After winning the Hong Kong Film Award Best Actor this year, Nick Cheung Ka Fai two nights ago again with THE BEAST STALKER (JING YUN) won the Golden Horse Best Leading Actor prize. Yesterday he returned from Taipei to Hong Kong. Ka Fai said that he did not expect to win. When his wife learned that he won again she screamed with excitement. Ka Fai even boasted that his salary was worth 100 million. At the airport he ran into good friend Bobby Auyeung Chun Wa. They not only hug to celebrate, Bobby even pretended to kowtow to his majesty and pleased Best Actor Fai even more.

Cheung Ka Fai yesterday arrived in Hong Kong around 4. With his Golden Horse Award Ka Fai was in great spirits. As soon as he exited the gate he held the prize high. Not only Emperor Motion Picture workers presented flowers, but foreign visitors also screamed "congratulations" and foreign workers screamed "I love you". People also called out "Best Actor Fai", which brought a smile to his face. Ka Fai after his interview also posed for the media. Ka Fai revealed that two nights ago he thought he would be very calm because he has already won multiple awards with THE BEAST STALKER. He thought that he could be calm at the venue, but when he received the award his heart beat faster. He joked, "I was afraid that I would drop dead right there."

He revealed that he watched his competition's films and felt that his chance would not be too high. When he talked with fellow Best Actor Huang Bo he praised his acting as outstanding. He said, "Honestly the competition was strong. I thought I would lose. During the announcement of two winners I guessed that they were me and Huang Bo, I am very satisfied with the result!" As for the close score between him and Huang Bo, he said, "I guess the competition was very fierce. Other nominees are also very excellent, but I feel this result is great! Two nights ago I already called my wife. When I told her I won she was so happy she screamed. Our daughter said Mommy woke her up. She was almost scared to death!" As for a place for the prize, he joked, "I still have room, but I wouldn't put it that can easily be seen. If I get more I still have

room."

He even expressed that when he got on stage he felt a little weak because earlier at a dance scene he pulled something. Because he was very tired two nights ago, after the event celebration he returned to the hotel to rest. As for how he would celebrate, Ka Fai said that he would not buy a gift for himself or need his wife to. He said, "Mainly sharing the joy with everyone is already enough, dinner is definite. Last time when I won the Hong Kong Film Awards (Sandra Ng) Kwan Yu didn't come. Two nights ago she said this time she definitely will arrive early. As for good friends Lau Ching Wan and (Anthony) Wong Chau Sun already called to congratulate."

Earlier Ka Fai joked that his salary will increase five folds. Yesterday he explained, "I only answered what was asked. The hike is market determined and beyond my control. I felt I won several awards my salary could be 100 million!"

With his December 2 birthday, Ka Fai admitted that the Golden Horse was his best birthday present. He said, "This gift can't be bought with money, more valuable than any gift. I feel this is the most expensive gift!" In addition, yesterday afternoon when he left the airport he ran into good friend Auyeung Chun Wai. Bobby joked, "So many flash bulbs are blocking my exit! You won again, you even got the gravy!" Bobby joked that only due to the mid day rerun of THE LEGENDARY FOUR ACES (GUM JONG SEI DAI CHOI JI) did he not forget about Ka Fai. Bobby even jokingly kneeled and bowed to the king. They also hug. Ka Fai brought the award to Bobby for a closer look. Bobby joked, "You really wanted this badly!" They also made plans for dinner then left separately.

In addition, the fresh out of the oven Best Actors Cheung Ka Fai, Huang Bo, Best Actress Li Bingbing and other winners and guests two nights ago attended the Golden Horse celebration. Ang Lee and Maggie Cheung Man Yuk ran into each other. Man Yuk expressed that she has met Ang Lee several times but this time they had the most time to chat. yet they did not talk about collaboration. She expressed that actually with good scripts and good characters she wanted to make movies. Of course she would also like to work with Ang Lee. Ang Lee was asked whether he would approach Man Yuk about a movie. He hoped to have suitable characters for her, he said that she seemd to be able to play anyone. Wai Ying Hung yesterday around 6PM also arrived in Hong Kong. She arrived with her sister and brought the award for press photos. She also kissed the award. Yet actually she was kissing the Golden Horse's rear and everyone had to remind her to turn the prize around. She joked that she could not even tell the horse head from tail anymore.
