Cheng was arranging a family dinner for tomorrow. She called up the restaurant in Ipoh to book a table. When asked for her name, she said, ‘Wong Cheng Mun’ which is her name in Cantonese. The lady at the other end must have laughed because Cheng said, ‘don’t laugh’ in Cantonese.
Cheng’s name in Hokien is very different and sounds boyish too. In case, someone suggests that we followed Faye Wong’s name, she wasn’t famous in 1983 then.
