The financial industry touches everyone's life.
Prices rise and fall every day.
People have been through many financial crises.
Some have won, some have lost.
Yet Hong Kong remains an international financial center.
But do all the economic indexes really reflect the livelihood of the people?
Some people say numbers don't lie.
But are there people who manipulate them behind the scene?
Here comes Mr Cheuk...
Mr Cheuk...
Mr Cheuk, you're barely over thirty years old.
You're already the chairman of Brainman Group.
You even won the title of "Alchemist of the Financial Sector"
two years in a row.
The financial world is so complicated. How can you make yourself so outstanding?
I've simply been luckier than other people to achieve what I have today.
Actually I haven't met many of my targets yet.
But today I want to share with everyone
the idea that greed is the driving force of progress. Greed is motivation.
Greed is good? He's leading kids astray.
We live in a civilized society.
But in the financial world, it's as cruel as in a forest.
If you're not greedy, you'll be eaten by others.
Of course, during the kill,
you must observe the law and compete fairly.
You need integrity to get what you want.
Mentor, Wong Shiu-lung has shown up.
Action.
Wong Shiu-lung, Commercial Crime Bureau.
We suspect you're involved in a commercial fraud case. Hey...
So I will only be seventy percent full. I always stay hungry.
A person will stay alert only under scarcity and fear.
Then he'll find a way to survive and change himself.
Then he'll change the world.
Take care of the pregnant woman. Hey... Are you OK?
It really hurts.
Stop...
Get out of my way.
What? The police are hitting people. Are cops above the law?
You're doomed. Everyone saw this.
They shot it with their cell phones. Look.
You run really fast. Do run a marathon every year?
Sir, we just work for money.
I'll give you $5 million. Let me go.
That's it?
$10 million them.
How about $100 million?
Sir, can you really take that much? You're greedier than me.
Greed is good.
It's a deal.
Yeah...
Yeah? Do I look that greedy? Are rich people above the law?
Can you make your dead family come back to life with money?
Can you buy freedom with money?
I, Chow Sun-yung, of CCB am well known. You can't buy my integrity.
Besides, it's a breach of the law to take bribes. You want to trick me?
Mentor.
Take him in.
Go.
Don't move.
Go.
Would you choose greed to strengthen yourself
or be eliminated as a loser under the law of the jungle?
Wong Shiu-lung, we received reports that a year ago,
you, as an I-banker of Brainman Investment Bank
withheld material information and made misrepresentations
with the intent to defraud for profit when Engola International bought out
the Hong Kong listed mainland enterprise Big Light Year.
What's your response to the allegation?
I wont answer any of your questions without my lawyer present.
Brother Yung, Wong Shiu-lung's lawyer's here.
I'm his lawyer Yip Kai-bun. I'd like to speak to my client privately.
Fine. Tea time.
Got it. It's an 85 percent match.
Look. This is a wrong entry.
It's a 100 percent match after the adjustment.
Coffee time. It's Mentor Yung's treat.
Thank you, Mentor.
Thank you...
Thank you, Mentor.
Help yourselves.
Why is there only coffee? Mentor drinks tea.
Mentor gave the order. I just executed it.
There are no cakes?
Solar my friend, I, Chu Kwok-leung of CCB, am known to be generous.
Do you want to eat...?
Shut up. Mentor's thinking.
Do you guys believe what that I-banker Wong Shiu-lung said in his statement?
At first he refused to talk.
But after he met with his lawyer,
he then accused his group chairman and said Cheuk Yuk told him to do it.
He was just executing his instructions.
I think he wants to turn prosecution witness.
That's possible. Cheuk Yuk is very clever. We must be careful.
Yes, Mentor.
What's the progress?
Madam...
What have you got?
Madam, you just got off the plane. You came in to work right away.
Have some coffee to stay awake.
I'm OK. Get the documents ready. Meeting in five minutes. Move.
Yes, Madam.
Too bad she's Madam Pushy. I wish she were Madam Slack.
This case is called Operation Tiger Hunting.
The case is complicated. It involves five companies.
We have to check a lot of info.
So I've asked the boss to assign Ella from B Team to help us.
Hello, Ella.
Hi.
Please have a seat, Ella.
Thank you.
A year ago the US company Engola Enterprise wanted to venture into the Chinese market.
So they acquired a Chinese company called Big Light Year.
It's a Hong Kong listed company.
