Yesterday, artistes Kenneth Ma, Natalie Tong, Ali Lee, Korean star Park Min Young, et al. went to Singapore to attend 'StarHub Night of Stars 2019'. Kenneth and Natalie won 'Best TVB Male Artiste' and 'Best TVB Female Artiste' for the series "Big White Duel", becoming Singapore's 'TV King' and 'TV Queen'. When Natalie received her award, she became teary-eyed. Ali won 'Best TVB Drama Character'.
The Team Is More Important Than the Individual
Kenneth felt extremely happy to have received 'TV King' and said, "Have to thank 'Big''s producer, copy editor, and the entire crew. Don't know if it is because [I] have gotten older, but the more [I] act, the more [I] feel that the power of the entire crew is more important than the power of one individual. The audience liked this series because of the atmosphere that was created from the team, whether it was the props, setting, lighting, or costumes; they were all important. Thus, have to thank every staff member before the screen and behind the scenes, as well as the group of doctors and nurses who assisted us during filming. Without them, our sense of professionalism would not have been as strong. All in all, it was the power of the crew that left the deepest impression on me while filming this series".
Only One Series for This Year
The 'TV Awards Presentation' will be held next year in January. Having first won 'TV King' in Singapore, Kenneth was asked whether it has increased his confidence in winning an award at Hong Kong's awards presentation. He said, "Have to look at these as two separate matters. The judges' standards are different for every awards presentation. Getting one award does not necessarily mean that [you] will get the other one as well. Just letting it be. Have already done [my] best!" As for Natalie winning 'TV Queen', Kenneth expressed, "Happy. Ali also won an award. The theme song of 'Big' that was sung by Fred Cheng also won an award. All in all, whatever award this series receives is good. I am also extremely happy because this is the only series that I took part in this year. Must support it to the end. (How do [you] plan on celebrating?) Treating the series team to dinner. Actually, can eat regardless of what award is received. Can also eat even if I do not receive anything on TVB's awards night. It doesn't really matter. The entire series team's happiness is the most important".
Wants "Big White Duel" to Get 'Best Series'
Regarding "Big" sweeping the awards at 'StarHub', Natalie laughingly said, "Very happy and very touched. This is 'Big''s first award. Have to thank the entire team. Everyone had the same uncertainty while filming because this series was so different from past series. Did not know if the audience would like it or not. Now, we know that the audience really likes it. If there were no producer, copy editor, camerapeople, et al., and all those before the screen and behind the scenes, this series would not exist. However, everyone's mentality while filming this series was to charge through first. There were many things that were unknown. Very touched by the current success!"
Speaking of Kenneth winning an award, Natalie was very happy and said, "Of course, Kenneth has to get an award. When working together, did not think about whether I would have [an award]. Only really wanted him to get an award. Plus, Fred also got a 'Drama OST' award...also very happy". When asked if she thought about continuing to sweep the awards at the 'TV Awards Presentation', Natalie said, "I really hope to get 'Best Series', but have to leave it to the viewers to vote. However, winning awards this time can let those viewers who have already forgotten this series recall a bit of our series and vote ['Big'] for 'Best Series'. (Do not want to win 'TV Queen'?) Leaving this to fate. Everyone is happy if the team wins!"
