Biography

Law Siu Fai was a native of Chaozhou, Guangdong. He attended St. Francis of Assisi's English Primary School. He dropped out in Form 3 at age 14 and entered society at 16. In 1985, he entered the real estate brokerage industry and gained the appreciation and support of tycoon Joseph Lau. By 1997, he was estimated to be worth HK$2 billion. However, he became a negative asset holder during the Asian financial crisis, ending up in massive debt.

In 2002, he attempted suicide by charcoal burning on his private yacht but was rescued. In his destitute days, some of his old friends helped him. One such person was Macau figure Ng Wai, nicknamed "Market Wai", who offered Law a long-term hotel room at Macau's Hotel New Century for his living needs.

In January 2005, Law hosted a sex-and-drugs party in the same hotel and was arrested by Macau police for drug use and trafficking. On March 16, 2007, he was sentenced to two years' probation and fined 10,000 patacas. He later moved to Dongguan and stayed under the care of the owner of "Good Luck Hotel" in Changping, Dongguan.

On January 24, 2011, Law collapsed and died of a heart attack in a law firm in Changping, Dongguan, at the age of 47. After examination, it was confirmed that he died of myocardial infarction, and the cause of death was deemed non-suspicious.

Scandals

Law Siu Fai once made headlines by exposing intimate photos, involving actresses such as Sung Ka-yun and Danielle Graham. He also reportedly discussed his sexual encounters with multiple celebrities with friends. According to reports, he claimed to have had actual sexual relationships with only Sung Ka-yun and a Miss Hong Kong titleholder, "Miss Y", who asked him to "take care" of her after breaking up with another tycoon's son. He claimed to have supported her for one to two months. A busty actress, "Miss L", was said to be the first actress he ever financially supported.

Yuen Wing-yee, a former Miss Hong Kong, admitted on TVB talk show "Be My Guest" that she had once been "taken care of" by a married man. Some mainland Chinese media speculated she was referring to Law Siu Fai, but mainstream Hong Kong media believed she meant Peter Lam.