Brainman was the investment bank in this buyout.
Wong Shiu-lung was fully in charge of the transaction.
Big Light Year instructed
Ma Kwok-tung of Sin Man Keung Accountants as is auditor.
Engola is a big international enterprise. Still it got cheated. That's unbelievable.
They were very clever.
Throughout the entire process of the transaction,
they didn't disclose in any of Brainman's working files
that Big Light Year's wholly-owned subsidiary Little Comet was in debt.
Also, they made use of the discrepancies
in the accounting principles of Chinese and Western enterprises to hide many facts.
In the past couple of days, Madam and I have inspected Little Comet
with the assistance of Chinese law enforcement bodies.
The assets mentioned in the buyout
were just a deserted factory and a piece of undeveloped land.
The machines for production are just a bunch of scrap.
According to your instructions,
we brought in Ma Kwok-tung of Sin Man Keung Accountants
and Wong Shiu-lung of Brainman and asked them to give a statement.
Ma Kwok-tung has made a confession already.
It has nothing to do with the other partners of the accounting firm.
In the meantime we have no evidence to implicate the owner of the firm Sin Cho-wai.
For Wong Shiu-lung, there's a new development.
He's suddenly accused Brainman's chairman Cheuk Yuk
as the mastermind behind the entire incident.
Cheuk Yuk has become famous
in the financial sector these past three years.
Last year he joined the Stock Market Advisory Committee
as a committee member.
The biggest partner of Sin Man Keung Accountants
Sin Cho-wai is the vice-chairman of SMAC.
In other words, the people involved in this case are high profile.
This commercial fraud case involves more than $3.6 billion.
High ranking people are involved too.
I believe we'll discover more during the investigation.
Great. We're going into battle again. This time our new target is Cheuk Yuk.
Who are we?
CC Buddy, one heart one mind.
You're right.
OK. Let's go. It's a battle.
Let's go.
Honey, how does it feel up there?
fly with me next time and you'll find out.
This morning you told us to speculate on three pharmaceutical penny stocks.
We're already working on it.
Good.
Boss Cheuk, I can't believe
you still care about making money even when you're high up in the sky.
Tiger, why don't you guess
how much Boss Cheuk can make in the ten minutes or so before he lands?
Figures are just a game. I'm not interested in them.
But I wonder if the real world is like the virtual world.
When someone breaks the record, he'll win the whole world.
Anson, I see the big piece of land for North East Development.
Too bad we didn't have the capital until recent years.
The syndicates already started
building up land reserves in the New Territories more than ten years ago.
Boss Cheuk, I checked for you.
No one is selling the land in the North East Development at this moment.
But the accountant Sin Cho-wai you told me to check on
competed with the syndicates before.
He owns several nice pieces of land.
Good.
Good? You can't buy the land now.
Who says it's too late now?
Honey.
Boss Cheuk, look at your flying data. It would be perfect if it were windier today
You're the security chief of my company. You didn't go to work.
Instead, you came hereto make me use your so-called flying data app.
You've got me wrong.
To do my security job well, I must monitor everyone's computer system.
To me you're the most valuable asset of Brainman. So I must monitor you too.
Next time I'll do deep diving. Let's see how you'll monitor me.
Deep diving sounds really fun.
Let me go online and find out how I can get online in the deep sea.
Honey, when you were flying just now,
the prices of the three pharmaceutical stocks
rose by 40 percent.
You made $100 million. Good.
Hey, what are you checking? It's so easy to make money.
Normal investors have no idea what the pharmaceutical companies produce.
They don't know even if the companies produce diapers.
So long as someone leaks some intel, they'll follow the speculation.
People are like that because they're greedy.
But they're not smart enough. They're too passive.
You think everyone can play the banker like you?
They're just greedy. They rely on their luck.
Yes, Madam. Let's go eat breakfast.
Good morning, Mr Cheuk, Mrs Cheuk.
Good morning.
Good morning, Mr Cheuk, Mrs Cheuk.
See you in the meeting later.
Mr Cheuk, Mrs Cheuk.
Mrs Cheuk, I'll go back to IT.
Good morning, Mr Cheuk.
Good morning.
Good morning, Mrs Cheuk.
Mr Cheuk.
Mr Cheuk, there's a regular meeting in ten minutes.
And you have five appointments today. The material for the meeting is ready.
OK.
Coffee's ready too.
