Selena Lee Sze Wah, Adam Pak Tin Nam and director Bizhan Tong Buk Shan attended the preview screening of the movie TAPE (LOK YING DAI) yesterday. In addition to being the actress, Lee Sze Wah also held two jobs of film producer and screenwriter. She laughed and said that because the film budget was not large, she only received the actor's fee and treated the rest as experience earned.

Lee Sze Wah revealed that the movie was adapted from the 2001 American film, which tells the story of a group of high school classmates who reunited 15 years after graduation to force themselves to face the "bad things" they have done before. She remembered that she had just undergone thyroid surgery when filming this movie. She joked that she almost did not recognize herself on the big screen. She said, "The movie is not a big production, but it also is quite a test for acting skills. It went to many film festivals before, and I am very happy to have won several awards." Li Sze Wah also said that she did not feel any pressure on the movie box office, and she was even more happy to see that many of the priority screenings were full. For her, she was as happy as winning the Mark Six Lottery. When asked if her good sisters would come to support her, Lee Sze Wah said, "It's a bit difficult to invite them all together. Ting Yan (Nancy Wu) is currently 'Lord Seven' and busy promoting, Hung Yi (Myolie Wu) is filming a drama in the mainland, Pal Soh (Paisley Hu Pui Wai) and Pal Gor (Sinn Lap Man) are in Paris. I was very happy when they came to Shanghai to watch me perform in a play. If I want them to come every time, I'm afraid I will fill up their schedule." Li Sze Wah said that her fiancé has thought about booking a theater to watch the movie, but she stopped him. In the end, he bought 30 or 40 theater tickets and invited relatives and friends to watch the show.
