Cast Change for Ron Ng's New Series: Netizens Complain

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

In TVB's Sales Presentation, it featured "Back to the Three Kingdoms" with Ron Ng, Steven Ma, and Fala Chen, which is scheduled to film next year. However, there are reports indicating that Raymond Lam and Tavia Yeung will be starring instead, becoming the sequel of "The Mysteries of Love". This has caused many netizens to complain on TVB's website, as they believe that this is unfair to Ron.

Reporters called Ron yesterday, and he admitted that he heard about the 'cast change': "The cast that films the promotional clip does not necessarily take part! When 'Back' starts filming, I have to film 'Forensic Heroes III", so it basically does not fit into my schedule! (Disappointed?) No! The story of 'Forensic' is also good. I will play a cop, so I am also anticipating it!"

Personal Note: Based on this article, Ron has not taken on "Back" yet. Don't know if TVB will rearrange his schedule such that he'll have to film both at the same time. "Forensic" will film until April, and since "Back" starts filming at the beginning of March, he could end up having to overlap for a month.

"Blissful Rhythm" - Stephanie Ho

幸福節奏 《居家兵團》 主題曲 - 何雁詩

作曲: 葉肇中
填詞: 陳詩慧

細聽幸福節奏　就算偶然吵架沒有隔夜仇　像塵埃給輕輕抹走
愛予人的富有　父母愛極深厚　還有溫馨的一對手

由新可變舊　餐枱破舊會搬走
惟有情共愛　是永恆在駐守
擋風也讓我避雨　在我失意時　為我吃苦也會樂意
從來在意　絕對也真摯　無止境的愛世上誰願意

Ha Yu: "It's really heavy! Can you really do it?!"

Narrator: "Many lines of development. Well-rounded home service".

Liza Wang: "Well, housewives are not equivalent to stupidity. In terms of practical intelligence, there are many who are college-educated".

Ha Yu: "Thought that it would help the son, but may actually end up harming him".

Bernice Liu: "Someone in the company has already filed for bankruptcy!"

Liza Wang: "Bankruptcy?! What happened?!"

Wong He Gives Linda Chung Aroma Diffuser

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

Because of "Twilight Investigation", Wong He and Linda Chung became good friends. Although Linda has to film her series, and thus has been unable to make money with He as a couple partnership, He specifically returned to TVB City to give Linda an aroma diffuser as a Christmas present. Linda, who has been throwing up from a stomach flu, was stunned; however, after receiving her present, she immediately gave him a hug. She said, "When I had insomnia, I was planning on getting this--never thought that He and I would think the same. He is really attentive; he is my most compatible partner!" When asked what she would getting He, He immediately interrupted, "Free your schedule. Mainland is asking for us to do some stage performances!" With excitement, Linda said that she will have time in the beginning of January, laughingly requesting to 'reconcile' with He.

Personal Note: Nice to see that He and Linda have become friends, and that their couple partnership is quite well-received! Linda already praised He numerous times during the promos of "The Gem of Life". Anyway, very sweet of him to get her such a thoughtful gift. :)

Heard that the first and second cycles of "Rooms to Let" will air on Astro, so no TVB series should be warehoused.

愛情轉駁 《誘情轉駁》 主題曲 - 陳法拉

作曲: 鄧智偉/梁弋文
填詞: 余皓文
編曲: 葉肇中
監製: 鄧智偉

*風輕吹紅裙調情　手機響鈴來留名
在沿路上　遇見到　動情在背影
為我你心跳人醉倒　感覺猶像浮游夢境國度　將你神暈兼癲倒
轉駁感情可應該　充滿猜疑緣何來
但還是在　在等待　待情幻化開
若你已將我留腦海　把這唯美凝住萬分按捺　可以和我忽然愛

Repeat *

Love and sensation beckoning to me darling
Such a temptation following with me baby

Liza Wang: "Seeing her get close to Ah Jing is unpleasing to the eyes!"

Kevin Cheng: "As long as I'm holding onto you, I'm not letting go".

Liza Wang: "You're not even finished school, so you're not qualified to make your own decisions!"

Daniel Chau: "I won't get into university anyway".

Liza Wang: "If a man wants to trick you into bed, obviously he would say he has no feelings for his wife!"

Narrator: "In order to complement family growth, there needs to be more understanding".

Ha Yu: "There are times when you show excessive care, which makes them feel as though they're being controlled".

Kevin Cheng: "At home, she accommodates everyone. Outside, she has to be the ugly person, but she just does it for us".

