Tavia Yeung - A "Clear Water" Life

Thirteen years ago, Tavia Yeung entered showbiz and started her acting career. Back then, she didn't learn from others and tried to pull publicity stunts. Perhaps this is the reason why it took her 10 years before she started getting recognition from the public. Tavia depended on her acting and abilities to get where she is today. She doesn't mind being known as "Clear Water" (清水) because you can't become a phoenix overnight.

Clear Water: Practical - Won't Rely on the Media to Gain Recognition

In the recent years, Miss HK contestants haven't even been crowned yet, but are seen all over the headlines of Hong Kong newspapers. In the last 13 years, Tavia rarely had any rumors, it was only in the past two years that the rumors started 'surfacing'. In the early years of her career, she didn't have any scandals, didn't get involved in disputes, never deliberately made any news, she carried as "silent" personality throughout. The media called her 'Clear Water' because she's just as simple as clear water, like she has nothing.

Tavia: "I am Clear Water, I think it's good. At least it's a positive image. At least I'm not some strong cup of alcoholic drink, can't shallow it. Perhaps some people can accept it, while others cannot. In showbiz, the ultimate goal is to be able to be accepted by the public. Think about it, how many people like to drink strong alcohol, while watching TV? When other beverages are drank too much, we will all eventually go back to drinking clear water. So, describing me as Clear Water, I am very pleased."

Clear water differs from other drinks, such as strong alcohol, coffee or tea, it does not require personal taste nor does it have the so-called glamorous rank. A cup of strong alcohol, has a rank, has a taste, it's strong and can get you drunk. Over drinking can get you a hangover, then it's all worthless; A cup of coffee, has a certain value, tangible benefits, many different tastes, people first considers its quality before making a selection, but then its gustation; A cup of Clear Water, has no taste, no fragrance, it's light and clear, but it's thought provoking.

A cup of Clear Water is simple, no additives and is suitable at anytime, any day and in any situation. Compared to other beverages it is more popular because it's "popularized" and very easy to "accept". This describes Tavia, she does not need any exaggerated rumors, just taking it slowly is actually easier for audience to accept her.

Clear Water : Views - This Industry is Uncommon

"Everything originated from a cup of Clear Water, when doing anything, it all starts from Clear Water. Whether Clear Water could be diverse or not, it is all based on how that person is taught."

But, artists should be multicolored and have an unique flavor to be able to make a breakthrough. Aside from being popularized, Clear Water doesn't have any outstanding qualities, but Tavia apparently wants to keep being Clear Water. Even if there is no way she could stand out among all the beverages, it doesn't matter to her.

"I'm willing to be like this, its uncommon to be in this industry, but because it's uncommon, I'm willing to be a commoner. But, the most important is, I hope to maintain the purity, and be Clear Water without any impurity. Even if everyone thinks it's better to have more diversity now, but being simple inside is very important."

Clear Water: Realistic - Depend Only on Hard Work to Climb Up

"I think coming out of the Artistes Training Class is a bit stronger, especially with the fundamentals. I'm not saying Miss HK isn't good, just you spend a longer period of time in the Training Class. You have to go from a nobody to someone that people knows. After completing the training, you have to get chosen by [producers] to be able to participate in TV series. Then, you have to wait for the series to air, and after it airs, you have to see if your character left a deep impression on audience. I believe if you want to get up top, you can only rely on your own hard work. You have to count on yourself, count on leaving a deep impression for audience, and to take advantage of the opportunities before you."

Constant perseverance yields success. It is overtime that your accomplishments are seen. Graduated from the TVB Artistes Training Class, Tavia is like a cup that went through a filter before getting to the drinkable water. She took it step by step getting through the layers and layers of sand, gravel and cotton before she was able to get drinking water out. Each step, each footprint; each series, each role; year after year, day after day of training and learning, got her where she is today.

"I think I'm very lucky and have put in a lot of time. If we take the last 12-13 years, I had a pile of luck because many people have debuted earlier than me, and they have actually been very hard working as well, but they still have nothing."

Clear Water - Procedure: Insist on the Convention

"My current position in the course of my life is I am at the stage of work. My next stage in life may be marriage and having children. Then, I must go through illness and death. I just believe this is a life process. I won't jump over a stage in life and not do it. For example, I want to marry. People have asked me if I want to do a wedding photo shoot, I say of course. It is part of my life memories. If he gets old one day, and realizes you have done so many wedding shoots, but none of them are with the person you love, someone who stands next to you to take these wedding photos, then I feel it's a regret. So, I will not miss these steps."

