Joe's 'long term building' meant he would be staying in HK for a while
to pursue a career. Joe first tried looking for a new job by asking Sandra
Ng to ask Commercial Radio if anything was available, and Sandra told them that
he could still attract audiences. Joe tried to flatter Commercial Radio
by saying at a public event that RTHK "doesn't know how to respect
radio hosts." But Joe opened his mouth like a lion, asking Commercial
Radio to pay him a yearly salary of HK$1,500,000 (US$192,555). The radio
talk show will be about "issues straight from the heart" and
will be on Monday-Friday night. Joe's salary also needs to be higher
than Sandra's. Joe noticed that Commercial Radio still did not respond
to him, and he didn't hesitate to put Vivian on the table, hinting that
he and Vivian could be DJs and host a radio show.
Going to Commercial Radio and cable TV
The reporter tried to get the truth from Commercial Radio and verified
that the advertisement of Vivian doing a radio show was only a promotional
trick. Joe's actual partner on the show is Nicola Cheung San Yuet. The
exact date for the start of Joe's show hasn't been confirmed yet, but
it's not what Joe had previously said, "at the beginning of September."
Commercial Radio 903's head producer Wong Jung Hoi replied back in a
fax saying, "CR903 and Joe both believe sincerity comes first, and
money comes second. Joe is receiving a sincere price!" It was obvious
they were being vague about Joe's salary. The middle of next month would
be the earliest time that Joe would be able to start his show. He's waiting
for Commercial Radio to give their approval that his ideas aren't 'out'
before starting his show.
Joe not only went to Commercial Radio to look for a job. He also tried
to find a job at the HK cable TV station. He took the initiative to suggest
working as a host for the entertainment channel, with the program being
on three times a week at night, and the program would be like an 'entertainment
judge' talking about the things happening in the entertainment circle.
He wants to equally rise and fall with Sandra Ng. That's why Joe earlier
became high-key and accepted an interview by Sandra on her show, 'Truth
About Entertainment,' using something ordinary to get something better.
But cable TV still didn't have any reaction. The chief editor Yue Wing
San said, "It's just an interview! Will we ask Joe to be a TV host?
We don't know yet, but we did ask Eric Tsang Chi Wai's daughter, Tsang
Bo Yi, to be a host for a TV show. Cable TV really wants to ask Eric and
his daughter to both be hosts, and then it would definitely be attractive!"
It looks like it's not easy for Joe to get a job at Cable TV.

Joe did an interview for Sandra Ng, and his
attitude was unusual as he openly talked about his current girlfriend
and past lovers and also about his rival suitor.

In 1991, Joe was a popular DJ at RTHK. Today,
in order to give CR a good impression, he turned around saying RTHK
"doesn't know how to respect radio hosts." |

Vivian needs cash, selling apartment
Vivian naturally has to give her support when Joe came back to HK to find
a job. Actually, early this year, Vivian had tried selling her San Francisco
Towers apartment #2 located in Happy Valley. She bought the apartment in
1996 for more than HK$7,000,000 (US$898,588) and was selling it for about
HK$5,000,000 (US$641,849), but nobody was interested. During the middle
of this year, she lowered the price to HK$4,700,000 (US$603,338), but
it was still not possible to sell. However, this apartment was taken off
the selling market recently. It's believed that Vivian is a careful planner,
and she saw how 'China residents can visit HK as individuals, rather than
as part of a tour group,' which is helping to slightly improve the HK
economy, so she wants to look closely at the real estate market before
making a decision.
Mr. Wong, a real estate agent for a real estate company in Happy Valley,
said, "Yes, it's true there was an apartment owner from San Francisco
Towers who was recently selling their apartment and then later took the
apartment off the selling market. The owner said they want to take a closer
look at how the market is doing first!"
Joe has a part in Vivian's real estate
In 1991, Vivian and her mother Tse Lai Yue created a company called
Deekai Ltd and invested money in the high-rise apartment #4 at San Francisco
Towers in Happy Valley. In 1996, Deekai Ltd. bought the #2 apartment which
was on the same floor, and it's rumored Vivian and Joe live together in
this apartment.
In 1998, Joe's name was suddenly included in the list of board members
for Deekai Ltd., and his reported home address is confirmed to be the
#2 apartment. Since Joe is a board member of Deekai Ltd, he also becomes
part owner of Vivian and her mother's 2 apartments.

You can see the race track from San Francisco
Towers, which is located at a quiet location. It's no wonder Vivian
bought 2 apartments in 5 years.

In 1991, Vivian bought apartment #4 and lived there with her
mother.

Selling #2 apartment
In 1996, Vivian bought the #2 apartment which
was directly across from the #4 apartment. It's rumored she's living
with Joe in the #2 apartment. Earlier, this apartment was up for
sale and was then taken off the selling market. On the door of
the apartment, there was a note for the mailman to deliver all the
letters and packages to #4 apartment.

