Yesterday Mag Lam Yun Tung began work with "young model" Phoebe Hui Wing and Terence Siufay on the holiday film I LOVE HONG KONG. Mag and Hui Wing appeared in Lolita maid costumes as they played online game women. Siufay played an ad company employee. In the story Mag did not understand how to pose and could not attract photographers. Siufay could not help but show her. Mag at first thought Siufay wanted her to take off her clothes and be sexy, later when she realized that he was teaching her the killer poses and relaxed. In the city she made cute poses. For her first film Mag performed decently and had no bad take. Mag said that she normally would not make young model poses for pictures, even with self pictures. At most she would pose with friends.

Mag thanked the company for giving her a chance to learn. After reading the story she thought it was fresh. Later she will work with Sandra Ng Kwan Yu. She said, "Ng Kwan Yu is a great actress. Before working together I felt the pressure, I was very afraid of dragging her down." Because of school, the production had to accommodate to her holiday schedule.

Siufay wore an orange and green costume that was somewhat "effeminate". After arriving on the set he found out that his co-star was Mag.

Wong Kar Wai's first kung fu film THE GRANDMASTERS (YUT DOI JUNG SI) is still in production. The film company has kept cast costumes and content confidential. The first two film posters will be unveiled at Los Angeles' American Film Market on November 1. The costumes of Tony Leung Chiu Wai who played Wing Chun master Ip Man in the film and lead actress Zhang Ziyi appeared for the first time and immediately became the focus of the foreign media.

In it Wai Jai would a white straw hat and long black coat in the night rain. The foreign media were very interested in his look and even described it as the birth of a Chinese Darth Vader. THE GRANDMASTERS' film introduction cover had a Zhang Ziyi in the midst of the eight diagram palm. Her eyes were full of self confidence. Foreign media pointed out that in a white straw hat, Ip Man was completely different from the image of Ip Man that has appeared in films before. Everyone was the most surprised that without any kung fu background Wai Jai actually had unspeakable kung fu power.

Wong Kar Wai fans could not wait to put the poster online and received a lot of responses. Some online even compared Leung Chiu Wai's Ip Man look and Zhang Ziyi's heroine feel with classic American comic book super heroes, saying that the U.S. had Superman, Spider-Man, Iron Man, Catwoman, Ip Man in the poster definitely was China's super hero. Some even suggested making Ip Man's English name into Yeah Man in order to be a part of this group of super heroes.

Since the film started production, everyone has been the most curious about Wai Jai's abilities. After a year of training, Wai Jai's figure could be seen on the poster for the first time. Even foreign media described Wai Jai as radiant. The film's action director Yuen Woo Ping even described Wai Jai's current condition as "the peak". He said that he never worried about his agility because Wai Jai had a high ability to comprehend and absorb quickly. Although he and Donnie Yen Chi Tan played the same character but they each had their own style. He even pointed out that Wai Jai's shape looked better than Chi Tan. The most unexpected was Wai Jai's powerful kicks. He absolutely had a talent for action films.

Wai Jai in the past year suffered a lot too. Responsible for instructing, Wing Chun Grand Master Ip Man's disciple Duncan Leung Siu Hung admired Wai Jai's spirit to overcome hardship. He pointed out that Wai Jai's progress was slower than the average student, half a year more than expected. During the period he stopped training for awhile due to his arm injury. However he recovered and returned to form very quickly. Unlike Yen Chi Tan who had a kung fu background, Wai Jai had an advantage that Yen Chi Tan did not have. He was able to start from zero like a blank piece of paper. Wai Jai gradually and clearly absorbed the spirit of Wing Chun kung fu completely. Every one of Wai Jai's moves now is very naturally convincing, whether punching or with a staff he was able to perform the Wing Chun school feel. He also pointed out that director Wong Kar Wai at first asked Wai Jai to truly spend time to train and made him
understand that slow and steady wins the race.

