Golden Boy (2025) Movie Script
1
Lek, I came up with an idea
There is a big market in the truck business
Let's make progress together,
maybe we can even make a team out of it
Truck team?
McLaren or Ferrari?
You can tell that I am a racing driver,
not a truck driver
Another red bean ice with ice cream, please
No, water is fine
If you keep having that, you'll ruin your stomach
How broke are you?
What is this? It tastes so bad
Ice Ribena with Sprite
What?
Ribena with Sprite
Why can't you drink something normal?
Red bean ice with ice cream
Hey, kid, don't drink that
I saw a fly on your drink
You are broke, right?
Just say so!
Waiter
One red bean ice with ice cream
and an ice Ribena with Sprite, on me
Coming right up!
Drink this first
Thanks
How can I call you?
Little Ho
Mr Ho, how generous
What are you doing?
Finally, there you are
I never hide
Kid, stop being so arrogant
What do you want?
What do people play now?
Street fighters
Is it still popular?
I'm talking about your friend out there
What? Touch me if you dare!
There is surveillance everywhere
You'll be going to jail
Hey, what's going on?
You guys are dead!
He damaged my car,
and I want him to pay for it now
So cut all the bullshit now
Did you do this? You need to pay for that
It's not my fault. He's just a terrible driver.
How bad? Tell me more
It isn't good!
Can't even describe how terrible it is
From what you say,
it seems like it's not your fault
Not me! They are morons
- Is the show over?
- That's dangerous...
I am getting hold of it!
Marlboro Red
I've already warned you, see what happens...
Wanna continue?
Watch where you go!
Weak!
When did we come back?
You bastard, why did you hit me there?
If not, how will we conclude this?
You're the one who said there are
surveillance cameras everywhere.
You wanna go back to jail?
Let me through
What's going on in this room?
This is worse than being in jail
This is normal in Hong Kong
It's pretty spacious here,
way worse than Pi
Pi who?
What is this?
Pi's daughter
Kid
Hey, Kid!
Still not stopping?
You'll be dead if I catch you
Kid!
Sorry, there isn't enough space
for the kids to play in here
I'm Sorry
I got durians
Hong bought us some durians
Yeah, Dad is back
They got stuff to eat
Dad
Where is my computer?
Two days
I will get it ready in two days
Two more days? I can't finish my homework
Be good
Come, have some curry
Are you George's friend?
Hong, this is Cheung Lek
Hey, Lek
Good timing
Try one, it's good
Which one should I eat, curry or durian?
We like to eat both at the same time
Yum
It's good
Try one
You can have my share
No, thank you
Lek
George said you're desperate for a job
They're hiring downstairs.
You should give it a try.
Dish washing?
20K a month with a hard work bonus
It suits you
My hands are not for washing dishes
It's just a way to make money
When I was in India, I was a mathematics professor
But now I am a security
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade
So what, I am a lawyer
Oh Yeah, and I'm a driver.
I'm gonna call the cops right now
Okay, go ahead. You need me to help you with that?
Of course, give me your phone
Look, can you just cooperate and help me out here?
- You're wasting my time
- No! You give me your phone
- I'm gonna call the cops right...
- No! You are wasting my time
Nono! You are wasting my time
So don't waste my time, okay?
- No, I'm really gonna call the cops right now
- No! You are wasting my time
Starting the English channel in the early morning
This woman refuses to leave,
and tries to intimidate me with her English
Your grammar is getting better
Thank you, I learnt from you
Stop that
When you are having a fight,
add some swear words in
Is there still space for that?
Who cares, add it anywhere
I am a motherfucking driver
- Feeling great about it?
- Awesome
Are you guys done?
Are you Cheung Lek?
Who are you?
I need to talk to you
I'll wait for you downstairs in the tea house
I'll give you 3 minutes to put your pants on
Cheung Lek
Born in Hong Kong, 23rd August 1985
In 1999, you graduated from primary school
when you were fourteen
Then, following your uncle Li Fok Sum,
immigrated to San Francisco, America
Dropping out of school since then,
and without a job
Until 2002,
You started learning boxing in a boxing gym,
and became an amateur boxer
You won five amateur competitions in total
In 2008,
You've won the Golden Gloves Boxing Award,
and earned the title "Golden Boy"
Then you registered as a professional boxer
In March 2009,
Hong Kong boxing gym owner Lam Fung Chaun
signed you and brought you back to Hong Kong,
ready to participate in the upcoming
professional boxing contest
But two months after you came back,
which is May 2009,
In a nightclub,
you were groped by a businessman
named Lau Hung Shing
He groped you
Out of rage, you killed him with one single punch
Found guilty of manslaughter,
Sentenced to thirteen years in prison,
took you ten whole years, excluding the holidays
Just released from Stanley Prison yesterday
Am I right?
Who are you?
What do you want?
Did you recognise this woman?
No!
Her name is Fong Ling
Before you killed someone,
you and she went on a date
for a month in Hong Kong
Do you remember?
Nope
Then, do you remember that
after you sweet-talked her into bed,
right after you slept with her and went MIA?
No
She died of leukaemia two months ago
A glass of iced lemon Ribena, please
Sorry, we don't have that
How about Iced Ribena Sprite
This kid is Fong Yuen
He is now ten,
He is Fong Ling and your son
My son?
You're crazy
And I don't even know you
I am Yeung Tit Sum, a solicitor
Fong Ling is my great friend
and also my client
Before she passed away,
she commissioned me to find you
If you don't believe me,
I can arrange a DNA test for you two
You look for the wrong guy
Wait!
Do one last simple request,
and you can have 30K
These are real money,
why would there be such good deals?
She forced me to have it, I couldn't say no
So, did you date that woman before?
Yes,
a while before prison
Then the lawyer was right
Even so,
it doesn't necessarily mean that he is my son
How can you be so irresponsible?
Look at him,
that's a real man
Yes, that's it. Look at me
Good
He is just stupid
Taking care of someone else's life
for just a tremble
I am not that stupid
But,
she is not requiring you to take care of him
She is paying for you to sign a form,
to give up your custody
Wise guy saying
"Rushing a deal, something must be fishy"
She is willing to pay you 30K,
means the kid must be worth more than 30K
Why didn't you say so?
Driver, could you please turn on your headlights?
Why do you need lights during the day?
Turn on for them, it's included in the fee
Hey!
I found something
Fong Yuen, you're up
Fong Yuen
Sorry
I know you guys have been waiting for so long,
but our primary guest is...
having a stomachache
So everyone,
please be patient
He arrived
Welcome, please
take a seat
Congratulations, Fong Yuen
Your book "I believe I am ME",
sold 200 thousand copies
as soon as it was published. That's amazing!
Give some applause first
Amazing
[t's also been 1st on
Amazon Asia Spiritual and
inspirational people's thought category
"Don't lie to gain people's trust;
Gradually, you will become a trustworthy person."
I wasn't having a stomachache,
I was late because
I was playing games
Could you share with us...
"Walking makes me happy;
realising that I can walk makes me even happier.
Walking faster, and started running.
Knowing I could run makes me happy"
Do you understand?
You mean that we...
should cherish what we have
Yes, because...
No...
Thing...
Nothing...
is...
- is...
- in...
in...
- inevitable
- inevitable!
Nothing is inevitable
Yes, yes
Well said
So many fans, he's talented
The genes are too great
You have such a great son,
there must be benefits to knowing him
Rumours said you've never met your father
Queenie said she hasn't found him yet
Kid, your Dad is right here
He came back for you
He is your father
Not me, him!
Hey
My son
I am your father
Are you really his father?
Yes.
Then why did you say you didn't find him?
This makes me angry just by thinking about it
A despicable, shameless,
heartless person
is stopping me from seeing my son
Liar? Who?
That person is
she!
What are you doing here?
I explained thoroughly before you signed it
Now you are unilaterally retorting
I'll retain the right to sue you,
or even get a restraining order from the court
You don't have to intimidate me with your laws
You lied to me about so many things
You are a wolf in sheep's clothing
separating me and my son
I can sue you for fraud
Go ahead
I am all in!
Can you let me talk to him?
Are you really my Dad?
Without a doubt
Don't listen to the outsiders' aspersion
She is a liar
"The grown-up world is complicated;
Sometimes it's unclear
who's right and who's wrong."
This is written in my book, page 56
What?
That means you are the liar here
I don't know,
but that doesn't matter
I want to ask if you are
willing to take care of me
Blood is thicker than water
It's a father's duty to provide for his son
It's only natural.
Please have a seat
What else do you want to ask Dad? Go ahead
Are you thankful for your hair?
Nah
Hair is troublesome,
you have to cut it when it's long
"Hair protects my skull,
I am thankful for it every day"
Are you thankful for your hands?
I am fine with my left hand,
but not so much with my right hand
If it's not because of it, I won't be here today
"My hands help me get what I need,
I am thankful for them every day"
How about your legs?
"My legs help me walk, I am thankful for them"
"My legs help me walk, I am thankful for them"
Mom taught me to be grateful to my body
whenever she bathed me
If you think so too, then
Congratulations
You've passed
You can move in with me anytime
What? Your ex-girlfriend left you
three million dollars?
Her will states that,
if I live with the kid for over 18 months
and he still wants me to be his father
Then I can have the three million dollars
Wait
What about eighteen months later?
Do you still have to raise him?
It didn't say that.
But I am getting away once I have all the money
Also,
I may not need to be with the kid for 18 months
Why?
The solicitor said
there is a tumour in that kid's head
It may rupture anytime soon
Once he is down,
that three million dollars will be mine
Wow, what the fuck, man
You fucking asshole
Do you long for your son to die?
Not only do you have problems
with your character,
you also have issues with your personality
Just kidding, man
You're fucking sick, man
Ten years have passed
Eighteen months is too easy
I am getting everything back this one time
Don't worry,
I will look after you when I am rich
Lek
Finish this
Don't come back after you step out of this door
You're right
I am making myself clear now,
there are many rules to obey when you stay here
I've already listed it out
Number 1, don't...
Recitation? I can read
30K? Give it back to me
Delayed but not denied
I'll give you a month
If you don't pay me back, I will sue your ass off
Everything's done?
it's nothing to do with you, you can leave
Stand right there
I got to go now
Call me whenever you need me, okay?
Okay
Bye
You'd better be careful
Hey, Dad is here
Rule number 1 is no smoking
You play your games, I smoke my cigarette
I am not minding your business
"Games are a garden in my mind"
And smoking is a villa in my heart
Who are you calling?
Queenie
Who's Queenie?
The one who just left
No need to call! Dad is going to pee
Mom said,
"Life is about encountering;
it's just fate, no right or wrong"
This is my first time knowing that
two people from different worlds
can be so different
Dad is a little different from
what Mom has told me
Mom never mentions that he is so casual,
and too easy-going
Maybe he has changed over the past ten years
I don't think I am anything like him
I sometimes doubt
if he really is my Dad
It seems that we are
a thousand steps away from each other
But if I take the first step forward
our distance will only have 999 steps left
On the bright side, ever since he moved in,
the house became more lively
You should put your towel back on, Miss
You may get a cold
I'm sorry
Hey, you!
Hey!
Hey!
