Dayo Wong Tze Wa and Louis Cheung Kai Chung in the new
film TABLE FOR SIX (FAN HEI GUNG SUM) maintained their brotherly bond
with roast pork. Tze Wa in the film even had a barbecue scene. He
said that he learned on the set for 10 minutes or so, saying that the
roast pork in the film was very symbolic. When the family got together
for dinner they needed more food, the first thought would be roast
pork. Cheung Kai Chung pointed out that the new film was rather
educational, making people reflect on the importance of family.
Wong Tze Wa and Cheung Kai Chung earlier promoted their new
film TABLE FOR SIX together. They both praised how great the script
was, and how much fun everyone had making the film. With Tze Wa in
the film, conceivably the audience would like him to be able to let
loose his comedy. Tze Wa said, "The film is pretty cute, warm and
crazy, with everyone in it. I would describe it as a warm, passionate
comedy. Ah Chung and I are brothers who fight over a girl in the film.
Some scenes were very extreme, guaranteed to keep wowing you at the
movies!" Ah Chung said that with comedy bad takes were inevitable,
but the most memorable to him was that the so-called "Tze Wa God"
was not distant at all. "I am very grateful to be able to work with
Tze Wa. After working together I feel that he isn't a god who keeps
people at a distance, but he is someone is very close. From him I
have learned a lot."
The film used roast pork to connect the brotherly bond between
Tze Wa, Ah Chung and Peter Chan Charm Man. Ah Chung revealed that in
the film when he was little his mother married Tze Wa's father. They
were step siblings. Later their parents gave birth to Chan Charm Man.
Because their father made roast pork, they lived in his roast pork
shop. To them, roast pork was synonymous with home. Big brother Tze
Wa also worked very hard to maintain this family. Tze Wa said, "In
the film I have to make roast pork, at the very least I learned for
ten or so minutes. A master was present on the set, if we have to
wait until I become one then we would be in trouble. In addition my
character isn't too great at making roast pork. Actually in the film
roast pork is very symbolic, the most able to represent family. As
soon as Hong Kong people mention roast pork they would feel the
warmth." Ah Chung said, "Roast pork isn't very expensive, but when you
are overseas you would really miss it. If you think about it you may
even cry. It has a lot of emotions in it, like my feeling with Big
Brother in the film. I feel since we are several decades old, we
should live together anymore. I want to start a family, but when I
really move out I would miss it. This movie is really suitable for
the Lunar New Year. Whenever holidays come around we miss home more,
it's pretty education. I should tell my son to watch it. At his age
he wants to finish dinner fast and disappear. I went through this
experience too. In my 20s and 30s I wouldn't pay Lunar New Year visits
with my family, now but as an adult I really enjoy family dinners."
Speaking of the Lunar New Year, Tze Wa said that he definitely
would pay elders Lunar New Year visits. He also liked the holidays
very much. "Holidays themselves depend on what people do, life also
depends on what people do. For example we really appreciate Carnival
in Brazil. They could dance for a month, we foreigners thought that
it would be very excessive but people give each holiday meaning. As
long as we are doing it together we would have a lot of fun, but if
we don't we wouldn't die. Holidays are opportunities for everyone to
get together. Life is just endlessly looking for excuses to make
ourselves happy. Everyone should find some reasons to be happy.
Everyday should be about finding reasons to make yourself happy,
because happiness isn't guaranteed." Ah Chung pointed out that
traditions are trendy now. He too would pay attention to details in
his life. He joked that now when he goes out he would be sharply
dressed, not like before when he just threw something on; just like
giving meaning to holidays would make life different.
