Raymond Lam Will Focus on Film Career this Year

Although Lunar New Year is a time for celebration with family, Raymond Lam (林峯) spent the holiday working. He added that if his girlfriend, Karena Ng (吳千語), did not have work, they may find time to spend the holiday together.

When teased about when they will pass out red packets as a married couple, Raymond smiled and said, “Let’s not talk about my personal life. But I pass out red packets every year wishing everyone a year filled with luck and fortune.”

Raymond Hopes to Pursue More Diverse Roles

In the year of the sheep, Raymond will involve new challenges in television dramas, films, and music. His management company, EEG, has already lined up projects for Raymond for the entire year. In February, he will be traveling to the United States to record a new Mandarin album. In March and April, he will go to Mainland China to film a new wuxia series. In the last half of the year, he will be busy filming movies.

Apart from expressing his hopes of hosting a fifth concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum,  Raymond wants to focus on filming movies. Although his popularity soared through his portrayal of memorable roles in television series, Raymond prefers filming movies because they allow for more diverse roles. “The audience for TV series is primarily families. The designs of the characters are limited. But in films, you can try out different things.”

Asked what types of roles he would like to try, Raymond said, “For example, television series will not have characters with schizophrenia. There are some, but the way the character is portrayed will not push the limit. Besides, the producer may not cast me in this type of role. So I hope to show the audience something different.”

    1. raymond lam next new album should call “pao seed”

      the hk new term means” gone nuts/out of control

    1. He’s looking a little different in this photo. Botox ? The eyes and brows area seems so ‘clean and pulled back’ ??

      1. It’s that hair cut that makes his forehead looks like a 5head. Or maybe even a 6head. Cause a average male forehead like 4 inches

  1. Please record a Cantonese song. I haven’t heard one from you for a while. Screw mandarin

    1. Me too but not in that intensity…I like Mando songs too but craving can’t Canto

      1. Please record a hokkien song on your new coming mandarin album to cater your Fujian clan ‘s fans around the world

      2. I wish chinese was only Cantonese and hokkien….thecnorthern chinese sucks balls all those arrogant asses and exaggerating

      3. Hakka is pretty much mandarin and Cantonese mixed together from a new dialect. I wish china people only had one dialect, I don’t care if it Cantonese or mandarin. It just makes it so much easier if it was like that. But chinas so big it’s common to have many dialects.

  2. it would be better if raymond can just star in one of andy lau’s movies even if just second or third lead.
    it is better than being lead actor than EEG trash movies

  3. Look like he will take a series produced by H&R Century Pictures. Such a smart move because H&R Century Pictures are hot items and its series often go to HunanTV. He is choosing better series to star in. EEG is giving him better opportunity than TVB.

  4. A person can be given a certain amount of opportunities, if he doesn’t take advantage of them, he will not go far in his career.

    Whether he takes on whatever movies he gets, if he does shopping all day long and has an imbalanced life, his career will stall. That’s the advice I have for uncle Ray.
