GATAO: Big Brothers (2025) Movie Script
Young Boss.
What time is it?
I don't see anyone from your crew.
I could have just set up a crew for you
if I had known this.
On board. Hurry up.
Move faster and get to work.
Hey, you two. Go over there.
Open the hatch
and bring up the catch.
Hurry up.
As far as I can tell,
you've made quite a lot from this trip.
I'll continue doing business with you.
- Let's call this business...
- Enough, captain.
Let's get the job done first.
I'll call you if I need you.
Deal. Thanks a lot.
Fuck!
Fuck, this whole thing's a goddamn setup!
Come here and help.
Help me.
Tie them up.
Attention, this is the Coast Guard.
You are suspected of smuggling.
Stop your vessel now for inspection.
This is the Coast Guard.
You are suspected of smuggling.
Stop your vessel now for inspection.
Stop your vessel now for inspection.
Look at you.
Hitting the jackpot
on your first assignment.
From now on, just do
whatever I tell you to do.
Fall back.
The iron-hulled ship is getting away.
Shouldn't we pursue?
What for? To start a war?
We are here to search for drugs.
But they fired. Chase them.
Right. I'm aware of that.
I am.
Good thing the iron-hulled ship knew
when to back off.
Did you see this?
After all these deaths,
what matters most
is getting promoted
and making a fortune.
Don't risk your own life.
Boss.
Boss.
What?
Master Hee called.
He's invited you to dinner.
What for?
If it's about the construction thing,
I'm not interested.
Okay.
I understand.
- I'm man enough to date a dumpy chick.
- Just drink. Stop stalling.
Stop stalling. Just drink.
Is there a problem here?
Boss.
All the boys
are enjoying their time in the yard.
Yet you three are having
a secret gathering?
What are you guys up to?
You'd better listen
to every word I say now.
Since you've joined Beiguan Brothers,
people know you are one of us.
So take everything you do seriously
from now on.
Don't ruin our reputation.
Especially you, Ching.
Don't play the hero and act tough.
Among gangsters, there are a lot of
crazy bastards who don't care if they die.
If you keep being so reckless,
you'll get yourself killed someday.
As for Bao, starting now,
think twice before you say anything.
Stop talking bullshit.
You can piss people off
without even knowing it.
Also, Pan,
since you're here, do your best
in honor of your late brother.
I've been talking for so long.
A little response would be appreciated.
- Yes, Boss. Got it.
- Understood.
I heard you, Boss.
Thank you, Boss.
Qiao-en.
Yes, Boss.
From now on, you and your guys
will call him Brother Ching.
But Boss
What's the matter?
You got a problem?
- No.
- He's been in gangs longer than you have.
It's fair for you to call him Brother.
Brother Ching.
What about Bao?
Brother Bao.
And Pan?
Pretty Pan.
Pretty Pan.
Boss.
Are you sure about this?
What's wrong with you?
You got a problem too?
You are their leader.
Are you turning them against me?
Understood.
Here.
Let's make a toast. Here.
Here.
Welcome.
From this moment on,
you're the Five Tigers of the Beiguan.
Hurry up.
Speak.
Brother Biao.
The goods have safely arrived on shore.
Great. We'll wait and see.
Biao,
we've nailed the delivery perfectly.
Your ability is approved.
Is it?
Then why was there an iron-hulled ship?
You received your full payment
with no deductions.
Just think of it as a small accident.
If there's something I don't know,
it means I am not trusted.
Brother Biao,
the higher-ups need to know
if you're trustworthy.
Master Hee.
- Watch your step.
- Masha.
Welcome.
- Thank you for visiting our humble place.
- Not at all.
Great to have you here.
Ben, this way.
Have a seat.
Have a seat.
Here.
Uncle, let me.
Hee,
how's the situation in Taipei?
It's different from down south.
Here, no one says a thing
after you make a call.
Up north, people follow a different gatao.
Things are fine during tea meetings.
But when there's profit to be made,
everyone wants a piece of the pie.
Gataos up north
are a real pain in the ass.
Yung and Hada.
Those two old bastards
are self-absorbed, stuck-up snobs.
Those two old pricks are full of shit.
Hada had gotten away with a hit before.
Mr. Kuei, Hada's blood brother,
didn't even take revenge for him.
They claim to be brothers,
but when trouble comes,
it's every man for himself.
Let's get serious.
This business has potential.
That's why so many people are eager
to get their hands
on Taipei's land.
Master Hee,
now I will be counting on you
to take me to Taipei to work things out.
Here.
Uncle, don't worry.
I believe Master Hee will get
the construction project rolling.
Right, Master Hee?
A toast to Uncle.
- Mr. Hee.
- Yes.
- Enjoy.
- Thank you, boss.
Go on.
Brother Masha, you're here.
Hey, guys, feeling good?
Yeah.
Get high or get out!
It's my treat.
Brother Masha.
Fuck off.
- Huang.
- Brother Masha.
Feeling good?
You limp-dick motherfucker.
- Hey, Mr. Masha.
- Cheers to you.
We'll go to Taipei with Masha
to make a killing
with the construction plan.
Motherfucker.
- Let's hit the ground running.
- Fuck yeah.
I'm going to show those snobs in Taipei
a real money game.
- Fuck yeah.
- I have nothing else but money.
Take it.
Take it.
Come on, even without an invitation,
- I've got the right to celebrate, right?
- Sir, please show your invitation card.
Please hold on a moment, sir.
- Captain.
- See? They know me.
How come you're here?
- Young Boss.
- Please wait at the door.
My young boss!
Even if I don't have an invitation,
I've got to get in and celebrate.
Let me.
You must be a friend of our boss.
You're with me. Here.
Straight from the sea.
As fresh as possible.
- Catch of the day.
- How generous.
You brought a present.
- Let me take you to our boss.
- Sure.
- This way, please.
- I'll leave it with you.
Come on.
Just tell me what you want.
We were in it together.
Don't forget to share the wealth.
I've given you what I promised.
Have you?
One question.
Who will pay for my wrecked ship?
I know what you did on there.
It's a secret, right?
How much?
How much?
Fine. I know it takes time.
My young boss.
Let's work together more.
What do you want?
I've got nothing
but the best deal for you.
All you have done in this place
is dirty work.
Best deal, my ass.
- Look.
- Stop there.
Would you please calm down?
What is this money for?
I've been doing some business
and I'd like to ask you to handle
the sales channel.
If things go smoothly, I'll pay you more.
Fuck you.
Who do you think we are?
We're from Beiguan.
Take back your filthy money, you scum.
To be clear,
we were never here.
But Chao,
what do you mean, I'll be his contact?
Boss told us to keep them
out of this place.
Are you a snitch?
Of course not.
What are you afraid of?
They offered. I didn't ask for it.
A gangster will take any money he can get.
If we get caught
I get it.
You need money for your family.
I've got your back.
Thanks, Chao.
Keep it.
Bring your sister next time.
Fuck you. What's the matter?
Something wrong?
I'm afraid the sales may be too good.
You motherfucker, what's this for?
It's something special. Try it.
Wait for the show.
Now, it's magic time.
Look. His eyes rolled back.
Let me tell you, this is the shit.
People in Taipei are all
snorting this shit.
Are you for real?
Boss.
This shit rocks.
Do you like it? It has potential, right?
I don't care about the price.
Get me all of this.
For you, I'll check every source.
If we take this down south,
we'll make a killing.
Won't we?
Next time I call,
pick up the damn phone, Masha.
I only call
when there's good stuff going on.
Now you call me
and I have to answer no matter what, huh?
Billy!
Hell yeah!
You're up!
Cheers!
May I help you?
Young Boss.
- Have a seat.
- Young Boss, have a seat.
Come in and have a drink.
Can I have a word with you?
You can have a thousand words with me.
- No funny business while I'm gone.
- Fuck you.
What a stack.
Young Boss.
I asked the shipyard how much it'll cost.
They said 20 million wasn't enough.
It costs at least 30 million.
Did you think I would agree?
I'm not asking if you will.
I'm informing you.
I'll take this as the down payment.
A secret is like a fishhook.
Once you're caught,
you'd better follow it.
You're now my moneymaker.
Thanks.
You could have just taken the money
and called it a deal.
Why did you keep on asking for more
and telling me what to do?
Young Boss.
Come in.
Boss.
Master Kuei and Master Yung are here.
Brother, your legs are better now.
Not really.
I have to sit on the toilet to pee.
I haven't had sex in forever.
Brother, at this age,
be thankful you can still pee.
Stop comforting me.
People are saying that without you guys,
the Beicheng gang would be history.
Don't say that. We're all brothers.
We must take care of one another.
If it were us,
you would have done the same.
That's right.
Don't worry.
Stop overthinking these things.
Mr. Hada, your health matters more.
In the morning,
after he gets up,
take him to the park for a walk
like casual rehab. Got it?
My dad just wouldn't go out.
Then drag him out.
Recently,
Hee's construction project
has been rolling.
I think
soon enough,
he will come to us for a talk.
That spineless prick.
If he dares to come,
I'll beat him to a pulp.
It's not just you.
Even my gang cannot accept
the way Hee does things.
What do you say, Kuei?
I'll follow your lead.
We are blood brothers.
Do you hear that? We're on the same team.
Relax, keep it cool, and do some exercise.
Let's play mahjong. I'll help you win.
- I'll also help you win.
- That's right.
Why don't you just give me
the pot instead?
That's different.
Give you the pot? You're not one
of those spineless pricks, are you?
Boss.
The two bosses seemed
to have a firm attitude.
They didn't seem to like
working with Master Hee.
What do you think about this, Boss?
I got my own take.
Speaking of Hee,
what he wants is the land in Beiguan.
That bastard won't give up easily.
This construction project
has strong government support.
It spans across eight districts
involving the Ministry of Transportation
and Communications,
the Ministry of Education,
the Ministry of Culture,
and the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
We will build 16 commercial buildings,
four light-rail lines, three hospitals,
and two schools.
Beiguan
has long been a hub for business.
The value of this place will only go up.
Now, what matters the most
is protecting the livelihoods
of the local people
and maintaining the profit of our gang.
