The Chow Yun Fat starred film ONE MORE CHANCE (BIT GIU NGOR DOH SUN) yesterday held a "Fat Gor treats you to ice cream" promotion in Mongkok, as Fat Gor and Fat Soh treated everyone to ice cream out of their own pockets. Actors Kenny Wong Tak Bun, Amy Lo Wai Man and Will Or Wai Lam gathered from 3 to 5PM, in 2 hours they gave away 10,000 cups of ice cream and drew a large crowd. Or Wai Lam and Lo Wai Man promoted for the first time with ice cream, for which they said that it was in coordination with an ice cream scene in the film. Since the pandemic they have not had any opportunity to be in close contact with the audience, so this time was perfect; although it was very crowded, Lo Wai Man was not worried. Because she has always been more of a tomboy, she was not afraid of crowds. Instead for the promotion the more people the better.

In the film, Or Wai Lam played Fat Gor's son. Lo Wai Man played a social worker who would mediate between father and son and bring them closer together. Or Wai Lam praised how happy working with Fat Gor has been. He would physically take care of everyone, and constantly ran and ate with everyone. Finally he ended up gaining a lot of weight that he had to lose. Lo Wai Man said that she has always been diligent about exercising, so she did not gain weight from the cuisine. However she praised Fat Gor for taking care of the entire team well whether during the production or breaks. Originally she only learned from the news that Fat Gor liked to take the MTR and selfies, thus at first contact she would be nervous around this elder. After working together, she felt that he was very friendly and attentive to everyone. He knew to protect people so everyone during the performance would not be afraid, and they would perform even better. From him she learned a lot. In addition, actually elders Wong Tak Bun and the late Dick Liu Kai Chi also taught the younger generation like them a lot of acting technique while working together.

Chow Yun Fat and Anita Yuen Wing Yi were promoting in the mainland. Since it was the eve of the Duen Ng Festival, Chow Yun Fat and Len Len both wrapped zongs. When asked what his favorite filling was, Chow Yun Fat said, "The most important to the Cantonese is still that piece of fatty pork, but this fatty pork seems a little thin." Seeing how familiar he was with the zong wrapping as he even bit the straw, everyone was very surprised. Len Len said, "How do you even know that? You are truly invincible! A god is a god!"
