新加坡部落格大奖

今天老朋友寄了则电邮给我,里面贴上了2008年OMY的“新加坡部落格大奖”网址。他 写道:“老弟!你入选了“最佳本地名人部落格”头二十名喔!你那些文章有人要看么?整天都写那么严肃沉闷的题目,有时候读了之后,反而心情低落,真的想一 枪毙了你!好心你啦,写多一点我们不用头脑的文章,让我们笑一笑,开开心就够了啦。。。。。”Received an email from an old friend today. He attached the URL of a website called ‘OMY’ with its 2008 ” Singapore Blog Awards” finalists list. His message basically said:” hey man! You were voted into the top 20 for the “best local celebrity” category! Why in the world would anyone wants to read your entries? I mean, its always serious and boring, and at times I even get melancholic after reading them. PLEASE!! Can you please write something that does not
require our brains, and just let us have a good laugh.”

读了之后,对入选二十名内倒有点惊讶。因为我知道我的博客绝对不是一个以轻松阅读为主的 博客,访客更不是成千上万的粉丝,而是志同道合,支持我的好朋友们。在新家里,部落格的主体是“我的世界”,顾名思义,就是跟大家分享我的内心世界。因为 大家在荧幕上看到的我,绝对不是斌辉,而是我每一部戏的剧中人物,无时无刻的都在蜕变的虚构人物。I was pleasantly surprised after reading his email, because my blog is hardly a place where one does light heart readings. Its not exactly a place for fans either but rather, for people with common interests and who support me. In WordPress blog, the title “my world”, stated that its about my inner thoughts, being well, me. It would be unlike my screen persona, which were inconsistent because my roles are always changing.

很多人说过,都觉得我是一个距离感非常强烈的人,难以接近,更难了解。所以我的部落格,记载的是我内心的感觉,看法,感触,领悟。我认为,内心真诚的交流,远胜于表面的琐碎事件。你们在这里读到的一切,是我内心世界的笔录,毫无包装,看到什么,就是是什么,这么简单。Many people have said that I give people an impression of being distant, unapproachable, incomprehensible. So my blog is an introspective diary of my feelings, opinions, emotions and epiphanies. I always believed that sincere and honest interaction transcends superficial musings of everyday life. What you see here, is a view to my inner being, undecorated. What you see is what you get, its that simple.

咱们现在这个家,已经成为好多朋友聚合的地方。好高兴大家能够再这里认识新朋友,彼此了解,互相勉励。坦白说,有时候我读着各位弟弟妹妹的评论,都会情不自禁地破口大笑,因为你们真的是太可爱了! My blog now, has become a meeting place for fellow readers and friends. It is a joy indeed to see everyone getting to know each other, and encouraging each other in times of need. And to be honest, there were so many instances where I burst out laughing after reading some of your comments,because you people are just so funny!

赢不赢无所谓,最重要的是,我们会继续在这个家,一起交流,一起成长

It doesnt really matter if I win or not,because the ,mant scene can sitll can

好歌5

大家好,一阵子没上来了,“叮当神探”正在拍的如火如荼,自己的时间也少了。想在短短几 分钟内,给大家分享一首好歌。很不幸地,两位天才都已经过世了,但是这首合唱是前所未有的。一个是soul歌教父,另一个是歌剧天王,然而在同一首歌里, 两者仍然配合的如此美妙。James Brown vs. Luciano Pavarotti.好好享受。

Hello there, its been a while because the filming for my new show have been fast and furious. I would like to spend the next few precious minutes to share a lovely song. Unfortunately both have passed on. But this unprecedented song is the synergy between the Godfather of Soul and the Opera Genius. Totally different styles, but yet so seamlessly perfect. James Brown vs.Luciano Pavarotti. Enjoy.

路1 the path1

最近都一直忙着拍我的新戏“叮当神探”,场数超多,时间少了,睡眠少了,跟家人朋友见面的时间也少了。好不容易,几天前抽出了一个小时半,和几个许久没见朋友一起吃饭。

My new show have really kept me busy recently. Sleep in scarce and time spent with family and friends has become a somewhat precious commodity. It was only a few days ago, was I able to manage some time for dinner with old friends.

