When the names of Daniel Wu (Ng Yin Cho), Lau Ching Wan, Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Alex Fong Chung Shun and Louis Koo Tin Lok, everyone would think of them as representatives of handsome men. Yet in their own small circle, their nicknames are actually "Danni", "Big Bull", "Tiger", "Classmate Fong" and "Louis". Who would dare to publicly call these handsome men by their cute nicknames? Handsome director Derek Yee Tung Sing would! He too has an even cuter nickname. Everyone still called the 54 mature men familiarly as "Siu Bo"!
Although the microblog has become how artists distribute information, but some in the industry still like to build their own little word to communicate with friends in a low key manner. The chance visit to Yee Tung Sing's microblog is like a peek into a man's heart. Yee Tung Sing has been on the microblog under a pseudonym for awhile already. He enjoys sharing his life and hobbies, air, land, sea, animals are all there. His baby puppy girl is the "in house model". Even more attractive of course are his handsome friends' Chok look and true sides in front of his camera. Even Lau Ching Wan's diving suit photo is exposed.
How Siu Bo calls his friends is also a source of humor. Ng Yin Cho and Koo Tin Lok's nicknames are direct English transliterations, Danni (Daniel) and Louis. As for why Lau Ching Wan would become "Big Bull" and Wai Jai "Tiger"? The explanations are truly difficult. Because Ching Wan is a "Big Bull" his wife Amy Oi Kwok Ming has become "Mrs. Bull". Siu Bo says that he does not know what kind of grass Mrs. Bull feeds Big Bull, as the older he gets the younger he looks. Actually, the men all called their wifes "Leader".
Classmate Fong is also another staple of Siu Bo's microblog. Handsome man Fong Chung Shun under his good friend's camera is the most often seen as "drunk". Big hunk becomes a big drunken hero with crab legs, only Siu Bo dares to send it. He even says that he risks the danger to his life to post it. Classmate Fong may look mighty but his tolerance for alcohol is very average. When he is drunk he speaks in English and scares off everyone around him!
Once Siu Bo distributes their gathering photo. Even Felix Chong Man Keung and Alan Mak Siu Fai are on hand. He says that Big Bull happily talks nonstop like the mic hog at the karaoke box. A group of film people talks all night not about movies but what they would do after they stop making movies.
Louis is not a frequent guest at the events, but Siu Bo loves to pick on him online. Goo Jai in a movie plays a very active character who is good at diving, short distance running and shooting. Siu Bo asks him with all the sports why short distance running? Can he not move in long distance? They trade jabs like children, which is a lot of fun.
Yee Tung Sing two nights ago shared a photo of a gathering at hishome with Brigitte Lin (Lam Ching Ha), Andy Lau Tak Wa, Eric Tsang Chi Wai, Sylvia Chang (Cheung Ngai Ga). Wa Jai did not arrive until his daughter was asleep, but he was full of smiles and not tired at all. Yee Tung Sing asked if Wa Jai has learned to change diapers? Wa Jai could not hide his joy as a first time father and loudly responded, "Of course!"
