Raymond Lam Fung, Jennifer Yu Heung Ying, Venus Wong Man Yik, Rachel Leung Yung Ting, Kingdom Yuen King Tan and others attended the production start ceremony of the movie LIVING TO WIN (MIN SI DUT GUNG DUI) yesterday, and everyone was a parent with a child or daughter in the film. When the actors carried the child actors for a group photo, Lam Fung and Yu Heung Ying, who were already parents, were of course skilled craftsmen; regarding the subject of the movie, which was based on the difficult situation of children applying for school interviews, the two had deep feelings. Lam Fung was confident that TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN (GAU LUNG SING JAI JI WAIS SING) would win awards. He also praised Yu Heung Ying for her patience and often talked about parenthood with him. He said with a smile that his daughter Luna was an optimist like herself.
Playing husband and wife in the film, Lam Fung and Yu Heung Ying smiled and pointed out that as soon as they saw each other during filming, they talked about parenthood. Even the entire crew, including the director, could not leave this topic. Speaking of the production, Lam Fung praised Yu Heung Ying for being very patient. Because two weeks before the start of filming, the director made special arrangements for them to play with the children and get acquainted with each other. Yu Heung Ying could play with the children for 3 hours, while he revealed that he was already "out of juice" after 1 hour. Yu Heung Ying pointed out that she also played until she lost her voice that time. In addition she had to play with her children when she went home everyday, so she lamented that the children were truly infinitely energetic.
The two lamented that how difficult being parents were. Aside from playing with them, they also had to take care of children's education and studies. Yu Heung Ying pointed out that her child is only a little over a year old but has already started to prepare for the admission interview. Lam Fung also said that he was busy with interviews for his daughter's primary school enrollment. He said that the homework in kindergarten was very difficult now and equivalent to the level of primary school when he was in it. In addition, even his vacations had to accommodate the children's holidays and suffer expensive flight and hotel prices. He could not be as casual as when he was single. Speaking of online claims that his daughter Luna looked just like him, Lam Fung said, "Actually she looks like her mother, but her personality is really similar to mine. We both are optimists." Would his wife and daughter join him at the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony next month? Lam Fung said no, because his wife wanted to accompany their daughter to school in Shanghai; as for the confidence in competing for the Best Actor, he said that he had confidence in the entire team of the movie TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN. It would be his first time to participate in the "Hong Kong Film Awards" event, so he would maintain the mentality of a spectator.
Wong Man Yik was obviously red and slightly drunk when she appeared. She admitted that she did drink a little because of the drunken scene performance. "The director hopes that the actors can let go in the performance, so I just went to the convenience store to buy alcohol. I even drank a lot, the worst thing is that it doesn't taste good. I am not drunk though!" She revealed that in order to raise children in the film, she needed to work a lot of different jobs. Thus she would have many looks, among which she thought the most fun was the security guard. Leung Yung Ting was very happy to work with Wong Man Yik in the movie, because after meeting at the Hong Kong Film Awards 5 years ago they even went to the karaoke box together, but they never had the opportunity to cooperate. She joked that they waited from originally playing two teenage girls to now mother roles.
Speaking of them having a lot of fun with the child actors on the set, Yu Heung Ying even hugged and kissed the child actors in a full display of her motherly love. Yet when talking about having children, both Wong Man Yik and Leung Yung Ting thought that the pressure was too great and they were not ready. Wong Man Yik said that she was more certain that having children was no joke, as she felt that she was not ready she would focus on work first; Leung Yung Ting admitted that she did not want to be a mother. The more time she spent with children, the more she understood that it required patience and a sense of responsibility. She joked that parents do not get to get off work. In addition, Leung Yung Ting was nominated for the Hong Kong Film Awards Best Supporting Actress with THE LAST DANCE (POR. DEI YUK). She said that her picks would be Rosa Velasco (Wai Law Sha) and Maggie Li Linlin. "I very much look forward to running to several good friends and co-stars at the award show."
