Jack Neo's Money No Enough

Just went for a Movie Premeire, 30 July last wednesday.

Went with dear, and also friends KL, Cyn,her bf Jonkee, Weijie, Mingjian and Tammie.

Realised that Jack Neo is really an inspiring man. Through his movie, and watching 艺点心思 about his life, allows me to understand further abt his movies and productions.

Money No Enough 2 is really quite a good show to watch. And its even better when my dear told me more about his stories.

I have never watch Money No Enough before. And till now, i never did. Initially during the show, i was thinking like..."Yup, it's quite good ONLY." And we had fun laughing at our friend, Neil, who was part of the crew in the production, acting as a tight-fit wearing gangster. ahahaaAHa~~*

However, the part whereby the Ah ma (auntie who acted as Jack Neo, Mark Lee and Henry Thia's mum) is showcasted, the protrayal of family ties,problems faced by families, money issues...especially the part whereby Henry thia sent his mum to old folks home...That was so sO sooOoooOo sad!!!

Ant mentioned that Jack Neo's filming skills have really matured, and after the premeire, we went to shake his hand, and also took a photo of him! We saw a sincere person, no airs, who lead his life brilliantly and fought hard for his dreams and visions despite all odds.

Why the mentioning of Jack Neo and this show?

It is because, he reminds me of...The Pursuit of Happyness.

Jack Neo was a sec 4 graduate, because he managed to miss the mark to get into Junior College. With no proper education during his time (he is now 48years old), he went straight to army and was in the drama and music company.

Since then, he was into Entertainment world,drama and the art, till this day. All was not easy as it seems, and no one ever expected a Singaporean could produce box-office smashing movies. Now, he's now titled as a National Treasure, next to our MM Lee Kuan Yew.

More than 20over years he fought on in this industry.. If i were to step into the small military band and music industry, would i be able to achieve what he did?...

This is why, he's become a Singaporean inspiration to me, other than MM Lee in Singapore.

The show's really nice! a Must watch for the typical Singaporean! ;)
