Donnie Yen Chi Tan recently has been busy with his new film THE ICEMAN COMETH 3D (3D BING FUNG HUP). A major scene was originally scheduled to be shot on the Ching Ma Bridge, but finally the team relocated it to a very realistic Ching Ma Bridge replica at the old airport.
Because this scene was a classic scene in THE ICEMAN COMETH, action director Lord Tan naturally asked to elevate it more. No wonder he kept an eye on it throughout the entire process. The film company not only bought a white horse for the shoot for also prepared over 30 cars to be obstacles. Executives also called in favors and convinced Julian Cheung Chi Lam to loan his over 3 million Lamborghini as a prop.
Lord Tan revealed that this time many of the Hollywood special effect elite participated in the production and the team was rather united. Speaking of the danger of horse riding, he admitted that the white horse was not used to run on concrete and added to the risk. He told the team that safety came first.
He said, "The preparation could take its time, safety first. (Are you afraid that you would injure and deform your finger like Nick Cheung Ka Fai did?) Actually mine were all broken long ago, they couldn't be extended. I too want the shoot to be more comfortable. I never expect the film company to give me even more idea. For example they came up with this scene." Did Lord Tan want to invade Hollywood with this film? He humbly said, "I haven't thought about it, I just wanted to do my part. As long as viewers like this film it's fine."
Yesterday Lord Tan rode a white horse in pursuit of the villain and faced off against Chilam's Lamborghini. The scene was both intense and exciting. Lord Tan understood that the audience was already tired of watching "fighting from the beginning to the end" action scene. He decided to try something new with visual effects this time. As for Chilam's loan, Lord Tan said, "I am not sure, the film company arranged for everything. If it's broken tell them to compensate. (Would you take Chilam to inner?) Any time. (Would you give him premiere tickets?) No problem."
Yen Chi Tan in the new film had a lot of action scenes. Lead actress Eva Huang Shengyi was no exception either. Earlier she rode a scooter on the Ma Ching Bridge replica. Shengyi was still a little shaken. "I was a little worried, but with Chi Tan in the back it's OK."
Once a "Sing Girl", did Shengyi ask Stephen Chow Sing Chi to dinner while working in Hong Kong? She admitted that they were in contact. "I didn't ask him to dinner though because everyone is so busy. Earlier he was busy with the Mainland promotion of JOURNEY TO THE WEST: CONQUERING THE DEMONS (SAI YAU GONG MOR PIN). I had to make movies and work on commercials. The work schedule is very tightly packed." However she took time to watch JOURNEY. "Although Sing Yeh didn't perform, it had a lot of Sing Yeh flavor. I too want to work with him again."
The film company built an 1:1 scale model of the Ching Ma Bridge at the old Kai Tak airport and spent almost half a month. To avoid the set being unveiled too soon, the film company even built three to four story tall barricades to hide it!
Reportedly, the film company applied to shoot on the Ching Ma Bridge with the government but was not approved. They then build the replica at the old Kai Tak airport.
