Game of Death Page #2

---

You're just

another piece of property,

just one

of a couple of thousand

of public personalities

that they own all of

or a piece of.

It seems like

a good thing at the moment.

They take care

of everything...

your booking,

your salary, your taxes.

If you need 5,000

in your pocket,

you've got it.

It's later

that you start to realize

what it's costing you.

I don't have to remind you

about Charlie Wang.

We know the pressure

they put on him,

and we know they

called him in for a "talk."

Hyah!

The next day,

he was fished

out of the harbor.

But going along with them

isn't much better.

You've come up

fast, Billy.

The pictures are grossing big

all over the world.

You're an international

celebrity,

and they smell

that money.

Thank you.

You can sign

with them

and live very well,

or you can defy them

and go

to the police,

which means you

won't live so well,

if at all.

Is it your advice

to let them own us?

No. I just

don't want to write

an obituary on you.

I like you too much,

which is my cue

to get my ass

down to the bureau.

I've got

a midnight deadline

for the States.

I can't allow it.

It is better to die

a broken piece of jade

than to live a life of clay.

Qit. You've got

enough money.

Tell them to go to hell.

I can leave this all behind.

I don't

need this

if you

don't need it.

There has

to be another answer.

I've got to find one.

The Chinese opera is in town.

Maybe see your uncle.

Yeah, he just got back.

I'll go to the theater tomorrow.

Good idea.

All three of them

are leaving the restaurant.

What should we do?

Don't lose them.

Alegandre, from now on,

I want you to coordinate

all your efforts with

the ad agency in New York.

And by the way, what are

the odds where you are now?

Well, then keep

the publicity going

about Carl's rumored

sprained ligament.

Don't give the impression

that the fight's

going to be canceled,

just that he's in pain

and might be

at a disadvantage.

You got that?

Ciao.

The odds are a little

too heavy on Carl,

especially in London.

Yes, a good idea

to even that up a bit.

Oh, by the way,

what about Billy Lo?

He was told to

call earlier today.

He has

the number to call.

Oh, do we know where

he is at this moment?

Well, we always know

where he is.

Well, then

a final warning,

Ok, Carl?

Yes, Pasqual.

You go with him.

Pasqual loves to fight, yes.

Ha ha.

Let me use your brush.

Thanks.

Billy, good to see you.

Hi, John. I'm glad you're back.

Your uncle

is in his room.

Billy. Come in, Billy.

Come in. Hey. Hey!

You go ahead.

It's good to see you, boy.

Sit down. Sit down.

We do not see you much

since you got to be

a big man.
