Plot
Stephen Chiau Sing-Chi brings his unique manic mirth-making to the legendary Chinese folk hero Beggar So. In this madcap reworking of a classic tale, So is the illiterate son of a wealthy family. He enters a Chinese military arts tournament, but is disgraced when his lack of academic skills is revealed. Forced to walk the streets as a vagabond, So eventually joins the famed Society of Beggars, rising through the ranks to become their king. When the Emperor's life is endangered, So and his ragged army come to the rescue.
