The 2010 Miss Chinese International pageant took place last night in Tianjun. Raymond Lam Fung and TVB executive Elaine Lok Yi Ling attended and met with the media before the pageant to discuss Shaw executive Wong Ka Hei accusing Lam Fung of lacking film market and revealing Mona Fong Yat Wa criticized Eric Tsang Chi Wai's Lunar New Year film script as poor, unwilling to respond to the production.

Lam Fung said that he has not read the report and humbly said that this year was a start for him in film and thus he would accept all elders' opinions and work hard on himself. He also pointed out that PERFECT WEDDING (PO PO CHIU GAI YUN)'s box office has already exceeded 15 million. He has been in the business for over a decade and was already used to growing up in different noises. Ms. Lok handed him a folder and said that it was from Fong Yat Wa. Lam Fung opened it and was surprised to find a personally written letter from Ms. Fong. It said "don't be afraid of gossip, waves of good reviews, achieve good performance again." He was obviously touched and stressed that he was not displeased over Wong Ka Hei's comments. He would try to improve from elders' review of himself.

Has Lok Yi Ling asked executives not to drink anymore? She nodded and said that quitting drinking. Was Ms. Fong upset at Wong Ka Hei's comment? She said, "Every week we have a meeting. Ms. Fong talked about this with everyone. She wasn't upset, only thought that the matter was severe. Later she took Tsang Chi Wai's call and learned that the matter was not as such." Speaking of Ms. Fong criticizing Chi Wai's Lunar New Year film script as poor, Ms. Lok stressed that Ms. Lok and Chi Wai only met over. Ms. Fong also rarely participated in such matter and only asked Chi Wai to make a happy movie like before. As for the reason for the production delay, Ms. Lok pointed out that originally they wanted to make a story about a tour bus. Due to the Philippines hostage incident they switched to another story with Hong Kong emotions. When Chi Wai was selling the idea, Wong Ka Hei was not present. Ms. Lok also pointed out after the matter, Wong Ka Hei called Chi Wai to apologize. She said that she has known Wong Ka Hei for a long time and he liked to drink beer to relieve stress. Would she supporting Lam Fung? She certainly said, "Sure! Artists must be supported!"
