The Hong Kong Entertainment Expo yesterday officially opened. Many film and television products went on display for this exhibit that will be filled with overseas buyers. Andy Lau Tak Wa, Sammi Cheng Sau Man, producer Johnnie To Kei Fung and director Wai Ka Fai's "box office golden team" film THE BLIND DETECTIVE (MAN TAM) received the most attention. When the trailers with its bloody scenes finished, Wa Jai lamented about the series of family murders and urged everyone to spend more time to understand those around them. Sammi even said that she was very frightened about becoming a mother.

The trailer that was shown at THE BLIND DETECTIVE press conference had its share of bloody scenes and chilling slogans like "shocking tragedy, hard to find remains" and "anonymous blind heart will kill", reminding people of the recent series of Hong Kong family murders. Wa Jai lamented when he watched the trailer, "I don't know if it was meant to be, after watching it I get very sentimental. I almost want to cry."

Wa Jai pointed out that this detective mystery reminded him of the recent family murders and thought that To Kei Fung and Wai Ka Fai had the foresight to bring this type of subject through a light and black comedy method to the audience. He said that the recent murders left him sighing. "Anyone would sense that there is a problem. Everyone should spend more time to understand those around them. Now there are many family organizations that would provide ways to communicate with children." What way would he communicate with his daughter? He said, "I still have awhile to go!"

Sammi said that before the family murders she already was afraid to have children. She admitted that she was very afraid of becoming a mother and having children, the area was very strange to her. Although she did not force herself to wish to be a good mother, with her religious beliefs she knew that a lot was beyond her grasp. She would wait for Heaven's arrangement. Did she and boyfriend Andy Hui Chi On have an understanding? She said, "I am not answering that today." She did not directly respond. When she saw how cute Wa Jai's daughter was, was Sammi motivated to have a child? She said that she would privately discuss that with Wa Jai. Earlier she gave baby clothing and shoes to Wa Jai's daughter. Wa Jai said, "They were very useful, but friends sent so much that we couldn't use them all in time. We gave some to Chin Kar Lok's daughter, friends and other organizations."

Sammi worked with Wai Jai again after 9 years and felt that they still had a lot of spark. Because they trusted each other, their performance was even more daring. Wa Jai agreed and praised that after Sammi rearranged her life she understood her needs even more. She was more enthusiastic and more involved about movies.
