00:00 My wife is in charge of all the money.
00:02 So I don't like to film with her.
00:04 Because we have to pay for the food.
00:06 So when I filmed the first episode,
00:24 I didn't plan to film the second episode.
00:26 Ten years later, I said,
00:28 "The money at that time,
00:30 in this world,
00:32 is different."
00:34 Because money is always different.
00:36 Why did I film the third episode 15 years later?
00:38 I should have filmed it 10 years ago.
00:40 But I didn't feel the change of money.
00:42 But after COVID,
00:44 I found that money has changed.
00:46 We have cashless, NFT,
00:48 cryptocurrency,
00:50 not just stocks.
00:52 Many young people
00:54 are doing business online.
00:56 So there are many things to record.

01:14 Because I'm old, it's a waste to eat too much.
01:16 It's me who's the poorest.
01:17 Because the director's children have grown up already,
01:20 got married, and have their own families.
01:21 So they probably don't have to worry too much
01:23 about spending money on their children.
01:24 My eldest daughter hasn't reached the "O" level yet,
01:27 and the second son has just completed his PSLE,
01:29 but the youngest hasn't even reached it yet.
01:30 So, I still have a long way to go.
01:34 Three meals a day, I eat at home.
01:36 I'm very savvy, I don't waste money.
01:40 I don't film, I always stay home
01:42 and play with my pets.
01:44 Basically, I think the three of us
01:50 are very evenly distributed.
01:53 According to everyone's ability,
01:55 you can see how much money we can make.
01:57 How much money can we make from filming?
02:00 Many people misunderstand this, it's funny.
02:02 They think that
02:03 I get all the tickets.
02:06 Like, you see, he said,
02:07 "Okay, this movie invests 2.8 million.
02:10 If the box office is 5 million,
02:12 people will think,
02:13 "Wow, Jack earned 2.2 million."
02:16 But it's not like that.
02:17 Okay, for family-wise,
02:24 it's about 15 to 16K.
02:27 Because I have three kids.
02:29 I don't have a job with my wife.
02:31 But I give her the whole phone.
02:32 She checks, she uses it.
02:34 But my only condition is
02:35 that if I want money, you must give it to me.
02:37 I buy the same thing every month.
02:39 I mean to be very frank.
02:40 From $10, $20, to $10,000, $20,000.
02:44 I might buy a $10 face wash.
02:47 I'm also happy.
02:48 Maybe someone told me,
02:49 "Hey, your Lawlake is here, do you want it?"
02:51 Yeah, I'll buy it.
02:52 The most important thing is that we're still alive.
02:54 We enjoy life.
02:56 We must enjoy life.
02:57 I give her the whole phone.
03:00 She can buy whatever she wants.
03:01 What about you?
03:02 You say everything I say.
03:04 What about you buy things on the internet?
03:05 The internet is more than 1,000 dollars.
03:06 My money is all managed by my wife.
03:09 Yeah, so I don't like to film with her.
03:11 Because we have to pay for the meals.
03:13 I just asked.
03:14 If I borrow money,
03:15 do they borrow it from my wife or me?
03:16 I can buy things myself.
03:18 Although she's in charge of the money,
03:20 I can buy things myself.
03:22 Yeah, you have to buy something useful.
03:23 But you still have to figure it out.
03:27 She'll definitely ask you, "Do you need to buy it?"
03:28 "Of course I have to buy it."
03:31 And when she's going to buy it, she'll ask,
03:32 "Do you really need it?"
03:35 No, honestly,
03:37 it's good to have someone to look after you.
03:39 Otherwise, everything is useless.
03:43 We'll want to buy everything we see.
03:45 But sometimes,
03:46 when I buy something,
03:47 it's really useless.
03:48 You ask Hui,
03:49 he'll put it all in the storeroom.
03:51 Sometimes, I buy it and come back,
03:52 I think it's fun.
03:53 But after that, it's really useless.
03:55 So someone said,
03:56 "He'll bring it back."
03:57 "Look, you said you had to buy it."
03:59 You haven't opened the plastic.
04:01 So sometimes, when we buy things,
04:03 do you buy what you want to use
04:05 or what you need?
04:08 There are two types.
04:09 You buy what you want to use.
04:10 You buy what you need.
04:11 Do you really need it?
04:12 Not necessarily.
04:13 Then why would you buy it?
04:14 You have to buy something good.
04:15 Generally, people buy good things.
04:17 H1N1 fans,
04:19 this film has been waiting for...
04:21 If it's from the first episode to now,
04:22 it's been 25 years.
04:24 You must watch it.
04:25 Why?
04:26 Because,
04:27 think about it.
04:27 Who were you watching the first episode with?
04:30 Who were you watching the second episode with?
04:32 If you can bring the same person
04:33 to watch this film,
04:35 it'll feel different.
04:36 Especially if you bring your child.
04:38 Right?
04:38 If there's a chance,
04:40 I'd like to ask you to watch
04:41 "The Unbreakable"
04:42 with 1, 2,
04:43 and then watch our 3.
04:45 Bye.
04:46 Bye.
