Synopsis
While he was tailing a Jockey Club trader in his investigation, Principal Investigator William Luk of the ICAC witnessed the murder of the trader by a lone assassin. Inspector Lau Po Keung of the Crime Unit was assigned to the murder and got nowhere with Luk’s testimony as Luk refused to disclose anything pertaining to his own investigation. Another classic run-in between the Police and ICAC was in the making. When the Police investigation led to someone called Teacher, the biggest player who controls the illegal bookmaking on football betting in Hong Kong, Terry Lun, the Security Manager of the Jockey Club was murdered. While Lau was in hot pursuit of the assassin, the assassin escaped with the help of Lau’s sister, Ebby. The hired hit was ordered by Big Boss, the mastermind behind an international crime syndicate who manipulated football matches in Europe. His partner was Ha Chi Yin, one of the directors of the Jockey Club who was the shoo-in candidate as the next Chairman. Two disciplined forces embarked on the case with mutual distrust ended up with rapport and understanding to uproot the crime syndicate…

International Box Office: Bridget Jones’s Baby Bounces its way to Top Spot with $29.00 million
September 22nd, 2016
Bridget Jones’s Baby struggled when it opened in theaters here, but it earned first place internationally with $29.00 million on 4,866 screens in 39 markets. It opened in its native U.K. with $10.53 million. This is a record opening in the U.K. for its production company, genre, and for the month of September. It is also more than it made here during its opening weekend, despite the U.K. market being five or six times smaller than the domestic market. The film also earned first place in Australia with $2.76 million on 483 screens over the weekend for a total opening of $3.68 million. This is also much better than its debut here, albeit not by as large a margin. The film cost $35 million to make and it has already made more than that worldwide. If it has legs, it will top $100 million internationally, which will be enough to cover its production budget, while it should ensure profitability, eventually.
