The film GALLANTS (DA LUI TOI) just won four awards at the 30th Hong Kong Film Award, including Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Best Original Music. Immediately it led to an enormous response in the Mainland. Earlier the film's producer Lam Ka Tung led the directors Derek Kwok Chi Kin and Clement Cheng Si Kit, and actors Teddy Robin Kwan, Susan Shaw Yam Yam and Leung Siu Lung to promote in Shenzhen. According to Ka Tung, their Shenzhen visit was very well received. Many Mainland fans performed madly. They have already completely digested the film. Thus when Teddy Robin and Shaw Yam Yam appeared, fans were calling them by their character names. They even memorized the lines from the film, the response was surprisingly good. Thus they are in negotiation to release the film again in the Mainland and Hong Kong within the month to follow the Hong Kong Film Award momentum. Ka Tung said, "We never thought that the second release would have great box office, we just want to express our sincerity." In addition, the film will also release a box set of memorabilia and figures to assist with the promotion.