According to Section 122 of Chapter 200
of the Laws of Hong Kong
Do you know what you just did?
You can be charged with
the crime of indecent assault
The maximum penalty upon conviction is ten years
I don't know
Who let you bring women back here?
Who?
Stop lying
I make myself very clear
You are not allowed to bring
any animals into this house
Have some respect,
don't say that
Walking around with no clothes on.
I don't see anything else but animals
Fine
I will go to the hotel next time,
I won't bring any more animals back
What time is it? Why are you still sleeping?
What do you want?
According to rule number five,
you must get a stable job
No fooling around
Have you got a job yet?
No
Then get your ass up now and go find one
Or I will kick you out
Okay
I am going now, happy?
Jesus
Shop owner,
how much is the second-hand VHS outside?
If you're interested,
I'll sell it to you for $300.
So expensive for an old machine?
Can I try?
George Foreman was 45 years old by then,
challenging 26 years old champion Michael Moorer
That's what we call "tough as old boots".
George Foreman retired for more than a decade,
became a community pastor
He came out of retirement for this fight
to raise funds for a children's school.
He is doing this wholeheartedly
What's the purpose of it?
In a fight, youth often prevails.
See, he can't even stand on his feet
with the jabs he took
You don't win with more punches
Keep your guard up
Keep your strength
Just one chance
You just need one chance to win
"Sir, would you like to join our membership?"
I am looking for your boss, Lam Fung Chaun
Chaun is not here. Please wait for a while
You come to be my sparring partner
without extra training?
Piece of crap!
- Come, take a break
- Come out now
Who wants to fight me?
$500
$1,000
Go home to your kids
Hey, bearded guy!
What's the fun in punching bags?
Come up and fight me
Let me fix your stance.
Pounds or US dollars?
Not wearing anything?
You may get hurt
Let's talk if you are still standing after round 1
Getting rusty
Are you okay?
You can take a break if you need,
I can see your feet shaking
Deep breath, find your rhythm
Take your time
Better than that crap just now
No need to take the fight to him
You don't have to fight it the hard way
Slip
Slide
Counter
Who is paying for him?
Not bad, are you a boxer?
What does it have to do with you?
I am Chow Yiu Shan, I am a boxing coach
Chow Yiu Shan? Never heard of that
I see potential in you
Let me train you
I can make you a champion
Sure, I'll call you if I'm interested
Start driving, thanks
He is almost an hour late. Is he coming?
Let's leave
We can't, we haven't paid rent for the studio
Just wait a little longer
He is not coming
Let's go
I told you to take Wun Sha Street
"That's over ten dollars more!
Are you messing with me?"
There's a traffic jam on that street
Jam? Do you have a say in Hong Kong?
Just my luck.
I'm generous to you, here
Sorry
Sorry, I'm a little late
Can you stop arguing for once?
But it's his bad
Thank you, uncle
You're welcome. It's my duty
Uncle is free now,
should we go back in and have another drink?
I'd like to hear what kind of music
you've been working on
Let's go
Hey
Your mom said you haven't been back for days
She asked me to have a chat with you
Come home with me
Did you tell her I am here?
It's the same every time
- Carrie
- Go away!
I told you not to give her money
You never listen to me
She rarely asks me for anything,
and it's not a large sum
I can't just ignore her
I try to discipline her, but you spoil her
How do you expect me to raise her like this?
You need to remember,
she lives with me now, not you
Don't be angry
Kids are like boxers
You need to teach and nurture them patiently
Chow Yiu Shan,
don't you play the doting father now
If you say another word,
I'll kick you out of this car right now
Okay, okay, I won't. It's my fault
I won't spoil her anymore
How have you been lately?
Working odd jobs here and there?
Getting by.
I work as a cutman, do whatever comes up
Making a living isn't a problem
How can you say it's not a problem?
I heard the last time you worked as a cutman,
you got into a dispute with the coach again
How the coach trains his boxers
is none of your business
Who's going to hire you after this?
Did that happen? I forgot
Look at your attitude
Your daughter is just like you
She takes more after you
I'm here. This is my stop
Hey
If you need anything, just let me know anytime
Give you back your trash
Hey, what's wrong with you
It's all broken
Whatever,
Fill in the form
What form? Application form?
Take off your clothes
I said, take off your clothes
Pose
What pose?
Put it back on
What for?
You want me to be a model?
You're replacing Cyrus the day after tomorrow
Fight what? A hot pot dinner?
You hurt Cyrus,
so you are fighting for him
Insane
Why should I fight?
I booked several tables that day
It's okay you don't fight,
pay for my loss!
What kind of contest is that?
You can't just replace a contestant that easily?
Finished?
Not yet
Okay, continue
Hello?
Speaking
I'm Fong Yuen's class teacher, my surname is Lam
Hello, Mr Fong
Ms Lam, my surname is Cheung
I'm sorry, Mr Cheung.
I forgot that Fong Yuen
takes his mother's surname
What's the urgent matter?
Mr Cheung, you smoke, right?
You smoke Marlboro Reds
Schools are so strict these days
They need to know what brand of
cigarettes the parents smoke?
This pack was found in Fong Yuen's school bag
Sorry, I might have
accidentally dropped it in his bag
I didn't teach him to smoke
He doesn't even like people who smoke
Fong Yuen's grades and
conduct have always been excellent
The school is aware that he's going through
a significant change in his life right now
So the school is quite concerned about him
His mother passed away
It has been hard on him
But now he has me, his father.
He'll be fine in no time
Everything will be back to normal
Fong Yuen's grades have slipped
Especially in Mathematics,
it's dropped significantly
Studying is all about getting a job in the future
He already earns a considerable income
from his writing
He doesn't need to study so hard
Mr Cheung, I doubt Fong Yuen's mother
would have taught him that
That's the problem.
Spare the rod, spoil the child
Ms Lam, there's no need to worry
If that's all, I'll be going now
Can I have this pack of cigarettes back?
A hundred-dollar pack, and I've only smoked two
Thank you
Fong Yuen, go get the ball
Kid, you got a death wish?
Do they bully you often?
Are you scared?
If you're scared, they'll bully you for life
They think I'm a freak
People reject those who are different from them
So, they're the ones who are afraid of me
Not me being afraid of them
Nonsense
If you weren't afraid, you wouldn't back down
Let me teach you a couple of moves to
teach them a lesson next time
Violence doesn't solve anything
Kobu Takashi, representing Nokawa Boxing gym,
23 years old
He became a professional boxer for four years
He remains undefeated with a record
of 8 wins and 2 draws
His aggressive fighting style has
knocked out many strong opponents.
His aggressive fighting style has
knocked out many strong opponents.
- Touch hands, and return to your corner
- He is the fastest-rising star in Japan right now
- Touch hands, and return to your corner
- He is the fastest-rising star in Japan right now
As for HK, Cheung Lek from
Fu Chun Boxing gym is the boxer tonight
He is 34 years old
According to the records,
this is his first professional fight in Hong Kong
That means, he has no wins
Rumour said he was replacing an injured boxer
Rumour said he was replacing an injured boxer
It seems that he is no match for Kobu
The bout is divided into four rounds
Let's wait and see if Cheung Lek can surprise us
Be smart, finish all four rounds
You don't have to win, just don't get knocked out!
Okay?
The bout starts with
both boxers playing carefully,
trying to ascertain the strength of the opponent
Why does your boxer keep running away?
He's just testing
Two minutes after the bout starts,
Cheung Lek mainly jumps and escapes,
sometimes clinching, quite pessimistic
I got an expensive ticket
Hold on, don't let down your guard
The first round has just finished
Two boxers rarely touched each other
My guess is Kubo is leading with more points
That's right
Yes, that's right. Hang in there
That's right
Wow, working as a commentator for that many years,
this is my first time seeing someone
vomit just after the first round
Let's go buy a drink
Clean that up now
Box
Kubo starts his attack this round,
very aggressive attack from the start
Lek keeps getting hit
Go clinch him, don't give him space
Yes, don't let go
Back...
Back...
Kubo's attack didn't stop
His hooks are powerful. Cheung Lek got hit
Cheung Lek was finally knocked down,
after receiving the hook from Kubo
Get up! You find gold on the canvas?
Get up!
One...
Two...
Three...
You've won five amateur competitions in 2002
You've won the Golden Gloves Boxing Award in 2008
and earn the title "Golden Boy"
Four...
Five...
Hey!
What are you doing?
What is this?
Kubo has been rude to Cheung Lek
- I'm warning
- You that you must receive a penalty
Step back
Step back
Box
Back
It's a foul, come on
Break
Catch your breath
He's too arrogant, don't let him get away!
Move more, punch more
Fight him!
Understand?
Stay Strong
Right from the start,
two boxers are both throwing punches
as if their lives depended on it
They are not stopping
Go!
Yes!
Beat him!
Clinch him, don't let go
Yes, attack!
End him!
That's right
Yes, that's it
Cheung Lek got hit multiple times
but has yet to fall
That may be the unbeatable spirit of Hong Kong
You can say that!
But he will still lose, due to the lost points
Why is he standing?
Listen, calm down
All you need to do is take it to him now
Punch first, don't follow his rhythm.
Trust me
That's how you should do it! Fight!
Fight? Are you telling him to commit suicide?
- You...
- Are you trying to kill him?
You what? Get lost!
Got hit enough?
You're taller than him,
and your hands are longer than his
Don't get close, wait for him
Move back and lean on him, understand?
Move back and lean on him!
You're just a little rusty
You're going to win
Go!
Your boxer is a little different this round,
maybe he can win
Hit him
Wait for the chance
One...
Two...
Three...
Four...
Five...
Six...
Seven...
Eight...
Nine...
Ten...
Yeah!
Cheung Lek knocked Kubo out with
one punch unexpectedly!
A knockout blow!
The 34-year-old Cheung Lek
stood till the last moment.
He finally knocked out his
11-year-younger opponent!
Great job!
Good fight!

Thank you, please finish the last shot
Our boxer needs to rest. Thank you

- Okay
Your tail phalanx may have broken
But it's fine, not a big deal
Soak it in the ice for a while,
and you'll feel better
I wanna take a shower
Okay
Is it legal to smoke indoors?
Cheers! It's a great day today
Cheers!
Come on
With a face like this,
I shouldn't be having a midnight snack, right?
It's alright,
you should eat a little to gain some strength
Your face scares off people
not because of the bleeding
as foul-mouthed as you are
I don't care
Start eating...
Let's eat
Thanks
Your son is such a good boy
What's your name? How old are you?
My name is Fong Yuen, and I am 10
Fong Yuen, here
I am Chow Yiu Shan
Shan as in hill?
Then I will call you Uncle Hill
Uncle Hill
This is the first time
I got this nickname, not bad
Thanks for your help just now, Uncle Hill
It's okay, I wanna help
But if you keep talking back to the coach,
you'll lose your job
I'll quit if they wanna fire me
Cool
Give me a chance, let me be your coach
I will... no
How about we work together to make you a champion?
I'm 34 years old. Isn't this fight enough?
George Foreman fought that match when he was 45
You're just in your thirties
I, on the other hand, think you may be too young
Nah
I may not be that lucky next time
"You feel scared because you want to do it;
If you don't want to do it,
you won't feel anything"
Why do you speak like an old man?
