If u are coming for the Aviva Open, do let us know in advance?? We can meet up and approach Bao and Fu together!!

Btw, I do have some great Fu pics, I will post them up in Fu's thread. Keep a lookout on the main page for the thread!

That'd be great!!! I'll sure let u guys know!! ^^ If we're lucky, we'll all be happily bringing our photos with Fu and Bao! Anyway, have u guys actually got the confirmation that they are coming?? Btw, in the Indonesia Open, I tried to approach Fu, but he refused to give me both his signature and photo. I guess my timing was not correct 'cause he was about to have his semifinal match soon. Or is he always like that? Cai Yun was nice, though! He smiled when I told him to "jia you!!" I took photos with Zhang Jun and Yang Wei anyway, and I've got autographs of some of the players.. But I haven't got what I want the most: photos with Fu and Bao!!

Well, then charm, can u advise me on this? I'd appreciate it so much.. Hehehe

And thanks laby! I'll be waiting for Fu's photos!!^^ U rock!!!

hello to all other bao friends! anybody gg to the aviva open? yay yay yay. heehee actually its rather stressful finding bao chunlai etc etc

energy draining man! ooh labyyyyy. i love the pictures! where from!

I am coming 20 this yr!! I was from Anglican High, the badminton team is quite good, so didn't join!!

How bout u??

I got those pics from many websites, but the main ones would be the one that I mentioned earlier and this one: http://www.xiaxuanzeclub.com/bbs
It's a badminton forum predominantly for Chinese players. Great website, but the loading time is vvvvv long. Wondering if it's only for me, maybe u guys can check it out and let me know if u experience this prob!!

Took an extremely long time to check out the threads on Bao!! But the Chinese fans always have vv exclusive pics of Bao! *envy* so I just collect these pics from many many websites and put as a Bao album!

As for the photo u took with him, I think u mentioned that it's in ur phone right? Oh.. I want to see it very badly!! Anyway, I agree with you that he's quite cold. I still rem his expression last yr, that's why I told u I don't dare to approach him at all.

After he signed for me with ur pink pen

, I stayed away and took his photo secretly. I think he also saw that, and he must be thinking that I am a crazy fan.

Oops.. so this yr, cannot be too agressive. I think he's like a gentle giant, if we keep pestering him, he gets very uncomfortable!!

Hi magical_phoenix, I have already uploaded Fu's pics, do check them out!

The players' list is still not updated yet, I guess it will only be updated by mid June. Don't worry!! I think Fu rejected you because he has to play a match and he doesn't want to lose his concentration. I think u should approach him after his game, best if he wins that game. That was what charm and I did. Waiting for Bao by the steps and get his signature!!

How bout posting ur pics with the other players??

P.S: Yannie, I will upload CY's pics tmr, cos my mum is nagging me to switch off the com!!

So this yr let's not procrastinate!!!

P.S: Warning!! There will be a flood of Bao's pics in the next few replies, cos I can't contain it anymore!! I must share great photos with u guys!!

Me and 3 other frenz r going together (we went there together also last yr). But this yr since we bought season tix, guess we'll be catching most of the games (if not working... hahaha) Oh yah.. me working liao..

Wanna join me n my frenz then ?
Wif u ard, maybe we can go get his autograph n at the same time, take a pic wif him !!

Hi yannie, yolanda is a Chinese reporter and she covers the sports section (if not, the badminton section). So she always get great pics of the China badminton stars whenever she interviews them!

I just got a temp job and would be working from 830 to 6pm on weekdays. Arghh.. I hope Bao's matches will be scheduled in the evening so that I can go and watch him play!!

I think we can have a mini Bao fans' gathering during SO.
