[ BRAODWAY CIRCUIT ]
  This time around, in a whole new hilarious and sarcastic level, 12 GOLDEN DUCKS tells the story of a bunch of bittersweet gigolos who struggle to survive the economic downturn. Their tireless and striving spirit is precisely the reflection of every Hongkonger living in a metropolis filled with opportunity and hope.

  Devastated by a love affair, former in-demand gigolo Future Chang retreats to Thailand, leading the life a dissolute. Thanks to the intervention of his high school teacher, Mr. Lo, Future summons the courage to return to Hong Kong. With the help of his friend Ricky, a gym trainer, he works hard to get back into shape, determined to make a comeback in the “duck” (male escort) trade. To Future’s surprise, Hong Kong has undergone a dramatic transformation since he left the city. Even the rules of the duck trade have completely changed! In order to ply his trade, Future is reduced seeking clients at an old age nursery home for women. Meanwhile, the places where women can buy happiness have become much more accessible, operating in neighborhood establishments such as a Thai restaurant...Determined to adapt to their new environment, Future and his desperate cohorts Dick Wide, Nebula and Broker Chan decide to dedicate themselves to satisfying the needs of their new client.

However, Mark is sly as a fox, he slips through Ken’s hands several times before he is finally captured.