"Show Me the Happy" Opening Theme Video

"Show Me the Happy" - Bernice Liu & Various Artistes

依家有喜 《依家有喜》 主題曲 - 廖碧兒/群星

同心　是種福氣
全家　有乜禁忌
有理冇理
衝突之後　隔夜沒仇悲
情真　做乜鬼戲
隨心　說天說地
有我撐你　甘或苦味
快樂在同享滋味
人生　太多好戲
人間　太多勝地
到處太美　天下之大
也未及回家一起

Personal Note: The video is quite blurry, but the sound is quite clear. Also, I can only hear Bernice's voice in the song.

"Half of a Lip" - Louis Yuen

半邊咀 - 鄧大巧

臘肉和臘鴨　實在如垃圾
食二頭大鮑　先至有面
花膠常遇見　立誓唔食蜆
剩食松露菌　超貴官燕

極有錢好驚要怕食啲cheap嘢　只因此半邊咀一咬住便會腫
醫生睇症知我病　一張咀半邊脹還勁過胸

萬勿歧視我　患病唔係錯
舊患如臘腸　咀會噴火
日夜搽藥膏　都冇好過

王: 眉頭在皺著全為某些怪事
合: 憑食腦探索哪個可疑
黃: 無謂浪費力逃避我的注視
合: 其實答案我也會知
李: 做乜都應該要TRY多幾次
合: 人愈係HEA似一張廢的紙

黃: 憑食腦這兩字　（李: 破案也太易）
合: 始終一天得志

王: 人人亦也是懷著某種秘技
合: 憑食腦破案有幾出奇
黃: 尤其是記住凡事要花心機
合: 誰亦無有怕要去比
李: 別O嘴我擅長玩捉心理
合: 情形就似心虛總怕屈機
從來未怕你要是潛水捉硬你　我曉得去飛
無論係各樣名字各種姓氏　憑食腦這兩字
破案也太易　始終一天得志

Personal Note: This full version is quite short! It sounds as though Raymond and Johnson's voices were added in at a later time. I like the song, but it sounds very similar to the theme song of "OL Supreme". :)

"Chok" Look

Wayne Lai, Moses Chan, Raymond Lam, Steven Ma, and Kenneth Ma's "chok" look at TV Awards Presentation 2010 during the 'My Favourite TV Male Character' top five segment.

Definition of "chok":

"Chok" is derived from the English word "choke". It is used to describe one's exaggerated behaviour, attitude or voice such that it makes people feel asphyxiated.

Personal Note: Raymond and Moses looked the most "chok". Ha ha.... However, Ma Ming's was the most funny! :P

Wong He on "The Green Room"

"Afraid to Find You at Your House" - Wong Cho Lam

Wong Cho Lam's parody of Raymond Lam's "Love Searching for You in Memory". The lyrics are about a couple living far away from one another. Hilarious!

怕去屋企找你 - 林窿

我要你　今晚黑　去我屋企
你嗌遠　聽朝早　怕要早起
你住~香馬灣　我住~火炭
喂　我其實無say

你說過　筲箕灣　近你屋企
我卻說　尖沙咀　至有Neway
買定晒西鐵飛　遠亦要搵你
走一轉　為陪伴你　我就要死

*如果搬近就你　無奈對住你
成日要就你D期
媽媽都怨恨你　同事責備你
其實我亦有屋企
期望你去下油麻地
但我諗真都係晒氣
我們是有一些距離

送過你　返屋企　似搭飛機
我決意　哩一哩
試下cosplay
你勁似張栢芝　我亦唔鍾意
Honey呀　我期望你會住近D

Repeat *

我其實有D想盅你

"Change Eyes Phone" - Johnson Lee

Johnson Lee's parody of Jay Chou's "Tornado". The lyrics are about the iPhone having too many versions, and not having enough money to buy them. So funny!

換Eyes Phone - Phone Chow

愛上了Eyes Phone　買完它就走
沒有錢交租　我都要買一部
買了新Eyes Phone　我口袋淘空
常常出新型號　我被它拖著走

我的銀行已沒有錢
陷入了破產邊緣了　Baby~~
我很久沒有吃過鮑魚　Wu~~~~~

*Eyes Phone變得太快　就像龍捲風
不能再換我已沒有錢買
我不能再換　我不能再換
我不　我不　我不能

Eyes Phone變得太快　就像龍捲風
不能再換我已沒有錢買
我不能再換　我不能再換
我不　我不　我不再換手機

Eyes Phone 1　它已經離開我
Eyes Phone 2　它已經離開我
Eyes Phone 3　它已經離開我
Eyes Phone 4　它已經離開我*

我沒有朋友肯借錢
陷入了饑荒邊緣了　Baby~~
我餓得快要入去醫院　Wu~~~~~

Related post: TV Awards Presentation 2010 Nominations

Personal Note: The awards are expected, but can't believe that TVB actually gave Wayne this award consecutively. There are speculations about Bowie no longer being a TVB-managed artiste, so it seems likely that TVB is pushing Wayne to take over Bowie's position. Wayne mentioned recently that he is in talks about signing with TVB, so he has either already signed with TVB or TVB is persuading him to sign with them.