哥儿们都是与我年龄相似,有的已经结婚生子,有的还是 钻石王老五,但大家在事业上,都辛苦地闯出了一定的成绩。谈话间,大家都提出自己对未来的期望和计划。轮到我的时候,大家都不禁问我大同小异的问题:“你 还想在这行呆多久?在新加坡当演员是必须有后备计划的。毕竟市场是如此的小。等你老了之后,就会被公司遗弃。到时,什么都没有。”

My friends and I are similar in age and have all attained a certain level of success in our chosen profession. Some are married with children, while some are still happily single. As the evening grew, we began sharing our hope and expectation about the future. When it was my turn, the common question was: ” how long do you intend to stay as an actor? In Singapore, an actor always need a backup plan because the market is just too small for sustainable growth. Becasue when you are no longer useful, the company will simply forsake you and you shall be left with nothing.”

回想起来, 我那时候的答案是我并不能肯定我会永远在演戏的行业呆留,但我只希望能够我离开之前,回顾一切的时候,可以对自己有所交代。我曾经在06年6月里的文章“ 演员的心声”里写过:

I remember telling them that I wasn’t really sure if I was going to stay indefinitely, the only thing I have any certainty is the hope that when i do leave, I would be able to justify everything I would have done to myself. In June 06′, I wrote in an article:

“身为演员,期待的,不外是一个机会,
一个能够充分发挥演技的机会。
一个能够给与自己有所满足感的机会。
一个能够让自己感到骄傲的角色。
坦白说,我一点都没有做到。”

” As a actor, an opportunity is what we desire,
An opportunity to maximize our acting ability.
An opportunity for a sense of satisfaction.
An opportunity for a sense of pride in what we have done.
Honestly, I have not done any of the above.”

光阴似箭,如今一转眼已经两年了。现在的我,跟两年前有何分别?

Time flies and 2 years later, am I any different from two years ago?

心态不一样了。两年来,无时无刻地提醒自己,不是没有 机会,而是如何找到它。现在的心态,已经不是以交货为准则。而是如何把角色从剧本里的白纸黑字塑造出一个有血有肉的人物,创造出一个真实,但又有新鲜感的 性格。每一部新戏,都隐藏着富有挑战的可能性。从“幸福双人床”的小气男人,到“保家卫国”憨厚老实的爱情白痴,“黄金路”的超级大恶人,到“迷途”的 邋遢深情男子“绝对佳人”的住家男人,各有千秋,各有不同。

My mentality is entirely different now. For the past two years I kept reminding myself that it was not a question of whether I was given the opportunity, but rather how could I find it. It is no longer about attaining the minimum standard required, but about how I could make each and every character distinctive from each other and yet realistic. Every new show presented a new challenge. From the nit-picker in ” Mars vs. Venus”, to the earnest commando in “Homour and glory”, from evil murderer in ” Golden path” to the melancholic cop in ” the Truth” and the gentle house husband in ” La femme”. Each had their differing qualities, and distinctively different.

每一场戏每一句对白,都是机会。重点在于我们看不看得到,想不想看得到。

Every scene, every line, offers an opportunity. It not a matter of whether we can see it, but rather, it is about whether we want to see it at all.

我的父亲 My Father

小时候,生活在一间小房子里。家里就两个房间。父母一 房,两个哥哥,我和小妹四人,都睡在另外一间房里。一边墙,是一张双层床,老大楼上,老二楼下。另一边,是一张抽屉似的睡床,到了晚上,就将隐藏在床下的 第二张床拉出来睡。老四上面,老三我睡下面。每晚,大家虽然挤在一起,但还过得蛮融洽的。
I remember when i was little,we lived in a small flat with two bedrooms. While my parents slept in one, my two older brothers, my younger sister and I slept in the other. On one side of the room, was a double decker bed, where the two older boys occupied. And on the other, sat a pull-out bed, on which my sister slept, and of course that left me to sleep on the bottommost section. Crowded, but comfortable.

家里不是属于富裕之家,没有大汽车,大洋房,但倒是三 餐温饱,该有的东西,父母都会尽力给我们。细想之下,我们应该是可以算是小康之家吧。爸爸每天上班之前都会弄早餐给我们哥儿们吃;牛油面包,热饮料打入一 个生鸡蛋,虽简单,但充满了应有的营养成分。屋里的一切大小,爸爸也打点地有条有理。小学时的日子天真无邪,蛮写意的。
We were not a rich household, there was no big car nor house,but we had what we needed. Every morning before work, Dad would make us simple but nutritious breakfast; butter toast, and hot milo with a raw egg inside. And everything was always kept in order, Dad wouldn’t have it any other way. In retrospect, primary school days were happy, contented.

