Afraid of Nothing, The Jobless King (1999) 失業皇帝 Director: Joe Ma Wai-Ho Starring: Lo Ka Leung, GiGi Leung, Sam Lee A fun and original story about a rich company manger who becomes a beggar after his corrupt boss fires him. When a company CEO is fired for refusing to take bribes from a corrupt boss, he find himself homeless and jobless. But once he meets a beautiful, young blind woman, his optimism returns and he sets out to claim back what he has lost. Gallen Law plays Ha Kong, a yuppie super-rich company manager whose lifestyle is drastically changed when his boss dies. The boss' son takes over the company and cans Ha Kong. Made to 'disappear' for a couple of days, Ha re-emerges as a beggar crawling though Causeway Bay. Unwittingly, he finds himself on the 'turf' of a team of professional beggars, led by Brother Jing (Eric Kot). The team pick him up and soon he lands a job in a pharmaceuticals company. The firm owes millions to the Tung Group and, after falling for his new boss' daughter (GiGi Leung), and with the help of his new jobless companions and his godfather (Spencer Lam), Ha strikes back at his former employer.
