China Daily, New York, July 17 (Reporter, Zhang Minlu) The 2024 Hong Kong action drama "Customs Front" was invited to participate in the 23rd New York Asian Film Festival, and Nicholas Tse, who led the lead actor and served as an action director for the first time, won the highest honor of the 23rd New York Asian Film Festival "Screen International Star Asia Award".

The film, directed by Qiu Litao and starring Nicholas Tse, Jacky Cheung, Lin Jiaxin and Yasser Liu, with Wu Zhenyu in particular, tells the story of the special police of the Hong Kong Customs and Excise Department who are bombed and robbed by overseas forces in the process of investigating the arms smuggling case, and uncover the secret of the arms theft.

Speaking about his acting career at a media conference on July 17, Nicholas Tse said: "One of the most important elements of acting is the details of life. Do you know what loneliness is, what happiness is, what you call love. As I get older, my understanding of life is different. So I’m going to play joys and sorrows now, which is completely different from when I was 20. I’m a father now, and I have a lot of life experience, which is different from when I was a teenager. [My acting career] also tells about different life stages."

The 23rd New York Asian Film Festival will be held in New York from July 12 to 28. Founded in 2002, the New York Asian Film Festival is one of the most important Asian film festivals in the United States.
