TVB Clip
TVB is releasing the telemovie "Dream in Heng Qin and Macau" after 20 years; it will be broacasting on TVB Jade tomorrow at 8:30pm.
Lin Xia Wei, who plays the 'lonely middle-aged woman' 'Si Si' in "Dream", and 'Chow Wing San', played by Ruco Chan, are colleagues and a bickering pair. Although they fight to the death in business matters, 'Wing San', who is a warm guy, extremely cares about 'Si Si' in private, even helping 'Si Si' expose an 'online dating scam'. Kenneth Ma is responsibe for playing the online AI scammer 「阿King」. Kenneth, who plays two characters this time, will also play the successful person 'Tung Cheuk Yin'. 'Tung Cheuk Yin' and 「阿King」 even have an inexplicable and mysterious connection....
Although Kenneth has rarely filmed comedies in recent years, as long as it involves comedy, he has an outstanding performance! This time, Kenneth's comedic skills have exploded once again, being 'Timothy Cheng', a 'domineering CEO', and a 'Korean drama-style warm guy' at the same time, giving it his all to cajole Xia Wei.
Regarding his role, Kenneth admitted that it was extremely fun and laughingly said that he extremely enjoys filming comedies: "Also came up with the role's interpretation with the producer because we felt that online scammers should often use their voice to deceive people first, so [we] thought of the music lover Timothy Cheng as the prototype. Thus, when I said the dialogue, would also be like a radio DJ...like sweet-talking and being gentle. Was also quite interesting and quite fun. I have also not acted out things with comedic feeling for a long time. Although I am not great at acting, actaully quite enjoy doing comedy. Hope that the viewers will watch the outcome happily". Apart from the 'presentation' (the voice and body language), the 'love phrases' of Kenneth's character are also quite corny and funny, including "No matter where you are, my heart also has you" (「無論你喺邊，我個心都係有你」), "Loving someone is having to be irrational" (「愛一個人，就係要冇理智」), and the era-defining "Do not care about eternity...only care about what was one had" (「不在乎天長地久，只在乎曾經擁有」), which cajoled Xia Wei to the point of fainting.
When asked whether Kenneth is also a master at cajoling his wife in real life, Kenneth threw out a 'simple theory of loving the wife': "Usually, I am not really good at cajoling girls, but I think that the most important thing is to be sincere. As long as you are really good to that person, I believe that she would feel it. For example, as a husband, if [you] do not have to work, would accompany the wife more. Wherever the wife has to go, you would drive her there. Just accompanying her to do things in [our] daily lives and spending as much time as possible with the wife. I always feel that, as long as the husband and wife are accompanying one another, would be happy. Would be very happy even if [they] do very simple things". Regarding this, Producer Lam Hang added, "Beause the scenes where the swindler Kenneth appears are all imagined by Xia Wei. Well, Xia Wei's character really likes watching Korean dramas, so put some elements of Korean dramas into it".
