more candid pix by a fan on baidu steven ma

Guess the cruise was sold out because the baidu fan because of late booking was put on the waiting list until the day just before the cruise date. She was lucky to get on board but unlucky that outside of his shows she did not get a change encounter with Steven on deck at all unlike many passengers who did.  Also some lamented on weibo that they did not get to watch Steven's shows at all (concert, cooking) since it was first come first serve because of limited space. The baidu fan waited in line for hours to get good seat. 

Both Steven and ship chef made their dishes as samples for some lucky passengers to taste. Steven's smoked salmon on pasta with white sauce was picked as the favorite over the chef's because his dish was more to the Chinese's taste - according to the fan. Steven also acted as a bartender with some cocktail mixing demo. So everything in the cruise went smoothly for Steven.

updated: circles 2013-1-10 never gave up on singing

1圈圈 馬浚偉:從無放棄過做歌手

Steven talks about how he has never given up on singing but that he mostly sings tv series themesongs or subtheme songs. 

Updated:
- As to return as a prof singer inthe music industry, he does not have that thought.
- Because to make music is something to be trifled with just putting aside some hours into it. 
- Has to respect the professional singers and musicians who expend much efforts and time into producing an album that may even take 1 year or 2. 
- That being said, I've never given up on singing.  
- In upcoming 2013, the reality of my producing a new album is a certainty.  I will have my own new songs, not themesongs.
- Right now, I'm in the groundwork preparation stage. 
- I'll start with releasing 1 or 2 news songs, will treat that as my own interest, and see how's the response. 
- So now I'm contact many people in the music industry, or someone who can transform my image - just a part of my artistic journey. 
- But obviously I can't be like a professional singer spending much time in it.
- But still this my early career and moreover have had released numerous (tn:14) albums so I don't want to give up on it.
- So I hope I can come up with a good song to be played in radio stations or various mediums for all to listen to.

I left this message on Director Tsui's weibo: - The preview is excellent, epic, explosive, exciting, emotional, passionate, grandiose, intense, gripping, riveting, superior and lots more. One word -- Brilliant! Standing ovation! Bravo![鼓掌][赞]

So looking forward to lotyef.
Director Tsui is unsure of its broadcast schedule as the post production work won't get done until Sept and after that audit and approval from China authority to air it on tv so probably looking at year end to watch it.

paraphrase - summary of the above video.
In the year 1215 AD, kingdoms proliferated; Song, Mongol, and Jin, these three kingdoms were locked in a three-way rival power struggle. On the Mongolian steppes, a powerful force was rapidly gaining momentum; he was the hegemon of an era, Genghis Khan. That year, Genghis Khan led his army to the south, in this battle against the Jins came forth an earth shaking individual

CORRECTION IN RED: Steven Ma as HK safety patrol ambassador

CORRECTION: He said: "For the first half of the year, I'll be in mainland filming a MOVIE. 

Yay! Steven will be filming a movie. (I mistaken 'movie' for a tv series. )

馬浚偉未決定回巢拍劇

Artiste Steven Ma attended a safety patrol event today. It is said that TVB executive Catherine Tsang is persuading Steven to return to film a series in May.  Steven admitted that the two of them have been talking but at this time he has not decided yet. "Zan Jie (Catherine Tsang) is my 'sifu' (master). My first choice would be to talk with 'sifu'.  But have not talked about the contract details.  Hopefully will do that before Chinese New Year."  (Will return?)  "I've many options.  Hong Kong or mainland, there are people wanting me to film series."  When asked under what conditions will he return, he said: "I'm not pursuing money, most important are the script and partner. (Who would make you want to return?) "Would also like to work with Fala Chen or Tavia"

TN: "also" meaning Steven must have mentioned other actresses besides Fala and Tavia.  Reporter put words in Steven's mouth, in a much later separate tv interview Steven clarified that he did not especially pick Tavia or any of his sisters for that matter as his return tv series female lead. 

So boring to always see Steven partnering his 3 sisters. Can we have some new partnerships with other big fadans, please, pretty please?  But then, TVB has no more big fadans left.  Just can't get myself excited by this news of Steven returning to TVB. Probably just the same old same old TVB series with Uncle Choi and one of his sisters.  Haiz! I'm more excited to watch his performance in LOTYEF.
