I don't want to become more famous because I don't have any privacy anymore and I hate that very much. Outside of work I just want to be an ordinary person, not to be recognized, not a monkey on the street when everybody is looking at you.

Tony Leung Chiu WaiThe most difficult thing is that I don't speak Mandarin and I had this experience - of working in a language that I don't understand - before and it's really horrible.

Tony Leung Chiu WaiMy father left us three times when I was between three and six. You just couldn't tell - suddenly one day he would leave and then maybe he would come back after six months without telling you why. And then maybe he would disappear again after a year and it's very difficult to take when you are four or five. You just don't know how to handle it and nobody in the family wants to talk about it. My mother didn't know how to tell us and she needed to work because we needed money to live.