In 1991, Vivian and her mother created Deekai
Ltd. The address on the business registration for Vivian and her
mom said San Francisco Towers, Apartment #4.

In 1998, Joe's name was included in the list
of board members for Deekai Ltd., and his home address on the business
registration is the same apartment which Deekai Ltd. bought, the #2
apartment. |
Life in Canada was going downhill
In 1995, Joe sold "Yes!" magazine, earning close
to HK$10,000,000 (US$1,283,697) in cash. Vivian was in a rush to retire
and went to Canada to live together with Joe. These past 6 years, Vivian's
lifestyle was leisurely and relaxing, playing badminton, walking her dogs,
and in recent years, she's been concentrating on painting.
As for Joe, there were very few people who knew what he was doing in
Canada. Even his own father, Ngai Hong, didn't really know. One of Joe's
friends revealed, "He (Joe) is a very mysterious person. Nobody knows
what he's doing, unless he himself actually says what he's doing. Even
his own father has to listen to what other people are saying in order
to know what his son is doing!" Although Ngai Hong and Joe have a
father/son relationship, both of them have always been clear about the
separation of money and their relationship. Back then when Ngai Hong wrote
articles for "Yes!" magazine, he had to ask Joe to pay him for
publishing his articles. That's why Ngai Hong has never asked his son's
money condition.
According to rumors, Joe has always wanted to be the president of a publicly
traded company, and "Yes!" wasn't able to fulfill his desires.
Joe claimed himself as being one of the smartest people in Canada. A few
years ago, he saw the upsurge of I.T. and computer game software was profitable.
Joe put in lots of money on this investment, but unfortunately there still
has not been any profit made. For several years, he would continuously
put more money into his investment, but it is still not enough to turn
things around, plus the technology upsurge has lessened, and Joe's investment
was unfavorable. Since Joe couldn't become the second Bill Gates, the
CEO of Microsoft, and to prevent himself from losing more money, he would
have to go back to HK to taste success again and first become the second
'Cheng Dai Ban.'
During the interview with Sandra Ng, Joe said, "I have a lot of
things to do after returning to HK, and high technology is one of them.
Right now, HK has a 'sickness,' and I can't help HK to return back to
normal and didn't bring ginseng to visit him, but I still brought along
a bottle of grape juice." (meaning he didn't bring back lots of money,
just a little bit).

Joe and Vivian had rented an apartment in
Vancouver before and were living together. But because Joe was so
mysterious, he would often move to another house to avoid the reporters.
His actual home in Canada is still unknown.

Siu Kwok Wa: he wouldn't contact Joe again
|
Siu Kwok Wa and Joe's friendship was just
like brothers. Back then, both of them including DJ Leung Kai Cheung
would host a radio show on RTHK every week called "3 Lonely
Hearts." This program was very popular among younger men and
women. Nowadays Siu Kwok Wa and Joe are like strangers to each other.
|
|
Joe says he returned to HK to 'visit the sick,' but the truth is
he's trying to find money. Joe's former friend, Siu Kwok Wa, was
also not mad at Joe. Back then, they both started "Yes!"
In the end, they were no longer friends because of money matters.
When asked about Joe running off to Canada back then, Siu Kwok
Wa helplessly said, "This happened such a long time ago. I
don't want to talk about it! Am I still friends with him? I guess
so! However, there are many types of friends. Some friends you would
never contact them, and they wouldn't contact you either! Why don't
I contact him? Haha! I don't even have his phone number. Besides,
I have friends all over the street!"

