The Herman Yau Lai To directed film SPLIT SECOND MURDERS (SEI SUN SOR LIU) two nights ago held its wrap banquet. In attendance were Maggie Siu Mei Kei, Krystal Tin Yui Nei, William Chan Wai Ting, Stephanie Cheng Yung, Kay Tse On Kay, Fama, Chrissie Chau Sau Na and Charmaine Fong Ho Man. The event held a "death god" costume contest with the director, Siu Mei Kei and Tin Yui Nei as judges. Finally Chan Wai Ting won with his all white look. The event presented him with a cape and a broom for a funny coronation.

Chan Wai Ting pointed out that originally he wanted to wear all balck, but since the "death god is silly" he mistook himself to be an angel and wore all white. He joked that that he was very glad to win this "award". In the film Xian Seli's character was Angelina Baby, which seemed to poke fun at Chan Wai Ting's rumor with AngelaBaby. William did not mind but he said that on the set he also mistakenly called Xian Seli AngelaBaby. Perhaps he was used to it and that he did not know any girl named Angelina. He turned the movie line "I love Angelina Baby" into "I love AngelaBaby". Reporters jokingly asked whether that was out of habit too and he awkwardly denied it.

The film will open on October 8. Since Tse On Kay was the lead, if the box office was poor she might be referred to as "poison". Was she stressed? Kay said, "No! How can you say that? With so many people in the ensemble, no one want to think like that. I have a lot of confidence in the director and the script." Kay also planned to ask her friends to show their support. Will she ask Eason Chan Yik Shun? She said, "I will ask the entire company to support me." She expressed that lately she and Chan Yik Shun had no contact and professionally they rarely worked together.

Kay was very pleased to have met Andy Hui Chi On in this film. He originally was a comedy expert. In one scene she and Cheng Yung fought with On Jai. She even had to stab On Jai under his arm with a chopstick, and threw lettuce and beef balls at each other. On Jai also used lobster to duel with Cheng Yung's prawn. Kay said that in the chaos the chopstick under On Jai's arm "poked" her right eye. Cheng Yung also got a cut from the lobster. Thus this shoot had both considerably blood and tears.
