The java example should work as is in C#

I think I'm gonna ask a dumb question, but well, I've been crawling the 
web for about an hour or so and didn't find the answer, so let's ask :

Basically what I want is what can be done in Java the following way :

public class MyClass
{
private String member;

public MyClass ()
{
this("stuff");
}

public MyClass (String s)
{
this.member = s;
}
}

or in vb this way (according to http://tinyurl.com/3lcyy) :

Public Class Manager
Private nameField As String

Public Sub New()
'give nameField a default value
nameField = "Tony"
System.Console.WriteLine("I am the manager.")
End Sub

Public Sub New(ByVal name As String)
nameField = name
System.Console.WriteLine("I am the manager.")
End Sub
End Class

I noticed I could do something like :

public class MyClass
{
private string member;

public MyClass () : this("stuff") {}

public MyClass (string s)
{
this.member = s;
}
}

but I've got some checks to do before calling the second constructor and 
therefore cannot use that method.
Any hint ?

Regards,
