2010-12-31 09:58 Today is the last day of 2010.

Jing Yi: Dai Hung, when having pictures taken must look straight at the camera lens la!

Dai Hung: I did!

Jing Yi: Liar! Where got?

Dai Hung: You’ve big eyes, mine are minuscule. You wouldn’t know even if I did…

Jing Yi: .. (speechless) 

Haha! Here’s wishing everybody a very happy new year!

靜宜：大雄，拍照要看鏡頭啦！ 大雄：我有看啊！ 靜宜：騙人！那有？ 大雄：妳眼睛那麽大，我的只有一點，看了妳也不察覺.... 靜宜：......（無語中）。 #哈哈，預祝大家新年快樂#

2010-12-29 21:52There’s a saying the leaves from a 4-leaf clover aka Lucky Grass respectively symbolize love, health, glory and riches. That being the case, I would like to present to you this 4-leaf clover, and sincerely hope that you will get what you love, what you need, what you wish, and what you seek.   (Tn: Actually in America, 4-leaf clover symbolizes: luck, hope, faith and love unlike what Steven has written.)

有說四葉草又名幸運草 ，而四片葉分別代表~真愛 (love) 健康 (health) 名譽 (glory) 財富 (riches) 。既然如此，那就把這片四葉草送給你，衷心祝願你能得到你所愛、所需、所想、所求。












2010-12-29 17:40 No filming today, so slept till noon.  Attended a meeting, ate a bowl of noodles, leisurely read the script, did some homework, stretched my lazy bones, very relaxing altogether! ^o^  今天不用拍戲，睡到中午才起床。開了一個會，吃了一碗麵，休閒地看看劇本，做做功課，伸伸懶腰，挺舒暢的！^o^

weibo 12/28 To be or not to be, that is the question

2010-12-28 19:53「To be or not to be, that is the question.」
Steven's actual wording. (quote from Hamlet by Shakespeare)

2010-12-28 13:56To forgive someone who didn't know he was wrong is a noble virtue, but what if he repeatedly made the same mistake, was it consider accidental? Or was it a deliberate violation? Is forgiveness even relevant in this case? 

原諒不知道自己犯錯的人，是高尚美德。但倘若一而再、再而三地犯同樣的錯，那是意外？還是明知故犯？原諒，還用得上嗎？

weibo 12/26

 

2010-12-26 21:33 I am a person who prefer to use written words to express my feelings. Hence, I am not very good at doing romantic stuff, but I can write them for you; I am not very good at saying romantic words, but I can write them for you. So long as you like them,  I will write for you.

我是一個只喜歡用文字來表達個人情感的人。所以......我不太會做浪漫的事，但我會寫給妳；我不太會說浪漫的話，但我會寫給妳。只要妳喜歡，我就寫給妳。

2010-12-26 15:21 In Thunder, Nip Duo Bo has this mantra: “People do, heaven sees!” .  En…is Heaven really looking? ＂紫禁驚雷＂中聶多寶有句口頭禪：「人在做、天在看！」。嗯......天真的在看嗎？

12/26 12:19  Actually my right leg can kick quite high (not so my left leg)  Haha!  Wishing everybody on this boxing day happy unwrapping presents!  ^@^ 其實我的右腿都踢得挺高的(左腿不行），哈哈！祝大家禮物日拆禮物快樂！^@^

weibo 12/23 -12/24

12/24 22:51 It has been many years since I last sent out a Christmas card.  I made this Dingdong Christmas card myself, both green safe and convenient, also get it directly to everybody without having to mail it out.  So good! To each and every brother and sister, Merry Christmas! =^•^=

From steven tvbblog:
2010-12-25 We wish you a merry Christmas
We wish you a merry Christmas
We wish you a merry Christmas
And a happy New Year.
4th Brother wishing everybody Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

12/24 15:31 Nip father and son got on the ball court and together they battled ferociously on this big day of Christmas Eve.   We won 3 games in a row, awesome! Fung Gor and I wish everybody a very merry Christmas!

 

12/24 00:09   Just finished doing homework, glance at the clock; time has already slipped into the day of Christmas Eve.  Since it is Christmas Eve, allow 4^th Brother to wish everybody peace, health and happiness. 

12/23 19:47 In these days of busily shooting “Thunder”, allowing no free time for badminton, I could only look to video game to soothe my pinning.  Already one whole half month of not playing badminton.  Tomorrow, yes, tomorrow, outdoor scene schedule notice actually has a break for me to ferociously play a game.  Oh, goodie, this Christmas present is so good!  Ball court, ball court friends, see you tomorrow! Ecstatically anticipating tomorrow…haha!)

 

12/23 9:08 Christmas is almost here, wishing everybody will receive a Christmas present that will make you as happy as Dingdong was in receiving his dao sa bun! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas in advance.

weibo: 12/22 when enough is good enough

2010-12-22 21:35 No sky lit by silvery lights, no sky lit by stars, at this moment in time, it seems only two of us remain on earth.  Can’t see anything else, can’t hear anything else; feels only this warmth from our embrace.  Ordinary, can be bliss; black & white, can be romantic.  No need to have too much; when enough is enough, is good enough.  

