An Interview with Yung Mei Ling: A Lighthearted Laugh
[Interview with Yawng]
Yung Mei Ling is a small girl. She had to go to Singapore for a concert two months ago and lost a lot of weight because she was too tired. She is a very co-operative actress who arranges photo interviews with journalists whenever she can, which is one of the reasons for her popularity.
A while ago, Yung Mei Ling was photographed naked in a series of photos. If she were any other artist, she would have croaked and hated the photographer who took the photos.Afterwards, she said, "I know I was careless that time, I can't blame them."
I thought Yung Mei Ling would not accept the photographer's invitation after this incident, but on the contrary, she had forgotten about the unpleasant incident. "What does it matter," she said, "if I get too worked up, I'll make it worse, I won't pursue it. If I don't pursue the matter, it will fade away and we can get along happily again. Why do we have to keep trouble with ourselves? You'll never be happy that way!"
Such a generous girl, no wonder Kent Tong is so nice to her! They have been dating for quite some time now. Kent looks like a very flamboyant boy, but in fact he is a man who needs stability. He also thought that Kent's incessant filming of "sex" movies must have made Yung Mei Ling unhappy and asked Barbara about it while we were taking pictures. I said, "Are you very unhappy with Kent's sex scenes?"
Yung Mei Ling's answer was very surprising to me .....
She said, "No! I am not unhappy! It's because you asked me if I was dissatisfied, so I answered casually to satisfy you." She went on to say, "What do we work so hard for? It's just a chance to make more money!"
And so this skinny little girl is working her butt off to get into films, to get on stage, and to be busy as hell, but she can handle it.
She said proudly, "What does it matter if you're skinny, you'll put on weight if you eat more."
"Doesn't it bother Kent to see you so skinny?"
"I can't help it."
"How's your relationship going?"
"Very well, very happy, keeping it up."
"Didn't I hear that the Kent went to the movies with another girl? He's got a new girlfriend?"
"You think he's got a new girlfriend?" I don't think so.
"Oh dear! How can you be so generous, so confident? Someone really saw Kent and Sandra go to the movies together, why didn't you ask?"
"Even you said that, we know each other very well! I couldn't go with them because I thought they were secretly meeting."
Yung Mei Ling is a "ghost girl", she's open to everything and always has faith in people!
"I thought you'd have a problem with that!"
"I don't believe in rumours. If you believe in people that easily in this business, you're asking for trouble."
She has not been in the entertainment industry for long, but she has become mature, worldly, and can see things through.
She nodded, "It's not just because I'm in the business, I'm just like that, I just want to be happy and ignore everything else. I don't care about other things, I don't want to get into trouble, I just want to do what I want to do, I want to be a happy person!"
Don't think that because she has become a TV star, she likes to dress up in fancy clothes.
She says with a smile, "If you want to take pictures of me, you'd better prepare a full set for me, so that I can come and go easily. I only like to wear the simplest clothes, T-shirts and shorts with sandals or sneakers, I just want to be comfortable and natural. Look at my dresses, they're all loose and simple."
"So you can save a lot of money on clothes and dressing up."
"I have to plan for the future too! That's why I don't like to spend a lot of money."
She's very good at planning for her future!
What does she like to play sometimes? She's a big fan of mahjong, she's happy as long as she has a mahjong to play with. She doesn't care whether the game is big or small. But when we told her she liked to play mahjong, she didn't say anything. She said that I was exaggerating and that she would be misunderstood as a "bad gambler", but I said that she was exaggerating when she thought that
I asked Yung Mei Ling if she had ever thought about getting married.
She said seriously, "Marriage? Is it a good idea to get married so soon? I don't think I'm ready to get married yet, at least two or three years later, when I'm more mature and better able to adapt to married life, it's easy to have a wedding ceremony, but to maintain a good married life, we need to work together, it's not an easy task."

