Yung Mei Ling is a gregarious woman. Easy-going

Interview with Yung Mei Ling.

I think she is the most relaxed and unburdened of the actresses, because the first time I saw her at the screening of "Youth in Flames" next to Kent Tong Chun Yip, she was wearing a white sports suit and pumps. She was dressed as a star, except for a pair of sunglasses, and this night, probably because it was night time, she even skipped the sunglasses. She didn't apologise, but she was very cheerful and quick, as she had spent the day at home resting and sleeping, but she slept through the night and had a dinner date with Kent Tong and his teacher. She was even more anxious than us, she wanted to be quick and she wanted to wear comfortable clothes for the photos.

She said, "It doesn't matter, just get it done quickly. I can wear whatever I want!"

I met a lot of female artists, but Yung Mei Ling was the most forthcoming and rarely lost her temper, and once it was over, she didn't care about it because it was only for an hour and she had promised to shoot another series next week. I asked her in passing. "Why don't we find some furs for you to wear and make a special photo shoot?"

She gestured and said "I don't like fur, but you have to try it on, I don't mind."

"Is Michael coming to pick you up for dinner later?" I asked, poking around because there were rumours that she had taken the initiative to woo Michael Miu when they were filming The New Adventures of Chor Lau-heung 楚留香之蝙蝠传奇.

"I'm not coming, I can't make it. He's going to stay with the teacher, so I'll go by myself later," she said. It sounds like she and Jaime Chik Mei Chun don't have any major problems, and it's unlikely that she and Michael Miu would form a 'love triangle'.

"It's crazy," she says. "Me and Kent Tong are fine. We've grown up and matured, and our relationship has become more stable. There's no 'love triangle'!" she says.

Her tone is not at all emotional, and her character is as lovely as in a drama!

"If I really love someone, how can I not dare to admit it? For example, I am in love with Kent Tong Chun Yip. I don't think it would affect my career. Even if it affects my career because of the openness of my relationship, I think it's worth it as long as we really love each other!"

The author asked again, "Since you are not married, why don't you go out with other men?"

"I believe that there are many men in the world who have better qualities than Kent Tong, but what I need is only one person. I believe there are many good things and good people, but how can I have them all? If I'm too greedy, I'll end up with both gains and losses, and I'll end up in trouble and suffering."

After the photo shoot, she went to change her jewellery. I saw that she was wearing a double-row diamond ring on her right ring finger. An engagement ring?" That's the "eight" thing about being a journalist!

She looked at it and shook her head, "No, I got it for myself. Every time I go to the stage, I buy something for myself, telling myself that it's hard-earned money, that I've worked hard for it, and that I won't spend it recklessly."

"If you're so frugal, you'll be a good housewife in the future," I joked.

"Not necessarily! It's easy to be on your own, but it's not the same when you're married and a wife. Hey! But don't think so far ahead, we have to make money," she replied.

When I looked at her, I saw that she had a beautiful 'beauty tip' in the middle of her hair. I said, "No wonder the company often asks you to wear costumes, you look great in costume."

She smiled sweetly, satisfied, thankful, and then said. "It doesn't matter, if it's not summer, it's great to do costumes. I don't have to take care of the hair, I don't have to take care of the clothes, they're all taken care of for me. I just don't have to worry about matching my clothes."

Yung Mei Ling's sweetness is not affected by the fact that she is not dressed up. It's a natural girlfriend for Kent...

"The new adventures of Chor Lau-heung" is going to be filmed for 40 episodes, and when it's over, Yung Mei Ling has already taken on another new serie. With so much work to do, she never complains about it, instead she can face it with ease.

