courtesy of on.cc



Cecilia Cheung Pak Chi and Mainland "China Entertainment Godfather" Zhao Benshan worked together on Joe Ma Wai Ho's new film THE LION ROARS 2 (HOR TUNG SI HAU II). Zhao Benshan has always liked Pak Chi's direct personality so this time he guest starred without any salary. Earlier without any fear for Xiangshan, Ningbo's poor weather he took his private jet in the rain. The Mainland media even described Zhao Benshan as "paying" because the personal jet ride from Beijing to Ningbo cost around 200,000 yuan.


Zhao Benshan in the film played Pak Chi's father. As soon as Pak Chi saw him she joked that they had quite a father and daughter look. Zhao Benshan praised Pak Chi not only for her good acting but also her courage in facing her family troubles. She was one of the actresses who he appreciated the most. Pak Chi was teary eyed. In order to thank him for his zero salary support, Pak Chi also attended Zhao Benshan Liu Laogen Club opening today. Yesterday Pak Chi already took Zhao Benshan's private jet to Beijing and planned to return to Ningbo on Zhao Benshan's private jet again.

Cecilia Cheung Pak Chi has been working on THE LION ROARS 2 (HOR DUNG SI HAU 2) in Xiangshan with famous Mainland comedy star Xiao Shenyang. They very quickly established chemistry and set off many sparks. Whether on or off the set they created a lot of laughter.
Earlier on the set they demonstrated a "shuttling" dance as they bumped heads and stepped on toes. Pak Chi's braids even often slapped Xiao Shenyang's face. Their expressions were mischievous and they danced and laughed so hard that they were tearing up, as the set was filled with laughter. The dance was one of the major comedy bright spots in the entire film. Pak Chi and Xiao Shenyang trained with a dance instructor before the shoot, but during the shoot due to the lack of music they had a hard time with the pace. Director Joe Ma Wai Ho immediately thought up using a mobile phone to play a song.

Yesterday Cecilia Cheung Pak Chi officially began work on her new film. As soon as she got out of bed she was nauseated and looked much thinner. Yesterday Pak Chi began work on her new film THE LION ROARS 2 (HOR TUNG SI HAU 2) for the first time. She appeared to be in good spirit and when she was not on the set she played with her phone. Originally frail Pak Chi looked even thinner and was nauseated early at work.

Yesterday, Cheung Pak Chi arrived at the Xiangshan film and television city's Spring and Autumn Warring State city to start work. She was already in make up when she arrived. The team in order to coordinate with Pak Chi had guards at the film city gates, stairways and corners to fully prevent the media from disturbing Pak Chi. Even so, reporters still did their best for a peek of Pak Chi at work. With make up bruises on her left cheek and left corner of her mouth, Pak Chi looked occupied with herself. Often she would flash a smile and attentively studied the script with director Joe Ma Wai Ho.

Despite her appearance, Pak Chi has been nauseated since work began and looked frailer than before. A worker revealed, "Pak Chi is still sick. She vomited at the hotel. Actually since she came back from Milan she has been sick." The worker also said that Pak Chi in order to keep from hindering the progress worked until late at night as scheduled. She did not ask to return to Hong Kong to see a doctor either as she was very professional. The worker also said, "It's very hot here, Pak Chi really is having a hard time. Art director (William) Chang Suk Ping already tried to make some lighter costumes for her so she wouldn't have to suffer in the heat and the sun."

LION's investment company Asia Entertainment Group chief Yu Yuk Hing also confirmed that Pak Chi was sick. "She got up around 7 for work, soon she started vomiting. However she has been quite professional. The workers asked her if she needed to go to the hospital, she only took a sip of water and rested before continuing. She has quite an actor's ethics."

Yu guessed that Pak Chi still had the flu, got up earlier, the heat and dieting for the new film costumes made her sick. He joked that Pak Chi even had the Mayor of Ningbo under her spell. "The Ningbo Mayor was visiting nearby. As soon as he found out Pak Chi was working at the film and television city, he personally visited the set. The Mayor very happily chatted with Pak Chi and said that he admired her and thought she was very professional."

Supposedly the team complained about Pak Chi taking time off. Yu denied it and said, "Absolutely not! As I have said, right now it is only the break in period, the scenes would be very easy going. Her time off wouldn't affect progress."

Currently making a movie in Ningbo, Cecilia Cheung Pak Chi upon arrival began to meeting with the team and costume work. She was rumored to be ill though and might hinder the production progress.

Pak Chi two nights ago arrived in Ningbo. A mass of media covered her arrival. She wore a medical mask, cap, headphones, kept quiet and her head lowered. Some Mainland media claimed that in order to prevent media disturbance she booked the entire first class cabin and had security at the entrance. After she left the airport she reported to the team.

The producer yesterday morning praised Pak Chi's professionalism online. "Professional, professional! As soon as she joined the team she immediately attended a meeting without any regard for exhaustion and worked!" Yesterday William Chang Suk Ping fitted her with costumes. She was in a decent condition. At night when Pak Chi returned to the hotel many reporters followed her. She wore sunglasses. Although she did not say a word, she kept a smile on her face.

Rumored to be ill, Pak Chi manager in Hong Kong Emily said, "Don't frame her, Pak Chi yesterday after arriving in Ningbo immediately went to a meeting, make up and costume fitting. I just got off the phone with her and she said that she was in a meeting and had some costumes to try. If she could go she could work." However she revealed that Pak Chi had a light fever and flu. She had medicine with her and was only afraid that she might suffer a heat stroke in that weather.

Has Pak Chi and Nicholas Tse Ting Fung communicated? Emily said, "They haven't begun to communicate. (Has Ting Fung sent the divorce agreement to Pak Chi?) She hasn't receive any; if it was issued, it would have been between the lawyers."

Currently working on the film THE VIRAL FACTOR (YIK JIN) in Kuala Lumpur, Ting Fung will return to Hong Kong Friday to fight for the custody of his two sons. Some said that Ting Fung was prepared to reduce production and remain in Hong Kong for work to prepare for Luca's return to school, spend more time with his two sons so they could grow up in a healthy environment.

Cha Siu Yun who revealed that Pak Chi eroded Ting Fung's net worth recently accepted a Mainland media interview. She said that she would not speculate on the future consequences of "Fung Chi" because they were both people of character and had very special ways to handle the matter. No one should speculate and instead should let it take its natural course. Speaking of online criticisms of her, she said, "I am not the ugly one, their idol is. Whatever the idol looks like is whatever kind of fans they are."
