Best Actor Nick Cheung Ka Fai worked on a film on the streets at Central despite his injury. He joked that since his injury has not healed, he could only stand still for fight scenes. His co-star William Chan Wai Ting turned into a 100 meter flash and ran like mad until he was out of breath. Both were very professional.

Ka Fai earlier while working on the Emperor new film BAU LIT DIM (EXPLOSION POINT) injured his leg from a jump. Although he has already been treated and had appropriate rest, his injury still has not healed. The team would have to finish all of the shoot in Hong Kong before the middle of month then head to Malaysia for the location shoot, Ka Fai two days ago appeared at Central and shot the chase scenes that was halted earlier with co-star Chan Wai Ting.

Dressed in blue, Ka Fai still caught the eye in the crowd. As pedestrians and drivers recognized him, the intersection where the shoot took place was completely jammed. Some drivers in order to "chase stars" neglected safety, as they drove slowly and stood on the road to take photos. The team "loudly pleaded" many times to fight for time to finish the scene and to prevent any accident.

Ka Fai said, "Thank you to the team for changing the scene to accommodate my injury, so I wouldn't have to run. Actually if they want to stand still for the fight scene I would have no problem, but I can't run like mad. (Have you packed for Malaysia yet?) They still haven't confirmed the departure date. I only know that we would have to go there to shoot the ending scene, at least 'fight' for 6 days." He joked that the producer once worked in the waste land in Malaysia and ended up with a centipede bite that required him to be treated at a hospital. "He said that he arranged for me and (Shaun) Tam Chun Yin to duel in a cavern, each time I worked on his movies nothing good came from it, haha! I said it would be the best if we wouldn't have to go, changing the location to shoot in Sai Kung would be the best."

The day's "major scene" was on William. Under the command of the director, he immediately turned into the "100 meter flash" and ran all over the streets. To satisfy the camera angles, he repeated the shoot many times and went out of breath from running. Fans were on hand to cheer him on.
