The Albert Mak Kai Kwong directed, Louis Koo Tin Lok (Goo Jai), Gigi Leung Wing Kei, Chrissie Chau Sau Na, Philip Ng Won Lung and others starred Lunar New Year film HIT N FUN (LUM SI KUET DAU) will be released on the 28th of next month (the 29th before the Lunar New Year). Yesterday Goo Jai led the team to promote in advance at a shopping center, attracting a large group of fans to look on. Goo Jai said that he promoted in advance because of the importance attached to the film, he would work hard on audience appreciation events and propose to go to the flower market and watch fireworks together. Of course he hoped that the box office would be the more the better, but he did not dare to think that there would be a box office of more than HK$ 100 million. Chau Sau Na had adhesive tape on her leg because she had 5 stitches due to an injury during filming and was left with a scar. She hoped that the film would be able to inherit the current box office momentum of Hong Kong films and achieve good results.

Goo Jai, Leung Wing Kei, Louise Wong Dan Nei, Chau Sau Na, Ng Won Lung, Tony Wu Tsz Tung, German Cheung Man Kit, Peter Chan Charm Man, Harriet Yeung Sze Man and child actor Wong Wan Ching joined director Mak Kai Kwong to attend the promotional event at a shopping mall in Ma On Shan yesterday. The group was divided into two to play "Guess the Emperor" with 400 fans on the spot, and some fans were excited to get close to their idols and were unwilling to leavec the stage. The scene was a bit chaotic, as Goo Jai immediately called on fans to guess then leave but pay attention to safety. When he introduced the characters in the film, he humorously said, "My name is Chung Lui, and I opened a "Chung Lui Dormitory" (sounds like China Travel Service) and everyone can find me when they travel to the mainland."

HIT N FUN was promoted in advance. Goo Jai said that because of the importance attached to the film, he has not yet decided whether he would lead a team to thank the audience on the opening day. "I am very busy on the twenty-ninth before the New Year, I have to clean the home, worship gods, have family reunion dinner. I will try my best to cooperate with the company arrangements." He did not know how many audience appreciation shows there would be, but he said that he could not sacrifice everyone's vacation. Every year only the Lunar New Year's Day to the Lunar 3rd were holidays, so he will promote again on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Leung Wing Kei said that he would cooperate with the promotion before going on a trip, pointing out that the film fortunately had a big cast. She would be able to leave Hong Kong for a few days, and then meet up with everyone again to promote it.

For the box office, Goo Jai believed that the most important thing was that the audience would be happy. Was he confident that it would pass HK$ 100 million? He let out a "whoa" when he heard this. "What? Now every one has to break 100 million? However I am confident that everyone will watch it." THE LAST DANCE (POR. DEI YUK) topped the box office of Chinese films in Hong Kong, would he hope that HIT N FUN would break its record? Goo Jai said that he did not dare to talk about it, thinking that the most important thing for everyone to be happy when the movie was released on the Lunar New Year, and he did not dare to estimate how much the box office was. "How can I guess, the more the better." Leung Wing Kei thought that it was necessary to think on the bright side, and of course she hoped that the box office will exceed 100 million. What tricks would he use to pump up the box office? Goo Jai and Leung Wing Kei joked that they would not give away lai see or thank the audience. Goo Jai proposed to go to the flower market and watch the fireworks together, and do the things he would not normally do all at once. However he immediately turned back on his words and said, "I am just joking, I will give out lai see. I have not been visited the flower market for nearly 20 years, as for the fireworks I watched at home." Leung Wing Kei said with a look of envy, "You can see the fireworks at your home, but I can't from mine." Goo Jai joked, "I have been watching it on TV."

Gigi Leung Wing Kei watched Andy Lau Tak Wa's concert a few days ago. When Wa Jai sang the theme song of their movie FULL THROTTLE (LIT FOR JIN CHEH), her eyes were full of tears. She said that she recalled the memories of making the film at the age of 19. She was so moved, and praised Wa Jai as very hard working so he is still so popular today. "Although there are no guests at the concert, it is just as exciting".

Wong Dan Nei was absent from CESIUM FALLOUT (FUN SING) audience appreciation events earlier due to acute gastritis, saying that she was admitted to the hospital for pain and nausea injections. Then she was on a lighter diet, and now she has lost a little weight. Fortunately her husband Sheldon Lo (Law Hau Yung) returned to Hong Kong due to school holidays and has been able to take care of her. She pointed out that her husband will watch CESIUM FALLOUT in a few days, and was also looking forward to watching her fight scene in HIT N FUN. "He wants to see how level my fighting is at, saying that after I recover he will practice kung fu with me." Ng Won Lung could not help but laugh when he heard this, because he knew Lo Hau Yung and has practiced kung fu with him. He knew that Lo Hau Yung was good, and Wong Dan Nei was no match for him. Ng Won Lung and Wong Dan Nei did not have any scene together in the film, but praised her warmth as she bought coffee for him. "There is a fight scene with my elder brother Goo Jai in the film, and I think it will surprise the audience. This time I am mostly funny, and I am happy to have the opportunity to be funny. I rarely play this type of funny roles." Wong Dan Nei said that when she saw Ng Won Lung's costume she already wanted to laugh.

Chau Sau Na while making the film was admitted to the hospital for 5 stitches for an injury to her right foot. She was still wearing adhesive tape. "The stitches have been removed, but there will be a scar. So I have been putting on the scar removal tape, hoping to reduce it a little." Would she have trauma from working on action movies? Wong Dan Nei answered for her, "She is so tough, she insists against crying out in pain before the cameras stop rolling. She was injured on the first day of work, and everyone was heartbroken."

Were they confident about the box office? Ng Won Lung believed that the most important thing was that the audience likes it. Wong Dan Nei was happy to see more and more viewers are going to the movies, and the box office has been rising. She hoped that even more Hong Kong-made films will do well in the future, including HIT N FUN. CHau Sau Na hoped that the film would be able to inherit the current box office momentum, but she did not dare to talk about the box office exceeding 100 million. "It's better not to talk about the real numbers. Watching the Lunar New Year film is one of the entertainment programs for the New Year. There have been relatively few Chinese New Year films in recent years, I believe the audience will go to the movies with the whole family."
