Directed by Wong Jing and starring Wu Junru, Charlene Choi, Xie Na, Lu Yi, Fan Shao Huang, and Aaron Kwok, the movie "Pretty Secret Order" has achieved impressive box office results after its release. Many viewers felt that this policewoman story was almost a continuation of "Young and Dangerous." Recently, an insider revealed that "Secret Order" is actually "Young and Dangerous 4," and due to various taboos from the director and actors, they chose not to discuss it.
Wong Jing and Charlene Choi both have reservations about the Young series.
The Young series is also a taboo for one of the film's main actresses, Charlene Choi. It is reported that Charlene Choi was very interested in the script, especially excited to collaborate with her favorite comedienne Wu Junru. Since Wu Junru was preparing to retire at the time, she specially called to facilitate this collaboration. However, due to the relationship between the first two Young series' leading actress Miriam Yeung and Ching Chung Kei (former boyfriend), to avoid suspicion, she also made the same request as Wong Jing.
Wu Junru was one of the main reasons Charlene Choi participated in "Pretty Secret Order."
As the only urban female police comedy during the April Fool's Day period, "Pretty Secret Order" received excellent feedback from the audience. Many viewers believed that this movie represented the highest standard of Wong Jing's works in recent years, especially fitting for the April Fool's Day season. At the same time, some viewers pointed out that "Pretty Secret Order" and the "Young and Dangerous" series were closely related, particularly the iconic line "GO GO GO!" by veteran actor Hui Siu Hung, which sparked endless speculation.
In response to the audience's many doubts, an insider recently revealed that "Pretty Secret Order" is actually "Young and Dangerous 4!" Originally, as a signature series of the film production company Media Asia Entertainment, plans for a new episode of "Young and Dangerous" had been in preparation. However, due to disagreements on details with the director of the Young series, Marco Mak, they could not reach a consensus.
Simultaneously, since Marco Mak showed signs of fatigue in "Young and Dangerous 3," the producers had concerns about whether to hand over what would be the largest investment in the "Young and Dangerous" series to Marco Mak. After much deliberation, the directing baton ultimately went to Wong Jing. Feeling that the long-popular absurd comedies were declining, Wong Jing was very interested in this life-oriented comedy, hoping to recreate the box office miracle of "Royal Tramp." His only requirement was that the film should try to eliminate the concept of the Young series to avoid being criticized for continuing someone else's work.
