[Show] News: Show Luo: Mom’s street smarts, my life’s principles

Show has fought in Taiwan’s entertainment industry for 15 years already, becoming a singing, hosting and acting star. During the times he was in a low point of his life, Show never complained, he quietly got up from the bottom and get back on the stage. Until this year’s March, he published a book in Mainland China, “Logic”, had only everyone know behind Show there’s a mother who teaches him to be sincere, practical, humble and strong.

“Logic” promoted Show into a successful author. In his recent press conference, Show expressed that he is trying to lower his star image; he wants to use the identity of a writer to emerge again.


Reporter: Mr Luo, having a mother who is full of wisdom is really lucky. From the book’s binding up to the book’s cover we can see that it is done diligently. Why did you publish a book about wisdom, what is the purpose?

Show: When I was growing up, there were many different life experiences, the more I discovered my mom’s principles, it seems very simple but it’s very useful. The reason of the publication of this book is really simple, it’s because she didn’t study much but she is a mother abundant in having many life experiences. She said many things to her beloved son, simple but powerful, I want to share it with everyone. I believe inside, is somewhat similar to the words your mom has said. Every mother is great, because the love she has for you is the most natural, the most selfless love, it’s just that you carelessly forgot. I want to say those words again, the words my mom said, maybe even your mom had said is like the nature’s many animals. Actually it’s all learned from mom, so that we can continue to survive. So the other reason of this book is also to remember the words your mom has said to you before.

Reporter: Why did you choose to use short concise writing style for this book?

Show: That’s because my mom’s street wisdom are very simple, but powerful. My mom’s friends who heard her know, Luo Ma Ma is never troublesome, especially when I make a mistake, when she will punch me, haha!

Reporter: This book, how long did you plan until you started writing? Was Luo Ma Ma also involved in writing? In the process of writing the book, when choosing which wisdom, did Luo Ma share her opinions?

Show: One year. Mom was also involved. Luo: one year. Mom also involved. So she said all the royalties should be given to her. Ha!

Reporter: The Show Luo that was writing this book is which identity? What kind of position?

Show: In this world, there was always only one Show Luo. Since when I started singing until hosting, acting and others, they are the same Show Luo. If the Show Luo who wrote this book is different from the previous ones, it might be harder. Because those were the experiences since I was little until I grew up, I spent a lot of time reminiscing them, after finishing this book, I’ve also learned a lot.

Reporter: In your mind, what do you think are the ideal audience of “Logic”? Why?

Show: I don’t have any ideal audience. Just like when I act, I don’t choose which group I will perform for, I just work hard to do it sincerely and the best I can do.

Reporter Are you willing to define this book as an inspirational life book?

Show: It may be a different definition for each person. I accepted this. The point is you like it. Also that it helped inspired you, just like me who got a lot of inspiration from it. “Logic” ‘s wisdom, it isn’t usually published in books, it’s also hardly learnt in any class, if you want to learn, you have to learn in the depth of the streets.

Reporter: In your book, it says “Only you can describe yourself”, In your mind, what kind of person is “Show Luo”? How does he respond to obstacles?

Show: He is someone who does not accept defeat. He’s sad when he meets obstacles but he will not give up, he will continue to challenge these obstacles.

Dream’s road is full of sceneries

Reporter: Do you think the opportunities in life or wisdom is more important?

Show: Wisdom. Because opportunities can not be predicted. Wisdom can be cultivated. You can also use wisdom to change bad opportunities, go through it and even think of it as the next stage of your board.

Reporter: Along the way, you were successful in singing, hosting, acting and other careers, all you mom has taught you, which wisdom did you benefit from the most?

Show: It’s “The next chapter immediately starts!” (the last chapter of the book) My mom said before, "Are you still alive? If you’re not yet dead then stand up, continue to fight until the next round!” Actually people who are successful still have the chance to lose; People who lost also still have the chance to win next time. Whether your present situation is good or bad, it’s just the same, they immediately are over! People have to look forward; you have to keep walking forward in life. My mom’s street wisdoms me more careful, a man in mind of doing things.

Reporter: In love and career, what do you think is the best wisdom that your mom taught you?

Show: Sincerity, be sincere in doing things and sincerely love people.

Reporter: Now there are many young people who come out from the bottom, many of them have to face work, family and life’s pressures, once their mind is not in a good state, they will be flattened by pressure, having a very tiring life, can you use Luo Ma Ma’s street wisdom to talk to these young people?

Show: Everyone has a dream. People become great because of their dreams. Young people have to take some time to think what your dream is, once you’re on the road to your dream, those course of events will become your scenery. Don’t make them into pain, you have to use the same mentality in playing and seriously work. Life itself won’t make people exhausted; making people exhausted is just because of your mentality, a pessimistic person, whatever he does, whatever he looks at will all be tiring. So I encourage everyone to have a dream, like a distant lighthouse, you know there’s light there, no matter how far you are, when you look at it, you vision is high, mind is wide, people will be happier.
