She first came to prominence as a disk jockey and radio personality working for Hong Kong's Commercial Radio (CRHK).

Cheuk Wan-chi, popularly known as G, is a creative and media personality from Hong Kong, China. In 2008, Cheuk enrolled at Goldsmiths, University of London to study Fine Art, however, she did not finish the degree due to low GPA. Working in a variety of mediums, her work is well received by Hong Kong's metropolitan middle class and youth. Cheuk started her career at Commercial Radio Hong Kong (CRHK), when she was 13 years old, as the youngest ever radio DJ in Hong Kong history. In addition to being a long-serving prime time radio presenter, Cheuk also became a columnist for various newspapers and magazines; anthologies from these publications make her one of Hong Kong's best-selling authors, with a top-3 best-seller benchmark. Cheuk has also released prose books and comic books. In 2007, Cheuk directed two short films, Lost & Found and Homo Sapiens. In the same year, she released two prose books, named Enemy of Kong Qiu and Dodgy. On 19 April 2008, which was incidentally the day of Famine 30, Cheuk released a book of her selected prose, What is Apple in Chinese?. She later held a book-reading-club function at Miramar Hotel on 25 April 2008. Cheuk finished her contemporary art project Born to Be A Witness. Solo exhibition was held in Madhouse Contemporary in 2009. In 2011, she held the first stand-up comedy solo show such as Anti-Indian racism and economic jokes by a female comedian in Hong Kong. Her stand-up special You Look Single and Come Rain or Come Shine were released through the streaming service Netflix. In the field of celebrity endorsement, she often collaborates with internationally acclaimed brands; her public persona being one associated with creativity, social networking and fashion.

Whilst still a 14-year-old, Secondary 4 student at St. Francis' Canossian College, Cheuk worked as a part-time DJ at Commercial Radio; her first show being a collaboration with Softhard. After graduating from Secondary 5, she became a full-time DJ at Commercial Radio's FM 90.3. Aged 17, she presented Gee See Goo Bi – I am Underaged; this programme was aired during off-peak hours and, for its time slot, attracted an unprecedented audience. Cheuk also created the radio serial, Gee See Goo Bi Family, of which the characters "Fu-Wing" and "Little Fu Sister" became break-out characters. It remains unknown as to who voiced "Fu-Wing" and "Little Fu Sister" in the Gee See Goo Bi Family; with claims that Cheuk voiced all five characters (in addition to "Fu-Wing" and "Little Fu Sister" the characters "Miss Jing", "Neither-Male-Nor-Female", and the "Man with the Hoarse Voice"). Cheuk has never publicly clarified this. Cheuk later created other programmes, including Merry-Go-Round, Five-Star Family, Big Villager and 36 Strategems.

In February 2008, Cheuk collaborated with Taiwan-based FunTown and South Korean developer RHAON to launch the online game RUNonline, known as HiYo Run Towards the Sky in Taiwan, it featured "Fu-Wing" and "Little Fu Sister". The Gee See Goo Bi Family comic was created by Wu-Shang-Hao. Cheuk has written a column in the persona of and using the pen name Fu-Wing, titled Fu-Wing's Writings, the column featured in Hong Kong lifestyle magazine Milk. Cheuk is often credited as "GC Goo-Bi", a transliteration of "芝See菇Bi" (Gee See Goo Bi).

On 19 June 2008, Cheuk announced that she would leave CRHK two weeks later, that it would only be for a short break and that she would continue her art projects. She said that she probably would return to school, but that she was still undecided about her specific direction. On 30 June 2008, during the Radio Television Hong Kong (RTHK) programme Gimme 5, radio hosts Leung Tak-Fai and Wong Tin-Yee spoke emotionally of Cheuk's departure. On 4 July 2008, Cheuk hosted the last episode of Torture University. The following day, before her official departure from the CRHK, she hosted the final episode of "Alabama". On 3 July 2009, Cheuk announced, on the programme Talk of the town, that she would be heading to London to study an art-related course. On 5 July 2009, Cheuk flew to London where she took up an art course at Goldsmiths College, University of London; at the time it was believed that Chi would be emigrating to the United Kingdom. However, in September 2010, Cheuk returned to, and announced that she would be settling in, Hong Kong.

In February 2008, Cheuk was selected to be a World Vision Famine Star, and together with Sammi Cheng and Gigi Leung participated in a charity trip to Laos.

• From 1999 to 2002, Cheuk was a columnist at the Oriental Daily, Sun Daily, Sing Tao Daily and Sing Pao. Her columns have been compiled into book form as "Live As A Whole Package", "Well Well" and others. • 6 December 2008 saw her last Apple Daily column, "Do not let me die at the weekend". • 3 March 2009 saw a new column in Ming Pao, titled "Cheuk Wan-chi is now writing". Later that year it was followed by two new columns "Romance and Prejudice" at New Monday Magazine, from 3 June, and "Cheuk Wan-chi Journey", for Ming Pao Weekly from 6 June. • Cheuk's current column is "Big asking for too much" in Weekend Weekly.

On 18 October 2006, Cheuk attempted suicide using medication at her home in Kowloon City. The given reason for this was grief from the loss of her mother, who had died of cancer. Her boyfriend discovered her and contacted the police. After being certified as being out of danger of any life-threatening complications, Cheuk stayed in the intensive care unit. The police subsequently found two suicide notes, which revealed her unhappiness. Two weeks later, Cheuk returned to work and continued to host her radio programmes, and also became again involved in film production work.

On 27 February 2012, Cheuk uploaded a photo to her personal weibo, that showed her wearing a real fox fur. This caused an angry response from internet users who denounced her through Facebook, Weibo and Discuss forums. Internet users at Weibo asked: "How can one talk about animal rights, if one can wear a corpse because of vanity?"; they did not accept Cheuk's apologies because of her frivolous attitude. On 1 March 2012, Cheuk issued a video response to the incident on YouTube. She referred to the fur in the photo as one no longer wanted by a friend, and that since it was a real fur and she did not want to waste it, she accepted it for reuse. She emphasised her respect for animal rights, and apologised for any distress caused by the incident. However, some internet users were of the view that her statement of respect for animal rights was at odds with her wearing fur; and that because she did not apologise for the acts of cruelty to animals (needed to harvest fur), and because she did not openly urge the public to refuse fur, that they could not accept her explanation or apologies. On 4 March 2012, internet users discovered that Cheuk, had for undeclared reasons, removed comments on the issue at Facebook, including comments both in support of and against her wearing fur. The internet users called this into question as, since she had set her Facebook as open to the public and to allow public comments, she should not delete comments indiscriminately.
