[edit] Career
At the end of 1990, the 19-year-old Chi-Lam visited Hong Kong during his summer vacation and was reacquainted with his cousin, Anna Ueyama (上山安娜), who had grown up with Chi-Lam under the same roof during their childhood. Anna introduced Chi-Lam to his first manager, Tony. He then recorded his first album - a duet album with Hong Kong singer Maple Hui Chau-Yi (許秋怡). The debut album, Modern Love Story, was released by the record company Fitto in 1991 and was an immense success. This album was on IFPI Album Sales Chart for 11 weeks, and as of 2006 still holds the IFPI record for newcomer singers. In 1992, Chi-Lam starred in his first TVB series "Peak of Passion". In 1993, he acted in his very first movie, "A Warrior's Tragedy". In 1995, he starred in the TVB hit drama Cold Blood Warm Heart (天地男兒), and his brilliant performance made him a household name and boosted his career in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
After CBWH, he transitioned into movies such as Perfect Match and Comic King. He returned to TVB in 2000 in the series Return of the Cuckoo (十月初五的月光). His most current TVB dramas include Take My Word For It, Point of No Return and Shades of Truth. Chi-Lam has also found success in the Mainland entertainment industry with starring roles in the television series Ni Shui Han, Lu Xiao Feng, and Mei Li Xin Tian Di.
In 1993, Chi-Lam met his former girlfriend, now wife Anita Yuen Wing-Yee. It has been confirmed recently that they were secretly married. Anita is a famous actress and a former Miss Hong Kong. Chilam first worked with Anita in one of his MTV shooting Miss You Much.
And on May 10 2006, Anita announced that she was three months pregnant with Chi-Lam's child. At the end of November, Anita gave birth to a baby boy.
