The Jiang Wen directed and starred film LET THE BULLETS FLY even invited two film industry Best Actors Chow Yun Fat and Ge You to compete in acting. Fat Gor honestly said that he truly enjoyed working with two great actors and had no pressure at all. Thus they were
reluctant to part during the wrap.

With Fat Gor's rare support, Jiang Wen smartly arranged for Fat Gor to play two roles, a crazy and unconventional bully and an idiot. Fat Gor joked that Jiang Wen has "squeezed him dry" but he had no complaint, as he was willing to be "squeezed". Although this collaboration was
pleasant, it was also a more difficult one for Fat Gor in recent years. In one scene he was tied up on a metal wire bed for questioning. The team lifted up the entire bed frame. The bed had a lot of thorns. Fat Gor only wore a flimsy under shirt and his wrists were tightly tied. The shoot took all day and Fat Gor was tied up all day. The team suggested untying him after each shoot, but Fat Gor hinted that he was able to endure until the end. After the shoot, Fat Gor's wrists were red and swollen. His upper body was injured from the thorns. However he said that it was no big deal. His professionalism made the entire team applaud and cheer, "Fat Gor is great!"
