You think you can bribe Locksmith Chin and ask him to give a false statement? If your classmate knows that but doesn’t stop it from happening, he’s breaking the law knowingly. It’s a bigger mistake. Kam puts all the stakes on me. He’s counting on me.
You’ve got someone you want to protect. I’ve got mine too. You’ve kept it to yourself for so many years. You felt that you owed Wing-tung’s family. Now you can let go of it. I’ve filed a claim already to sue Hanfa Group’s branch company in Hong Kong for breach of contract.
I’m confident that I can KO them in one to two hearings. Basically, the plaintiff breached the contract first. Summing up the facts above, I hereby on behalf of Hanfa Group’s branch company in Hong Kong counterclaim the plaintiff for HK$5.3 million as damages for its loss. Your Honor, that’s my submission.
Your Honor, I must clarify that my client Miss Coco greatly values every job and client. Within half a year after she had signed the contract, she produced and uploaded 10 video clips for 3 new products of Snow of Hanfa, namely, Base Solution, Upgraded Firming Mask, and Peptide Essential Eye Cream.
For each of the products, she broadcast live 3 to 5 times a week to promote it. It exceeded what’s required in the contract. Bundle B pages 11 to 33 listed clearly all the records and the relevant dates. My client did receive a new product last month from Hanfa Group’s Hong Kong branch company.
It’s a men’s health series they have developed named Long-lasting Oyster Essence. The name of the product contains the words oyster and long-lasting. What will people associate it with? Aphrodisiac. I’m a man. Yet I feel embarrassed to say that. Objection, Your Honor. The Plaintiff’s lawyer has made an unreasonable and vulgar deduction.
My apology, Your Honor. I didn’t mean to say anything offensive. I only repeated what’s on my client’s mind when she received that product. Objection overruled. My client called Hanfa Group’s Hong Kong branch company and asked why was she suddenly asked to promote men’s products? The reply was “we don’t know”.
Then she directly called and sent email messages to Mr. Tung Sai-yue Leo of the Korean head office. But she’s never received any reply. Likewise, Bundle B pages 44 to 48 showed an online survey that I instructed a market research company to carry out on my client’s behalf.
Out of the 500 questionnaires, 400 were completed by women and 100 by men. 92% of them were of the view that once the name Hanfa Group was mentioned, they would be reminded of the brand Snow of Hanfa. 96% of the interviewees thought that Hanfa Group only sold beauty products for women.
The result of the questionnaire indicated clearly that most people have identified Hanfa Group with Snow of Hanfa. Your Honor, this lawsuit isn’t as simple as what a primary student can tell who’s at fault as the defence lawyer alleged. [tearing off notepaper sound] Hanfa Group signed a one-year employment contract with my client. It stated that she would promote new products on her channel. The result of the questionnaire shows that any reasonable man would know she promotes beauty products for women. It isn’t stated expressly in the contract. But I’m sure both parties
Understand and acknowledge that this is an implied term of the contract. My client has worked laboriously for years to build her current image… My client didn’t breach the contract intentionally. She just couldn’t perform her part. She didn’t want to destroy the image she’d built over the years. There’s a Privy Council case in 1978 in the UK. BP Refinery (Westernport) Pty Limited and President, Councillors and Ratepayers of the Shire of Hastings.
It explains under what circumstances implied terms are applicable. In 2001, the Court of Final Appeal accepted those findings too in the appeal of Kensland Realty Limited and Whale View Investment Limited and Another. After considering the relevant testimonies and evidence, I find the defendant in breach of the employment contract between the parties.
It failed to pay the monthly salary without reasonable grounds and terminated the contract unilaterally. I order the defendant to pay damages to the plaintiff. [rousing music playing] Thank you so much… Thank you. Thank you. Let’s think about how to celebrate, OK? Check out the group. Yau-ka has lots of ideas.
It’s good that someone has decided. Divorced middle-aged woman and an erotic star who took nude photos before. I fell for such a woman? I must be blind back then. Sue me. You worry that your man doesn’t get enough jobs? You fall for such a person?
