Director Andrew Lau Wai Keung yesterday celebrates his 54th birthday in Sai Kung. Outside the venue was a FROM VEGAS TO MACAU (DOH SING FUNG WON) poster but his photo replaced Chow Yun Fat and Nicholas Tse Ting Fung and changed like "Sun Yut Fung Won" (birthday storm), "Silly Keung X Lau Keung most liked team up", "beyond cool birthday celebration". He and his wife stood next to the poster for photos. He did not mind being called "Silly Keung" at all, joking that this nickname began as early as INFERNAL AFFAIRS (MO GAN DOH).

Many industry friends attended like Dior Cheng Yi Kin and his wife Yoyo Mung Ka Wai, Donnie Yen Chi Tan and his wife Cissy Wang, Anthony Wong Chau Sun, Sandra Ng Kwan Yu, Chen Chen, and Wong Jing. He prepared about 10 cases of wine for guests but he did not want to go home drunk. Lau Wai Keung's birthday wish was for good health and happiness. Work wise he would continue to work with Wong Jing, planning the FROM VEGAS TO MACAU sequel with the original team. Will he include Chapman To Man Chak? He said, "I am not saying just yet."

Cheng Yi Kin and Mung Ka Wai held hands as they arrived, but when they saw reporters they awkwardly rushed inside. What gift did he get for Lau Wai Keung? Ekin said, "Two bunches of bananas (empty handed)." Chan Sin Chi brought two bottles of wine, one of which was from Leon Lai Ming who could not attend due to work.

Yen Chi Tan every year would attend Lau Wai Keung's birthday and joked that Lau Wai Keung was another year younger, which had to be celebrated. Would he be interested in recommending himself for the FROM VEGAS TO MACAU sequel? He said, "I don't know how to gamble, let me ask him. (Would you have time to make it?) Let's see first!" Wong Chau Sun lately has been busy with a play rehearsal and did not know whether he and Lau Wai Kung will have a chance to work together.
