MothBest Actor Louis Koo Tin Lok led members of the Performing
Artists Guild to visit the senior center the day before yesterday.
Always Mr. Cool, he turned into "Mr. Joy" and made many seniors smile.
At the end of the event, he even "let loose" and surprisingly sang a
song, which pushed the atmosphere to a boiling point!
The President of the Hong Kong Performing Artists Guild,
Koo Tin Lok (Goo Jai), together with Catherine Chau Ka Yee, Louis
Cheung Kai Chung and Tin Kai Man, visited the senior center the day
before yesterday, played games and distributed gifts to 80 elderly
friends. Goo Jai was very involved in the whole process, squatting
down many times to talk to the elderly sitting on the chairs. A
grandma was very happy to see him, holding his hand and saying, "I
have watched your TV series THE RETURN OF CONDOR HEROES, you are so
handsome!" Goo Jai replied with a smile, "Thank you, granny, I wish
you good health!"
The Guild vice president Candy Yu On On, and the Guild
secretary-general Cheung Kai Chung in order to made the elderly smile
tried to get everyone in the mood. Always a profound "impersonator"
Cheung Kai Chung imitated the popular dance movements of the elderly
when they were young, making everyone grin from ear to ear. When
playing the "Big TV" charade game, Goo Jai and Tin Kai Man made gestures
for the elderly to answer and the atmosphere was enthusiastic.
During the event, Cheung Kai Chung and Yu On On sang on stage,
and at the end, Goo Jai, who did not planned to perform, surprisingly
opened his mouth with the coaxing from the audience and sang FRIENDS
with everyone. Everyone had a lot of fun. With all the gifts the
elderly friends went home with a full load.
In addition, the Goo Jai and Chrissie Chau Sau Na starred movie
BEHIND THE SHADOWS (SI GA JING TAM) was released in the mainland on the
21st, and its box office collected 72 million yuan (about HK$78.7 million).
Although the performance was average the word of mouth was decent. They
played a couple who was full of differences and distrust in a very
convincing performance. Goo Jai talked about the concept of love in an
interview, saying that if he would have a wife, he would be willing to
drop everything for her. No one could imagine that with his tough image
he also had a tender side.

supporting Hong Kong films, giving opportunities to those in front of and
behind the cameras. He hoped to do his part to make even more good movies

was communication. Ng Wan Lung was the happiest to participate in film
festivals around the world for TWILIGHT, experience various local
cultures, let people know about Hong Kong action films, and hope that
more investors would be interested in investing in film. When asked about
publicizing his relationship earlier, Ng Wan Lung said with a smile that
he and his girlfriend no longer needed to look around anymore when they
went out on the streets, and frankly said that he did not want his
girlfriend to feel any pressure. The two are more comfortable after
publicizing their relationship.
The master of ceremonies of the "2024 Leader of the Year" award
ceremony for many years, Rabee'a Yeung Lok Ting felt that the event was
very meaningful. When asked about the outstanding leader candidate in
her mind, she smiled and said that of course it was herself at home. "I
feel that I am the CEO at home, and I hope to tell my husband this!
Because I handle the affairs of the house and the children by myself, I
feel that I have done a great job as an outstanding leader!" She
revealed that husband and wife would share the responsibility of taking
care of their children. She is responsible for education, and her
husband Tim Wong Tin Ngo is responsible for children's play. She also
frankly admitted that she is strict with her children from an early age,
but her husband usually works until late at night. When he comes home,
their daughter is already asleep. However her husband would spend his
holidays with children without exception. She also said that originally
her husband planned to spend time on a holiday with just the two of them
after his concerts, but in the end he had to keep recording. However
she really appreciated her husband's determination at work.
