Road to vendetta (殺手#4》movie promotion in Malaysia with Jeffery Ngai (魏浚笙) - 11th December 2025

I was drawn to Jeffery’s good looks when watching Viu TV’s reality program – “Be a Better Man” five years ago.  It’s hard not to notice him when he is so visually appealing.  His girlfriend is quite a head-turner, too. I remember thinking “wow ! this is really a super cute and compatible couple”.  Jeffery started out as a model but his fame gained traction after the exposure in “Be a Better Man”.  He went on to act in several Viu TV produced dramas, variety shows and soon after, transitioned into singing by releasing his solo track “第一個迷” in 2023. I remember being impressed by his decent live performance during one of the annual music award ceremonies.  In the past few years, he had a few supporting roles in movies such as “Table For Six”.  This year, he finally caught his big break when he was casted as the leading man in “Road To Vendetta”, playing a straight-faced assassin known as “Number 4”.  Jeffery came over to KL for the first time, participating in several promotional activities in various cinemas and attended press junket for his new flick.  To those who are unaware, Jeffery was actually in Penang a few months earlier for “Be ON game Season 4 ” filming, along with a few Viu TV hosts and artists, namely, Edan Lui from Mirror and actor Kaki Sham.  There was a meet and greet session at TGV cinema foyer. Unfortunately, it seems that many fans are not aware of this, judging from the scarce crowd turnout. I only got to know about the meet the fans event when Jeffery posted the schedule in his Instagram account.  The organizer, “MM2 Entertainment” could have done better in the promotional aspect.

 Up close, Jeffery is even more dashing in person.  He has the little kid aura, yet he was matured when fielding questions from the press and eloquent when expressing his thoughts.  Jeffery revealed that it is a huge  challenge and fresh experience for him as it is his first serious role, having taken on comedic parts in previous productions. This movie also requires him to be physically fit in-order to bring out the role convincingly which means having to follow a strict regiment of cardio exercise, enduring 6-8 months of martial arts training and of course, watching his diet.  In many scenes, Jeffery is mostly eating ramen but in reality, he spits out the noodles once the scene concludes. The theme song of this movie is performed by Jeffery.  The dialogue is a mix of Cantonese, Mandarin and Japanese since the female lead (Sara Minami) and a few other cast are Japanese. Jeffery is such a thoughtful dude. He deliberately took a few polaroid shots and gave away the autographed pixs to a few lucky movie goers. During the Q&A session with the audience, Jeffery demonstrated his language expertise when he communicates in flawless Mandarin.  Even the emcee is impressed.  There were several HK fans who travelled to Malaysia to support  Jeffery.  Responding to the HK fan’s question, Jeffery said he did not suffer any injury during the movie shoot. Nevertheless, according to Jeffery, safety is always paramount to him, especially after having a close shave with death when shooting a different movie earlier this year.  Then, he had sustained massive injury on his neck after filming a wake-surfing scene. Jeffery also shared that he is into Japanese band-sound and listens to songs from the group, “Back Number”.  Asked about his plans for 2026, Jeffery mentioned that  he hopes to dabble in more musical genre and target to release an album next year.  With his striking appearance, affable persona and humility, I have no doubt Jeffery’s star will continue to soar to greater heights.
