Raymond Lam Happy with New Girlfriend, Carina Zhang

Raymond Lam (林峰) was invited to sing the theme song of web drama Flying Tiger <飛虎之潛行極戰> with MC Jin. Although Raymond is currently busy filming a drama, he could not refuse good friend, musician Tang Chi Wai (鄧智偉) and Virginia Lok‘s (樂易玲) invitation to sing for the new song, titled Reunion.

As the Shaw Brothers’ web drama features Ron Ng (吳卓羲) and Bosco Wong (黃宗澤), it indeed felt like a reunion for Raymond to be working with his former TVB friends. When Ron was asked if he wanted to film a movie with Raymond, he said, “We have always talked about working together, but we’ve been busy with our own projects. We have to find a time when we’re both free.”

Currently filming in Mainland China, Bosco Wong also said it is very hard to find the right schedule for the three actors to film a project together. “If we can do it, that’s great. It would be like a friends’ reunion and rare opportunity with many memories.”

Tang Chi Wai was asked whether he has met Raymond’s new girlfriend, model Carina Zhang (張馨月), Chi Wai said, “I’m glad that Raymond is happy now. After experiencing [a breakup], it’s good that he’s back to a normal lifestyle. As his brother, of course I’ll support him!”

Virginia Lok also revealed that Raymond has mended his heartbreak after splitting with Karena Ng (吳千語). Ms. Lok said, “Raymond is in great spirits. He is very hardworking. We didn’t talk to him about his [relationships], which come and go. The most important thing is that work goes smoothly.”

    1. @cutie777 lol, you said exactly what I was going to say. I guess I have to say something else.

      BOSCO WONG….”hi Raymond, how is Karena/Carina doing?”

      RAYMOND LAM…. Which one, you mean the one with the C or the K,?”

    1. @shimmerstars hahaha as long as she is good on bed what. Looking at the video they went to ocean park the girl carina is obedient and soft girl type. Hehe.

      And so obvioud raymond jus want to make karena angry and find a better body girl than her name also sound similar. Hehehe. But i like this carina more than that gold digger karena!!

  1. well at least this time he’s wizen up a little. she’s 28. good age for marriage, if that’s his end goal.

    I did some digging and she’s a lingerie model. personally I don’t see her as a great successor to karena ng. if anything, I think this is more like a rebound for Raymond. I mean, even the name is similar…how can his current girl not feel…weird? I’d be so insecure if it was me.

    in any case, Raymond doesn’t care anymore what we think lol. he’s detached from HK and based mainly in China. and he’s not big enough in China to make a dent in people’s opinion of him, least of all a HK-originated woman like Karena.

    1. @coralie
      If Carina is 28 then that is a improvement on Raymond’s part. However, we do not how much of an improvement since we do not know the extent of this lady’s maturity. It would be mistake would be but assuming that both have found new partners now, I assume they would have split up for a decent length of time. I doubt the similar sounding name makes much of a difference since it’s highly unlike that Raymond calls either of them by their English names anyway…

      1. @jimmyszeto yes, agreed. at least age-wise, he’s not skirt-chasing after teens. that’s a wiser choice than his last ex. but we still need to learn more about her maturity.

        idk about the names; the media calls Karena by her English name sometimes (Karena bb). so I wouldn’t be surprised if Raymond does too — for both haha.

      2. @coralie
        I don’t think it will be very wise of him to call them both ‘BB’ since it will give him reminders of his ex. Maybe come up with another soppy nickname of some sort….

    2. @coralie She has a more voluptuous body than Karena Ng, but the latter definitely appears more classy and composed. This current Carina looks rather generic, and I agree that she’s likely a rebound, like you said.

      Raymond seems to have a thing for vain, vapid, and superficial looking women.

      1. @sugarcane
        “The latter definitely appears more classy and composed” = in part due to her Ex bf’s money.

        Karena was doing high-teas and lunches in Cova (where the HK society tai-tais hang out) – he funded the passport to venues for observation and thus improved grooming. ‘Lessons’ in taste and style when you see different echelons of society … and money to fund a different classier wardrobe, change taste.. All of which she wouldn’t have been exposed to if she didn’t date a generous bf.

