[2011.03.22] SAMMI CHENG DECLINES TO ANDY HUI'S CONCERT GUEST

Sammi Cheng Sau Man after admitting getting back together with Andy Hui Chi On has not appeared in public in Hong Kong. Sammi yesterday wore pink to attend the Media Asia Hong Kong Film and Television Market press conference. Sammi said that this year she has been a guest of too many concerts so she would not be one for On Jai's May concert.

Sammi and Louis Koo Tin Lok yesterday attended the Media Asia press conference. They have been working on ROMANCING IN THIN AIR (GO HOI BUT JI LUEN II), earlier she even went to Shangri-La for the shoot. Speaking of the location, Sammi said that she did not suffer from high altitude illness but many workers succumbed. This time was truly very difficult to make a movie. She pointed out that the location was over 4,000 meters above sea level. She was already considered good. Goo Jai had it worse as he constantly had to go up and down. In days she will have to return there to continue the shoot and stay for a month. She had to prepare enough daily products like dry goods, feminine products and heat pads. She thought heat pads were not too environmentally friendly, but the local temperature dropped below freezing and was really too cold. Reporters jokingly asked if she had any "human heat pad". She played dumb and said, "Who? (Johnnie) To Kei Fung? (Would On Jai visit?) I am not talking about that. If I do I would say it on the microblog."

Was she worried about further earthquakes in Yunnan? Sammi said that instead she was more worried about the earthquake victims more. Yet during the earthquake she said many examples of the bright side of humanity. Although the disaster was painful, she saw some people who were willing to sacrifice their lives in truly demonstrations of humanity. She pointed out that aside from donating money she did not know what else to do. If any charity group will visit the Japan disaster zone, she will be willing to tag along and spread the gospel. She also had Japanese fans but recently she did not receive their letters. She believed that they were busy with saving themselves and surviving. She hoped that they would be able to pass this round. She pointed out that she suffered from depression for three years herself, ultimately it would pass.

Reporters said that she was no longer depressed but very sweet instead. She said, "Save me, I have said what I wanted to say." Would she be On Jai's concert guest? Sammi said that this year she has already been a concert guest four times and she is done now; however she would quietly attend. Who would sing ACTUALLY AM I IN YOUR HEART? with On Jai? She joked, "You! It's not my concert, how would I know?" Would she prepare soup backstage? She said, "I don't know how to make soup." She reportedly has been learning to cook for On Jai. Sammi said, "Really? I only eat instant noodles, I don't know how to cook."