Raymond received the same awards that he did two years ago. The character Kingsley is a popular character, but there is nothing special about it.

Can't believe that TVB gave Fala 'Supporting' again, especially for this particular performance! Thought executives would actually look at the acting. The other four nominees would have definitely been more deserving! Guess that Fala is not big enough to win 'Female Character'....

In Raymond Wong's acceptance speech, he announced that his wife is pregnant. Congratulations to the both of them!

The 'Best Series' award has been demoted to a consolation prize! Surprised that "A Fistful of Stances" and "When Lanes Merge" didn't make top five, but happy that "A Chip Off the Old Block" did.

Louise is the youngest recipient of the 'Lifetime Achievement' award. Would have expected TVB to award it to either Lee Heung Kam or Lau Siu Ming....

"Running Through Red and Green Lights" - Louis Yuen

Louis Yuen's parody of Stephanie Cheng's "Red and Green Lights". The lyrics are about losing points when violating traffic rules.

衝紅綠燈 - 爛瞓融

從小最驚太早要起身
唔夠瞓望見紅綠燈
又要等　邊揸車邊放蚊
見塞車我就瞓　我這揸車的女人

如果太趕我點會留心
成日遇薄lock我真太不幸
係冇心　啱啱幾時轉燈
個差佬叫住我　我今次實在頭痕

*明明十分　轉眼變成零分
衝燈必須扣分　點解有紅綠燈
係我衰　揸車都敢再恰眼瞓
來又往　最黑仔我又笨過人

明明十分　轉眼變成零分
停牌唔易過　每日打的我都好抆
後悔緊　差佬捉到我好無能*
無辦法　我必須努力地更新　戒爛瞓

Repeat *

唔掂喇　我即刻決定就熄燈　瞓鑊甘

Eliza Sam Makes Canada Proud

Vancouverite Eliza Sam has won “Miss Chinese International Pageant 2010” that took place in Tianjing, China last week.

A kind heart pumped with determination, Eliza always strives to develop her potentials to the fullest. From a young lady who could only speak a word or two in Chinese, she has mastered the language well just within one year. Eliza spent the past twelve months practicing her talents and Cantonese in preparation for the international competition. As an advocate for charities, she has been actively involved in a variety of fund-raising events for the past year including Stem Cell Drive organized by One Match, Canadian Cancer Society daffodil sales and SUCCESS Charity Golf Tournament, just to name a few. She was also named the “Ambassador of Hope” by Canadian Cancer Society earlier this year and has been a spokesperson for the Society on a number of occasions with a mission to help
provide better services for cancer patients.

President of Fairchild Media Group Mr. Joe Chan and Co-Chair of “Miss Chinese Vancouver Pageant Gala Dinner” Dr. Tony Yue from Canadian Cancer Society presented a large bouquet of flowers and gifts to Eliza to congratulate her on her tremendous success last week. Eliza expressed her heartfelt appreciation for the support from friends and family in Vancouver and shared with the guests her experience in the past few weeks in Asia. She also wished that the contestants of Miss Chinese Vancouver Pageant 2010 will be able to showcase the best of themselves in the Pageant on December 8, 2010 at The Vancouver Convention Centre.

Miss Chinese Vancouver Pageant has been an annual signature event organized by Fairchild Television for the past 16 years taking place at Vancouver Convention Centre. The Final of the Pageant is donated to Canadian Cancer Society as a highlight entertainment for its fund-raising gala dinner.

TVB Sales Presentation 2011

"Back to the Three Kingdoms"

Supposedly, Steven will be filming three grand ancient series next year, and this is said to be one of them.

"The King of the Phoenixes"

This clip was quite poorly edited. Would have liked to see other Myolie scenes rather than just of her yelling.

"The Gods.com"

This series will film in March, and it will be produced by Kwan Wing Chung. Toby Leung and Aimee Chan are also said to take part, while Leanne Li and Lukian Wang may guest-star.

