The Romancing Star III is a 1989 Hong Kong romantic comedy film directed by Sherman Wong and starring Stanley Fung , Wong Jing , Lawrence Cheng , James Wong , Shing Fui-On , Sam Christopher Chan and guest stars Andy Lau , the star of The Romancing Star II
Chow Si-pak (Shing Fui-On ), Dried Pork (Wong Jing ), Lo Ka-ying (Lawrence Cheng and Yo (Sam Christopher Chan) are cousins who are unemployed. Later, they get jobs at Ken Lau's (Stanley Fung ) car garage. Lau's rival, Bluffer Wong (James Wong ), has a competing business that employs young girls as the mechanics. The girls are spectacularly attractive, and include Wong's sister in-law, Man, (Sharla Cheung ) and his three daughters Ching (Chingmy Yau ), Man-man (Vivian Chow and Tak (Wanda Yung), meaning the boys are primed to chase them all over Hong Kong. But they lack the skills to woo the ladies, so they call the Love Doctor, Ken's nephew Lau Pei (Andy Lau ), who teaches them the unbeatable "13 Ways to Seduce a Woman".
