Louis Koo and Daniel Wu apply for Golden Horse Best Actor Nominations

OVERHEARD 2 (SIT TING FUNG WON) yesterday held a premiere in Beijing. Bona film industry chief Yu Dong, Sil-Metropole chief Song Dai, the film's producer Derek Yee Tung Sing, directors Alan Mak Siu Fai and Felix Chong Man Keung attended the premiere. Actors Lau Ching Wan, Daniel Wu (Ng Yin Cho), Huang Yi, Michelle Ye (Yip Shuen) even dressed up. The only regret was that Louis Koo Tin Lok due to injury could not attend.



At the premiere, Yee Tung Sing was asked why his recent work has been selected to be released in the summer and what secret weapon he had. He said, "I feel that during the summer, young people and white collar are the audience mainstreams. The modern action target audience mainly is these groups. I don't have any secret weapon, first the film still has to be done well. The story must be able to accurate lock on to the pulse of the times and fight to touch people's hearts. Of course the suitable cast has to be chosen. Because in the previous film the three of them had decent chemistry, thus I hope they will be able to go further." Earlier OVERHEARD 2 and the Forbes Chinese magazine organized a financial world advanced screening. The response was overwhelming and the film received extremely great word of mouth from professionals. Some media and film critics called this film the year's best Chinese film. Some even described it as the 2011 film version of GREED OF MAN (DAI SI DOI).



Lau Ching Wan was the classic Hong Kong television series GREED OF MAN's Fong Chin Bok. Years ago when he starred in SHANGHAI FEVER he was popular in the Mainland. His show business life had quite a connection with the stock market. This time returning to the stock market, Lau Ching Wan said, "I am willing to do anything that has a connection with money. However Fong Chin Bok was very tragic, tragic to the extreme before his luck changed. In the film Law Man Sun was rather successful, with benefactors all along the way."



Ng Yin Cho was seen as a favorite for next year's Hong Kong Film Award Best Actor. At the same time, he and Louis Koo Tin Lok applied for the 48th Golden Horse Film Award Best Actor category. Ng Yin Cho said that everything was left up to fate. He even said that he picked Koo Tin Lok to win and that this was the entire team's honor. After learning Koo Tin Lok and Ng Yin Cho's Golden Horse Best Actor applications, Huang Yi and Yip Shuen sent their congratulations.
