The Dante Lam Chiu Yin directed movie OPERATION HADAL held a friend preview screening the night before. The Secretary for Security Chris Tang Ping Keung and his wife, Hong Kong Tourism Bureau Chairman Peter Lam Kin Ngok, Nick Cheung Ka Fai, Simon Yam Tat Wah and others all attended. Having worked closely with Lam Chiu Yin, Cheung Ka Fai said with a smile that even if a typhoon hit, he must support his old friend. "Otherwise I wouldn't even be considered a person." Lam Chiu Yin revealed that UNBEATABLE 2 planned to start filming early next year and announced that Peng Yuyan would return. Cheung Ka Fai hoped to make a new breakthrough, and Yam Tat Wah recommended himself to participate.

Lam Chiu Yin said that every time he met Cheung Ka Fai they would never run out of topics to talk about. He even revealed that he would start filming the sequel to the classic movie UNBEATABLE (GIK JIN), Cheung Ka Fai admitted that this challenge far exceeded the first installment. "The movie was so influential back then, and the relationship and the growth process between the characters have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Breaking through the previous work would be extremely difficult." Hera Chan Hiu Wah, Ben Yuen Wai Ho, Jeana Ho Pui Yu, etc. also showed up to support.

When asked if Ka Fai would have to train hard again, he smiled and said, "I can do whatever you want, but I just can't train." Ka Fai explained that even he got back into shape, it would have lost freshness to the audience. He said, "What the audience appreciates is the inspirational spirit the movie conveys, which is also the most difficult place to break through. If I have to train, I can use AI with the current technology. Just find a big guy and put my head on it."

Lam Chiu Yin jokingly said that if Ka Fai is unwilling to train, he would be a stand-in; but he would take a while to achieve results so he would not be able to make it in time to start filming this year. He hoped to make it happen early next year. As for whether Peng Yuyan would return to UNBEATABLE 2, Lam Chiu Yin said that he would definitely and has already informed him. Ka Fai joked, "Leave the matter of muscle training to Peng Yuyan."

Yam Tak Wah said that he has not worked with director Lam Chiu Yin for many years, and he was also interested in participating in UNBEATABLE 2. He said, "If there is a suitable role I will definitely participate. I tried to gain 50 pounds before, and I tried to lose weight and train bigger when I was filming PTU, now I weigh less than when I was in PTU." Ho Pui Yu said that she has already recommended herself to director Lam Chiu Yin. What would be the bottom line of her performance? She smiled and said, "I am a person who can't get back to be thin from being fat, so I can't gain weight. Aside from shaving my head, I can do anything." Yam Tat Wah encouraged Ho Pui Yu when he heard this, believing that her shaved head would be very eye-catching. "Because she has a good silhouette, if she shaves her head she will be very Zen. She must be a role with a lot of character in the film."