So funny
This is the first time
I've received such a compliment
My son is an author, smart, right?
An author?
You have my respect
So listen to the author, do it
You don't enjoy boxing in the ring?
Of course, you can refuse it
But if you don't,
then you'd better be ready tomorrow...
And find a proper security job
or a dishwasher job
Your voice gives me a headache
You let Kubo hit you in the head,
"now you're blaming me?"
What do you know about boxing?
Be careful of your own head
So you wanna hit me now?
- Hit me!
- I'm gonna hit you!
- Are you scared?
- I'm not gonna hit you
"Sharpen the pencil, and it reveals its true,
sharp nature
It's a wonderful thing."
Okay
Doesn't matter whether it's a pencil or a utensil
Let's get the golden belt together
Great!
Yeah, cheers
Cheers!
Morning Dad
This egg is for your bruises, not for eating
Uncle Hill and I are on the roof
Fix this
You'll need both hands for your next match
Start with one hand first
Straight arms
That's right, slowly
Slowly, yes
What are you guys doing in the morning?
Morning. Still spitting blood?
No, but there is blood in the urine
That's okay, you'll be fine in two days
Straight punch
This is hard, Uncle Hill
This is a Double-End Bag for you
to train your rhythm
Think in your mind...
Try
You can
I don't get what the fun is in boxing,
too much bleeding
That is precisely the fun part
Boxing is not just about the techniques
It also tests your will
Your strongest opponent is not your competitors,
it's yourself
To win yourself, can you imagine how hard that is?
Get it?
I don't, but this sounds meaningful
Give me some time to think about it
Of course, take your time
But don't stop, okay?
Don't smoke too much, dear
It'll affect your vocal cords
How did you know this place?
I am your Dad,
a father can always sniff his daughter out
By the way, your singing is really beautiful
Do you know music?
Don't pretend that you understand
The more I listen, the more I understand
I heard that you guys are having a show soon
If it's not too troublesome,
can you save me a ticket?
So I can learn more
Carrie,
I remember today is your birthday
Happy Birthday
I bought this for you,
take this back with you.
You can bring it back
and share it with your friends. Here
I said I don't want it
That's okay
Dad saw many bakeries on my way here,
Dad can go get another one
Stop saying that you are my Dad!
Which part of you looks like my Dad?
But I really am your Dad...
Is being a Dad anything like you?
Do dads know nothing about their daughters?
Who told you today is my birthday?
My birthday is tomorrow
And I've hated strawberries
my entire life!
I'm sorry
Dad is getting old,
keep forgetting things
You're not forgetting things,
You just assumed I knew nothing all along
You and Mom got divorced
because she is having someone outside
No, is Dad...
I was ten at that time,
I was not two
You think that makes you a great Dad?
I know,
You think I would be better off staying with Mom
But have you ever asked me once?
Why would you think I'll be happier with her?
But the court gave you to...
Stop making excuses, okay?
If you ever cared for me,
you would have taken me with you
Not leaving me alone
with that complicated woman
for ten whole years!
"Why have a parent conference again?"
Mr Cheung
Fong Yuen hit his classmates at recess
They are not in the same weight category
Are you mistaken?
It should be my son who got hit
Mistaken?
See for yourself
My son was almost disfigured
You again? Fat boy
You must have bullied my son first
Mr Cheung, it's Fong Yuen
who hit Tsui Tsz Tung this time
Mr Cheung, it's Fong Yuen
who hit Tsui Tsz Tung this time
Did you see it?
I've looked into this
Tsui Tsz Tung took the love letter
Fong Yuen wrote for a girl
and made fun of him, so...
He asked for it
You reap what you sow
Hey, are you insane?
Your son hits someone.
How could you teach your son like this?
Ma'am
"Perhaps you should start asking yourself,
'What kind of Mom are you?"
Teaching your son to be a bully
Even without my son,
someone would have done this eventually
What did you say?
How could you say that?
Please calm down
Tsui Tsz Tung has done something wrong,
but Fong Yuen has a bigger problem:
hitting a classmate
He broke a severe school rule
Schools must handle this impartially
What do you mean?
According to school rules,
he must receive a serious demerit
But this will affect my son's school records,
no way
Look, it's a common thing for kids to fight
Regardless of who started it,
let's shake it off
and pretend nothing had happened
Of course not
Miss Lam, don't waste our time
Let's go find the headmaster now
At least give him a serious demerit
Or better yet, kick him out of this school
Ma'am, see
You wouldn't be happy if someone laughed at you
while you're having sex
with your husband, right?
Watch your mouth!
Okay, stop pointing at me
You wanna see the headmaster, right?
Then I'm gonna find the school supervisor,
the director and the press,
making this a bigger fuss
and we are not afraid
Did you see this, Miss Lam?
Both of them are behaving like this
No room for negotiation?
No! Move!
How about this? Mr Cheung, can you ask Fong Yuen
to say sorry to Tsui first,
and we'll see how it goes
Then we decide what
punishment he would receive, okay?
Miss Lam, that's more like it
The deal is good, what do you think?
I fought for you,
from two years to probation
and you still refused
"If you do anything without meaning it,
it's meaningless
Be brave and do what you really mean,
that is the real you"
You are the man
Thanks Dad
Thank what?
You are the first one who stands up for me,
besides Mom
We are father and son, that's what we do
Did you jab punch that fat boy?
Not with your arm, but swing with your waist
Please don't do it next time, it's dangerous
Let me see
See what?
That girl's photo
You like her that much, she must be pretty.
Could you show me?
No
No? You must have a photo of her
I'm your father. Stop being selfish
I said no
Fine, introduce her to me next time
Okay
Dad, I want an ice cream
Chan Ka Fai, Fong Lam Hoi
Don't you ever put your trash in my backpack again
Two ice creams, please
Sure, grab them yourself
Now pick up the trash from the floor
Hey, Lek
We're gonna be rich this time
An agency reached out to me
saying they want to make you a KOL
in the boxing world
What "L"? You mean the "L" in "Knocked-Out Loser"
Who cares what they call it
But you can earn thousands
by just taking a few photos
No way, really?
Yes way!
That's the outcome of that million-view video
from the last match
You don't need to know what it is,
just do it!
Don't do it! Shan will scold the crap out of you
Move!
Crap!
Go do your practice,
don't get in your boss's way!
Don't listen to him!
Jessica, Mr Chow has arrived
Hi, Chairman
Shan, haven't seen you for a long time
Yes, it is. Why are you here?
You should have come to find me
You are so busy
So what's the matter? Why did you call me?
We heard you're currently looking for sponsors
Why didn't you come to me?
Right, I should have
It didn't come up to me
Are you training a boxer named Cheung Lek?
You are pretty well informed
Of course, we saw the video on the internet too
The comments are great
People say he has the
unbeatable spirit of Hong Kong
Many likes
Yes indeed
We are sponsoring a competition,
The Chairman and I were thinking that perhaps
Cheung Lek should fight in one of the matches
That would be great!
No problem!
- Thank you!
- Great
Should we talk more at dinner tonight?
I'm sorry, I won't be able to make it tonight
Me too
What a coincidence
It's Mother's Day today,
and I will be eating with my daughter
Hip, hip, hurray
What are we cheering for?
We joined a competition
Really?
We'll be in the ring in three months
Your opponent is strong,
we need to have extra training starting now
No problem!
This is such great news.
Let's cheer three more times
Hip, hip, hurray
Let's go celebrate with a good meal
Don't you think about the meals,
not only the extra training,
but you also need to start eating healthy,
understand?
Then why are you buying all these burgers?
Because me and Fong Yuen,
we are going to celebrate Mother's Day together
This is your favourite double cheeseburger
Thank you, Uncle Hill
Today is Mother's Day? I didn't notice
Stop speaking, start running now
Ten loops! Now!
- Are you insane? How can I run in here
- Be Quick...
Is it good?
It's delicious
On previous Mother's Days,
Mom always took me to the park
You must have a reason for
bringing me here this time
When my daughter was little,
she really wanted me to bring her here to play
She said...
...that eating a hamburger while looking at
the sea tastes especially good
So you have a daughter
What's her name?
Carrie
How old is she?
20 years old
What does she do?
She loves being in a band
And she sings beautifully
Why don't we ask her to celebrate together?
I'd love to...
...but it's impossible
She's still mad at me
It makes no sense
No one stays angry at their parents forever
Because I haven't been a good father
I don't even know what she likes
And I always break my promises to her
I even got her birthday wrong
I'm such a failure as a dad
A dad is a dad
How can you define a successful or failed one?
Let me ask you
What makes a successful father?
Maybe... if she would listen to what I say
I've realised something recently
As long as you do your best in everything,
you'll like yourself more and more
and others will come to like you too
Okay
The doctor said it would take
another eight weeks for him to recover
Shan, how about this
I have a boxer in mainland China
He has great potential,
he already won the provincial championship
at the age of twenty
He just fired his coach
I'll pass him to you
That doesn't sound right
I can't give Lek up like this
Chairman, could you please give me some time?
I'll talk him out
I'll report to you later
Are you giving up on this competition yourself?
I promised Lek that I would be there with him
I can't work with others
just because of a minor problem
It's such an unethical thing, count me out
What if he can't fight anymore?
What are you gonna do by then?
I'll figure it out when it happens
I am not a person who plans ahead
This is how you've always been,
You never have a plan,
you never think about your own future
Okay...
I don't mind what you say,
this is out of the discussion
It's him and me, or nothing
Chow Yiu Shan, let's face the truth
Do you think you are still the same as before?
You're done!
The Chairman wouldn't have given you this
opportunity if it weren't for me
Quit being so naive, okay?
Who are you to teach me how to be a coach?
Have you ever been a coach?
Do you know how hard it is to stand back up
after an athlete hits rock bottom?
He believes in me,
and I go work with someone else?
Winning means nothing without him!
I can't do such an unethical thing
Can anything be worse than this now?
Your bad temper scares off everyone
in this industry
Your bad temper scares off everyone
in this industry
That's who I am,
and it gets me here
So what?
Can you do one decent thing for your daughter?
I don't want her to look down on you
No matter how bad I am, I still have my principles
End of discussion!
Hey!
Found him?
He didn't pick up his phone
Keep calling!
Also available in banana flavour!
Wanna punch hard and be full of energy
Try the newly launched banana flavour

Stop
Imagine you are a banana,

You said you understand
You look like a banana that nobody wants
But director,
I am a breathing human,
how can I not be fresher than a banana?
I am a breathing human,
how can I not be fresher than a banana?
Meal Break!
Mendoza, according to your records
You always KO your opponent
Are you confident you can knock out your opponent,
Law Keung, today?
I need three rounds to knock him out
He is not gonna wake up after
Easy work!
Cheung Lek, get ready
Why didn't you come to training today?
And you're not picking up your phone
I am streaming, I am busy
What?
Chaun found me an agent,
who is going to make me a KOL
I should spend my time talking to my fans
to keep my popularity
Are you done?
Go back to training if you have finished
Chaun will take me to meet a client later
I don't have time today
So you're giving boxing up to be a KOL?
How am I supposed to fight?