- Young man, no point in talking so much.
- Liar.
These are just fancy words.
How long will it take to build that?
Plus, where would our people stay
during the construction?
You didn't answer at all.
Just because we wouldn't move,
you have gangsters mess with us every day
so that we cannot run
our businesses at all.
- Don't worry, everyone.
- Win-win?
- It's just you guys making all the money.
- We are a responsible firm.
- We're against it.
- If there are such problems,
we will have our staff fix them for you.
Your future is also our future.
I will build you a home.
Please trust me.
What if we go talk to Master Hee
and he agrees on the terms we proposed?
We won't go talk to him.
He should come to talk to us instead.
But here's the problem.
What should we tell Mr. Hada and Mr. Yung?
As long as Hee is willing
to offer us enough money,
Hada, Yung, and I
can talk about anything.
We are The Three Musketeers.
But Boss,
do you think he can offer such a deal?
As far as I know,
he's a money-grubber.
All take and no give.
It'll be difficult to make him pay.
It doesn't matter.
We'll play it by ear.
Fine. Play it by ear.
Master Hee,
you all saw what just happened.
It got chaotic
with so many people protesting.
My point is,
there were government officials present.
I'm worried tomorrow's headlines
will say "Government-Business Collusion."
From my position,
it'll be hard to fix this situation.
Billy, those who just protested
are mostly holdout residents.
Isn't that quite normal
in a public hearing?
Yes, we understand that.
What I'm saying is,
while we make money together
and take what we deserve,
shouldn't we also think
about compensating the residents?
Maybe
We should
Are you telling me what to do?
Of course not, Master Hee.
I wouldn't dare.
I just want the whole project to be
carried out smoothly and successfully.
That's why I brought it up.
I'll have my men work on it.
This is our first public event.
I won't make myself look bad.
Ms. Fei wants you to head down south
for new business.
It's a big one.
See you later, Mr. Hai.
- Take care.
- Goodbye.
- Master Hee.
- Goodbye, Master Hee.
Mr. Hai.
This is the man
I've been talking to you about, Biao.
Mr. Hai.
Mr. Hai.
Masha.
- Careful, Uncle.
- Goodbye, Mr. Hai.
Masha. Biao.
I've tried out your stuff.
Not bad.
I'm flattered.
I look forward to working with you.
I have a large demand.
Don't disappoint me.
GUILI CONSTRUCTION
Brother.
You know that in our renewal plan,
the land in Beiguan is crucial.
Of course, I know it's crucial.
In fact, many people
have come to me to discuss this.
There are emotions involved.
It's not as simple as replacing
the old with the new.
People will lose the places
that spark memories for them.
Besides,
it'll make me look bad.
What do you want me to do
to make you look good?
Brother.
This project is tens
of billions of dollars
and your company has it all.
Pardon, Master Hee.
Allow me to interrupt and say something.
I believe that Master Hee knows this well.
All this time, profits from earthworks
have gone to the respective gataos.
It's absurd for your company
to take over our land.
That doesn't make sense.
If word gets out,
my boss and I will have to pack it up.
Wouldn't you say?
It's only logical.
The construction firm decides
who gets the job.
Don't make trouble for me.
Master Yung,
Hada, and I have had a conversation.
Master Yung was more concerned than I was.
As for Hada,
you know better than I do.
Since you've already talked to them,
what am I even here for?
Are you playing dumb with me?
You said it's out of your hands.
You're the one who is playing dumb.
So Kuei,
you speak on behalf of them?
Goodbye, Master Hee.
He was really playing dumb.
Do you have a cigarette?
My boss needs a favor.
That's why he had a lawyer get you out.
So, what's it going to be? Mouth or hands?
I'm from Daqiaotou.
What do you want from me?
I checked the visitor record.
Daqiaotou? Did any of them come?
It's none of your damn business.
Bo.
Tsai.
- You're off work this early today?
- Yeah, wait a minute.
I bought some oranges for your dad.
Thanks.
Also
Here.
Aren't you going to hire a caregiver?
I can't take this.
You've already helped us so much.
I'll do anything you ask. I'm sorry.
Damn it!
Why didn't you follow my rules?
How come you handled
the business your way?
You're here, Mr. Scorpion.
Yudao, I'll leave him to you.
That will leave a scar.
You motherfucker.
I want to work with you.
You're a pro, Biao.
You're a pro.
We'll make a killing selling this.
Do you have any crew on your end?
What kind of question is that?
Is the sky blue?
Scorpion, no need to talk like that.
I'm trying to work with you.
You want me to be your lackey?
No way.
I see you as a partner.
There's no boss or underling between us.
Fuck.
You motherfucking coke head.
Bobo is such a vacuum.
I'm a vacuum.
A vacuum.
She's a vacuum.
Bo?
Police.
A cop hitting a club?
How come you're here?
Fuck.
Freeze. Police.
- Drop the gun and put your hands up.
- Which one first?
- Drop the gun or put my hands up?
- Drop the gun and put your hands up.
Buy me a drink first.
- Let's grab a drink. Party on.
- Okay, grab a drink.
- What's wrong?
- What's the matter?
Stop there.
Police! Stay where you are.
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
Enough, get in the car.
Uncle, come eat.
It's hot. Careful.
Here.
Listen.
Do you have a client named Scorpion?
I don't know.
Don't lie to me. I saw everything.
So what?
He's just a client.
You've worked so hard to get clean.
Is this what you call starting over?
I'm not addicted.
How many times have you said that?
You're still young. You have a future.
If you want to quit, you can.
I can help you.
How?
Do you think giving me money
is helping me?
How long can you keep helping me
like that?
And how long can you keep
working like that?
You think I don't want a normal life?
Honey, it's lunch time.
I'm not hungry. You eat first.
You've seen my dad's condition.
Can I afford not to work?
You think I'm like you
and I can choose the life I want?
I'm done eating.
I'm going to pick up Bo from school.
Dad.
I am Bo.
Where are you going?
My wifey, wait a second. Bo's almost back.
I am Bo.
Uncle, Brother Wen-Cheng.
Running into an old friend here, huh?
Mr. Ko.
Uncle.
Scorpion's working for me now.
He's doing great.
If he's a talent, then keep him with you.
Thank you, Uncle.
Please.
Boss, excuse me.
Biao, come.
Not bad.
It looks like you really listened
to what I told you.
However, in the future,
if you want to work with us,
the Daqiaotou gang,
you'd better not act like a nut.
Ever since Michael left,
we've been lucky to have you.
You've helped us stabilize
Daqiaotou's business
and looked after the younger guys.
You're too kind.
Given my friendship with Michael,
it's the least I could do.
Besides,
the market up north is only so big.
It's all about who makes the money first.
You talk just like Michael.
Like you said,
I'll go out and live my life.
Who knows?
Maybe one day, I'll be the boss.
When that day comes,
what I say goes.
If that day ever comes,
I'll congratulate you.
Actually, Michael's path was right.
He always wanted to break with tradition
and run things like a business, like I do.
But he just moved too fast.
Now that Daqiaotou's business
has settled down,
if you need anything in the future,
just say the word.
Thank you, Uncle. I'll take my leave now.
Brother Wen-Cheng.
Take care.
Boss,
he uses our name to sell his products
and we even handle PR for him.
After Michael left,
if we didn't have him,
Daqiaotou would've been in chaos.
But when Michael got into trouble,
Biao didn't even ask about him.
He works with us now
only because there's money to be made.
What's wrong?
Brother Chao.
I was thinking
we shouldn't do this anymore.
What the hell?
Are you scared of making too much money?
I really am scared.
I'm likely to be busted.
Boss is watching closely.
If I get caught,
I don't know what will happen.
Seriously.
Let's just stop.
How about this?
Let's do it one last time.
Brother Chao.
Take this.
Sorry. I always finish the whole bottle.
The tiny supply you gave me
was like child's play.
That's all the supply you get.
We agreed on these terms.
But I told you back then
that if sales were better in the south,
we could divert stock
originally allocated to the north.
Didn't I?
It's just something you said.
Did I ever agree to that?
The more I sell, the faster you profit.
Can't you do the math?
What kind of bullshit are you saying?
If everyone asked
for more supplies like you do,
how can I keep up with it?
Is that so?
But I'm out of stock now.
What do I do?
You're bluffing.
You think so?
Fine.
I promise.
I'll increase your supply
in the next shipment.
Next shipment?
Do you think I came
all the way from the south
just to be told to wait my turn?
Biao.
Do you understand this foreign shit
he's speaking?
Shut your mouth, you motherfucker.
Hey!
This is Taipei.
Show a little respect.
And you
Just came here from the hair salon?
Young man, you've got some nerve.
Not bad, huh?
That's all, right?
Let's go.
Fuck off.
Biao.
In your next shipment, I want it all.
Do you hear me?
Not a single gram less.
You're killing it.
Boss is here.
Boss.
- They're inside.
- Good.
Lord Guan.
I, your follower Ren,
would like to first apologize to you.
Someone in my crew
was selling drugs around,
so I'd like to use your place
to deal with this matter.
Please forgive us.
Do you admit that you were selling drugs?
Boss, I am sorry.
I won't do it again.
Again?
Be honest.
How did you get the guts
to sell drugs in the neighborhood?
Boss, I am really sorry.
My grandma's sick and she needs a doctor.
My sister is still a student.
My family really needs money.
Then why didn't you ask for help?
Or do you think none of us
are capable enough,
so you have to sell drugs to make a living
and work things out?
Fuck.
You made your move,
so now you pay the price.
- Ching.
- Yes.
Boss.
Can it be someone else?
After all,
I've been in Beiguan
longer than they have.
I'll do it.
Enough.
Hao.
You reap what you sow.
No complaint.
From now on, you are no longer one of us.
Listen up, all of you.
Anyone who dares to sell drugs here
will have me to deal with.
That's enough.
Are you trying to beat him to death?
Let me help you up.
Hang in there.
Hang in there.
Where are Chao and the others?
I told them to go home.
Why are you home so late these days?
You drink more than you used to.
Don't act like you don't know me.
Before we got married,
you already knew what I did, right?
I'm sorry.
There are some issues in the gang
and I have to handle every one of them.
