THE SPARRING PARTNER (JING YI WUI LONG) team produced, Tam Kwong Yuen directed, Philip Yung Tsz Kwong produced film FAT MAI CHONG (LEGAL HIDE AND SEEK) was heating up in production. The film was based on the corpse-hiding case in a cardboard box that shocked the city in 1974. In addition to Edan Lui Cheuk On, the long-absent actor Isabella Leong Lok Si, Patrick Tam Yu Man, Alfred Cheung Kin Ting, Sabrina Ng Bing, Will Or Wai Lam, Sabrina Cheung Man Sha, Lung Siu Kwan and Jo Koo (Kuk Cho Lam) also performed in the strong cast. After days of visiting the location shoots, in addition to the appearance of Edan played younger version of Auyeung Bing Keung, the costumes of the actors have also been exposed one after another.
The story reportedly began in the 1970s. Edan played the younger version of Auyeung Bing Keung, and Sabrina Ng Bing played the female victim in the case. When Edan attended an event at the end of May, he revealed that the character in the new film would have several age group performances, and also a lot of emotional scenes that would be very challenging. Around 4pm a few days ago, Edan was seen in Aberdeen, Hong Kong for a location shoot for the movie. His manager, Sister Fa, was present for the whole process. The production location also had quite a full lineup. The crew occupied almost half of the street. In addition to renting a few shops and cafes to set up photography equipment, a diner was constructed for the shoot. The shoot mainly took place in a diner that day. Edan appeared in a retro outfit, a black shirt and trousers paired with a purple jacket. The look was quite breakthrough. The most eye-catching was Edan's 70s hairstyle, he wore a long-haired wig with "drips" (side burns) on both sides, which was full of a mobster flavor.
During the scene it was raining heavily, so the crew was seen carrying a big hose to sprinkle water while Edan braved the rain and dragged Ah Bing into the diner. During the break, Edan, who has always been the "fun guy", also talked and laughed with the staff and made the atmosphere very happy. The third disbandment of the support club has not affected his mood.
In addition, the team recently went to Shau Kei Wan for a location shoot. Around 3 PM, Isabella Leong Lok Si, Will Or Wai Lam, Sabrina Cheung Man Sha, Lung Siu Kwan, Patrick Tam Yiu Man, Jo Koo (Kuk Cho Lam), Alfred Cheung Kin Ting and others appeared. The entire tram terminus was sealed up with a giant blue screen on Main Street East and decorated to match the plot of the movie to become the "Happy Valley Terminal". Two more shops were rented and turned into the scene of the murder "Shui Lam Ice Cream Shop". The production was meticulous and serious. The scene being shot that day was mainly about the judge leading a team of lawyers from both the prosecution and the defense and jurors to inspect the ice cream shop, then moved a large carton in and out to re-enact the case. During the period, Leong Lok Si appeared in a beige Chinese qipao and a suit jacket. She had been observing the re-enactment of the case in the crowd, and once got so emotional that she got choked up. She was probably playing the role of a suspect or a family member of the victim. While waiting to take her mark, Leong Lok Si, who has not been seen for a long time, was in a good mood. She was talking and laughing with Tam Yiu Man with her arm on his shoulder, showing a relaxed attitude. In appearance she was in rather good shape; when Tam Yiu Man met a passerby who asked for a photo, he responded to all requests and was very friendly to the people. During his break, Or Wai Lam often held and played with a cute little sister with an abundance of fatherly love.
The corpse-in-a-cardboard box case, one of the "Top Ten Mysterious Cases in Hong Kong", has been adapted into film and television works many times. In addition to the 1993 Simon Yam Tat Wa and Cecilia Yip Tung film THE FINAL JUDGEMENT, in the same year was also the Liu Wai Hung and Sheung Tin Ngor starred television movie JUSTICE IS BLIND. After 30 years, it has been remade into a movie again. A recent episode of the TVB news program BE OUR GUESS revealed that Auyeung Bing Keung passed away due to illness in 2022 at the age of 74.
