Michael Ning (Bak Ji), Mak Pui Tung, Rachel Leung Yung Ting, Larine Tang Yueping, etc. two nights ago promoted their film DOG DAY EVENING (YUT GOR BO MOON DIK DAN SUN), the plot of which would be about the issues of failure to "cancel service" that many people have encountered. The four all said that they have run into such situations in reality. Playing the complainer, Mak Pui Tung has tried pretending to be a female voice to call credit card customer service to handle issues for his mother. "It worked, the other party knew I was pretending and laughed."

Mak Pui Tung and Bak Ji recently have participated in separate plays. Bak Ji said that Alan Yeung Wai Lun wanted to come up with more ideas for him to play, which made him so tired that he was thinner. Has he returned to the stage due to the film winter? Bak Ji admitted, "The stage winter would appear a little later than film's. The current plays are confirmed over a year ago. In recent years investors have decreased and the audience are more cautious about buying tickets than before." The two said that in order to increase income, they hoped to follow Chu Pak Him and become multitalented, being able to act and direct.

Tang Yueping played a mother in the film for the first time and finally experienced the difficulty of being Mama. Facing a child actor with endless energy, she felt exhausted. Leung Yung Ting found being Tang Yueping's "leg double" unforgettable. "Because Tang Yueping has already wrapped up production, the director needed to shoot a close up of her legs and thought my legs were suitable. In addition our shoe sizes are the same, so I became the 'leg double'." She and TVB program MUSIC MONEY MONSTER's HK$ 100,000 winning amateur contestant Mani had some resemblance. Leung Yung Ting joked that she also thought they looked similar. "If I knew I would have taken part, maybe I would be able to win 100,000. Next time I would give it a try, if I win 100,000 I would treat everyone to a good meal."