"Psychological Warfare"

The seems to be quite interesting. Hope it will not disappoint. Wish that Kenny had been shown more....

"Relic of an Emissary"

Michael and Kate's love scene quite resembles the one that they had in the Sales clip of "Monk Wu Jie" from last year.

"Mahjong Flying Southeast"

Raymond and Ruco said in their Weibos that this series has a high chance of filming. Hopefully, Ma Ming will still be in it.

"Only You"

Kevin Cheng said that this series will air in February, which makes sense because it would coincide with Valentine's Day.

"The Truth"

It makes sense that the barristers are the main leads in here. Looking forward to the 'Iron Triangle'! It is quite obvious that Ma Ming was filming "Female Fist" when he did this clip because he doesn't look like this in "The Truth".

"Yes Sir, No Sir"

Ha ha.... Moses and his white pants! Too bad there were no scenes of Ron and Tavia together....

"The Great Eunuch"

This clip was actually done better than expected, but still don't know whether this will be filmed or not. I can only see Chik producing a series like this; if so, then doubt that this cast will be used. Think that they messed up because Bosco referred to himself in the first person....

"Colourful World of Sister Fa"

Sigh! Raymond and his 'chok' look.... No wonder Raymond said that his character will not be likable.

"The Boxing King"

This series will film in March, and it will be produced by Marco Law. I guess this is his male version of "Female Fist"....

"Counter Terrorism Response Unit"

This clip was actually not included in the broadcast version of the Sales Presentation. Anyway, if this series does film, hope that either Alex Fong or Wong He takes part, as they are the most convincing when it comes to members of Disciplined Services.

Variety Programme: "Sleepover with the Stars"

Ma Ming is so cute! Ma Ming is taller than the door, as he had to bend down to walk in. Ha ha.... Loved how he pushed the boy out of the way to play the Wii! Ha ha.... If they actually film this, wonder if Ma Ming will be one of stars.... :)

Personal Note: Like how there was nothing to translate, as the clip just showed mysterious things happening because of a cell phone, which is what the series is about.

Also, there are recent rumours saying that TVB will film two grand ancient productions, and that Steven will take part. Wonder if TVB will really film "Back to the Three Kingdoms"....

"Twilight Investigation" Promotional Clip 5

Narrator: "A young model investigates cases, and transforms into a weird PI!"

Linda Chung: "He thought that, by cleaning the scene, he could deceive me. I found some evidence".

Wong He: "Don't be so nonsensical!"

Linda Chung: "Raymond Lam! Really want to buy it!"

Wong He: "You're silly and stupid, and all messed up. Drunk driving, and throwing rocks at people!"

Wong He: "Do you even know what 'gwing' means?"

Linda Chung: "This is the 'gwing' expression".

Narrator: "'Twilight Investigation'. Monday @ 8:30pm".

Personal Note: Love 囧! Ha ha.... :D

Once again, here is the meaning of 囧 (gwing):
囧 is a facial expression used to describe one's mood. It can be helpless, shocked, stunned, frustrated, depressed, strange, speechless, etc.

Narrator: "A trivial matter becomes a surprise. 'Show Me the Happy'. Monday @ 8:00pm".

Personal Note: The rooftop and forest scenery remind me of the three-second promo clips in "The Four". :P Love Benz and Paul's character names in here. Ha ha.... The last time they worked together was "Life Made Simple". Happy to see them collaborate again. :D

"Listen to Ma" - Wong Cho Lam & "Garbage" - Louis Yuen

Wong Cho Lam's parody of A-Mei Chang's "Listen to the Ocean". It is so funny and sad at the same time because, with the emergence of different online social networks, people tend to have less face-to-face contact. The lyrics really reflect parents' perspective on the current society.

聽媽 - 張呀妹

(國) 請你fax給我　今天你想要吃什麼
請你e-mail我　今夜你心情如何
Facebook已不能說　沒有人add我
而現在中國　所有的人　都在微博

請你告訴我　今夜 (粵) 點解你會懵咗
上網上得多　行過　乖仔你都冇望我
等我亦上埋線　網上期望可以一見
為何又係我online先　(國) 才可以靠近

聽　媽媽的聲音　(粵) 仲要玩web cam　都三四點　網友大過天
仔女忽略我　(國) 至少我很冷靜
(粵) 望吓媽咪　嗌吓媽咪　呆咗咁算點

(國) 聽　媽媽的聲音　(粵) 仲要玩online game　玩到癲　(國) 你還不清醒
SMS留過　就當最後約定
說你在冷落我的時候　被關注的心情

Louis Yuen's parody of Candy Lo's "Garbage". The lyrics are about plastic surgery. Loved how Louis sang like Candy.

