Curiosidades

One Second Champion is a 2020 Hong Kong sports film directed by Chiu Sin-hang, marking his second feature film project after Vampire Cleanup Department (2017). Chiu also takes on a lead role, alongside Endy Chow, Chanon Santinatornkul, and Lin Min Chen, portraying an asthmatic heir of a boxing gym who transforms a gambling addict with an ability to see one second into the future into a professional boxer.

Production

Following the conclusion of filming Vampire Cleanup Department (2017), director Chiu Sin-hang was inspired by the soundtracks of Rocky and decided to write a heart-lifting story about boxing. This idea eventually evolved into One Second Champion prior to the 2019-20 Hong Kong protests. In 2019, Endy Chow was invited to join the project and accepted the role due to his desire to film a boxing movie.

Principal photography began on 30 August 2019. The majority of the scenes were filmed in Tai Po, which included interior shots of Yip's boxing gym and the pub where Chow worked, as well as at the Yan Hing Street Refuse Collection Point. Scenes depicting Chow jogging and conversing with Yiu were shot at Ma Liu Shui and Sam Mun Tsai, respectively.