However, Tavia is not rushed for marriage or having kids.

"I believe women have had a moment where its love at first sight. Of course, you look at the person's appearance first, but when you enter the professional world and meet more people, you will no longer believe love at first sight. Because love at first sight, will never leave from the looks that attracted you. I just feel I have to be more realistic, must look at how his personality is like and be friends first. Because in this industry, there are too many attractive things, there are the beautiful ones, like the handsome and very masculine men, these are all just descriptions based on the outer appearance."

Epilogue

Within the showbiz of brilliant colors, if you don't have status, then you will have to spend a few more years of time in order to gain recognition; If you don't have any eye-catching scenes, then you will have to put in much greater effort to let the audience know that you are around. The "Clear Water" Tavia Yeung, who does not pull publicity stunts, have been in this industry for over 10 years before she gradually gets "free publicity", and this is when she really gets a sense of how popular artists are surrounded by gossips.

Although in reality, we all know newcomers want more rumors and gossips in order to become famous faster, but if these rumors are going on every day, it's going to get boring. Just like drinking the same beverage everyday, eventually it gets tiring. Actually, a cup of Clear Water, wins over every beverage out there.

Reality is reality, must have a realistic attitude. Getting popular from rumors, that's just a moment of fame; Getting popular from your true capabilities, that's going to be lasting; Learn to crawl before learning to walk, slowly leave footprints one step at a time; Becoming popular in a reasonable manner, will get you further. Tavia Yeung deeply understands this principle, just silently plowing through as a cup of Clear Water.

Myolie Wu announces her break up with Bosco Wong

Today Myolie Wu announced she broke up with Bosco Wong, ending their 8 year relationship. She still insisted on attending the Ghetto Justice II promotional event, but forced a smile while playing the games. Myolie appeared tired at the promotion, she revealed she and Bosco were on a break for a while, and the break up happened a few months ago. Bosco said he'll wait for her and use time to prove everything. Myolie started tearing up after she heard this: "I'm sorry, I don't want it to be like this, seems like it's becoming such a big deal. I hope...we are adults, I hope we can leave this undisturbed and handle it maturely." During the time, she kept using tissues to wipe away her tears. When asked if Bosco had a third party? Myolie expressed they have already broken up, and she cannot respond for him. She only said she didn't have a third party. She said its been a long time since she's seen Bosco and they broke up peacefully.

When speaking of Bosco, expressing he will take the whole issue on himself and even if he dies, he won't let Myolie get hurt. Myolie started tearing up again, and said: "I hope you all (the media/public) don't have too many speculations. All along, we've been thinking of several different ways of how to explain the issue." Asked if she already moved out of their 'love nest'? Myolie said they have always been living separately.

Earlier this morning, on Eileen Cha's radio interview, Myolie said it was after deep thoughts before they decided to peacefully break up. The first person to find out was Bosco's mother. When asked if its because of a third party, Myolie said she has no right to answer for him, but they have once thought of staying together, unfortunately it did not work out. She said fate decided it.

Bosco: My personality is hard to bear

When Eileen Cha interviewed Bosco, he already tried his hardest to patch the relationship up, he said: "I wanted to stay together, but if it doesn't work, then it doesn't work. It's not about who called it quits, we discussed the matter in a matured manner." He said the moment of the break up, it felt like a bolt from the blue. Did they started having issues last year when Myolie got the TV Queen title? Bosco said: "Perhaps it's because of personality, it's hard to bear. When I'm stressed, I don't talk to anyone about it, and don't really communicate well. I don't even tell my mom. There is nothing men can't handle."

It was rumored Bosco sparked with a Mainland actress? Bosco emphasized that he will take it all in and protect Myolie: "Definitely not. The actress and I only had two scenes together. [The break up] is between Myolie and me, not related to a third party. It's fine if the media writes about me, I'm used to being defamed, men can handle it." He stressed although he and Myolie broke up, they are still friends. As for if there is a chance of them getting back together, he will not force it.

Virgina Lok: Bosco cried severely

Yesterday Virgina accepted a phone interview with Eileen Cha, she said: "I was on the phone with Bosco until 4am last night, he just kept saying he didn't want [to break up], and cried really hard. He said he would wait and show Myolie he could change." It was said Bosco dated 3 girls within 6 months? Virgina stressed Bosco is not that type of person and does not believe there was a third party between them. She exposed Bosco had always wanted to marry Myolie, but when speaking of Bosco's negative news? She said: "He can handle it, he said to just hurt him and he doesn't want anything to hurt Myolie. He also said whatever negative thing said about Myolie, he rather die. (Why did they break up?) Perhaps of the wrong timing. Women need sense of security, while men need to keep on working on the career. Frequently not being able to be together and the rumors can affect the relationship." Also, Bosco's good friend Tang Chi Wai expressed over the phone: "I contacted him last night too, he cried. It's such a pity."

