Nicholas Tse to represent Hong Kong to a press conference marking the last 200 days before the Olympic Games.

Nicholas Tse, a Chinese singer and movie star who has been chosen as the National Fitness Star, brought six kung fu athletes to represent Hong Kong to a press conference marking the last 200 days before the Olympic Games.

An event, "National Fitness Welcomes the Olympics", will be held at Mongkok Stadium to mark to occasion.

Aside from singing the Cantonese version of the Olympic theme song, "We Are Ready," to be produced in collaboration with the Hong Kong Children's Choir, Tse will perform body mechanics with 6,000 children at the ceremony. VCD and DVD recordings of his performance will be distributed at some schools.

Tse thinks that performing with 6,000 students at exactly the same pace and posture will be rifer with pressure than acting in a movie.

"Even singing dose not require you to sing the quite same words every time," he said.
