Chapman To Man Chak and DaDa Chan Jing earlier appeared on Cable's Film Montage and promoted their new film FLIRTING IN THE AIR (TONG BAK FUCHUNG SEUNG WON SIU). This time they played time traveling costume people. To Man Chak will play a pilot who accidentally returned to ancient times and became Tong Bak Fu. DaDa played "Sister Pomegranate", a role that Yuen King Tan played in FLIRTING SCHOLAR. When DaDa said this film, she happened to stay in the same hotel as Yuen King Tan. Unfortunately they did not meet each other. She admitted that she really wanted to see her. She liked this character and was very happy to be able to play new version "Sister Pomegranate".

DaDa also said that she was still learning about acting and hoped to continue to accumulate experience. Was To Man Chak worried about the audience comparing his Tong Bak Fu with Stephen Chow Sing Chi's? He said that when different actors played the same character, the audience would definitely compare and someone would certainly be better than him. He pointed out that he probably could not possibly be better than Chow Sing Chi.

DaDa earlier rested for awhile before returning to film. Ah Jat said that while she was resting she did not have as much stress. Earlier when DaDa said that she would retire from show business, Ah Jat admitted that he looked all over for her. He urged her to return, but at the time she continued to "dive". At the time he thought let it go, but after awhile, she came back. DaDa pointed out that during that period she needed rest the most and had to digest what happened. When she acted she hoped to be able to play every character well and not to have any baggage. If she did not perform well, she would rather not play the character.

Hui On Wa recently has been busy promoting the film with the leads. Feng Shaofeng earlier spoke with the Hong Kong media. Speaking of working with Tang Wei, he praised that she knew how to respect and understand her co-stars. Her performance made him fall deeply in love with her.

Tang Wei in the film played the Republic legendary female writer Xiao Hong, the story was based on her life and romantic experience. Feng Shaofeng played a couple with Tang Wei. Before the shoot the director gave him a lot of books for research, making it the film that he did the most homework for in history. Yet because of the character the story requirements, he must understand the history very well. Feng Shaofeng also was happy that the shoot was difficult. If the character was similar to him it would not be fun. He said that in the past he played in commercial films more, working with Hui On Wa this time was an enormous challenge. His character Xiao Jun was also very close to the modern times. How to play his real personality, romantic and literary views were very important. This time the character seemed to have given him a milestone.

Feng Shaofeng worked with Tang Wei for the first time. He praised Tang Wei as an actress who was very easy to get along with, respected and understood her co-stars. They got along harmoniously. Because Tang Wei was very much in character during the performance, he got into his character even more. Did he fall for Tang Wei? He admitted that he fell for her character. Their love was not like an ordinary romance. Xiao Jun's love for Xiao Hong was rough yet poetic. Xiao Jun was a chauvinist and would never hold Xiao Hong's hand. Before the shoot he also had to study how to walk.

As for working with Hui On Wa, Feng Shaofeng said that Director Hui was a director he worshiped very much. Earlier when he worked with director Daniel Lee Yan Kong on WHITE VENGEANCE he heard that working with Director Hui benefit him a lot, which made him very curious as he did not know what kind of person she was. Later they met and he realized that Director Hui was very friendly and often laughed happily.

The 21 year old Rose Chan Ka Wun has been working hard on different types of films to challenge herself. In her new film GOLDEN BROTHER (NAM YUN NG HOR YI KUNG), she played a London Gold Exchange agent who worked hard to take care of her family. She even seduced Bosco Wong Chung Chak in one scene! Because the film was based on a popular internet novel, Rose read it several times before hand and had an understanding of every character. For her character to be even closer to the original, she wore more padding for this scene in particular and "instantly" created her 5 inch career line. "Because my character was called Big Bust Yoyo, you can imagine how outstanding her figure is. When we shot this scene, actually it was rather difficult. It was harder than a fight scene, I really was a little stumped. Luckily Bosco was great and taught me how to perform. I wasn't as erotic as he was!"

Aside from Wong Chung Chak, Rose and William Chan Wai Ting also had many scenes together. They even had a romance. Rose would have Chan Wai Ting's baby. Rose said, "I paid attention to a pregnant woman's every move, but I remember in one scene I stood up after sitting in a chair. Because I moved too quickly, the director had to remind me to slow down." During the shoot, Rose was rumored to be at odds with lead actress Stephy Tang Lai Yun. Rose denied the rumor. "She and I in the end had no exchange, but off camera everyone was great. She is very direct, we absolutely are not at odds."