Regarding to the relationship already started having issues last year when Myolie got TV Queen? Myolie was interviewed later and said she actually does not know why Bosco said that because the issues didn't start during that time. Then Myolie expressed that's why she doesn't want to talk about it in such detail, it's unfair to both of them. The reporter said well if she doesn't explain it, then people will speculate. Myolie said even if she does, people will still write nonsense. There were several reports on why they broke up. Some say Bosco is actually very quiet at home, but Myolie said it's not related. Myolie continued and expressed whatever reason it is, she does not want to talk about it because the relationship is between the two of them.

Kenneth Ma flirts with every girl, Tavia Yeung criticizes he's just all talk

Following The Hippocratic Crush, Kenneth Ma and Tavia Yeung are paired up again in new series Three Kingdoms RPG (TKRPG). In the series, Kenneth's role travels back in time, and is a pretty outstanding and challenging role. His on-screen partner, Tavia also praises that his role is fun. Although TKRPG was said to be a series broadcasting during the period of the 'ashes', Tavia joked: "When there's Raymond Lam in it, then it's not ashes!"

Kenneth's role in TKRPG is ignorant and incompetent, but his nonsense, the "HK Guy's 18 Styles" has left a deep impression on audience. He frankly expressed the role resembles today's young people: "So, when I get back to the Three Kingdoms, I learned the Chinese traditional cultures and virtues. Actually this series does describe that the values of modern people really differs from the people back in ancient times."

A Good Husband Candidate

Although in the series Tavia and Kenneth are a couple, Tavia still frowns and complains: "Kenneth is terrible, he doesn't like me!" Taking the modern view of love into the ancient world, Kenneth laughed: "There are a lot more playboys in the modern world, they just have to hit on all the girls, but eventually my character will learn to cherish this girl (Tavia's role)."

When speaking of Kenneth singing a love song to Tavia in the series? Kenneth laughed and said he sang a few songs, but in real life he has never sang love songs to his girlfriends before. Although Kenneth has a boring and non-romantic personality, Tavia exposes that Kenneth does more talking than doing: "He is a person that can make everything sound invincible, but actually he has no capability of doing any of it! I know him very well though, sometimes he can be pretty attentive and treats his mother quite well. Being with him can be get pretty boring, usually he just goes out to play ball and grocery shopping with his mother, but that's the first choice when choosing a husband."

Don't mind being a couple team

In terms of appearances, Tavia Yeung and Kenneth Ma match quite well as an on-screen couple, and are a favorite pair to many in the public, but how come they don't go as a 'couple team' to events and earn more money together? Tavia laughed: "I want to too, but the truth is, there are schedule conflicts. I have work every day, and do hope to earn some extra income as a couple team." When speaking of her hot rumors with Him Law? Tavia expressed she does not mind making extra income together with him: "If there really are job offers, I'll be more than happy to accept them!" Asked if its because she'll get more money if Him Law attends the events with her? Tavia laughed: "Not related, I just think if there is guy standing next to me, then the price would definitely be higher! Of course, whether if it's Kenneth Ma or Him Law, the most practical is earning money. I personally will not decline to jobs just because of the rumors with Him."

Soon after, Tavia quickly changed the subject and exposed that Kenneth is actively looking for a wife now! However, she was just referring to getting a new car. Kenneth said: "Not actively looking, I just want to get a 7-seater van, convenient to take my family out on Sundays."

Jessica Hsuan wants to be the bad person and kidnapper
Jessica Hsuan, Joe Ma, Vincent Wong and Yoyo Chen attended the promotional event for TVB series Tiger Cubs yesterday. The current broadcast times for the series are on Saturdays and Sundays, Jessica expressed she was initially worried viewers may get confused and miss the Saturday broadcast, and hence affect the ratings. Now that the ratings are doing well, it truly helped opened a new series broadcast time slot. Joe expressed if the ratings get better, he'll treat the cast and crew a meal to celebrate. Asked if he'll wear swim trunks? He said: "To make it even more enjoyable, we can go for a cruise trip." Asked if Jessica would wear a bikini to celebrate? She shook her head and expressed that she'll leave the heavy responsibility to the younger ones, like Yoyo Chen.