I have no choice.
Do you think I like doing it?
Have some water first. Don't spill it.
You wouldn't understand this.
When you're not home, I'm all alone.
I feel this house is quiet.
You get bored?
I mean,
if we had a child,
I wouldn't be bored anymore.
Okay, let's have a child.
If so, we need a little plan.
You're so cute.
What plan do we need to have a child?
You're so busy with your work.
Will you have extra time for us?
Besides, if we have a child,
you need to be more cautious
about everything out there.
In case something happens
I'm done eating.
Honey.
I guarantee you there's no chance of that.
Captain, Scorpion isn't facing any charges
for guns or narcotics.
Don't you find that suspicious?
Does he have someone backing him?
He could be the one who killed
that drunk guy at the baseball stadium.
Are you done with all the talking?
Do I need you to tell me what to do
and what to say?
If you're that good,
you can take my seat.
- Take it. Come on.
- Captain.
Take it.
If you want to stick your nose
into these matters,
you'd better work hard to get promoted
without making mistakes.
When you become my boss,
I'll listen to you by all means.
But until then, just know your place.
Don't make trouble.
Come on.
Drink with me.
Come on.
Bo, don't leave me.
Don't leave me.
Wen-Cheng, let me tell you.
This place is always booked up.
Even money won't get you a seat.
But for you,
I've rented the whole restaurant.
Enjoy it.
We're not done talking business.
It takes mutual understanding
to sit at the same table.
Do you think I appreciate your treat?
Your friend, Biao,
doesn't want to make money.
He was out of his mind
lecturing me about rules.
What rules are there in gang business?
Money is the rule.
That is correct.
As for me,
I only have one rule.
Money is all that matters.
- Money makes everything possible.
- Bravo.
I love that.
Let me say this.
The beef in this hot pot
is for everyone at the table.
We can both have some.
I have nothing but money.
Then this is our mutual understanding.
This beef looks delicious.
Let's enjoy it.
Have as much as you want. Help yourself.
It's all my treat.
How does it taste?
Terrific.
I should have come to you earlier.
It's in great condition.
- Nineteen-inch wheel, right?
- Yes.
Which one is faster? Mine or this one?
Over 60 miles per hour, this one flies.
- Does it?
- Yes.
I'm looking for a getaway car.
It flies.
Our dear guest, Mr. Tsai,
your car is parked in the red zone.
It might be towed by your colleagues.
Fuck. Come out.
Officer.
Back off. I'll pull the trigger.
I believe you.
Officer.
Calm down.
Don't move.
Drop that thing.
Drop it!
Back off.
Officer.
Don't you think
it's a good time for us to have a talk?
Bo, don't leave me.
Don't leave me.
Let's have a talk.
It's Kuei.
Kuei,
long time no see.
How about coming in for a chat?
They drove in.
Boss.
Good morning.
Mr. Kuei, my uncle ordered us
to roll out the red carpet for you.
- This way, please.
- Sure.
Ren.
- This way.
- Okay.
Mr. Kuei, this way.
Okay.
Uncle, Mr. Kuei is here.
Boss.
- Have a seat.
- Sure.
- You're here.
- I am.
- Have a seat.
- Yes.
Ren, make yourself at home.
Boss, this place is magnificent.
It's just a humble place.
You're welcome any time.
I'll take you up on that.
Now,
I won't beat around the bush.
Let's get to the point.
Boss,
please do.
I asked you here to talk
about the construction project
in the north.
How come you and Hee
didn't reach an agreement?
Mr. Hai is well-informed.
Boss, why do you care so much
about the project in the north?
Come on.
I care about my old friend.
I hate to see my old friends
fighting over a small profit,
making a fuss,
and hurting each other.
Boss.
I don't know what Hee told you.
You know more about Hee
than I do.
In our line of work,
there is a line between fair profits
and dirty money.
You should know this better than I do.
Isn't it promising
to have such buildings in Beiguan?
That's right.
Boss, but I have so many things
going on in Beiguan.
This huge project involves
people's feelings
and companies' profits.
I really don't have the time for this.
Fine.
- I'll do it for you.
- Boss.
The place is full of my old neighbors.
How can I let an outsider
put his hands on local construction?
If we dealt with it that way,
how would we explain it to people?
After all,
they call me "Mr. Kuei"
for a reason, right?
Kuei.
You're so stubborn.
You won't work this way
and you won't work that way.
Seems to me like
you are turning me down.
Kuei,
if this is the case,
how can we still be friends in the future?
Boss, with all due respect,
I'm here
because I wanted to visit you
and make my stance clear.
I hope you understand.
Then I know
what needs to be done.
I appreciate your visit.
You may go now.
It's fine.
Thanks for having me.
Let's leave.
Excuse us.
Pardon.
- Excuse us.
- Pardon.
Would you back off?
Make way for us to pass.
Excuse us.
Excuse us. Are we good?
- Back off.
- Please.
Don't you want to stay for a while?
Leave them.
Dao.
- Excuse me.
- Pardon.
Back off.
Boss.
Thank you for the tea.
Next time you're in Beiguan,
I will be sure to treat you well.
Back off, please.
Our car is coming through.
Open up!
Goodbye.
Come on.
You finally show up.
Bo is here.
Come on.
Latecomers have to snort three lines.
- That is the rule, right?
- Yes.
Can't I just have a drink?
Please?
I want to smoke.
Do you fucking know what you're here for?
You're here to work your ass off,
not to have fun.
You're such a cutie.
Bo's going to snort a line.
Snort a line.
One line for Bo.
Come on.
How about some encouragement?
- Don't be so quiet.
- Bo's first line.
- Are you not going to cheer for Bo?
- Bo.
- Bo.
- Bo.
- One, two, three.
- Bo.
Fuck you,
the people behind you all have guns.
You got it? Fuck!
Where the hell is Bobo?
She's in the bathroom.
She's in the bathroom?
Then drag her out.
BROTHER TSAI
Fuck!
Damn cop tried to trick me.
I've talked to Masha.
In addition,
I've settled everything for you.
Here's the deal.
You supply the goods to me.
Daqiaotou sells them to Masha.
This way, you get to save face,
Masha gets his goods and we make money.
Do you get it?
Does Mr. Ko know about this?
This matter is important.
Of course I told him about this.
Let me tell you.
If you want to do business
without using violence
and putting your life at risk,
the only way to make the most money
is to negotiate.
But Brother Wen-Cheng,
don't you think this whole thing is weird?
Masha gets his supply
from you instead of me.
What's wrong with it?
But your supply comes from me.
Yes, it does.
Why is he willing to pay you more?
Everyone knows he's rich.
If he's happy with it, what's the problem?
- Brother Wen-Cheng.
- What is it?
The way they do things is domineering.
-If we go along with them,
-I think you're the domineering one.
-The whole market
-He offered you a lot of money.
- Will be claimed by them.
- But you turned it down.
Do you want me to spell it out for you?
What they're doing is obvious.
- Biao.
- I
Uncle.
Have a seat.
Biao.
I heard everything you said.
But Wen-Cheng has made a promise to them.
The Daqiaotou gang has a solid reputation.
A promise made is a promise kept.
Then I shall thank Brother Wen-Cheng
for this.
Biao.
Come take a walk with me.
Okay.
- Sir.
- This house is well-built.
- This way.
- Hello.
I'll go keep them busy for now.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Please have a seat, sir.
Okay.
Hello, I'm Billy.
Hello.
- Did any of our staff offend you?
- Not at all.
- She's good.
- Really?
We brought cash here to buy out
your entire construction project.
- Is this enough?
- All of it.
If it's not, we have more.
All right. Save it.
I know that you're here to cause trouble.
What do you want?
No need to go there.
This is the young boss here.
Show some respect, all right?
He's so thoughtful
that he bought up all our land.
You son of a bitch!
Listen up.
This is Taipei.
You don't get to call the shots here.
What are you looking at?
What?
Your face tells me something's wrong.
- Something is on his mind.
- You're upset because Ching told you off?
You know what this is?
Hell money.
Be smart.
Don't mess with us.
Otherwise,
you'll need this in hell.
Bao, enough. Let's go.
Enjoy it as much as you want.
Let's go.
What a rational negotiation.
They gave me this crap to curse me.
How should I explain this to my dad?
How do I explain this to Mr. Hai?
They even talked
about rational negotiation.
As if I was happy about it.
Boss, it's all on tape.
It's the Beiguan guys.
Well, Master Hee.
I guess I'll be delivering
your special present
ahead of schedule.
Ren, have some premium tea.
It's 50,000 a bag.
Cut the crap.
That's such a weak brag.
Come on.
If it hadn't been for those bastards
who busted my joint,
I would have already taken you over.
Consider yourself lucky.
I wasn't going to bring this up.
My son, Chun, is still too green.
Please look after him for me.
Come on. Don't be silly.
Of course I will.
That bastard let me live.
Now I'm in worse pain than death.
Insulting me is fine,
but insulting you guys is not.
In northern Taiwan,
we are the few old-timers left.
Shall we make our move?
My brother, don't worry.
When it's time to act, I will.
Take care of your health first.
You're not the one
who's going to get killed.
- Hurry up.
- Done.
- Did you turn off the hot water dispenser?
- Yes.
Let's go.
IRON DOORS AND WINDOWS, STAINLESS STEEL
AND ALUMINUM DOORS AND WINDOWS
DOWN THIS ALLEY
Boss. Sir.
Lightbulb, what were you doing?
What took you so long?
The traffic was so heavy.
Boss.
Chun, go buy me some braised snacks
and fish head soup.
Congee, Lightbulb. Did you hear that?
- Hurry and go.
- Okay.
You go.
You know which joint I like.
Take them along with you for a meal.
Dad, I'll stay and keep you company.
What for? I'm about to bang a broad.
Are you going to cheer me on?
Got it.
Chun.
You should be more disciplined
when doing things.
Don't be reckless.
Don't just hang around
and waste your time all day long.
Lightbulb and Congee,
take good care of your boss
and the company too.
Be careful with what you say. You hear me?
Boss, I got it.
Dad, I got it. Take your time.
Boss, we're leaving.
Boss.
