why 4th Brother

 Why 4th brother? AF ref: post 1382

Why 4th brother?  Ha, this has a much longer history than his Grand Piggy  Ma's.  Way back to year 2003-4? Outwardly, the reason given is that  Steven is fourth in his family, hence 4th brother.  But the nickname  holds a deeper meaning for the group of fans who came up with it.  I bet  not even Steven knows the deeper meaning underlying that affectionate  nickname of his.  Steven clinched that nickname when one day out of the  blue he uploaded a baidu fan's article onto his yahoo blog and signed  off as 4th brother.

  *I just read the above article on baidu.  I didn’t transfer the article here just because of her praise but because she seems to understand me rather well, especially this phrase: 自然風流. (naturally fung lao) Haha!  I accept.  So, besides thank you, also want to share.  Hopefully, lout and you all would not mind!  4th Brother.  refer post 1201

With one stroke, he not only let his fans know that he reads  and appreciates their posts in baidu but that he accepts their nickname  for him -- in effect stating that they are one big fans/cyber family,  with him as the 4th brother and they're his younger siblings. ref: post 1208 .

old quote:  Steven  sure knows how to get into his fans' hearts by signing off as 4th  brother, his fans' pet name for him. thank-you-lout-know-me-quite-well  And before that he had signed off  with 等我! Wait for me! Very perceptive!

The source of 4th Brother nickname
From the archives of Steven's Warm House fansite on how the pet name 4th brother, (sei goh) came about.

dialogue between 2 fans on the fansite.  
I: How did his pet name sei goh come about?
SY: Simple, doesn't he have 3 older sisters? He’s # 4 so sei goh lah! (Thank goodness HK has no one child policy)

I: But I know this pet name has another meaning – it imparts a warm feeling亲切when addressing him as such, right?

SY: very warm feeling. At least it’s also more restrain than calling him ‘baby /darling /treasure /boubiu. 宝贝.
I: Also there’s a 3rd meaning too. In the olden days, lovers addressed each other as goh ya, miu ya, hing ya .

SY: Yong Goh even addresses Xiu Long Nui as Gugu. Goh goh ya, mui mui ya etc aren't they the same?
I: Right, so this pet name shows his importance in your heart.

SY: en, I respect him!!!
I: And? Admire him? Adore him wholeheartedly?
SY: respect, 尊敬; adore/admire, 爱慕; feel a tenderness/compassion towards him 怜惜. you paparazzi you. 你这个狗仔队的。
I: 怜惜?

Why named 4th Brother?

^Why 4th brother? The most queried question among Steven newbie fans. And the most cited reason given is because Steven is 4th in his family, hence 4th Brother. This nickname caught on especially after Safe Guards being that his Sheung Zhi is the 4th boss. But there is a story behind how this nickname first originated with his Steven Ma's Warm House fans, what most recent Steven fans don't know unless they read the back posts, which I did and have in fact translated and posted it here because I thought it was really interesting. See post # 1232 why 4th brother? Steven, from his occasional browsing of his fansites knew of his fans' endearment for him but never let on to his fans that he knew until one day he transferred a fan written article posted on baidu onto his own yahoo blog and signed off that yahoo blog entry as '4th Brother', effectively telling his fans that he does indeed read his baidu fansite. I don’t know if Steven himself even knows of the real meaning behind that endearment of '4th brother' to those who originated the nickname.

访问人:桔子

桔子说:他的称呼,为什么叫他四哥?
小怡说: 简单阿,他不是有三个姐姐?他是第四个,就四哥拉!(感谢香港没有实施计划生育)
桔子说: 但是我知道这个称呼还有另外的一层意思,就是你觉得这样叫很亲切,对吧。
小怡说: 本来就很亲切阿.但是比"宝贝"含蓄阿
桔子说: 再有就是第三层的意思,因为在以前的有情人之间也是会用兄啊妹啊来相称的。
小怡说:杨过还叫小龙女姑姑呢,这些姑姑阿,哥哥阿,妹妹阿,什么的不都是那样吗
桔子说: 对,也就是说从这个称呼也看出来他在你心中的地位
小怡说: 恩,我尊敬他!!!
桔子说: 还有呢?爱慕他?倾心于他?
小怡说: 尊敬,爱慕,怜惜...你这个狗仔队的。
