Trip to Tokyo from a WINNER | 勝利者的東京之旅

howdy mighty fanncy

Just came back from tokyo 2 night ago. Whew... what a trip. we were there for 7 days. 4 days of filming, 1 day for Tokyo film festival, and 1 day off for shopping. All I can say is I have never been so tired on a trip before. I was so exhuasted. I need a full day yesterday to recover from the trip. We were there doing a 5 minutes short film for cruiser(a drink). There will be 4 different short film from each of us Alive boys. My's happaned to be the first one. I'm not sure if I can tell you too much about the short film, Terence may have some idea for later, but all I can say is I was a playing "NINJA" running around in tokyo. It is hilarious and Crazzzy.!!!

Besides the filming, the food we had on this trip was so awesome. Ramen in Ebyisu, Kill bill resturant in Rabonki, kobe beef BBQ and so on... I will attach a few pics too.

The ramen place in Ebyisu is a small homey noodle place. The cook told us, chow yuen fat visit there all the time. and I tell ya, that Ramen was goooooooooooood..

As for TIFF, Tokyko International Film Festival. Our film Heavenly Kings had 3 separate screening there. the response is so good. the Q&A session lasted over an hour, which was originally schedule for 30 minutes. Japanese audience love it. We were a little worried at first, about the cultural differences and the subject of our film is so Hong kong orientd. But it seems like no problem at all.

Me and Dan did some interviews for Japanese newspapers and magazines, TV and so on..

Oh, there were 5 people on this trip. Me, Terence, Marcus savage, Kim chan, and Phat chan. That was the film crew. And I would like to thank 3 of our tokyo friends helping us out on the trip and through out the shoot. KB,Peter,and Maki. Also like to thank the japanese fans for coming to see us and the Gifts.

「粉絲」們大大的好嗎﹖！

才從東京回來兩個晚上，嘩噢！好結棍的旅程。我們在那兒七天，四天用在拍片，一天是東京電影節，和一天放假去「血拼」！總結來說，我可以說我從來沒有試過這麼累的旅行，我實在太累了，累到我要花昨天一天的時間來恢復體力。我們在那兒為cruiser（飲料）拍了個五分鐘的短片，其實它是我們Alive成員四個不同的短片，我的是頭一個，我恐怕不能講太多關於這個短片的事，子維之後會有些安排。但我只能說，我飾演一個在東京到處跑的忍者，相當瘋狂搞笑。

除了拍戲，我們這一程的食物，也很絕顶。惠比壽的拉麵，六本木的「標殺令」餐廳，神户烤牛柳等等.....，照片貼上了噢……

惠比壽的拉麵店，是個很小的家庭式麵店，廚師告訴我們，周潤發每次去都會幫襯他們，而我告訴你們，那家還真好好好好吃！

至於TIFF—東京國際電影節，我們的「四大天王」分三區試映，反映非常好，答問大會也超時，本來只預備半個小時。日本觀眾很喜歡這部電影。我們起初還有小小擔心，因為文化背景的不同，我們的片子這麼「香港」，但結果原來全無隔閡。

我和吳彥祖還應日本的報刊、雜誌和電視之邀做了些訪問。

噢！這次一共有五個人去這趟旅行，我、子維、Marcus savage、 Kim Chan和Phat Chan，他們都是攝影人員。另外，我得謝謝三個東京的朋友，他們幫我們安排旅程和拍攝。還得謝謝兩位日本朋友KB、PETER、 Maki和日本影迷熱情的探望和禮物。