Hey, bro. Pardon me.
Sorry for making you wait.
You just got off?
- Have a drink.
- How was your day?
How was my day?
I rolled the dice and won it all.
All right.
Go take a shower.
Don't take too long.
I'll pop some pills
and give you a wild ride in bed.
Boss.
Get in there. This doesn't involve you.
You picked the wrong road.
Take him away.
Move.
Hee, I'm not letting you mess me up again.
Farewell.
Boss.
Boss.
Things went wrong. Mr. Hada is dead.
Yung, are they after you or after me?
It makes no difference.
Your trouble is my trouble.
I'm a gang boss,
yet I need you to take care of my gang.
Why don't I just kill myself?
My dignity
When do I get it back?
Are you going to fight them or not?
If not, I'll do it myself
with my last-ditch effort.
Big Brother.
No wonder you wanted to start a war.
Turns out you were ready
to trade your life
to preserve your last shred of dignity
as a gang boss.
Hada!
You didn't let your brothers down!
We are The Three Musketeers.
We are blood brothers.
After this, let's go dancing.
Shall we make our move?
My brother, don't worry.
When it's time to act, I will.
You're not the one
who's going to get killed.
I'll take care of this.
I'll let you have this one.
I don't need that.
Big Brother, you have lived a tough life.
In the next life,
let's not be gangsters.
Let's live ordinary lives.
Dad.
Dad.
Dad.
I bought you the fish soup.
Come and have it.
Have it while it's still hot.
Dad.
Didn't you want some fish soup?
I have it here.
Dad.
Why can't I just die already?
Your son, Chun, is not ready.
Chun.
You should be more disciplined
when doing things.
Don't be reckless.
If you get into trouble,
I won't be able to protect you anymore.
Didn't you say I'm foolish?
Now get up, scold me, and punch me.
I don't care.
Dad.
Dad.
Get up.
Dad.
Dad.
Get up.
Dad.
Brother.
You go first.
Perhaps I'll follow you later.
If you want payback, come find me.
Brother, it's all yours.
Ko, you always know where I am.
I read you like a book.
You and Mr. Hai want to take over Taipei.
Do you think I can boss Mr. Hai around?
You're giving me too much credit.
You have really crossed the line.
The Daqiaotou gang won't let you off.
Can't you see Daqiaotou
is being taken over?
No wonder your son
wouldn't stay there with you.
I can't just call off the construction
on a whim.
Mr. Hai is backed
by a group of stakeholders.
They all want a piece of the pie.
The upcoming election
will also cost a lot.
You all say I'm the aggressive one.
Haven't I tried to talk things through?
Who's the aggressive one?
I'm indeed a businessman.
But before this,
I was a gatao
and I grew up with those three.
Do you know that?
Ko,
we've known each other for decades too.
Does it really have to come to this?
You were the one who took out Hada, right?
Do you think I don't know that?
Hee,
would you stop smiling?
Ko,
I'm done smiling with you.
Despite all our fights,
we knew our boundaries
because we had been gataos
since we were young.
All this
was stirred up by Hee.
What makes him so fearless?
He has a crew of killers
watching his back.
I've found them.
Take care of them for me.
Fucking hell!
Stole my kill.
Get back here now.
We'll deal with it later.
Get my stuff ready.
I'm going down south.
Understood.
Mr. Kuei, our boss has ordered us
to do whatever you tell us to do.
Don't worry.
I can't locate Hee.
I think he's probably hiding in the south.
Uncle, I've been expecting this.
My crew is ready for it.
This time, we'll definitely kill him.
Not you, Chun.
You stay up north.
You have to watch over our turf
and keep me safe, understand?
Indeed.
Uncle, this task is important.
I'd better get moving now.
I won't be there with you two.
Don't disappoint me.
Fuck.
Boss, Feng and I will leave now.
Ren.
Yes, Boss?
On your trip to the south,
things will get really messy.
But don't worry.
I'll handle whatever comes after.
My point is
just be careful.
Got it, Boss. I'm off.
Ren.
All right, Boss.
Don't overthink it.
Let's have some tea together
when I get back.
Ren.
Huowang.
- Long time no see.
- Long time no see.
- How are you lately?
- Not bad.
Huowang.
Brother Feng.
- Are you good?
- Not bad at all.
- Come on in.
- Sure.
What's going on with that matter?
How did it expand to the south?
There are a lot of rumors going around.
It makes my head spin.
Now,
are you here to fight southern gangs
or to fight Hee?
Brother,
I trust you, so I'll be honest with you.
You know what kind of guy Hee is.
He escalates things.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have
to ask for your help.
That Hee
But I can only back you up this far
on this matter.
When it comes to local gangs,
there are lines I cannot cross.
I understand, Brother.
This is more than enough.
As the saying goes,
it takes a strong fire
to smoke a rat out of its hole.
Huowang, your help is important.
Thanks a lot.
Okay, then.
I prepared a few souvenirs just for you.
Come take a look with me.
Here's another case.
Huowang.
This is from the same batch as ours.
Right.
Mr. Ko has spoken.
I don't really have a choice.
Contact Tsai for me.
Tell him we're sending him a big present.
Just say
the guys in the south
are coming up north for a deal.
Ask him to be ready to act.
That's Daqiaotou's business.
Do we really need to get involved?
This is way too risky.
He's a cop.
Then all I can do is take my chances.
Do you really have to go all-in?
When's the deal?
Understood.
Mr. Wen-Cheng.
Where are the goods?
Where's the money?
Dao.
Sir, all good.
Doing business with you southerners
is satisfying.
Exactly.
Go on. Bring out the goods.
Mr. Wen-Cheng.
I'm going to be the sole distributor,
so I'll be counting on you.
- We should've met sooner.
- That's right.
Boss.
My friend.
Where's the rest of the money?
Bring it.
Mr. Wen-Cheng,
is it enough for you?
Sir, it's fake money.
Fuck.
Fuck it. I want them all dead!
Fuck.
Keep running.
Biao really called it.
Drive.
Fuck. Drive all the cars back. Fuck!
Mr. Wen-Cheng,
don't forget your hell money.
Come on, Masha. Fuck, come on.
Fuck this. Fuck.
Go, Boss.
Boss, move it!
- Fuck.
- Come on, Masha.
Fuck!
Dao.
Don't you dare run!
Save yourself, boss!
Brother Wen-Cheng, let's fall back.
Fall back!
Go!
Don't move. Get down.
Let the gun go!
Don't move!
Get down.
Police! Don't move.
Don't move!
What the fuck are you shooting?
Why did you run?
- You chased me, so I ran.
- On your knees!
On your knees!
Mao!
- On your knees!
- Meitou, cuff him.
On your knees.
On your knees.
Feng, that building is the one.
That's a nice mansion.
Yeah.
While he's still alive, let him enjoy it.
- Everything's ready.
- Good.
Brothers.
That's the place.
When we go in, keep your eyes sharp
and stay on your toes.
Got it.
Brother Ben.
- Brother Ben.
- No need to stand up.
- Playing cards?
- Yes.
Keep an eye on the place
while playing cards.
Stay sharp.
Yes.
Play that pair of twos.
You motherfucker.
Boss!
- Boss!
- Boss! They're here!
Move out!
Get Hee out of here.
Go, boss!
Feng, don't let him get away! Hurry!
This way.
Don't run!
Ben.
Ren!
Boss.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Kuei,
you've got guts.
You've got some fucking nerve
coming after someone in my place.
Boss, no offense.
Coming through.
Kuei,
do you have to wait
until they nail the coffin shut
before you know if you're alive or dead?
Brother Hee.
You're a gang boss.
Act like one.
Don't make things harder for your crew.
Don't worry.
On every Tomb Sweeping Day,
I'll visit your grave and pay my respects.
Ren,
you win.
I'll face the consequences.
Put down the guns.
- Boss.
- Put the guns down.
Let them go.
Shit! Cops.
Kill him.
- Cops are here. Run!
- Like hell I will!
- Kill him!
- Run!
In the courtyard!
Found anything?
Fuck you.
They're empty.
Those northerners are sneaky as hell.
What did you say?
It's none of your damn business.
What's so funny? Get in.
Come here.
Get in!
Get in the squad car!
SPECIAL OPERATIONS UNI- Hao.
- Boss.
What did the doctor say?
It might take another month.
This is from all the guys in Beiguan.
It's for you.
Boss, I can't accept this.
Take it.
It's the last bit of kindness
we can offer.
You have to take it.
Remember.
Take good care of your grandma.
When you recover from this, start over.
From now on,
we walk our own paths
and fight our own battles.
Boss.
Take care.
Is this your first?
Yeah.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
How about you?
Is it your first as well?
Me?
I still have some work to do.
I'm here for a pregnancy lucky charm.
I'll consider what you said.
Also
I still want Scorpion.
Hada, have some tea.
Now that Hada's gone,
this tea tastes pretty bitter.
I wonder when our turn will come.
It doesn't matter.
He's already there waiting for us anyway.
When it's our turn, we'll have company.
Here.
Careful.
Biao.
What will it take for Michael
to return?
Those old bosses
went to great lengths
to force Michael out.
Do I have to wait until the day I die
for Michael to return
and attend my funeral?
I will never ever
hand over Daqiaotou
to outsiders.
If Michael ever returns,
you have to help him.
Uncle.
Uncle.
Michael will definitely come back.
Thanks, Mr. Hai.
Without your tactful diplomacy,
I could never have weathered the storm.
It's nothing.
Of course it took some connections.
But more importantly,
you need money.
In today's world, without money,
you can't get anything done.
Money brings connections, relationships,
and everything.
Understood.
Mr. Hai, I'll be away for a while.
Once I've made a pile of cash,
I'll come back and treat you well.
Mr. Hai.
Master Hee,
regarding Mr. Ko,
I did everything I could for you.
I look forward to working with you
in the future.
Call me when you're back in the US.
Safe travels.
THANK YOU TO ALL THE FRIENDS
WHO HAVE SUPPORTED GATAO ALONG THE WAY.
YOUR TRUST AND ENCOURAGEMENARE WHAT KEPT US GOING.
WE'RE DEEPLY GRATEFUL!
