Hacken Lee accepts interview with i-Cable in Cantonese

As “TVB’s god-son”, Hacken Lee’s position in the past few months during TVB’s dispute with HKRIA over royalties has been awkward at best. To avoid going against TVB, Hacken insisted on honoring his contractual obligations and therefore refused to be interviewed by i-Cable. However, with his TVB contract expiring last week (3/31) plus the birth of his 2nd son, Hacken decided to “break the ban” yesterday and accepted an interview with i-Cable.

Though the dispute between TVB and HKRIA over royalties is still ongoing, Hacken no longer has to bear the weight of ‘TVB contracted singer’, so he happily shared the joy of his son Rex’s birth with i-Cable. At the same time, he also accepted a telephone interview with TVB’s "Scoop" to share the good news.

During his interview with i-Cable, Hacken was asked whether he is concerned that doing this interview in Cantonese will affect his relationship with TVB. Hacken replied: “I have not thought about it; actually, the earth is turning every day and depending on which point it stops at, different things happen. Before, I was contracted with TVB so I had to honor my contractual obligation, however my contract ended on 3/31. I have not thought heavily about it – just let everything take its natural course…I’ll take it as getting to know more people.” (Will you be appearing more on i-Cable shows in the future?) “One step at a time.” (There were rumors previously that i-Cable offered you HKD$10 million to take on hosting responsibilities for the World Cup?) He laughed and replied: “Haha...if I sign on for 3 seasons straight, I can really afford to have more children…whether I’ll be the host or not, leave it up to fate.”

Asked whether he will try again to have a baby girl? Hacken said that it most likely won’t happen, as he feels that 2 children are enough so there are no plans currently for another one.
