He had not shoot a movie for many years, he told me about this movie 3 years ago, thus I told him to write the script slowly, I will surely accept the movie. Never expected that he changed the script 19 times."
When asked if he accepted the film to return the favor of Cai, Andy said: "That sound so bad! Of course this is not one of my consideration. I've not collaborate with Wong Jing for so many years, we had done so well in the past, his movies also touches me."