訪翁美玲．輕鬆笑談篇
【訪談亞翁內文】
翁美玲個子小，前兩個月趕去新加坡演唱一次，還因為太累而一再減磅。她回來之後，抓緊時間約她，請她拍攝照片，她是個很合作的女藝人，只要有時間，她都安排讓記者拍照訪問，這是她受歡迎的理由之一。
前一陣巴巴拉，翁被拍了一輯「走光」的照片，若然換了別的藝人，早已呱呱叫並且恨死了那個拍照的攝影師，但巴巴拉很諒解人。
事後，她反而說：「我知道那一次是自己不小心，怪不
得人家，以後小心一些好了。」
還以為這一次之後，巴巴拉不再接受那位攝影師的邀請，卻恰恰相反，她已把那件不愉快的事忘掉了。
她說：「這有什麼關係，如果我太緊張，反而把這件事越弄越糟，我不追究事情便會
慢慢的淡下來，大家又可以愉快的相處，做人最重要是開心，為什麼一定要
把麻煩事纏著自己呢？這樣子永遠都不會快樂！」
如此大量的女孩子，難怪阿湯對她那麼好了！他們拍拖已有一段時間，阿湯的外表像個很花的男孩子，其實他是個需要安定的人，他要一個固定的女朋友，感情穩定下來，他便可以專心工作，不必老是為這些問題而弄至無心工作，他還希望在沒有煩惱的事困擾下過正常的拍拖生活。還以為阿湯不停的拍那些「性愛」電影，一定會引起翁美玲的不滿，趁我們拍照的空檔，問巴巴拉這件事。我說：「你很不滿意阿湯拍床上戲嗎？」
巴巴拉的回答是令我很意外的.....
她說：「沒有呀！我沒有不滿意呀！是你們問我是否不滿意，我便隨口答，以滿足你們嘛，其實有什麼不滿意呀，拍戲搵錢，只要有錢搵，又不過份就算了。」
她繼續又說：「我們那麼辛苦為了什麼？ 還不是爭取機會賺更多錢！」
於是這瘦小的嬌娃便拚命的接戲，接場子登台，忙得要命，但她挨得住。
她很自豪的說：「瘦有什麼關係，多吃一點便會胖起來，很快便恢復過來的了！」
「阿湯見你這麼瘦，不心疼嗎？」
「心疼也沒法子的了。」
「你們感情有進展嗎？」
「很好，很開心，保持著啦！」
「不是聽說那小子和別的女孩子去看電影嗎？他有了個新女友？」
「你以為他有新女友嗎？我倒沒有發覺。」唉呀！居然這樣大方，真是那麼信心十足？
「有人真的看見阿湯和吳君如一起去看電影呀，你怎麼不理也不問的呢？」
「連你也這樣說，吳君如和我們很熟的啊！我有事不能一起去，還以為他們偷偷約會
而已。」巴巴拉是「鬼妹仔」性格，什麼也看得開，對人總是很有信心的！
「還以為你們會因此而鬧意見呢！」
「不會的，我不信傳言的，如果在這個圈子那麼容易信人，那是自討苦吃，自找麻煩。」
小妮子在娛樂圈的日子並不長，但已變得成熟、世故，而且睇得通、看得透！
她點頭說：「不是入了這個圈才這樣的，我本來的性格就是這樣，只求開心，
不理其他的事，不好自尋煩惱，想做就去做，做個開心快活人！」
不要以為她當上了電視紅星，便愛將自己打扮得花枝招展。
她笑嘻嘻的說：「找我拍照最好替我預備全套，那我可以很輕鬆的來很輕鬆的走，平時我
只愛穿最簡單的衣服、T恤短褲加涼鞋或者球鞋，我只求舒適自然，你
看我的裙子全都是鬆身簡單的。」
「那麼你可以省下很多服裝費扮靚費了。」
「不錯，我也得為將來打算的啊！
所以不喜歡亂花錢。」
她倒很會為自己的將來打算呢！
不時她愛玩什麼呢？這人最迷麻雀，只要有麻雀打她
就開心的了，她不太計較打得大還是打得小，有的打
便成，坐在麻雀抬上她便很有滿足感。
但我們講她喜歡打牌，她卻不搭嘴，她說我如此誇張
，肯定被人誤會她「爛賭」，我說她這樣想才「誇張」
，打牌是最好的娛樂，只要不沉迷，有什麼不好！
我問巴巴拉有沒有想過結婚這問題？
她認真的說：「結婚？這麼快結婚好嗎？我覺得自己還未到要結婚的時候，最起碼過兩三年，那時候思想更成熟、更能適應婚姻生活，舉行結婚儀式很容易，但要好好的維持婚姻生活，就需要到彼此協力進行，就不是一件簡單的事。」