Is a cheap person brainless or a brainless person cheap? I’m the cleverest having chosen Will. He’s got visions. He counts on himself. He isn’t like you who relies on your family only. Go home. Be careful. OK…you too. You sponge off your parents. This is her fault. She said she’s well prepared and confident.
What happened in the end? Before the trial commenced, I tried to suggest a new strategy. But you… You talk back? What…new… Shut up. You call yourself ace of Miu Shui Lai? Now I know how you get the nickname Loser. How did you manage to graduate? I bet you didn’t.
I’m No News Left Behind’s reporter Tin Hong-nam. Master Hei, your client accused you that way just now. It seems that you didn’t graduate from university, right? What are you talking about? I’ll sue you for defamation. If there’s concrete evidence, it won’t constitute defamation then.
Solicitor Lo Siu-hei, also known as Master Hei in the legal profession, claims that he graduated from the law school of Camkirk University in the UK in 1998. But the school emailed me earlier and said your name wasn’t on the list of graduates of that year.
I don’t want to waste my time with you guys… Whoa…how did you get qualified to practice? When you were elected a director of the Solicitors Association, a reporter asked for your view on Reform AA1996. You said you wanted the interview to feel easier by talking more about your personal experiences.
In the end, you didn’t answer that question. What’s the problem about that? That’s the problem. First, you don’t know what AA1996 means. Besides, one of the exam questions in the year you passed your PCLL was about AA1996. He’s at a loss… It’s impossible for a law student
To be ignorant of the Arbitration Act 1996 in England. You kept saying that you’re best at company law and commercial law. It’s a great chance for you to show off how awesome you were. Given your character, how would you not brag about it? That’s why I asked Hong-nam to check your background.
I found something once I dug around. Adviser Kam is really awesome. Don’t try to frame me… We allow you time to explain it now. Otherwise, I’ll hand over this to the Solicitors Association directly. You guys are crazy…Get out of my way… Dad… [imposing music playing] Renowned lawyer with false credentials.
Number one swindler in the legal profession. Cool. It’s said in the news that the Solicitors Association strongly condemns him. A meeting will be held to discuss cancelling his practicing certificate. There’s no need for discussion. He isn’t qualified at all. That guy Hong-nam has done a nice job.
Kam’s smart. Once Master Hei got elected as a director, he immediately asked Hong-nam to check. But Hong-nam was late in handing in the results. Better late than never. You’re right. Master Hei didn’t make any mistake in all these years. He’s unbelievable. How often did he conduct a case in person? You’re right.
This time Loser has lost. Back then you went to jail for two years because of him though you’re innocent. Heaven has avenged you at last. Me too…Master Hei stole my position of director in the Solicitors Association. We two got our revenge at the same time. It’s too easy for him.
He’s no longer a lawyer. He’s lost his position too in Miu Shui Lai. It’s total loss for him. Don’t keep talking. Let’s have a toast…Come on… Cheers… Don’t drink so fast. It’s OK. You won today. You should celebrate it. Thank you.
You don’t need to thank me. I decided according to the law only. You should thank Will. He did a nice job. Wow, the conviction judge complimented me… You do deserve the compliment…thank you. Don’t just say it. Put it in action… OK… [laughter] I can’t put up with this…
You two mustn’t model on them. I can’t put up with it either. I’ll throw you out. Don’t worry. I’m not that cheesy. But I’ve got a three-year plan. Three years? A woman won’t stay youthful for long. You want Hazel to wait 3 years? You agree to wait?
No…my three-year plan is to get two kids in three years. Wow… I want to carry it out as soon as possible. But if you don’t want to do that, then… I want to do that…I do… I thought you really wanted me to wait 3 years… My bad. I failed to say it clearly.
Never mind. It’s OK that you’ve said it clearly now. You guys keep flirting sweetly… You don’t need to eat? You aren’t hungry? OK, we’ll eat… Let’s eat…I’m so hungry…Hurry… What do we have? What’s the matter? Walk faster, Yau-ka… Over here… Wow, there’s so much food… OK… Come on… [desolate music playing]
Yau-ka, why aren’t you eating? She dips everything in chili sauce… I’ll get it for you. You’re so troublesome… I’m not eating. I’ll go home. What’s the matter? Are you OK? You’re Tin Yau-M again? Yes, never mind me… Look at her…Go see a doctor… Hey, where’s she going?