Earlier it was reported based on statistics, Jessica has been held hostage 24 times in the 18 years of her acting career. Jessica said: "So happy, never thought I've been kidnapped that many times, but its better to get kidnapped than wearing a wedding dress. Each time, there are different weapons and people, it's so exciting. Once I see wedding dresses, I get bored. (How about when you wear one for your actual wedding?) I don't like to make a big deal out of it, just peacefully get married. I may not even wear a wedding dress." When asked if she wants to be the kidnapper instead? Jessica said she wants to be a bad person and then she immediately pretended to kidnap Joe Ma, but he laughed and said she's not convincing. Jessica said the person she's kidnapping can't be like Joe, 6 feet tall.

Joe was asked about not being in Triumph in the Skies II? He said: "I'm already very happy to be able to be in the first part. I see the cast for the sequel is pretty strong as well, but I already died in the first one, can no longer come back to life." He expressed if it's reasonable for the story and TVB needs him, he can make a guest appearance.

Francis Ng & Chilam Cheung at 'Triumph in the Skies II' Press Conference

After 9 years since Triumph in the Skies, the sequel Triumph in the Skies II is finally starting. Yesterday Francis Ng, Chilam Cheung, Myolie Wu, Fala Chen, Ron Ng, Kenneth Ma, Rebecca Zhu, Elena Kong and the rest of the cast attended the press conference.

Back then, there were rumors that Francis Ng was displeased with Myolie, but yesterday they chatted happily. Francis even teased that Myolie looks fatter than before. He also said to Ron: "You came early!" indirectly criticizing that he used to be late to work. Ron expressed: "Francis and I still have a brotherly relationship, but I'm no longer the young man 10 years ago, our relationship evolved into a friendship and we get along more comfortably."

Francis hasn't been in a TVB series for many years, he smiled and said: "I'm getting a huge raise." He also denied the rumor that he was delaying TITS2 from starting. It was said TVB is relying on him to save the lack of Siu Sangs? Francis expressed: "Wah! I have a lot of Siu Sangs behind me!" He is not worried about working with newcomers, but he fears he may break his promise and come late to work. Francis exposed back when he was shooting TITS, he had a naughty idea to get out of work. Because shooting was too exhausting, he and the others played 'rock paper scissors' to see who would have to pretend to be sick, so they can get a day off from work. At the time, Myolie was still a newcomer, so she didn't participate and had to get to work early.

Chilam sets the next 6 months aside to shoot TITS2 and has turned down several opportunities to shoot in Mainland, losing quite a bit of money. He frankly expressed he accepted this series to return a favor, because back then, executive Tommy Leung, casted him in Cold Blood Warm Heart and got him a lot more job opportunities. This time, he's playing a senior pilot and plans to use clothing from his own personal wardrobe, which is worth about 6 figures. When asked if he's paying TVB, instead of TVB paying him? Chilam laughed: "Because of Tommy, doing it for the audience, no choice, I'm just too good friends with Tommy."

Myolie plays two roles in the series. She exposed Zoe will only appear in the first two episodes and then she dies. Her other role is a tomboy, who works in aircraft maintenance. The producer asked her to cut her hair short for the role, but Myolie is reluctant to give up her current haircut, but for the sake of work, she will accept it.

In the series Fala gets into a love triangle with Francis and Chilam, but she doesn't know who she'll end up with yet. Fala said her development with Francis starts off as a bickering pair, while Chilam is the charming pilot who has a romantic storyline with her. She's unsure if there are any kiss scenes, she laughed: "Perhaps when we get to France, in the romantic atmosphere, we'll go for a light kiss. I'm not too worried since there's a television scale."

Kenneth Ma develops a 'sister-brother love' with Elena Kong. He expressed in reality he does not mind this type of relationship, women does not necessarily need men to take care of her, it could be vice versa. He also said he can accept a girlfriend 20 years older than him too, but he never been in such a relationship before.

TITS2's blessing ceremony is scheduled to take place on July 24th and filming officially starts on July 26th. Filming will go on for 6 months, and filming locations will be in London, Paris, Hainan and Taiwan.

