Artistes Kenneth Ma, Moses Chan, Shaun Tam, Ruco Chan, Nancy Wu, and Lin Xia Wei, the many TV kings and TV queens, gathered in Macau together with Hubert Wu, JW, Albert Chau, Venus Chi, et al. to attend a concert with the theme of paying tribute to Leslie Cheung the other day. Kenneth, who is a member of Leslie's international fan club, expressed that, back then, he was deeply influenced by his mother into liking Leslie's songs, and even changed her English name to 'Monica'. Ruco expressed that the first cassette that he owned was Leslie's songs; now, he would also choose his idol's [songs] when doing stage performances. It was rare for the four major TV kings to be at the event together, singing together and chatting with Bowie Wu on the stage. Bowie concentrated on forcing a confession out of Kenneth, asking if he had already become a father. Kenneth laughed awkwardly and said, "Not yet. If I am becoming a father, I will tell you in private". There was non-stop laughter in the audience.

Hubert also sang and even shared his singing experience with Moses and Kenneth backstage. Asking how the two seniors' singing skills were, he immediately said sweetly, "They just have to stand still on stage, and the audience is already very satisfied. Opening their mouths is really a bonus!"

Lin Xia Wei Asks for Time Off for the Stage Performance

Regarding Bowie explicitly urging [him] to have a baby, Kenneth laughingly said in an interview with this newspaper [today], "He was just hyping up the atmosphere...finding something to talk about and urging me and such. Was just joking!" Regarding the few TV kings singing on the same stage, he frankly said that he was not nervous: "Just felt a bit of pressure when singing Leslie's songs. Scared of wrecking the song by singing it. Don't know why but feel that only he can sing the flavour of his songs; other people singing it also does sound as good as him. However, I also have over ten years of experience of doing stage performances on stage and am also not a formal singer. If not sung too overboard, believe that the audience will accept it". [He] also revealed that he recently has to go up north to guest-star in the new TVB series "The Queen of Castle".

Xia Wei, who is also working on a series, also specially asked for time off from the Mainland series crew for the show. She said, "This combination for the concert is very strong; it's like a school carnival because all the combinations are also acquaintances. It feels very safe. Actually don't have many opportunities to collaborate with Nancy in acting. Also very happy to be able to perform at the same event this time".

TV king Kenneth Ma attended an event to promote Hong Kong brands, mentioning his wife, Roxanne Tong, on stage three times, saying that, due to her influence, he has fallen in love with online shopping. His wife prefers to buy clothes and accessories online. [He] also said that, if [he] is livestream selling skin care products, would first ask [his] wife to try them out. Speaking of always talking about his wife, he continued to talk about his beloved wife, saying, "I didn't have this habit before; however, due to her influence, found online shopping to be very convenient. Choose something first and then go to the physical retail store to look at it. It saves a lot of time. I am not a rich third generation. Don't have that much time to go shopping because [I] have to work, but don't have to buy baby things for the time being".

He likes to order traditional furnishings online the most, and considers himself to be traditional and old-fashioned: "I would buy those Fu Lu Shous, but they are the trendy cartoon versions. (Have you bought the Buddha with children?) My mom has it at her house. Don't mind friends giving it as a gift. Would not find it old-fashioned. Think that Chinese traditions have to be preserved, such as giving out red pockets during the New Year".

Regarding being praised for looking particularly handsome in a powder blue suit, he said that it is to the credit of a fashion designer friend, and also laughed at himself for often having mishaps with his previous looks: "I know nothing about fashion". At the same time, his wife would also dress him up, and praised his wife again for being very incredible, shooting online ads at home by herself. He said, "In the past, she would ask her manager to help with filming videos, but she can also do it by herself now. Has added a lot of pretty equipment. Does the lighting, films, edits the videos, and adds the subtitles herself. (Your wife also earns the advertising fees alone?) Yes. She can help me shoot ads and can also provide for me, but I am a traditional man...also give household expenses. She always says that my money is her money, and her money is her own money". In addition, although he has a guest role in the new TVB new series "The Queen of Castle", he will later return to Mainland with Edwin Siu to rush work.

Sammi Cheng Clarifies That the Guest List Circulating Online Is 'Fake', Raymond Lam Receives a Giant Barbecued Pork Rice and Announces Holding a Hong Kong Coliseum Show Next Year

TVBE Clip (072424)

Sammi Cheng held the ninth night of her Hong Kong Coliseum show last night; guest performer Raymond Lam appeared and shocked the audience, holding hands and singing 《愛在記憶中找你》 together. When introducing the guest, Sammi said, "The bonus tonight is awesome. I'm scared that you'll be so happy. As for this guest, I have grown up watching his TVB series. This guest has been on fire recently...so hot! In short, I have grown up watching his acting projects! Okay. [Let's] get to the song first". The prelude of the song started, and the entire audience screamed immediately. Sammi gasped in surprise, "Recognized it that quickly? It was only two seconds. That incredible?!"

