TVB Board of Directors member Li Ruigang, Executive Chairman Thomas Hui, General Manager (Content Operations) Eric Tsang, General Manager (Business Operations) Siu Sai Wo, et al. led a group of artistes, Moses Chan, Kenneth Ma, Samantha Ko, Ruco Chan, Rosita Kwok, Kelly Cheung, Huang Bo, et al., to appear in Guangzhou today to attend the 'TVB Internal and External New Chapter - Greater Bay Area Film and Television Grand Launch'. Chung Shu Kai, the executive producer of "The QUEEN of News²", announced on site that the series will be broadcasting this year, and TVB will later be collaborating with a Mainland platform to film the classic work "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer".
Kenneth is filming "QUEEN". He, who plays a news anchor, was on location reporting a rainstorm that only happens once every 500 years. During the filming, a machine was used to create a storm; the realistic outcome made him feel the performance. Samantha, who was next to him, expressed that she has been promoted to being a senior official in the series, and her relationship with Charmaine Sheh (「Man姐」) is neither friendly nor aloof, having the feeling of being both friend and foe to each other. In the previous installment, she had many scenes with Kenneth. This time, the two will still use each other for their mutual benefit. Although the few girls cannot stop talking when they are together, they would be united when they are working. She also pointed out that this series is expected to finish filming at the end of July.
Kenneth Ma Giving Roxanne Tong a $200,000 Hermès for Her Birthday Is Not the Most Incredible Thing, Really a Worry-Free Life by Also Giving This to Her
Asked whether Kenneth has practiced his Mandarin more, Samantha immediately said, "He has gotten a lot better". Kenneth said, "Viewers really like my Mandarin with a Hong Kong accent". Mentioning that Vincent Wong did a dance that was popular on Douyin on a Mainland variety show earlier, Kenneth said, "I also danced. Went on 《今晚好犀利》 and danced when promoting 'Prism Breaker' earlier; however, I am not good at dancing. Also didn't practice that time...relied on innate ability. (Could you do Vincent's dances?) I can't do that kind. Okay as long as everyone is happy and laughs. It's all a promotion!" When asked if he has received an invitation from the Mainland Variety show "Call Me by Fire", he said, "I have to think about it. I see them, and it is a bit difficult for me; however, the programme team hasn't invited me yet, so I don't know. I have danced on a livestream, but once I dance, it's a bit funny". Samantha, who was next to him, immediately complimented him: "The variety show outcome is good".
Kenneth was laughed at by netizens for his post on Weibo before. Regarding this, he said, "I know what happened. That piece was given to me by the promotional department. I didn't read it and just posted it. Later found out that some things had to be deleted, but the fans liked it and were very happy to see it. The company asked me to delete it, so I deleted it. I don't mind being laughed at by netizens. Every time there are such promotional drafts, I would copy and paste. Next time, the company has to sort it out before sending it to me".
Asked if Kenneth gave his wife, Roxanne Tong, a $200,000 Hermès handbag as a birthday present, Kenneth thought for a moment and said, "It's a secret. I have given her a lot of things. I also belong to her. (Have given her all of your wealth?) Husband and wife, so it cannot be helped. It's a lifetime". Samantha also said, "I can confirm that he is telling the truth".
Kenneth Ma and Wife Roxanne Tong Flying to Malaysia at the End of the Month to Earn Extra Income, Waiting Until Next Year to Chase After a 'Horse Baby'?
Kenneth and his wife, Roxanne, are combining work with dating, accepting a client's invitation to fly to Malysia at the end of June to attend a promotional event and earning extra income as a married couple. This is the two's first time going on a trip for work, frankly saying that [he] wants more of such opportunities. He said excitedly, "Have attended an event as a couple in Hong Kong. This is the first time overseas. Unfortunately, don't have time to stay and have fun. (Taking the opportunity to make a baby?) My last name is 'Ma', but my zodiac sign is Tiger. Babies born in the Year of the Horse and the Year of the Pig are very harmonious with me". From the conversation, Kenneth will be chasing after a Horse baby next year.
Asking Kenneth if wants to be a father like Moses Chan, he laughingly said, "Will learn from him. (Ready to be a father yet?) Not yet. Not yet. Not yet. Leaving it to fate"! Kenneth revealed that he does not need to sing during the Malaysia trip but can consider accepting clients' requests to sing together as a married couple in the future. He also praised his wife for her beautiful singing voice and being cute like a rabbit. Asked if he would make a recommendation himself to bring his wife to appear on a Mainland variety show together, he said, "I would not be so cheap as to make a recommendation myself".
Moses Chan Has a Bottom Line When Shooting Variety Shows
Moses pointed out that there are more and more opportunities to go to Mainland to film series in recent years. He and his wife, Aimee Chan, joined forces to take part in a Mainland variety show earlier. He also wants to protect his privacy. He said, "Previously, there was a programme that was looking for me and my wife, and also wanted to call for my children, but we didn't want to". Have a bottom line set? Moses laughingly said that he thinks that his singing and dancing are so-so, and he does not want to make a fool of himself, and reiterated that he does not want to talk too much about personal matters, such as where [they] kissed for the first time. Teasing him that he was not as good as Kenneth at publicly displaying affection and praising his wife, Moses said, "I am not as unrestrained as he is...lose out to him". The funniest thing was that, when Moses was taking pictures with Kenneth, Moses made a 'bow with [his] hands clasped'.
