The Peter Chan Ho Sun directed inspirational comedy AMERICAN DREAM IN CHINA (JUNG GOK SIN SUN) yesterday held a "graduation ceremony" in Beijing. Actors Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Tong Dawei and Du Juan put on graduation gowns, as "class president" Chan Ho Sun presented them with "diplomas". The event also announced that the film shoots in Tianjin, Beijing and New York have been completed. The actors excitedly tossed their caps.

At the "graduation", class president Chan Ho Sun graded Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Tong Dawei's English quality. He pointed out that in the film Deng Chao's English was the best, Tong Dawei's English was natural, off screen Huang Xiaoming's English was the best. Chan Ho Sun continued, AMERICAN DREAM IN CHINA was his 13th class because this was his 13th film. It was also the class with the best students and the best grades.

Huang Xaioming said that the happiest part of being an actor was not being recognized, so everyone would remember the character Cheng Dongqing and forgot Huang Xiaoming. "China's tallest school flower" Du Juan made her big screen debut. She said that she was very lucky to be able to take part in the production and to have the chance to shape the character of Su Mei. Huang Xiaoming also pointed out that his character would not be more lame. For two months he ate and got fat, later he still needed a fake belly. Huang Xiaoming in the film played an English teacher. He said that he expected everyone to be concerned with his English level. He said, "Why do we have to learn English? Maybe because America is very strong. I appreciate everyone for making fun of me. All of the jokes are motivations for my improvement."

Deng Chao's character lived in the U.S. for ten years, but his English was just worrying. His way of learning English was practice, as he had professionals around him to teach him. Chan Ho Sun also praised Du Juan's resemblance to Faye Wong, with a feeling of beyond reach and keeping people at bay.
