Eric Tsang Chi Wai and Jacky Cheung Hok Yau yesterday held a press conference at the Performing Artist Guild. The Anita Mui memorial concert on December 30 made HK$4,770,180 from ticket sales. After expenses, HK$360,089 remained. With Chi Wai and Hok Yau's personal donations, HK$500,000 would be donated to charity. They at the press conference officially presented a HK$500,000 check to the Children's Cancer Foundation, Hok Yau said, "Thank you to the in front and behind the scene siblings for their assistance, this time was a very successful performance that I consider is a great answer to Ah Mui."

Chi Wai described this performance as very complete. He said, "Hok Yau has always been picky, but this time he was pleased. It was very complete and very successful. Every artist had a lot of fun, the outside response was great, the most important was everyone's recognition of the entire event. This point was the most important." Hok Yau and Chi Wai said that they have never thought that the concert would make money. Hok Yau said, "Originally we planned to lose a little. Because I had no concept at all about the concert cost numbers, if we didn't sell tickets everyone would have to put up a million to cover the cost. Now with ticket sales we made a little. The entire event was very complete." They revealed that they would not release a DVD. The concert after editing would only be sent to artist friends who performed as a memento; Mother Mui would definitely receive one and knew that the proceed would be donated to charity.

Speaking of Chi Wai's photo with a sexy woman with tattoo in Malaysia becoming a magazine cover, Hok Yau joked, "Did someone finally catch him?" Chi Wai said that he did not know about the report and had to find out more before responding.

As for a fortune teller's reminder to Jackie Chan that he should be careful with his flights between 2016 and 2017 due to a chance for accident, Chi Wai said, "Not flying? Why don't you tell him to not walk! Everyone says something different, with his personality he definitely won't remember. Thus I am against face reading, after hearing you would always have a thorn in your heart. Psychics always like to be tied with celebrities."