What time is it?
I don't see anyone from your crew.
I could have just set up a crew for you
if I had known this.
On board. Hurry up.
Move faster and get to work.
Hey, you two. Go over there.
Open the hatch
and bring up the catch.
Hurry up.
As far as I can tell,
you've made quite a lot from this trip.
I'll continue doing business with you.
- Let's call this business...
- Enough, captain.
Let's get the job done first.
I'll call you if I need you.
Deal. Thanks a lot.
Fuck!
Fuck, this whole thing's a goddamn setup!
Come here and help.
Help me.
Tie them up.
Attention, this is the Coast Guard.
You are suspected of smuggling.
Stop your vessel now for inspection.
This is the Coast Guard.
You are suspected of smuggling.
Stop your vessel now for inspection.
Stop your vessel now for inspection.
Look at you.
Hitting the jackpot
on your first assignment.
From now on, just do
whatever I tell you to do.
Fall back.
The iron-hulled ship is getting away.
Shouldn't we pursue?
What for? To start a war?
We are here to search for drugs.
But they fired. Chase them.
Right. I'm aware of that.
I am.
Good thing the iron-hulled ship knew
when to back off.
Did you see this?
After all these deaths,
what matters most
is getting promoted
and making a fortune.
Don't risk your own life.
Boss.
Boss.
What?
Master Hee called.
He's invited you to dinner.
What for?
If it's about the construction thing,
I'm not interested.
Okay.
I understand.
- I'm man enough to date a dumpy chick.
- Just drink. Stop stalling.
Stop stalling. Just drink.
Is there a problem here?
Boss.
All the boys
are enjoying their time in the yard.
Yet you three are having
a secret gathering?
What are you guys up to?
You'd better listen
to every word I say now.
Since you've joined Beiguan Brothers,
people know you are one of us.
So take everything you do seriously
from now on.
Don't ruin our reputation.
Especially you, Ching.
Don't play the hero and act tough.
Among gangsters, there are a lot of
crazy bastards who don't care if they die.
If you keep being so reckless,
you'll get yourself killed someday.
As for Bao, starting now,
think twice before you say anything.
Stop talking bullshit.
You can piss people off
without even knowing it.
Also, Pan,
since you're here, do your best
in honor of your late brother.
I've been talking for so long.
A little response would be appreciated.
- Yes, Boss. Got it.
- Understood.
I heard you, Boss.
Thank you, Boss.
Qiao-en.
Yes, Boss.
From now on, you and your guys
will call him Brother Ching.
But Boss
What's the matter?
You got a problem?
- No.
- He's been in gangs longer than you have.
It's fair for you to call him Brother.
Brother Ching.
What about Bao?
Brother Bao.
And Pan?
Pretty Pan.
Pretty Pan.
Boss.
Are you sure about this?
What's wrong with you?
You got a problem too?
You are their leader.
Are you turning them against me?
Understood.
Here.
Let's make a toast. Here.
Here.
Welcome.
From this moment on,
you're the Five Tigers of the Beiguan.
Hurry up.
Speak.
Brother Biao.
The goods have safely arrived on shore.
Great. We'll wait and see.
Biao,
we've nailed the delivery perfectly.
Your ability is approved.
Is it?
Then why was there an iron-hulled ship?
You received your full payment
with no deductions.
Just think of it as a small accident.
If there's something I don't know,
it means I am not trusted.
Brother Biao,
the higher-ups need to know
if you're trustworthy.
Master Hee.
- Watch your step.
- Masha.
Welcome.
- Thank you for visiting our humble place.
- Not at all.
Great to have you here.
Ben, this way.
Have a seat.
Have a seat.
Here.
Uncle, let me.
Hee,
how's the situation in Taipei?
It's different from down south.
Here, no one says a thing
after you make a call.
Up north, people follow a different gatao.
Things are fine during tea meetings.
But when there's profit to be made,
everyone wants a piece of the pie.
Gataos up north
are a real pain in the ass.
Yung and Hada.
Those two old bastards
are self-absorbed, stuck-up snobs.
Those two old pricks are full of shit.
Hada had gotten away with a hit before.
Mr. Kuei, Hada's blood brother,
didn't even take revenge for him.
They claim to be brothers,
but when trouble comes,
it's every man for himself.
Let's get serious.
This business has potential.
That's why so many people are eager
to get their hands
on Taipei's land.
Master Hee,
now I will be counting on you
to take me to Taipei to work things out.
Here.
Uncle, don't worry.
I believe Master Hee will get
the construction project rolling.
Right, Master Hee?
A toast to Uncle.
- Mr. Hee.
- Yes.
- Enjoy.
- Thank you, boss.
Go on.
Brother Masha, you're here.
Hey, guys, feeling good?
Yeah.
Get high or get out!
It's my treat.
Brother Masha.
Fuck off.
- Huang.
- Brother Masha.
Feeling good?
You limp-dick motherfucker.
- Hey, Mr. Masha.
- Cheers to you.
We'll go to Taipei with Masha
to make a killing
with the construction plan.
Motherfucker.
- Let's hit the ground running.
- Fuck yeah.
I'm going to show those snobs in Taipei
a real money game.
- Fuck yeah.
- I have nothing else but money.
Take it.
Take it.
Come on, even without an invitation,
- I've got the right to celebrate, right?
- Sir, please show your invitation card.
Please hold on a moment, sir.
- Captain.
- See? They know me.
How come you're here?
- Young Boss.
- Please wait at the door.
My young boss!
Even if I don't have an invitation,
I've got to get in and celebrate.
Let me.
You must be a friend of our boss.
You're with me. Here.
Straight from the sea.
As fresh as possible.
- Catch of the day.
- How generous.
You brought a present.
- Let me take you to our boss.
- Sure.
- This way, please.
- I'll leave it with you.
Come on.
Just tell me what you want.
We were in it together.
Don't forget to share the wealth.
I've given you what I promised.
Have you?
One question.
Who will pay for my wrecked ship?
I know what you did on there.
It's a secret, right?
How much?
How much?
Fine. I know it takes time.
My young boss.
Let's work together more.
What do you want?
I've got nothing
but the best deal for you.
All you have done in this place
is dirty work.
Best deal, my ass.
- Look.
- Stop there.
Would you please calm down?
What is this money for?
I've been doing some business
and I'd like to ask you to handle
the sales channel.
If things go smoothly, I'll pay you more.
Fuck you.
Who do you think we are?
We're from Beiguan.
Take back your filthy money, you scum.
To be clear,
we were never here.
But Chao,
what do you mean, I'll be his contact?
Boss told us to keep them
out of this place.
Are you a snitch?
Of course not.
What are you afraid of?
They offered. I didn't ask for it.
A gangster will take any money he can get.
If we get caught
I get it.
You need money for your family.
I've got your back.
Thanks, Chao.
Keep it.
Bring your sister next time.
Fuck you. What's the matter?
Something wrong?
I'm afraid the sales may be too good.
You motherfucker, what's this for?
It's something special. Try it.
Wait for the show.
Now, it's magic time.
Look. His eyes rolled back.
Let me tell you, this is the shit.
People in Taipei are all
snorting this shit.
Are you for real?
Boss.
This shit rocks.
Do you like it? It has potential, right?
I don't care about the price.
Get me all of this.
For you, I'll check every source.
If we take this down south,
we'll make a killing.
Won't we?
Next time I call,
pick up the damn phone, Masha.
I only call
when there's good stuff going on.
Now you call me
and I have to answer no matter what, huh?
Billy!
Hell yeah!
You're up!
Cheers!
May I help you?
Young Boss.
- Have a seat.
- Young Boss, have a seat.
Come in and have a drink.
Can I have a word with you?
You can have a thousand words with me.
- No funny business while I'm gone.
- Fuck you.
What a stack.
Young Boss.
I asked the shipyard how much it'll cost.
They said 20 million wasn't enough.
It costs at least 30 million.
Did you think I would agree?
I'm not asking if you will.
I'm informing you.
I'll take this as the down payment.
A secret is like a fishhook.
Once you're caught,
you'd better follow it.
You're now my moneymaker.
Thanks.
You could have just taken the money
and called it a deal.
Why did you keep on asking for more
and telling me what to do?
Young Boss.
Come in.
Boss.
Master Kuei and Master Yung are here.
Brother, your legs are better now.
Not really.
I have to sit on the toilet to pee.
I haven't had sex in forever.
Brother, at this age,
be thankful you can still pee.
Stop comforting me.
People are saying that without you guys,
the Beicheng gang would be history.
Don't say that. We're all brothers.
We must take care of one another.
If it were us,
you would have done the same.
That's right.
Don't worry.
Stop overthinking these things.
Mr. Hada, your health matters more.
In the morning,
after he gets up,
take him to the park for a walk
like casual rehab. Got it?
My dad just wouldn't go out.
Then drag him out.
Recently,
Hee's construction project
has been rolling.
I think
soon enough,
he will come to us for a talk.
That spineless prick.
If he dares to come,
I'll beat him to a pulp.
It's not just you.
Even my gang cannot accept
the way Hee does things.
What do you say, Kuei?
I'll follow your lead.
We are blood brothers.
Do you hear that? We're on the same team.
Relax, keep it cool, and do some exercise.
Let's play mahjong. I'll help you win.
- I'll also help you win.
- That's right.
Why don't you just give me
the pot instead?
That's different.
Give you the pot? You're not one
of those spineless pricks, are you?
Boss.
The two bosses seemed
to have a firm attitude.
They didn't seem to like
working with Master Hee.
What do you think about this, Boss?
I got my own take.
Speaking of Hee,
what he wants is the land in Beiguan.
That bastard won't give up easily.
This construction project
has strong government support.
It spans across eight districts
involving the Ministry of Transportation
and Communications,
the Ministry of Education,
the Ministry of Culture,
and the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
We will build 16 commercial buildings,
four light-rail lines, three hospitals,
and two schools.
Beiguan
has long been a hub for business.
The value of this place will only go up.
Now, what matters the most
is protecting the livelihoods
of the local people
and maintaining the profit of our gang.
- Young man, no point in talking so much.
- Liar.
These are just fancy words.
