A Glass of Milk 一杯牛奶的温暖

He had his first starring role in 1990 in a Chow Yun at spoof: All for the Winner (Du 
Sheng) and started excelling in the comedy genre.   

Chow became the number one Hong Kong film actor of the 1990s, earning more than
 Jackie Chan by as much as two times. He made 29 films from 1990 to 1993.  Chow's 
style at the time of All for the Winner was called “Makes No Sense (wulitou)”. 
This style established his popularity in the 90s as a comic actor.   

Chow has also shown an interest in aspects of film production.  

He challenged the first director of his James Bond spoof From Beijing 
with Love (Guochan 007) (1994). He became more concerned with the production
 side of movie-making with the Journey to the West (Dahua Xiyou). And, he 
directed and starred in Shaolin Soccer (Shaolin Zuqiu), which was successful
 both in China and in the US.   

Stephen Chow, who has been practicing martial arts as an amateur since
 he was a boy, growing up in a poor family in Hong Kong, hopes to make a
 really Kongfu movie.   

“I had to think about how to make a breakthrough. After all, people
 have seen so many Kongfu movies. It’s a lot of pressure, but it was also 
a challenge.”   
One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by selling 
goods door to door found that he only had one dime left. He was hungry so he 
decided to beg for a meal at the next house.  

However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. 
Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry
 so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, 
“How much do I owe you?”  

“You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother has taught me never
 to accept pay for a kindness.” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom 
of my heart.” As Howard Kelly left that house, he not only felt stronger physically,
 but it also increased his faith in God and the human race. He was about to give up 
and quit before this point. 

Years later the young woman became critically ill. The local doctors were baffled.
 They finally sent her to the big city, where specialists can be called in to study 
her rare disease. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous was called in for the consultation.
 When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes.
 Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room. 

Dressed in his doctor’s gown he went in to see her. He recognized her at once.
He went back to the consultation room and determined to do his best to save her life. 
From that day on, he gave special attention to her case. 

After a long struggle, the battle was won. Dr. Kelly requested the business office
 to pass the final bill to him for approval. He looked at it and then wrote something 
on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she was 
positive that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, 
and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words...  

“Paid in full with a glass of milk.” 

(Signed) Dr. Howard Kelly 

Tears of joy flooded her eyes as she prayed silently: “Thank You, God. Your love
 has spread through human hearts and hands.”
