Hong Kong filmmakers Andy Lau Tak Wa, Sandra Ng Kwan Yu, Michelle Wai Sze Nga, Philip Ng Won Lung, Tai Bo, Kenny Bee (Chung Chun To), Kuku So Tsz Yan as well as directors Anselm Chan Mou Yin, Albert Leung Koon Hiu, Ho Miu Ki, Chow Yam Wing, Derek Kwok Chi Kin, Mandrew Kwan Man Hin and others attended the Golden Rooster Chinese Language Film Gala event the night before. The 9 Hong Kong movies include THE LAST DANCE (POR. DEI YUK), LOVE LIES (NGOR TAM DIK NA CHEUNG LUEN OI), STUNTMAN (MO TAI DOH), THE REMNANT (NGOK YUN DONG DOH), FOR ALICE (CUP OI LAI SZE), ONCE IN A BLUE MOON (MONG YUET), 24 FLAVORS (YI SUP SEI MEI), PEONY PAVILION (YAU YUEN GAING MUNG), and (GOR NIN) were also screened at the film festival. THE LAST DANCE, LOVE LIES, STUNTMAN, and THE REMNANT were awarded the "Most Anticipated Chinese Language Films of the Year" (Hong Kong and Macau) honors. Lau Tak Wah presented the awards.

The Ng Kwan Yu and MC Cheung Tin Fu starred internet love scam movie LOVE LIES recently has been released in the mainland. Ng Kwan Yu has visited Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Foshan and other places to promote. Two days ago Ng Kwan Yu appeared on the red carpet of this year's "Golden Rooster Chinese Film Festival" with director Ho Miu Ki and producer Chan Hing Kar the night before. The movie even became a recommended film.

The three demonstrated the sea salt beer mixing trick to promote the movie's subject of romance scam, which was very thoughtful. During the tour dinner, Kwan Yu and Lau Tak Wa were also invited to serve as promoters of Golden Rooster's Chinese-language films. Kwan Yuu expressed her expectation that more Chinese-language films would succeed overseas in the future.

Tickets for THE LAST DANCE were sold out as soon as they were available at the film festival. Director Anselm Chan Mou Yin and actor Michelle Wai Sze Nga attended the post-screening event. Wai Sze Nga said that the subject of the film was global. "I am very confident that this subject is the common language of everyone, about family conflicts and the trauma caused by it. Even if the movie travels around the world it would be able to resonate. Because the subject of life and death is something that everyone has to experience, so I am very confident that everyone can receive the message the movie brings out!"

Another current release in Hong Kong, STUNTMAN was represented by co-director Albert Leung Koon Hiu and actor Philip Ng Won Lung. Ng Won Lung participated in the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival for the first time. Being able to bring a film about the bitter experience of a Hong Kong action actor to the mainland Film Festival, he expressed that he was looking forward to sharing this movie with the audience. "There are very few movies that tell stories about martial arts stunt people, and I also started a martial arts stuntman. I am very happy to share this story with mainland audiences and let them feel the pain and the price paid in this industry!"
