Cheung chin fuchai (Always on My Mind)

The news that he is suffering from an incurable disease has an immense effect on an otherwise rather cowardly and routinized television newscaster. His belief that there is nothing worse in the world than death, causes him to go through an abrupt and extreme change of personality. All at once he allows himself to express his personal opinions during the news programmes and even finds the courage to detain a burglar. Much to his own surprise he becomes a hero overnight. This not only has the effect of boosting his ratings - he finds himself suddenly very rich.
