"Money Empire" Begins Filming

Eason Chan, who just returned to Hong Kong from Taiwan, was seen in Kowloon City on August 23, 2008 filming a segment for the upcoming film 金錢帝國 Money Empire (tentative), whose cast includes two Best Supporting Actors, Tony Leung Ka Fai and Anthony Wong Chau Sung. For his segment, Eason had to act like he was drunk, fall down to the ground and bang his head against the wall.

Even after banging his head against the wall and falling to the ground, Wong Jing (producer) was not satisfied and personally guided the camera angle, which led to Eason having to fall down on the stairs 5 to 6 times before everything was set, and ended up taking a couple of hours. Despite his arms and legs red and swollen from the bumping and falling there were no complaints; he is indeed earning his money the hard way.

(Note: New tentative title is 金錢帝國 Money Empire, previously rumored title was 金錢世界 Money's World.)