Raymond rose from the middle of the stage, and sang 《愛在記憶中找你》 together while holding hands. During this period, Raymond became a warm guy, as he used a handkerchief to wipe away the bubbles on Sammi's head. After singing, Sammi thanked Raymond for taking time out of his busy schedule to be the guest performer. He revealed that he was so excited that he injured his hand at home before leaving for the Coliseum. He asked Sammi, "The guest list that is circulating online...how come today is 'to be determined'? (Of course it's not. It's fake!) I also saw that the list had 「龍捲風」, which is Louis Koo. In fact, you would also invite him for many of your concerts.... (It's fake. He said that he's busy.) Aiya...if [I] had known earlier, would have sung 《今期流行》 with you. You can also dance!" He also did a few classic dance moves while talking. The entire audience burst into laughter.

Then Sammi expressed that she has to give Raymond a gift, which was a big bowl of barbecued pork rice. Upon seeing this, Raymond laughingly said, "Thank you. Such a 'big' barbecued pork!" Sammi said, "Such a big bowl of rice, but just one piece of barbecued pork. Barbecued pork is expensive now! Do [you] like it? Is it very meaningful?" In the movie "Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In", Raymond started the story of Kowloon Walled City because of a bowl of barbecued pork. He held up the barbecued pork rice and greeted the audience, saying, "Hello, everyone. I am 'Chan Lok Kwan'!" The entire audience cheered. Sammi said seriously, "Raymond's performing arts career in this industry also has blood and tears. Eating this bowl of barbecued pork also really has flavour in the heart!" Unexpectedly, Raymond said, "Thanks. Actually, I also grew up watching your movies!" Sammi yelled out 'wa' and laughingly returned backstage.

Afterward, Raymond was alone on the stage and said, "The last time I sang at the Coliseum was also a few years ago. Actually, I also have a chance of returning to the Coliseum next year. If it is nearer, then there will also be a show in Macau in September. Hope that everyone will do [me] the honour then! Sammi's stage is so pretty tonight. I really like it, especially being able to in close contact with the audience". Then he shook hands with the audience while singing 《愛不疚》.

Maggie Shiu Returning to TVB to Be Funny and Partnering Eddie Kwan to Be Upper-Class People, Kelly Cheung Wants to Learn from Her

CREDIT IF REPOSTED

Maggie Shiu will return to TVB at the end of this month to film the new comedy "Undercover Gals". The cast also includes Eddie Kwan; the two are playing a prominent married couple. Because they are playing upper-class people, Maggie will have a noble appearance. Other actors include Kelly Cheung, Jeannie Chan, Yuki Law, Mark Ma, et al.

This time, the new series is an investigative comedy. In the series, Maggie and Eddie have a daughter played by Yumi Chung. Yumi is being herself in the series, as she likes to sing and dance and wants to join a girl group. In 1987, Eddie already collaborated with Maggie in the ancient series "The Conspiracy", and they also had many collaborations afterward. He said in an exclusive interview with on.cc [today], "There are many of them. We also collaborated in the stage play 'I Have a Date with Spring' in Shanghai, and also went to Taiwan to shoot a serial drama produced by Stanley Fung. Everyone is also very happy about her coming back this time. We are also good friends. We have already had a costume fitting. We are very harmonious and would discuss [with one another]. Looking forward to having sparks".

Jeannie, Kelly, and Yuki create a lot of laughs while investigating a drug case. Speaking of working with Maggie, Jeannie said in an interview, "Extremely happy. I really like watching her acting projects. However, although it is a comedy this time, the producer told me that I am not responsible for being funny; rather, have to have a sturdy side. It's very unfortunate. Have not collaborated with many of the actors this time, so it feels very fresh". Kelly plays a psychologist in the series. She said, "The role this time is very different from the usual me. Have filmed some lighthearted series before; the atmosphere was particularly happy during the filming. It is the first time collaborating with the actors in the series, especially Maggie. Also saw her many years ago. Hope to be able to have more scenes with her this time and take advantage of the opportunity to learn from [her]".

As for Mark, who won 'Most Improved Male Artiste' at the beginning of the year, when asked about being promoted by the company and having many leading roles, he said, "Will seize the opportunity. Also confident in myself. The producer is great. Found me to be a 'bad spirit' last time and changed me as a person". He, who is playing an undercover agent in the series this time, has a great sense of justice. On the surface, he is a playboy, but is very suppressed on the inside. Mark said, "In the series, I am said to be good at fighting and also have to ride a motorcycle. Because the character requires having to train to become muscular, have been going to the gym to build [my] muscles recently. I exercise regularly...have a method to get muscular quickly, but also very worn out from training every day".