Count me out, I will box no more
What do you mean?
What's the point of training so hard
and getting all banged up?
For the money, of course
Now that I am a KOL,
I can earn thousands just by shooting commercials
Even the dumbest can choose
I am calling Chaun to refuse all the jobs for you
Don't cut off my financial resources
- Give it to me!
- Back off!
What are you guys doing?
Nothing
Nothing, go back to your room
Go!
I used to box
I can relate
The recovery will only take a few months
I will arrange another match for you
as soon as you recover
Are you deaf?
Stop acting like a girl
Did Jessica talk to you?
Who's Jessica?
Got to go, suit yourself
I'm not done with it yet,
we must make it clear today
Get out of my way!
- You can't leave like this
- Get out of my way!
Fine
You wanna be a KOL?
But remember...
You'll regret it
Why do you shower so late?
The patient's brain tumour has increased by 0.2cm,
and blocked the blood circulation inside the brain
That's the reason why he fainted
Why did the tumour grow?
Numerous uncertainties would cause this to happen
Numerous uncertainties would cause this to happen
So what should we do?
Should we remove the tumour immediately?
The tumour is very close to the artery
The risk of undergoing surgery is very high
What do you mean?
Many illnesses in the world
can't be healed with modern technology
As a patient's family member,
what you can do is very limited
We can only help the patient face it positively
Seriously, why are you so worried?
This was what you expected, wasn't it?
Once the tumour ruptures,
and your son dies
The three million will be all yours
Better than winning the lottery
Just kidding man
I wanna cheer you up
It's all because of my greed
If I don't get to know him, nothing will happen
He is just a child
The tumour could burst at any time
Tell me,
How does he get through such a long life?
Study hard from now on
Thank you, Uncle Beard
This is for you
Thank you, Uncle Beard
Good girl
Hong, don't eat too much durian
These are healthier
Thank you
You're welcome
Pi,
These are the tutorial fee
This is too much
No worry, buy some good food for your wife
Thanks
Why do you seem like
you're leaving your last words
You're not thinking of leaving, are you?
Bro, help me take care of my son
Are you out of your mind?
Even if my car breaks down,
I wouldn't just leave it on the street like that
this is your son we're talking about!
I don't have a brother like you
Dad got a job as a sailor
I will go to Paraguay first, then Panama
And Paris lastly
I can travel the world and
earn money at the same time
Rest assured, I will become the captain,
sail the ship back and set sail for the world
Oh
What did you say you're gonna be again?
Sailor
I can understand
When Mom is sick,
I have the same thought, to be a sailor
Dad
Can you hold my hand again?
"What is death?
You won't understand if you've never been there.
Death is a mystery
People get scared when they are facing the unknown
This is human nature"
But I am not scared
You gave me courage
I promised Mom that
I would get along well with you
And I did
Dad, how about you?
Excuse me, Mr Cheung
It's time for Fong Yuen to take his medicine
I open it whenever I feel down
I'm giving this to you as a gift for your voyage
Nurse,
I finally understand the difference between
adults and children
What's the difference?
Adults always let children down
Silly, who taught you this?
Fong Yuen
I know you will miss Mom
Mom misses you too. But that's okay
Separation is only a physical distance
Mentally, Mom has never left
I'll always be with you
Adults' world is too complicated
When you grow up,
You'll encounter many problems
that cannot be solved
There will be people and things that
you don't want to face
But be brave and optimistic about it
All issues will surely be resolved
Courage is the most valuable spirit
Always remember this
Queenie promised me
She will look for your father after I pass away
Your father...
He promised me
he would win the golden belt for me
You need to give him some time,
to see his good side
I am sure you'll get to like him
One last reminder from Mom,
"Live the best you can
Strive to enrich others,
while perfecting yourself."
Keep it up, Fong Yuen
Are you really leaving?
Where's your humanity?
I don't believe it when George tells me...
He's so troublesome
Give this back to Fong Yuen for me
You are so cold-blooded
After spending all these time together,
you don't have feelings for him?
After spending all these time together,
you don't have feelings for him?
I thought you were smart,
but you're just an empty vessel
Three whole millions dollars!
Of course, I have to act and please him,
or I may lose all these money
But I gave up
- Let go!
- Stand there! Don't you go!
- Let go of me!
- But you are his father!
You...
After all this,
how could you think only about your own?
He is just a boy
He has already lost his mother
And now you have to leave too?
Then what's the difference between you and trash?
Say something!
Yes!
I am trash!
I've become trash ten years ago
No one is born a trash
I was impulsive back then
and I did something wrong
I admit my fault and received my punishment
Just one punch
I lost everything
But what did I do wrong this time?
What did I do wrong?
I cherish the son God gave me
Why take him now?
I'm terrified
I've faced many tough opponents in the ring before
I've never been afraid
"But this time I'm terrified"
I'd rather never get to know him
I was scared that I would watch him go, you know?
I don't...
You're just escaping
It's useless to escape
Did you know how much happier
Fong Yuen is after he met you
I haven't seen him smile like this for so long
You mean so much to him, do you know that
Can you show the courage that you have
when you stand in the ring?
- You are a boxer
- I am not a boxer!
I am not a dad! I am nothing!
I'm not qualified to be a father
I can't beat fate
If one person can't beat fate,
how about two?
Uncle Hill did what he promised
Three months later, Dad is back in the ring
In the ring, he can finally be himself
Come on...
Cheung Lek, your opponent this time is Mendoza,
nicknamed "Killing Tiger",
who once permanently disabled two opponents
The boxer who replaced you last time, Lo Keung
got knocked out in the third round
With such a strong opponent,
what is your strategy?
I think a nickname is just a way to call someone
If you like, you can call me "Zombie" too
Maybe in the ring,
the tiger will be bitten to death by the zombie
Man, you'd better give your son a kiss
cause I'm gonna Kill you on 19th July
What did you say?
- Come on
- Just ignore him
Are you nervous?
No
You?
Not really
Do you remember what I told you?
You told me a lot of things
Next up is tonight's BBE belt match
The first to appear is the 34-year-old boxer,
with six wins, zero losses, three knockouts
And the one
with the unbeatable spirit of Hong Kong,
Cheung Lek
Cheung Lek's previous bitter battle
with Kubo Takashi
How wonderful and tragic the win was
Since that match,
netizens nicknamed him "Zombie"
for his incredible endurance
This time, his opponent is much stronger
How will Cheung Lek fight this time
Let's wait and see
The next to appear is the 26-year-old boxer,
with eighteen wins, one loss and ten knockouts,
Three of them were beaten to permanently disabled
This is the "Killing Tiger", Mendoza
with his powerful right hooks
No matter experience, age or strength,
Mendoza is better than Cheung Lek
At the pre-match press conference
Mendoza once threatened
to knock down Lek within two rounds
See if he can keep his word
You had your instructions in the dressing room
Obey my commands at all times; any questions?
Nah!
You ready, old man?
I'm gonna Kill you in front of your son
You should've been a boss...
Let's go!
This man can only brag, ignore him
Stick to the game plan
Make sure he knows this ring belongs to you
this ring belongs to you
The bout officially begins
It was estimated that Lek will
adopt a defensive stance at the beginning
But surprisingly,
Lek is the one who takes the initiative
Control him..
Well, Mendoza starts to fight back
Mendoza's left hook was
famous for its speed and weight
A right hook has already
split open the skin above Lek's eye
Box
- Yeah! That's it! Come on!
- Yes! Keep moving!
- Hang on...
- Hang in there...
Stop
Is his punch heavy?
Fucking heavy
Can you hold it?
I can
The punch won't stay heavy forever
It'll be getting lighter and lighter,
you understand?
That's all he can do, follow the deployment
You can do it
Got it
Box
The second round starts with
Lek is changing his strategy,
letting Mendoza get closer
Seems like he wants to fight a war of attrition
with his opponent
Mendoza lives up to the name "Killing Tiger",
Mendoza lives up to the name "Killing Tiger",
after a round of sudden attack,
he gained the upper hand
Did he really plan to knock Lek down
in the second round?
- Mendoza looks very confident
- Hang on
Working as a commentator for that many years,
I've never seen someone
despise his opponent like this
Although Lek was hit by Mendoza many times,
but none of it was a big punch either
Yes!
Yeah!
Stop
One...
Two...
Three...
Four...
Five...
Six...
Seven...
Eight...
Box
Stop
You fucking dick
Feeling good?
Yea
You attack him by surprise,
of course that feels good
But how much longer can you take his punch?
You can do it, you must
Have faith in yourself
The second round is over
Unexpectedly, Mendoza failed to knock out Lek,
Lek knocked him down instead
What the fuck are you doing?
You should have finished him
in the first two rounds
Stop playing! Finish!
Finish Him
Hang on
Are you in pain?
Yes
It's good that it hurts.
If it didn't, you wouldn't be human.
But so is he
He feels more painful than you, you know?
He is not on your level
You're gonna kill him in the next round
Mendoza is getting nervous
He is really determined to end Lek in this round
But Lek stay strong
Their score is tight
Mendoza got hit a lot, too
- That's what I am talking about
- Good job
Stop!
- To corner
- Lek got beaten so badly,
- To corner
- Lek got beaten so badly,
- Your boxer isn't doing so well
- that he even got the position of his corner wrong
You know shit
How many more rounds can Lek endure
if he keeps fighting like this?
Lek...
Box
Twelve minutes
Twelve more minutes and you could win
Your son is watching you
The whole world is looking at you
Can you hang on to it?
Yes
Louder!
Yes!
I am running out of breath
Hit him
Yeah
Stop! Back to your corner!
Lek has made it this far
only to take another right hook from Mendoza
Get up!
Lek, get up!
Get up!
"Sharpen the pencil,
and it reveals its true, sharp nature
It's a wonderful thing."
A pencil is a pencil. Whatever it is,
let's get that golden belt together!
Your Dad promised to win the golden belt for me
Your Dad promised to win the golden belt for me
I finally know the difference
between adults and children
That adults always let children down
Yeah!
Yeah!
Zombie really is unbeatable!
Fuck!
Still okay?
If not, I will hoist the white flag
Your life matters more,
we still have many opportunities
Shan
Adults should not disappoint children
I don't wanna let my son down
Fighting in the ring is just like one's life
Whoever has a stronger
will can endure till the end.
At this stage of the game,
it is no longer about skills
It's not about physical strength,
it's all about will
Stop wasting time
One...
Two...
Three...
Four...
Five...
Six...
Seven...
Eight...
Nine...
Ten...
Yeah!
Cheung Lek stood till the last minute
and won the match!
Cheung Lek stood till the last minute
and won the match!
At the age of 34,
Cheung Lek creates miracles again
He is the final champion
Don't cry. Dad made it
You have to beat this tumor too,
you understand?
Lek...
Dad
I've been thinking for quite some time,
I think my most significant achievement is
having such great parents
I'm so amazing, and so lucky
My Mom is an angel
My dad is the Golden Boy
Please welcome Fong Yuen
with warm applause
I first started writing to my troubled self
But this book,
I write this for my beloved father
Before this book club starts
Please open the last page
and take out your "heart"
I want to cheer for my Dad
Hope he can win the game
and also win for himself
Lek, I came up with an idea
There is a big market in the truck business
Let's make progress together,
maybe we can even make a team out of it
Truck team?