In the film Chrissie Chau Sau Na and Jiang Luxia played a 100 year old pretty vampire and vampire hunter. Although this romance was not clear cut, but one look and one touch of the face hinted their relationship as extraordinary. In a bed scene, Chau Sau Na had to bite Jiang Luxia on the neck. Finally Chau Sau Na really bit Jiang Luxia's neck and even left teeth marks.

In the story Jiang Luxia asked Chau Sau Na to bite her and turn her into a vampire in order for her to defeat vampire elder Yuen Wah. For realism, Chau Sau Na truly bit. However because she bit too hard, she injured Jiang Luxia's neck and made her scream. Then a small bite mark was found on her neck. Chau Sau Na immediately apologized to Jiang Luxia, but the director was very satisfied with this shot. The crew joked that Jiang Luxia had a "curry chicken" (hickey). At first she did not understand and thought everyone was asking her to eat curry chicken. Later Chau Sau Na explained the meaning to her. Later she joked with Chau Sau Na, "Thank you for treating me to curry chicken."

They also had a bed scene when they exchanged intimate looks. Chau Sau Na pointed out that in the film their relationship was ambiguous, it was also her first same sex romantic scene. She also praised Jiang Luxia as very attentive. Although she looked tough she was very gentle inside. She was even gentler and more feminine than herself. Jiang Luxia joked that in the film she and Chau Sau Na never had any relationship that exceeded friendship but the emotions were complex. She did not resist lesbian friends because she had some. Actually they were no different from ordinary people. Because she always liked short hair she has been mistaken for a lesbian. She said that actually she liked to dress up too. She would not randomly find a boyfriend to dispel homosexual rumors. As for Chau Sau Na trying to achieve fame with her figure, Jiang Luxia said that some in the Mainland knew her. She thought that show business should have different styles. Chau Sau Na was very professional and with her good figure she had no reason to hide it.

Wong Pak Ming recently invited Cecilia Cheung Pak Chi to work on his Lunar New Year film ALL'S WELL ENDS WELL 2011 (JUI KEUNG HEI SI). He pointed out that the film will start production next year. Pak Chi was in great shape. About Pak Chi's supposed 15 million salary, Wong Pak Ming said that he did not want to publicize actor prices. It was reasonable and well worth the price. He said that early in the year he thought Sandra Ng Kwan Yu was pregnant, he pointed out that two years ago when he asked her to make a movie, he ruined her motherhood plan. Thus this time he did not dare to ask again. Reportedly Derek Yee Tung Sing was at odds with Wong Pak Ming over the first film of Pak Chi's comeback.

Last year his Lunar New Year film clashed with Eric Tsang Chi Wai's and Tsang Chi Wai won. Wong Pak Ming joked that let him have his glory. He joked, "I already said that Chi Wa was jealous. When I made a holiday film, he followed suit. Every year he is fighting for the bowl, but it doesn't matter though. We make money together, whoever wins or loses doesn't matter. He has the support of such a big television station he definitely will win."

Bruce Lee's brother Robert Lee Chun Fai recalled Bruce Lee had more than one woman who would like to dance with him, but in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding Bruce Lee decided not to choose any woman to be a dance companion.

loving face. "It wasn't easy to complete this scene. I immediately opened up my shirt to see, my chest had two red marks!" Dou Xiao said.

Chi Wai conducted an analysis afterward and decided against making it. Wong Ka Hei pointed out that Chi Wai felt if the film was made and became a hit, it was an insult to the boss. If it performed poorly, the entire production team had no value to exist. Thus Chi Wai said that the smartest way was not to make it. Wong Ka Hei said that he has also written a letter to Chi Wai to explain to him that if he gave up the production, everyone would suffer even greater losses. Since the cinemas have already been scheduled, if the film was not made then the investment would be lost. He also pointed out that the boss' words could be treated as encouragement for everyone. Chi Wai responded to him and said that he was very pleased to see the letter. He even joked that he would frame the letter, now Chi Wai has decided to continue to make this film. As for PERFECT WEDDING's decent performance, he was very pleased.
