Sharon: I just wanted to know how did you got the role of Hua Ze Lei in Meteor Garden?

Vic speaks in Chinese and the does the action with his hands in his lap and looking at the sky his ‘sad face’

Shirley: he’s shy, right? one time at the audition, he just at the side sitting doing this (did what vic did) then the Director or crew saw him and said "who’s that guy" and then invited him and he was the one who got the role not his friend.

Then Vic butts in

Shirely: He says not at all the times they should be together, they have their own careers and if a person is really good in singing he will bring out the best in him, so its that’s OK with that, but if there is a chance coming film that they are ok, they could come together and that is more powerful.
