On May 12, 1984, at the press conference of "The Rusty Bridge King", someone asked Lee Heung Kam (she played Yung Mei Ling's mother is this serie), why she loves Yung Mei Ling so much, why doesn’t she simply recognize her as a goddaughter, Lee Heung Kam laughed and said, "I don't know if people will accept me as a godmother. ." When Yung Mei Ling heard this she immediately knelt down and poured tea for her and called out "Gan Niang", recognizing Lee Heung Kam as her nominal mother. Yung Mei Ling said: "On my birthday this year, Lee Heung Kam also had a payout, and now I have received another payout." Lee Heung Kam replied, "When you get married, a godmother will also give the goddaughter a pair of dragon and phoenix bracelets.

The filming of "The Rusty Bridge King" has been completed. After the press conference, everyone joined hands in Xisha Bay to swim, barbecue, play sparrows, and do not miss any activities. In short, they played for an afternoon and evening.

Originally, Li Xiangqin promised Yung Mei Ling to wear shorts, but temporarily she saw that she only had a T-shirt and a pair of trousers. Yung Mei Ling, who was wearing a whole set of vest and shorts, shouted that it was not worth it.

 

1984年5月12日,《生锈桥王》记者招待会上,有人问李香琴既然这么疼爱翁美玲,为何不索性认她做干女儿,李香琴笑说:“未知人家肯不肯认我这个干娘。”翁美玲听罢马上跪地倒茶叫声“干娘”,认琴姐为契妈。阿翁说:“我今年生日时,琴姐也有派利是,现在上契又收一封利是。”李香琴接口道:“他日你结婚,干娘还会送干女一对龙凤镯。
《生锈桥王》已拍完,记者招待会后,大伙联袂操入西沙湾,游泳、烧烤、打麻雀,什么活动都不放过,总之玩足一个下午及晚上。本来李香琴答应翁美玲穿短裤的,但临时却见她只是T恤一件,西裤一条,穿了整套背心、短裤的翁美玲大叫不值

    Finally, I visited her resting place in Cambridge back in late October 2025. Cleaned the area and pulled some weeds. It’s been 40 years, and nobody can replace her. Always wonder what she would become if she were still alive.

    It made no difference whether Jackie Chan spoke about Barbara or not. In fact, Jackie Chan appeared in several photos with Barbara, Kent, and her mother, and his wife, Joan Lin, was also photographed with Barbara on a few occasions. Barbara had already risen to fame on her own merit and exceptional acting talent. She was one of the fastest actresses to gain widespread recognition, and she did not need any endorsement from him. By the 1980s, she was regarded as an elite actress. Truly, she was a phenomenal performer—and she continues to be recognized and admired to this day.

    Thanks for the research and clearing things up Rob , I guess that Jackie only knew Barbara through promotional and charity events … They also never starred together in films / series …

    This is what ChatGTP says: There’s no known documented instance where Jackie Chan (成龍) has publicly mentioned Barbara Yung (翁美玲) in interviews, autobiographies, or other recorded statements. Searches through available English and Chinese sources do not find any credible quote, interview excerpt, or reliable record in which Jackie Chan talks about Barbara Yung by name. Summary There’s no credible documented evidence that Jackie Chan ever publicly spoke about Barbara Yung — either praising her, remembering her, or otherwise referencing her — in interviews or other primary sources available to date.
