Promoting The Banquet | 「夜宴」宣傳

Hey All,

Just got back from Venice where I got to see The Banquet for the first time. I really enjoyed the movie and it is probably one of my favorite movies to date. Now we are on a whirlwind promotion schedule that lasts the whole month. I am in Beijing now where the film will premiere tomorrow. Then to Shanghai on the 10th for another premiere. Back to Hong Kong on the 11th to get ready for the Hong Kong premiere on the 12th. Then we are off to Taiwan on the 13th and Singapore on the 14th. Then on the 20th, we will be off to South Korea. Needless to say it's going to be a rough month!!

After all of this I will begin immediately preparing for my next movie which begins filming in October."Blood Brothers" will also be starring Chang Chen, Liu Ye and Shu Qi. This should be a fun project because I have been good friends with Chang Chen for many years but we have never had the chance to work together till now. Also this is a 1930's Shanghai gangster movie, which is a subject I am very personally interested in because I am Shanghainese. My father and grandfather lived through those times and it sounded like an incredible era.

Anyway, I'm off to snoop around the forums and then off to bed. Got a full day tomorrow!

大家好！

剛從威尼斯回來。在那兒我還是第一次看「夜宴」呢！我真的很喜歡這部電影，而這也可能是我到目前為止最合心意的一部。從現在開始的一個月，我們将旋風式的作宣傳活動，

我現在在北京，明天是它的首映，然後上海的首映是10號。11號回香港，12號首映，之後13號是台灣，14號是新加坡。到20號，我們要到南韓去啦。不用說，這一個月又這樣忙過去了！

忙完宣傳活動後，我就要忙著準備我的下一部電影了，那是10月開拍的「Blood Brothers」，跟張震、劉燁、舒淇合作。這個組合會很有趣，因為我跟張震是好朋友，我們認識了很久，但卻從來沒有合作過。這是1930年代的上海警匪片，這種題材，我個人非常有興趣的，原因是—我是上海人，而我父親和我祖父在那個年代都生活在上海。上海的一個傳奇年代。

讓我到聊天室轉一圈就睡覺啦！明天也是排得滿滿的啦。