中学时期,想法开始成长。开始质问自己为何没有办法和有些朋友一样,可以有司机接送,可以生活在大房子,可以每年出国旅行。年少无知的愚昧,令我觉得自己 缺少了生命中应该拥有的幸福,认为那些我向往的东西是我也因该拥有的。渐渐的,对生活中的不满逐渐的入侵我心,令我想摆脱家里的一切。一阵子,还怪过爸爸 没有赚多一点钱,来让孩子们可以有更多东西。长大后,才知道到自己是那么的自私。那个年代,一个人照顾一家六口,是多么的困难,但他从来都没有一句怨言, 我有什么权利不满?
In secondary school, I began to question if i were missing out on all the worldly possession that some of my friends had; car, living in a bungalow, and the yearly overseas trip. My ignorance blamed it on my father for not making enough to allowed such luxuries, and it made me embarrassed about ourselves. It was only after some years later did i realize the extent of my selfishness, because father had to support a family of six with his single income, and he never complained, so what right did I have?

爸爸是七个孩子中的老大,从小就得负起照顾六个弟弟们的责任,是一个孝顺的好儿子,一个认真的大哥。在我们家,可以说是华人社会的传统父亲吧。,他是家中的严父,只要一瞪眼,我们四个小瓜就如面对克星,大话都不敢多说一句。父亲从来是不会把慈爱挂在嘴边,也没有跟我们有太多肢体上的接触,就只是默默地耕耘,做好工作赚钱养家,以最古老的方式来表达他对孩子们的关怀。
Dad was the oldest of seven boys, he was a filial son, responsible brother who took care of his younger brothers. And at home, he was a true blue Asian father. A stern master of the house, a single stare would render four of us paralyzed with fear and into silence. Dad was never one to verbalize his concern, and hardly generous with physical closeness. He worked hard, took care of the family in the traditional way, which was the only way he knew how.

二十多年后,孩子们都长大了,爸爸也已经退休了,在家里照顾咱们家里的小狗狗,时不时也跟老朋友们喝喝茶,打打乒乓,或跟妈妈外出,不必再为生活养家拼搏。但是,我知道他还是无时无刻地为我们操心的,不管我们多大,多成功,对爸爸来说,我们永远是他的小孩子们。
Twenty over years on, we have all grown up, Dad is retired and relaxing at home, taking care of our little dog, meeting up with old friends, playing his favourite table tennis and hanging out with Mom. there is no longer a need to slog for a living, but as always, the children’s welfare is still the top priority in his mind. No matter how old, successful we may be, to Dad, we will always be those kids still running around him.

长大后,我了解了。我虽然没有超高级的物质生活,但我拥有爸爸以青春换来的家庭温暖。爸爸虽然从来未曾对我们说过“孩子,我爱你。”三个字,但他无言的关心和牺牲,已经超越了那三个字可以包容的境界。
Being much older, i now understand that although I was not given the materialistic luxuries that I yearned for when younger, I was given a stable and caring family that Dad traded his entire youth for. He never said ” I love you”, but his silent dedication and sacrifice, have already transcended the demarcation of those three words.

父亲对孩子的爱,是无条件的。
A Father’s love for his children, is unconditional.

爸爸,你不必说,我知道的。
Dad, you do not have to say anything, because I already know.

终于 Finally

大家好!那天电脑恢复正常之后,接下来两天又短路了!超郁闷!所以今早再次给电脑做了个全身检查,终于发现问题不在电脑,而是调制解调器!把它换了之后,问题终于解决了!

Hello everyone! After the temporary recovery a couple of days ago, my computer went bonkers yet again! I was so frustrated! I decided to give it a full checkup again this morning and after much trial and error, I finally concluded that the problem was not the computer but the modem! I changed it and now everything is good to go again

不好意思,先在这里道个,因为我知道我上一则文章之后,好多朋友都非常期待我回家报到。所以想在这里跟大家说,“我真的回来了!”

I feel really bad, because I know that many of you were waiting most anxiously for me to come back after my most recent post. But now I can confidently tell you, that I am really back!

先暂时一别,很快又会跟大家见面的。。。

That’s pretty much all for now, we shall meet again soon...

我回来也!

各位兄弟姐妹们,好久不见。过去几天都没有办法上网, 因为电脑出了点问题。每次只能够在网待上五分钟的时间就被踢出去。搞来搞去也找不出为什么,好郁闷!由其是上星期五美国那边公布了最新的失业指数后,全球 股市猛跌,满城风雨,无法上网查看最新的经济状况,可真的是惊心胆跳。

今天早上,突然间又一切如常,终于可以再上网了。虽然不了解其中道理,但那管他那么多!先向大家报道!好多朋友留言问候,关心十足,不好意思,让大家担心了。

好想写多点东西,但得赶去开会了,今晚也会有篮球练习,所以看得到明天才能跟大家分享我的近况。。

要耐心等多一天啊!