Mr Cheuk, Mr Tsui gave you this book last night.
Master Fat published a new book again. Good.
I heard Gordon was arrested.
Just Wong Shiu-lung? How come?
Hey, what are you guys talking about?
Nothing.
Just chit-chat.
That talkative guy wants to get intel again.
Don't call him that. His nickname's Master Fat.
So? He's just a financial actor.
If Mr Cheuk hadn't given him that title,
given his capabilities, he wouldn't have a seat at the meeting with Mr Cheuk.
Never mind. We have room for him.
If there weren't financial PRs like us to do the talking in this profession,
how would you have such good momentum?
We're just doing our respective jobs.
Hey, I've got something nice for you. An autographed copy of new book.
Don't throw it away. Your mother treats it like treasure.
Master Fat...
Master Fat, congratulations.
Mrs Cheuk.
You've published a new book again.
Thank you, Mrs Cheuk. Thank you very much.
Patrick, I haven't received your report on the Asset Management Department yet.
I'm sorry, Mrs Cheuk. I'll get it for you right away.
Raymond...
Mrs Cheuk, I'll get back to work.
Hey, you're so rude. He gave you his book.
Right. Thank you, Master Fat.
You're welcome... Mrs Cheuk, I'll get back to work.
Mrs Cheuk, this is the agenda for today's meeting.
OK. Let me know when the meeting can start. OK.
Mr Cheuk.
Wong Shiu-lung was arrested by CCB. I've talked to him.
CCB wants to detain him for 48 hours.
He thinks I don't know he's fleecing us through the company projects?
I think CCB got a search warrant. They'll take action very soon.
Mr Cheuk, you need to be prepared for that.
I am. There must be sacrifices to achieve something big.
Let's go to the meeting.
Good morning, Mr Cheuk.
Let's start the meeting.
I hear the China Securities Regulatory Commission will...
Master Fat, say something to get us thinking.
There's a rumor that there'll be a battle over the acquisition of supermarkets.
How keen do you think it'll be?
There isn't much room for development in the retail business of local supermarkets.
It's quite attractive as the cash flow each day is so big.
Yet the interest rate is too low. There won't be much profit.
It's not the cash flow that's attractive.
What's most important now is that this is the era of big data.
As long as we can collect clients' data and analyze it,
we can find out their different modes of consumption and living.
This can help many enterprises decide their marketing plans.
Shall we buy a supermarket group then?
Mr Cheuk, the CCB officers are here.
Bring them here.
Meeting adjourned. Get back to work.
Mr Cheuk Yuk, I'm inspector Ho Sheung-yee of Commercial Crime Bureau.
Engola Group has filed a report with us.
We suspect Brainman Group's management of being involved in fraud
and making misrepresentations.
This is a search warrant. Your cooperation is appreciated.
No problem. We'll do whatever we can to accommodate your requests.
Thank you.
Hello, Madam. I'm Mrs Cheuk. I'm Brainman's COO.
Feel free to tell me what you need.
Thank you.
Two people to a team. Start collecting the evidence.
Yes, Madam.
This way.
Brother Yung, shall we talk?
Get someone to open the cabinet for me.
Excuse me. I need to take away your computer for the investigation.
Be careful. My handbag costs over $100,000.
Please don't obstruct police work.
If you care about so much, you can take it away.
You don't have the key because Wong Shiu-lun hasn't come to work?
Don't lie to me.
Ask someone from Engineering to pry it open.
I'm here to work. Say what you want to say.
You know I've treated you like my older brother all along.
We haven't seen each other in so long. I just wanted to say hello. How are you?
Fine. I can eat and sleep well.
Maybe it's because I haven't done anything against my conscience.
I recently applied for a transfer to CCB, Commercial Crime Bureau.
You may not want to see me again.
Brother Yung.
Don't call me that. Call me Chow Sir.
We live in the same place, but we belong to two different worlds.
Believe it or not, I'm innocent this time.
Come on. When did you ever say otherwise?
Can you be more objective about me? I know I was negligent before.
But Lai's death was an accident. No one wanted that to happen.
You have no right to talk about my younger sister in front of me.
I loved Lai more than you did.
That's enough.
I bet you remember this gold coin. You and Lai gave it to me as a gift.
The two of us are the people Lai loved the most.
I believe she wouldn't want to see our relationship like this.
You think I'm picking on you just because
you got my younger sister killed in the accident? No.
