The Dominic Ho Ho Man, Candy Yuen Ka Man, Jeana Ho Pui Yu and Hazel Tong Chi Yui starred category III comedy THE GIGOLO (NGAP WONG) opened officially on the 29th and made over HK$ 500,000 on its opening day. The film had less shows than its opening day rival MORTDECAI, but it left its rival in the dust in terms of admission at every show as it became the single day Hong Kong film box office champion.

Dominic two nights ago attended a surprise audience appreciation event with director Au Cheuk Man, Hazel, Ronan Pak Kin Yan and La Ying. When the audience saw the actors screams of "Duck King" arose. The actors gave away film posters and memorabilia. Dominic welcomes all fans and did not turn anyone way for autographs and pictures. Fans gave him good reviews, saying that he was handsome, in great shape and his performance was wild.

The first time lead actor Dominic emotionally said when he saw the sold out show, "Thank you everyone for supporting THE GIGOLO at the movies. It's the first time I attend an audience appreciation event as the lead actor, I hope everyone would like my performance and continue to support the film." Hazel said, "This time I have no bottom line for the film, I hope everyone would like it." Fellow gigolo in the film, Pak Kin Yan also said, "Tonight I not only have to thank the audience but also the director Au Cheuk Man for giving me a chance."

The Louis Koo Tin Lok, Teresa Mo Shun Kwan, Eric Tsang Chi Wai, Gordon Lam Ka Tung starred Lunar New Year film AN INSPECTOR CALLS (FAU WA YIN) will open on the Lunar New Year's Day. Koo Tin Lok and Mo Shun Kwan battled wits in the film. Goo Jai was out for justice and Sister Mo was protecting her family as they were at each other's throat. In one scene, Sister Mo almost fought Goo Jai. Goo Jai turned Sister Mo onto the sofa, but Sister Mo did not back up as she even pulled off Goo Jai's hat.

Working with Sister Mo, Goo Jai admitted that it was very pleasant. Because Sister Mo was very professional, the collaboration was very comfortable. He said, "Don't be fooled by her petite size, actually she is pretty strong." Sister Mo said that having made so many Lunar New Year films, AN INSPECTOR CALLS was the one that was the most worthy of the audience to watch. It not only had comedy elements but also a story that made you think.

Lam Ka Tung in the film played a couple with Ada Liu Yan. Working with Liu Yan for the first time, did Ka Tung and Goo Jai not dare to directly look at the buxom Liu Yan? They said, "Huh? What haven't we sen?" Then Ka Tung joked, "Just joking, actually we don't think about that at work. We are professional actors." Ka Tung was lucky this time. Not only was he paired with Liu Yan but also shared a kiss with Chrissie Chau Sau Na, which the director added last minute. However he and Sister Na have worked together before, and it was just a light peck. Goo Jai in the film was not as lucky but he still said it was a lot of fun. This film was fun because the entire event was very strange. They was also able to have a war of words with Sister Mo.

Louis Koo Tin Lok yesterday attended an event to support the Children Charity Foundation's sweater event. He urged the public to care more about the needs of the poor, but he avoided talking about his own charity work as he was trying to remain "low key".

Speaking of starring in 3 Lunar New Year films and competing with himself, Goo Jai said that it was not planned. "Luckily all 3 films are of different genres, I have confidence in every movie. Everyone will have a Happy New Year."

He denied that he was strong in making money and the box office was beyond an actor's control anyway. He would not get any bonus and he did not believe that the box office would thin out. He only hoped that the audience would have even more different choices at the movies.

Some said that he was productive because he was popular, Goo Jai said that it was not his decision. For the New Year he wished for good health and hinted at reducing production. "I would only work if my health permits, the film has a good script and a good director and the schedule is not too rushed. I want to make time to travel with my family the most. In the New Year I will at least rest for 3 days to be with them because I am the oldest son and grandson." When asked about his love life he changed the subject immediately.

The Johnson Lee Si Jit TVB program taped two nights ago with the Lunar New Year film AN INSPECTOR CALLS (FAU WA YIN)'s actors Teresa Mo Shun Kwan, Chrissie Chau Sau Na, and Raymond Wong Pak Ming. Sister Mo in the film had a silver haired look. Why did she not appear with that look? She said that if anyone wanted to see it they would have to buy a ticket.

Wong Pak Ming said that this Lunar New Year film was different from the past ALL'S WELL ENDS WELL (GA YAU HEI SI). This film was based on a English play and would add in a lot of mystery, special effects and elegant elements, but still has its share of comedy. The film production alone cost several tens of millions. Speaking of the Lunar New Year, Sister Mo said that she will travel. Would she participate in audience appreciation events? She said that would depend on the boss. If needed she would try to make time to attend. Chau Sau Na in the film would have many different looks, like a pregnant lady, factory girl, ugly woman and beauty. One of the evening gown was very sexy. Because it was so tight, every time she sat down her chest would feel like it was under her chin. This was Sister Na's first Lunar New Year film. She said that Mo Shun Kwan's past Lunar New Year films were classic and this time she was both excited and nervous about working with her, as she learned a lot about the pace of comedy. She hoped to have a chance to participate again from now on.

Patrick Kong (Yip Lim Sum)'s new film MOOT NUI SUN TAM (NOTHING GIRL GODLY DETECTIVE) yesterday held a press conference. Ivana Wong Yuen Chi, Pakho Chau and Jacquelin Chong Si Man appeared in their film costumes. Pakho revealed that this time he played a rich kid who was high maintenance and effeminate, which was quite different from his usual "sloppy" self. The character will have a romance with Yuen Chi.

