You know for the longest time without looking at the characters, I thought Raymond's chinese name meant "Wind" until recently I found out it meant "Peak" as in a Mountain Peak.
Which is probably a lot better than just wind because's he's the tip top of the mountain.

In chinese language, there are a lot of words that sound the same but have different meaning and are written differently. The following characters all have the sound 'foong':-Originally Posted by mini_mouse
风 - wind
峰 - peak
丰 - abundant
封 - envelope
锋 - sharp point
疯 - crazy
枫 - maple tree
蜂 - bee
峯 - peak
These are only some of the more common words. There are many more rarer words that were pronounce as 'foong'.

Phew! Cherrie,Originally Posted by cherrie
For a while I thought I was wrong on the character again because on the TVB programme, the character for his name (not surname) was a lot different. I couldn't find it in the dictionary at all. I guess it is really rare or it's a traditional character.
So is there any more news on when he releases a CD?

Raymond Lam, Vincent Zhao and Myolie Wu are currently filming new TVB series “Tai Chi” in Shanghai. When talking about this series TVB fa dan Myolie Wu, Raymond expressed that he has already cooperated with quite a lot of fa dans before. So there isn’t always a refreshing feeling anymore. Instead, he wants to cooperate with Mainland stars as he hopes that it will create different sparks.
TVB’s grand production “Tai Chi” is proceeding very smoothly and fast in Shanghai. Earlier there were reports that male lead Raymond ‘bought’ a girl Mei Mei with a month salary of 2000 yuan. The two of them shared an intimate meal together, they even shared a warmth bag and gloves. Their relationship seems to be more than normal. Raymond clarifies that their relationship is only that of a boss and a subordinate. Although it was a front page coverage, Raymond is still very popular in the Mainland. Every time he appears at a place there would be many people following the stars (more specifically Raymond).
Filming fighting scenes: a taste of suffering
Filming “Tai Chi” Raymond has suffered many hardships, he performs many fighting scenes himself. Therefore, he is often hurt and bruised, he said: “Because this is my first time filming a real kung fu series. Earlier, I have only filmed wuxia series, so in the many fighting scenes you didn’t need to use your full strength. However, this time you have to use real power, therefore you will easily get hurt. Fortunately, Vincent is looking after me and I have had about ten classes of martial arts, so it makes it a bit easier when doing the fighting scenes.”
Raymond plays the son of a wealthy family in the series who is infatuated by Myolie. He frankly said that filming with TVB fa dans doesn’t give him a refreshing feeling anymore. Therefore, he hopes he can film Mainland series, he said: “I have already cooperated with all TVB fa dans, therefore I really hope that I can cooperate with Mainland female artists. And in reality? A girlfriend, even if I like someone then what? But I don’t dare to think about this question, because everywhere in Hong Kong there is paparazzi. I don’t even dare to eat out with a girl anymore.”

I'm not really interested in Tai Chi! I think this serie won't do well but that is my opinion! I'm looking forward to LFD because it seems more refreshing!! =)
I have read an article somewhere that his next show will be a mainland china production, but not sure if it's a TVB collaboration.
Mainland China paparazzi is just as bad as HK, or at least they are getting there now.