It's because you've done too many illegal things.
That's the way it works in the financial world.
You must accept defeat if you play this game.
I can defeat them because they're not as good as I am.
If you played fair, I wouldn't criticize you
But if someone manipulates the market, falsifies accounts
and engages in insider dealings, then he's cheating. He's a robber.
Excuse me, Mr Cheuk.
We need to take away your computer for the investigation.
Cheuk Yuk, you won't be lucky enough to get away even; time. Remember that.
Ella, take this computer too.
Yes, Madam.
OK. I'm fine.
Hey, the officers are coming.
I'm sorry. We're still investigating this case. No comment.
Sir, tell us more...Sir...
Mr Cheuk.
Mr Cheuk, Brainman Group is under investigation.
Is this related to Engola buying out Big Light Year earlier?
Word is that Big Light Year's subsidiary company Little Comet
has some serious problems. Is that true? Please tell us.
Brainman Group did its very best in that buyout
to safeguard the interest of both parties.
I'm sorry that Engola is troubled by the indebtedness of Little Comet.
Brainman Group is Engola's investment bank. Is it responsible for this?
We will do whatever we can to accommodate CCB's investigation.
But it's premature to say at this stage whether we're responsible for this.
As the saying goes, what's true won't become false
and what's false won't become true.
Hey, what are you looking at?
Mr Cheuk, are you worried
CCB's investigation might affect Brainman's stock price?
Oh, this reporter is very smart. He's my friend. I can introduce him to you.
Hong Kong has a well-managed financial market.
There'll never be a situation where bad money drives out good.
A healthy and law-abiding company won't be hurt by rumors.
I have great confidence in Brainman.
OK. It's going to be tough. Come on.
Madam Pushy's pressing us hard again.
There are so many documents.
We don't know when we'll finish reading them.
That's the way CCB works. You're still not used to it?
Mentor, given your experience, how can we expedite this?
CCB is different from other department in the police force.
We need to outwit the criminals.
We also need to deal with piles of documents.
Our adversaries are computers.
The documents and computers won't respond to us.
You can't bluff them or question them.
You can only read each and every file in great detail.
The devil is in the details.
So we can't be slack or we'll miss things.
Actually there've been oases similar to Big Light Year's case before.
There was the Cheung Luen case in 2009, the Kai Kei incident two years ago
resulting in Kai Kei writing off $2 billion.
The M.0. is more or less the same.
You guys can use those oases as references to break this case.
Chi Nga, you've been with CCB for 6 months.
You've already been following cases thoroughly. You're real smart.
Keep up the good work.
OK.
Get back to work.
Yes, Mentor.
Mentor, just now I noticed that you seem to know Cheuk Yuk.
Do I? No, I don't.
When does your team's shift usually end?
Follow me.
Don't look at me. I won't ask her or I'll get scolded.
But you're Madam Pushy's boyfriend.
Ask Sheung-fei to talk to her. She's Madam Pushy's younger sister.
Sheung-fei.
Don't look at me. I have no say in the office or at home.
Chi Nga.
We all remember what Mentor told us the first day we joined CCB, right?
Who are we?
CC Buddy, one heart one mind.
Come on, Mentor. You do it.
How's it going? Madam.
You guys want to go home?
No...
No. We've been sitting for hours. So we just wanted to exercise a bit.
Let's get back to work.
I wanted to tell you guys that you can go home now.
Thank you, Madam.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you, Madam...
Why are you so nice today?
There's something going on at home.
Yung, I knew you were coming for dinner.
I cooked steamed pork with salted eggs especially for you.
You're really so good to me, Auntie.
It's OK as long as you're good to my Sheung-yee.
Of course...I'm really good to her.
Look. This is new. Is it cool?
Honey, you're so handsome.
Stop trying on clothes. Sit down and eat.
OK.
Let me help you take it off.
Thank you.
How come you don't need to work in the restaurant?
Sis Yee, have you forgotten what I told you earlier?
I said Pd quit my job in the restaurant.
I'm setting up a cafe in Changping with my friends.
Hong Kong style cafes are the trend now. Business will be good for sure.
So I bought a presentable suit for when I talk to the big bosses.
That's true. People assess you by what you wear.
Honey, what you say is so true.
Sis Yee, you haven't been home for dinner in a long time.
Let me get you a drumstick.
That's not how you run a business. You better re-consider.
It's different this time. I'm doing something I'm good at.
