Gordon Liu (Lau Ka Fai) suffered a stroke and hemiplegia in 2011. Over 3 years he could not forget about work. TVB yesterday arranged for him to visit the Tseung Kwan O Television City and catch up with Michelle Yim (Mai Suet), Hui Siu Hung, Chun Wong, Lo Yuen Yan and others. Production resource department director Elaine Lok Yi Ling personally welcomed him. Lau Ka Fai was excited to interact with his friends. After dinner he even flashed a victory sign to reporters and happily said, "Yeah!"

Lau Ka Fai earlier was sent to the hospital twice earlier as his health became a concern for many. Yesterday around 4PM, Lau Ka Fai arrived in the Tseung Kwan O Television City. Amy Fan Yik Man first made arrangements. Lau Ka Fai waited in the vehicle and was in great spirits. Vinz Sze Cho Nam helped him to his wheel chair. Fan Yik Man wanted him to put on a red scarf but he refused. After she said that the studio air conditioning was cold, he finally agreed to cover his legs with a checkered blanket. Lok Yi Ling, Hui Siu Hung, Michelle and others continued to approach and greet him. Lau Ka Fai was very happy and full of smile as he shook hands with each colleague.

Fan Yik Man said that Lau Ka Fai was nervous about returning to the company. He personally matched his clothes and worked on it for hours. Hui Siu Hung joked that they were both young and did not need to pick out clothes. Everyone waited for him for 3 hours. The group accompanied Lau Ka Fai on a tour of Television City. Sze Cho Nam pushed the wheel chair to Costume Street for photos. Fan Yik Man reminded Lau Ka Fai to smile. He mischievously replied, "It's very hard to smile!" Chun Wong whispered a few words in his ear and made him crack up for the photo. They also visited sets in the studio and around 6PM went to the cafeteria for dinner. Directors and producers came to greet Lau Ka Fai and even asked him to let everyone visit when he felt better. Lau Ka Fai around 7PM left. He flashed the victory sign twice for reporters to take photos. He even loudly said, "Yeah!"

Michelle said that Lau Ka Fai was in great spirits and responded quickly. When he shook hand he was very strong. She asked him to eat more and gain weight. Michelle said, "Lau Ka Fai was very happy. He missed his colleagues and even asked everyone not to go yet. Ms. Lok visited Lau Ka Fai many times at the nursing home. He said that he missed his colleagues and wanted to return to the company for visits. He also wanted to have company cafeteria's roast goose and steamed fish. Thus last night's dinner had both dishes. He had great appetite and ate a lot. I also asked him to come back to the company more from now on." Michelle revealed that Lau Ka Fai was very emotional when he saw Elliot Ngok Wa in the studio and they hug. He also visited the COME HOME LOVE set and took photos with Lau Tan and other artists.