McLaren or Ferrari?
You can tell that I am a racing driver,
not a truck driver
Another red bean ice with ice cream, please
No, water is fine
If you keep having that, you'll ruin your stomach
How broke are you?
What is this? It tastes so bad
Ice Ribena with Sprite
What?
Ribena with Sprite
Why can't you drink something normal?
Red bean ice with ice cream
Hey, kid, don't drink that
I saw a fly on your drink
You are broke, right?
Just say so!
Waiter
One red bean ice with ice cream
and an ice Ribena with Sprite, on me
Coming right up!
Drink this first
Thanks
How can I call you?
Little Ho
Mr Ho, how generous
What are you doing?
Finally, there you are
I never hide
Kid, stop being so arrogant
What do you want?
What do people play now?
Street fighters
Is it still popular?
I'm talking about your friend out there
What? Touch me if you dare!
There is surveillance everywhere
You'll be going to jail
Hey, what's going on?
You guys are dead!
He damaged my car,
and I want him to pay for it now
So cut all the bullshit now
Did you do this? You need to pay for that
It's not my fault. He's just a terrible driver.
How bad? Tell me more
It isn't good!
Can't even describe how terrible it is
From what you say,
it seems like it's not your fault
Not me! They are morons
- Is the show over?
- That's dangerous...
I am getting hold of it!
Marlboro Red
I've already warned you, see what happens...
Wanna continue?
Watch where you go!
Weak!
When did we come back?
You bastard, why did you hit me there?
If not, how will we conclude this?
You're the one who said there are
surveillance cameras everywhere.
You wanna go back to jail?
Let me through
What's going on in this room?
This is worse than being in jail
This is normal in Hong Kong
It's pretty spacious here,
way worse than Pi
Pi who?
What is this?
Pi's daughter
Kid
Hey, Kid!
Still not stopping?
You'll be dead if I catch you
Kid!
Sorry, there isn't enough space
for the kids to play in here
I'm Sorry
I got durians
Hong bought us some durians
Yeah, Dad is back
They got stuff to eat
Dad
Where is my computer?
Two days
I will get it ready in two days
Two more days? I can't finish my homework
Be good
Come, have some curry
Are you George's friend?
Hong, this is Cheung Lek
Hey, Lek
Good timing
Try one, it's good
Which one should I eat, curry or durian?
We like to eat both at the same time
Yum
It's good
Try one
You can have my share
No, thank you
Lek
George said you're desperate for a job
They're hiring downstairs.
You should give it a try.
Dish washing?

It suits you
My hands are not for washing dishes
It's just a way to make money
When I was in India, I was a mathematics professor
But now I am a security
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade
So what, I am a lawyer
Oh Yeah, and I'm a driver.
I'm gonna call the cops right now
Okay, go ahead. You need me to help you with that?
Of course, give me your phone
Look, can you just cooperate and help me out here?
- You're wasting my time
- No! You give me your phone
- I'm gonna call the cops right...
- No! You are wasting my time
Nono! You are wasting my time
So don't waste my time, okay?
- No, I'm really gonna call the cops right now
- No! You are wasting my time
Starting the English channel in the early morning
This woman refuses to leave,
and tries to intimidate me with her English
Your grammar is getting better
Thank you, I learnt from you
Stop that
When you are having a fight,
add some swear words in
Is there still space for that?
Who cares, add it anywhere
I am a motherfucking driver
- Feeling great about it?
- Awesome
Are you guys done?
Are you Cheung Lek?
Who are you?
I need to talk to you
I'll wait for you downstairs in the tea house
I'll give you 3 minutes to put your pants on
Cheung Lek
Born in Hong Kong, 23rd August 1985
In 1999, you graduated from primary school
when you were fourteen
Then, following your uncle Li Fok Sum,
immigrated to San Francisco, America
Dropping out of school since then,
and without a job
Until 2002,
You started learning boxing in a boxing gym,
and became an amateur boxer
You won five amateur competitions in total
In 2008,
You've won the Golden Gloves Boxing Award,
and earned the title "Golden Boy"
Then you registered as a professional boxer
In March 2009,
Hong Kong boxing gym owner Lam Fung Chaun
signed you and brought you back to Hong Kong,
ready to participate in the upcoming
professional boxing contest
But two months after you came back,
which is May 2009,
In a nightclub,
you were groped by a businessman
named Lau Hung Shing
He groped you
Out of rage, you killed him with one single punch
Found guilty of manslaughter,
Sentenced to thirteen years in prison,
took you ten whole years, excluding the holidays
Just released from Stanley Prison yesterday
Am I right?
Who are you?
What do you want?
Did you recognise this woman?
No!
Her name is Fong Ling
Before you killed someone,
you and she went on a date
for a month in Hong Kong
Do you remember?
Nope
Then, do you remember that
after you sweet-talked her into bed,
right after you slept with her and went MIA?
No
She died of leukaemia two months ago
A glass of iced lemon Ribena, please
Sorry, we don't have that
How about Iced Ribena Sprite
This kid is Fong Yuen
He is now ten,
He is Fong Ling and your son
My son?
You're crazy
And I don't even know you
I am Yeung Tit Sum, a solicitor
Fong Ling is my great friend
and also my client
Before she passed away,
she commissioned me to find you
If you don't believe me,
I can arrange a DNA test for you two
You look for the wrong guy
Wait!
Do one last simple request,
and you can have 30K
These are real money,
why would there be such good deals?
She forced me to have it, I couldn't say no
So, did you date that woman before?
Yes,
a while before prison
Then the lawyer was right
Even so,
it doesn't necessarily mean that he is my son
How can you be so irresponsible?
Look at him,
that's a real man
Yes, that's it. Look at me
Good
He is just stupid
Taking care of someone else's life
for just a tremble
I am not that stupid
But,
she is not requiring you to take care of him
She is paying for you to sign a form,
to give up your custody
Wise guy saying
"Rushing a deal, something must be fishy"
She is willing to pay you 30K,
means the kid must be worth more than 30K
Why didn't you say so?
Driver, could you please turn on your headlights?
Why do you need lights during the day?
Turn on for them, it's included in the fee
Hey!
I found something
Fong Yuen, you're up
Fong Yuen
Sorry
I know you guys have been waiting for so long,
but our primary guest is...
having a stomachache
So everyone,
please be patient
He arrived
Welcome, please
take a seat
Congratulations, Fong Yuen
Your book "I believe I am ME",
sold 200 thousand copies
as soon as it was published. That's amazing!
Give some applause first
Amazing
[t's also been 1st on
Amazon Asia Spiritual and
inspirational people's thought category
"Don't lie to gain people's trust;
Gradually, you will become a trustworthy person."
I wasn't having a stomachache,
I was late because
I was playing games
Could you share with us...
"Walking makes me happy;
realising that I can walk makes me even happier.
Walking faster, and started running.
Knowing I could run makes me happy"
Do you understand?
You mean that we...
should cherish what we have
Yes, because...
No...
Thing...
Nothing...
is...
- is...
- in...
in...
- inevitable
- inevitable!
Nothing is inevitable
Yes, yes
Well said
So many fans, he's talented
The genes are too great
You have such a great son,
there must be benefits to knowing him
Rumours said you've never met your father
Queenie said she hasn't found him yet
Kid, your Dad is right here
He came back for you
He is your father
Not me, him!
Hey
My son
I am your father
Are you really his father?
Yes.
Then why did you say you didn't find him?
This makes me angry just by thinking about it
A despicable, shameless,
heartless person
is stopping me from seeing my son
Liar? Who?
That person is
she!
What are you doing here?
I explained thoroughly before you signed it
Now you are unilaterally retorting
I'll retain the right to sue you,
or even get a restraining order from the court
You don't have to intimidate me with your laws
You lied to me about so many things
You are a wolf in sheep's clothing
separating me and my son
I can sue you for fraud
Go ahead
I am all in!
Can you let me talk to him?
Are you really my Dad?
Without a doubt
Don't listen to the outsiders' aspersion
She is a liar
"The grown-up world is complicated;
Sometimes it's unclear
who's right and who's wrong."
This is written in my book, page 56
What?
That means you are the liar here
I don't know,
but that doesn't matter
I want to ask if you are
willing to take care of me
Blood is thicker than water
It's a father's duty to provide for his son
It's only natural.
Please have a seat
What else do you want to ask Dad? Go ahead
Are you thankful for your hair?
Nah
Hair is troublesome,
you have to cut it when it's long
"Hair protects my skull,
I am thankful for it every day"
Are you thankful for your hands?
I am fine with my left hand,
but not so much with my right hand
If it's not because of it, I won't be here today
"My hands help me get what I need,
I am thankful for them every day"
How about your legs?
"My legs help me walk, I am thankful for them"
"My legs help me walk, I am thankful for them"
Mom taught me to be grateful to my body
whenever she bathed me
If you think so too, then
Congratulations
You've passed
You can move in with me anytime
What? Your ex-girlfriend left you
three million dollars?
Her will states that,
if I live with the kid for over 18 months
and he still wants me to be his father
Then I can have the three million dollars
Wait
What about eighteen months later?
Do you still have to raise him?
It didn't say that.
But I am getting away once I have all the money
Also,
I may not need to be with the kid for 18 months
Why?
The solicitor said
there is a tumour in that kid's head
It may rupture anytime soon
Once he is down,
that three million dollars will be mine
Wow, what the fuck, man
You fucking asshole
Do you long for your son to die?
Not only do you have problems
with your character,
you also have issues with your personality
Just kidding, man
You're fucking sick, man
Ten years have passed
Eighteen months is too easy
I am getting everything back this one time
Don't worry,
I will look after you when I am rich
Lek
Finish this
Don't come back after you step out of this door
You're right
I am making myself clear now,
there are many rules to obey when you stay here
I've already listed it out
Number 1, don't...
Recitation? I can read
30K? Give it back to me
Delayed but not denied
I'll give you a month
If you don't pay me back, I will sue your ass off
Everything's done?
it's nothing to do with you, you can leave
Stand right there
I got to go now
Call me whenever you need me, okay?
Okay
Bye
You'd better be careful
Hey, Dad is here
Rule number 1 is no smoking
You play your games, I smoke my cigarette
I am not minding your business
"Games are a garden in my mind"
And smoking is a villa in my heart
Who are you calling?
Queenie
Who's Queenie?
The one who just left
No need to call! Dad is going to pee
Mom said,
"Life is about encountering;
it's just fate, no right or wrong"
This is my first time knowing that
two people from different worlds
can be so different
Dad is a little different from
what Mom has told me
Mom never mentions that he is so casual,
and too easy-going
Maybe he has changed over the past ten years
I don't think I am anything like him
I sometimes doubt
if he really is my Dad
It seems that we are
a thousand steps away from each other
But if I take the first step forward
our distance will only have 999 steps left
On the bright side, ever since he moved in,
the house became more lively
You should put your towel back on, Miss
You may get a cold
I'm sorry
Hey, you!
Hey!
Hey!
According to Section 122 of Chapter 200
of the Laws of Hong Kong
Do you know what you just did?