I was a cook of Western food before.
He quit because he found it too tough.
Now I'm a managing the restaurant.
He's just a junior manager.
I met the big bosses in the restaurant.
They're giving me a chance now. I must grab it. I'll set up more branches.
Then I'll get the company listed. I'll be rich then.
That's true. I hope Hing can get rich soon.
Sis Yee, I've got everything except capital. Have you made a decision?
I read your proposal.
I also sent someone to Changping to do a site inspection.
You asked someone to check on me? You're treating me like an offender?
The location of the mall is poor. There isn't a good flow of people.
Even if you can set up a cafe there, you still wont get any business.
Changping is just to testing the waters.
If you think the flow of people
and the ancillary transport facilities there aren't good,
I don't mind building my new career in Beijing and Shanghai.
Do you know the rent in China is as high as Hong Kong's?
How can you run a business like this?
If you think like this, I won't lend you any money.
She's going to lose it.
You keep criticizing me.
Then mom shouldn't pressure me to have a kid.
I don't want to be an employee when my son's born.
That's true. You must have a kid while you're still young.
It'll be tough for Man to be an old mother.
Yee, see if you can help your younger brother.
Mom, you'll only spoil him.
Fine if you don't want to help me. Don't criticize me.
When did I criticize you? I'm teaching you.
What kind of attitude is this?
Yung, you're choking?
Mentor, are you OK?
Brother Yung, are you OK?
How are you? What's the matter? Shall I get you some water?
I'm fine. You guys care about each other so much.
I'm just so moved. I'm fine. Eat.
Eat...
There are plenty of opportunities.
Just take your time to talk and think about it, OK?
Eat the pork.
Thank you. What matters is that the family is happy. Eat.
What's the matter?
You're pretending again?
We're fine. Cut it out.
He's not pretending. He's really choking.
You're really choking?
Have some soup.
I told you not to pretend all the time. Now you're in trouble.
I'm OK.
I told you to be serious.
Are you out of your mind? We live on the fourth floor.
There's a surprise on the eighth floor.
What are you doing?
Get a chair.
This place?
You always say you like the layout of this building.
It's convenient to get to work from here.
So I'm always checking to see if anyone's selling.
You bought the flat?
The interest rate is low. Buying a flat is better than renting one.
Clever. This is a hedge against inflation.
More than that. It gives me a reason to find a partner.
I know you want to get married.
I'm old. As your mom said, I have to have a kid while I'm still young.
I don't want to go to my son's primary school graduation when I'm 70.
Too bad my younger brother hasn't grown up yet.
Every family has a black sheep.
He's a grown-up now. He's even married. You should let his wife deal with him.
Too bad she listens to everything he says.
Whenever something happens, she'll ask me to talk to her husband.
Mom's even worse.
Whenever my younger brother gets in trouble,
she'll ask me to help him.
I understand. What about our future? Don't you need to consider that?
I have considered that. I don't just care about my family.
That's why I've enrolled in a one-year course.
When I've completed that, I'll have a chance for a promotion.
You keep studying and taking exams these past couple of years.
You've jumped several grades already.
You want a promotion again in such a short time?
We've only been seeing each other for three years.
That's already so long. flash marriages are the trend now.
Did I hear you correctly? Mentor, I didn't realize you're so in?
Are you belittling me?
No, I deeply appreciate you. I find you so handsome and nice.
You're very good to me. You're a 100 percent good man.
Tell me. Will you marry me?
Later. Let me think about it first, OK? Be good...
OK. Got it. I've bought a flat already. But this is your answer. My heart is broken.
How do you want me to make it up to you?
Let's try the new bed.
Hang Seng Index soared on Monday.
Yesterday there was still support from investors.
It went up another 269 points...
What would you like to eat?
Set A with yin yang (coffee mixed with tea) please.
Set A with yin yang. OK. Set A with yin yang.
OK.
Coffee, tea.
Thank you.
No problem.
Yesterday we went to Brainman in such a high profile way.
The news is at the bottom of the page.
It's smaller than the anti-prostitution operation.
Never mind. Today only old men buy newspapers.
This morning we have Brainman Group's chief analyst M. Tsui Kam-fat
to talk to us about stocks.
Master Fat, how's the market this morning?
The market has gone up for a couple of days.
It needs to take a break.
Rumor has it the big players want to do two things.
Egg-tart. Thank you.
