Baak Maan Fu Yung

Baak Maan Fu Yung (Chinese: 百萬富翁, Cantonese Yale: baak3 maan6 fu3 yung1, Jyutping: baak3 maan6 fu3 jung1, literally The Millionaire, also had the English words of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire surrounding the Chinese title) is a game show from Hong Kong, based off from the British game show Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?. The show's first host was Kenneth Chan. The main goal of the game is to win 1 million Hong Kong dollars by answering 15 multiple-choice questions correctly. There are three lifelines: 50:50, Phone-a-Friend and Ask the Audience. Baak Maan Fu Yung first aired on April 29, 2001 and concluded it's first run March 20, 2005. It is broadcast by Hong Kong's ATV.

Lifelines
In this version of show all three lifelines used:
 * 50:50
 * Phone-a-Friend (打電話, dǎ diànhuà)
 * Ask the Audience (問現場觀眾, wèn xiànchǎng guānzhòng)
