An Analysis of TVB Cliques 6
I’m sure many of you have already heard about the corruption fiasco surrounding Stephen Chan, who was the host of Be My Guest and General Manager (GM) of TVB. If you have not, please read the news here. I did not plan on posting anything about this since the news have been spreading 1000 mph around the internet highway. But more news seem to pop up everyday regarding this matter and involving more artists and opinions. In addition, I think as TVB fans, it’s important to be aware of what’s going on with the company, even if it’s not as great as it used to be. The whole situation also makes for some very interesting business/political drama. And who knows? You might get more insight into what’s really going on behind-the-scenes, how the company is treating your favorite artists, or even where the brighter/darker future of the company may be.
What I’m posting here is a translated article about the 4 parties found in TVB. Whether the details are true is not something I can tell you, but I think the article is a very good read–direct, honest, and sound. I will also collect all news regarding this matter and make a list linking to them at the end of this post. That way, we’ll have a "library" of this case. I won’t be writing any thoughts about this matter yet, because it’s still too early to speak. I don’t want to sound like an idiot, pointing fingers here and there when I know little to nothing about what’s hidden beneath the cover. I might make some comments once we hear of an actual verdict and understand the story in its entirety.
Please keep reading for all the awfully juicy details.

NG: Pageant Winner vs Paparazzi Prince 4
When I was a kid and watched television only for fun, I thought television work was easy. I thought actors and actresses had an easy, rich everyday life. They get on set, sit around, say a few lines, and get pay big bucks. I didn’t know jack about filming, and definitely had no clue actors could have bad takes (NG). Even when I became more knowledgeable, I didn’t care about how actors did on set or how many takes they went through before making the director’s cut. Even when I became a drama freak, I still didn’t care, not until I was exposed to NG clips from War and Destiny. I realized at that point, as a fan, audience, and outsider to the industry, that one could learn a lot from watching NG clips. Whether it’s a certain artist’s personality or professionalism, the relationships among the actors and actresses, or an artist’s acting ability, anything can be exposed through an NG clip.
Here, I present to you NG clips from Beauty of the Game of two artists, in which I think the gap in their acting abilities is obvious. On the top is the pageant winner, whether in real life or crafted fiction, Kate Tsui and her amusing twirling scene. On the bottom is the short but spunky, hot favorite comedian Wong Cho Lam and his passionate water dumping scene. Let’s see how they fare!
