Kung Fu Dunk Page #2

---

you're expelled!

Hey, Hey!

Ah, I was just about to talk to you.

I've done my research...

What suits you most is...

What's wrong?

Can you take me to the club?

I want them to pay the price...

You think you're Bruce Lee?

Forget about the nonsense.

Let's do something grand!

I can't play football.

How about basketball?

Come on, throw it into that trashcan.

Come on, give it a try!

YES:

Playing basketball

is not just about winning.

If he plays basketball in order

to search for his birth parents,

isn't it more touching?

See, his audience have tears

in their eyes...

They cheer him throughout the match...

Won't it make the headlines?

Stop it

Abandoned by his parents,

he plays basketball

while searching for them...

It'll be a moving, sensational story.

Even if he's not winning,

the University will still

get lots of publicity.

Chancellor Zhou, look at him.

How innocent!

He's not only an obedient son,

but a role model for young people.

Because he's raised the athletic spirit

to a higher level.

He's showed us

the virtues of Chinese culture.

We all know

how important parents are to us:

Fang will keep playing basketball

until he finds his parents.

Let us welcome

Fang Shijie - the Basketball Orphan

who loves his parents so much

he'll never stop looking for them.

Fang Shijie

Do I have to dress like this?

You look cool, come on...

Read from the notes.

Thank you all for your support. Thank...

my dear Uncle Li,

and the Chancellor. I'll...

I hope... I can find my parents soon.

I'll work hard...

Wait a minute!

No one can join our team

without the Captain's permission.

Who is she?

That's the basketball team.

We do have this tradition.

Well, since there are

so many journalists here,

Iet Jie demonstrate...

come on, no problem,

Even the Chancellor has to observe

the traditions of the First University.

Whether Fang Shijie

can join the team depends on...

They still can't find him...

The Captain's name is Ding Wei,

As long as he can score one,

he'll be admitted...

It's still not certain whether

Fang Shijie can join the team...

Well, miss,

getting scared?

Hiding isn't a good idea.

Is any one answering?

Shall I ask Jie to shoot?

He scores each time

Here you are!

Someone is waiting for your permission

to join the team.

He's the Captain?

How is he going to play if he's drunk?

Here he is.

YA!

Shoot! Shoot!

Get back, please.

Sorry, get back, please.

Yes, please, get back.

YA!

Did you read the papers today?

A true life story of 'Oliver Twist'

Isn't it wonderful?

We're going to make a fortune!

Okay, that's it. Don't worry.

Okay, bye!

What's wrong?

What the hell! Such big coverage!

It's not right, look...

'Basketball Orphan Bullied by Captain'

Fantastic headline!

Very sensational! You don't like it?

Stop selling stories to journalists!

What do you know about it?

You're neither Yao Ming nor Liu Xiang.

They don't have to say anything but

they'll always be in the headlines!

But you're nobody.

You know you're nobody?

No one would write about you.

You'll never get any exposure.

Unless you can spice up the story.

They don't care about you!

It's a sensational headline.

A story to tell!

Ah, I see...

You're worried you'll be bullied

when others read the story?

Well, that's for sure,

because you're a genius.

People are always jealous of geniuses.

It doesn't matter.

As long as you're famous!

You can have anything when you're famous.

That's how things work.

Come on, go practice.

Come on, be good and go.

Captain,

I know you are annoyed.

It's fine if you want to beat me up,

I won't fight back.

Who said I wanted to beat you up?

There is a saying

amongst basketball players.

'He who controls the rebounds,

wins the match'

You can jump really high.

So you just do

one thing in the match -

rebound.

That's boring!

I'm good at shooting.

Never miss one.

Morning!

Why did you stop? Keep playing!

Wow, are you okay, brother?

Are you sure you're not sick?

It's too early to show up!

I've found a secret weapon.

What secret weapon?

Brother, your time has come!

We'll be the winners at the championship!

That's impossible.

Top 3?

Stop dreaming!

Then, top 8?

Possibly.

Possibly.

Come on, shoot!

Come on, shoot!

Cool!

Hello!

I'm Zhen Li,

the agent of the Basketball Orphan,

Fang Shijie.

I'd like to send some photos to you.

Can I have the address?

Okay, thank you.

Xiao Lan! Xiao Lan... please give us your autograph...

Can you write my name on it?

Can you take a picture with us?

I'm so excited!

Work hard, Xiao Lan...

Hey, this is Jie.

He's great at shooting hoops.

- Jie. - Lily

This is Xiao Lan.

This is Fang Shijie.

He got injured and just came back today.

Hello!

Lily's mentioned you to me.

She says you're very talented.

Really?

But the most important thing is

what you learn from the training.

Lily also says you lack basic training.

So you're saying you can beat him?

Try it, if you have the guts.

You know who the hero is? It's Jie!

Right?

Why are you clapping?

The journalists are here.

Stop clapping.

Did you get my point or not?

Do you know who the hero is?

You mean Jie?

Of course!

He's new.

He should be on the bench for a while.

On the damn bench?!

He's been waiting all day.

Come on.

What did she say?

She said she really wants to see you play.

I asked her to wait.

I warn you, there are only 5 minutes left.

If you don't let Jie play,

I'll call the police.

Put Jie on.

Hi, nice to meet you.

Oh! My God! Shoot! Shoot!

That's impossible. He never misses!

Oh... My... God.

Foul! Foul!

Referee, it's a foul!

Come on, try again, no problem.

Cool! Right?

Did you see it? Did you?

Hello?

This is Jie. Have you eaten yet?

Jie? It's so nice to talk to you!

Really?

I need to tell you something. There is a pervert.

He's been standing downstairs

for more than an hour.

A pervert?

I've called my brother.

- He should be here soon.

- Hello?

The battery is going dead. Hello?

Damn it! Run!

Hello?

Jie.

Where is the ball?

Captain, I've been practicing for ages,

can you teach me how to slamdunk?

Do you want to run before you can walk?

Take your time!

Is it really that difficult to dunk?

I know Lightness Kung Fu...

Hmm... so it can't be that difficult.

The starting line-up

of the First University:

Captain Ding Wei, Shooting Guard Zhang Gui

Center Yang Rong, Power Forward Xiao Lan.

And the popular 'Basketball Orphan'...

Never seen you before. Are you new?

Yeah, nice to meet you.

This game is cruel.

It's never nice to meet someone else.

There is only screaming and whining here.

They scream for me:

Oh! You're so cool!

And you whine:

Oh! I'm so inferior!

It's a cruel world.

It's Jump ball time!

Fang Shijie takes it

and passes to Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan dunks! Fantastic!

This match has attracted

mass media attention.

Fang's search for his parents

has become the latest hot topic.

Fang steals the ball

and passes to the Captain, Ding.