好歌4

话不必多,把灯关了,闭上眼睛。享受。
Let silence prevail,turn off the lights,close your eyes. And enjoy.

有时候,在简单中找到优美,方为最高境界。我明白了,你呢?
Sometimes, to be truly enlightened, is to find beauty in simplicity. I understand now, what about you?

六一儿童节

六一节的孩儿们,让大哥我在这里祝你们快乐。在人生旅途中,难免会有挫折和失望。但是只要你们坚强面对,永不言败,最后的成功将会属于你们的。

童年,应该是我们人生中最快乐的时光,因为它是天真无邪,无忧无虑的。我们长大之后,就会身不由己的被卷入身边事物的发展和社会的压力。我们唯一可做的,就只是必须无时无刻的提醒我们自己千万不要失去童年的真挚。

因为如此,我出国拍照时,最喜欢拍摄小孩子们的照片。因为,他们一刹那间天真的笑容,将在我记忆中永存。

柬埔寨小和尚在念经时,见到我在拍照,竟然偷偷地笑了

槟城小妹妹,害羞不得,我逗了一会儿,才哈哈大笑。。

朋友的小瓜,别看他笑眯眯的样子,可是的绝世大坏蛋!厉害的师奶杀手!

说到可爱天真的娃儿,少得了这位令我心软的侄女儿吗?

全世界的孩子们,希望悲伤远离你们,旦愿你们永远快乐。

希望

今天读到Sandra妹妹的留言,提到她将与朋友到四川灾区内,帮忙照顾孩子们。在这里,希望大家可以给她鼓励和支持。让我们一家人,给她克服一切的力量!

我是san.

常常在你新家留言的sandra
还记得吗?我曾经告诉你,我可能会和几位朋友在吉隆坡筹办筹款活动。经过我 们多日的会议,决定亲自到四川走一趟。我们谈了很多,但是觉得在这里筹款,我们只有人力,没有财力。举办筹款,究竟可以筹到多少款项?最后,我们觉得最实 际的,是到四川做义工。我们不会任何医疗知识,但是我们可以教导那里的小孩读书,陪他们聊聊天,可以帮忙煮食,男生可以帮忙重建灾区,可以到那里尽点绵 力。我们一行9个人。6男三女。我们的力量很渺小,但是真的很希望为那里的小孩尽点力 。而我们能做的也只有这些。

这几天,我们各个都在做各自负责的事。就有三位男性朋友负责机票 ,交通,到那里后怎样到达灾区。我们会自己携带帐篷,而我们女生就负责买一些小孩的文具,还有一些智力游戏,好像百万富翁, uno,蛇棋,黑白棋之类的。另外的三位男性朋友就负责买些干粮,矿泉水,罐头。也在身边尽量呼吁朋友捐款。也在交代各自的工作。估计这趟我们会呆至少两个星期,虽然很少,但是大家都要工作,没办法请那么多假期。 但是两个星期多多少少也会帮到他们吧。

在这个过程中,我们遇到了不少挫折,但是都被我们解决了。也遇到了形形色色的人,有些朋友非常支持我们,但是也有一些对我们冷嘲热讽的朋友,他们问我,你又不是男生,你到那里可以做些什么?对。我不是男生, 但是女生也有可以尽力的地方。

很庆幸,我们的父母和家人非常支持我们。这让我们都觉得非常安慰。 斌辉,想问你,有没有什么话有我帮你带给那里的小孩。你之前在中国拍摄过《封神榜》。我想那里的灾民都认识你吧。或者能不能请你用手机录制一个video。说些鼓励的话给四川的小孩呢?然后可以用email send 过来给我?本来原定这个星期五启程。但是出了一点问题。会延迟到下个星期三启程。(2008-05-29 23:35:49)

博主回复:

Sandra,
你和你的朋友们令我感动,因为你们将亲身进入灾区帮忙。从你的言语中,我可以感觉到你们身边有很多人不是很赞成你们的决定,也可能有人认为你们就算去了也不会有什么显著的作为,因此让你们怀疑自己的决定。

我想说的是,个人的心意虽小,但只要你们一群人有着同样的意念,将会滴水成河,形成一股不可小觑的力量。加上各地有着同样决定的爱心勇士们,你们将会成为四川小孩子们的守护星,照顾着他们。你是女孩子又何妨?只要你有心,有意,就会有番作为!
我在中国的戏不多,唯恐他们早把我的黄飞虎给忘了。如果你愿意的话,就帮我把几句话带给小孩子们吧。

“孩子们,别惆怅,别绝望。当你感觉你被黑暗包围着,看不到前方的时候,闭上你的眼睛,伸出你的双手,继续向前踏步。别害怕,因为你会感觉到,只要你们活着,咱们各地亿万的同胞都会站在你们背后给你们希望!只要你们不放弃,我们永远都不放弃你们!”

