[2009.12.10] EKIN CHENG WISHES FOR STORM RIDERS TO KEEP GOING

The Aaron Kwok Fu Sing and Dior Cheng Yi Kin starred STORM WARRIORS (FUNG WON II) two nights ago was released at the Golden Harvest Citywalk's opening. The leads along with director Oxide Pang Shun, boss Daneil Lam Siu Ming and actors Tang Yan attended the cinema opening ceremony. Cheng Yi Kin pointed out that this Christmas watching STORM

WARRIORS will be the trend. Without seeing it you would have nothing to talk about. Kwok Fu Sing said, "STORM WARRIORS can be considered a 'trendy film', a trendy good movie." Kwok Fu Sing was distracted during the ceremony and often put his hands in his pockets. Kwok Fu Sing during pictures pulled out his hand but dropped a bag of silica gel then another.

Sing Sing kicked the bags away like a big kid.

Ekin expressed that earlier when he watched the premiere with the audience and saw the overwhelming response. Ekin pointed out that the audience was amazed. Particularly due to some special effect scenes and the lead fights, which were a feast for their eyes. Kwok Fu Sing said, "The directors told the audience to first go to the bathroom, otherwise after the show began no one would have a chance to leave their seats." Ekin said, "Earlier at the premiere, I waited for a long time. I didn't have a chance to leave my seat." Ekin also expressed that the entire film was full of visual content and had to be seen multiple times not to miss good scenes.

Universe boss Lam Siu Ming expressed hope for STORM WARRIORS to break the Hong Kong film box office, making more than 60 million. Ekin expressed that he hoped the boss's wish could come true. As for actors' box office goals, Kwok Fu Sing joked, "Earlier at an actor's birthday

when they cut the birthday cake I wanted the box office to be like cake, bounce higher (sounds like cake in Chinese) and higher."

Ekin and Sing Sing hoped for good box office performance this time so the boss would make a third time and they would get raises. As for whether to work with the Pang Brothers again or with new directors, Ekin and Sing Sing both agreed that they definitely would like to work

with the Pang Brothers again. Ekin revealed that they already have chemistry with the Pang Brothers. As for the first film's director Andrew Lau Wai Keung, Ekin expressed that Lau Wai Keung could produce and they could all work together.