How long will it take to build that?
Plus, where would our people stay
during the construction?
You didn't answer at all.
Just because we wouldn't move,
you have gangsters mess with us every day
so that we cannot run
our businesses at all.
- Don't worry, everyone.
- Win-win?
- It's just you guys making all the money.
- We are a responsible firm.
- We're against it.
- If there are such problems,
we will have our staff fix them for you.
Your future is also our future.
I will build you a home.
Please trust me.
What if we go talk to Master Hee
and he agrees on the terms we proposed?
We won't go talk to him.
He should come to talk to us instead.
But here's the problem.
What should we tell Mr. Hada and Mr. Yung?
As long as Hee is willing
to offer us enough money,
Hada, Yung, and I
can talk about anything.
We are The Three Musketeers.
But Boss,
do you think he can offer such a deal?
As far as I know,
he's a money-grubber.
All take and no give.
It'll be difficult to make him pay.
It doesn't matter.
We'll play it by ear.
Fine. Play it by ear.
Master Hee,
you all saw what just happened.
It got chaotic
with so many people protesting.
My point is,
there were government officials present.
I'm worried tomorrow's headlines
will say "Government-Business Collusion."
From my position,
it'll be hard to fix this situation.
Billy, those who just protested
are mostly holdout residents.
Isn't that quite normal
in a public hearing?
Yes, we understand that.
What I'm saying is,
while we make money together
and take what we deserve,
shouldn't we also think
about compensating the residents?
Maybe
We should
Are you telling me what to do?
Of course not, Master Hee.
I wouldn't dare.
I just want the whole project to be
carried out smoothly and successfully.
That's why I brought it up.
I'll have my men work on it.
This is our first public event.
I won't make myself look bad.
Ms. Fei wants you to head down south
for new business.
It's a big one.
See you later, Mr. Hai.
- Take care.
- Goodbye.
- Master Hee.
- Goodbye, Master Hee.
Mr. Hai.
This is the man
I've been talking to you about, Biao.
Mr. Hai.
Mr. Hai.
Masha.
- Careful, Uncle.
- Goodbye, Mr. Hai.
Masha. Biao.
I've tried out your stuff.
Not bad.
I'm flattered.
I look forward to working with you.
I have a large demand.
Don't disappoint me.
GUILI CONSTRUCTION
Brother.
You know that in our renewal plan,
the land in Beiguan is crucial.
Of course, I know it's crucial.
In fact, many people
have come to me to discuss this.
There are emotions involved.
It's not as simple as replacing
the old with the new.
People will lose the places
that spark memories for them.
Besides,
it'll make me look bad.
What do you want me to do
to make you look good?
Brother.
This project is tens
of billions of dollars
and your company has it all.
Pardon, Master Hee.
Allow me to interrupt and say something.
I believe that Master Hee knows this well.
All this time, profits from earthworks
have gone to the respective gataos.
It's absurd for your company
to take over our land.
That doesn't make sense.
If word gets out,
my boss and I will have to pack it up.
Wouldn't you say?
It's only logical.
The construction firm decides
who gets the job.
Don't make trouble for me.
Master Yung,
Hada, and I have had a conversation.
Master Yung was more concerned than I was.
As for Hada,
you know better than I do.
Since you've already talked to them,
what am I even here for?
Are you playing dumb with me?
You said it's out of your hands.
You're the one who is playing dumb.
So Kuei,
you speak on behalf of them?
Goodbye, Master Hee.
He was really playing dumb.
Do you have a cigarette?
My boss needs a favor.
That's why he had a lawyer get you out.
So, what's it going to be? Mouth or hands?
I'm from Daqiaotou.
What do you want from me?
I checked the visitor record.
Daqiaotou? Did any of them come?
It's none of your damn business.
Bo.
Tsai.
- You're off work this early today?
- Yeah, wait a minute.
I bought some oranges for your dad.
Thanks.
Also
Here.
Aren't you going to hire a caregiver?
I can't take this.
You've already helped us so much.
I'll do anything you ask. I'm sorry.
Damn it!
Why didn't you follow my rules?
How come you handled
the business your way?
You're here, Mr. Scorpion.
Yudao, I'll leave him to you.
That will leave a scar.
You motherfucker.
I want to work with you.
You're a pro, Biao.
You're a pro.
We'll make a killing selling this.
Do you have any crew on your end?
What kind of question is that?
Is the sky blue?
Scorpion, no need to talk like that.
I'm trying to work with you.
You want me to be your lackey?
No way.
I see you as a partner.
There's no boss or underling between us.
Fuck.
You motherfucking coke head.
Bobo is such a vacuum.
I'm a vacuum.
A vacuum.
She's a vacuum.
Bo?
Police.
A cop hitting a club?
How come you're here?
Fuck.
Freeze. Police.
- Drop the gun and put your hands up.
- Which one first?
- Drop the gun or put my hands up?
- Drop the gun and put your hands up.
Buy me a drink first.
- Let's grab a drink. Party on.
- Okay, grab a drink.
- What's wrong?
- What's the matter?
Stop there.
Police! Stay where you are.
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
Enough, get in the car.
Uncle, come eat.
It's hot. Careful.
Here.
Listen.
Do you have a client named Scorpion?
I don't know.
Don't lie to me. I saw everything.
So what?
He's just a client.
You've worked so hard to get clean.
Is this what you call starting over?
I'm not addicted.
How many times have you said that?
You're still young. You have a future.
If you want to quit, you can.
I can help you.
How?
Do you think giving me money
is helping me?
How long can you keep helping me
like that?
And how long can you keep
working like that?
You think I don't want a normal life?
Honey, it's lunch time.
I'm not hungry. You eat first.
You've seen my dad's condition.
Can I afford not to work?
You think I'm like you
and I can choose the life I want?
I'm done eating.
I'm going to pick up Bo from school.
Dad.
I am Bo.
Where are you going?
My wifey, wait a second. Bo's almost back.
I am Bo.
Uncle, Brother Wen-Cheng.
Running into an old friend here, huh?
Mr. Ko.
Uncle.
Scorpion's working for me now.
He's doing great.
If he's a talent, then keep him with you.
Thank you, Uncle.
Please.
Boss, excuse me.
Biao, come.
Not bad.
It looks like you really listened
to what I told you.
However, in the future,
if you want to work with us,
the Daqiaotou gang,
you'd better not act like a nut.
Ever since Michael left,
we've been lucky to have you.
You've helped us stabilize
Daqiaotou's business
and looked after the younger guys.
You're too kind.
Given my friendship with Michael,
it's the least I could do.
Besides,
the market up north is only so big.
It's all about who makes the money first.
You talk just like Michael.
Like you said,
I'll go out and live my life.
Who knows?
Maybe one day, I'll be the boss.
When that day comes,
what I say goes.
If that day ever comes,
I'll congratulate you.
Actually, Michael's path was right.
He always wanted to break with tradition
and run things like a business, like I do.
But he just moved too fast.
Now that Daqiaotou's business
has settled down,
if you need anything in the future,
just say the word.
Thank you, Uncle. I'll take my leave now.
Brother Wen-Cheng.
Take care.
Boss,
he uses our name to sell his products
and we even handle PR for him.
After Michael left,
if we didn't have him,
Daqiaotou would've been in chaos.
But when Michael got into trouble,
Biao didn't even ask about him.
He works with us now
only because there's money to be made.
What's wrong?
Brother Chao.
I was thinking
we shouldn't do this anymore.
What the hell?
Are you scared of making too much money?
I really am scared.
I'm likely to be busted.
Boss is watching closely.
If I get caught,
I don't know what will happen.
Seriously.
Let's just stop.
How about this?
Let's do it one last time.
Brother Chao.
Take this.
Sorry. I always finish the whole bottle.
The tiny supply you gave me
was like child's play.
That's all the supply you get.
We agreed on these terms.
But I told you back then
that if sales were better in the south,
we could divert stock
originally allocated to the north.
Didn't I?
It's just something you said.
Did I ever agree to that?
The more I sell, the faster you profit.
Can't you do the math?
What kind of bullshit are you saying?
If everyone asked
for more supplies like you do,
how can I keep up with it?
Is that so?
But I'm out of stock now.
What do I do?
You're bluffing.
You think so?
Fine.
I promise.
I'll increase your supply
in the next shipment.
Next shipment?
Do you think I came
all the way from the south
just to be told to wait my turn?
Biao.
Do you understand this foreign shit
he's speaking?
Shut your mouth, you motherfucker.
Hey!
This is Taipei.
Show a little respect.
And you
Just came here from the hair salon?
Young man, you've got some nerve.
Not bad, huh?
That's all, right?
Let's go.
Fuck off.
Biao.
In your next shipment, I want it all.
Do you hear me?
Not a single gram less.
You're killing it.
Boss is here.
Boss.
- They're inside.
- Good.
Lord Guan.
I, your follower Ren,
would like to first apologize to you.
Someone in my crew
was selling drugs around,
so I'd like to use your place
to deal with this matter.
Please forgive us.
Do you admit that you were selling drugs?
Boss, I am sorry.
I won't do it again.
Again?
Be honest.
How did you get the guts
to sell drugs in the neighborhood?
Boss, I am really sorry.
My grandma's sick and she needs a doctor.
My sister is still a student.
My family really needs money.
Then why didn't you ask for help?
Or do you think none of us
are capable enough,
so you have to sell drugs to make a living
and work things out?
Fuck.
You made your move,
so now you pay the price.
- Ching.
- Yes.
Boss.
Can it be someone else?
After all,
I've been in Beiguan
longer than they have.
I'll do it.
Enough.
Hao.
You reap what you sow.
No complaint.
From now on, you are no longer one of us.
Listen up, all of you.
Anyone who dares to sell drugs here
will have me to deal with.
That's enough.
Are you trying to beat him to death?
Let me help you up.
Hang in there.
Hang in there.
Where are Chao and the others?
I told them to go home.
Why are you home so late these days?
You drink more than you used to.
Don't act like you don't know me.
Before we got married,
you already knew what I did, right?
I'm sorry.
There are some issues in the gang
and I have to handle every one of them.
I have no choice.
Do you think I like doing it?