守着你

刚才在午夜时分,开车回家时,音箱刚好播出我以前在“孩有明天”里唱过的一首歌,歌名叫“守着你”。

回想起来,我戏里是一名在医院专为小孩子们看病的医生。有时为了让病危痛苦的孩子们开心,会作小丑打扮,变魔术,弹吉他,唱歌来令他们快乐。我也在戏里说过:“虽然是短暂的,但如可让他们有片刻的喜悦,我也是义不容辞的。”

我挺喜欢歌词的,因为里面有我们人与人之间淡淡的渴望和承诺。
我说过我们要坚强,在这里,想跟大家分享。让我们告诉坚强的同胞们,我们会守着你的。

“平静的天空,象美丽的图画
我睁大眼睛去寻找,寻找一颗星
动人的旋律,无界限的空间
宇宙中最亮的,就是那颗守护星

有一天,你对我说,童话的梦会成真
请不要
忧虑,这个天空属于你
明天曙光依旧会来

有一天,我对你说,你是我的守护星
未来的日子,不必害怕
你将真情给我,我会用心来回应你”

我们不哭,我们守着你。

莎朗斯通,你是白痴吗?

今天在报章上看到了一则关于过气已久的美国艺人莎朗-斯通(Sharon Stone)在 5月22日出席戛纳为艾滋病筹款的慈善晚会,在红地毯上被记者问起对四川汶川地震的看法时的报道。她把事件形容为一件“有趣的事情”并接着提出这是中国在藏独事件的“因果报应”。

细看之下,她的表情非常的嚣张,不屑,眼神四处漂移,可以很明显地看得出,她虽然知道发生了地震,但她是完全不知道其中细节的。所以,她根本是在打肿脸皮充胖子,混水摸鱼,草草带过主题之后,马上把注意力拉到她“好朋友”哒赖喇嘛身上,说出了一连串的胡言乱语。

对于藏独,苏丹达尔富尔,奥运火炬等事件,中国都受到西方国家四面八方的数落,夹攻。好莱坞的艺人纷纷用各种借口批评中国,甚至以为可以以他们的“知名度”来对中央政府和中国人民施加压力,来达到他们个人的目的和私利。很多美国的网友说,在那边,反中已不再是所谓自由的问题了,因为它已经成为潮流的一部分,正如他们说的“its just cool to stand up for something,anything.”

我们不用大声跟他们对骂的。我们也不用跟那些自以为是的西方演员导演艺人一般见识。当他们发现每个华人都抵制,封杀他们时,他们就会了解自己什么都不是。

坚定的决心和无声的抗议,远胜过那些人无知的呐喊。

昨晚,我们新加坡电视台举办的“温情无国界,让爱川流不息”圆满的结束了。节目尾声时,我们全国上下,总共筹到了大约七百万元(相等于三千五百七十三万人民币)的筹款。到了今天早上,捐款数字更达到新币九百五十万!( 相等于大约四千八百四十万人民币)

在这里,想向新加坡全国上下的捐款者们,大声地说。。“谢谢”!!谢谢你们的慷慨解囊。

昨晚,真的是感触良多,过去几个星期,都有非常关注地 震的一切。在报章,互联网,和其他媒体上,都看到好多好多感人又痛心的报导。昨晚又再次的看到了陈坚,蒋敏,蒋晓娟,还有那位给她孩子留下简讯的年轻妈妈 的片段时,我的眼眶不自觉地湿了。转头一看,跟我在台后的同事们,心情都非常的沉重,没有以往做其他节目时的谈天和说地,只有感动和痛心。

我还记得我在受访时说过的一段话:“痛苦是必然的,但 是我们现在更重要的是要克服我们心中的悲痛,万众一心,为死者带来安宁,为生者带来坚强。”节目虽然已经结束了。但是我坚信,节目的精神将会继续地在我们 心中永存着。正如那位母亲的留言简讯:“亲爱的宝贝,如果你能活着,一定要记住我爱你。”

中国的兄弟姐妹们,我们不哭!四川加油。中国,加油!
