Translation Service

Opening Titles

The first LoveHKFilm.com reader who correctly translates the above text for me wins an as-of-now undetermined prize of some sort. I know that doesn’t sound very promising, but believe me, your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks to any and all participants!

    (chen2)查理
    新血案

    The first line is a person’s name: Chen(2) Cha(1)li(3) translate to English is: Charles Chen. The second line’s Pin yin is: xin(1) xue(4)an(4). Xin(1) means new. Xue(4)an(4) literally means blood case, and usually means murder case.
    So basically you get “Charlie Chen’s new murder case.”

    Charlie Chan’s Blood Case

    Little Fish got it right except us kwai lo would call Chen- Chan

    Love the old Hollywood Charlie Chan movies (though I’m guessing this isn’t a Hollywood movie)

    BTW thanks, I use your site to choose my Asian movies and to understand them better.

    @LittleFish. As Chan would say, “Thank you, so much.” You’ll hear from me shortly.

    @Mark Wright — It’s actually from the opening credits of “The New Adventures of Charlie Chan,” a 1950s TV series.
