I must say, you look very good,
Mr. Chairman.
[INTERPRETER] Looks can be deceiving.
We know what risks you've taken
in inviting us here.
I took no risk.
I am too old to be afraid
of what anyone thinks.
[MAO SPEAKING IN MANDARIN]
[INTERPRETER] Don't ever trust them.
They never tell the truth
or honor their commitments.
Vietnamese are like Russians.
Both are dogs.
Mr. Chairman,
there's an old saying in my country:
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
That has
the added virtue of being true.
[KISSINGER] Your writings have
changed the world, Mr. Chairman.
[INTERPRETER] Bullshit.
My writings mean absolutely nothing.
- I want to know your secret.
- [KISSINGER] My secret, Mr. Chairman?
[SPEAKING IN MANDARIN]
How a fat man gets so many girls.
Power, Mr. Chairman,
is the ultimate aphrodisiac.
