The Bowie Tsang Po Yee produced, starred and narrated and her boyfriend Lin Mingqian directed documentary style film DEAR BLACK SHEEP (GAU WOON LAI MUK) charity screening took place two nights ago. In addition to the chairmen of CFCFF Eric Tsang Chi Wai, Tsang Bo Yee and Lam Mingqian, members of Wai Yin Association Heidi Chu Hoi Ting, Priscilla Chi Doi Doi, Lisa Ch'ng Sze Ming and Nicole Leung Lai Kiu, as well as MIDLIFE SING AND SHINE's Kimman Wong, Sean Sim Chung Yin, Gary Chiu Cheun Sing and Liu Yang also attended the event to support the charity screening. Another producer of the film, Tsang Po Yee's cousin Gary Tsang Kwok Chun and cousin Liu Sun Hei also appeared to talk about their cancer experience.

Tsang Chi Wai revealed that his was a cancer family, with his brother, wife, sister and cousin-in-law all have suffered from cancer one after another. He and his daughter Po Yee would have regular physical examinations. He said that Po Yee spent 4 years filming this documentary, which included their family's experience of cancer, how to face and deal with it, and then share it with everyone. Tsang Po Yee admitted that the filming process was indeed difficult. "I started filming in 2019 and filmed in Taiwan and the United States for half a year, but I had to stop filming due to the pandemic; this time the documentary was shot according the flow of life. During the filming my cousin (film producer) and his wife both suffered from cancer, so before filming what I thought would be a medical discussion finally became a documentary about reconciliation with life." Did Chi Wai have any advice as a father? Po Yee laughed and said that her father was always very busy, and Chi Wai also replied with a smile, "No need to ask, my brother, wife, sister and many family members have experienced it." This documentary raise funds for the CFCF Foundation, Chi Wai felt that money was not the most important. Since the film has been released in Taiwan for half a year, he would charter many screenings in the future when it would be released in Hong Kong. He hoped to share it with more people. As for Po Yee's participation in front of and behind the scenes, she bluntly said that the process was hard to take. "I really cried while filming. On the night before my cousin's wife died, I wanted to go to the hospital to record the process. I asked myself whether I should visit as the documentarian or a relative, which was really difficult to grasp. When it came to dubbing, I couldn't help but cried myself hoarse every time I reached this part. That part was the most sympathetic, because the grief of experiencing the loss of a loved one had to be put down again. I hope everyone will receive the gift after watching it."

In addition, Chi Wai knew that Bo Yi would stay in Hong Kong for two more days to accompany him to dinner to celebrate Father's Day. Speaking of Father's Day this year, his future son-in-law Lin Mingqian would celebrate with him. Chi Wai smiled and pointed out that he has seen his future son-in-law many times. The reporter asked him if he would urge his daughter to get married as soon as possible? He said, "I can't get her to move!" Bo Yi smiled and said, "I am happy everyday now. I will get married if I need to in the future, but not getting married does not mean that I don't cherish it."
