"Do you think Hong Kong people have a comedy culture?" Hong Kong, like anywhere in the world, definitely enjoys a laugh. However, Hong Kong is such a compact and busy place, people have very high expectations. Since time is so limited here, people want to make sure they get the best so if they come to your show, they want to make sure it wasn’t a bad choice or a waste of their precious time. This has a downside that people often keep thinking “Was this show worth my time and money” then forget to relax and just enjoy the show. But the good thing is, if you can make people in Hong Kong laugh, it is very likely you will be able to make anyone else in the world laugh.

筆者好奇問:「你覺得香港人點睇棟篤笑文化? 」像世界上任何地方一樣,香港絕對喜歡笑。但是,香港是一個如此緊湊而繁忙的地方,人們對此抱有很高的期望。由於時間限制在這裡,人們希望確保他們得到最好的,所以如果他們來到你的節目,他們想確保它不是一個糟糕的選擇或浪費他們寶貴的時間。這有一個缺點,人們經常一直在想“這個節目值得我的時間和金錢”然後,忘記放鬆及欣賞節目。但好處是,如果你可以讓香港人發笑,你很可能會讓世上其他人都笑。
