Pakho Chau and Stephanie Cheng have very different views on love. Pakho, who sings sad love songs like 六 天 gives off the impression of being shy when it comes to love. In reality, he is the brave type. Meanwhile, Stephanie, the "大 女 仔" (lit. big girl, also Stephanie's song title) who loves deeply, the one who was once "frozen" by her company because of love, is the reserved type in love. Their duet, 一 事 無 成 (Accomplish Nothing) allowed the two to sit together and discuss their views on love and success.
Pakho: It was actually my idea to get Stephanie to duet on 一 事 無 成. I immediately liked the song when I received the demo. The song originally only had a female voice in a featuring role. But I felt that the song had a dance feel, so I thought why not ask Stephanie to duet.
Stephanie: When I received the song, I really liked the lyrics that Wyman Wong wrote. It talks about how society views success. Success is not only measured by money, grades in school, or social status. If one is able to find a beautiful love relationship, it is another type of success as well.
Pakho: Right! I really learned something from Wyman's lyrics, because I have never heard before that love is a type of success. Now, I understand that success depends on the person, because each person's abilities are different, so the path that each person takes is different .
Stephanie: I find that the song is very meaningful. Ordinary people are not failures. It's already an accomplishment to work hard at solving problems.
Pakho: Actually when one works hard to accomplish something, it is already an achievement. Like how the song talks about finding true love, in today's society, that is already a mark of success.
Stephanie: But to be able to find true love is difficult, because it's an art to be able to interact and communicate with another person. There has to be acceptance, tolerance, and understanding of the other person. If love was that easy, there would not be so many breakups and divorces. Which is why when I see those couples that work, I envy them.
Pakho: My view on love is that there must be respect and honesty between the couple. Everything must be said clearly, because communication is very important, so there must be more talking.
Stephanie: I believe that one can't be too selfish in love, or it will hurt the other person. Also, communication needs time to perfect, so everyone must be patient.
Pakho: Actually I find that you are pretty good yourself, I seriously considered you before. Haha! Because you like to laugh, fun, and retarded! I'm not saying that you are retarded, but am referring that you believe in simplicity. I feel that for two people, the most important thing is happiness, that the two can always laugh together!
Stephanie: Quite frightened that you considered me! The Pakho I know is easy to approach and very hardworking. It is very comfortable to interact with you, I feel that you are the active type, but I am the fantasy type.
