A Poon Choi Banquet was held at the Grand China Hotel in Cheung Sha Wan the night before for the movie THE UNWAVERING BROTHERHOOD (JAT JIK 3), which would be released on the 29th. Actors Bosco Wong Chung Chak, Louis Cheung Kai Chung, Angel Lam Chin Ting, Kenneth Lai Chun, Chu Tin and others attended. Cheung Kai Chung was envious of the superstar treatment Wong Chung Chak received when he went to Malaysia for promotions, and joked that the the responsibility for giving benefits should go to the one who was the fittest -- Mark Cheng Ho Nam.

The film company announced that the maximum ticket price was set at HK$60. Wong Chung Chak said that movies can be enjoyed by the people. Film companies and theater chains could offer discounts to neighbors. It was a good thing to support the Hong Kong economy. Cheung Kai Chung also agreed that stimulating the economy was definitely a good thing and could make people happy. They would work hard on audience appreciation events, hoping that more viewers will come to the theater to support them.

Speaking of Bosco's recent trip to Malaysia to promote the movie and people packed the streets, Cheung Kai Chung said that he was filming in Hong Kong and could not go with him. However, when he saw the clip, he felt that the scene was so epic. He envied Bosco for enjoying the superstar-like reception. Bosco said with a smile that it was indeed a well done. When the actors appeared in the center of Kuala Lumpur, they were not only welcomed with dragon and lion dances, but also dozens of men in black lining up on both sides. When people walked by they called him "big brother". Did he really feel like a superstar? Bosco replied with a smile, "They made it seem so real, but I'm just an actor!" Very popular in Malaysia, Bosco said that he has spoken with the team. With a good box office in Malaysia, he would go there to celebrate. Ticket scapling appeared during the premiere in Malaysia, which has not happened for a long time. When the 4th installment would start production in the future, they could go to Malaysia to shoot on the location and call it "JAT MA". Will they give benefits for a good box office performance? Cheung Kai Chung said with a smile, "I don't encourage it. It depends on the type of film and the actors. I leave the coercion and the inducement to the young actors. I have been in the industry for so long, I won't fall into the trap; but I would attend audience appreciation events." He smiled and assigned the welfare distribution to the person who was the fittest -- Mark Cheng Ho Nam. "I made a lot of movies, and I can't wear swimming trunks many times. I don't have any more abdominal muscles to show off. If I do, I would show my dermis and blood vessels. It would be too academic. Do I need to show my pores? No one would probably want to see that, showing people picture of your blood vessels, it's so perverted!"

As for hopes for a 4th installment, both said that the actors were getting better and better with each other as they filmed, and since the market was not good, they hoped that the boss would make more movies so that everyone would be able to work together. Since Bosco now was a boss, would he want to invest in movies or use his salary to invest? He stated that his investment was small business and his salary was not much. Who received more salary between him and Cheung Kai Chung? Cheung Kai Chung pointed out that Bosco's salary was higher and that he was a practical type. Bosco said, "Maybe I get a little more than him, but he makes up for it by working more!"

Recently, a "hidden camera" video was circulated on the Internet. Bosco was dissatisfied with the waiter in a restaurant in Malaysia and yelled at the waiter and manager when he was served the wrong beef chow fun. Sharp eyed people online saw that Bosco had a hidden microphone on his body and knew that the filming was taking place. They also joked that his acting was too excessive when he got angry. However, some also believed it to be true and thought he had a bad attitude towards the waiters. Yesterday, the Malaysian distribution company of THE UNWAVERING BROTHERHOOD issued a statement to clarify and released the complete video, saying that the short film was shot for publicity and Bosco had no intention of deceiving anyone.
