No, thanks!

Let's go to a movie tonight

What about the others?

Siu Shan and Yiu Choi

don't like dramas

What about Ip Man?

Ip Man... has company

Let me think about it

Don't think fortoo long.

The movie will be off soon

When do you want

to go, then?

Actually, I've already got

two tickets.

Too bad I couldn't get toffee,

only some chocolates

Good day, Master Ng.

This is a present from Mr. Chan

Thank you, Yiu Choi!

Yes!

Take the presents

to the main hall

This way, please!

Thank you!

Look at these paper cuts, Man

Thanks for your trouble

Thank you!

Lay it out properly

Hey, move the left lantern

more to the left

All right!

Move the right lantern

more to the right

Finished?

Is my writing all right?

Tin Chi! Ip Man!

Put these couplets

on the front door

Alright!

I'll get the rice paste,

be back soon

Hurry!

Mr. Ip Tin Chi

Can I help you?

The Kitanos asked me

to deliver

a gift on your big day

Happy wedding day!

I really want to know

how you feel now

Thank you all! Cheers!

Hope you have

beautiful kids

I appreciate it

Congratulations!

Please take a seat!

Mr. Ip, please sit down!

Thanks

What a great evening!

Tin Chi's got himself a wife

and I've got a daughter

I'm very happy, too.

To me, Mei Wai is like

half a daughter

while Tin Chi is half a son

Now half a daughter is

marrying half a son;

half a son is marrying

half a daughter

The two halves together

form a perfect couple

Don't forget that Tin Chi

is my whole son

I'm most thrilled to see him

marrying your half daughter

You'll have another happy

occasion very soon.

I believe it'll be

Ip man's turn soon

Keep up the good work, Man!

Tin Chi,

have a wonderful

wedding night!

Thanks!

Congratulations on your promotion to

the Deputy Chairmanship, too. Cheers!

Thank you!

Why don't we fill up

the glasses?

Bottoms up!

Bottoms up!

Bottoms up!

Tin Chi, work hard!

I know, Dad. Cheers!

To my woman

To my man

Cheers again!

Come on!

Master!

He was very happy

and is a bit tipsy

Stay here tonight,

Ip Man. Go to sleep, go!

Yes, Sir!

Watch your step

Ip Man

Let's fill our glasses

again, Man

It's getting late,

President Lee

What do you mean

by late?

The night is still young.

Tin Chi said your martial

arts skill is superb

Come on!

Show me your skills

Next time!

Why next time?

Let's do it tonight

President Lee, seriously,

it's getting late!

Let's not start late, then

President Lee!

Sir!

We don't need you here.

Retire to your room. Let's try again

President Lee!

Let's go!

Sit tight, off we go!

Master Ng, Master Ip,

where's Tin Chi? Isn't he coming?

It was his wedding

night last night.

I'll tell him later

Let's go in first

Master

This way

I can't imagine the

honorable and

respected President ended up

with such a tragic death

We must locate the murderer,

the President cannot

die in vain

Show me in. Have you reported

to the police?

Not yet

We'd better report it first

Right away

Got it!

Where's my brother?

In his room

Ip Tin Chi!

Ip Tin Chi!

Ip Tin Chi, come with me

What's wrong?

You stay here.

You come with me right now;

I have to talk to you

What's the matter?

People should have

qualms of conscience

What're you getting at?

Didn't Lee Man Ho treat you

like his son?

Why did you do that?

What've I done?

Are you out of your mind?

Stop acting innocent!

Strangle me if you

have the balls

I have no clue

what you're talking about

You strangled President Lee,

only you used left hand

Lee is dead?

I won't let him die in vain!

Let go of him, Man!

What are you two doing?

Why start a fight?

Your Godfather was killed.

Look this man in the eyes.

He is the killer

All because he was strangled

with the left hand,

you're accusing me

of murder

I'm not the only one in Foshan

who's learned the strangling move

You taught me this move.

You know how to strangle

with your left hand, too.

The Japanese want to get rid

of their opponents.

You must be the one

who helped them

Tell me,

why did the Japanese send

gifts to your wedding?

I do business with

many foreigners.

It's no surprise that the Japanese

would send me presents

Swear that you have nothing

to do with President Lee's murder

All right! I, Ip Tin Chi swear...

Tin Chi, the police are here

Ip Man, have you reported

to the police?

Mr. Ip Tin Chi, we are here to take

Mr. Ip Man to the police station

Why are you taking

my brother away?

He's suspected of

President Lee's murder

Lee's servant witnessed

a fight and heated

argument between Ip Man

and Lee last night

The President was quite drunk

and my brother just escorted

him home

No need to start a fight with President Lee

after taking him home, right?

Arrest him

You're not taking

Ip Man away

There must be some understanding here.

My brother doesn't kill

Mr. Ip, please stop your wife from

obstructing our course of action

I'll go with them.

I fear not as I'm innocent

Go!

Ip Tin Chi, remember

you swore an oath

Inspector,

if you don't have enough

evidence to press charges,

you have to release him

Deputy Mayor,

Ip Man has been charged

with felony.

We need more time

to investigate

Ip Man is innocent,

you can't lock him up.

Miss Cheung,

we go by evidence; we don't bring

charges against innocent citizens

There are witnesses in this case.

If he's innocent,

why won't he try to

defend himself?

You keep saying

Ip Man is innocent;

do you have evidence,

Miss Cheung?

Unless you can prove his innocence,

stop making these empty claims

Ip Tin Chi has been elected President

of the Jing Wu Athletic Association

Good!

Congratulations!

Thank you!

Congratulations!

Thank you!

Mr. Kitano will donate

$300,000 to the Association

And will send his students here

to exchange knowledge.

Any objections?

Lee Man Ho...

killers in ambush

You can leave now!

How come?

Let's get out of here first

Come on!

At 10:
30 pm,

the night of the murder,

Ip Man came to

my place

We stayed up and chatted.

He was drunk and

so spent the night in my room

Miss Cheung, are you

telling the truth?

Were you really with Ip man

on the night of the murder?

Your testimony

is critical to the case

If you're making things up,

you could be arrested

I swear the truth in my capacity

as the Deputy Mayor's daughter

However, I can't simply

take your alibi and

believe that Ip Man

is innocent

I need more

supporting evidence

More supporting evidence?

Is my daughter's chastity

not enough

to prove his innocence?

I guess I need the

Provincial Governor

to come and do justice

Dad, don't be too upset.

I had no alternative but to

make up such a lie. I'm so sorry

You sacrificed your reputation

to rescue him;

just to rescue a Kung Fu guy!

You must marry my sister

as soon as you can!

Dad, don't get mad!

Wing Shing!

Sorry! I'm not worth it

Worth it or not is only

for me to decide

I don't want you to

marry me because of this

Wing Shing!

That's not what I mean,