Vivian took her cat to see the doctor by herself
Joe returned to showbiz to find a job. As Joe's girlfriend, Vivian has
always showed her support for him, either financially or by her actions.
But recently, Joe has only been focused on returning to Commercial Radio
to do work and frequently leaves his girlfriend by herself. Vivian was
by herself when she was walking on the street or when she was bringing
her cat to see the doctor. She was extremely lonely.
During this Tuesday on 9/16 at around noon, Vivian was alone leaving
her Happy Valley house and went to a petshop called
Miss Pet on Yik Yam Street. At that moment, Vivian looked worried and sad and would constantly
be talking on her cell phone. After going to the pet store to buy a bag
of cat medicine, Vivian walked quickly back home. At 6pm, Vivian came
out of her house again, and her Filipino servant came out holding a pet
cage. Inside the cage was a short-hair, brown color cat.
Soon after, Vivian drove her car to a pet clinic. It was obvious her
pet cat was sick, and it's not surprising that Vivian couldn't concentrate
on what she was doing that day. At night on Wednesday the 17th, Vivian
went with her servant and her cat again to the pet clinic to do a follow-up
examination. She looked even more worried compared to the day before.
After she parked her car in front of the clinic, she said to the reporter,
"Could I please trouble you to help me put in 45 minutes for the
meter? My cat has a fever and I'm in a rush to go inside so he can see
the doctor."
About half an hour later, Vivian looked happy as she came out of the
clinic. It looks like her cat wasn't sick anymore. She was polite in accepting
the reporter's interview and said, "I'm going to do a radio show
and be a DJ? No, I won't be temporarily, as I'm very busy now writing
a book about pets. The book should be released in December." The
reporter asked, "Are the rumors true about Joe failing in his investment
in Canada?" Vivian suddenly looked unhappy and was very surprised,
saying, "No... we didn't make any investments." The reporter
then asked, "Then were you selling one of your apartments?"
Vivian replied, "No, I still have the 2 apartments." After saying
this, Vivian quickly left. For the past few days, Vivian repeatedly had
to rush to places for her beloved cat and was endlessly worried, while
her boyfriend Joe didn't accompany her. Is getting more money more important
than anything else?

Joe's dirty works
Joe has a mysterious style of handling matters, and he
would do everything on his own. For many years, people have criticized
his bad behavior.
Using public media for his own personal matters
In 1991, Canti Lau Sek Ming openly admitted that he had good feelings
towards Vivian, making Joe's jealousy grow. Joe didn't hesitate
to use Siu Kwok Wa and his created "Yes!" magazine to
punish Canti with his writing, creating the 'Cancer Ming' nickname.
At that time, Canti was beginning to rise in his position at TVB,
but after this incident, Canti's popularity dropped and he wasn't
able to step foot in the HK entertainment circle. In the end, Canti
had to go to Taiwan.
Betraying his friend for glory/money
In 1995, Joe suddenly disappeared. It was rumored that after Joe
cheated Siu Kwok Wa out of all his company stocks, he immediately
sold the stocks to one financial group, earning more than HK$10,000,000
(US$1,283,697) and quickly left HK.
Can't be friends anymore and not talking
In 2000, Ruby Yiu Lok Bik revealed that Joe had tried to pursue
her. Joe also tried to deceive Ruby by saying his and Vivian's relationship
was only a brother/sister relationship and that Vivian wasn't his
real girlfriend and was only his girlfriend by name, making
Ruby believe what he said. During that time, Joe would often go
to the beach with Ruby to look at the stars. He would also record
the TV show which Ruby likes so she could watch it. But in the end,
Joe and Ruby separated. Joe immediately denied anything happened
and publicly announced that he is no longer friends with Ruby.
Won't take responsibility
In 1997, Joe and Vivian were living together in Vancouver. He accepted
an interview with 'Next magazine' while he was there and frankly
said, "I didn't think about marrying Vivian."

The days Vivian is with Joe
Vivian and Joe have been in love for 13 years. During that time period,
there were constant rumors about them separating and getting back together
again, but each time the starter of the crisis is the male, while the
female is being faithful for the whole journey. However, until this day,
she has yet to get married to Joe.
1985
Vivian gets to know the lead singer of the Raidas group, Thomas Chan Tak
Cheung. They dated for 6 years and then separated. Afterwards, there were
rumors about Vivian and Chris Wong Hoi Kan being together.
1986
Joe and Michelle Lee Ka Yan are in love with each other. After Michelle
won the Miss HK pageant in 1988, she separated with Joe, and during the
same year, Joe pursued Vivian.
1991
Joe was madly pursuing Vivian. In his own creation of the "Yes!"
magazine, there would often be news about Vivian and her pretty pictures,
and he was successful in making the beautiful person happy. During the same year,
Canti Lau tried to pursue Vivian, while Vivian and Leon Lai had rumors about
them after they acted in the movie "Fruit Punch." (Yes! Yat Juk)
1994
Vivian revealed to the media that she has a Japanese boyfriend. In the
same year during October, the gossip magazine found out Joe was living
with Monica Chan Fat Yung in Palm Springs, New Territories, HK.
1996
Joe and Vivian get back together again. At the same time, Monica Chan admitted
to being separated from Joe for 5 months.
1997
Vivian officially announces her retirement from showbiz. In the same year,
Joe was one of the judges for the Miss Asia pageant and he met Ruby Yiu
Lok Bik, who was married at that time.
1998
Joe wrote a rather unpleasant prologue for Ruby's pictorial
book, and because of one phrase, "Ruby and I reached a
very high point/level when we were talking together," this started
rumors between them.
2002
Vivian and Joe come back to HK for Chinese New Year. When they were being
interviewed by the reporters, Joe agreed to pass out lucky money to them,
but Vivian later denied being Mrs. Ngai.