You can be charged with
the crime of indecent assault
The maximum penalty upon conviction is ten years
I don't know
Who let you bring women back here?
Who?
Stop lying
I make myself very clear
You are not allowed to bring
any animals into this house
Have some respect,
don't say that
Walking around with no clothes on.
I don't see anything else but animals
Fine
I will go to the hotel next time,
I won't bring any more animals back
What time is it? Why are you still sleeping?
What do you want?
According to rule number five,
you must get a stable job
No fooling around
Have you got a job yet?
No
Then get your ass up now and go find one
Or I will kick you out
Okay
I am going now, happy?
Jesus
Shop owner,
how much is the second-hand VHS outside?
If you're interested,
I'll sell it to you for $300.
So expensive for an old machine?
Can I try?
George Foreman was 45 years old by then,
challenging 26 years old champion Michael Moorer
That's what we call "tough as old boots".
George Foreman retired for more than a decade,
became a community pastor
He came out of retirement for this fight
to raise funds for a children's school.
He is doing this wholeheartedly
What's the purpose of it?
In a fight, youth often prevails.
See, he can't even stand on his feet
with the jabs he took
You don't win with more punches
Keep your guard up
Keep your strength
Just one chance
You just need one chance to win
"Sir, would you like to join our membership?"
I am looking for your boss, Lam Fung Chaun
Chaun is not here. Please wait for a while
You come to be my sparring partner
without extra training?
Piece of crap!
- Come, take a break
- Come out now
Who wants to fight me?
$500
$1,000
Go home to your kids
Hey, bearded guy!
What's the fun in punching bags?
Come up and fight me
Let me fix your stance.
Pounds or US dollars?
Not wearing anything?
You may get hurt
Let's talk if you are still standing after round 1
Getting rusty
Are you okay?
You can take a break if you need,
I can see your feet shaking
Deep breath, find your rhythm
Take your time
Better than that crap just now
No need to take the fight to him
You don't have to fight it the hard way
Slip
Slide
Counter
Who is paying for him?
Not bad, are you a boxer?
What does it have to do with you?
I am Chow Yiu Shan, I am a boxing coach
Chow Yiu Shan? Never heard of that
I see potential in you
Let me train you
I can make you a champion
Sure, I'll call you if I'm interested
Start driving, thanks
He is almost an hour late. Is he coming?
Let's leave
We can't, we haven't paid rent for the studio
Just wait a little longer
He is not coming
Let's go
I told you to take Wun Sha Street
"That's over ten dollars more!
Are you messing with me?"
There's a traffic jam on that street
Jam? Do you have a say in Hong Kong?
Just my luck.
I'm generous to you, here
Sorry
Sorry, I'm a little late
Can you stop arguing for once?
But it's his bad
Thank you, uncle
You're welcome. It's my duty
Uncle is free now,
should we go back in and have another drink?
I'd like to hear what kind of music
you've been working on
Let's go
Hey
Your mom said you haven't been back for days
She asked me to have a chat with you
Come home with me
Did you tell her I am here?
It's the same every time
- Carrie
- Go away!
I told you not to give her money
You never listen to me
She rarely asks me for anything,
and it's not a large sum
I can't just ignore her
I try to discipline her, but you spoil her
How do you expect me to raise her like this?
You need to remember,
she lives with me now, not you
Don't be angry
Kids are like boxers
You need to teach and nurture them patiently
Chow Yiu Shan,
don't you play the doting father now
If you say another word,
I'll kick you out of this car right now
Okay, okay, I won't. It's my fault
I won't spoil her anymore
How have you been lately?
Working odd jobs here and there?
Getting by.
I work as a cutman, do whatever comes up
Making a living isn't a problem
How can you say it's not a problem?
I heard the last time you worked as a cutman,
you got into a dispute with the coach again
How the coach trains his boxers
is none of your business
Who's going to hire you after this?
Did that happen? I forgot
Look at your attitude
Your daughter is just like you
She takes more after you
I'm here. This is my stop
Hey
If you need anything, just let me know anytime
Give you back your trash
Hey, what's wrong with you
It's all broken
Whatever,
Fill in the form
What form? Application form?
Take off your clothes
I said, take off your clothes
Pose
What pose?
Put it back on
What for?
You want me to be a model?
You're replacing Cyrus the day after tomorrow
Fight what? A hot pot dinner?
You hurt Cyrus,
so you are fighting for him
Insane
Why should I fight?
I booked several tables that day
It's okay you don't fight,
pay for my loss!
What kind of contest is that?
You can't just replace a contestant that easily?
Finished?
Not yet
Okay, continue
Hello?
Speaking
I'm Fong Yuen's class teacher, my surname is Lam
Hello, Mr Fong
Ms Lam, my surname is Cheung
I'm sorry, Mr Cheung.
I forgot that Fong Yuen
takes his mother's surname
What's the urgent matter?
Mr Cheung, you smoke, right?
You smoke Marlboro Reds
Schools are so strict these days
They need to know what brand of
cigarettes the parents smoke?
This pack was found in Fong Yuen's school bag
Sorry, I might have
accidentally dropped it in his bag
I didn't teach him to smoke
He doesn't even like people who smoke
Fong Yuen's grades and
conduct have always been excellent
The school is aware that he's going through
a significant change in his life right now
So the school is quite concerned about him
His mother passed away
It has been hard on him
But now he has me, his father.
He'll be fine in no time
Everything will be back to normal
Fong Yuen's grades have slipped
Especially in Mathematics,
it's dropped significantly
Studying is all about getting a job in the future
He already earns a considerable income
from his writing
He doesn't need to study so hard
Mr Cheung, I doubt Fong Yuen's mother
would have taught him that
That's the problem.
Spare the rod, spoil the child
Ms Lam, there's no need to worry
If that's all, I'll be going now
Can I have this pack of cigarettes back?
A hundred-dollar pack, and I've only smoked two
Thank you
Fong Yuen, go get the ball
Kid, you got a death wish?
Do they bully you often?
Are you scared?
If you're scared, they'll bully you for life
They think I'm a freak
People reject those who are different from them
So, they're the ones who are afraid of me
Not me being afraid of them
Nonsense
If you weren't afraid, you wouldn't back down
Let me teach you a couple of moves to
teach them a lesson next time
Violence doesn't solve anything
Kobu Takashi, representing Nokawa Boxing gym,
23 years old
He became a professional boxer for four years
He remains undefeated with a record
of 8 wins and 2 draws
His aggressive fighting style has
knocked out many strong opponents.
His aggressive fighting style has
knocked out many strong opponents.
- Touch hands, and return to your corner
- He is the fastest-rising star in Japan right now
- Touch hands, and return to your corner
- He is the fastest-rising star in Japan right now
As for HK, Cheung Lek from
Fu Chun Boxing gym is the boxer tonight
He is 34 years old
According to the records,
this is his first professional fight in Hong Kong
That means, he has no wins
Rumour said he was replacing an injured boxer
Rumour said he was replacing an injured boxer
It seems that he is no match for Kobu
The bout is divided into four rounds
Let's wait and see if Cheung Lek can surprise us
Be smart, finish all four rounds
You don't have to win, just don't get knocked out!
Okay?
The bout starts with
both boxers playing carefully,
trying to ascertain the strength of the opponent
Why does your boxer keep running away?
He's just testing
Two minutes after the bout starts,
Cheung Lek mainly jumps and escapes,
sometimes clinching, quite pessimistic
I got an expensive ticket
Hold on, don't let down your guard
The first round has just finished
Two boxers rarely touched each other
My guess is Kubo is leading with more points
That's right
Yes, that's right. Hang in there
That's right
Wow, working as a commentator for that many years,
this is my first time seeing someone
vomit just after the first round
Let's go buy a drink
Clean that up now
Box
Kubo starts his attack this round,
very aggressive attack from the start
Lek keeps getting hit
Go clinch him, don't give him space
Yes, don't let go
Back...
Back...
Kubo's attack didn't stop
His hooks are powerful. Cheung Lek got hit
Cheung Lek was finally knocked down,
after receiving the hook from Kubo
Get up! You find gold on the canvas?
Get up!
One...
Two...
Three...
You've won five amateur competitions in 2002
You've won the Golden Gloves Boxing Award in 2008
and earn the title "Golden Boy"
Four...
Five...
Hey!
What are you doing?
What is this?
Kubo has been rude to Cheung Lek
- I'm warning
- You that you must receive a penalty
Step back
Step back
Box
Back
It's a foul, come on
Break
Catch your breath
He's too arrogant, don't let him get away!
Move more, punch more
Fight him!
Understand?
Stay Strong
Right from the start,
two boxers are both throwing punches
as if their lives depended on it
They are not stopping
Go!
Yes!
Beat him!
Clinch him, don't let go
Yes, attack!
End him!
That's right
Yes, that's it
Cheung Lek got hit multiple times
but has yet to fall
That may be the unbeatable spirit of Hong Kong
You can say that!
But he will still lose, due to the lost points
Why is he standing?
Listen, calm down
All you need to do is take it to him now
Punch first, don't follow his rhythm.
Trust me
That's how you should do it! Fight!
Fight? Are you telling him to commit suicide?
- You...
- Are you trying to kill him?
You what? Get lost!
Got hit enough?
You're taller than him,
and your hands are longer than his
Don't get close, wait for him
Move back and lean on him, understand?
Move back and lean on him!
You're just a little rusty
You're going to win
Go!
Your boxer is a little different this round,
maybe he can win
Hit him
Wait for the chance
One...
Two...
Three...
Four...
Five...
Six...
Seven...
Eight...
Nine...
Ten...
Yeah!
Cheung Lek knocked Kubo out with
one punch unexpectedly!
A knockout blow!
The 34-year-old Cheung Lek
stood till the last moment.
He finally knocked out his
11-year-younger opponent!
Great job!
Good fight!
Did you know?

We're gonna be famous this time
Hold the emblem higher up
Thank you, please finish the last shot
Our boxer needs to rest. Thank you
Take one more photo...

- Okay
- Thank you...
- We'll do it later
- Let's go out and take some more photos
- Okay
Your tail phalanx may have broken
But it's fine, not a big deal
Soak it in the ice for a while,
and you'll feel better
I wanna take a shower
Okay
Is it legal to smoke indoors?
Cheers! It's a great day today
Cheers!
Come on
With a face like this,
I shouldn't be having a midnight snack, right?
It's alright,
you should eat a little to gain some strength
Your face scares off people
not because of the bleeding
as foul-mouthed as you are
I don't care
Start eating...
Let's eat
Thanks
Your son is such a good boy
What's your name? How old are you?
My name is Fong Yuen, and I am 10
Fong Yuen, here
I am Chow Yiu Shan
Shan as in hill?
Then I will call you Uncle Hill
Uncle Hill
This is the first time
I got this nickname, not bad
Thanks for your help just now, Uncle Hill
It's okay, I wanna help
But if you keep talking back to the coach,
you'll lose your job
I'll quit if they wanna fire me
Cool
Give me a chance, let me be your coach
I will... no
How about we work together to make you a champion?
I'm 34 years old. Isn't this fight enough?
