Josie Ho Chiu Yi yesterday appeared on a Commercial Radio interview to promote her film company's first film DREAM HOME (WAI DOR LEI AH YUT HO). Chiu Yi even sang the film theme song. This film expressed her displeasure at the real estate companies, but her father Stanley Ho Hung Sun is the president of the real estate company association. Chiu Yi pointed out that during the production she did not worry about that and forgot about her own identity. She felt creativity was selfish. This time she was the executive producer, the producer, the actress, and wrote the music and lyrics of the theme song. The film investment was 20 million. Earlier overseas sales already covered the cost. She hoped to make more at the Hong Kong box office so she would make some money.

Earlier she and Conroy Chan Chi Chung were caught arguing on the streets. Chiu Yi honestly said that they were arguing which version should be sent to the Cannes Film Festival. Eason Chan Yik Shun also performed but he did not appear in the stills or the footage. Chiu Yi pointed out that Eason played a mystery person. They had a scene in who they went to a hotel. That day her husband was on the set but fell asleep because he was so tired. Chiu Yi pointed out that when she and Eason made NAKED AMBITION (HO CHING) they tried everything, and her husband was not interested in watching.

This film had many bloody murder scenes. She expressed that at first she was afraid that many scenes would be cut. Luckily now the film was only shortened. She would bring the DVD home for her father to watch. The film premiere will be tonight and she has invited her family and friends to attend. Earlier when the film was screened overseas three viewers fainted. Was she afraid that similar incidents would occur at the premiere? Chiu Yi pointed out that they probably would not, just in case each viewer would receive an emergency bag for nausea. She believed that would be a first in Hong Kong premieres. She even received jewelry sponsorship, which she joked she felt like she was wearing a house.
