The White Countess Page #2
My, my, this is a surprise.
I didn't expect to meet you
in a place like this.
We better keep this from your dad, eh?
I came to look for you, sir.
I thought you might want a little company.
Oh, that's good of you.
Mr. Jackson, what are you doing here?
A place like this.
this is a dive.
Dive?
Well, this establishment here, Thomas,
may not be perfect.
Oh, no, it's not perfect at all.
In my opinion, it's a mighty impressive
little place all the same.
Mr. Jackson, a man of your fine reputation--
this is Shanghai, Thomas.
A person can do much as he pleases.
-But I think you might be more comfortable--
-Thomas, my friend...
why don't you go home
and get some sleep?
I don't like you wandernig around
these parts of town.
I feel kind of responsable for you
on account of your dad.
Anything happens to you here,
I feel I would have to answer to him.
Now go on home to bed.
Me, I've got a few things still to do up here.
Well, then.
-Good night, sir.
-Good night, Thomas.
Pardon me.
Excuse me.
-How are you?
-Fine. How are you?
-Fine.
-Dragon, please.
-Thank you. Goodbye.
-Goodbye.
Please forgive me, sir,
but I couldn't help overhearing.
That young man, he is your protege?
No, hardly.
He, like most people, fanls to see...
all there is to see.
Myself, I tend to agree
with your assessment.
this establishment is not perfect...
but it is certanily one of the best
Shanghai has to offer at this moment.
I believe, sir,
I've seen you around here before.
It's very possible.
We have nothing to match this in Japan.
Not even in Tokyo.
Shanghan these days is remarkable.
It has several places
of comparable standard.
These places you say
are of a comparable standard...
-just which ones did you have in mind?
-Not far from here, there is the Navy Bar.
-Navy Bar.
-I personally fnid it very interesting.
Then there is the Wha Kim
in the French Concession.
And perhaps...
the Last Chance in Foochow road.
Myself, I'd add the Ching Lieng to that list.
Ching Lieng, I wonder--
Ching Lieng isn't so much to your taste?
It is very interesting,
but in my personal opinion...
perhaps not at quite the same level as...
-well, for instance, here.
-You may be right.
But I like him very much.
I'm pleased
to make your acquanitance, Mr....
-Matsuda.
-Matsuda.
And you, sir.
I believe you are Mr. Todd Jackson.
The distinguished American diplomatist.
Not so distinguished.
The same Todd Jackson, I believe...
whom the English Foreign Minister
once referred to as...
-the last hope for the League of Nations.
-That was all a few years back.
I have no quarrel with your countrymen
anymore, Mr. Matsuda.
