Chingmy Yau is a Hong Kong actress who no longer takes part in films although she is not formally retired.[citation needed]
Yau entered the Hong Kong film industry after competing in the 1987 Miss Hong Kong Beauty Pageant.
She was one of the leading actresses in the late 1980s and early 1990s, next to Maggie Cheung, Brigitte Lin and Cheung Man. Wong cast her in a series of Category III films, though she never appeared nude in any of them. The most notable of these was Naked Killer (1992). During the height of her success, she regularly starred alongside superstars like Jet Li, Stephen Chow, and Ekin Cheng.
In 1999 she married Hong Kong fashion designer Shen Jiawei, founder of Hong Kong-based fashion company I.T. They have three children together.
There's nothing in this place that excites me anymore
I long only for nightmares, for apocalypse and war
I'm bored out of my skull, let's play a different game
Let's pay a visit down below and cast the world in flames
There is beauty in fire when all lights are out
And there's truth in all things we've learned to live without
The devil in the doorway is defined within our blood
But we can always play and make believe
A wondrous design, a bored and brutal mind
So ready to inflict his sense of justice on mankind
A fly upon the wall, I watch as he evolves
And follow as the world around him steadily dissolves
And in the world beyond this day there will be faith no more
The certainty of your new God, is all you need to know
This not the peace you had in mind? The one you waited for?
There is no land beyond his law, there is no place to go
