The John Woo (Ng Yu Sum) produced wuxia film REIGN OF ASSASSINS (GIM YU) earlier held a premiere in Beijing. The segment that honored Ng Yu Sum was the most emotional, as the event displayed footage of his Venice award acceptance but suddenly added his daughter Angeles Woo (Ng Fei Ha)'s thoughts about his award. Ng Yu Sum broke down after seeing the words that her daughter said for him. Attending the premiere were director Su Chao-Bin, actors Michelle Yeoh (Yeung Chi King), Jung Woo-Sung, Barbie Hsu (Tsui Hei Woon), Shawn Yue Man Lok, Wang Xueqi, Paw Hee Ching, Pace Wu (Ng Pui Chi) and Leon Dai Lap Yan. The entire audience gave a three minute standing ovation.

The actors proceeded to perform. Yue Man Lok stood out the most as he made noodles on stage. He then jumped rope with the noodles he made and lighten the mood. Most actors performed with swords. When Jung Woo-Sung drew his sword it broke in half. Actually it was a set up, the
missing half of the sword was already in Jung Woo-Sung's chest. Yeung Chi King and Jung Woo-Sung embraced each other. She said that from the first day of their collaboration they fought, later they held hands at any public event as a message of mutual support.

The John Woo (Ng Yu Sum) produced REIGN OF ASSASSINS (GIM YU) will be released on October 7 in Hong Kong. Yesterday a press conference was held in Beijing. He, director Su Chih-Pin and actors Michelle Yeoh (Yeung Chi King), Jung Woo-Sung, Barbie Hsu (Tsui Hei Woon), Shawn Yue Man Lok, Wang Xueqi, Paw Hee Ching, Pace Wu (Ng Pui Chi), Calvin Li (Lee Chong Hong) and Leon Dai Lap Yun attended. The host asked Jung Woo-Sung and Yeung Chi King to reprise their wedding proposal scene. In the film Yeung Chi King asked Jung Woo-Sung if he was willing to marry her. Although they were buddies, reprising the scene in public was still embarrassing. Jung Woo-Sung immediately helped her and kept her from proposing. Before she was able to respond, he already continuously repeated, "What did you say?" and pretended to have reprised the scene.

Ng Yu Sum was asked if he switched faces who he would switch with. He humorously said that he would like to become Jung Woo-Sung because in childhood he has always wanted to become an actor but he did not grow tall. As long as he had Jung Woo-Sung's looks he definitely would become a top actor. Jung Woo-Sung said, "Thank you Director." Big S earlier injured her right arm during a shoot but she insisted on attending the Beijing press conference and premiere. She hoped to be able to promote more. However all of her movement was extra cautious and she avoided contact with anyone to pretend nerve injuries. Shawn Yue Man Lok who stood next to her took extra care of her.

Ng Pui Chi wore four inch high heels, which made the already tall her even taller. Yue Man Lok often stood on the tips of his toes to keep from being shorter than her.

[2010.09.04] MICHELLE YEOH SHINES ON THE RED CARPET

The film REIGN OF ASSASSINS (GIM YU) held its global premiere at the Venice Film Festival. Producer John Woo (Ng Yu Sum) accompanied his wife and their daughter Ng Fei Ha, Michelle Yeoh (Yeung Chi King) and Korean star Jung Woo-Sung walked the red carpet. Taiwan star Pace Wu (Ng Pui Chi) and Shawn Yue Man Lok came alone, but the former showed off her legs and the latter wore red shoes with a black suit. Both stole the show.

The audience was amazed with Yeung Chi King and Jung Woo-Sung's exciting fight scenes, their portrayal of a couple was even more touching. Yeung Chi King said, "Jung Woo-Sung is so handsome, I can easily get into character." At the same time, Barbie Hsu (Tsui Hei Woon) who was absent from the film festival in the film seduced Wang Xueqi. Her back revealing scene became a topic of focus.

An European film critic magazine reporter liked REIGN OF ASSASSINS very much. He said that although it was very different from the John Woo (Ng Yu Sum) style in his mind, and FACE/OFF was still the more exciting Ng Yu Sum film, REIGN OF ASSASSINS was still a great wuxia film. The kung fu scenes were particularly exciting, the visuals were very beautiful,
especially their color.