        Social climbing game. Michelle Reis is another very gd at this, and Carina Lau back then

      2. @nomad822 @sugarcane
        Yeh. I don’t get this that people have been praising Karena for being mature just because of the way she spoke to the media. She had to portray this image in front of the media and Raymond’s family after coming from a relatively lower class family. Would she have been so classy if selling roast pork with her dad? Also, apart from a few pics, we don’t know anything about the new girlfriend. It’s very premature to dismiss her with opinions such as ‘less composed’…

      3. @nomad822 to be fair, you don’t need to be around high-fashioned or affluent society to learn how to be a polite, well-spoken person. Karena was presentable even before she started dating Raymond — that’s probably what attracted him to begin with. Of course, dating Raymond extended the perks of her social circle immensely, but to say it’s him who groomed her into a classy & composed woman is stretching it a bit….

        @jimmyszeto – I admit I’m one of those folks who didn’t like Karena much when they first started dating. But after seeing her composure and grace when answering personal questions regarding her + Raymond’s relationship, I started liking her a lot more. She might be immature on a personal level (of which I don’t see), but she’s handled all the media attention with grace and maturity, more than I can say for other people. and let’s not use someone’s less glamorous background as reason for questioning her class. wealth is not associated with class.

      4. @coralie
        The comment on Karena being ‘classy and composed in front of the media’ might be true but we know nothing else about her on a personal level to judge what her personality is in reality. Different people have different methods of ‘handling the media’. Also we don’t know enough to speculate why Raymond fell for her. We would just be guessing. Just exploring the options and not ruling out that she may be classy. Any of the options can be true. Mature, humble, greedy, composed, money orientated? Only she knows….

      5. @jimmyszeto yeah, true. everything is hearsay and pretense unless you really know someone underneath all the pretty packaging. but Raymond did say he liked her for her maturity + EQ and this is definitely displayed when she answer questions from the press. so for this reason, I would like to give her the benefit of the a doubt and say she is like that in real life.

      6. @coralie
        Since Raymond is biased at the time for obvious reasons and only based on a handling of media questions I cannot give an opinion. Class need to be developed through a good home upbringing and education. Unless I have information regarding that, I cannot make an accurate enough of a judgement. I don’t believe that ‘class and composure’ can be developed overnight unless it is a false act. Family background and education does have a big influence on class. It is a natural progression….

      7. @jimmyszeto I don’t think anyone would know her better than he would, since they’ve been in a relationship for several years. But, maybe at the time he was biased, just like I’m biased now from seeing how she interviews.

        She didn’t develop overnight; I think it started from her career as a model and as an actress. I know a couple of model acquaintances and all of them have a certain grace and composure from being in the field for years.

      8. @coralie I have to agree with you 100 percent that money does not buy class, common sense, or decency, among other qualities. You have them or you don’t. Look at Donald Trump, his family. Son in law included and his White House staff.I not a fan of neither Raymond Lam or Karen’s. Yes, maybe she is a gold digger, maybe not. However, she has been accused of all sorts of things from a tender young age, and she has handled herself with a quiet dignity and maturity. If that a few women I can think of, they would be whining on about how can people be so cruel, and how they really love their boyfriend, yakkity, quality, yak, blah, blah, blah. Karen’s never complained, never said a word in defence of herself and handled interviews with class and discretion about her life, relationship with Raymond included. One must remember that Karen’s was not yet even twenty when she started dating Raymond. She also had to put up with the fact that Raymond’s family hated her. That is a lot of pressure. Add the fact that she was trying to get her foot in the ebiz door, becoming a full fledged adult , being in her first serious adult relationship, and being harassed by Raymond’s fanatic fans. Add the cruel, negative Weibo posts and media write ups about her.That is a lot of pressure. Whether she had a public image to protect or not, Karena handled it all with class. I have seen other young starlets throw public tantrums and whine about so much less than what Karen’s had to deal with.

  2. On a side note it would be nice to have Raymond and Ron interacting together on screen like Twin of Brothers again considering how they are best friends.

    It’s a bit quick how Raymond found another girlfriend imo. But let us see how things go for those two over time. Age gap is still noticeable but not as bad as the gap between him and Karena.

  3. Has anyone realized her Chinese name is so similar to Ron’s ex Viann Zhang 張馨予? lol

    She almost looks like Laurinda Ho in that picture but she looks like other celebrities too in other photos I saw. A bit heavy on the makeup. But yes, definitely she has similar style to Mavis Pan. The age gap is not too bad this time.
