Actors of the Year of the Horse Lunar New Year film NIGHT KING (YEH WONG) have been promoting everywhere nonstop for the film! Last week's advanced screening performance was ideal. With a rocket speed sell out, the preview screening box office was already HK$ 2 million! Its opening show number would be over 900 shows, the top among Lunar New Year films of the past 10 years and exceeding the show numbers of Lunar New Year film hits like MERMAID, TABLE FOR SIX 2 (FAN HEI GUNG SUM 2) and A GUILTY CONSCIENCE (DUK SIT DAI JONG).

In order to thank the audience for their support, Dayo Wong Tze Wah and director Jack Ng Wai Lun led the "EJ team" Fish Liew Chi Yu, Alan Yeung Wai Lun, Siuyea Lo Chun Yip, ERROR member Dee Ho Kai Wah (Ah Dee), Mandy Tam Man Huen, COLLAR member Sumling Li, Hazel Lam Hei Tung, Amy Tang Lai Ying@Pomato, Angelina Chiu Kwan Yu, etc. personally appeared in Mongkok to meet viewers and give away fortune bag and lai see at a Mong Kok Cinema. They attracted more than 100 fans to look on.

Tze Wah and the actors felt happy about the decent advanced screening box office, hoping the box office would continue the upward trend and have a good performance. As for the Valentine's Day audience appreciations shows, a group of the film's actors were all "Brother Foon (Tze Wah's character in the film)" possessed and appeared in suit and tie. Everyone praised them for their seriousness and professionalism. He today also thoroughly dressed up as Brother Foon and appeared in Mongkok, joking that with this look he could span 18 districts, Jordan and Cheong Lok Street. Which Brother Foon was the most convincing? He said each had its own style. After dressing up as Brother Foo, the EJ girls joked that they were planning to dress up as Sister V (Sammi Cheng Sau Man) to thank the audience.

Tze Wah felt that everyone was very united on promoting this film. Earlier Sammi has already flown to Singapore and Malaysia to promote. Today he took the baton, met the audience and gave away lai see o everyone would experience the NIGHT KING's strength and unity. Would they give away major benefits as the box office would continue to rise? Tze Wah said, "What kind of benefit could please everyone, the team and I are solemnly considering what the benefit would be first!"

Was Mongkok a place Tze Wah rarely went to? Tze Wah said, "The Mongkok blood is flowing through my body and would never leave me in this lifetime. Sham Shui Po, Mongkok and Yau Ma Tei all have my foot prints. If there would be another NIGHT KING, and everyone have seen NIGHT KING, everyone would know that the Old Tsim (Sha Tsui) isn't doing great. The next installment would be shot in Mongkok. Mongkok really had plenty to do, buy flash cards, visit the sneaker street. Ultimately I call for everyone in the entire world to come to Mongkok when they are free, stay in Hong Kong to consume and watch NIGHT KING!"

Speaking of Fish's first Hong Kong Film Awards Best Actress nomination, Sumling and Alan Yeung Wai Lun went into an uproar. She said that she has not been pining for the award, but just wanted to get more acting opportunities, "I rarely play the female lead myself, and I can be nominated for Best Actress more only if I play more female leads. (How would you celebrate with your boyfriend?) Eating rice noodles, usually only add enoki mushrooms, but this time I added duck blood; which is considered a luxury. I had Lo Hei with my family in Malaysia, and I even booked a NIGHT KING private screening for relatives and friends to watch."

Regarding praises for Ah Dee's nostrils for knowing how to act, he said that his nostrils have been trained for more than 30 years. He also said that gambling less would be better in the New Year, because there are many fraud cases now.
