The Danny Pang Fat directed, Eddie Cheung Siu Fai, Venus Wong Man Yi, Helena Law Lan and others starred movie RE BORN (HUNG SUM YU) held its premiere at Elements last night. Lead actor Cheung Siu Fai mobilized his whole family for support, and his daughter Twiggy Cheung Cheuk Chi served as the emcee of the event. The lead actress Wong Man Yi appeared with her director husband Derek Tsang Kwok Cheung. Cheung Siu Fai's daughter is studying for a bachelor's degree in film and television, intends to be behind the scenes and implement a father-daughter team in the future!

Pang Fat was interviewed with Cheung Siu Fai and Wong Man Yi. The film will be released next week, and Pang Fat described the premiere of the film as like giving birth to a son. It is born!

In the film Cheung Siu Fai and Wong Man Yi played husband and wife. He pointed out that Wong Man Yi could not put on pretty makeup in the film as she had to acting like a housewife. "Actually she is very beautiful in person; the director is the one who made her that way." Wong Man Yi smiled and pointed out that her husband has also seen her appearance when he watched the film, and said that it was very different from the wife he usually saw. He was looking forward to seeing her performance very much.

The reporter asked Wong Man Yi, did he get her husband Derek Tsang Kwok Cheung to teach her acting beforehand? She said: "I don't need to. There is a director to teach, there is no need to rehearse with my husband. There are already good co-stars and directors in the film. These are all sincere words, unless it is a bed scene I have never filmed before. My husband as a director would instruct me how to deal with it, I will accept it, and I would accept that. He is very professional in this regard."

Speaking of a lot of heart-wrenching plots in the film, Was Cheung Siu Fai able to withdraw from the role during filming? He said, "I don't have time to withdraw during filming, as I have to rush to the shoot every day. After filming I would spend a little time reading the script at most. Because the movie takes a lot of brain power and energy, you can't pull away from the role during filming. You have to finish filming before you are able to." As for his daughter being the emcee, he pointed out that his daughter came for internships. In addition she is studying film courses overseas, so he wanted his family to give advice after watching the film. Would Pang Fat accept her as a female apprentices? He smiled and said, "I have never accepted a female apprentice. It would depend on fate, let's how big the lai see would be." Cheung Siu Fai also said that although his daughter has acted, she wanted to be behind the scenes more than in front of the camera.

Speaking of the recent downturn in the film market, was Pang Fat worried about the box office? He said, "I don't need to worry because with fewer and fewer theaters now I can't think about it; I can only work as hard as I can." Cheung Siu Fai and Wong Man Yi said in unison that if there would be any audience appreciation screenings, they would definitely cooperate. Because opportunities to make film at present have been few, they must make time to thank the audience when they are able to have a picture on the screen. Wong Man Yi pointed out that when going to the theater to thank and interact with the audience, the actors would be happy to find out everyone's reaction in real time. When Pang Fat was asked about his wife's condition, he replied "OK".

Cheung Siu Fai's daughter Twiggy Cheung Cheuk Chi served as the emcee of the movie premiere for the first time, and her performance was calm and had a commanding presence. Twiggy said with a smile, "I just came back from the UK, it's like supporting my father for me. I have never been an emcee, so I am so nervous!" Twiggy studied film in the UK, would she plan to work with Cheung Siu Fai as a father and daughter team in the future? "Sometimes I need to do homework and write scripts, Daddy would occasionally help me and teach me how to write a good script and what good acting is. Conceptually I have been working with Daddy for a long time!" Said to be resembling Linda Chung Ka Yan, Twiggy smiled and said, "Chung Ka Yan is so beautiful, and her acting skills are excellent. Now I still watch her TV series, of course I am happy!" Twiggy did not rule out working with Chung Ka Yan in the future, and then invite her father Cheung Siu Fai to work on good works together!

RE BORN would be Fabienne Kwaan Fung Hing's film debut, and her Papa Eddie Kwan Lai Kit was present to show his support. Kwai Lai Kit praised her daughter's performance in the film, and revealed that he did not accompany her to work. Did he show his daughter a few tricks? He laughed and said that he was the one who needed to learn instead. Making her film debut with a ghost movie, Kwan Fung Hing felt that it was very fresh and admitted that making movies and dramas were very different. Kwan Fung Hing revealed earlier that she has brought her former Hong Kong rugby player boyfriend Hugo Chui Ho Ching to meet her parents. When asked about this, Kwan Lai Kit played dumb and asked, "Have you been dating?" Then he ducked away for a group photo but returned to continue the interview. When asked about his impression of his daughter's boyfriend, he said, "If my daughter is OK, I'm OK. I'm very passive, I look to Mommy, Mommy is in charge." Kwan Fung Hing said that Mama left the decision for her to make, saying that her parents have always been very democratic. She admitted that she had a stable relationship with her boyfriend. Would they be suitable for flash marriage? Kwan Lai Kit immediately asked, "Huh! Really? I am happy." Kwan Fung Hing smiled and said that she would not scare Papa, perhaps she might not be married after ten years and would leave it up to fun. Kwan Lai Kit admitted that he would be reluctant for his daughter to wed.
