Fat Hung dreams of being rich. Not being an enormous fan of hard work, Hung and his friend Hoi, constantly cheat people out of their money in order to place bets and one day win their millions. Suddenly luck runs out for the tricky gamblers, when Hoi attempts to double cross a group of gangsters � nothing quite like getting caught by a bunch of gangsters. Hung needs to raise a million dollars in order to save Hoi's life and although he tries every trick in his large book of tricks, he fails to raise the steep sum. Hung is forced to tell his father, which inevitably ends in a fierce argument. Having lost his own father at the hands of gangsters, Hung's dad is deeply disappointed in his son and his dishonest dodgey dealings. During the enraged argument, their shouts awaken the spirit of Hung's grandfather. As if one tribe of gangsters isn't enough to deal with, Grandpa strikes up a deal with Hung, promising him years of gambling 'luck' if he avenges his death by killing the gangsters responsible. Hung stars in a triple role as son, father and Grandpa Hung, in this action packed comedy.
