Such mixed signals
can affect our machines' reception.
So our machines are still so outdated?
Not really. Nowadays,
we don't even need bugs.
Pass me your cell phone.
Since we all carry a bug with us.
This is a GSM-intercept.
Enter the target's cell phone number,
and you can hear the target's every call.
Even target's cell phone it's power off.
As long as the battery is there,
Your number?
testing. 1...2...3...Can you hear?
Wow, that's very dangerous!
Not really.
Men are smarter than machines. Look...
Even the battery's taken out.
Hey, mark the time.
I need a cig. Do you have a light?
I'll join you.
I've to make another one.
Start Channel 100.
Turn off the phone first.
Why should I turn it off?
Do as I said.
Why didn't you take my call earlier?
I was busy.
You were with him?
None of your business.
What you doing after work tomorrow?
Someone will see us!
Swing by! I'll make you breakfast.
I told you they're an item. 100 bucks!
Isn't her boyfriend Tsui from
Violent Crime Unit?
He's shagging the Chief Inspector's woman.
You lost!
How trivial can you get?
Just for fun...
Fun? What's so funny?
Tell me!
What? You got something?
You are right! Look!
She's Elisha, the new secretary.
Joe, write it down.
A rich guy having
an affair with his secretary.
Do we really need to write it down?
Didn't you see her bra?
Her lingerie costs $3,000 plus.
Don't forget the FMwatch.
A junior sec with $7,000 a month.
I'm sure she's involved in the case.
Hey! Hey!
You bastards!
Good morning.
Good morning, sir!
Good morning.
Did you get anything?
Nothing.
Let's call it a day.
Good morning.
Sir.
All my life...the biggest apartment
I've ever lived in is only 700 square feet.
This bathroom is bigger than my room.
I need some time to adjust.
When Dad came to see the renovation,
he suggested using gold faucets.
I know you don't like that.
My dad is like that.
You give him an inch, he'll take a mile.
You have to voice out your objections.
the Police Commissioner's salary...
is $181,050 per month.
Our chief security officer's salary...
is $4.5M per year,
a bit higher than the Chief Executive
but without his residence.
There're over 30,000 cops in here...
but only one commissioner.
You earn only some $20,000 a month.
When can you ever be a commissioner?
Since that's the way it is,
why don't you resign next month.
I know you're kind, but I'm thinking...
You still don't get it. It's for my girl.
The wedding is next month.
You'd better resign next month then.
Let me have a smoke first.
Wait for me here.
We've known each other for so long.
You know I'm a serious guy.
Don't mess with me. I can't handle it.
Just come clean to Tsui.
I don't wanna sneak around like a thief!
Are you a man or not?
You...
Me what? Let me remind you.
You knew me first.
When he showed up, you just left!
After we're together, you reappeared.
Yes! I'm scared!
We all know who Tsui is.
Did you think about me? Did you?
Let's go.
The party isn't over yet.
Why do we have to come back here?
To get something.
What's so important?
Can't tell you.
I'll go then.
All right!
Just between us!
Give me your phone. Take out the battery.
It's confidential information.
Tomorrow, the company's stock will be $1.2.
Today is closed at 20 cents only.
Wow, I'll be rich!
Buy just a little. Don't blame me
if you can't sell them in time.
Being with you, I'm doomed already.
Let's go to the yacht.
Good, but let's eat something first.
Sure, I'll feed you in the yacht.
You bad boy! Talking naughty...
Max.
Yes.
Did you mark down what they said.
Yes, what about it?
I'm thinking...
Why don't we erase it?
I'm begging you.
I'm short of cash.
Why did those love birds come back?
See for yourself.
The party isn't over yet.
Why do we have to come back here?
To get something. What's so important?
Can't tell you. I'll go then...
All right! Just between us!
Let's go to the yacht.
Good, but let's eat something first.
Sure, I'll feed you in the yacht.
I don't want it. You're so hung...
Max, are you out of your mind?
Marking dirt like this!
Strike it out if you find it useless.
Bodhisattva, please protect me...
- The account is activated.
- Thanks.
- Good luck!
- I'll call you for dinner.
Gene.
Yeah?
It's done.
$200,000. All my savings.
You know what you're doing?
Mishandling evidence,
withholding vital information and...
perverting the court of justice.
Don't you know how serious it is?
Go back and change the data.
I'll work it out with Kelvin.
Chief...
there're tips everywhere.
Everybody will do the same.
It doesn't hurt anyone.
What a lame excuse!
Johnny...
Johnny...hear me out!
I took my son to medical check-up.
He'll be fine soon.
But not me... I have liver cancer.
The doc said I had one year to live...
Johnny, please...
I wanna leave cash for my family.
Let's talk outside.
Couldn't leave in time.
I've borrowed $5M to buy margin!
$5M?
Are you crazy?
Start trading!
"E&T's"
Wow! Look! It's on the rise!
Only $7M worth of trading.
I put down $5M. Of course it's rising.
So what does this mean?
Hello, OK, thanks.
What's going on?
Our average price is 27 cents a share.
What? It's not 20 cents?
You overpaid? Are you in the know?
I've put down all my savings. Sh*t!
If you buy $5M worth of shares and
the stock does not rise at all,
then it's totally worthless!
So what does that mean?
It's risen a few points,
- So what does that mean? You sure?
That's great!
Those dudes are heavily leveraged!
Boddhisatva says I should chase!
Great! Didn't I say we should chase?
Ask our team to push the price to 80 cents
before the end of the day,
let's see what kind of reaction we get.
Okay.
Charles.
Morning, Mr Ma.
Pork chop, sandwich and iced coffee, please.
Got it.
Thank you.
I heard the Arabs are in negotiation...
to take over E&T for $1.2.
Coal's been found in some wasteland...
- What's the deal?
Can we sell yet?
We've earned enough. Let's sell.
Not yet. Can't you see it's still rising?
We've earned $10M already!
You see!
We'll wait till it's risen to $1. OK?
You wait! I'm gonna sell!
No, Gene.
If we sell now, we get only
a few million each.
That's enough for me!
Look at the world we are in.
A few million is nothing.
Listen to Gene and sell!
Chief...
I asked you to sell! Did you hear?
Sell it!
What happened?
"Trading suspended"
"E&T's"
E&T's stock price...
fluctuated wildly today.
Securities and Futures Commission
found it irregular...
and ordered it to stop trading,
pending investigation.
E&T's spokesperson has denied...
all rumors of sale orders and other news.
Without the support of...
good news,