垃圾 - 盧搞音

如果我是個醜女子　就會　太蝕
如果我願去抽吓脂　為你　瘦吓身
被你遺棄　話我面嚡　話我謝晒　像個老太
就要盡快　隆吓胸　變大晒

嫌我像個垃圾　隆隆胸可以嗎
人人都整過啦　個下巴
唯有用五萬八　由頭整過未怕
南韓走轉掂啦　錢再花

被世界遺棄　不可怕　整得怪有時還可怕
沒法再勁削腮骨啦　整多次　就冇咗腮骨啦
不需要　完美得可怕
個下巴　如何招架　庸醫真可怕

舊嘅我沒有　身曲線　豐胸了有時還討厭
遇上佢任意的興建　加多了　令我終於黐線
醫生說　做了幾十年
有意外　完全罕見　而診金可免

邊一塊　肉冇得整呀
我現在　重頭整吓　什麼都不怕

Humans are naturally kind; however, for fame and fortune, they are willing to be controlled by their inner demons.

"Twinz" - Johnson Lee

Johnson Lee's parody of William Chan's "Taxi".

Twinz - 的士陳

成棚麻甩佬　齊齊來起舞
無聊嚟多鋪

但遇著Twinz　即刻吹BB
好女子　仆親都冇事

結過婚　我最冧
我有樣　佢有金
襯到爆　人都走晒音
周身都會痕

*I love you Twinz
日夜共你玩腳趾
笑我低B
My angel baby
日日令我很無面
無晒face (叫佢慳啲)

Sa Sa係honey　Sa Sa係得意
Sa Sa係cutie　慳啲啦baby

日日係咁谷　日日放三篤
猛咁郁　要吸引她　操fit拜拜肉

Sa姐啲新聞我愛慕
Call班狗仔去佢度
人人當我契細佬

佢餵貓　我餵狗
佢去街　我劈酒
醉到爆　埋單喺佢手
慳返三兩嚿

Repeat (*)

I love you Twinz
日夜共你揸筷子
要夾雞子
若沒有新意
第日共你生個B
要似Mani
索過Hungry
(你就想呀)

"Taxi" - William Chan

Personal Note: So funny! Loved the lyrics because they are so true! Also, Johnson sang way better than "Taxi Chan"!

Johnson should be careful because you never know if another 'flashlight' incident will happen! If anything happens to Johnson, we will know who did it! Ha ha! :P

真假功夫我最叻

Natalis Chan, Sin Ho Ying, Turbo Law, Oscar Leung, Vivi Lee, Oscar Li, William Chak, King Kong, Carlo Ng & Vincent Wong

Enjoyed this martial arts segment a lot! Loved how they showcased each artiste in their own specialty. Derek Kwok was originally supposed to lead the group, but he had to film "Show Me the Happy".

Loved how Ma Ming used the golden pig prop to cover his face at the end of the dance. :D

Lee Heung Kam was the best 'rapper'! Wayne was off-beat, while Ka Nin forgot his line. Don't understand why Linda was in here since she didn't even say a line.

視帝鬥戲劇場

Moses Chan, Carlo Ng, Wayne Lai & King Kong

King Kong's Seung Joi Sam stole the show from Wayne and Moses in this part! Ha ha.... :D

I don't have all of the clips, but I will update this post if I find them.

Love Benz! :D

hyn5 Publicly Shows Affection for Ron Ng

Ron Ng has been recently rumoured with Mainland artiste Viann Zhang. In the Next Magazine article, they published a Weibo update that I posted of Ron. Next titled the picture as her "showing public affection" for Ron, but it was actually me! Ha ha! Next said that she publicly praised him for being handsome, and accompanied it with a heart; however, I was the one who had that in my update! In her update, she only had a clapping symbol, and said that he was a cool, pretty boy.

hyn5: "Ron Ng is really too handsome! [handsome] [heart]"

Caption: "The two of them frequently pay attention to each other on Weibo. Previously, he injured his hand, and she was immediately worried and asked how he was doing. Last week, after she saw Ron Ng, she flew to Beijing for work. She, yearning for love, publicly praised Ron as being handsome, and accompanied it with a heart--very sappy".

Thanks to Mare for notifying me that I was mentioned in Next Magazine. Ha ha....
