Raymond Lam’s first time in Wu Han, obedient towards parents is the first consideration for girlfriend The afternoon of October 3rd, even though it was raining, this did not diminish Fung fan’s enthusiasm. This is TVB’s “number one brother” Fung’s first time in Wu Han, news travelled to several thousands of fans who crowded outside a department store. During the interview Fung said that the first consideration for choosing a girlfriend is that she will be obedient (filial) to their parents. Being good to his family, Fung is really a “Goon Ga” man. Liking jewellery not exclusive to women The purpose of this trip is to attend ribbon cutting ceremonies for a jewellery store. Being a spokesperson for jewellery is normally exclusive to women, so why would Fung choose to be one? Fung smiles and says, “Maybe it’s because the people who buy this brand is mostly women, so the company chose me. The brand also designed some men’s jewellery, not only women can like jewellery or diamonds. Men are the same, normally I would wear jewellery too.” Because of rain, Fung only appeared at the function for ten minutes and had to rush to leave. About this, Fung felt very disappointed. He said this is the first time to Wu Han, he originally wanted to have more time to be with his fans, sing some songs, but the weather is not good. Because of safety reasons, he had to leave. The first consideration of choosing a girlfriend is being obedient to parents Due to MR’s Goon Ga Gung (instead of “jai” they used Gung, which normally refers to an older person, like uncle or grandpa!) he became very popular with the audience. He only knew about this “Goon Ga Gung” nickname the day before yesterday, he said, “It’s Goon Ga Jai, why did it become Goon Ga Gung? I became old? But having a character that the audience will remember, I feel very fortunate and happy.” In the HK entertainment industry there are many people who have already got married and have children. Has Fung ever thought about marriage? “Of course, but HK’s paparazzi are very capable, can’t imagine if I have a girlfriend in the future what rumours there will be? But I’m really hopeful that I can date.” What do you look for in a girlfriend? “The first consideration is of course be obedient (filial) to both of our parents, be good to my family. Because I put my family as the number one, if my girlfriend can’t do this, it’s very hard for us to be together.” Don’t like people focusing on his family background Fung’s father is known as “Xiamen Lee Ga Sing”, a well known and wealthy property businessman. Fung has expressed that after he turns 30 he will look after his family business, is it still like that now? Fung said, “I’ve said that 2 years ago, but now I’ve spoken to my family and haven’t set a date to return yet. First I will develop myself in the entertainment industry, but I’m the eldest son, so I will definitely go back.” How much do you earn filming a TVB series? Fung said the income is not bad, he has enough money to spend. Is it because of his rich family background he doesn’t mind how much he earns? “Ever since I’ve entered the entertainment industry, the most unhappy thing is that others always focus on my family background and overlooked my hard work. As an artiste we have a lot of work, nobody will work in this industry for the sake of fun. Of course I will care about the income, because I need to take care of myself and be independent.”
