Donnie Yen Chi Tan yesterday attended the JOURNEY WITH YOU: HONG KONG BUS STORY exhibition opening ceremony. He saw all the retro buss on display and rushed in excitedly. He said that when he was little he often took the bus, now although it was inconvenient he still would take his son to ride the double decker bus overseas on their vacations. Yen Chi Tan said, "Just now in the bus, I was thinking how to make an action scene on the bus and how to jump from the window to look good." He said earlier that his movie earlier also had many scenes on the bus. He also would like the bus company support for his movie about the Kowloon Walled City next year. Will it be an action film? Yen Chi Tan said, "I hope that the movies I make would stay in Hong Kong whether it is its subject or location. If I don't fight, who would give me money to make it? I will still have to act myself. Because of the overseas market the film has to coordinate with the market."

The film SPECIAL ID (DUT SHU SUN FUN) will be released next month. In the film he played an undercover cop. In the film he had to smoke and swear. Playing a Wise Guy for the first time, he said that before hand he studied Chow Yun Fat's CITY ON FIRE (LUNG FU FUNG WON) performance. At the same time he added street fighting, special forces combat and other techniques, the fighting will be more ferocious than in SPL (SAT POR LONG) and FLASH POINT (DOH FOR SIN).
