In order to be in close contact with even more viewers, Chow Yun Fat for several weeks in a row led the ONE MORE CHANCE (BIT GIU NGOR DOH SUN) team to meet viewers everywhere. Last weekend, Fat Gor even attentively took care of the New Territories viewers as he visited many cinemas in Tsuen Wan, Tuen Mun and Tin Shui Wai and met with over 1,000 viewers.

Two days ago under the number 3 tropical cyclone signal, Fat Gor and director Anthony Pun (Poon Yiu Ming), producer Wong Bun, art director Man Lim Chung, Will Or Wai Lam and others appeared at the 1,000 people show at the Sunbeam Theater. The 1,000 people audience included Fat Fans but also different lower class families, gambling addict families, volunteers and community welfare organization viewers. Fata Gor at this 1,000 people show continued to spread the positive message from the film. For everyone to experience that determination was the power of change, Fat Gor even invited viewers to talk with on the stage and share their experience. One viewer recalled running into Fat Gor working on location and how he took care of his co-stars, they even wept and could not continue to speak.

Although the weather was poor, it did not put a damper on the event. No seat was empty among the over 1,000 seats as the live audience responded enthusiastically. Some were even from Macau, Guangzhou and Korea. Without any fear, they were supports who wanted to personally catch a glimpse of Fat Gor; some viewers wept in joy, saying that they have already supported their idol for decades. When Fat Gor heard he immediately gave hugs of love and heated up the atmosphere.

After the 1,000 people show, the team went to Hollywood Square to meet with viewers. Not only did they catch Edwin Siu Ching Nam and Priscilla Wong Chui Yu on a date, but also on hand were overseas fans from Canada and a female viewer who got so emotional she broke into tears; a teenager felt that ONE MORE CHANCE like ALL ABOUT AH LONG was able to affect him. Because he liked Fat Gor he called himself "Mark". Fat Gor was surprised that at such a young age he has already enjoyed films from over 30 years ago and made quite an impression on him.

To loyal fans who have seen ONE MORE CHANCE since its release three, four, nine and even 19 times, Fat Gor expressed his gratitude.
