Introduction
he man with the tan, popular actor Louis Koo, takes on producing duties with Naked Ambition, an entertaining but problematic look at Hong Kong's sex industry. Based on the true-life exploits of co-writer Frankie Chung Kin-Keung, the film details the rise of two guys (played by Koo and Eason Chan) from lowly editors at a magazine to kings of the local porn industry. Along the way there's laughs, jabs at the porn industry, digs at their consumers, appearances by some comely Hong Kong actresses, occasional no-name skin, and then a final dip into the conflicts and moral issues that might arise from running your own porn empire.

Summary
John (Chan) and Andy (Koo) are two comic section editors for a local publication who get downsized unceremoniously. They join forces with some of their former colleagues to publish their own magazine, and use the savings of Andy's sweetheart girlfriend Pamela (Cherrie Ying) to fund the enterprise. Still, their first efforts aren't so well received, so they turn to the lowest common denominator: porn. With the bottom line as their guide, they decide to mimic Japanese sex guides and create their own inside look at Hong Kong's underground sex culture. The attempt turns out to be a success, and soon they start their way up the industry's food chain.
