Family Ranks First for Raymond Lam

Sometimes your background determines your choice. Some people see themselves as the most important. Others will think of their spouse first. Materialism is the most important to some people! When you are very busy, you might start to neglect the most important things or people in your life. Perhaps we'll only know how much we treasure someone or something when we lose them. Being successful in his career and cooking stuff for family at times, how does Raymond value the most important things and people?

Raymond was given a list of 58 items. He had to pick 6 most important things in his life out of the 58 listed items. Raymond mumbled, "Is father the same as mother? I also love my brothers and sisters. Then I have already selected 4 items already?! Wow, ferrarri is in the list of choice! May I change it to another brand?"

After a while, he selected 5 items. He said career is very important. "I'm going to add this item!"

The First Round - Raymond chose Dining with Family, happy family, career, health, travelling and Hong Kong as the most important things in his life

Dining with Family and Happy Family

"My family, including my father, mother, brother and sister, always matters most for me!

Dining with family is also as important as a happy family. I feel very forutnate to be in my family because they love me so much. My parents are considerate and understanding about my busy schedule and my brother and sister also take good care of themselves so that I don't have to worry about them. I treasure this a lot. They stand by me forever.

They understand that I'm busy and won't grumble that I don't have time for them. Hence, I'll dine with them whenever I have some free time to do so. My family is a bit interesting. My daddy is the one who's the best at cooking and cook most meals! If my brother and sister are also at home, we'll go shopping for the meal. I actually enjoy going to the market to buy stuff for dinner! My daddy will cook whatever we buy. I'm very happy in the way it is now.

Career

I stand where I'm at because of my career. I value my career a lot; however if I happen to get a job I don't quite like, I will start to get a bit lazy. I'm really lucky that I get a lot of support from the audience and others within my 10 years in the entertainment industry. In addition to drama, I also got a lot of other opportunities to try out different areas. I never dreamt of holding my first concert already within 2 years of releasing my first album. I thought it's a dream rather than reality.

Until the poster, advertisement were out and the tickets were sold out, I'm still telling others that it's like a joke. I can't quite believe it until all staff have been confirmed for the concert. Then I tell myself, "Oh really? I gotta believe and prepare for the concert. It's coming up."

I'll try my best on my music and acting career because I am interested in both acting and singing.

Health

Since I'm overloaded with work, I don't have meals at a regular time so it's not a healthy style of life. I don't care about this that much previously. In the past, whenever I shoot ancient dramas, I'll also try the dangerous action scenes too. So I got injured at times.

Now I'll see if a scene is too dangerous and whether it makes a lot of difference in me doing that scene than someone else. I'll also try to have meals at a regular time.

Travelling

I have been waiting to go travelling for quite a while. But the destination, such as Macau, cannot be too faraway from Hong Kong. However, my schedule is so full and I cannot turn down any of those to-do-list. Then I'll start to temporarily give up this thought of trips.

I wanna travel because I'd like to really learn, feel and absorb everything I encountered. After all, it's meaningless to learn nothing after finishing a lot of work!

In this way, I can then improve and thus be more mature.

Hong Kong

Although I have gone to other countries, I have a sense of belonging to Hong Kong as I grow up in Hong Kong and also established my career here.

Second Round - Happy Family, Career, Health

Happy Family, Career

No matter what, family is always the most important thing in my life!

I always need to be a good role model for my younger brother and sister. I feel lucky that my everything went smoothly for my career so that I can take good care (the most basic ability) of myself.

It's impossible to only focus on either one of my acting and singing career. They make up my entire career. Even if many people ask, "Will you spend more time on singing now?" I'll say "no".

I'll try my best and concentrate on singing when I'm singing, acting when I'm acting. I'll just try my best to do my part and finish my tasks. Others also helped out in the process and that helped me concentrate on my work in a better way. This is the foundation of my career!

Health

I never had facial in the past. Recently, I went to have facial less than 6 times within 2 years. But I began to realize its importance. Nevertheless, my appearance also counts towards my career. It's also a way of showing respect. I'll try to pay more attention to health as being healthy is our key responsibilty for those who love and care about us too.

Family ranks No. 1

My family always stands by my side at all times.

If I have to shoot dramas, then I can only see my family members for a few times in a week (on Monday). Most of the time, I get up early and leave home early. By the time I get back home, it's already past midnight and it's time to sleep. But my parents will still come in and ask if I'd like to have some more meals or snacks so we can meet more often in this way. They are my motives for my life."