Golden producer Lau Ka Ho held a 50th anniversary banquet in Tsuen Wan [last] night. Apart from his wife, Mui Siu Ching, and TVB executives Virginia Lok and Ho Lai Chuen, TVB artistes also attended to congratulate him, including TV kings and queen Kenneth Ma, Ruco Chan, and Lin Xia Wei, et al.

Lin Xia Wei expressed that she made a special trip back to Hong Kong from Mainland. She has recently been busy filming the new series 《大生意人》 in Hengdian; it is very challenging having to film in 40-degree weather in ancient costumes. She said, "A lot of people also reminded me about taking precautions against heat stroke, so I also brought medicine and ice packs".

Lin Xia Wei Is Not Nosy About Chen Xiao's Rumoured Change in Marital Status

Lin Xia Wei revealed that her opponent, Chen Xiao, in the series is a former classmate at the Central Academy of Drama. They have not had a get-together for a long time since they graduated in 2009. Collaborating with a good friend is hard to come by, so they did make plans to have dinner together before starting work. Asked if she was concerned about Chen Xiao's situation, as he is rumoured to have a change in his marital status, she said, "We also just talk about the series when we have dinner. As a good friend, would not particularly ask about other things. (Afraid of him being unhappy?) He is not unhappy".

Kenneth Ma Promises His Wife to Walk Hand in Hand in the Park

Kenneth laughingly said that he has to learn from Producer Lau Ka Ho because he and Mui Siu Ching are a model couple; not only did they have successful careers and a happy marriage, but they are also good at raising their son. Their son has become a legal professional and also previously served as a consultant for the series "Speakers of Law". Kenneth hopes that he and his wife, Roxanne Tong, will still keep being affectionate decades later: "I sometimes tell my wife that I think that it is a very romantic thing for two people to walk hand in hand in the park when they get older. I have made a promise to her: in the future, regardless of how old we are, also have to walk hand in hand in the park. However, the weather is hot recently, so we are walking hand in hand at the mall first".

Ruco Chan is very happy to be able to attend Lau Ka Ho's retirement party. He recalled that, in the blink of an eye, they had collaborated for over ten years, from "The Mysteries of Love" to the "Sinister Beings" series. He also said that, during his childhood, he grew up with many of his classic works: "'Final Combat' and 'The Justice of Life' are very incredible. Louise Lee suffered from schizophrenia in 'The Key Man'; I got a bit scared watching it when I was younger". It was suggested that Lau Ka Ho come back from his vacation to shoot "Sinister Beings 3". Ruco laughingly said the he has an open attitude: "I have not rushed him. If he calls for support, I will definitely be there". He mentioned that he is currently busy filming "The Queen of Castle" in Foshan. Recently, he took the opportunity to take his daughter, Quinta, to Mainland during her summer vacation so that they could spend some family time together.

Lau Ka Ho Has Worked Hard in the TV Industry for 50 Years and Has Experienced a Magical Journey

Lau Ka Ho described his 50 years of hard work in the TV industry as having experienced a magical journey. He was fortunate enough to work with many god-level actors, creating many series that are household names, which was very rewarding. Asked if he would be unable to resist the tempation to make a comeback, he said, "Before I retired, there were already people asking me to film 'Sinister Beings 3'. Eric Tsang asked me to come back and film after taking a break. I feel that [you should] never say never. My wife, Mui Siu Ching, had taken a four-year break and was immediately rejuvenated. There's a great difference in the condition between being stressed to being stress-free. I have been doing this for 50 years. Really firm about wanting to take a long vacation, which may last up to two years. Whether there would be a comeback will be decided afterward".

"No Room for Crime" Sub Song 2 (Full Version)


"Empty" - Jinny Ng

空白 《反黑英雄》 插曲 - 吳若希

作曲/填詞/編曲/監製: 江暉

一次一次失去我的僅有勇氣吧
一次一次感到流淚之時的孤寡
我沒法通往未來 困在這段空白
無奈背著了一切渴望 誰捨得放下

*散聚有時 愛恨有時
發夢到此世界來到盡處
繼續向前 故事已中斷 #沉淪吧 原地轉
約定太遙遠 再沒法盤算
遍尋半生已失去方寸
快樂似傳說 結局太幽怨 不需要奉勸#*

一次一次嘲笑我的真摯太幼稚
一次一次失去仍在堅持多奢侈
靠近了總會猶豫 告別卻甚輕易
誰又會在意 刻骨的心事 生死有時

Repeat *

你在眼前 卻沒發言
顧慮太多對錯難以盡說
抉擇太遲 美夢己中斷