Have some water first. Don't spill it.
You wouldn't understand this.
When you're not home, I'm all alone.
I feel this house is quiet.
You get bored?
I mean,
if we had a child,
I wouldn't be bored anymore.
Okay, let's have a child.
If so, we need a little plan.
You're so cute.
What plan do we need to have a child?
You're so busy with your work.
Will you have extra time for us?
Besides, if we have a child,
you need to be more cautious
about everything out there.
In case something happens
I'm done eating.
Honey.
I guarantee you there's no chance of that.
Captain, Scorpion isn't facing any charges
for guns or narcotics.
Don't you find that suspicious?
Does he have someone backing him?
He could be the one who killed
that drunk guy at the baseball stadium.
Are you done with all the talking?
Do I need you to tell me what to do
and what to say?
If you're that good,
you can take my seat.
- Take it. Come on.
- Captain.
Take it.
If you want to stick your nose
into these matters,
you'd better work hard to get promoted
without making mistakes.
When you become my boss,
I'll listen to you by all means.
But until then, just know your place.
Don't make trouble.
Come on.
Drink with me.
Come on.
Bo, don't leave me.
Don't leave me.
Wen-Cheng, let me tell you.
This place is always booked up.
Even money won't get you a seat.
But for you,
I've rented the whole restaurant.
Enjoy it.
We're not done talking business.
It takes mutual understanding
to sit at the same table.
Do you think I appreciate your treat?
Your friend, Biao,
doesn't want to make money.
He was out of his mind
lecturing me about rules.
What rules are there in gang business?
Money is the rule.
That is correct.
As for me,
I only have one rule.
Money is all that matters.
- Money makes everything possible.
- Bravo.
I love that.
Let me say this.
The beef in this hot pot
is for everyone at the table.
We can both have some.
I have nothing but money.
Then this is our mutual understanding.
This beef looks delicious.
Let's enjoy it.
Have as much as you want. Help yourself.
It's all my treat.
How does it taste?
Terrific.
I should have come to you earlier.
It's in great condition.
- Nineteen-inch wheel, right?
- Yes.
Which one is faster? Mine or this one?
Over 60 miles per hour, this one flies.
- Does it?
- Yes.
I'm looking for a getaway car.
It flies.
Our dear guest, Mr. Tsai,
your car is parked in the red zone.
It might be towed by your colleagues.
Fuck. Come out.
Officer.
Back off. I'll pull the trigger.
I believe you.
Officer.
Calm down.
Don't move.
Drop that thing.
Drop it!
Back off.
Officer.
Don't you think
it's a good time for us to have a talk?
Bo, don't leave me.
Don't leave me.
Let's have a talk.
It's Kuei.
Kuei,
long time no see.
How about coming in for a chat?
They drove in.
Boss.
Good morning.
Mr. Kuei, my uncle ordered us
to roll out the red carpet for you.
- This way, please.
- Sure.
Ren.
- This way.
- Okay.
Mr. Kuei, this way.
Okay.
Uncle, Mr. Kuei is here.
Boss.
- Have a seat.
- Sure.
- You're here.
- I am.
- Have a seat.
- Yes.
Ren, make yourself at home.
Boss, this place is magnificent.
It's just a humble place.
You're welcome any time.
I'll take you up on that.
Now,
I won't beat around the bush.
Let's get to the point.
Boss,
please do.
I asked you here to talk
about the construction project
in the north.
How come you and Hee
didn't reach an agreement?
Mr. Hai is well-informed.
Boss, why do you care so much
about the project in the north?
Come on.
I care about my old friend.
I hate to see my old friends
fighting over a small profit,
making a fuss,
and hurting each other.
Boss.
I don't know what Hee told you.
You know more about Hee
than I do.
In our line of work,
there is a line between fair profits
and dirty money.
You should know this better than I do.
Isn't it promising
to have such buildings in Beiguan?
That's right.
Boss, but I have so many things
going on in Beiguan.
This huge project involves
people's feelings
and companies' profits.
I really don't have the time for this.
Fine.
- I'll do it for you.
- Boss.
The place is full of my old neighbors.
How can I let an outsider
put his hands on local construction?
If we dealt with it that way,
how would we explain it to people?
After all,
they call me "Mr. Kuei"
for a reason, right?
Kuei.
You're so stubborn.
You won't work this way
and you won't work that way.
Seems to me like
you are turning me down.
Kuei,
if this is the case,
how can we still be friends in the future?
Boss, with all due respect,
I'm here
because I wanted to visit you
and make my stance clear.
I hope you understand.
Then I know
what needs to be done.
I appreciate your visit.
You may go now.
It's fine.
Thanks for having me.
Let's leave.
Excuse us.
Pardon.
- Excuse us.
- Pardon.
Would you back off?
Make way for us to pass.
Excuse us.
Excuse us. Are we good?
- Back off.
- Please.
Don't you want to stay for a while?
Leave them.
Dao.
- Excuse me.
- Pardon.
Back off.
Boss.
Thank you for the tea.
Next time you're in Beiguan,
I will be sure to treat you well.
Back off, please.
Our car is coming through.
Open up!
Goodbye.
Come on.
You finally show up.
Bo is here.
Come on.
Latecomers have to snort three lines.
- That is the rule, right?
- Yes.
Can't I just have a drink?
Please?
I want to smoke.
Do you fucking know what you're here for?
You're here to work your ass off,
not to have fun.
You're such a cutie.
Bo's going to snort a line.
Snort a line.
One line for Bo.
Come on.
How about some encouragement?
- Don't be so quiet.
- Bo's first line.
- Are you not going to cheer for Bo?
- Bo.
- Bo.
- Bo.
- One, two, three.
- Bo.
Fuck you,
the people behind you all have guns.
You got it? Fuck!
Where the hell is Bobo?
She's in the bathroom.
She's in the bathroom?
Then drag her out.
BROTHER TSAI
Fuck!
Damn cop tried to trick me.
I've talked to Masha.
In addition,
I've settled everything for you.
Here's the deal.
You supply the goods to me.
Daqiaotou sells them to Masha.
This way, you get to save face,
Masha gets his goods and we make money.
Do you get it?
Does Mr. Ko know about this?
This matter is important.
Of course I told him about this.
Let me tell you.
If you want to do business
without using violence
and putting your life at risk,
the only way to make the most money
is to negotiate.
But Brother Wen-Cheng,
don't you think this whole thing is weird?
Masha gets his supply
from you instead of me.
What's wrong with it?
But your supply comes from me.
Yes, it does.
Why is he willing to pay you more?
Everyone knows he's rich.
If he's happy with it, what's the problem?
- Brother Wen-Cheng.
- What is it?
The way they do things is domineering.
-If we go along with them,
-I think you're the domineering one.
-The whole market
-He offered you a lot of money.
- Will be claimed by them.
- But you turned it down.
Do you want me to spell it out for you?
What they're doing is obvious.
- Biao.
- I
Uncle.
Have a seat.
Biao.
I heard everything you said.
But Wen-Cheng has made a promise to them.
The Daqiaotou gang has a solid reputation.
A promise made is a promise kept.
Then I shall thank Brother Wen-Cheng
for this.
Biao.
Come take a walk with me.
Okay.
- Sir.
- This house is well-built.
- This way.
- Hello.
I'll go keep them busy for now.
- Hello.
- Hello.
Please have a seat, sir.
Okay.
Hello, I'm Billy.
Hello.
- Did any of our staff offend you?
- Not at all.
- She's good.
- Really?
We brought cash here to buy out
your entire construction project.
- Is this enough?
- All of it.
If it's not, we have more.
All right. Save it.
I know that you're here to cause trouble.
What do you want?
No need to go there.
This is the young boss here.
Show some respect, all right?
He's so thoughtful
that he bought up all our land.
You son of a bitch!
Listen up.
This is Taipei.
You don't get to call the shots here.
What are you looking at?
What?
Your face tells me something's wrong.
- Something is on his mind.
- You're upset because Ching told you off?
You know what this is?
Hell money.
Be smart.
Don't mess with us.
Otherwise,
you'll need this in hell.
Bao, enough. Let's go.
Enjoy it as much as you want.
Let's go.
What a rational negotiation.
They gave me this crap to curse me.
How should I explain this to my dad?
How do I explain this to Mr. Hai?
They even talked
about rational negotiation.
As if I was happy about it.
Boss, it's all on tape.
It's the Beiguan guys.
Well, Master Hee.
I guess I'll be delivering
your special present
ahead of schedule.
Ren, have some premium tea.
It's 50,000 a bag.
Cut the crap.
That's such a weak brag.
Come on.
If it hadn't been for those bastards
who busted my joint,
I would have already taken you over.
Consider yourself lucky.
I wasn't going to bring this up.
My son, Chun, is still too green.
Please look after him for me.
Come on. Don't be silly.
Of course I will.
That bastard let me live.
Now I'm in worse pain than death.
Insulting me is fine,
but insulting you guys is not.
In northern Taiwan,
we are the few old-timers left.
Shall we make our move?
My brother, don't worry.
When it's time to act, I will.
Take care of your health first.
You're not the one
who's going to get killed.
- Hurry up.
- Done.
- Did you turn off the hot water dispenser?
- Yes.
Let's go.
IRON DOORS AND WINDOWS, STAINLESS STEEL
AND ALUMINUM DOORS AND WINDOWS
DOWN THIS ALLEY
Boss. Sir.
Lightbulb, what were you doing?
What took you so long?
The traffic was so heavy.
Boss.
Chun, go buy me some braised snacks
and fish head soup.
Congee, Lightbulb. Did you hear that?
- Hurry and go.
- Okay.
You go.
You know which joint I like.
Take them along with you for a meal.
Dad, I'll stay and keep you company.
What for? I'm about to bang a broad.
Are you going to cheer me on?
Got it.
Chun.
You should be more disciplined
when doing things.
Don't be reckless.
Don't just hang around
and waste your time all day long.
Lightbulb and Congee,
take good care of your boss
and the company too.
Be careful with what you say. You hear me?
Boss, I got it.
Dad, I got it. Take your time.
Boss, we're leaving.
Boss.
Hey, bro. Pardon me.
