"Rich & Famous" tells the story of two boys who are not related but grew up as brothers, Kwok (Andy Lau) and Yung. While Yung is the elder, he is always getting into trouble which Kwok has to help bail him out of. One day his gambling goes too far and he loses a bet he cannot afford to lose. The pair hatch a plan to rob some money from a gang boss but this ends with their cousin getting stabbed and Kwok being taken away to be tortured. Luckily, their cousin works for Chai (Chow Yun Fat), a powerful man in the gangster circles who hires Kwok and his loose cannon brother Yung.