没有漫天銀光，没有滿天星宿，頃刻之間，世界仿似只剩下二人。什麼都看不見，什麼都聽不見，感覺，就只有一份相擁著的温暖。平凡，可以幸福；黑白，可以浪漫。不需要太多，夠了就夠、就好。

TN: Probably referring to a scene in epi 8 in LTT.  I’ve yet to watch it

weibo: 12/21-12/22 rational vs emotional; WS's greeting

2010-12-21 18:28 As people mature, they should understand themselves better. Of course, one can also regress! I’d always thought that I was a very rational person, that in terms of proportion, should be 90% rational and 10% emotional!  But , I finally realized my supposition is wrong, turns out to be the reverse.  I am truly not as rational as I had thought…ai, what to do?  人愈大，該愈了解自己。當然，一切也可以逆向而行！我一直以為自己是個非常理性的人，若以比例來算，該是九成理性、一成感性吧！但，我終於發現，我的自我判斷是錯的，原來比例剛好相反，我根本沒有自己想像般那麼理性......唉，怎麼辦？

2010-12-21 23:08 The Winter Solstice (Dong Ji) is a very important festival to the Chinese people.  It’s been said that “Dong is bigger than Nin” (year).  Here’s wishing everybody on this big day can be reunited with family; even if can’t meet up, should pick up the phone to send regards.  Of course, at the same time, don’t forget to call up or send sms to those friends who may feel lonely on this day.  The day may be cold, but don’t worry, a word of regards warms up people all the way to their hearts! Dear brothers and sisters: Have a happy Winter Solstice!  4^th Brother ^@^

冬至是中國人很重視的節日，有謂＂冬大過年＂，希望大家在這個大日子，都能與家人團聚，即使未能見面，也要撥通電話問候一下。當然，也別忘記致電或短訊給在這天也許會感到孤單的朋友。天冷不用怕，一個問候已教人暖在心頭！各位弟兄姊妹：祝冬至快樂！四哥 ^@^

weibo: 12/21

2010-12-21 09:49Today, I want to introduce a videographer who is a good friend of mine.  He is called Ah Pak (Wu Sing Pak).  We knew each other 16 years ago at the set in Hangzhou shooting ＂大江南北＂.  Haha! Truly going way back when!  P.S. Can you all guess Ah Pak’s nationality?    今日介紹一個攝影師好友給大家認識，他叫阿柏（胡成柏），我們相識於十六年前，當時在杭州拍攝＂大江南北＂，哈哈，果真歷史悠久！p.s.大家估下阿柏係那國人？

2010-12-21 10:58While shooting an outdoor scene, encountered a group of students from Kin Lok Middle School touring the park. They were all so friendly and polite, how to not agree to having a group photo together?  P.s. Students: go find yourself in the photo.  Haha! Study hard, add oil!  正在拍攝外景，剛好遇上一班堅樂中學的同學們到公園實地考察，他們又熱情又有禮貌，怎能不答應他們來個大合照呢？p.s.同學們，自己認番自己係邊啦，哈哈！比心機讀書，加油！

weibo: Wounded so badly, he leaves and never turns back.

2010-12-20 19:44 Don’t wait anymore for that person whom you did not value when he was still there.  If not so deeply wounded, he would not have left; since so deeply wounded, he will not turn back. 不用再等那個當他存在時你卻不珍惜的人。若不是已傷透，他不會走；既已傷透，他不會回頭。


TN: Guess Steven writes based on Links epi 6 whereby Wilson just walks on by Jojo, straight ahead, no turning back because he was too deeply wounded by her actions.

weibo: cast your eyes forward

2010-12-19 19:25The efforts made even if did not get payback will leave behind marks. These marks will eventually lead you on the road of success.  Friends, do not be discouraged! Tired? Then close your eyes, take a deep breath, and slowly lift up your head and cast your eyes forward.  Believe in yourself, continue to work hard; the light is waiting not too far off from you! Go on! I will wish you well and will also root for you, add oil! 

付出過，即使得不到回報，也會留下痕跡。這痕跡，將會引領你踏上成功之路。朋友，別氣餒！累了？那就閉上眼，深呼吸一下，再慢慢抬起頭，放眼向前望。相信自己，繼續努力，光明就在前方不遠處等著你！去吧！我會祝福你，也會為你打氣，加油！

********************

TN: Steven's bigness of heart really makes it easy for me to love him, and to root for him.  His uplifting messages of encouragement and hope help give perspective to his readers that our own mindset, attitude and behavior shaped our lives.  Yes, Steven, I hear you loud and clear.  Forward charge toward life goals with a positive attitude and hardwork, but a sprinkle of luck from above would be good too.

