Andy Lau Tak Wa's release GALLANTS (DA LUI TOI) won Best Picture and its actor Teddy Robin Kwan won Best Actor. Wa Jai was very happy when he received the news and congratulated the film's director, producer Lam Ka Tung and all of its actors. In particular he congratulated Teddy Robin Kwan. Wa Jai said that he was only an investor, Lam Ka Tung was the one who had the foresight to bring a good movie to the audience. He truly was happy for them and was proud of them. He hoped in the future even more investors would support Hong Kong film. As for Teddy Robin Kwan he was in Hainan. He was very surprised to win Best Actor and was very happy. He thanked everyone for their support. Producer Ka Tung also said that he was very happy. His direction was proven correct and he was encouraged. At least from now on finding investors would be easier, because earlier he truly ran into a lot of obstacles. He hoped for more films of this type to appear in the future. Speaking of the lack of Hong Kong actor succession, he said that he was looking for new faces as well. First though they had to learn some tradition and could not just "want fame without working for it".
