Box office is nearly 1.2 billion! Eric Tsang comments on "Better Days" Derek Tsang

On November 4, Eric Tsang attended the Hong Kong Film Festival. A reporter asked him what he thought of his son Derek Tsang's "Better Days" which had grossed over 1.1 billion yuan and was approaching 1.2 billion yuan. Eric Tsang said with a smile that his son's success was because he was not like him.

Eric Tsang said: "He has achieved what he has today because he doesn't have my shadow. I can't leave him by my side, so I handed him over to Peter Chan and Bowie Tsang to Cheung Siu Yin. It's better for others to lead them."

As the son of Eric Tsang, Derek Tsang's path as a director was initially based on his father's reputation. However, with the release of Soulmates, his reputation as a director gradually became established. And Better Days further demonstrated Derek Tsang's strength.

Zeng Guoxiang once talked about his relationship with his father in an interview: "My father and I have a tacit understanding. I don't want others to think that I rely on my father, and he doesn't want others to look at his son with this attitude. So for a long time we were very separate. Apart from family life, we asked each other to keep it separate."

Zeng Guoxiang revealed that he started his life on the set as a script supervisor in the director's group, then became the second assistant director, and then a screenwriter... "starting from the lowest threshold." After graduating from university, he went to Chen Kexin's company to "do odd jobs" and learned the entire process of film production there. Later, he had the opportunity to direct "Soulmate".
