Qian!
Is the camera set? We're ready, director!
Let's roll! Action!
You're on! I'm waiting!
Cut! I'm sorry, director.
I'll help you fix the formation.
Auntie Fun, serve them some tea.
Why are you holding a cigarette?
Can you stand straight like Tai-Kwan?
Millions of people will see this commercial,
when they see clowns like you,
they'll lose faith in Fung Ming Gui.
Miss Chi is right. When you go to war,
morale and discipline are most important.
There's a saying, "without discipline, the war is half lost."
Attention, soldiers! Yes!
Heads up, chest up, hands on your hips...
Chi, it's not working.
This lot won't do.
Our reputation is at stake. Get someone else
Your Dad is right.
They're pathetic.
How can they represent Fung Ming Gui?
Even if we earn 5 stars,
they'll still be the laughing stock.
Your Dad and I will go change and replace them.
Can you manage?
We definitely look better.
Better get rid of them all.
Fun! Hung! Go change.
Go! Hurry up!
Tai-Kwan, tell Bo to hurry back.
You two look better with Siu-Tung in front of the camera than Dad and Uncle Tai.
You're quite wrong.
If Master Tin wants to do his share for Fung Ming Gui,
you should be supportive.
Miss Pong, Yes? '
While we're waiting, let's do a close-up of Chef Li.
Sure! Director! What?
Just take close-ups of Siu-Tung,
forget anyone else.
OK!
Siu-Tung, you remember your lines?
I do.
Chef Li, it's very simple.
Look into the camera and say your lines, OK?
Ready? 3... 2... 1... action!
You're on! I'm waiting.
Chef Li, don't look anywhere else.
Keep your eyes on the camera. Again!
You're on. I'm waiting!
My cooking will conquer your taste buds.
Chef Li, smile! Don't be so uptight.
Try to relax! Let's do another take.
Siu-Tung, don't frown. Think of something happy.
Smile!
Yes, that's right! Keep that smile. Again!
You're on. I'm waiting!
Chef Li, your eyes.
Look into the camera, OK?
You're on. I'm waiting.
My cooking will conquer your taste buds.
Good take! Thank you.
Let's take a break.
How did I do?
Something is lacking.
What?
Auntie Kiu?
Thanks!
The show goes live in a few days.
Is everything ready?
Are you confident you'll get 5 stars?
You have tried Siu-tung's cooking.
Everyone is confident.
Getting 5 stars in not a problem.
I tried the sweet and sour mandarin fish.
Everyone in management gave it a big thumbs up.
They said this dish will get 5 stars.
Thank you.
Not so fast.
Because I know after Silver Ribbon tasted the dish,
they won't give you any stars, let alone 5.
Impossible! I agreed to do this
because I know the judge is not the one you're tight with.
It's their CEO of Asia.
I may have no influence over him, but someone else does.
I checked. The CEO of Asia
graduated from the Business School of USC in 2008.
There was a student from Hong Kong in the same graduating class.
Cheuk Wah, the CEO of Dynasty.
You're saying Cheuk Wah had it rigged?
No matter what dish Siu-Tung makes,
this CEO will pan it?
Why is he doing this?
Because Cheuk Wah and I are at war.
To beat me, he must kiss up to your Uncle Fung.
What is the one thorn in your Uncle Fung's side?
You know... it's your Dad.
Cheuk Wah wants to pin Fung Ming Gui down.
Trust me. Back out of this Silver Ribbon taste test.
I won't.
You don't believe me?
Everything I said is true.
I don't want Cheuk Wah to win.
We won't back out
and we will get 5 stars.
I won't listen to anything anyone tells me.
I must go.
Auntie Fun, I want you and Dad to stay behind after you lock up.
I need to discuss something.
You've been hiding out here ever since you came back.
Is something troubling you?
Tell me. Let me share your troubles.
I went to see Miss Wong at the studio.
I really think she's the Crown Princess.
What makes you say that?
They were shooting a scene today,
about the end of the Ming Dynasty
and Emperor Chongzhen was ready to die for his country.
I was moved to tears.
Miss Wong was the only other person who was crying.
I can tell her sadness came from within, it wasn't an act.
Really? Really!
You're sure? I'm sure!
Miss Wong has the same scar on her hand as the Crown Princess.
She was moved to tears when the Ming Dynasty perished.
It's too much of a coincidence.
Let's go find Miss Wong now... I mean the Crown Princess.
Don't be reckless.
I've been thinking
we have many reasons to believe she is the Crown Princess,
and we have just as many reasons to believe she's not.
Yes or no? I don't know.
You said as subjects, we should not look up history
and find out our fate and the fate of the Great Ming.
But I think it's time to make an exception.
Let's go home and Google the Crown Princess.
I'll level with you... I already did.
What have you found out?
On the screen, it just says,
Year 29 of the Wanli era,
on her way to the Palace, Crown Princess Guo Qian was attacked
by assassins sent by Zhang Cheng.
All 78 members of the wedding entourage were killed,
Guo Qian disappeared without a trace.
Maybe she came to 2017 like we did.
I don't think we should alert Miss Wong right now.
Give me time to sort things out.
OK! I'm counting on you.
Sipping wine by the east fence at dusk,
surrounded by subtle scent of flowers.
The scenery is soul lifting,
the westerly wind raises the screen to reveal
someone thinner than those yellow flowers.
This is what Auntie Kiu said.
I told you everything she told me.
I don't know what to make of it.
I hope you can help me figure it out.
We have 2 options.
One, Auntie Kiu is lying,
we proceed with the Silver Ribbon taste test
Two, tell the TV station we're backing out.
Those who agree we should proceed, raise your hands.
Those who think we should back out, raise our hands.
Come on! What will it be?
Option 1 or Option 2? Dad?
This happened out of the blue.
How can I decide? I don't know.
We'll do whatever you say.
You always make the decision for us.
I don't know how to choose.
I'll make the wrong choice.
So I'm not picking, you do it.
Fine! I always play the devil.
I'll pick... I'm going for a walk.
I'll come home and tell you what I have decided.
Hey! What?
Option 1 is good.
You're kidding!
I'd pick Option 2, but Option 1 is good too.
Option 2 is good.
Yes, it's not bad...
The heartless suffers less than the passionate,
whose every inch of craving becomes million strands of melancholy.
Even the sky and the earth have their limits,
Only lovers' yearning knows no bounds.
Love usually ends is sorrow,
a sorrow that is never ending
Miss Ling, Siu-Tung, I ran out of paper.
I'll go downstairs and ask Master Tin for more.
More? He's been practicing for an hour.
He practices calligraphy when he needs to think.
I believe something big is troubling him.
Don't be anything like him, you hear?
Tell me if you're unhappy.
Don't keep things to yourself, OK?
You're right! I've been hiding something.
It's time I tell you about it.
Don't tell me you have a wife back home.
Of course not!
I wanted to say, we're not from the countryside.
We traveled in time for 400 years from the Ming Dynasty.
This is top secret. Don't tell anyone.
Don't tell Tai-Kwan and Bo I told you.
I have a secret too.
I'm Lady Yang from the Tang Dynasty.
I was kidding! Enough games.
Go to sleep, We!
Good night!
Good... night!
