*** 能忍住不笑算你厉害!***

一户潘姓人家，长辈过世。
家祭时，请来了一位乡音很重的老先生来当司仪。

讣闻是这么写的：　　　
孝　男：潘根科　　　
孝　媳：池氏　　　
孝孙女：潘良慈　　
孝　孙：潘道时

但这位老先生老眼昏花又发音不标准。
当他照著讣闻唱名时，凡是字面上有三点水的或左边部首都漏掉没看到。

于是就给他念成这样子：「孝男，翻……跟……斗……」孝男一听，直觉得很奇怪，但又不敢问，于是就翻了一个跟斗。

接著又说：「孝媳，也……是……」孝媳一听：「我也要翻啊？」于是孝媳也翻了一个跟斗。

再来：「孝孙女，翻两次。」孝孙女一听，想想爸妈都翻了，我也翻吧！于是就翻了两个跟斗。

此时孝孙心想：「老爸、老妈都各翻一次，姐姐也翻两次，那么我要翻几次？」

心里想著想著就开始紧张了：「怎么办？」
只见老先生扯开喉咙，大声念出：

「孝孙……翻……到……死」

《幸福万岁》演员与晚报读者庆人日(Lianhe Wanbao Blockbuster Day )

I have won a pair of tickets to the event “A Date with Jack Neo” organizes by “联合晚报”，on 1 February 2009 Sunday, 12nn at Golden Village, VivoCity, Hall 4. 我找了一位朋友陪我一起与戏中演员一起看戏，玩游戏，捞鱼生。。。。

还有自助午餐享用。。。让你吃饱饱才进戏院看戏， 再让你笑到饿。。。。

梁智强导演2009年的贺岁片《幸福万岁》卡司强大，除了本地笑将辉哥程旭辉和的杨雁雁，阵容还包括来自马来西亚的多位电台名嘴，也为不少新人提供了展现演技的机会。

这部片子有别于梁导之前的电影，主题比以往的电影来得更敏感，并不像之前一样适合小朋友观赏。《幸福万岁》也因此被列为NC-16电影，失去阖家共赏的优势。

"幸福万岁"故事大纲

陈木成(程旭辉饰)，52岁，为人古板保守，是典型的中年华籍男子。由于妻子家丽(杨雁雁饰)忙于家务，夫妻间缺乏沟通，常常为了生活上的小事起争执，令木成非常苦恼。一次机缘巧合令木成萌生了“越轨”的动机……怎么知道，雪莲不但不是男人的梦中情人，反而是男人的“噩梦”…。

Jeremy杰奇(林德荣饰)，木成的“干弟弟”，36岁，自命风流，就像是一只没有脚的小鸟，每天徘徊在不同的异性当中。一次他冒充木成，帮班尼出席“家长日”，邂逅了清丽脱俗的黄美诗老师(李欣怡饰)，并开始追求行动。眼看就要追得美人归的时候，却惹祸上身！

Benny陈班尼(梁名皜饰)，17岁，是中学生，俨然就是一个情窦初开，对男女之间的爱情充满了好奇和幻想的少年男孩。班尼被同学们当成了捉弄的对象，把他跟心仪女同学Jennifer(爱雯饰)跳艳舞的事登上了网上视频成为男主角…。

故事通过陈木成、Jeremy杰奇和木成的儿子Benny陈班尼来代表三个年龄层的男性，从他们各自对男欢女爱的探索，挖掘出一些发人深省的正确观念，也当然引出一连串的笑话。只要是生活在东方这个即保守又压抑的社会的观众就一定能够了解、体会并认同当中的笑和泪！
