Moses Chan, Kenneth Ma, and Bosco Wong respectively became the TV kings of Hong Kong, Malaysia, and the Greater Bay Area at "TV Awards Presentation 2023" last year; the results were on par with one another. In 2024, the Year of the Dragon, the three TV kings hope to continue last year's strong fortune, joining forces for the first time to form an iron triangle in the web series "Law Enforcers" produced by Shaw Brothers. Along with the other cast members, [they] look forward to creating the strongest sparks and also wish everyone good health and good luck in the Year of the Dragon!
Moses, Kenneth, and Bosco are collaborating in the web series "Law". Since the filming work has already officially started, they have not flown to another place to celebrate the Lunar New Year. Taking advantage of the three-day holiday from the first to the third days of the Lunar New Year, they can warmly spend the holiday with their family. Kenneth married Roxanne Tong at the end of last year. After getting married, he is spending the New Year for the first time as a married man and handing out double red pockets. Bosco loudly said, "This year, I can justifiably ask for a red pocket from you!" Kenneth said that there is not much of a difference in the feeling between celebrating festive occasions before and after marriage because, before he became a married man, he had already handed out red pockets when work resumed; however, he also followed his wife's instructions and helped tidy the house in accordance with traditional Chinese customs. When exchanging New Year's greetings with relatives and friends, did [they] get blessed to have a baby soon? Kenneth laughingly said that he is already used to hearing it and has an open-minded attitude toward the plan of making a baby: "On the first day that we announced that we were dating, there were already people urging [us] to get married. On the first day of announcing [our] marriage, there were also people urging us to have a baby! Chasing for a Dragon boy or a Dragon girl? My wife and I are both leaving it to fate. There is no pressure".
Kenneth Ma: The Biggest Gain Is Taking a Good Wife
As a father of three children, Moses openly passed on to Kenneth the secret to successfully having a baby: "It's very simple. Three words: 'Work slightly harder!" Kenneth said that he understood; for the time being, he will first work hard to earn money to support his family to prepare for having children in the future and make money for powdered milk. Looking back on last year's great harvest in his career and love life, Kenneth said that the biggest gain is getting married and taking a good wife. His New Year's wish, as always, is for everyone to be healthy and for the family to be safe and well.
Having a rare three-day New Year holiday, Moses is playing with his children and taking them to their relatives' and friends' homes to exchange New Year's greetings to let his children know about traditional customs: "When Kenneth has his own children, believe that [he] will be particularly anxious about festive occasions because, as a parent, really want the kids to still remember the context and atmosphere of festive occasions when they grow up, such as Lunar New Year, Christmas, and Easter, so they understand the meanings and experiences in them".
Bosco Wong: Spends the New Year with Family if He Does Not Have to Work
Among the three TV kings, only the 43-year-old Bosco is still a diamond bachelor. He, who has always been filial, would stay in Hong Kong most of the time to spend the New Year with family if he does not have to work, and show off his skills as the kitchen god at home: "On the second day of the New Year, always go to a relative's house to exchange New Year's greetings. If there is time, I would be responsible for frying cakes. Would also make a large pot of a vegetarian dish ahead of time and braise abalone and sea cucumbers to share with [my] family. Unfortunately, busy filming a series this year, so do not have time". He expressed that he would also transform into the God of Wealth and hand out money when he plays mahjong with his family during the New Year, laughingly saying that, even if he wins money, would later hand out red pockets to make his family happy.
Moses Chan: Observe a While Before Expanding Business Domain
Moses, who was able to win TV king again as the hot favourite last year, hopes that the Year of the Dragon continues to bring good luck, wishing everyone good health and that all circumstances are favourable. [He] also hopes to keep up the good work, including the web series "Law", which he is participating in, achieving good results, and will continue to personally take care of his coffee business, maintaining a stable development in both fronts in the New Year. The most important thing is that the economy makes a turn for the better and everyone makes a lot of money: "I will cherish every job opportunity and stick to [my] post. In terms of [my] business, since the current economic environment is not too certain, need to have a prudent and stable attitude and must make clear calculations and balance the expenses and costs before considering whether to expand the business domain".
Loving Father Turns into a Strict Teacher
Moses is a good father who takes great care of his family. Of course, [his] New Year's wish is for his children to quickly grow and make academic progress. It turns out that he is not only usually a specialist in play, but he would also help his children with homework if has time: "My wife, Aimee (Chan), and I take turns sharing the responsibility of educating the children. Firmly believe that, if the parents follow up on the homework, the children's results would be better because the most important thing is laying a good foundation and knowing how to study on [your] own so that [you] can make up for [your] shortcomings. Definitely have to learn Chinese". When preparing for school exams, Moses would share his usual method of memorizing dialogue when filming series with his children to help them improve their ability to understand because, as long as [they] understand the meaning, [they] will be able to naturally absorb it, which is better than relying on rote memorization. He laughingly said that he occasionally turns into a strict teacher: "Normally, I can happily play with my kids in a relaxed manner, but when being their teacher, would become very strict and demanding. The purpose is to cultivate a correct attitude toward learning; however, the most important thing is that it is already enought that they are safe, healthy, and obedient. Of course, also hope to always be affectionate with my wife".