She said she got menstrual pain. She didn’t want to eat. OK. Kam wants us to remain friends for life without change. Drink a cup of warm water if it hurts. Drink a cup of red bean and pearl barley water when you get up. Eat the imperatae and red bean porridge. It’s good for replenishing your blood. Good. Excuse me… Yes, how can I help? Is this USB rechargeable thermal bear sold out?
Yes, it’s sold out. Is this one for sale? I’m sorry. It isn’t. It’s for display. This bear is super popular. Everyone likes it. I heard that it’s very practical too. During a girl’s period, she can hug it and the warmth will provide relief. Wow, you’re a considerate man. When will you re-stock?
We don’t know yet. You may place an order now. Once we re-stock, we’ll inform you immediately. But you may need to wait for a bit. OK…I’ll wait…I’ve waited for so long. Never mind waiting a bit… This bottle of wine is from Martin’s winery. Try it. It’s quite good.
When you have free time later, fly to my winery with me. Then we’ll go to Martin’s. OK. You said yes so readily? There will be girls. Will you hate it? To mingle with others, you need to do what they like. It’s impossible that you don’t know it, right?
If you keep this attitude, you can never level up. [phone ringing] What’s the matter? Mr. Wong, Master Hei insists on going up to see you. I do need to see TK for something very important. Let me go up there… You need to send him away properly.
Otherwise, he will come every day to harass you… Ada, let him come here… [pressing remote control] TK, I know I’m in trouble. You don’t want to see me. I know my status. I dare not bother you. Why did you come to see me then if you know your own status?
The Solicitors Association is investigating your case of false academic credentials. They will press charge against you anytime. You shouldn’t run around this way. No, please listen to me. Earlier the market was thriving. I put my money all-in on the stock Hercules Technology with the underground banker Brother Bully.
Recently it’s fallen below the issue price. You did margin trading too? Anyway, I was unlucky. Brother Bully cut and liquidated my margin account. He wanted me to make repayment immediately. TK, please lend me $30 million for now. I will repay you very soon. Ask your father-in-law to help you.
He’s cut me off. My wife wants to divorce me. I can’t help you either. I allowed you to come here this time as I wanted to tell you not to bother me again. TK, I’m begging you please. Brother Bully is brutal. If I fail to make repayment, he’ll kill me.
Time for video conference with Martin… TK…TK…Take your time for the conference. I’ll wait here. What? I won’t leave. I’ve got lots of things to discuss with your boss… [phone ringing] Yes, Brother Lok…Is that right? OK… All the videos are here. No rush. New ones are on the way. [intense music playing]
It appears that you’ve beefed up security recently. [intense music playing] OK, you don’t need to throw me out. I’ll leave. Excuse me. I must do a body search before you are allowed to leave. [fast music playing] [phone dialing] Hello, Miss Tin? Hello, Bobo. I’m calling to inform you that
TK has sent to me the title deeds for the flat you live in. Thank you so much. When will you come to pick them up? I’m sorry. I felt relieved that the case was over. So I’ve returned to Singapore with my son to visit his grandma. I will return next week.
OK, you pick them up when you return. Enjoy your trip. [intense music playing] Great…I will enjoy the food. What are you doing? Pretending to be an oppa? It’s apt to speak in Korean when you eat fried chicken. Is that the correct way to say it? Ask Wing-tung if you don’t believe me.
She’s leaving for Korea today… I’ll ask her later. You eat fried chicken because Wing-tung’s leaving? It’s because Alice can’t go. So I want her to feel happy by eating fried chicken. You want to go to Korea too? Yes. I wanted to go with Wing-tung to keep her company and enjoy the trip myself.
But dad didn’t allow me to go. He worried about your health. But I’ve got much better already. I want to pursue my dream too like Wing-tung does. Listen, godmother reminded me that when a person becomes old, she lacks the strength to pursue her dreams.
