Leslie Cheung's last dinner conversation exposed: Want to die, best is jump off building

On April 1, 2011, it is Leslie Cheung's 8th anniversary since his death. On April 1, 2003 at 6:40pm, Leslie jumped from the Mandarin Oriental Hotel building ending his life. Before Leslie's death, the last person he saw was his designer friend Alfred Mok. The two met for lunch and had a 3 hour conversation. After 8 years, Alfred reveals the contents of the 'last dinner' during his [Mingpao Weekly] interview.

At the time, it was during the SARS devastation, Leslie wore a mouth mask, and told Alfred be careful when someone is coughing. At the time, Leslie was appeared a little nervous and his hands were shaking, but his appetite was pretty good. He ate very well. During lunch, Leslie wanted to copy down Alfred's ID card number, but he already did so earlier in the year. That day, he wanted to confirm. It turns out that the number was used on Leslie's will as a final small gift to him.

Leslie has seen many doctors for his mental illness, he even thought he bumped into ghosts and asked a Master to help him. This made him confused. In their conversation, he said that he thinks Sichuan captures spiritual influence, but Alfred suggested that he accompany him to see the doctor in the U.S. Leslie asked if he had an illness that cannot be cured with any medication or treatment, then what happens? Alfred said he may have ate sleeping pills, in case he discovers it and rescues. However, Leslie said he wanted to die, and the most direct way is to jump off a building. Alfred couldn't believe that Leslie really did adopt this method in the end.

Turns out that it was all planned, Alfred said that after the lunch meeting, Leslie told him that he will not answer his calls ever again. Later Leslie said a subtle statement to Alfred: "That hotel's window couldn't open." After the last dinner, Leslie told Alfred to not call him again. At the time he already felt something, so he called Leslie's sister immediately to keep track of him. At 6pm, his sister called back and told him to relax because she already called Leslie and knows he's on the streets of Central. Alfred felt heartbroken, 40 minutes later a friend called to tell him that Leslie jumped off from the Mandarin Oriental Hotel building.
