Jeffrey Ngai Chun Sun played the leading role for the first time in the movie ROAD TO VENDETTA (SAT SAU #4), wielding knives and guns and showing off his skills. He did not dare to take the baton as a new generation of action stars, admitting that he has become addicted to making fight scenes, and looked forward to more opportunities to make action movies in the future. Struggling to survive in the adverse market, Ngai Chun Sun said that he was willing to fight, had no idol baggage, would not mind showing his rear, and emphasized that he was not a rich kid like his friend Tyson Yoshi (Cheng Chun Yin) said. He would not dare to spend his savings indiscriminately for next year's album, thank his manager girlfriend Evelyn for fighting alongside him and praised her as the perfect lover.
Ngai Chun Sun played the role of a killer in ROAD TO VENDETTA (SAT SAU #4) and worked happily with Japanese actors Sara Minami, Naoto Takenaka, child actor Yurito Mori nd others. Aside from appreciating elder Naoto Takenaka's performance of long dialogue in a singing tone to elevate the "drama" flavor, he was also unrestricted by the language barrier with lead actress Sara Minami and had surprising chemistry. He praised first time director Leung Kui Ying for directing boldly and unconventionally, saying that he was very pleased with the results of the new film. He had no regrets as he already has done his duty. He would leave the result for Heaven to arrange, and had no box office pressure. "I passed 3 auditions for this opportunity to perform, I am very happy to show my serious, dark and steady side with the killer role. Different from my past righteous youth roles, I see it as a milestone in my film career."
Ngai Chun Sun spent 8 months training in martial arts, shooting guns and swordsmanship. He lost 17 pounds to be in shape, so he was even more handy in shooting action scenes. "Fighting in the narrow space of the tram carriage is a big challenge, the most memorable is the sword fighting against a group of enemies. The on and off camera staff were highly coordinated, getting the shot in one straight take within 3 hours. The satisfaction was great. Because a katana required a gentle touch to be wielded freely, it really stumped me! when a prop katana hit a finger in the winter, it hurt a lot. In contrast, gunfight shoots were not as difficult since I had some experience." Earlier when he shot for another film a wake surfing scene, his neck was injured from being strangled on a rope and took a month to recover before work resumed. He admitted that he reshot the water skiing action, he kept looking at the direction of the boarding rope and spent half a day to overcome the trauma. Now he would pay more attention to the safety measures at work. "I am addicted to filming action movies. I think it's fun. I have trained a foundation of martial arts and I am no longer afraid. Earlier when working on a new drama some simpler stunts became easier, and the stunt team were at ease and let me fight."
Ngai Chun Sun said that he did not dare to take the baton as a new generation of action stars, but he was consciously willing to fight. "Now the economic environment is poor. I don't know how many movies would start production. I am willing to audition for any opportunity, as I think it is training. Of course I am eager to cooperate with different seniors, because I have liked to watch action movies since I was a child; such as Hollywood superstar Dwight Johnson's movies, (Stephen) Chow Sing Chi's SHAOLIN SOCCER, (Nicholas) Tse Ting Fung's INVISIBLE TARGET (NAM YI BOON SIK), (Donnie) Yen Chi Tan's SPL (SAT POR LONG) and FLASH POINT (DOH FOR SIN), etc., are very exciting and sharp. I trained my fists and kicks with my uncle, who was a black belt in karate, until I learned Muay Thai to strengthen my body at the age of 16."
Talented and handsome, Ngai Chun Sun said that he had no idol baggage and did not mind cooperating with the killer character to speak foul language, "To be honest, everyone knows foul language. It depends on how you present it. Using foul language during interviews is inappropriate, it doesn't matter though while you chat with old friends. just say it when you need to when you act." Would he be okay with nudity during filming? He said that he had no problem. "I can even show my rear. As long as the plot is suitable, anything is fine. I have to accept different performances as an actor." Would his manager girlfriend Evelyn oppose filming intimate scenes? He said, "No, we are very dedicated and professional in our work, and we don't need her to approve the filming of intimate scenes. She wouldn't need to approve intimate scenes. She would ask me to watch more movies for reference."
Ngai Chun Sun's development in the film industry coincided with the cold winter period of films, would he feel that he was born at the wrong time? He lamented that being an actor was very passive. "You can still pay to make songs and music videos yourself, but film is too expensive; so you can only wait for the audition." Tyson Yoshi earlier revealed that he was very wealthy as he worked out at the gym with famous brands. Ngai Chun Sun said with a smile, "He's a bad boy, spewing nonsense! He is really rich. I have to invite him to watch the movie, lobby him to be the investor, and invest in a movie for me."
After 5 years in the industry, Ngai Chun Sun said that he has saved up for a rainy day, daily living would not be a problem but he would not dare to spend his savings indiscriminately. "I am not good at making other investments. I will focus on artist work to find a way. I plan to release a new album that would include 8 to 10 songs next year. It costs 6 figures to make a song, all by self-financing." He was grateful to his manager girlfriend for accompanying him and working hard, praising her as a perfect lover. "She is great, dedicating her time and effort to work and me."
