Vigorous ambition for wealth and material possession plague thelives of many who step off the train from various provinces in China to the newly industrialized city of Shenzhen. Three characters in this story clearly illustrate this point.
[from the Tai Seng Catalog]
Two money-minded girls who migrate to Shenzhen in search of men with money. They are attracted to two brothers, both cops, neither rich.
One is a national kung-fu champion (and provides a few fairly good fight scenes) with a very bad temper, and the focus of his rage is Hongkies, who come to Shenzhen and steal local women with their money. The two girls work in bar, where they become concubines of a HK businessman. They later force this man to give them money, and plan to run away (with bad-tempered cop in tow), but
bad-tempered cop stuffs up the plan by taking out his anti-HK rage on the businessman, in a fair copy of Jason from Friday the 13th.
In the final scene, bad-temper and the elder girl (Farini) are on the run and living off the land. In one of the few tender moments of the film, he wakes up and can't see her.
Then he spots her and asks "What are you doing ?". "Pissing" she replies, and proceeds to do just that.
But the police are about to ambush them. Will the national champion make a final stand ?