Now you still have the strength. You should pursue yours quickly. Otherwise, you will become old very soon. What? How will I grow old so soon? Right. But you must love while you can. Pursue your dreams while you can. What are your dreams? See if I can help you realize them?
You think you’re the genie in Aladdin’s magic lamp? Mind your own business. What are your dreams then? I won’t tell you. [gentle music playing] I’m exhausted…Shall we take a break? I’m not tired. You’re picking up so soon. Awesome. I did this when I was a little girl.
But I fell. Then dad didn’t allow me to do it anymore. I’m so happy today. I can’t believe your dream is doing roller skating. I’m not sure if this can be called my dream. When I was little, dad didn’t allow me to do anything. He thought I was frail.
Therefore, I wanted to try all kinds of novel and fun activities. From now on, I’ll join you for whatever novel and fun activities that you want to try. Shall we carry on then? Let’s do it. [gentle music playing] I went faster and faster just now like I was flying.
Let’s do it again next time. Next time? I really want to fly next time. Why don’t we do paragliding? And bungee jump too together. Wait a second…So exciting? What? Is it too exciting? You dare not do it? I will do it. Whatever you want to do.
I’ll do it with you even if I must risk my life. Look, my face looks more pointed in the photo. Now it looks fat and swollen, right? You look the same. Miss…hello. I noted from a distance that you looked like the pretty girl in the photo.
So it’s really you. I was wondering how I could reach you. Sir, why do you want to contact my girlfriend? My name is Chris. Our company will make a new movie later. It’s about enthusiastic young people. It’s very inspirational.
The director is looking for some new faces. I think you’re perfect for the role. I want to invite you to an audition in our company. Me? Acting? Can I? I’ve found lots of new talents. I think you’ve got great potential. Come to my company to meet with the producer and the director.
Just do it for fun. Give yourself a chance. You’ve got nothing to lose. Allow her to think about it. OK…I’ll get out of your hair then. Call me. You…want to try? I do…want to buy ice-cream ahead… Let’s go… These girls get the gut to come for a job interview despite their look.
All get big mouths and buck teeth. You’re still talking? Send more people to hand out business cards. Mr. Wong said clearly that the girls this time must be better than those last time. We made several movies after all. They may be small productions. But they made money for Mr. Wong.
Now it’s like we are scouting girls for the rich guys. All those clients are loaded. Mr. Wong said expressly that we must serve them well. OK, I’ll send more people tomorrow to hand out business cards on the street. See if we can find some pretty internet celebrities. Good.
You’re lucky. You said you wanted to try lots of things. Then you got a chance to audition for a movie. You think I’ve got the potential to appear in movies? Honestly, I don’t know. But people say you will play different roles as an actress.
It’s like you’ve lived different lives. It suits you as you want to try everything. I think so too…I was sick back then. I often worried that I would die very soon. I complained that I hadn’t tried lots of things. Don’t keep thinking. Go for the audition. Just try it.
Perhaps the producer and the director think you aren’t capable after meeting you. So you belittle me? I’m trying to encourage you only. You’re spotted by a scout? Is it so hard to believe? No, I envy you only. You want to be spotted by a scout too? Of course. I’m good at kung fu.
I want so much to appear in a kung fu movie to show people how skillful I am. There’s the so-called New Kung Fu Stars Selection organized by a TV station. You can take part in it. Good idea… Wait…You need to be careful.
They asked you to go for an audition. Will they scam you for money and sex? Owing to time constraints, I’ve already checked their background. This Chill Star Entertainment did make several movies before. It’s also worked with some major brands. It should be OK.
OK. Tony, don’t tell anyone about it. My dad doesn’t know it. This isn’t a secret. It’s fine if I can pull it off. But it will be so embarrassing if I fail. I agree. Don’t worry. I root for you. I’ll go with you on the day of the audition to cheer for you.
You’re so kind? You want to grab the opportunity to get selected, right? I’ll go with you too. I can check the company out incidentally. I’ll check if they’re playing tricks. [relaxed music playing] [elevator arrival sound] How come the button doesn’t respond? We’re going to the 20th floor.