Emperor Motion Picture TO THE FORE (POR FUNG) flew to different Italian cities for location shoots. After a dramatic scene in Milan, the leads Eddie Peng Yu-Yen, Choi Si-Won and Shawn Dou Xiao went to Brianza and compete with Rui Costa! However, the three leads all became fans of the champion cyclist and asked for selfies. In the end the cyclist mistook Peng Yu-Yen's character name for his real name.

TO THE FORE earlier shot on location in Milan for a romantic scene with Peng Yu-Yen and lead actress Wang Luodan's phone call in front of a church in Milan to strengthen the romantic atmosphere, then they went to Lombardy in the north at the foot of the Alps to continue the shoot in Brianza. In the story Peng Yu-Yen joined the Lampre-Merida team and compete with Rui Costa. With this current professional cyclist on hand, the entire team was unusually excited. The film's other lead Choi Si-Won flew to Italy for several days just to meet the cyclist.

When the team arrived in the Coppa Agostoni outdoor race location, as soon as Peng Yu-Yen saw the Lampre-Merida team's repair car he immediately ran to it to study how a professional racing team plan to use space, equipment distribution and even said in awe, "This is the professional racing team's facilities, I can't see this in Taiwan. The racks, tools and parts alone already tell me they are very professional."

Choi Si-Won and Dou Xiao also came. When they met the champion cyclist, they shook hands and greeted him. In the end the three lead actors took turns to take selfies with the cyclist, who did not mind at all. Rui Costa later even posted his selfie onto fb but mistakenly called Peng Yu-Yen by his character name.

Aaron Kwok Fu Sing, Maggie Shiu Mei Kei, Patrick Tam Yiu Man, Elaine Jin (Kam Yin LIng) and others last night attended the film PORT OF CALL (DAP HUET CHUM MUI) wrap banquet. Sing Sing said that for ten years he has played many police characters, each time the feeling was different. This time he played a veteran cop in his fifties. To coordinate, he had to reduce his exercise rate to half. Has he had time for hot pot casserole lately? He said, "Less." Did he not have any female companion? He said no and asked reporters to introduce him some. He revealed that this year he will make three movies, commercials, concerts and other jobs. How was his love life? He said, "Not to sound outdated, destiny hasn't arrived yet. Let it be. Now I would focus on work." Would he ask friends to make introductions? He said, "Sometimes when I would go to group events I am afraid of the added salt and vinegar, everyone knows it's fake. I don't need to give people a motive, so I think about it even less." As for his new film with Jaycee Chan (Fong Cho Ming), Cho Ming supposedly had to shoot additional scenes and was replaced. He said that he truly had no idea. The film has already finished its shoot. He only did his part as an actor.

Tam Yiu Man said that this film was a suspense. He and Siu Mei Kei both played cops. Siu Mei Kei will head to Hengdian and Wuxi for the series shoot CHEUNG BO JAI. She said that in the series she fell into the water but she did not know how to swim. Would she have to learn? She said, "I can't, now my cries for help when I am drowning will be more convincing." Her wedding has been frequently rumored. Would she return to Hong Kong to wed her boyfriend after the series? Before she could answer, Tam Yiu Man joked that during the shoot he wore a ring but now she did not. She said, "I wore a ring for the shoot because my character is already married and a mother of two." Why was she still shy about a publicized romance? She said, "There are so many people here, a girl has to remain reserved."

Ah Jat's home ATV lately was rumored to have been sold successful and Albert Yeung Sau Sing was rumored to be a part of the investment. He was very surprised and said that he did not know. He said, "How gutsy! Someone has the guts to run any business! I always say that Hong Kong is a place that is full of legends." He also said that he has not heard Mr. Yeung mentioned it. However with such an executive level matter, he in the lower level might not have heard; yet he believed that if the rumors were true it would be good for his former co-workers.

Stephen Chow Sing Chi lately has been mired in gossip and ganged up by filmmakers. Chubby Chung who recently worked with Chow Sing Chi on his new film MERMAID said that he indeed was very bothered, but only for the new film. His mood has not been affected. Did he not dare to mention it? He said that he wanted to coax him into talking about it, but he said that he would not; talking about the characters would be even better. Speaking of his friend Chan Kwok Kwan's upcoming wedding with Emme Wong Yi Man,he said that he would take two days off to the wedding. Would he urge him to become parents soon? He said that his friend has always worked very hard on "making" a child, but earlier his leg injury required surgery and might have hinder the progress.
