Taiwan’s Chunghwa Telecom Unveils Investment Slate Headed By ‘Gunshot’ & ‘Call Of Lobster’

Chunghwa Telecom has announced new investments in Taiwanese films, drama series and other entertainment at the Taiwan Creative Content Fest. The slate includes the crime drama *Gunshot* and the action comedy *Call Of Lobster*, reflecting the telecom company’s role in funding local content and helping it reach international markets.

*Gunshot* is an eight-part series about three police officers with differing ideas of justice, while *Call Of Lobster* is loosely based on a Taiwanese lobster farmer who offered services to North Korea. The film stars Chang Chen and Choi Siwon; other investments include three further drama series, a horror film, a cooking show and a band’s Asian tour. Chunghwa’s earlier film investments, *Arrested Memory* and *The Photo From 1977*, have 12 Golden Horse Award nominations between them.
