Wayne Lai's contract with TVB expires in May 2018: I hope to develop my career in China

Wayne Lai (黎耀祥) accepts an interview at a radio station on 12 February. His basic contract with TVB will expire in May and he denies it is related to low salary and discusses about the salary and benefits during Ricky Wong's (王維基) era. Wayne is able to discuss with them properly this time: "One tends not to retain when one is an adult and what matters most is to build up a good rapport. Hopefully we can change to other working pattern and hopefully it will be more flexible. What we are going to do if we film one series per year and there is no suitable scripts for us? We must film it once we agree."

Wayne discloses his new plan: "I am hoping to develop my career such as hosting shows in the New Year. Previously, my son is young and I will be worried if he films drama in China. Anyway, he is studying in US by himself now. (What about your wife?) She is going with me and do you think I can run away? I will not be worried if she is besides me."
