The film WARRIORS OF FUTURE (MING YUT JIN GEI) after 4 days in release passed the HK$ 20 million mark as of two days ago (the 28th) with HK$ 21,711,526. Two days ago its single day Hong Kong box office even reached HK$ 6 million.

WARRIORS OF FUTURE received the audience support. The film's producer and star Louis Koo Tin Lok two days ago along with director Ng Yuen Fai, actors Philip Keung Ho Man, Ng Siu Hin, and the film theme song TOMORROW OF TOMORROW's performers ANSONBEAN and Winka@COLLAR, visited many cinemas for audience appreciation events, personally thanked viewers who went to see WARRIORS OF FUTURE. Johnnie To Kei Fung even booked a show to support the film. Sammo Hung Kam Bo, Lam Suet and others also personally showed their support. Goo Jai and director Ng Yuen Fai before the audience appreciation event even opened bottles of champagne to celebrate. Goo Jai joked, It's like a concert.  Thank you everyone for your support, here I thank so many Mrs. Koo.  I hope everyone would like this movie, please watch it a few more times."

Goo Jai introduced Big Brother Big Hung Kam Bo as his next film BACK TO THE PAST (CHUM CHUN GEI)'s martial art director. He even gave special thanks to To Kei Fung. "The birth of WARRIORS OF FUTURE more or less was related to To Sir, because of what he said I started my own company. At the time it didn't start as a film company but as a special effects company. One day after we went to dinner after a film festival, he said to me, 'we have to make Hong Kong movies that belong to us, movies that would rely on special effects.'" At the time Goo Jai was stunned after hearing, thinking that filmmaking has never used special effects but To Sir instead said that future movies must have special effects, then started step by step to today. Goo Jai sincerely said, "Thank you To Sir." To Kei Fung added, "I indeed felt that future movies would have a lot of variety, especially in special effect development they would be endless. On the silver screen many things that no one would expect would appear."
