Raymond's Interview( Missing part of the issue 135 of "TV Series")
credits: Raymondforest, TV Series
TV: At first, did your family agree to let you join the industry? Is it like in dramas, disagreeing but you still joined?
Raymond: No, they just told me to go try, my family is very democratic.
TV: Are you a person with cofidence? Like wanting to do something and will continue.
Raymond: I'm okay, I just think that if I have the ability to, then I would have cofidence.
TV: Acting for so many years, is there a point where you feel that you can't handle it anymore?
Raymond: Yes, yes! I think every artist face the problems of false articles. Sometimes I think that it's not the readers who want to read this, it's the media who give them these things that are twisted from the truth. It's actually sad, like the Hong Kong paparazzi; some of them write, some take pictures, some take videos, and will pick some to "add on". In Hong Kong, you can't just go eat with opposite gender friends, even if they are your aunt, cousins, or old classmates. The best way is to stay away from them, and not drag them down. (Lost a lot of freedom?) Have to find a private place to eat dinner. Every artist in Hong Kong face this pressure, we are just forced to get used to it.
TV: Do you like to read action novels in class?
Raymond: Yeah, I read them, but I never finish any of them. (Laughs) Because I will start on a new one before I finish the other one. (Laughs) I don't read in class, I was actually a pretty good kid when I was young, just that I fall asleep sometimes.
TV: TVB had a lot of series about cops before, and since you have a healthy image, how come we rarely see you as police?
Raymond: Yeah, I never portrayed a police character, I don't know why the scriptwriters didn't ask me to. (Laughs)
TV: How much qualities would be put into each character?
Raymond: Every character starts out with a challenge, because we haven't grabbed onto it yet. For example, if a character have this kind of problem, and you are supposed to react to it, you wouldn't portray it as smooth, because you would be afraid that it wouldn't connect to other parts later on. So, you have to believe in yourself, becuase sometimes the scripts will change, and you don't know how your partners will act, everyone has to adjust themselves. You can't just act as yourself either, because the results will turn out bad. Every character has its own quality, maybe modern series would have more. In the beginning of each series, I would add a bit of my own mood and feelings into the series, so the character would be more realistic.
TV: Is Siu Chai like you? Wanting to continue your own dreams, and is optimistic.
Raymond: A little bit, I have a depressed side also. But sometimes people have mood swings, you know, a lot of actors have this feeling, just never show it during work. (Laughs)
TV: Have you thought of when you would retire? Or change your job?
Raymond: Depends how much I can use of myself, If I think I'm doing poorly then I'll leave. (Laughs) I hope I'll always have room to improve.
TV: When I read information of this character, I think he's like Siu Chai, energetic, and smart, what do you think?
Raymond: In the series, I'm a director, and have to watch over a group of people. I can't be like a little kid jumping around, only would be "good" to the girls, and a friend of the co-workers.Work is work, the character seperates that.
(Note: I believe they are talking about "The New Breath of Love)

The Beehive thanks ...
Fung's Label, Raymond's previous official website and its
webmistress, Sasa, for providing so much of Raymond's news and
information. Without FL, many of Raymond's fans would've been
like little losties, without any clue as to where to find
Raymond's news. FL kept us informed and updated for a total of
2 years. It officially closed on the 21st August 2006, but I
would still always remember it.
52raymond.com, also known as the Lam House.
It was my source of Raymond's media. The fans
there updated new clips or songs of Raymond's very quickly. It
was a brilliant forum, a true home to Raymond's fans. It
officially closed on the 1st September 2006, but I would still
always remember it.
Vickie. She's my beautiful Net friend with a strong command of the
Chinese language and very frequently she helps me with
translations. She's also excellent when it comes to graphics
and even though I haven't actually used any of her graphics in
The Beehive, I still thought that it was worth mentioning.

Expectations of fans
If you want to repost any materials from this blog, please remember to credit. Mentioning The Beehive and the name of the translator would be courteous.
