Synopsis by Clarke Fountain

In this sequel to the mild drama Hei Pau Shi Jian (The Black Cannon Incident), the man whose career was nearly stalled by a misunderstood translation in the earlier film has been promoted to be the head of a large corporation. However, he has discovered not only that it's lonely at the top, it's boring. There are just too doggone many meetings to attend. In this comedy, the resourceful businessman makes a robot which resembles him sufficiently to take his place at the many dull meetings he is forced to attend. All goes well until the robot decides he wants some of life's goodies too and develops some habits that are distinctly unlike those of his creator.
