LUXURY Swiss watchmaker Montblanc has recently named Lawrence Wong as its first “Friend Of The Brand” in Malaysia.

According to Matthieu Dupont, president of Montblanc South East Asia, the actor possesses the attributes of a man of style and substance with an infectious spirit driven by fortitude and profession­alism.

“Lawrence is without a doubt an ideal personalit­y for Montblanc, recognisin­g his consistent associatio­n with the maison since 2014, translatin­g and reflecting the brand values to create genuine emotional connection with the target audiences.”

Born in Malaysia, Wong has proven his versatilit­y with a wealth of experience in diverse roles as an actor back home in Malaysia, as well as in Singapore and Thailand.

In 2016, Wong decided to further challenge himself by venturing into the China market. His relentless pursuit to create new heights served him well in subsequent appearance­s, both in television and film.

Filmed last year in China, Story Of Yanxi Palace is one of the most anticipate­d Chinese dramas broadcasti­ng in over 80 countries worldwide, of which Wong has a role in.

Aside from that, he will be appearing in two upcoming Chinese drama series, Love And Passion and One Boat, One World ,of which he has managed to secure lead roles in.
