YuPen's News

On November 25th, YuPen visited HK again. These are the translation which I got off another site of his words to the reporter who interviewed him:


YuPen's Words: "When Nicky Wu, Benny Chan and I was in Xiao Hu Due, we were only in our teens. Our records sold pretty well, and we were pretty popular. But we were too young then, we didn't think about furthering our career. And also with three people, there isn't much room for personal growth, but for bad news, it's better to have three people take it together.

When I took HZGG, it was just a job. I didn't think it could help me this much. Now I'm in HK, all the fans come and greet me, and the reporters flashing their cameras and asking questions. So I tell myself, I'm really popular now!

When Xiao Hu Due broke up, Benny went serve in the army, Nicky and I went to school and had a career on the side. I actually came to HK a couple of years ago with a Cantonese album. But I didn't speak Cantonese, and didn't know how to talk to the media, and no one cared about me.

Nicky Wu is like a brother to me. We grew together and talked about everything. Even when I'm so busy here in HK with filming, I still call him. Benny Chan and I are friends, he's in Taiwan working, and his career is going well. Jimmy Lin and I are not the "brother" type of friends, but we did "The Handsome Siblings" together, and we worked well. Takeshi and I were in two movies together, I don't really know him that well, but I know he's doing really well in Japan.

I know all of you want to know more about my relationship with Zhao Wei and Lin Xin Ru. To tell you guys, Xin Ru and I are really close friend, we talk to each other a lot. When we call each other on the phone, she calls me big brother and I call her little sister. There is nothing more then that. Beside talking on the phone, we also know how to use ICQ to communicate with each other.

When it comes to things other than work, my daily activities are actually the same as any other 27-yrs-old guy. I like to be free and relaxed, go dancing at night, drink a little (^_-). But recently, it is the busy time in my career, basically I don't have time to play. Most of my entertainment is going on line before bed and playing ICQ, as a kind of relaxation."

(This one is the most difficult for me so all I can do is summarize it as best as I can). This last part talks about what they usually wear to take picture. Alec likes to wear causal clothes, especially from the brand Bathing Ape. A lot of stars like to wear that brand. Alec believe that his clothes should match with the background or location of the studio set.
