The Peter Chan Ho Sun directed film WU XIA will open next month. Wai Ying Hung has been away from the "fighting star" ranks for eight years. This time for WU XIA she returned to her former profession. Siu Hung honestly said that she had a "return to form" feel. She said that she has not made an action film in a long time. This time she felt as though she belonged to the action world and was able to put her skills on display. On the second day of the shoot, Donnie Yen Chi Tan praised "Sister Hung indeed is a blade that hasn't aged". Of course she truly was happy to hear. Siu Hung pointed out that for many years she exercised and trained to have her agility today.

Chan Ho Sun pointed out that Siu Hung has not made an action film in a long time, at first he was very worried. Yet by the second day of the shoot he was already relaxed. As the action director, Chi Tan also designed many exciting fight scenes. The rooftop duel was memorable for Siu Hung. She pointed out that Chi Tan was very demanding and designed many exciting fight scenes. The rooftop fight scene ran into rain, which made the roof tiles very slippery and made running on them very dangerous. Luckily they had no severe injury. Everyday after work though aches and pains were inevitable.

On the day of the shoot, Chi Tan considered how dangerous the rooftop fight would be in the poor condition. However Chan Ho Sun thought the result would be very pretty and persuaded Chi Tan and Siu Hung. Finally despite a lack of practice they gave it a try. The result was unexpectedly good. Wai Ying Hung and Yen Chi Tan actually have known each other for several decades. Siu Hung already knew Chi Tan when he was 11 or 12 because at the time Chi Tan's mother was her mentor of weapons. At the time she already thought Chi Tan was smart and obedient.
