Shanghai Calling is a 2012 American romantic-comedy film written and directed by Daniel Hsia and produced by Janet Yang.

An ambitious lawyer in New York City named Sam (Daniel Henney), who is of Chinese descent, wins a major case for his firm, Powell & Davies, but is told by the partners that he must supervise the Shanghai branch office for three months or he will not be promoted.

However, Sam receives a phone call from Marcus, who is furious, having discovered that a Chinese factory is manufacturing and selling the same smartphone.

Awesome Wang tracks down the British actor and pressures him into disclosing Lin's residential address, but it turns out to be vacant.

She haughtily points out that Shanghai is quickly becoming a crossroads for the world's best and brightest, and is no longer a haven for middling Americans like Donald, Amanda, and Brad, who could not make it big in their own country.

Sam also comments, to Amanda, that he is impressed by Shanghai's rapid economic growth, and by the density of luxury brands within the city which serves to reflect the changing times.
