Heavenly King Leon Lai Ming as the Entertainment Expo ambassador attended the Hong Kong Entertainment Expo 2025 launch ceremony. He said that every year he would be asked if he would have time to lend a helping hand, and he would happen to have time. Hence he has been the ambassador year after year. He encouraged the industry to wait for opportunities. He believed that every colleague is working hard, but would have to wait for timing and opportunity. He believed that in any industry being willing to work hard would achieve good results. "Actually this year has had many decent films, like THE LAST DANCE (POR. DEI YUK) had very high box office in Hong Kong, TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN (GAU LUNG SING JAI JI WAI SING) too, and the mainland produced NE ZHA 2. They have been greatly encouraging. I believe that in any position, as long as you are willing to work hard you would have great performance."
Leon also encouraged young people who wanted to enter the business to have patience, be willing to innovate and wait for chances. "No one knows when this business would have opportunities. You have to keep working hard, so that one day when you are ready, you can grasp the lucky star as soon as it appears." After the ceremony, Lai Ming quickly left after a group photo with the guests. When a male guest rushed up for a selfie with Lai Ming but the staff stopped him. Lai Ming also declined politely and quickly went back stage.
Josie Ho Chiu Yi and her husband Conroy Chan Tsz Chung yesterday, together with their new actors Iman Taheri, Danny Pang Fat and other directors, attended the "Hong Kong Entertainment Expo 2025" to promote the new films SUP FONG FAT SI (SCAVENGER SORCERER) and MOTHER TONGUE, as well as announced the future development plans of the 20 year old 852 Film Company like MY FUNNY VALENTINE, BATHORY, MACAU REDUX and DOH BO GWAI JOOK (TREASURE HUNTING NOBLES). All the films would star Ho Chiu and Iman. SUP FONG FAT SI and DOH BO GWAI JOOK's director Pang Fat praised Iman's outstanding performance and Ho Chiu for her eye for talent.
Iman from Poland also participated. For this newcomer who was once Chi Chung's personal doctor, Chiu Yi was full of confidence. She said that they have signed a contract for more than ten years, praising him as handsome, smart, mature, well-behaved, studious, and even a poet. She even jokingly promise him to film a 12 hour unit. The doctor needed to work for dozens of hours continuously in case of emergencies at any time, so being an actor was easier than a doctor. She successfully lobbied him to set aside being a doctor and step into the entertainment industry, and would be ready to shoot 5 movies and songs for him in the future. Iman said that he has not quit his doctor job. "A doctor for a day is a doctor for life, it's just that I am not working s one right now. If the show business development fails, I can be a doctor again."
Who was more handsome between Iman or her husband Chiu Yi? Chiu Yi immediately said, "The two are different types, Iman is gentleman type and Chi Chung is the sunny type." Chi Chung quipped, "Still Sunny? I should be the onion type, haha. However Iman is really good, not only in appearance, but also in connotation. (Have you taught Iman how to act?) I'm a mediator when they have any argument." Chi Chung also revealed the good news that he no longer needed to go to the United States for surgery and could start to resume work. Ho Chiu said that she would consider making a movie for him, and he joked that he would sign a contract with his wife's film company, and the three of them would film together. This year would mark the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the film company, and the company's senior management presented golden Pixiu to Iman on stage to wish the development of the company, and then toasted with everyone to celebrate.
