The movie CESIUM FALLOUT (FUN SING) since its release on November 1st, in 10 days its box office has exceeded HK$ 20 million. Just finished with his overseas concerts, Andy Lau Tak Wa two days ago made a surprise appearance at the cinema to join the CESIUM FALLOUT team of Dee Ho Kai Wa, Leung Chung Hang, Michael Wong Man Tak, Michael Chow Man Kin, Locker Lam Ka Hei, Wesley Wong Hoi Kit and others. Since the film company did not leak any news, neither the actors nor the audience knew about Wa Jai's appearance until he raised his hand in the audience to ask questions. Everyone then found out about him, which made all the audience scream. It was quite a surprise for Wa Jai's loyal fan Ah Dee, as the two "Wah Dee" finally met in public.

Wa Jai ran from the audience to the front of the stage, hugged and greeted a group of teammates in the film. Michael said to Wa Jai as the character in the movie, "Are you losing your mind?" Quick to react, Wa Jai also responded to him with a line from the film: "You're done!" The interaction between the two made the audience who had just finished watching the film applaud. Wa Jai came prepared and had already put on a blue T-shirt with CESIUM FALLOUT written on it, the same uniform as the team, to thanked the audience. Their morale was high for a while.

Wa Jai turned to several new actors and said to the audience, "Thank you for supporting Hong Kong films and our new group of actors, they are the future of our Hong Kong films!" The audience also applauded in support. Although he had limited opportunities to perform with a group of young actors in the film and some of them did not even perform together, Wa Jai admitted that he has always heard from the crew about the process and experience of this group of firefighters from the beginning of practice to filming. He was pleased to praise it, "I know about your hard work, it's very good! You are our future!"

As a loyal fan of Wa Jai, Ah Dee posted on social media earlier that working with his childhood idol was like a dream. Now he was pleasantly surprised to finally be able to thank the audience with his idol. "On the first day of work Mr. Lau has already visited the set, until the day of production wrap for me, he even specifically sent flowers for the farewell. I was so moved. Actually I was so nervous to see Mr. Lau right now. Everyone should be able to tell that I am a little 'flustered'...... I don't know if I'm saying, so happy and so dreamy. I can sense that the elders are working hard to make Hong Kong movies, and I know that they want to take the opportunity to help us, give us more opportunities for us, thank you so much Mr. Lau. I hope we can continue to work hard and not disappoint you."

Leung Chung Hang said frankly that he felt so proud to appear in the same frame as the Hong Kong legend. During the shoot when he saw Mr. Lau, he was so easy-going and nice. Sometimes he would tell jokes and ask everyone brain teaser questions to ease the tension at work. As soon as Michael (Wong Man Tak) next to him use Nice to describe Wa Jai, he interjected and joked: "I think he isn't so nice, he yells at me all the time (because in the film they were sworn enemies); but he said next time he would have the opportunity, he would make a comedy with me and (Michael) Chow Man Kin. The dialogue could even be in English, so that's OK!"

As for Locker, he said that he basically only met Mr. Lau two or three times on the set; but when he heard that Mr. Lau would ask two Michaels to make comedy, he immediately seized the opportunity to recommend himself and said, "I want to make a comedy with Mr. Lau too!" Wa Jai said that he was welcome to do so, and revealed that in fact, the first message he received about firefighters in this film was about Locker's injury. He knew that Locker was very professional as he continued to work very dedicatedly with injury. Wong Hoi Kit said that he had a scene with Mr. Lau, in which he had to wear a radiation protection suit to enter the fire. For several late night shoots he accompanied everyone until the end. He was very professionally the first to dress up neatly and wait for everyone, and ease the tension for everyone before going to the "disaster site" together, so I am very grateful to Mr. Lau.

Before the end of the audience appreciation event, Ah Dee suddenly raised his hand and asked Mr. Lau if he would have another chance to thank the audience with him? Mr. Lau said without any hesitation, "You make the arrangement, I'll follow!" Wa Jai's reply in seconds surprised Dee again, and agreed to see Mr. Lau again at the audience appreciation show on the 13th. At the end, the actors took a group photo with the audience to congratulate CESIUM FALLOUT on breaking through HK$ 20 million at box office, and thanked everyone for their support for Hong Kong films.
