Terrance Lau Chun Him and Louise Wong Dan Nei collaborated again in COLD WAR 1994 (HONG JIN 1994) 8 years after ANITA (MUI YIM FONG), and both admitted that each other has grown and matured a lot in terms of acting skills and personal status. This collaboration brought a new chemical reaction, Lau Chun Him was even praised by elder Tony Leung Ka Fai to sky high, and he laughed at himself as a "mortal" and dared not accept it; Wong Dan Nei hoped to collaborate with Lau Chun Him again in comedy in the future, saying that she will fully challenge it when she encounters a good role.

In the film Lau Chun him played the young version of Leung Ka Fai's character "Lee Man Bun". He admitted that the role was difficult because the audience has a predetermined impression of Brother Ka Fai's interpretation. "The toughness and affection given to the character by Brother Ka Fai cannot be shaken off, this is the backbone. Yet both the director and I hope to add new creations to give the characters more layered, which will be more fun." COLD WAR and COLD WAR 2 respectively made over HK$ 42 and 66 million. Would there be any pressure to shoot a prequel this time? Lau Chun Him bluntly said that there was no pressure, believing that pressure would not help the performance. He would just focus on doing his part.

Wong Dan Nei played the new mob boss big sister, and felt that the role had more room to play and the filming process was enjoyable. The team marched toward the same direction. "Without much to worry about, at work we can fire all cylinders."

More than two months before filming, the underworld and the police actors in the film received firearms and action training together. Not only would they have to shoot stylishly, but also to train the agility of reaction and dodge movements. Wong Dan Nei even hoped to make the kneeling down and pulling out the gun practice at home its most stylish. She said, "I adapted very quickly, practicing until I shot without blinking. At the same time I was training myself not to get hurt or hurt people." Was it harder to hit people or getting hit? She laughed and said that both were difficult, you need to know how to control your strength when punching people; the shot must look realistic and no one could be hurt; when getting hit, you must endure the pain and accurately interpret the feelings of knife wounds and gunshot wounds. Playing the role of a female mob boss for the first time, she watched a lot of underworld movies in advance, then referred to and integrated them into her own style. "The character grows up among a pile of men. She must not only have the strength and toughness of men, but also hide the resilience and softness of women."

Speaking of Lau Chun Him's action scenes in the film were no less than in TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN, the complete set including gunfights, car chases, car flips, and going into the sea. He admitted that balancing action and dramatic scenes was rather hard, and having to maintain a fierce state for the first half of the year was very tiring. He said that the most memorably scene for him was the thrilling scene of driving into the old Kai Tak Airport at the end. Rain came that day and the road was slippery, but as a non stunt driver he still went into battle himself. Following the action director's guidance, he drove in high speed and did not brake until he was near the gate. Even if the tires slipped a little he would have crashed into the gate, luckily he was fine in he end. Regarding the motorcycle chase scene between him and Wong Danni that had a very A MOMENT OF ROMANCE (TIN YUEK YAU CHING) feeling, they also agreed with this statement. Lau Chun Him even joked, "I can't avoid wearing the leather jacket!"

Leung Ka Fai praised Lau Chun Him for "the new generation of movies belongs to him", Lau Chun Him sighed and referred to himself as a "mortal". "I know that Brother Ka Fai loves me very much, but I really don't dare to accept it. I just do my job, do my own thing, and I don't dare to think so much about the rest." In the film Lau Chun Him and Daniel Wu (Ng Yin Cho) had a series of confrontations. He said that he was very comfortable acting with Ng Yin Cho, who was usually a very casual and nice person. Yet in the film he had bad intentions and selfish desires, betraying him step by step. "In private we are very close friends; because we both like to exercise and like cars, we have many Man's talks and are very compatible."

In addition Yuan Biao guest starred as Lau Chum Him's "Papa" in the film, but only worked together for one day. Lau Chun Him praised Brother Biao as very friendly. Because his son was the same age as Lau Chun Him, they very quickly got into their roles. Brother Biao also shared his experience in filming action scenes and scene designs, which benefited him a lot. When asked after showing off his skills in many movies, would he like to become a new generation of action actors after Nicholas Tse Ting Fung? Lau Chun Him said with a smile: "Ting Fung is much more agile than me. He has been practicing martial arts for many years, while I just pretend for a living."

Lau Chun Him and Wong Dan Nei collaborated again 8 years after ANITA, and both said that they have both grown a lot. Wong Dan Nei said that this collaboration felt very interesting and had new collisions, and she hoped to collaborate again in comedy next time. She believed that meeting a good role was fate. If she would run into a good role, she would give her all her to challenge it; Lau Chun Him said that the market is currently sluggish, and he Was very happy just to have a movie to make. Would he be willing to reduce his salary in the future? Wong Dan Nei said with a smile, "I also said I would help Lau Chun Him make his movie for a buck, which is cheaper than Brother Ka Fai 2 buck rate!" Lau Chun Him joked,: "Then the movie will be done for 5 bucks, I can make a movie with one less claw machine machine. That would be great if it's true!" He admitted that he wanted to invite "Papa" in the film Brother Biao to collaborate, but he did not give his contact number to him that day.

COLD WAR 1994 ending left room for interpretation, reportedly COLD WAR 1995 has already been completed and would tightly follow in release. Lau Chun Him played coy. "I don't know. I can't revealed anything. Everyone please pay close attention."
