TVB held a New Year Group Celebration Carnival yesterday and company boss Sir Run Run Shaw made a personal appearance to enjoy the lion dancing before playing bingo with the several hundred staff present and enjoying the fun. The event was also attended by the Miss Hong Kong winners Aimee Chan, Janet Chow and Koni Lui as well as executives Virginia Lok and Catherine Tsang.
The event is held annually and several lions made an appearance at yesterday’s show. Sir Run Run was accompanied by Aimee and Janet as he enjoyed the show in the audience. He was in good spirits and often applauded the performers, then he stroked the lion heads and had a photo taken with the fortune gods. Sir Run Run said strongly: “I wish all our colleagues good health, may your wishes come true, have the vitality of the dragon and horse, everything goes your way and wishing you prosperity.”
Sir Run Run then joined the staff in playing bingo, with assistance from Aimee, but he was four numbers away from the grand prize. After the game, Sir Run Run was led out by the ladies and security guards and he turned to Aimee and Janet and said: “It will be next year before long!” The girls replied: “We will see you soon then!”
Afterwards, Aimee and Janet were asked what they spoke to Sir Run Run about and they smiled that he talked about the number card that he has and when the number six was called out, he said: “This is me!” [Sir Run Run’s nickname is ‘Uncle Six’.] Aimee says that Sir Run Run recognised her and she complimented on how good his English pronuniciation was and how charming he is. Talking of this year’s lucky packets, Aimee smiles that she has done quite well and she has kept all her lucky packets under her pillow, so she is yet to open them all. [by mv_288]
