Wong Jing's YOUNG AND DANGEROUS RELOADED (GOO WAT JAI: GONG WU SUN DIT JUI) competed with THE GRANDMASTERS. He earlier online congratulated THE GRANDMASTERS for wrapping up but actually took a hidden jab at wong Kar Wai. He with a new director and a several million dollar production YOUNG AND DANGEROUS to battle the 30 million dollar production THE GRANDMASTERS. Wong Jing issued the challenge, "Nothing is guaranteed at the box office, wait and see!" THE GRANDMASTERS' Mainland box office of 30 million yuan was Wong Kar Wai's show of force against Wong Jing.

YOUNG AND DANGEROUS two nights ago held its premiere. Wong Jing was not worried about the confrontation with THE GRANDMASTERS. He felt that the films had different styles. "I never target any one colleague, I wish great box office for everyone. Wong Kar Wai and I have competed for years, People who like his work will continue to like it. People who dislike it won't easily change, like the YOUNG AND DANGEROUS audience. They won't steal each other's viewers." Wong Jing led the cast to three shows to promote. Jacqueline Chong Si Man's see through look successfully stole the spotlight from Winnie Leung Man Yi who had a topless performance in the film.

Stephen Chow Sing Chi in an interview responded to Wong Jing's accusation that he "preferred money", Sing yeh felt that good movies could make money and even said that he and Wong Jing were not too close. Wong Jing said, "That's right! We are very unfamiliar. We haven't seen each other for over 10 years. He is so rich, he has to like money very much to have money. As far as I know, very little of money came from movies. Most of it came from property speculation. I of course agree that only good movies can make money, but while making movies he can also speculate properties. Perhaps they share the same concept? The thinking of the wise won't be too far apart. I would watch both JOURNEY TO THE WEST (SAI YAU GONG MOR PIN) and THE GRANDMASTERS, but I won't invite people to watch my YOUNG AND DANGEROUS. Because inviting other people means I don't have confidence in my own movie."

Wong Jing admitted that Oscar Leung Lit Wai recently has more negative news and changed his mind about signing him to a 10 movie deal. He said, "Indeed I wanted to sign him to 10 movies, but recently he has too many troubles. He is better off signed on a per movie basis, he will be signed with the time is right. If he signs a contract, he will receive over 1 million as down payment. Would he have a chance for a raise on a per film basis? I feel that he is improving, as long as he is worth his value I am not worried. He was just as clueless as Chow Sing Chi back then, later he charged more and more."

Leung Lit Wai earlier filed a lawsuit against Kenny Wee (Wong Ho) but because it has already entered the legal process he was not at liberty to reveal more. "Thank you to many friends who say they are willing to lend me money for the lawsuit. I also received support from neighbors. Currently I can't predict how much the lawsuit will cost, I believe it will definitely be in the six figures. However for now I don't need to borrow money from anyone." Speaking of Wong Jing giving up the plan to sign him to a 10 film deal over the matter, Leung Lit Wai hoped that he would change his mind. However negotiations on a per film basis was better than a complete cancellation.

Law Chung Him did not know about Leung Lit Wai's contract cancellation. Would he ask Wong Jing to invest the 10 million on him? Law Chung Him said, "We are actors of different types, our developments are different. As partners we would be even better." Law Chung Him said that his rumored girlfriend Tavia Yeung Yi probably would support his film, but they have not decided whether to go together. Law Chung Him was very nervous about everyone's acceptance level for the "Brother Ho Nam" character, but he would not ask Yeung Yi's opinion for a masculine movie.

YOUNG AND DANGEROUS RELOADED has a category III and IIB versions. Two nights ago the premiere was for the category III version. Aside from foul language galore, Leung Man Yi even had a topless love scene. Paul Wong Koon Chung spilled his guts all over the floor as well.

Leung Man Yi said that watching her own bed scene for the first time, she felt embarrassed at the cinema. She said, "Luckily the result was decent, I breathed a sigh of relief. After the show (Jazz) Lam Chi Sin gave me a thumbs up. I felt very touched, this was encouraging." Was the chest close up too much? Leung Man Yi said, "Too much? Actually the love scene is just one of the selling points. As long as the visual looks good it's fine. Maybe the director saw how great my figure was and shot more!" He said that the set was cleared during the shoot. Before hand he and co-star Sammy Sum Chun Hin were very nervous and had to drink champagne to reduce stress.

Action director Philip Ng Won Lung was pleased with the result and hoped that friend Race Wong Yuen Ling and rumored girlfriend Linda Chung Ka Yun will show their support. Speaking of him comforting the heart broken Race, making Chung Ka Yun jealous and break up with him, Ng Won Lung clarified that his relationship with Chung Ka Yun remained the same.
