2018年CRI Ray Lui, Louis Fan co-star in Movie The Bravest Escort Group

 

Hong Kong actor and martial¹ artist Louis Fan's new movie The Bravest Escort Group is due out this Friday.

Fan (樊少皇) described his role at a promotional event recently held in Beijing.

"I play the top leader of a group of armed guards. Although I come from a rich family in a town in Guizhou Province, I don't want to live a common man's life. I always feel that I am born to be a brave warrior²."

The film revolves³ around a famous ancient Chinese general Wu Sangui, who tasks his loyal subordinate Ma Bao to escort his family to a safer place, during the fall of the Ming Dynasty and the establishment of the Qing Dynasty around 1644.

Louis Fan's co-star is another Hong Kong veteran actor Ray Lui. Lui portrays⁴ Ma Bao.

"During the journey, warriors⁵ have not only to protect the family but a lot of valuable treasures. Then I hire Louis Fan and his team to do the job. Although he's from a rich family, he had never been pampered⁶ and spoiled but is a reliable guy."

Director Tao Mengxi said he reckons "The Bravest Escort Group" is a tribute to martial arts film, which has a strong identity in Chinese cinema.