George Foreman fought that match when he was 45
You're just in your thirties
I, on the other hand, think you may be too young
Nah
I may not be that lucky next time
"You feel scared because you want to do it;
If you don't want to do it,
you won't feel anything"
Why do you speak like an old man?
So funny
This is the first time
I've received such a compliment
My son is an author, smart, right?
An author?
You have my respect
So listen to the author, do it
You don't enjoy boxing in the ring?
Of course, you can refuse it
But if you don't,
then you'd better be ready tomorrow...
And find a proper security job
or a dishwasher job
Your voice gives me a headache
You let Kubo hit you in the head,
"now you're blaming me?"
What do you know about boxing?
Be careful of your own head
So you wanna hit me now?
- Hit me!
- I'm gonna hit you!
- Are you scared?
- I'm not gonna hit you
"Sharpen the pencil, and it reveals its true,
sharp nature
It's a wonderful thing."
Okay
Doesn't matter whether it's a pencil or a utensil
Let's get the golden belt together
Great!
Yeah, cheers
Cheers!
Morning Dad
This egg is for your bruises, not for eating
Uncle Hill and I are on the roof
Fix this
You'll need both hands for your next match
Start with one hand first
Straight arms
That's right, slowly
Slowly, yes
What are you guys doing in the morning?
Morning. Still spitting blood?
No, but there is blood in the urine
That's okay, you'll be fine in two days
Straight punch
This is hard, Uncle Hill
This is a Double-End Bag for you
to train your rhythm
Think in your mind...
Try
You can
I don't get what the fun is in boxing,
too much bleeding
That is precisely the fun part
Boxing is not just about the techniques
It also tests your will
Your strongest opponent is not your competitors,
it's yourself
To win yourself, can you imagine how hard that is?
Get it?
I don't, but this sounds meaningful
Give me some time to think about it
Of course, take your time
But don't stop, okay?
Don't smoke too much, dear
It'll affect your vocal cords
How did you know this place?
I am your Dad,
a father can always sniff his daughter out
By the way, your singing is really beautiful
Do you know music?
Don't pretend that you understand
The more I listen, the more I understand
I heard that you guys are having a show soon
If it's not too troublesome,
can you save me a ticket?
So I can learn more
Carrie,
I remember today is your birthday
Happy Birthday
I bought this for you,
take this back with you.
You can bring it back
and share it with your friends. Here
I said I don't want it
That's okay
Dad saw many bakeries on my way here,
Dad can go get another one
Stop saying that you are my Dad!
Which part of you looks like my Dad?
But I really am your Dad...
Is being a Dad anything like you?
Do dads know nothing about their daughters?
Who told you today is my birthday?
My birthday is tomorrow
And I've hated strawberries
my entire life!
I'm sorry
Dad is getting old,
keep forgetting things
You're not forgetting things,
You just assumed I knew nothing all along
You and Mom got divorced
because she is having someone outside
No, is Dad...
I was ten at that time,
I was not two
You think that makes you a great Dad?
I know,
You think I would be better off staying with Mom
But have you ever asked me once?
Why would you think I'll be happier with her?
But the court gave you to...
Stop making excuses, okay?
If you ever cared for me,
you would have taken me with you
Not leaving me alone
with that complicated woman
for ten whole years!
"Why have a parent conference again?"
Mr Cheung
Fong Yuen hit his classmates at recess
They are not in the same weight category
Are you mistaken?
It should be my son who got hit
Mistaken?
See for yourself
My son was almost disfigured
You again? Fat boy
You must have bullied my son first
Mr Cheung, it's Fong Yuen
who hit Tsui Tsz Tung this time
Mr Cheung, it's Fong Yuen
who hit Tsui Tsz Tung this time
Did you see it?
I've looked into this
Tsui Tsz Tung took the love letter
Fong Yuen wrote for a girl
and made fun of him, so...
He asked for it
You reap what you sow
Hey, are you insane?
Your son hits someone.
How could you teach your son like this?
Ma'am
"Perhaps you should start asking yourself,
'What kind of Mom are you?"
Teaching your son to be a bully
Even without my son,
someone would have done this eventually
What did you say?
How could you say that?
Please calm down
Tsui Tsz Tung has done something wrong,
but Fong Yuen has a bigger problem:
hitting a classmate
He broke a severe school rule
Schools must handle this impartially
What do you mean?
According to school rules,
he must receive a serious demerit
But this will affect my son's school records,
no way
Look, it's a common thing for kids to fight
Regardless of who started it,
let's shake it off
and pretend nothing had happened
Of course not
Miss Lam, don't waste our time
Let's go find the headmaster now
At least give him a serious demerit
Or better yet, kick him out of this school
Ma'am, see
You wouldn't be happy if someone laughed at you
while you're having sex
with your husband, right?
Watch your mouth!
Okay, stop pointing at me
You wanna see the headmaster, right?
Then I'm gonna find the school supervisor,
the director and the press,
making this a bigger fuss
and we are not afraid
Did you see this, Miss Lam?
Both of them are behaving like this
No room for negotiation?
No! Move!
How about this? Mr Cheung, can you ask Fong Yuen
to say sorry to Tsui first,
and we'll see how it goes
Then we decide what
punishment he would receive, okay?
Miss Lam, that's more like it
The deal is good, what do you think?
I fought for you,
from two years to probation
and you still refused
"If you do anything without meaning it,
it's meaningless
Be brave and do what you really mean,
that is the real you"
You are the man
Thanks Dad
Thank what?
You are the first one who stands up for me,
besides Mom
We are father and son, that's what we do
Did you jab punch that fat boy?
Not with your arm, but swing with your waist
Please don't do it next time, it's dangerous
Let me see
See what?
That girl's photo
You like her that much, she must be pretty.
Could you show me?
No
No? You must have a photo of her
I'm your father. Stop being selfish
I said no
Fine, introduce her to me next time
Okay
Dad, I want an ice cream
Chan Ka Fai, Fong Lam Hoi
Don't you ever put your trash in my backpack again
Two ice creams, please
Sure, grab them yourself
Now pick up the trash from the floor
Hey, Lek
We're gonna be rich this time
An agency reached out to me
saying they want to make you a KOL
in the boxing world
What "L"? You mean the "L" in "Knocked-Out Loser"
Who cares what they call it
But you can earn thousands
by just taking a few photos
No way, really?
Yes way!
That's the outcome of that million-view video
from the last match
You don't need to know what it is,
just do it!
Don't do it! Shan will scold the crap out of you
Move!
Crap!
Go do your practice,
don't get in your boss's way!
Don't listen to him!
Jessica, Mr Chow has arrived
Hi, Chairman
Shan, haven't seen you for a long time
Yes, it is. Why are you here?
You should have come to find me
You are so busy
So what's the matter? Why did you call me?
We heard you're currently looking for sponsors
Why didn't you come to me?
Right, I should have
It didn't come up to me
Are you training a boxer named Cheung Lek?
You are pretty well informed
Of course, we saw the video on the internet too
The comments are great
People say he has the
unbeatable spirit of Hong Kong
Many likes
Yes indeed
We are sponsoring a competition,
The Chairman and I were thinking that perhaps
Cheung Lek should fight in one of the matches
That would be great!
No problem!
- Thank you!
- Great
Should we talk more at dinner tonight?
I'm sorry, I won't be able to make it tonight
Me too
What a coincidence
It's Mother's Day today,
and I will be eating with my daughter
Hip, hip, hurray
What are we cheering for?
We joined a competition
Really?
We'll be in the ring in three months
Your opponent is strong,
we need to have extra training starting now
No problem!
This is such great news.
Let's cheer three more times
Hip, hip, hurray
Let's go celebrate with a good meal
Don't you think about the meals,
not only the extra training,
but you also need to start eating healthy,
understand?
Then why are you buying all these burgers?
Because me and Fong Yuen,
we are going to celebrate Mother's Day together
This is your favourite double cheeseburger
Thank you, Uncle Hill
Today is Mother's Day? I didn't notice
Stop speaking, start running now
Ten loops! Now!
- Are you insane? How can I run in here
- Be Quick...
Is it good?
It's delicious
On previous Mother's Days,
Mom always took me to the park
You must have a reason for
bringing me here this time
When my daughter was little,
she really wanted me to bring her here to play
She said...
...that eating a hamburger while looking at
the sea tastes especially good
So you have a daughter
What's her name?
Carrie
How old is she?
20 years old
What does she do?
She loves being in a band
And she sings beautifully
Why don't we ask her to celebrate together?
I'd love to...
...but it's impossible
She's still mad at me
It makes no sense
No one stays angry at their parents forever
Because I haven't been a good father
I don't even know what she likes
And I always break my promises to her
I even got her birthday wrong
I'm such a failure as a dad
A dad is a dad
How can you define a successful or failed one?
Let me ask you
What makes a successful father?
Maybe... if she would listen to what I say
I've realised something recently
As long as you do your best in everything,
you'll like yourself more and more
and others will come to like you too
Okay
The doctor said it would take
another eight weeks for him to recover
Shan, how about this
I have a boxer in mainland China
He has great potential,
he already won the provincial championship
at the age of twenty
He just fired his coach
I'll pass him to you
That doesn't sound right
I can't give Lek up like this
Chairman, could you please give me some time?
I'll talk him out
I'll report to you later
Are you giving up on this competition yourself?
I promised Lek that I would be there with him
I can't work with others
just because of a minor problem
It's such an unethical thing, count me out
What if he can't fight anymore?
What are you gonna do by then?
I'll figure it out when it happens
I am not a person who plans ahead
This is how you've always been,
You never have a plan,
you never think about your own future
Okay...
I don't mind what you say,
this is out of the discussion
It's him and me, or nothing
Chow Yiu Shan, let's face the truth
Do you think you are still the same as before?
You're done!
The Chairman wouldn't have given you this
opportunity if it weren't for me
Quit being so naive, okay?
Who are you to teach me how to be a coach?
Have you ever been a coach?
Do you know how hard it is to stand back up
after an athlete hits rock bottom?
He believes in me,
and I go work with someone else?
Winning means nothing without him!
I can't do such an unethical thing
Can anything be worse than this now?
Your bad temper scares off everyone
in this industry
Your bad temper scares off everyone
in this industry
That's who I am,
and it gets me here
So what?
Can you do one decent thing for your daughter?
I don't want her to look down on you
No matter how bad I am, I still have my principles
End of discussion!
Hey!
Found him?
He didn't pick up his phone
Keep calling!
Also available in banana flavour!
Wanna punch hard and be full of energy

I am a breathing human,
how can I not be fresher than a banana?
I am a breathing human,
how can I not be fresher than a banana?
Meal Break!
Mendoza, according to your records
You always KO your opponent
Are you confident you can knock out your opponent,
Law Keung, today?
I need three rounds to knock him out
He is not gonna wake up after
Easy work!
Cheung Lek, get ready
Why didn't you come to training today?
And you're not picking up your phone
I am streaming, I am busy
What?
Chaun found me an agent,
who is going to make me a KOL
I should spend my time talking to my fans
to keep my popularity
Are you done?
Go back to training if you have finished
Chaun will take me to meet a client later
I don't have time today
So you're giving boxing up to be a KOL?
How am I supposed to fight?
