In the turbulent and anxious days prior to Hong Kong's return to China, many businessmen worried about the future of profits after the end of British rule. Some new capitalists, intoxicated by a 'now or never' vision engaged in high risk, 'no holds barred' tactics in an attempt to secure extraordinary financial returns.Paying to Play in Hong Kong is a multicultural adventure staged between Hong Kong and Washington, D.C. in 1995-96. It concerns the contentious merger of two companies-- one on mainland China and the other on Hong Kong. Wong Xi, a beautiful Eurasian head of Hong Kong's major silk company, is seeking to pull off a merger impressive enough to make her one of Asia's most powerful taipans. Harry Morton, an affluent and charismatic African American consultant hopes for one more spectacular international business success before retirement. Wong recognizes the need for world-class advice and asks for Morton's help. Harry takes the job and soon finds himself caught in a twisted buy-out scheme of blackmail and murder involving Xi and a former general in Mao's army (Xaobin Li). A passionate affair with his client further complicates Harry's assignment. Nevertheless, he is able to skillfully negotiate the treacherous cultural and ethnic currents running through the business deal. In the end, everyone gains, but the personal costs and sacrifices are higher than anyone had ever imagined.
