This year Raymond Lam depends on TVB series Men With No Shadows to be in the TV King competition, but it's been pretty calm for him. He expressed in advanced that he will be absent from the awards presentation tonight: "I have to record new songs for my new album, so I don't think I can go to the awards ceremony. I believe TVB won't be upset because the work I'm doing is for TVB." Raymond said frankly awards are not of high importance to him, so this year even if he's in the neglected group, he won't feel unhappy. He said: "We all put in our greatest effort. Awards is everyone's goal, but it's still about the timing. The most important is that this year there are so many good series and many audience supporting by watching TV. I won't put more pressure on myself, I just feel that I have a breakthrough in my work. I hope next year, audience will like my series."
Yesterday Raymond took part in an autograph session as the ambassador for a jewelry company. He was given a 6 carat diamond, valued at HK$200,000. On December 8th it will be Raymond's birthday, the organizers gave him a birthday cake to celebrate. After this event, Raymond attended another event uChannel's Music Awards, where he was presented with the Most Popular Global Singer Award (HK). Raymond said: "I hope my hard work will be recognized with this award, but I'm already happy to be nominated. In the future, I hope to sing more Mandarin songs."
