简介

Alice Wong Yee Kam is a Hong Kong actress born on 18 December 1964 who grew up in the Kwai Chung district. Her parents originally intended to name her "Qi Wei," but her grandmother objected, so the name was changed to "Qi Chin." She studied at the China Evangelization Mission Primary School and after graduating from an English secondary school, she worked as a souvenir salesgirl at Lai Yuen amusement park before gradually transitioning into Chinese dance performance after colleagues invited her. During that period she also performed Chinese dance at restaurants and wharves at night to earn a living, and worked at the jade market while teaching dance at Lai Yuen. In the early 1980s she enrolled in TVB's dancer training program for one year under prominent mentors. In 1983 she won a dance competition which earned her a place at Shaw Brothers' actor training program, graduating in 1984 alongside classmates such as Guo Jin'an. In 1985 she appeared in a music video for singer Lam Chi Cheung, then entered TVB's Miss TV pageant in 1986 and won the title after portraying the character "Loh Lam" from the drama "Family Changes." Immediately after winning she was cast in a leading role in the drama Da Yun He. In 1991 she migrated to Malaysia for higher pay and greater opportunities for actors, becoming active there with approximately 50 episodes filmed annually. Between 1995 and 1996 she established her own production company and produced various television programs. She suffered a tragic car accident in 1992 while filming the drama Ban Sheng Qing Wei Liao that resulted in the death of a female assistant director, and has followed a vegetarian diet since then. She lost a significant portion of her wealth during the 1998 financial crisis when the Malaysian currency collapsed. She returned to Hong Kong in 2003 and initially worked as a yoga instructor, then participated in television drama filming in mainland China in 2008. Between 2009 and 2014 she participated in programs for Hong Kong radio, television, and ATV. In 2014 she returned to TVB at the invitation of producer Wong Wai Sing and continues her acting career to this day.
