Huge mosquitoes? Wait!

All right!

You must give this letter

to Ip Man. Thank you!

All right!

Thank you

Uncle Ip!

Mei Wai!

Please go in,

Ip Man's home

Dad!

Dad!

What have you

brought back?

It's Sis' new toy

Be careful!

It's very heavy!

What's taking him

so long to reply?

Hasn't he?

Honestly, did you

deliver it in person?

I did!

Are you sure?

Absolutely!

Keep this medicine

with you,

it's good for headache,

fever, diarrhea, everything

I appreciate it

You'll be on your own studying

in Hong Kong, Man!

Take good care of yourself

Yes!

So long, Brother Chung So

Remember not to waste

any time in Hong Kong

Neglect neither your studies

nor your martial arts training;

do not forget

our Master's advice

Don't get involved in fights,

don't think you're better than others

Martial arts learning - genuine

and authentic;

behavior- proper and discrete;

judgement - objective and rational.

Don't worry!

Good morning

Good morning

Good Morning, Reverend

Good morning

Good morning

Good Morning, Reverend

Good morning, class

Practice more at home,

understand?

Is Ip Man at home, please?

He's gone to Hong Kong.

May I know who's asking

for him, please?

It's nothing important.

Thank you.

Good morning,

Brother Chung So

Let's eat fried sticks

These fried sticks look

very interesting

You are all big eaters, double sticks

aren't enough to feed you.

So I made them triple

Let's eat!

Why are you people

so unhygienic?

You want to know why?

Come on!

Do you know now?

Let me help you

Don't bother!

There you are! How nice!

Chairman Lee

Godfather

Thanks for looking after me,

Mei Wai.

Here's a present for you.

How beautiful! Thank you

Tin Chi, you have given

tremendous help ever since

you joined the Jing Wu

Athletic Association

Don't mention it

Anyway, I have a present

for you, too

Thank you, Chairman Lee

These were selected

from my jade collection

They seem like a pair

Definitely, a pair,

like you two

I've never seen Chinese pigs

playing hockey before.

It's so funny!

Hey, you!

Mind your language.

My language?

It's none of your business

I heard you say Chinese pigs

Oh, no, no! I'm sorry,

I didn't mean Chinese pigs

I meant... Sick Man

of East Asia!

Come on, then!

I'll give you three minutes

No, two minutes

No, one minute

Good!

Just 45 seconds!

Take a seat

Relax

It's OK

Your Kung Fu is formidable

We call it Wing Chun

What's your friend's name?

He's wonderful

His name is...

Good morning, Ip Man!

Morning

Master Ip, morning

Say "Good morning" to him!

Morning!

Have I met them before?

Good morning, Ip Man

Not this one, I'm sure

Boss!

I'm not the boss here,

I'm the manager

How can I help?

I need some medicine

for a friend

What else would you

buy in a drug store, kid

Which is better to treat bruises,

powder or ointment?

What? He's injured?

What happened?

A fight? What else?

Who beat him?

I did

I thought he was your friend

That's how we became friends

Why did you beat him?

Boss, why don't you...

Why don't you

bring him here?

Here to receive treatment?

Treatment? Bring him here

so I can beat him, too.

Make sure he won't call us

'Chinese pigs' again

Where did you

learn about that?

From your friends.

You and your name are known

to everybody on this street now, Ip Man

You're popular kid.

So, you're studying Wing Chun?

Authentic Wing Chun.

The name was inherited from the school

taught by Master Leung Jan from Foshan

So you must be one of Chin's

(Nickname of Chan Wah Shun)

Disciples

Correct!

Authentic my foot.

So much so that you made me believe

you learned directly from Master Ng Mui

How long have you

studied it?

Finished the lower body strength

training yet?

What about

'targeted finger'?

You're in Wing Chun,

too, boss?

First, I told you

I'm not the boss;

I'm the manager here

Second, I am practicing

Wing Chun,

but don't know

if it's considered authentic

Do you want

to try it out?

Next time

I might be too busy

next time.

If you want to try me,

try me now

Better not,

if there is any injury...

Are you looking down on old folks

like me? Come on!

Mr Manager!

Hasn' t your master taught you that

when practicing with the others,

you reserve only the strength

applied, not the skill?

What, despise me?

I mean business then

Are you alright, kid?

I'm fine

Well, again!

Watch my medicine!

Be careful with the

Three-Prick Wine

Wait! You call this

Wing Chun?

Whatever comes from

my fist is Wing Chun

They are not Wing Chun

My Master said Wing Chun strategic

movements are 70% from the hands,

attacking an opponent's lower body

Your master wasn't wrong.

The traditional focus is

on the use of the hands

But that doesn't mean

it forbids changes.

Changes allow more flexibility

Movements can be adapted

in multiple ways,

such as leg movements in

a form of wrestling, and they all work

May I know your name, please?

I'm Leung Bik from Foshan.

People call me Sir Bik

Master Leung Jan

was my father

You're my senior!

So is my Wing Chun authentic?

You're funny

Come back the day

after tomorrow, kid

Come here the day

after tomorrow?

Don't you want lessons?

Of course I do.

But I can't afford

to pay you

Did I ask you to pay?

Customs inspection.

Open the crates, officers!

Hold it!

Inspection is not authorized.

The medicine was purchased

from the Japanese Chamber of

Commerce by the

British Embassy

Mr. Kitano said you can't open

this as it was purchased

from the Japanese Chamber of

Commerce by the British Embassy

I don't understand English

How dare a low-ranking

customs officer

display public contempt for the

Japanese business bureau

Should any damage be incurred,

who will be held responsible?

How dare a low-ranking

customs officer

like you display public contempt

for the Japanese business bureau

Should any damage be incurred,

who will be held responsible?

If smuggling is going on,

who will be held responsible, then?

Officers, open the crates!

Mr. Kitano said

you can't open this

Stop!

What do you think

you're doing?

Do you know who

this gentleman is?

Do you know

how much Mr. Kitano

donates to Foshan

every year?

My apologies! Mr. Kitano.

You may take the goods

What're you standing here for?

Clear the way!

Of course I welcome donations.

But if they are from the Japanese,

I will definitely decline

Why did you make such

a comment, Chairman?

Japan's evil intentions became apparent

after the Russo-Japanese War,

they annexed our territory...

and built the Manchurian Railway,

aiming at economic invasion

Look at what they did in the North-East,

their ambitions are obvious

I think I understand

how the Chairman feels

But the thing is, the Japanese Chamber

of Commerce in Foshan

did not participate in the

North-Eastern affair

Mr. Kitano came here only

to do business,

not much different from other

foreign investors

So I think we should treat

his donation the

same way as others
