The Pang Ho Cheung directed, Chapman To Man Jat starred film VULGARIA (DAI JOOK HEI KET) recently was criticized as vulgar culture. As a film investor, Albert Yeung Sau Sing two nights ago admitted that he has not watched this film but supported To Man Jat. "Ah Jat belongs to my company, in the future he will make even more movies. He will plan his own projects, later we will hold a press conference to announce them." Yeung Sau Sing revealed that at first Ah Jat recommended VULGARIA to him, but in the end they were unable to work together. He explained, "At first Ah Jat suggested this film, I only thought that the subject was not suitable for the company (Emperor)'s style. Thus we weren't able to make it. The company has never made category III film or nude scenes. It wouldn't company vulgar subjects like toilet humor. So VULGARIA fell to the hands of another film company to invest. I didn't feel any regret at all. Even though some outside slammed this movie, the fact is this film was both a critical and commercial hit. Some felt that vulgar was unimportant because movies had to entertain everyone."
