Random news on HongKong Open.

Now everyone seems to get use to Bad lines call, Patriotic walkover and Gamenship tactics… is too calm to be good? Should badminton go the WWE route or follow the Tennis Route? I guess WWE route would be better cause is more entertaining somemore or TOP player can become hollywood star like the ROCK or Hulk Hogan.
 
i am full today.

bump into Sally Yeh and she offered her leftover box from dinner. very yummy dumplings. she is so kind. now i don't have to work empty stomach.

she is here with a couple of GGBC members that i also have seen in US before.
 
Went for dinner in Times Square food court with gunawan+wife and the INA gals: Vita Marissa, Lilyana Natsir, Jo Novita, Greysia Polii, Rani Mundiasti, and Endang Nursugianti. We bumped into Simon Santoso with another INA official already having there.

Later on, Simon went shopping with Greysia. Apparently, he won a door prize from the Welcome Dinner yesterday? The prize is shopping vouchers worth quite a sum of money from Land Crawford. Not bad for him....to compensate his loss to Hafiz Hashim :p

Hau-Ge went shopping with Nova Widianto+wife, Flandy Limpele, Ko Herry IP, Ko Aryono, Kak Yanti.
 
Sightings in Cosmopolitan Hotel:
Li Yongbo and other Chinese officials. He waved to Hau-Ge :eek:
Tony Gunawan/Candra Wijaya
Sudket Prapakamol/Saralee Thoungthongkam, coach, and their Thailand gang
Choong Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah before their match
Mak Hee Chun/Lim Khim Wah (they look so young....but more matured than the last time I saw last year during the Singapore Satellite)
Two Japanese players (probably Aki Akao and another)
Rexy Mainaky and other MAS coaches
Lu Lan
Some European players (dunno which country)
Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan with Alvent Yulianto
Hendra A. Gunawan/Joko Riyadi (sad after their loss to Guo/Xie)
Taufik Hidayat (he looked so relaxed)
Yang Wei/Zhang Jiewen (back to hotel after their match)

Now we really miss those bad calls, so boring only the same few "cats and mice" in the BF since day 1 :crying:

Obviously you're in his blacklist, you don't want to know what happen to those who he waved at last time, don't say I didn't warn you :D:D:D
 
So...

I am shocked that LYB waved me....hehe...hope I am not in his blacklist....hehe
..Hau-ge, you must've had one terrific & indelible impression, after meeting LYB, that he still remembers you..;):cool:

Firstly, he was after another dinner from you -- so if you did not respond, you might now be in his blacklist.

And if you did not dine with him before, it must be your "TRIAD" background that he was aware off and hence the wave.:D:D;)

How does the wave look like? 5 fingers or 1 finger? If its 5 then you are safe , if its 1 then you better keep away from him :D.

I don't know the history about the blacklist and the connection. Maybe something to share or I missed joke :confused:. I would think LYB was simply trying to be nice to people he had met before, especially after the CO's controversy :rolleyes:.