Myolie Wu almost got pants pulled down by Roger Kwok on 'Fun Three 1/2 Weeks'

Last night, TVB recorded Fun Three 1/2 Weeks's anniversary special, where many artists including Myolie Wu, Roger Kwok, Jazz Lam, Timmy Hung, Michael Tse, Eric Tsang, Louis Yuen, Kenneth Ma, Kate Tsui and Jason Chan participated. The artists reenacted the old anniversary skits done by Chow Yun Fat, Andy Lau, Tony Leung, Patrick Tang, Lydia Shum, which included 武松打虎 (1982), 朱門新怨 (1988), 一步一開心 (1988) and 呆佬拜壽 (1993). Myolie reenacted 一步一開心 with Roger Kwok, and almost lost her pants just like how Yumiko Cheng previously did during her Tung Wah Charity Show performance.

When Myolie and the others were playing so hard on the slanted platform that they forgot about their appearances, Roger quickly goes and pulls Myolie's athletic pants off, making her reveal her fine waist and underwear. Myolie got so frightened she quickly got back on the ground and tied her pants tightly. At first, Myolie didn't believe her underwear was revealed, but when the others were able to say the color of her underwear, she laughed: "I didn't wear leopard panties today, whatever was revealed must just be the side, it's just the side of it. Phew, scared me! No problem! I'm very conservative. It was so much fun tonight, what's most important is viewers enjoy watching too. (Almost becoming a second Yumiko?) mm, I'm scared!" Jazz expressed on stage that her boyfriend Bosco Wong is hugging girls to upset her, but Myolie generously expressed it's just a joke, but if he dares to do that, she will have to ask Bosco himself. In the end, she kept asking again if it was really true she revealed her underwear.

The other thriller happened to Timmy Hung. When he was performing 呆佬拜壽 , he kept tripping on the 'plum blossom stumps' and got pushed down by Yoyo Mung. Timmy ended up bumping his sensitive areas. He expressed: "I'm okay, I know how high that area is, relax, I can still have babies!"

Another shocker was in 武松打虎, when Michael Tse kissed Louis on the lips. Everyone in the studio were shocked. Michael later expressed: "That's my surprise to Louis and the audience. If I said it before the fact, then it won't be fun anymore. That moment, audience were able to give us a reaction." How does Louis' lips feel? Michael laughed: "Smelled like lipstick, his lips were exceptionally soft."

Michael Tse proposes to Tavia Yeung gets 500 bystanders' support

Tavia Yeung and Michael Tse were shooting a marriage proposal scene for TVB new series Justice Pursuit & Attack on the busy street in Causeway Bay. Nearly 500 bystanders and tourists watching the scene, pushed through into the restricted area and obstructed the shoot. On camera, there were suddenly a few hundred extra temporary actors that appeared, this time TVB really profited! Tavia Yeung can't help being too charming, one four eyed man successfully got close to her and kept taking pictures, which frightened Tavia a bit and didn't know what to do. In the end, a staff had to come in and protect her. Because of the crowded street, at one point, the police came by to check on them.

In one scene, Tavia and Sharon were taking a stroll on the streets and were surrounded by a large group of pedestrians. During the time, a four eyed man dressed in a white suit came close and stared at Tavia and took close up shots of her. Tavia was a little frightened, but remained calm. The staff besides her immediately went forward to protect her. Tavia later expressed: "That man wasn't a temporary actor. Actually that's how it is when shooting on a busy street, I wasn't frightened. I was just afraid it would hinder us from shooting the scene. We have to use time wisely to complete the scene." Tavia stressed she didn't have any body contact with the man because she was protected by the staff around her. Asked if the four eyed man's eye expressions made her feel uncomfortable? She said she didn't care and didn't look at him.

Later, the scene where Michael proposes to her was a big deal. He first told Otto Chan to lay out the red carpet, and then dressed in a white suit, Michael sang Tavia a love song on the red carpet to confess his love for her. Good friend Sammy Leung was by his side capturing the whole thing on video, while Sharon Chan and Benz Hui were on the side cheering for them. Tavia appeared very surprised. Later, the two had a dance in front of the 500 onlookers, but didn't have any kiss scene.

When asked why she didn't have a kiss scene with Michael? Tavia said: "That's how the scene was arranged, I rejected him and then left. This is one of the big scenes in the middle of the series, it's pretty shocking, but not too difficult." When asked if she had ever thought of how it would be like when rumored boyfriend Him Law proposes? Tavia laughed: "Most important is to find a suitable partner, doesn't have to be anything big. We already have too much attention, artists shouldn't have too much attention, just let nature take its course and everything goes normally, I'll be happy enough."

