The 49 year old Michelle Yeoh (Yeung Chi King) received the 7th Asian Film Award's Excellence in Asian Cinema Award. Last year she accepted the honor. She happily revealed that she was seriously considering marrying her French boyfriend Jean Todt and happy to have run into someone she loves. Enthusiastic about making movies she said that she would not retire. She was waiting for the CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON 2 script. Now the conditions for her taking a role was a great director and a great script.

Last night Yeung Chi King was very happy to receive the award. Since her career began in Hong Kong, winning an award here was very meaningful and quite a honor. Speaking of marriage, she had good news. "We are picking a date. (Will you wed this year?) I am thinking about it, seriously considering it. Actually he has already proposed many times. As a woman, I am truly very happy to have someone who loves me so much. However I have been too busy, I haven't officially thought about what type of wedding to have. Right now first we will pick a date. The wedding location will definitely be in Malaysia." Did her elderly father want to see his daughter's wedding? She nodded.

Yeung Chi King has made many Hollywood films, when will she return to Hong Kong to make a movie? She said that she would like to make a Hong Kong Film and was very familiar with the environment. Will she accept CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON 2 (NGOR FU CHONG LUNG 2)? She said that she was waiting for the script. He said, "Now when I choose a movie, it's due to either a great director or a great script." She has been in contact with Ang Lee and congratulated him on his Oscar.

Last night Max Zhang Jun, Makiko Watanabe, Peter Lam Kin Ngok and others attended Yeung Chi Wai's celebration. Zhang Jun was happy for Yeung Chi King. Before joining the business he has already seen many of her action films. He hoped to have a chance to work with her later. With his rising popularity from THE GRANDMASTERS (YUT DOI JUNG SI), has his workload increased? He admitted that he has many offers and so far he has not started work yet. First he would take time to be with his wife Ada Choi Siu Fun and their daughter. He revealed that Choi Siu Fun could give birth at any minute, the doctor said that her condition was great and they probably would have a Cesarean birth. Originally they wanted to have a natural birth with their first child, but she could not for a long time. The surgery was safer.