翁美玲性格豪爽.平易近人

【訪談亞翁內文】
已經過了半小時,終於見Barbara,翁美玲趕到,我覺得她是女藝員裡最輕鬆,最沒有負擔的一個,因為第一次見她出現湯鎮業身旁看亞湯的「烈火青春」的試映,她是白色運動套裝加波鞋,這以後,她都一直是T恤短褲、背心短褲、平底鞋、涼鞋、球鞋,完全沒有機會見她作紅藝員大明星的打扮,除了一副太陽鏡,這一晚,可能因為是晚上,她連太陽鏡也省掉了。

她沒有刻意的道歉,但很爽朗,動作快捷,因為這一天她在家中休息睡覺,卻睡過了籠,晚上又約了湯鎮業和老師吃飯,中間只有一個小時拍照,她比我們更心急,一味要快,
一味要著舒服的衣服拍照。

她說:「無所謂,快快搞掂便成、好好好,
    想我穿什麼衣服也可以!」

見女藝員不少,數亞翁最爽快,也甚少發脾氣,事情一過了就不記在心上,因為只有一小時,她已答應下星期再拍一輯。我順口問她:
「不如找些皮草你穿,拍一輯特別的照片!」

她邊作狀邊說:「皮草,我不喜歡皮草,不過你要試試,我無所謂的。」

「仔仔一會兒來接你去吃晚飯?」我打探著問,因為最近又有 傳言,說她和亞苗拍「蝙蝠傳奇」的時候主動追求亞苗。

「不來了,時間來不及,他先去陪老師,等會兒我自己趕去。」
 她說。聽來她和阿仔之間沒有什麼大問題,與亞苗也不可能
 構成「三角戀愛」,起碼目前如此。

她說:「真是『黐線』,我和亞湯好好的,鬧情緒之後,
    我們都像長大了,成熟了,兩人的感情反而更穩定,
    何來『三角戀情』!」

她的語氣一點也不激動,性格之可愛就像在劇集裡一樣!

「我一向敢愛敢恨,若真愛上一個人,
 怎會不敢去承認?例如我與湯鎮業,
 何時有閃閃縮縮過?我不認為,
 這會影響我的事業,退一步來說,
 縱然因戀情公開,從而對工作有影響,
 只要真心相愛,我也覺得是值得的!」

筆者再問:「既然未結婚,何妨加入一個亞苗,多一個選擇嘛?」

想了一想,翁美玲說:「人,總沒有十全十美,我也相信,世上有很多男人的條件猶勝湯鎮業,但我需要的僅是一個人,既然選定了,就要相信自己的眼光。美好的事物,美好的人,我相信會有很多,但又怎能全部擁有,若然太貪心,到頭來有得有失,還不是自尋煩惱,苦了自己。」

一輯照片拍完,她去換首飾,見她的右手無名指上戴一支雙排四方鑽戒,正要脫下來戴手套,我趁機拿來看看,邊問她:「是阿仔的禮物?訂情鑽戒?」此乃做記者的「八」性!

她呶看咀搖頭:「不是,是我自己送給自己的,我每次去完登台,
        便會買一樣東西送給自己,告訴自己這是辛苦賺回來的錢,
        告訴自己此乃血汗換回來的,那便不會亂花錢的了。」

「如此慳儉,將來該是個很會持家的主婦呢?」我開玩笑說。

「不一定的啊!自己一個人可以好簡單,但結了婚做人家妻子便不是這樣的了,
 唏!不過何必想得那麼遠,我們還要抓緊時間搵錢。」她答道。

看看她補粧梳頭,發現她額上髮邊中間的「美人尖」好靚。
我說:「難怪公司常常要你怕古裝了,你梳古裝髮型甚好看。」

她甜甜一笑,是滿意,是多謝,接著說:
「無所謂,若果不是夏天的話,拍古裝是好極了,
 不必理會髮型,不必理衣服配搭,全有人弄妥給我,
 只要不必煩衣服配搭就很好的了。」

不特意的打扮不影響Barbara的甜美靚樣,
亞湯對著的是一個自自然然的靚女朋友...

「蝙蝠博奇」要拍四十集,完了,亞翁已接另一新戲,要出外搵銀是明年的事,
 這麼多工作,可從沒見亞翁埋怨,相反都能從容地面對,她是天生吃這一行飯的。
