The Lunar New Year film ROB N ROLL (LUM SI GIP ONG) would be released during this Lunar New Year and celebrate the holiday with Chinese people in Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand and the other places around the world simultaneously.

ROB N ROLL was Derek Yee Tung Sing produced, Albert Mak Kai Kwong directed, Aaron Kwok Fu Sing, Richie Jen (Yam Yin Chai), Gordon Lam Ka Tung and Maggie Cheung Ho Yee starred. The film was triggered by a robbery. The Aaron played robber triggered a robbery on Temple Street, in the process he stumbled his way into dragging in taxi driver Lam Ka Tung and nursing home social worker Yam Yin Chai. With a breakthrough performance this time, Kwok Fu Sing in ROB N ROLL played the armed robber Mui Nam Tin. Aaron pointed out that the character would not be a breakthrough in costume, but he also hoped that the personality would be a little different from armed robbers in the usual crime films. Thus he spent a lot of time and effort on it.

Aaron, director Mak Kai Kwong and costume designer Man Lim Chung before the production began discussed diligently on how to inject dark comedy elements into the character. At the same time about the costume design, Aaron also provided some suggestions. He said, "In a short time we have to show that the character is a wrestler, no matter what he has to have some chest muscles, firm physique, so before the shoot I increased my fitness training. In addition in the script I would have wrestling (cauliflower) ears, mainly for the audience to feel that the character is also full of experience." Aaron in order to demonstrate the wrestling ears that best fit the role posed for several mold making for the costume. Aaron said, "I feel this concept is pretty interesting, I have to make it the best."

After Aaron's bucktooth costume was exposed, it instantly became he focus. This idea even came from Aaron himself. Aaron revealed, wearing the false teeth at first was uncomfortable. He took them home in advanced to practice reading the script and try to overcome the obstacles from wearing them as soon as possible.

This time the ROB N ROLL production team applied to the government for the closure of Temple Street for a week of production. Aaron said, "No one has shot Temple Street in a long time, I am grateful to the Hong Kong government for lending the streets. We shot the gun fight during the 7 day closure of Temple Street. We rehearsed many times, really like a play. It was very exciting, very memorable. I hope everyone would like it."