Count me out, I will box no more
What do you mean?
What's the point of training so hard
and getting all banged up?
For the money, of course
Now that I am a KOL,
I can earn thousands just by shooting commercials
Even the dumbest can choose
I am calling Chaun to refuse all the jobs for you
Don't cut off my financial resources
- Give it to me!
- Back off!
What are you guys doing?
Nothing
Nothing, go back to your room
Go!
I used to box
I can relate
The recovery will only take a few months
I will arrange another match for you
as soon as you recover
Are you deaf?
Stop acting like a girl
Did Jessica talk to you?
Who's Jessica?
Got to go, suit yourself
I'm not done with it yet,
we must make it clear today
Get out of my way!
- You can't leave like this
- Get out of my way!
Fine
You wanna be a KOL?
But remember...
You'll regret it
Why do you shower so late?
The patient's brain tumour has increased by 0.2cm,
and blocked the blood circulation inside the brain
That's the reason why he fainted
Why did the tumour grow?
Numerous uncertainties would cause this to happen
Numerous uncertainties would cause this to happen
So what should we do?
Should we remove the tumour immediately?
The tumour is very close to the artery
The risk of undergoing surgery is very high
What do you mean?
Many illnesses in the world
can't be healed with modern technology
As a patient's family member,
what you can do is very limited
We can only help the patient face it positively
Seriously, why are you so worried?
This was what you expected, wasn't it?
Once the tumour ruptures,
and your son dies
The three million will be all yours
Better than winning the lottery
Just kidding man
I wanna cheer you up
It's all because of my greed
If I don't get to know him, nothing will happen
He is just a child
The tumour could burst at any time
Tell me,
How does he get through such a long life?
Study hard from now on
Thank you, Uncle Beard
This is for you
Thank you, Uncle Beard
Good girl
Hong, don't eat too much durian
These are healthier
Thank you
You're welcome
Pi,
These are the tutorial fee
This is too much
No worry, buy some good food for your wife
Thanks
Why do you seem like
you're leaving your last words
You're not thinking of leaving, are you?
Bro, help me take care of my son
Are you out of your mind?
Even if my car breaks down,
I wouldn't just leave it on the street like that
this is your son we're talking about!
I don't have a brother like you
Dad got a job as a sailor
I will go to Paraguay first, then Panama
And Paris lastly
I can travel the world and
earn money at the same time
Rest assured, I will become the captain,
sail the ship back and set sail for the world
Oh
What did you say you're gonna be again?
Sailor
I can understand
When Mom is sick,
I have the same thought, to be a sailor
Dad
Can you hold my hand again?
"What is death?
You won't understand if you've never been there.
Death is a mystery
People get scared when they are facing the unknown
This is human nature"
But I am not scared
You gave me courage
I promised Mom that
I would get along well with you
And I did
Dad, how about you?
Excuse me, Mr Cheung
It's time for Fong Yuen to take his medicine
I open it whenever I feel down
I'm giving this to you as a gift for your voyage
Nurse,
I finally understand the difference between
adults and children
What's the difference?
Adults always let children down
Silly, who taught you this?
Fong Yuen
I know you will miss Mom
Mom misses you too. But that's okay
Separation is only a physical distance
Mentally, Mom has never left
I'll always be with you
Adults' world is too complicated
When you grow up,
You'll encounter many problems
that cannot be solved
There will be people and things that
you don't want to face
But be brave and optimistic about it
All issues will surely be resolved
Courage is the most valuable spirit
Always remember this
Queenie promised me
She will look for your father after I pass away
Your father...
He promised me
he would win the golden belt for me
You need to give him some time,
to see his good side
I am sure you'll get to like him
One last reminder from Mom,
"Live the best you can
Strive to enrich others,
while perfecting yourself."
Keep it up, Fong Yuen
Are you really leaving?
Where's your humanity?
I don't believe it when George tells me...
He's so troublesome
Give this back to Fong Yuen for me
You are so cold-blooded
After spending all these time together,
you don't have feelings for him?
After spending all these time together,
you don't have feelings for him?
I thought you were smart,
but you're just an empty vessel
Three whole millions dollars!
Of course, I have to act and please him,
or I may lose all these money
But I gave up
- Let go!
- Stand there! Don't you go!
- Let go of me!
- But you are his father!
You...
After all this,
how could you think only about your own?
He is just a boy
He has already lost his mother
And now you have to leave too?
Then what's the difference between you and trash?
Say something!
Yes!
I am trash!
I've become trash ten years ago
No one is born a trash
I was impulsive back then
and I did something wrong
I admit my fault and received my punishment
Just one punch
I lost everything
But what did I do wrong this time?
What did I do wrong?
I cherish the son God gave me
Why take him now?
I'm terrified
I've faced many tough opponents in the ring before
I've never been afraid
"But this time I'm terrified"
I'd rather never get to know him
I was scared that I would watch him go, you know?
I don't...
You're just escaping
It's useless to escape
Did you know how much happier
Fong Yuen is after he met you
I haven't seen him smile like this for so long
You mean so much to him, do you know that
Can you show the courage that you have
when you stand in the ring?
- You are a boxer
- I am not a boxer!
I am not a dad! I am nothing!
I'm not qualified to be a father
I can't beat fate
If one person can't beat fate,
how about two?
Uncle Hill did what he promised
Three months later, Dad is back in the ring
In the ring, he can finally be himself
Come on...
Cheung Lek, your opponent this time is Mendoza,
nicknamed "Killing Tiger",
who once permanently disabled two opponents
The boxer who replaced you last time, Lo Keung
got knocked out in the third round
With such a strong opponent,
what is your strategy?
I think a nickname is just a way to call someone
If you like, you can call me "Zombie" too
Maybe in the ring,
the tiger will be bitten to death by the zombie
Man, you'd better give your son a kiss
cause I'm gonna Kill you on 19th July
What did you say?
- Come on
- Just ignore him
Are you nervous?
No
You?
Not really
Do you remember what I told you?
You told me a lot of things
Next up is tonight's BBE belt match
The first to appear is the 34-year-old boxer,
with six wins, zero losses, three knockouts
And the one
with the unbeatable spirit of Hong Kong,
Cheung Lek
Cheung Lek's previous bitter battle
with Kubo Takashi
How wonderful and tragic the win was
Since that match,
netizens nicknamed him "Zombie"
for his incredible endurance
This time, his opponent is much stronger
How will Cheung Lek fight this time
Let's wait and see
The next to appear is the 26-year-old boxer,
with eighteen wins, one loss and ten knockouts,
Three of them were beaten to permanently disabled
This is the "Killing Tiger", Mendoza
with his powerful right hooks
No matter experience, age or strength,
Mendoza is better than Cheung Lek
At the pre-match press conference
Mendoza once threatened
to knock down Lek within two rounds
See if he can keep his word
You had your instructions in the dressing room
Obey my commands at all times; any questions?
Nah!
You ready, old man?
I'm gonna Kill you in front of your son
You should've been a boss...
Let's go!
This man can only brag, ignore him
Stick to the game plan
Make sure he knows this ring belongs to you
this ring belongs to you
The bout officially begins
It was estimated that Lek will
adopt a defensive stance at the beginning
But surprisingly,
Lek is the one who takes the initiative
Control him..
Well, Mendoza starts to fight back
Mendoza's left hook was
famous for its speed and weight
A right hook has already
split open the skin above Lek's eye
Box
- Yeah! That's it! Come on!
- Yes! Keep moving!
- Hang on...
- Hang in there...
Stop
Is his punch heavy?
Fucking heavy
Can you hold it?
I can
The punch won't stay heavy forever
It'll be getting lighter and lighter,
you understand?
That's all he can do, follow the deployment
You can do it
Got it
Box
The second round starts with
Lek is changing his strategy,
letting Mendoza get closer
Seems like he wants to fight a war of attrition
with his opponent
Mendoza lives up to the name "Killing Tiger",
Mendoza lives up to the name "Killing Tiger",
after a round of sudden attack,
he gained the upper hand
Did he really plan to knock Lek down
in the second round?
- Mendoza looks very confident
- Hang on
Working as a commentator for that many years,
I've never seen someone
despise his opponent like this
Although Lek was hit by Mendoza many times,
but none of it was a big punch either
Yes!
Yeah!
Stop
One...
Two...
Three...
Four...
Five...
Six...
Seven...
Eight...
Box
Stop
You fucking dick
Feeling good?
Yea
You attack him by surprise,
of course that feels good
But how much longer can you take his punch?
You can do it, you must
Have faith in yourself
The second round is over
Unexpectedly, Mendoza failed to knock out Lek,
Lek knocked him down instead
What the fuck are you doing?
You should have finished him
in the first two rounds
Stop playing! Finish!
Finish Him
Hang on
Are you in pain?
Yes
It's good that it hurts.
If it didn't, you wouldn't be human.
But so is he
He feels more painful than you, you know?
He is not on your level
You're gonna kill him in the next round
Mendoza is getting nervous
He is really determined to end Lek in this round
But Lek stay strong
Their score is tight
Mendoza got hit a lot, too
- That's what I am talking about
- Good job
Stop!
- To corner
- Lek got beaten so badly,
- To corner
- Lek got beaten so badly,
- Your boxer isn't doing so well
- that he even got the position of his corner wrong
You know shit
How many more rounds can Lek endure
if he keeps fighting like this?
Lek...
Box
Twelve minutes
Twelve more minutes and you could win
Your son is watching you
The whole world is looking at you
Can you hang on to it?
Yes
Louder!
Yes!
I am running out of breath
Hit him
Yeah
Stop! Back to your corner!
Lek has made it this far
only to take another right hook from Mendoza
Get up!
Lek, get up!
Get up!
"Sharpen the pencil,
and it reveals its true, sharp nature
It's a wonderful thing."
A pencil is a pencil. Whatever it is,
let's get that golden belt together!
Your Dad promised to win the golden belt for me
Your Dad promised to win the golden belt for me
I finally know the difference
between adults and children
That adults always let children down
Yeah!
Yeah!
Zombie really is unbeatable!
Fuck!
Still okay?
If not, I will hoist the white flag
Your life matters more,
we still have many opportunities
Shan
Adults should not disappoint children
I don't wanna let my son down
Fighting in the ring is just like one's life
Whoever has a stronger
will can endure till the end.
At this stage of the game,
it is no longer about skills
It's not about physical strength,
it's all about will
Stop wasting time
One...
Two...
Three...
Four...
Five...
Six...
Seven...
Eight...
Nine...
Ten...
Yeah!
Cheung Lek stood till the last minute
and won the match!
Cheung Lek stood till the last minute
and won the match!
At the age of 34,
Cheung Lek creates miracles again
He is the final champion
Don't cry. Dad made it
You have to beat this tumor too,
you understand?
Lek...
Dad
I've been thinking for quite some time,
I think my most significant achievement is
having such great parents
I'm so amazing, and so lucky
My Mom is an angel
My dad is the Golden Boy
Please welcome Fong Yuen
with warm applause
I first started writing to my troubled self
But this book,
I write this for my beloved father
Before this book club starts
Please open the last page
and take out your "heart"
I want to cheer for my Dad
Hope he can win the game
and also win for himself