Sorry for making you wait.
You just got off?
- Have a drink.
- How was your day?
How was my day?
I rolled the dice and won it all.
All right.
Go take a shower.
Don't take too long.
I'll pop some pills
and give you a wild ride in bed.
Boss.
Get in there. This doesn't involve you.
You picked the wrong road.
Take him away.
Move.
Hee, I'm not letting you mess me up again.
Farewell.
Boss.
Boss.
Things went wrong. Mr. Hada is dead.
Yung, are they after you or after me?
It makes no difference.
Your trouble is my trouble.
I'm a gang boss,
yet I need you to take care of my gang.
Why don't I just kill myself?
My dignity
When do I get it back?
Are you going to fight them or not?
If not, I'll do it myself
with my last-ditch effort.
Big Brother.
No wonder you wanted to start a war.
Turns out you were ready
to trade your life
to preserve your last shred of dignity
as a gang boss.
Hada!
You didn't let your brothers down!
We are The Three Musketeers.
We are blood brothers.
After this, let's go dancing.
Shall we make our move?
My brother, don't worry.
When it's time to act, I will.
You're not the one
who's going to get killed.
I'll take care of this.
I'll let you have this one.
I don't need that.
Big Brother, you have lived a tough life.
In the next life,
let's not be gangsters.
Let's live ordinary lives.
Dad.
Dad.
Dad.
I bought you the fish soup.
Come and have it.
Have it while it's still hot.
Dad.
Didn't you want some fish soup?
I have it here.
Dad.
Why can't I just die already?
Your son, Chun, is not ready.
Chun.
You should be more disciplined
when doing things.
Don't be reckless.
If you get into trouble,
I won't be able to protect you anymore.
Didn't you say I'm foolish?
Now get up, scold me, and punch me.
I don't care.
Dad.
Dad.
Get up.
Dad.
Dad.
Get up.
Dad.
Brother.
You go first.
Perhaps I'll follow you later.
If you want payback, come find me.
Brother, it's all yours.
Ko, you always know where I am.
I read you like a book.
You and Mr. Hai want to take over Taipei.
Do you think I can boss Mr. Hai around?
You're giving me too much credit.
You have really crossed the line.
The Daqiaotou gang won't let you off.
Can't you see Daqiaotou
is being taken over?
No wonder your son
wouldn't stay there with you.
I can't just call off the construction
on a whim.
Mr. Hai is backed
by a group of stakeholders.
They all want a piece of the pie.
The upcoming election
will also cost a lot.
You all say I'm the aggressive one.
Haven't I tried to talk things through?
Who's the aggressive one?
I'm indeed a businessman.
But before this,
I was a gatao
and I grew up with those three.
Do you know that?
Ko,
we've known each other for decades too.
Does it really have to come to this?
You were the one who took out Hada, right?
Do you think I don't know that?
Hee,
would you stop smiling?
Ko,
I'm done smiling with you.
Despite all our fights,
we knew our boundaries
because we had been gataos
since we were young.
All this
was stirred up by Hee.
What makes him so fearless?
He has a crew of killers
watching his back.
I've found them.
Take care of them for me.
Fucking hell!
Stole my kill.
Get back here now.
We'll deal with it later.
Get my stuff ready.
I'm going down south.
Understood.
Mr. Kuei, our boss has ordered us
to do whatever you tell us to do.
Don't worry.
I can't locate Hee.
I think he's probably hiding in the south.
Uncle, I've been expecting this.
My crew is ready for it.
This time, we'll definitely kill him.
Not you, Chun.
You stay up north.
You have to watch over our turf
and keep me safe, understand?
Indeed.
Uncle, this task is important.
I'd better get moving now.
I won't be there with you two.
Don't disappoint me.
Fuck.
Boss, Feng and I will leave now.
Ren.
Yes, Boss?
On your trip to the south,
things will get really messy.
But don't worry.
I'll handle whatever comes after.
My point is
just be careful.
Got it, Boss. I'm off.
Ren.
All right, Boss.
Don't overthink it.
Let's have some tea together
when I get back.
Ren.
Huowang.
- Long time no see.
- Long time no see.
- How are you lately?
- Not bad.
Huowang.
Brother Feng.
- Are you good?
- Not bad at all.
- Come on in.
- Sure.
What's going on with that matter?
How did it expand to the south?
There are a lot of rumors going around.
It makes my head spin.
Now,
are you here to fight southern gangs
or to fight Hee?
Brother,
I trust you, so I'll be honest with you.
You know what kind of guy Hee is.
He escalates things.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have
to ask for your help.
That Hee
But I can only back you up this far
on this matter.
When it comes to local gangs,
there are lines I cannot cross.
I understand, Brother.
This is more than enough.
As the saying goes,
it takes a strong fire
to smoke a rat out of its hole.
Huowang, your help is important.
Thanks a lot.
Okay, then.
I prepared a few souvenirs just for you.
Come take a look with me.
Here's another case.
Huowang.
This is from the same batch as ours.
Right.
Mr. Ko has spoken.
I don't really have a choice.
Contact Tsai for me.
Tell him we're sending him a big present.
Just say
the guys in the south
are coming up north for a deal.
Ask him to be ready to act.
That's Daqiaotou's business.
Do we really need to get involved?
This is way too risky.
He's a cop.
Then all I can do is take my chances.
Do you really have to go all-in?
When's the deal?
Understood.
Mr. Wen-Cheng.
Where are the goods?
Where's the money?
Dao.
Sir, all good.
Doing business with you southerners
is satisfying.
Exactly.
Go on. Bring out the goods.
Mr. Wen-Cheng.
I'm going to be the sole distributor,
so I'll be counting on you.
- We should've met sooner.
- That's right.
Boss.
My friend.
Where's the rest of the money?
Bring it.
Mr. Wen-Cheng,
is it enough for you?
Sir, it's fake money.
Fuck.
Fuck it. I want them all dead!
Fuck.
Keep running.
Biao really called it.
Drive.
Fuck. Drive all the cars back. Fuck!
Mr. Wen-Cheng,
don't forget your hell money.
Come on, Masha. Fuck, come on.
Fuck this. Fuck.
Go, Boss.
Boss, move it!
- Fuck.
- Come on, Masha.
Fuck!
Dao.
Don't you dare run!
Save yourself, boss!
Brother Wen-Cheng, let's fall back.
Fall back!
Go!
Don't move. Get down.
Let the gun go!
Don't move!
Get down.
Police! Don't move.
Don't move!
What the fuck are you shooting?
Why did you run?
- You chased me, so I ran.
- On your knees!
On your knees!
Mao!
- On your knees!
- Meitou, cuff him.
On your knees.
On your knees.
Feng, that building is the one.
That's a nice mansion.
Yeah.
While he's still alive, let him enjoy it.
- Everything's ready.
- Good.
Brothers.
That's the place.
When we go in, keep your eyes sharp
and stay on your toes.
Got it.
Brother Ben.
- Brother Ben.
- No need to stand up.
- Playing cards?
- Yes.
Keep an eye on the place
while playing cards.
Stay sharp.
Yes.
Play that pair of twos.
You motherfucker.
Boss!
- Boss!
- Boss! They're here!
Move out!
Get Hee out of here.
Go, boss!
Feng, don't let him get away! Hurry!
This way.
Don't run!
Ben.
Ren!
Boss.
Fuck.
Fuck.
Kuei,
you've got guts.
You've got some fucking nerve
coming after someone in my place.
Boss, no offense.
Coming through.
Kuei,
do you have to wait
until they nail the coffin shut
before you know if you're alive or dead?
Brother Hee.
You're a gang boss.
Act like one.
Don't make things harder for your crew.
Don't worry.
On every Tomb Sweeping Day,
I'll visit your grave and pay my respects.
Ren,
you win.
I'll face the consequences.
Put down the guns.
- Boss.
- Put the guns down.
Let them go.
Shit! Cops.
Kill him.
- Cops are here. Run!
- Like hell I will!
- Kill him!
- Run!
In the courtyard!
Found anything?
Fuck you.
They're empty.
Those northerners are sneaky as hell.
What did you say?
It's none of your damn business.
What's so funny? Get in.
Come here.
Get in!
Get in the squad car!
SPECIAL OPERATIONS UNI- Hao.
- Boss.
What did the doctor say?
It might take another month.
This is from all the guys in Beiguan.
It's for you.
Boss, I can't accept this.
Take it.
It's the last bit of kindness
we can offer.
You have to take it.
Remember.
Take good care of your grandma.
When you recover from this, start over.
From now on,
we walk our own paths
and fight our own battles.
Boss.
Take care.
Is this your first?
Yeah.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
How about you?
Is it your first as well?
Me?
I still have some work to do.
I'm here for a pregnancy lucky charm.
I'll consider what you said.
Also
I still want Scorpion.
Hada, have some tea.
Now that Hada's gone,
this tea tastes pretty bitter.
I wonder when our turn will come.
It doesn't matter.
He's already there waiting for us anyway.
When it's our turn, we'll have company.
Here.
Careful.
Biao.
What will it take for Michael
to return?
Those old bosses
went to great lengths
to force Michael out.
Do I have to wait until the day I die
for Michael to return
and attend my funeral?
I will never ever
hand over Daqiaotou
to outsiders.
If Michael ever returns,
you have to help him.
Uncle.
Uncle.
Michael will definitely come back.
Thanks, Mr. Hai.
Without your tactful diplomacy,
I could never have weathered the storm.
It's nothing.
Of course it took some connections.
But more importantly,
you need money.
In today's world, without money,
you can't get anything done.
Money brings connections, relationships,
and everything.
Understood.
Mr. Hai, I'll be away for a while.
Once I've made a pile of cash,
I'll come back and treat you well.
Mr. Hai.
Master Hee,
regarding Mr. Ko,
I did everything I could for you.
I look forward to working with you
in the future.
Call me when you're back in the US.
Safe travels.
THANK YOU TO ALL THE FRIENDS
WHO HAVE SUPPORTED GATAO ALONG THE WAY.
YOUR TRUST AND ENCOURAGEMENARE WHAT KEPT US GOING.
WE'RE DEEPLY GRATEFUL!
