The Johnnie To Kei Fung directed THE BLIND DETECTIVE (MAN TAM) two nights ago continued to shoot in Mongkok. The team constructed a 3 story tall scaffold for the panoramic shoot then divided into two for the close up shoot. As soon as Andy Lau Tak Wa and Sammi Cheng Sau Man appeared, fans began to scream.

Wa Jai and Sammi put on heavy clothes in the heat and traversed on the streets, but they were very professional and did not complain. Two nights ago Chun Wong was also on hand. Soon after the shoot, he was already completely soaked from the heat.

Due to too many onlookers, the scene gradually became hard to control as To Sir began to get frustrated. The crew kept asking people not to use flash photography but to no avail. To Sir threw a tantrum at the crew. Wa Jai and Sammi after the shoot immediately ran off to their vehicles for temporary shelter. The shoot finally was completed late at night.