First, they'll boost the market to sell.
If the index falls below 27,100 points, we must leave the market right away.
Secondly, they'll prepare to strike.
Today the market will fluctuate between 22,500 and 22,600 points.
But we must wait for the US data to be released next week.
That's because the big players could change their mind anytime.
We still need to watch. Anyway, the market is unstable now.
So don't put all your money in. Be careful, you may suffer a loss.
Someone has just phoned in. You can talk to her first.
OK.
It's Madam Chu.
No, I'm Miss Chu... I'm Miss Chu. Is it my turn?
Good morning, Miss Chu. What can I do for you?
Hello. I bought some Big Light Year shares earlier at $2/share.
But today I read in the newspaper that it's in trouble.
Brainman is under investigation too.
I want to know if I should hold the shares
or sell them to cut loss and take profit.
Miss Chu, I must clarify something.
Brainman Group is only assisting the police in the investigation.
It doesn't have a problem.
Also, I'm an analyst at Brainman. So I can't talk about our shares.
As for whether you should keep Big Light Year's shares,
I think we need to view it from the perspective of China's infrastructure.
The stock market can go either up or down.
You must be moderate even if you want to be aggressive.
He's not answering the question. But so many people still listen to him.
Thank you very much, Master Fat.
Why does Sis Shim believes that analyst?
Trust Master Fat and you'll know what shares to buy. Thank you for calling.
Bye...
Brother Yung, is the tea OK?
I don't think you care about the tea.
You're so smart. You can always read a woman's mind.
The news report said you guys went to Brainman to arrest people.
Did that company break the law? Shall I sell all their shares?
Miss Chu Kiu-shim, the police can't disclose details. I'm sorry.
What does it matter to you, Chu Kwok-leung?
Hey, Brother Yung, you don't need to talk.
Just use your facial expression or hand gesture to tell me.
Mentor, we should go. OK.
Hey, put it on my account.
Excuse me.
Your older sister is cute.
Are you interested in her? I need a brother-in-law.
Lots of clients called to ask about the company's situation.
So did my clients.
They're afraid the Big Light Year case will affect the yield of their investment.
Most important of all, our share price is under pressure.
The investigation is just a formality.
We'll be fine when the investigation's over.
Master Fat, say something.
I think if we have problems, we should solve them.
We can make it less serious and turn it into a winning scenario.
Turn the crisis into an opportunity.
Good. Why are you guys reacting this way?
I think Master Fat's got a good mindset.
He doesn't bring in problems without a solution.
How do I-bankers survive? We solve any and all problems.
Only we can make a profit whether the market goes up or down.
Do I need to teach you that?
You guys know what to do.
Mr Sin, how is your Sin Man Keung Accountants
affected by the Big Light Year case?
Actually it's the professional misconduct of a hired auditor.
It has nothing to do with the partners of the accounting firm.
The Institute of Certified Public Accountants will follow up.
I know very well your worries, Chairlady. I sit in so many public offices.
I'm even the vice-chairman of SMAC. I should be a good role model.
But suddenly there's a scandal in my accounting firm now. I'm so sorry.
No one wanted this to happen.
CCB is also checking another member, Cheuk Yuk. What's his situation?
I heard his employee Wong Shiu-lung wants to turn prosecution witness.
He's suddenly accused Cheuk Yuk as the mastermind. It's really complicated.
I don't know who's guilty.
Cheuk Yuk has risen so quickly in the financial sector these past couple of years.
He has a bright future.
I don't think he would be so stupid to get greedy like this.
When a person gets greedy...
of course I don't want any committee members to get into trouble.
Neither do I.
But if I find out that someone has done something wrong,
I will deal with it impartially.
I have a duty to make sure the financial market is fair, just and open.
I must protect our reputation as an international financial center.
Pass him...
Come on...
Brother Yung, please have some tea.
Thank you. Come on. Sit down...
I know you want to set up an investment company with Shing.
Come on. Take the money.
No, this is a huge sum.
Both of you are my good friends. You're even my brother-in-law.
I'm happy if you two can set up the company. Come on.
I just want to do whatever I can to help.
Did you borrow the money?
Don't ask. Come on, Lai. Keep the money for Yuk.
Thank you, Brother Yung. OK.
Brother Yung, why don't I add you as a shareholder?
Don't bother. I'm a civil servant.
I have to apply for approval if I want to run a business.
It's troublesome.
