The Lunar New Year movie NIGHT KING (YEH WONG) held a New Spring audience appreciation ceremony yesterday, director Jack Ng Wai Lun led a group of actors Fish Liew Chi Yu, Siuyea Lo Chun Yip, Renci Yeung Sze Wing, Dee Ho Kai Wah, Sumling Li, etc. to share with the audience and take a group photo, and announced on the spot that the film has grossed more than 65 million (Hong Kong dollars, the same below) in Hong Kong and Macau since the Lunar New Year's Day to become the eighth highest grossing Chinese language film in Hong Kong history. Some of Yeung Sze Wing's scenes have been cut, which upset her enough to make a post. Yesterday she attended the event with illness and did not respond to the interview. She coughed numerous times at the scene and did not smile until Ah Dee said that he wanted to thank her. Ng Wai Lun wanted to send the lead actor Dayo Wong Tze Wah to invite her to dinner; On the contrary, Liew Chi Yu and Lo Chun Yip's roles in the movie were brilliant and impressed the audience. They both agreed that they felt like they have won the lottery!

Director Ng Wai Lun bluntly said that he was very satisfied with the box office results, and would like to thank the audience for their support. His wish was to break the HK$ 115 million box office of his last film A GUILTY CONSCIENCE (DUK SIT DAI JONG). Has there been any box office figure betting this time? Ng Wai Lun said with a smile, " Starting the bet before, Wong Tze Wah said not to gamble anymore. He was probably afraid of losing again. He still hasn't paid up for last time." Liew Chi Yu pointed out that Tze Wah has often treated on the set, and Ng Wai Lun said with a smile, "One thing at a time, I want to get one more meal out of him."

Speaking of Yeung Sze Wing who attended yesterday with illness and left without an interview, her kiss scene with Ah Dee in the film was deleted and her figure was criticized; which made her post to express her displeasure. Ng Wai Lun responded, "She didn't say it in front of me, actually everyone is sensible; Lunar New Year films have to avoid some intense scenes." Would an extended version be released to bring this kiss scene back to the light of day? He said that he has not received a notice from his boss, but he also understood that as an actor when the scenes she worked hard to shoot would not be seen in the finished product, she would definitely be unhappy. Since Yeung Sze Wing has always liked Tze Wah, he might as well make Tze Wah take her to dinner to cheer her up. Ah Dee also moaned about the scene's deletion, but he laughed and said that he did not need to pay him any attention. Actually every actor's role in the film has more or less been deleted.

The role Liew Chi Yu played this time has received unanimous praise. She said that after many years of acting, she finally had a role that left a place in the hearts of the audience and received unprecedented attention. She felt like she won the lottery. Ng Wai Lun also praised, "She hit the jackpot herself, and only a good actor can convey the direct feeling to the audience." Regarding Liew Chi Yu's movies in recent ears have all exceeded 10 million at the box office and being dubbed "Lucky Fish", she humbly said that she was lucky enough to get on the ride that would surpass 100 million at the box office every time. In addition she has not been the one who carried the movie but just kept "tagging along", so she has been able to se the scenery of breaking 100 million together. The director made fun of her for "working indiscriminately", she laughed and said, "Working indiscriminately is great too!" She has been rumored to purchase a home with fengshui that was beneficial to her career, she said that she did not look at fengshui. The most important in a residence was comfort and ample sunlight. Would she ask for a raise? She joked, "Not cutting pay is already great. I hope there would be no more cut and keep having movies to make. (Did NIGHT KING cut your salary?) This time I have been lucky to get this role."

Lo Chun Yip this time played the big villain, and received scolding and praising alike from the audience. He happily said that the role was able to show the charm of the villain, which also made him both love and hate it. "Everyone yelled at me for all 70%, saying that I was oozing with villainy and wanting to beat me up; but they also understood that the character grew up unhappily in his family of origin. I too feel like I have won the lottery, playing a role with such dimensions and allowing me to go to a new territory." He also said that he has played some scummy roles in the past, and would not mind continuing to be a villain in the future. He was not afraid of being stereotyped either, because having a job was already very rare.

Ah Dee while thanking the audience thanked his sick partner Yeung Sze Wing for tolerating the smell of garlic cabbage in his mouth during the kiss scene, which was really difficult for her. Yet this scene was deleted, her figure was commented on and made her unhappy? Ah Dee said that was understandable. "Actors sell art, I get that everyone has the freedom to discuss. Yeung Sze Wing has always had the heart to be a good actor and do a good job." He declared that he has been unhappy too. He was criticized for being bad looking in the past, and he wanted to cry when he talked about it. "But I am so strong, and I will be happy again in the end. Just let me be!" The director said that he would make Tze Wah to take Yeung Sze Wing for dinner, but he would not be invited? Ah Dee smiled and said, "The more I talk about it, the more unhappy I am. I don't feel like eating, so I just eat their leftovers! Actually 70% of my scenes were deleted, but I also focused on the overall situation." He once "took off his pants" to thank he audience for a good box office performance, and joked that if NIGHT KING would reach 200 million he would remove two pairs of pants.

Sumling Li said that she has had scenes deleted as well, among which was a sad scene in which she was in a bath with Cheng Sau Man to talk about why she fell into becoming a "escort". The filming started in the early morning and the two of them soaked in hot water for two hours, but it was also cut a lot shorter. She understood that the New Year movie release should be happier. If there would be an extended version to tell more of their different stories in the future, she hoped that the audience would support it too.