Michael gets rejected, the Crowd goes silent

When Michael did the proposal scene, his face and ears turned red. Everyone cheered when he made his proposal to Tavia. Michael laughed and said, he was so nervous he started sweating and his heart beating loudly: "That moment felt special, the live audience really made a nice atmosphere. Just now when Tavia rejected me and left, the entire crowd at Causeway Bay went silent! That was a very real reaction, priceless! It made me think of back when I proposed to my wife, the young man feelings all came back! Its quite cute. (Did you know Tavia was frightened by a man staring at her?) I had people approach me too, only thing is to try best to protect her during idle time."

Tavia Yeung supports Kenneth Ma's acting, not too old for role

TVB new series Three Kingdoms RPG has recently been attacked by Netizens that it's a sloppy production, Kenneth Ma's too old for the role and his acting is too exaggerated. Despite the criticisms, it was announced yesterday at the promotion the premiere week averaged at 30 points, peaking 35 points. The cast including Raymond Lam, Kenneth Ma, Tavia Yeung, Leung Ka Kei, Sharon Chan, Ruco Chan and the rest of the cast took part in the promotional event. The cast were not affected by the criticisms and happily played the games. Raymond reveals he's planning to celebrate with the cast and crew next week as well.

When speaking of the poor special effects seen in the series? Raymond said: "Already said before there won't be large-scale battle scenes, it's just a simple production using a historical setting." Kenneth is too old for his role? He said: "TV series are to entertain audience, just as long as viewers enjoy watching. The Kenneth I know is very quiet, this time it's a breakthrough for him. He's exaggerated because its a comedy." Raymond also denied the saying that Kenneth replaced Ron Ng. Netizens attacked Leung Ka Kei's acting as well, but Raymond supported her, she was comfortable, competent and respectful towards her work. Raymond said she just appeared in the series, so judgements shouldn't be made too early.

Tavia denied that the series is a sloppy production because it's not focused on the magnificent battles, but rather the theme of traveling back in time. The importance is being able to bring in the comedy and a fresh feeling. As for Kenneth being attacked by Netizens? She said: "I don't think he's old, he performed very well. There is no definition of how old a gamer has to be, could be up to 50 years old." She also praised Kenneth had a lot of development in his role, and has a different style than Ron Ng. She didn't see Ron Ng's version of the role, but she believes they will both produce a different effect.

Also, this year Tavia has 5 series on hand, it was said she can compete with TV Queen Myolie Wu this year. Tavia said: "Last year I had 4 series, can't validate it like that. Many things are about the quality, not quantity. Have to see if its a good time along with many other factors for it to work. (Ex-rumored boyfriend Chris Lai is rumored dating a wealthy girl, if he gets married, will you wish him happiness?) Of course happiness, otherwise do I hope for them to break up?!"

Raymond Lam supports 'Three Kingdoms RPG' differs from 'A Step into the Past'

TVB new series Three Kingdoms RPG (TKRPG) starring Raymond Lam, Kenneth Ma and Tavia Yeung has been continuously criticized by Netizens in the last several days. Strong criticisms centered on how TKRPG was poorly done compared to the 11 year old popular time travel series A Step into the Past. The special effects were ridiculously fake, the war scenes had no horses and the lead actors were attacked as well. Raymond and Kenneth were the target of attacks by Netizens. Kenneth's acting was too exaggerated and he's not suitable to play a young gamer based on his age. As for Raymond, his slow reactions make Chu Ge Leung (Zhuge Liang) seem incompetent and stupid.

Raymond strongly supported TKRPG that it is different from A Step into the Past and expressed for his ChuGot Leung role, he has put in all his heart: "This is my first time putting on a fake mustache for the entire series, it was difficult. My laugh in the series sounds like Santa Claus, always 'Ho Ho Ho', because I was afraid the mustache would fall off." He also praises his partner Leung Ka Kei's professionalism: "I told her that her role (ChuGot Leung's wife) is an ill and ugly woman in history, so I told her not to put on fake eye-lashes and her lipstick should be as light as possible. She really trusted me, very professional." Raymond also reveals he will no longer shoot another TVB series this year, he said: "Coming up, I have to shoot a Mainland drama, release a new album and shoot films. I hope to establish a foundation in the film scene first." He discloses he currently will shoot one series per year with TVB.

Yesterday when Kenneth was recording for TVB new show (玩轉三周1/2), he responded to criticisms of his exaggerated acting, he said: "There will definitely be a little in comedy. My role was created to be very high, so can't be too calm. A lot of the funny scenes comes from on the spot improvisation. The initial plan was to make it funny, the most important is audience to think its funny. (Then are you stealing Raymond Lam's limelight?) He has his smart side."
