This time I\u2019m skipping ahead and talking about those years when I was working as a model and making movies. This experience influenced how I handled my work in the future and planted the seeds of business… How did I get into this industry? Everyone knows me as the younger sister who plays Chen Xiaodong in “First Love, Infinite Touch”, but I actually entered the industry earlier. The first print advertisement was shot in the summer of 1994, because my sister gave my photo to a familiar photographer, and he was looking for another girl to shoot a fashion advertisement for Theme (Note: The Hong Kong fashion brand Theme had more than 60 chain stores in Hong Kong, 40 in Taiwan, and 20 in the mainland… It was listed in 1994, with a market value of 4 billion.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An interesting story about the first job that turned into a “pineapple”?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The commercial was shot with the boss’s daughter, her name was Jeanette (Lai Huanzhen), who was the heroine in one of the Sunshine Lemon Tea commercials. At that time, she was very avant-garde and stylish, with a porcupine hair style. I still remember that morning at an Apartment in Tai Hang Road, where I had a make-up set. A makeup artist helped me get Faye Wong’s “pineapple head”. To be honest, the hair style was pretty good, but I felt it didn’t match the look at all and “didn’t it look pretty”, so I shed a few tears… Afterwards, the photos turned out to be beautiful. I went on the subway light box, and my classmates also saw it. The whole experience was very interesting, and it cost $2,000 HKD. At that time, it was a very good job!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