Playing a detective, Yuen Chi revealed that her character's IQ reached 189 but in reality her IQ might only be 18.9. She said, "Aside from a lot of action scenes, I also had to go undercover in a pseudo model group to investigate a case. Thus I had to wear a mini skirt and practice cute poses. I also had a chance to release a human shaped pillow. (Did you have to push up for a "career line"?) I am pure and natural, no additive, haha!"

In addition, Chong Si Man admitted that her sister Mona Ch'ng Si Wa knew Myolie Wu Hung Yi's new love Phil and often went to his night spot. She said, "The three of us sisters have known Phil for years, congratulations to him and Hung Yi. He is a nice guy, very faithful." As for his "Miss Hong Kong Killer" nickname, Chong Si Man said, "It's normal for a good looking guy to be with a good looking girl, but he was out of one relationship before starting another. He wasn't cheating. (Has he pursuit you?) No, because he likes girls with long hair."

Julian Cheung Chi Lam and Annie Liu (Lau Sum Yau) yesterday attended a skin care product ribbon cutting ceremony. Chi Lam invited Sum Yau to design his concert DVD cover, Sum Yau who studied design agreed.

Would Chi Lam be like Jacquelin Chong Si Man and pose all nude for a daring poster? He said that he did not notice, but first he would have to work out. For now he still lacks confidence. Because he had to keep warm in the winter, he ate a lot. He will work out more before the summer. Earlier at his concerts, he also displayed his abdominal muscles. However he would have to overcome a lot of psychological obstacles to be all nude, thus he admired Chong Si Man very much.

Speaking of Sean Lau Ching Wan, Chow Yun Fat and others baring their rear during film shoots, Chi Lam felt that in a movie psychological obstacles would be easier to overcome with the story as guidance. Back then in the film TO BE NO. 1 (GUM BONG TAI MING) he had a mob initiation ceremony that he only wore underwear for. In the end it was cut, which he regretted. Yet watching it again even now he would sweat a little. Would his wife not permit him to perform in the buff? Chi Lam said that his body belonged to him, his wife also said that if he had something good he should show it to people.

Sum Yau said that she was very happy to be able to participate in Chi Lam's DVD cover design, but if she had to turn over the work in a short period of time she might not be able to. She still had several movies to make. Since she agreed she had to seriously work on it. As for Chi Lam saying that he would not need to pay, she joked, "He can't even get a gift? I will ask him for a lai see. In the new year I want to choose a product to design, but first I have to concentrate on finishing the films on my hand." Would she consider wanting Chi Lam to appear in the buff? Sum Yau excitedly said, "Good idea, it's OK, let me seriously think about it. I would ask him how he would feel about an all nude concept. Even if he wouldn't be all nude he could show his booty. This way I am happier than making money, definitely many people will buy it." On Valentine's Day Sum Yau will be working on a new film in Taiwan. In the film she will play a lovesick woman. Speaking of not only not on a date on Valentine's Day but also having to work on a tragic scene, Sum Yau said that actors were passive and had to follow the story. She did not have anyone would ask her on a Valentine's Day date. Normally she would go to dinner with people, but lately she had to make movies and had no time. Even dinners had to be scheduled. Sum Yau admitted that she had no suitor and admitted to be a failure because she was extremely bashful. In the future she would only publicize a confirmed boyfriend.

The Sandra Ng Kwan Yu starred and produced Lunar New Year film 12 GOLDEN DUCKS (12 GUM NGAP) trailer was released earlier. In less than 12 hours it had almost 600,000 views. The latest poster has also been unveiled. The film had many star cameos, including Vicki Zhao Wei who has not made a Hong Kong film in years. In the film she will play veteran actress Lisa Lu's younger counterpart. The night of the shoot was the coldest so far in Hong Kong, but it was also rather fiery as she danced with 12 GOLDEN DUCKS Kwan Yu, Louis Koo Tin Lok, Anthony Wong Chau Sun, Simon Yam Tat Wa, Lo Hoi Pang, Pakho Chau, Kelvin Kwan Chor Yiu, Wilfred Lau Ho Lung, Philip Keung Ho Man, Babyjohn, Carlos Chan Ka Lok and others. Zhao Wei also said, "In the past only Kwan Yu was able to, women like us would rarely have such a chance." Kwan Yu humbly said, "No, It's just you are conservative and I am more open." Kwan Yu thanked Zhao Wei for guest starring, which required her to pay Zhao Wei a lot of respect. Zhao Wei humorously said, "Yes, then I announce from now on no one should ask me to guest star. I had too much fun this time."

This was Zhao Wei's first pure Hong Kong Lunar New Year film and she danced with the golden ducks in the film. Yet she did not treat it like work at all, after finishing her role she was reluctant to leave. She stayed to catch up with friends and had an unforgettable evening. Zhao Wei was very curious about Koo Tin Lok's chest and joked that she never knew Goo Jai had quite a wide chest. In order to play this duck group dance scene, the golden ducks learned dancing from a teacher. Wyman Wong Wai Man and Ivana Wong Yuen Chi suddenly discovered a golden elephant on the ground and joked, "My movies win awards before they are even made, we have already won the golden elephant award (sounds like Hong Kong Film Award)!" They even posed with the golden elephant.

Nick Cheung Ka Fai who was in last year's GOLDEN CHICKEN SSS (GUM GAI SSS) went to visit the set and cheer on friends Kwan Yu, Goo Jai and Chau Sun . When Ka Fai saw the sausage eating scene he could not help but say, "Wow! Your sausage seems pretty attractive!" Everyone laughed. Yam Tat Wa just won the 6th Macau Film Festival Best Actor and rushed back to the production. Kwan Yu prepared champagne for Brother Wa and for everyone to congratulate him with.
