Tavia Yeung and Yoyo Chen Collaborate Again After Nine Years
The anniversary series "War of Thorns", featuring two big TV queens and three big TV kings, Tavia Yeung, Moses Chan, Lin Xia Wei, Kenneth Ma, and Ruco Chan, premiered online the other day (the 6th), sparking buzz and attention in the entire city. Yesterday, this series' executive producer, Chung Shu Kai, led the actors to Zhongshan for a promotional fan meeting, attracting the support of a large group of fans, with over 3000 onlookiers packing all five levels of the shopping mall. In addition to the two TV queens and the three TV kings, Elaine Yiu, Kelly Fu, Yoyo Chen, Momo Wu, and Telford Wong were also in attendance.
Tavia and Yoyo were interviewed together; they are good sisters on and offscreen. Their last collaboration was "Another Era", collaborating again after nine years. Tavia expressed that it felt like a get-together between old friends and good sisters; there was a strong chemistry and understanding. They are both Virgos, with their birthdays being just three days apart. "Yoyo would directly say what's on her mind. I understand exactly what she's thinking...would talk about anything". Yoyo expressed that the producer likely does not know that they are close; if the role had gone to someone else, it may have taken time to build that kind of chemistry. Tavia and Yoyo expressed great excitement about being in Zhongshan. Tavia expressed having brought her children to Zhongshan in the past. Did not bring her children along this time due to their extracurricular activities, saying that her childre are also growing up and do not need her constant presence. She said, "A few days ago, I suggested to my kids that we should be good friends, and my kids also agreed because, at their age, they like to play with their friends. Being friends with them would lower their guard; the parent role would be stricter". She said that her husband has also managed to become friends with their children, jokingly saying that she and her husband are 'enemies'. Yoyo expressed that her daughter is already 14 years old; she is able to have more time to work away from home, and both mother and daughter should give each other some space.
Tavia expressed that she watched one and a half episodes online and feels that the reception has been not bad. They will also be promoting the series over the next few days. She thinks that it is a good thing; it is very lively with a large group of women. There was a promotional poster where some actors were not holding roses; netizens speculated whether they were the ultimate masterminds or culprits. Tavia laughingly said that [people] were likely overthinking it; every woman is a rose. In the trailer, there are many scenes where Yoyo gets hit. She expressed that her character is a tragic figure; it is very sad to get physically and psychologically abused. She said, "I've noticed that I always play tragic figures. You (Tavia) always play incredible revenge storylines". Tavia laughingly said that she also played tragic figures in the past, but has now grown up and has returned to seek revenge.
Moses Chan Wants to Be a Rapper, Kenneth Ma Eagerly Pitches Himself and Hopes to Hold Shows with Fellow TV Kings
Moses expressed that he was visiting Zhongshan for the first time; it felt fresh and was very happy to go promote the series alongside fellow cast members Kenneth and Ruco. Kenneth frankly said that it felt like going on a trip. Moses expressed that this series involved many firsts for him: the first time collaborating with Director Kai, as well as his first collaboration with Ruco, Xia Wei, and Kelly. Kenneth expressed that, while he has worked wtih many of the actors before, this combination is a first...hopes to have more diverse combinations in the future.
Mentioning that Xia Wei, Elaine, and Kelly sing the series' ending theme song, Moses expressed envy, laughingly saying, "It's a waste to not use our male voices! With so many singers here--Ruco and Kenneth are also singers--could sing a song that is not in the series. I can be a rapper". Ruco expressed being very happy to see Kenneth, Edwin Siu, and Raymond Cho holding shows; it is great to witness everyone's various developments. Mentioning Kenneth's suggestion that he and Ruco partner up for a show, Kenneth said that the TV station actually has many people who can sing. Every time [they] hold a show, able to blend making money with entertainment; there is no pressure for everyone, and it is extremely fun.
Asked about his habit of asking others to include him in their shows, Kenenth readily admitted, "Yes, asking Ruco and Moses when they're going to include me". He jokingly said that he is a versatile candidate; dancing is the only thing that he cannot do. Kenneth said that his character this time is very devoted to Yoyo. Asked if his past characters have always been devoted, he said that he only played a playboy in the series "The Mysteries of Love". In the series, he was involved with six or seven females, and there was a lot of action scenes on the bed; it was extremely risqué. He jokingly said, "It was quite exhausting because had to constantly switch partners, and the most tiring part was having to wait for them to change clothes to ensure that there was no exposure".
Moses' role this time is a departure from his usual Mr. Nice Guy image. He said that the character is extremely complex; there is political infighting and is faced with many females, but laughingly said, "I just use [my] eyes to look [at the females]". Ruco expressed that [his] character gets entangled with two females.
Lin Xia Wei, Elaine Yiu, and Kelly Fu Forming a Girl Group to Sing the Ending Theme Song? Tells 'Boss' Moses Chan to Present Them with a Newcomer Award
Xia Wei, Elaine, and Kelly went to Zhongshan yesterday to promote the anniversary series "War". Talking about the three singing the ending theme song, 《大娛樂家》, Xia Wei expressed that having the actors themselves sing the ending theme song allows for a deeper immersion into the story, singing out the conflicted flavour. Elaine expressed finding the lyrics to be great, talking about the power struggles inherent in human relationships. She said, "I have never sung an ending theme song before. This time, the song is very difficult to sing well. (Did [you] take lessons from a vocal coach?) I did!" It was also Kelly's first time singing a series song; it felt like a dream come true, expressing that she was chosen following a casting. Elaine was chosen by Director Kai from footage of her previous singing performances. Xia Wei expressed being very fortunate to be chosen, revealing that everyone recorded her part separately, each singing the entire song. Through editing, it became the version that has been released now, revealing that they will be singing live for the first time [on the 9th].
Xia Wei revealed that the ending theme song has already been released on music streaming platforms...feeling excited. Elaine jokingly said that they could be newcomers in the music scene. Xia Wei said that being in a girl group would not be bad, and even proposed the group 「玫瑰組合」. Asked if they were confident in winning music awards, Xia Wei played along with the fact that Moses' character is the boss of an entertainment company, expressing, "Hope that he presents an award to us".
