Andy Lau saves Karen Mok at the Bird's Nest

Andy Lau had the chance to perform with Jackie Chan, Karen Mok, Emil Chow in the Olympics Closing ceremony singing "遠方的客人請你留下來" (Oversea's guests please stay) and celebrated with World's athletes below the stage.

During the afternoon before the show, the group of artistes were arranged to have a security check. At the same time David Beckham was also having his security check and the artistes were very happy to see him. When the artistes entered the bird's nest to rehearse, director Zhang Yimou approached them and Thanked their support. Zhang Yimou immediatley hugged Andy Lau when he saw him. Andy congratulated him for his success in the Opening ceremony.

When Andy knew that he would be singing in the part where the world athletes will be partying below the stage he instantly thought he may have been able to see Yau Ming since he is so tall but he couldn't. The closing ceremony was just like a Big party and all the artistes were going wild on stage. Karen Mok wasn't careful and fell off the stage but fortunately Andy Lau immediatley grabbed her hand and pulled her back up. When Karen went back stage she was still in shock. Karen said to Andy "I was really scared, Andy thankyou for saving me". Karen pulled down her long socks and realised her leg was bleeding. Andy helped Karen disinfect the wound and asked the workers to help her apply it with ice.


The actors all wanted autographs

When the Closing ceremony was coming to an close, the China actors who performed in the show went on stage and approached Andy. They all grabbed him no matter male or female and kissed him, some of them hugged him and didn't want to let go. Andy was extremely surprised and each one of them had an camera and a pen ready. They wanted his autograph and to take pictures with him. One of the actors who was wearing a Chinese cultural costume took a picture with Andy, but his head gear suddenly hit Andy's brow bone and it looked a little bruised.