OK…The button for the 20th floor responded immediately. But the one for the 21st floor doesn’t at all. I guess you need to tap a card to turn it on. When the entire floor of the penthouse is private property, it’s usually like that. The security is so tight. What kind of place is it?
[relaxed music playing] Excuse me, Chris asked me to come for an audition. This way please… Hello…Alice. You’re punctual. Let me introduce. This is Sister Ada. She’s in charge of artist management. Hello, Sister Ada. Many people are here for casting today. But I’m positive about you. Thank you. Follow me. You two wait here.
Please sit on the sofa… Please take a seat… Later you will take some photos in different poses and do an audition. But you need to change first. [vibrant music playing] Get change. Then fill out a form later. Is there a problem? I’m not used to wearing those outfits. You come for the audition
As you want to broaden your horizon and try different things. You won’t be used to it for sure. Be bold. The movie we’re working on is about enthusiastic young people. You make this pose not to show you’re being sexy. It’s necessary for the role. Stop worrying, OK? OK.
Oh, all of you must do this. Give me your phone. I’ll keep it for you. I don’t want it to affect the audition later. OK. Thank you. [intense music playing] [camera shutter sound] Broader movement…right… Be happy…Try to bend a bit forward… [intense music playing] More poses… Very good…Keep doing this… Good…Right…Be Happy…Right… Good…Good…
Hey, this one is good. I know what you like. It’s hard to find such an innocent girl. I don’t need your help if it’s so easy to find one. The peripheral girls last time acted so much like call girls. Don’t keep talking. Send her here quickly. I’m sorry. It still needs some time.
You mean I can only watch but can’t have fun? I often say you must feel happy and safe when having fun. If you don’t want trouble later, you can’t dispense with preparation. Anyway, I’ll mark this girl for you. You don’t need to wait too long.
Look, let’s talk about the contract first… I’ve changed some details. If you don’t have any questions after reading it, sign it. The project must start right away. This won’t be necessary. Send it to my company. Someone will read it. It he says it’s OK, I’ll deem it OK. I’ll sign it then.
Of course it’s OK with me…Cheers… Come on… Pang Choi takes the initiative to talk to us about cooperation. If this comes true, it’ll really be good for Sze & Lui. We’ll be able to pay off the debt we owe Diana quickly. Anyway, it’s all good. They usually instruct Miu Shui Lai.
How come they’ve chosen a small firm like ours? They don’t use one firm only. Remember they invite us sincerely this time. We didn’t tout for business. The more you care about it, the greater the chance of getting accidents. Stay cool. Yes, Mr. Pang… Mr. Pang… Mr. Miu… Please sit down… Come on…
Thank you. Please use some tea… Use some tea… Our time is precious. I’ll be express. Pang Choi plans to build a smart middle-class housing estate with 8,000 flats in total. From the Deed of Mutual Covenant to financing and sale of the flats,
I would like to ask Peter’s Miu Shui Lai and your Sze & Lui to handle all the relevant legal matters jointly. I look forward to our cooperation. I’m sure we’ll learn a lot. I believe both of you know my ex-son-in-law’s case, right? I’m now reorganizing the manpower in my firm.
I dare not be so greedy about this big project as I’m afraid of failing Pang Choi. Peter recommended your firm. I have faith in you too. I know in the case last time, we could reach a settlement all due to your help, Adviser Kam. Thank you so much. Don’t mention it.
The troublemaker behind the scenes in the case last time was TK. Recently he’s partnered with a trust fund baby Martin Yeung from Malaysia. I have a negative impression of them. Earlier this guy Martin Yeung was involved in a drug-facilitated rape case. It’s reported on C1. But in the end, nothing happened.
We all know what happened. He won’t be so lucky all his life. He will get in trouble sooner or later. Adam… What a coincidence? I want to talk to you. Pain relief patches ordered from Japan. Give them to Mrs. Yau. Her backbone hurts. She can use them.
I took her to an orthopedist already. She’s taking medication and receiving physiotherapy. She’s much better now. Never mind. Keep them just in case. I know you will move to Hilltop Lodge very soon. Nice place. Good for you. What do you want to ask me about?