Encouraging words from Steven to his readers

2010-12-18 15:30 Verify the direction, lock onto target, for the pursuit of ideals and aspirations, do not fear obstacles, advance bravely! Friends, strive hard, add oil, you are the best! 3, 2, 1 lift off!  認清方向，鎖定目標，為追求心中理想和抱負，不怕險阻，勇往直前！朋友，努力、加油，你是最棒的！ 三 ..二.. 一.. 起飛！

weibo: introduce two crew members

Steven posted two weibo entries to introduce his behind-the-scenes colleagues:
 
2010-12-17 20:20 Come in pair, bring forward yet another behind the scene colleague onto the front stage; this beautiful young lady is the wardrobe mistress. My "lou po zai" Ka Kei la!  Need you to regularly take care of ....my costumes, much obliged! (san fu sai!) 一不離二，再擺多個幕後同事上枱先，這位就是服裝間美少女，我＂老婆仔＂家琪la! 平時要妳照顧我........D衫，辛苦哂！




2010-12-17 19:28Our country has a great director called Zhang Yimou; our tvb has a great stage manager who looks like Zhang Yimou.  (His name is pat pat.  A very good fellow) Camera! Roll! 321 action!  我們國家有個偉大的導演叫張藝謀；我們無線有個偉大的劇務很像張藝謀。（他名叫pat pat，大好人一個）實拍！開機！3 2 1 action!

weibo you are the one and only one in this world.

Skipping steven's other weibo to translate this more meaningful entry. 

2010-12-19 00:44 A person’s lifetime on earth always has its own existence space and value.  Perhaps, you once were being doubted, bullied, slighted, even overlooked; but regardless, you are you, even though losing you will not change the world, but the world without you is without you because there is no one who can replace you.  Remember, people can look down on you but you must never look down on yourself because you are the only you in this world, priceless, and more so, one and the only one, definitely unique.

人生於世，總有其活著空間和存在價值。也許，你曾被質疑、欺負、忽略、甚至無視，但無論如何，你就是你，即使地球不會因為失去一個你而有所轉變，但世界沒有了你，就是沒有了你，永遠沒有人能取代你。記住，別人可以輕視你，但千萬別輕視自己，因為你是世上獨有的、珍貴的，更是唯一，是絕對的唯一。

weibo: Love does not need a reason

2010-12-16 23:20 When you truly love a person, the reason for it simply can't be found. When you find the reason for your love, you will, at the same time, find the reason to not love. 真正愛一個人，根本找不出理由。當你發現愛的原因，那同時也會找到不愛的理由。 
 


2010-12-16 17:49 It is very cold in Hong Kong today. Fortunately, 'Thunder' costumes are very thick, and very warm! During the scenes' transition, I even took up the role of a video camera expert. Of course, just fooling around. 香港今天很冷，還好＂紫禁驚雷＂的戲服非常厚，夠哂暖！轉場口期間，我還充當攝影師，當然，只是鬧著玩矣！

Weibo: Steven vs Xu Zhimo

2010-12-15 22:47 My friend read that I wish to shoot a film about Mr. Xu Zhimo so made this photo for me!  Haha, quite suggestive ah.  Thanks, buddy! 朋友看到我說想演一部關於徐志摩先生的戲，就弄了這照片給我！哈哈，有點感覺啊，謝謝老友！

tvbblog: Stupid Wilson Shing

Wilson Shing is actually quite stupid, and his mindset is also very one dimensional,  giving much because of wishful thinking.  The subsequent love relationship journey is ...quite tragic.

tvbblog: Wonderful Audience

 2010-12-07 tvbblog

While shooting a series, bystanders often requested having their pictures taken with us.  I never declined any.  It is because of your support that our efforts are all the more meaningful.  Thanks, wonderful audience. Remember to watch Links to Temptation on 12/13 @ 9:30 pm. 

2010-12-15 15:01 If you can receive text message from Him, what would be your reply? 若真的收到＂祂＂的短訊，你會回復什麼呢？

Steven's 2010 dec weibo -- filming Sentinel

2010-12-14 15:36 12/14 15:36 Link premiered at 30 points, not a bad start. Viewers showed ‘affection’. Colleagues of mine let’s all add oil! Since it started well, I’ll reward myself with this new pencil case! Haha!

 2010-12-14 19:10 12:14 19:10 I truly seldom take western medicine. Despite a splitting headache, I’d still rather bear the pain than take medicine. But this time the nose allergy plus tracheitis combo is so serious it actually forces me to take this much medicine. And moreover each has to be taken at different time. So troublesome. Having me memorize 10 pages of script is much easier than this! Haiz! My voice is fine now, not off key anymore! Haha!

12/14 20:43 Selena Li: The ever getting younger Ma Zai finally became a baby! Hahahaha!

2010-12-14 20:4612/14 20:46 If I were a baby, then you must be still unborn? Could it be that tze jing is truly a ghost. …

Steven still has the child in him.
Congratulations to Steven and Link cast for a good start in ratings.  Keep it up!
