Saving Mr. Wu (Jie jiu wu xian sheng) (解救吾先生)

Back up a bit.

Parking?

It's alright. We're police.

Are all the cars' owners in the karaoke?

Yes. The white car belongs to an executive.

And this one?

This belongs to the actor in...

A big movie star anyway. What happened?

Nothing. Just asking.

Your wife's picking you up again?

Not this time. Had a fight.

Pretty big one too.

We're waiting to see who blinks first.

Mr. Wu, I'd like a picture.

No problem

1, 2, 3

Enough. Enough. Thanks.

Sorry about that.

We'll be here forever if you take pictures with all of them.

Please buy some flowers.

They're out.

Let me. Give him the flowers.

Now go home and do your homework.

For your wife? I knew you'd blink first.

- Why give them to me? - You paid! For your girlfriend.

My girlfriend?

30 RMB for two hours, sir.

Let me get it.

Excuse me, sir, can I ask you something?

- Is this car yours? - Yes.

We're from the City Police Bureau's Criminal Division.

This car was in a hit-and-run.

I hope you'll cooperate.

Can you show us your driving license?

That's impossible!

I hardly drive. I'm not used to driving on the right.

Did you drink?

No!

Is a Hong Kong driving license even legal here?

Of course. I completed all the paperwork.

- Can you show me your police ID? - Yes.

We've been tracking your car for several days.

Days? That makes no sense.

Isn't this under the jurisdiction of the traffic police?

Which section of the Police Bureau are you from again?

If you have questions,

ask them at the station.

It's clear, right?

But right now I need your cooperation, okay?

I don't understand your procedures.

Let me call 110.

You mean you're not willing to cooperate?

You think you deserve special treatment? Cuff him!

- What did you say? - Say what?

What are you doing? Freeze.

How can the police...

You're obstructing police business. Shut your mouth!

One more word and I'll arrest you. Understand?

How can the police...?

Take him away!

Don't move!

We're bringing him in. We can verify there.

You're not police.

You're kidnapping me.

Would you believe me if I denied it?

That's pretty much what happened.

Even if it went down differently,

my version is now the official one.

So you were impersonating a police officer?

Why not? Mr. Wu impersonated a cop too...

What movie was it?

It's not the same. Where are you keeping Mr. Wu?

No idea.

- You think this is funny? - Not especially.

Then stop talking nonsense!

Zhang, you're not as smart as you think.

- If you're so smart, find him yourself. - Cocky much?

Me? You are! Hurry up and beat me!

You think you're special. But we caught you, didn't we?

You deserve a beating for what you did!

Stop jabbering and beat me then!

Zhang, we know you're not some petty thief.

You're smart. Smart people do what's best for themselves.

First, tell me how you found me.

Chief, he keeps looking at the clock.

We're running out of time.

But Mr. Wu should still be alive.

He's still alive, right?

- Yep. - Alive or dead makes all the difference.

There's your opportunity. Think it through.

In these cases,

his partners will be waiting for him to contact them.

He never received any calls on his phone.

He only made calls. We switched it off.

They must have agreed on a deadline.

Since we're all here, let's get down to business.

You're accomplices will wait until when?

- 9 - AM or PM?

PM

There's 90 minutes left. What happens then?

We follow the rules.

What rules? Talk!

Execution.

That's not a rule!

I have my own rulebook

I do how I please

I decide who lives and dies.

Who do you think you are?

So you're going to keep fighting us?

For now you can only...

I have to consider

whether I still have any hope.

Your only hope is to make amends for your crimes.

Everything Zhang had with him is here.

They were on him or in his car.

Can I name one condition?

Go ahead.

If I help save Mr. Wu,

then you'll let me go.

You're not taking your situation seriously

I am. But this is what's on my mind.

We live together or die together

I thought you were smarter

I am. I was as good as dead when I was caught

I'm gonna die, right? I'm a dead man for sure.

The weapons alone add up to several death sentences.

There were three firearms in his car's trunk.

Two guns and a grenade on his person.

We found another gun at his girlfriend's place.

Kidnapping is too easy. He should secure the Diaoyu Islands!

Over 200 bullets of different calibers.

Check them out!

5 bullets in the clip

1 bullet in the gun.

No bullets in the revolver

9 bullets in the clip and 1 in the gun

29 bullets in the AK clip and 1 in the gun.

Frankly, you're one capable guy.

Where did you learn this stuff?

If I said from Hollywood movies, would you believe me?

Why not from the Black Cat Detective animation?

- I'm joking! - Enough!

The time you're wasting is your own. You get that?

The sooner the hostage is released, the better for you. Understand?

Zhang, we can't avoid the subject of Mr. Wu tonight.

Let's get back to him.

Did he fight back in the car after you kidnapped him?

You're a useless driver!

Am I your kidnapping target?

Mr. Wu, just blame it on bad luck.

How could we not kidnap a movie star right in front of us?

How long was the drive?

It was about...

Stop trying to trick me

I told you my conditions. Give it some thought.

Let's change the subject.

Your guns? Quite a collection!

Where did you get them? Fill me in.

He says he doesn't know your buddy.

But they know money.

I'm paying for the next batch too.

What's wrong?

- They don't want to sell to you. - Why?

They say you look like a cop.

Do I?

You are shit.

Stop provoking. Carry on!

What are they saying?

That we're both cops.

Explain that we're not cops.

How do you say "friend" in Russian?

He won't buy this many firearms just for a kidnapping.

Why did you secure so many weapons?

Can't I keep some secrets?

Thought I'd make history.

Too bad I missed my chance.

Your role in history will only be that of a rotting corpse! Understand?

Can you guess how we found you?

I was careless. The women...

Five women including the one today.

Can you handle so many?

So you know everything!

The dumplings they ordered.

Eat them while they're hot.

Thanks.

Dig in. We have more.

A movie star is too high profile a target.

So you regret it?

Even millionaires have cash flow problems.

We'd have abducted another ordinary guy if we'd known.

Another ordinary guy? What do you mean?

He has other operations going on

I told you. I kidnapped only one person. That's Mr. Wu.

Let's cut the chase

I'm telling nothing but the truth.

The truth?

We can't talk if you're not going to be straight.

Zhang, you've already lost.

There's no point in continuing to fight with us.

You still have some bargaining chips, don't you?
