Last week I went to Manila for our press tour :) We participated in an Expo there, and it opened up many opportunities for us.

This is our booth and our promotion team.
We were invited to 99.5 Campus Radio's Brewrats Show. The show was really interesting even though it was mostly in Tagalog. Before our 1.5 hours featured session, they had a 30 minutes phone calling session that does nothing but cutting the caller's call. Surprisingly, the calls just came in non stop, I guess people just love being cut off the lines :)

Filipino Team + DJ Tado and DJ Ramon

Me + DJ Tado: We are spreading love to the world.
After that we went to Oysterboy for dinner. They have got a really really good dish called Napolean Oysters. Its baked Oysters with cheese, cream, bacon and celery. OOOOOOOO!

Our fellow Zorpian ladies: Miz Jaymie, Dee and Alyn
Then I did another newspaper interview the other morning. She looks SOOO young, but she actually already have a son!!!
We also hired a model to promote our booth. She is actually an FHM model before!
Then at the same night we went to Karaoke. Lexy actually traveled for 4 hours that night just to come to our dinner and karaoke. Most of our team members meet this mysterious coworker first time that night. WOOT!

The Divas! From left: Dee, Jaymie, Alyn, Lexy and Hope.
The drummer from Kwon then dropped by at the Karaoke to say Hi. He's actually from HK, so he spoke cantonese with me! It was a surreal experience talking to Cantonese speaking person in Manila. (Kwon is on Zorpia and they recently won lots of awards. Their status in Philipines is like Coldplay in the UK.)

And of course we had to take some gooft pics :)
We went home at 5am and I had to wake up at 9am to do another TV interview. Those who know me personally would know the chance for me to wake up that early is as slim as the next meteriote hitting Earth.
And right before I hopped on the plane back to Hong Kong. Our other model arrived at our booth! What a great way to conclude my trip :)

Recently, one of our artists, Colette was in Hong Kong performing! I went with some reporter friends and chatted with Colette before her performance. She's very nice and friendly! Her music was great and she even sang in the party. Here are some of our photos.
Monday,Feb 4 2008, 02:34:05 PMMy Beijing Trip~ :)
Recently I have visited Beijing for two consecutive weekends. It all started with an award I got from the Chinese Marketing Department. I had to attend that award ceremony, and that's why I was in Beijing in the first place. To make my time there more productive, our marketing power girl Liz has managed to arranged a line of interviews for me in major Chinese financial magazines, Phoenix TV. In between those two weekends, I came back to Hong Kong for a really famous radio show! These two weeks had turned into a full-fledged press tour! Woo hoo Viva La Productivity!

The trip started with the award ceremony in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing (人民大会堂). It was snowing that day.

This is the brand new Chinese Oprah House right next to the Hall. It was gorgeous!!!


Here's me getting the award. Look how totally lame I was muahahaha~ After getting the award, I went through the most traumatic 6 hours of my life, speeches from those good ol' Chinese officials. Uh... Half of the people in the room were snoring. Evan sat like 10 rows behind me so it was extremely boring! ARG!

That night we went out and tried some random Beijing local snacks. Some were OK, some were disgusting like lamb intestines and stuff.
Then the next day I did a whole day interview with photo shoot in this super cool glass-walled restaurant. At night it turns into a Salsa club! That photoshoot should look pretty cool, I'll post more photos once I got the photos :)

This is how their menu looks like...

They serve fusion kinda food. When restaurants say they're fusion, I'll just take it as them not knowing what cuisine they wanna stick with ;)

This is our Beijing Team :)
Top row: Ben, Ben's wife, Laoxie's wife, Laoxie
Bottom row: Evan, Me, Xuhao, Liz

Laoxie was totally beaming with his wife that night. They smiled so much it was scary. I have never seen Laoxie so happy before muahahahaha!
Then I came back to Hong Kong for a few days for a radio show at FM881, with DJ Susie Wong 蘇絲黃.

Me doing the live radio show with 蘇絲黃

Of course we got a pic of me with 蘇絲黃 hehe~

One more pic with 蘇絲黃's assistants, Wingie and Tarzan at the front door of CRHK FM881!
The day after the radio show, I flew right back to Beijing again for Phoenix TV! I was very lucky I was invited to be interviewed in the most popular talk show in China, "A Date With Luyu" (鲁豫有约).


This is Luyu. She's gorgeous in person ;)


Me chatting with her in the backstage. She's actually lived in Seattle before too! She speaks english perfectly BTW. Woot!

And of course a pic of me and LUYU!!!!! YAY!

At the backstage I also bumped into a famous anchorwoman from Shenzhen. Hottie Alert!
After the show, we hung out with the on-stage director Mao Mao and his girlfriend who is also a famous director in CCTV. I heard he has directed a few reality shows, kinda like MTV Real World Road Rules Challenges. I'd love to be in one of them~ Muahahahaha!

The bamboo stick is actually a container for a special bamboo-flavored alcoholic drink. It's super cute :)

Last but not least, a tea meeting with our business partner from the Chinese Youtube, 56.com.
That episode of "A date with Luyu" had a theme of Chinese New Year. I prepared them some clips from Zorpians around the world saying new year greetings. Here are some of the clips from our infamous Mike and Dee ;)
Happy New Year!

Posted at 6/22/2008 7:26 PMHow are the Terms of Service to be applied?

Why is it that I see the Terms of Service applied to some members but not to others?
Are not the Terms of Service to be applied to all members? For me, it seems a little pointless to even have Terms of Service if it is not intended to be applied to all members of the site. Therefore, I am asking: Can someone please break down for me the classification of members here in Zorpia? I'm sure it goes way beyond Royals and non-Royals. Why is it that I see the Terms of Service applied to some members but not to others?
I find the impartial application of Terms of Service to be highly unprofessional and unethical.
Recently, I created a page for music (same as I see many other members create here in Zorpia) however, after only a brief 5 days - the page I created was deleted for violation of Terms of Service. How can Zorpia management be so blind as to the numerous other music
pages created by members for the same purpose as myself - yet, those pages continue to be hosted. Frankly, I don't think anyone is blind here. I think this is a simple case of double standards. Obviously, some members are not held accountable to the Terms of Service as are other members.
Please can someone tell me to whom exactly the Terms of Service are to be applied. As for those not held accountable by the Terms of Service, is there just free reign given to this particular category of members - and if so, how do you get on that list? Is there any possible way for Zorpia to eliminate the hypocrisy of Administration here and evenly apply the Terms of Service to all members - or will my page just be deleted now?
