Eason Won't Oppose Daughter Entering the Entertainment Industry

Two nights ago, at the 2008 McDonald's World Children's Day Concert Eason Chan praised a young girl for her performance of 站在高崗上, calling it professional and saying it is important to start learning at a young age.

As for his own daughter, Eason says he won't oppose her entering the entertainment industry as long as it is her choice and says, "I would share my experiences and knowledge with her, I would also follow in Eric Tsang's footsteps and would never tell her 'this or that is not good enough'. If she were to enter the industry, I would need to ask Eric to share his experience with me." When asked if he would require his daughter to graduate from college/university before she can enter the industry, Eason responds, "I don't know, it's hard to say because [right now] we don't know if she'll do well in school. I'm leaving my expectations open because I did not graduate from college/university and I was fortunate to meet a lot of great people."

Eason further says that since his daughter is frequently followed and taken pictures of by the media she has gotten use to it and says, "When she knows it is someone from the media she will wave her hand, [and jokes] she is very much like me, she will enter the industry just to have her pictures taken!"