I know TK has partnered with Martin Yeung recently. I want to remind you not to get too close with him. When I was a little boy, my mom didn’t allow me to play at the playground lest I’d hang out with bad guys. You take me for a kid now?
Sometimes when a person is too involved, he needs someone to remind him. Me too. If you notice something wrong about me, feel free to remind me. I know very well what I’m doing. I know very well too what I shouldn’t do. It’s fine if you say so. Good for you. [sad music playing]
[door knock] Hey, come in… Whoa… You just care about eating. No one followed you when you went out just now, right? No one. I was very careful. You should eat too. I eat such food every day. It’s yucky. You keep staring at the map. Will you really get money doing that?
Don’t worry. I didn’t lie to you. Master Hei, you’ve given me lots of advantages all along. Of course I believe you. But can you tell me a bit more what this big dealing is about? Look, this point on the GPS is a hard disk. There are some videos in it. What videos? Porn?
Some rich guys often go to TK’s joint to have sex with girls and use drugs. I believe it’s about those things. Hidden dirt? Cool… Once we get the hard disk, we can make TK pay whatever amount we want. Very soon he will become my personal ATM.
When I’ve made repayment to Brother Bully, do I still need to hide here? We can eat all kinds of nice food by then. Wait…the hard disk is so important. Is it so easy for you to grab it? TK is very meticulous when serving those rich guys. There’s no CCTV in that room.
But the security guards will search whoever goes in or out. So, I took off the tag on my car key and put it and the hard disk in a brown envelope that they were about to dispatch. The brown envelope has stayed in Myriad Commercial Centre for so long.
Why didn’t we figure out a way to get the hard disk back? This place is the office of Sze & Lui, Solicitors. There are CCTV cameras. Anyway, the brown envelope will go to TK’s ex-girlfriend. We can take action by then. Your dad and I have arrived. We’ll play mahjong with Diana.
When will you be here? I’m still picking a birthday gift for Diana. There are so many choices. I don’t know what I should pick. It’s nice to have a companion at such a moment. Then you two can discuss. You should come with me to pick the gift.
You know what I mean. Oh, remember to buy a pillow for me too. OK. Go play mahjong now. Win more money. OK, bye. Bye. Miss, how can I help you? Oh, I want such a pillow. We don’t have stock here. You need to pre-order. Please help me to pre-order then.
OK. The double mattress you looked at just now offers very strong support. If you like it, you could come with someone to try it together when you come to pick up the pillow. OK. Excuse me… Yes? I saw on your website this rechargeable bear. But it’s sold out. Do you have stock here?
I’m sorry. The head office said there’s a problem with the materials. It will no longer be manufactured. At first, we had the last one. But the customer who had paid a deposit earlier took it. He said his girlfriend would feel the most comfortable
Using it to warm her tummy when she got menstrual pain. Such a thoughtful man would make a nice husband, right? Right. I agree. Thank you so much. Hello, Kam. Where are you? In Central. What’s the matter? I’m in Central too… I couldn’t hail a ride or catch a cab.
Why don’t you come give me a ride to Diana’s birthday dinner? I can’t. I’m caught in traffic. I haven’t arrived at Central yet. I don’t care. I’m at Ice House Street right now. I’ll wait for you here. I’m driving. I can’t talk on the phone. [phone hanging up] He hung up on me?
At first, we had the last one. But the customer who had paid a deposit earlier took it. He said his girlfriend would feel the most comfortable using it to warm her tummy when she got menstrual pain. Such a thoughtful man would make a nice husband, right? [soft music playing] Why did you lie?
I’m caught red-handed. I can’t make any excuses, right? Answer my question. Is the bear for me? You like me? My script doesn’t run like this. What’s your script like? I planned to run you home after Diana’s birthday dinner.
Then I would take the bear out from the trunk and tell you I like you. Actually…I’ve liked you for a very long time. But the timing was never right. At first I thought we could remain friends for life. But then I kept thinking about it. I didn’t want that.
I want to become a couple with you. And then? The script is completely different now. I’ll do whatever you want me to. Give me a hug. In a public place? I don’t care…