I'll repay you once I've made money.
If you want to return my favor, then be good to my younger sister.
Good prospects and luck...
Mentor.
You came up for fresh air too?
I just read the oases that happened ten years ago.
I found out that Cheuk Yuk and his company
were involved in lots of court oases.
But he managed to get away every time.
That's true. He has a team of lawyers backing him.
The accountants provide advice to him. He's hard to deal with.
What about the Gat Ling case?
It was the first time Cheuk Yuk was checked, right?
The investigation of that case has been terminated already.
But I'm really curious. There are many points of doubt.
The police can't find someone guilty based on conjecture. We need evidence.
Get back to work.
Hey, get the drink yourself. OK.
Sheung-fei, I know you're on a diet. So I bought less tonight.
Why did you buy so many things?
Go ahead. Hey, Chi Nga, we're waiting for you. Come on down.
Coming.
Are you OK? I'm fine.
You can't kill me by throwing chips at me.
Bingo.
Do you know from the accounts I checked,
I realize that many of Brainman's subsidiary companies are registered in BVI.
They're protected there. It's difficult to check their accounts.
I checked the telephone records of Brainman's management.
I didn't find anyone suspicious.
I checked their financial statement for the whole year. I didn't find anything.
Hey, I did work too.
Before I got off today, I sent some of the signatures for verification.
See if there's any false instrument. I'm still waiting for the report.
He's a financial crocodile. That means he's way too smart.
If he knows we're checking him,
he'll exhaust all means to hide the evidence.
I thought we could take down this Cheuk Yuk.
I didn't realize it would be so difficult.
That means there's nothing we can do.
I've got something. Look.
Look at this sum of $30 million.
It was transferred through the banks of several countries.
It was deposited on 3 different occasions.
But the date matches exactly when Engola bought out Big Light Year.
It could be the bribe that someone paid to Wong Shiu-lung.
No, there's a big discrepancy
between the sum Wong Shiu-lung told us and this sum.
We still haven't found
the mysterious fake-name account used to transfer money to Cheuk Yuk.
Maybe Wong Shiu-lung took the money for him
and then he paid the mastermind Cheuk Yuk in some other way.
Anyway if we can find out
who the holder of this fake-name account is,
there'll be a new lead to carry on with the investigation.
Yeah...
Anyway what you say is lousier.
Who's lousy?
How are you? Is CCB still investigating you? Are you OK?
It's good that you're fine.
But why is your staff Wong Shiu-lung testifying against you?
Is there enmity between you two?
Maybe it's because I yelled at him all the time.
Has it ever occurred to you that you and I got into trouble at the same time
and CCB came to search our companies all of a sudden.
Do you think someone tipped them off to smear our reputation? Chai Pui-fun!
Chairlady Chai?
That woman's worried we might go after her post.
So she's been looking for a chance to get incriminating material against us.
Women are troublesome.
Damon, why don't we work together?
Help me get the post of chairman.
I'll help you advance. Let's work together to kick this woman out.
Good. But can you include me in your North East Development project?
No problem. But people are still arguing about it.
Let's talk about the project later. Cheers.
You're home so early tonight?
That old chap was so boring and outdated. Has Sonny eaten yet?
I've fed it already...
Those who don't know you would never imagine you're so different at home.
Of course I want to be myself when I'm at home. Where's Ginnie?
Has she returned from her trip yet?
You want to see her about something?
A friend wants to buy her hydroponic vegetables.
You're already so busy.
You still have time to get business for your younger sister?
She's my only family.
What?
In my definition, my wife's not family. She's my lover. Come on.
What? You want to complete it sooner?
Yes. You let me put one piece on it only when I've accomplished something big.
You agreed to play this game.
I know you wanted to use this game to make me work harder.
But sometimes when I think about it,
I wonder if I've given too much for it.
You want to quit? That's not like you.
When did I say I wanted to quit? This game is so fun.
SMAC approves the listing of companies.
The higher I climb, the greater my influence.
Then I can determine which company gets listed as I like.
That's so much fun.
Then you need to kick Sin Cho-wai out as soon as possible.
Both Lai and I were wrong about you.
Why did my younger sister die so early?
Because you were greedy. You opted to be a devil.
I didn't break the law.
You cops have the duty
to find evidence to prove if I've broken the law.
It's not for me to say.
Just wait and see. I will investigate you.
I don't want to talk to you anymore.
