The 29th Hong Kong International Film and TV Festival (FILMART) opened on the 17th of this month, and Media Asia Films held a reception at Central on the evening of the 18th. Media Asia media group boss Dr. Peter Lam Kin Ngok, Media Asia television program production (Hong Kong) Co. Ltd. managaing director Tommy Leung Ka Shu, the Federation of the Hong Kong Filmmakers president Louis Koo Tin Lok, Hong Kong Film Awards Best Film Editor Wong Hoi, New Director Award Lee Kwong Yiu, Nick Cheuk Yik Him, Lawrence Kan Kwan Chun, artists Natalie Hsu (Hui Yan Yee), ANSONBEAN, Hillary Lau, Evelyn Choi Wing Yan, Vian Lin Ka Wing, Anjaylia Chan Ka Bo, Lillian Ho Ka Lei, Hazel Lam Hei Tung, Maya Tsang Yui Tung, Fiona McLeish (Mak Siu Yu), Eliza Sam Lai Heung and Toby Leung Ching Ki were all present.

Hillary admitted that she has learned a lot from meeting many film directors and screenwriters at the party. She said, "The scene is too lively with too many people. Although I can't go too in depth one by one, but I am so happy to have the opportunity to introduce myself to everyone. Ultimately I don't have many works, and I am a new actor." She was a big fan of romance films and hoped to play the lead role in love stories. She said, "I am a person with a lot of emotions, but I only show it to my close friends. I really want to challenge myself to express it through movies. There are many kinds of love stories, and I hope to make a heart wrenching movie so that the audience will have a sense of understanding after watching it." The television game show that she has been a part of, BE ON GAME would move to th stage next month. Hillary revealed that there would be surprises. "I hope to interact with the audience more and make everyone happy this time. We have a lot of special performances. In short, in addition to singing and dancing, we would even add a few elements that are rarely seen on stage."

Trying hard to pursue his "dream of being an action actor", ANSONBEAN revealed that he has recently made a new discovery about himself. "Every time I complete a production project I would find myself with a new aspect, which feels very new and unpredictable. I am grateful for the opportunity to explore more possibilities every time. For example, in the recently aired drama series, because it was funny and what I was good at, I kept worrying as the shoot went on. The result was a good response and everyone liked it. It turned out to be funny, and made the audience happy. Even I thought it was funny when I watched it again, suddenly unlocking the comedy route." He hoped to focus on the "Action Movie" genre, but still make movies such as romance, comedy or suspense. In addition to practicing martial arts, ANSONBEAN also worked hard to study acting, especially learning to be "natural". Having worked with him on dramas, Hillary laughed, "Actually you are usually not natural!" ANSONBEAN admitted, "Whether I am filming on camera or talking to friends, my speech becomes unnatural because my brains are thinking about too much. I will try to improve that."
