Everyone with money is fleeing

as if it were 1997 again.

The outlook for luxury flats

will worsen for a long time yet.

Stephen,

I've decided to change the plans;

instead of building 2000 sq. Ft. Flats,

divide them into four 500 sq. Ft. Flats.

I've worked it out. This type of small

flat is best suited for small families.

I'm sure that it will sell well.

Boss, if we split one flat into four,

with only 70% of the area being usable,

then one can only fit a bed and

no wardrobe in the bedroom.

Nah,

you get what you pay for.

If I sell my flats at a low price,

even a blue-collar worker

can afford a mortgage.

The Building Authority won't approve

it in time if we make changes now.

Don't worry about it.

Just do as I say.

Change the plans for all the other

construction sites too.

You can just make the changes while

submitting the new plans to the BA.

Contact the contractor to have the

workers start working nights too.

If we sell the flats earlier,

we'll make the money back.

- The sooner it's finished, the better.

- Yes.

CID! Don't move! CID!

So what if you're CID?

Don't move! Police!

"Pay our wages"?

PAY OUR WAGES:

- What?

- Police.

- Can't I collect the wages owed to me?

- Move!

So what if you're cops?

Mr. Wong, it seems that they're not

here to kidnap you.

It's not that simple.

- Work is available; wages aren't!

- PAY OUR WAGES QUICK!

Wong Yat-Fei, a heartless scoundrel!

Work is available; wages aren't!

Wong Yat-Fei, a...

...the wages aren't!

Wong Yat-Fei, a heartless scoundrel!

Work is available; wages aren't!

Wong Yat-Fei, a heartless scoundrel!

CID! Don't start any trouble!

- Come on, guys!

- Let's get him!

- Stay calm!

- Arrest them!

Why are you arresting my colleagues!

You think you cops

can just arrest anyone!

Arrest me! Arrest me!

Put away your guns!

Everyone back up!

Back up!

See here...

Keep your cool, everyone!

And if we don't?

What the hell?!

- Losing my cool doesn't kill me!

- Arrest him!

Let go!

- Fight them!

- Fight them!

Step back!

Step back!

Step back!

Get out of the way!

Get out of the way!

Listen to me, everyone!

Stay calm!

Can't you stay calm?

- Stay calm?!

- How?!

We're like you, salaried employees!

- I've...

- You understand then!

...never experienced

the frustrations of not getting paid.

But I haven't successfully

negotiated a raise either!

Nothing's come of all the talk about

a stipend for dangerous duties!

We want to protest at a rally too!

You think we're your enemy?!

Then why are you stopping us

demonstrating?!

As long as you follow the rules and

petition to demonstrate,

as police,

we can even clear the streets for you!

Hong Kong is supposedly
