Johnnie To Kei Fung and the LIFE WITHOUT PRINCIPLE (DUET MING GUM) theme song performer Yue Mei and stock analyst Agnes Wu Man Ching two days ago attended the City University film forum and discussed the global financial market with university students.  Ah To pointed out that this time he made the stock market his topic in hopes of inviting Wu Man Ching to watch it, he did not expect her to watch it before the forum.  Wu Man Ching even came on stage to participate in the discussion, but she grabbed the microphone and even changed the subject.  She instructed the university students, reminded the new generation against forgetting their dream and only wanted to get into the banking industry for a quick buck.  Ah To could not get a word in edge wise as the film forum turned into an investment forum.

LIFE WITHOUT PRINCIPLE took three years to make.  He pointed out that this film was an exercise that he could do whenever he liked, different from movies that are purely for profit.  Those movies had someone pushing them from behind and would be made faster.  The film added a Putonghua speaking character.  Ah To pointed out that now on the streets many are speaking Putonghua, he hoped to bring about the message that the world is changing.
