Steven Ma is currently filming an ancient TVB series, Pu Songling. A few days ago he hurt his arm, and now he almost became blind. At the time, Ma Zai was lying on the bed pretending to be a corpse. The hot wax from the candle inside the 7-star lantern hanging above the bed he was lying on unexpectedly dripped onto his right eye. Fortunately, his eyes were closed, thus preventing the wax drip from getting into his eye. But the pain jolted him bolt upright on the bed, his eyelid instantly turned red. 
He expressed his right eye is beset by disasters. A few years back, his right eye was injured while filming another series. He joked that after the eye injury, he was later awarded “My most favorite male character”. So this time, is the accident an omen to winning another award? He quipped: “If had to be blinded or hurt before getting an award, that would be terrible.
“Luckily my eyes weren’t open then, else the hot wax on my eye would have had melted the contact lens inside. Then would have to rush to the hospital because the eye could be blinded anytime.”
When recalling his injuries, Steven still seemed slightly shaken. He said he seemed fraught with injuries making this series; first he bumped his head, then hurt his hand and now almost lost his sight. He joked that his body has no one piece of good flesh left.
TN: Like always, Steven always played down his injuries with jokes.

Compilation of news from: wenweipo, Singpao &Takungpao [2009-06-27]
Pu Songling wrapped up production – Steven Ma’s BBQ dinner treat.
Pu Songling lead by Steven Ma, Linda Chung and Fala Chen has just recently wrapped up it production. The night before, Ma Zai treated the cast and crew to a bbq dinner. But the two female leads, Linda Chung and Fala Chen could not make it because they were not in town. Linda is in Canada, while Fala is working in Macao. Cast members who attended included: 龔嘉欣、李思欣、袁偉豪 and several crew members.
Prior, while shooting a scene climbing a tree, Ma Zai accidentally injured his right arm, which is why his arm was bandaged. When queried about the missing female lead stars, he said: “Linda's in Canada; Fala's in Macao, so both couldn’t come tonight. Since I’ll be leaving for Canada myself in a few days’ time, we won’t be able to get together for another end-of-production celebratory dinner, that’s why we’re having it tonight. Even though Ngo Wah has left for Canada already, he has earlier on contributed $3000 towards the lucky draws. Such a nice guy! Also, Ba Yin jie provided the red wine.”
When this reporter queried Ma Zai on his bandaged right arm, he revealed that his arm was injured 2 weeks ago when filming a tree climbing scene. “Master Mak Ling Ling has precautioned me that my limbs will suffer injuries this year. But even though my arm is hurt, I still could not resist playing badminton. I love paying it too much. And now my arm still hurts from playing it. From now on, I’d better rest it.”

compilation of various news reports
Steven wears jade to ward off evil spirits.
Steven attended the Sits promo with his hand bandaged. He expressed that he was hurt during the shooting of Pu Songling. “Recently had been very unlucky. First, my head got hit, and then my eye got hurt. The producer said that making ghosts and gods (supernatural) series will provoke the evil spirits, so suggest I wear jade to ward them off. But I'm not superstitious so didn't wear any.”
Steven hopes his injury (hand) will heal soon because next week he will be in Sabah for a promo function, and while there, will participate in a badminton competition. As for Sits' ratings, Steven said they fell between his expectation of 27-28 points.
TN: The title is so misleading it boggles my mind.
Steven specifically says he doesn’t believe jade will ward off evil spirits, yet the title says otherwise.

~~~~~TV interview snippet paraphrase~~~~
Bad luck comes in three’s for Steven
Synopsis of Steven's interview: He was asked about his bandaged right arm. He explains he hurt his arm while shooting a scene in PSL. Trying to act cool (瀟灑 xiu sa), he stepped onto Lin Chun's hand, leaped and reached for the branch with his hand to pull himself up onto the tree. The act was performed successfully, but several 'takes' were needed before the act was accepted. In one of them, his hand slipped while holding onto the branch, inadvertently straining it. The pain was minor until he played badminton the next day when it worsened.
Trouble does not come alone. Besides injuries with his head and right arm, his right eye was hurt too. In another PSL scene, he was lying on a bed beneath an over-hanging 7-star candle lamp. Unbeknownst to him and others, the candle had been melted down to complete wax. The melted wax slipped and plopped onto a huge area around his eye, promptly scalding him. He yelped in pain, and bolted upright. Luckily he had his eyes closed then. He dared not opened them until the wax cooled down and hardened. Only then, did he gingerly peel off the wax blob from his eye. It was such a freaky incident, and once again happened to his right eye.

馬浚偉日前拍劇時，被道具燈中的熱蠟濺到右眼上，幸好當時馬仔緊閉雙目，否則可能弄盲右眼。
馬仔當時正在錄影廠拍攝《蒲松齡》，被熱蠟濺到後痛得整個人彈起，右眼即時紅了一大片，但幸好熱蠟沒有濺進眼中。提起今次意外，馬仔依然猶有餘悸，更表示近日拍劇時頻頻受傷，先撞到頭部，繼而弄傷右手帶，之後又差點弄盲右眼。他不禁笑言自己身上無塊好肉。
