The 9th Asian Film Award will take place on March 25 at the Macau Venetian Theatre. The event yesterday held a press conference to announce its nominations. This year, 42 films from 8 countries and regions received 74 nominations. The jury president this year will be director Mabel Cheung Yuen Ting, who will lead 13 professional jury members from different regions to select excellent work of Asia. Best Actor Aaron Kwok Fu Sing will be the celebrity member.

Ivana Wong Yuen Chi earlier in the month received 5 Hong Kong Film Award nominations. Yesterday again with GOLDEN CHICKENSSS (GUM GAI SSS) she was nominated for Best Newcomer. As For Best Actor and Best Actress nominations, OVERHEARD 3 (SIT TING FUNG WON 3)'s Sean Lau Ching Wan, PARADISE IN SERVICE's Ethan Ruan and BLACK COAL, THIN ICE's Liao Fan were nominated for Best Actor while COMING HOME's Gong Li, DEAREST's Vicki Zhao Wei and THE GOLDEN ERA's Tang Wei as well as PALE MOON's Rie Miyazawa were nominated for Best Actress. The Lou Ye directed BLIND MASSAGE last year won the Berlin Film Festival Outstanding Artistic Contribution (Cinematography) Silver Bear prize and six Golden Horse Awards. Thus it became the Best Film and Best Director favorite.

Ivana said that she had to remind herself to learn to be a professional actress, not to disappoint anyone who supported her. "The nomination is already a great grace and blessing, winning or not is not important. It is already a great honor." She was nominated with GOLDEN CHICKENSSS but was very thankful for directors and actors who have worked with her in 2013 and 2014. Ivana said, "I just joined the film industry last year, and knew that I had a lot to learn from film productions. It was very professional and a lot of fun, it is a great art. (Who is your biggest competition this time?) I don't know because some of the nominated films haven't been released in Hong Kong yet. I haven't seen them." She also revealed that earlier when she watched the Oscars, some winners' speeches moved her. Did she copy any down for her own use? She said, "I tried, but I don't know if I will have a chance to speak on the stage. If not, I will talk about my experience on social networking sites." Did she know what she would wear? She admitted that she did not because she ate a lot during the New Spring. Her boyfriend told her to relax, if one did not fit she could try another one. Rising with comedy, she admitted that her new films will mainly be comedy. Yesterday she saw Cheung Yuen Ting and she would like to work on a drama with her.

Cheung Yuen Ting also hoped to work with Ivana and praised her potential like a girl next door. "She is a creator, I never expect her to be so convincing as a 'chicken'. She stole the show, truly deserving her Best Newcomer nomination."

The financial secretary yesterday announced the budget. The Hong Kong Film Development fund's Film Production Financing Scheme's production budget upper limit will be increased to HK$ 25 million. Cheung Yuen Ting who applied for the fund when she made ECHOES OF THE RAINBOW (SHUI YUET SUN TAU) said, "If it's true then I am rich! Now film productions are very expensive. Because Mainland productions are fighting over personnel, without reasonable budgets it will be hard to compete with others. (Will you consider apply again?) It will depend on the situation, (Sandra) Ng Kwan Yu and (Simon) Yam Tat Wa both got a friendly rate. I can't always make people discount their rate."
