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.

TVB Sales Presentation: 2010 3

Capturing attention immediately with fast-paced, gory vengeful action and ending with a bang, the possibility of TVB actually living up to its “Good Show” motto is high in 2010. The overall feeling of the sales presentation is grand. Other than a miss here or there, many shows appear promising. I am excited!

TVB Anniversary Nominations: 2009 4

There is approximately one week until we find out the results to this year’s TVB 42nd Anniversary Awards, which will broadcast on December 4, 2009. With the ever-raging voices of fans supporting almost the same batch of nominees, it will be interesting to see whether TVB decides to listen to the masses or continue with their we-don’t-care favoritism tactic. Of course, the latter has a higher chance of happening, as we all should know by now, but last year’s awards proved that to be somewhat wrong. Perhaps, a miracle will light upon us this December.

Missing You Day and Night 2

Click Here to See Clip

Let Linda Chung be Mark (Andrew Lincoln), some random TVB kelefe be Juliet (Keira Knightley) and some other random TVB kelefe be Peter (Chiwetel Ejiofor), change the setting to Halloween instead of Christmas, write a few different phrases but leave in the most important one, and we get a "conceptual rendition," for my lack of a better word, of Love Actually. If you might recall, a similar event occurred in La Femme Desperado between Chai Foon (Raymond Lam) and Chi Ling (Melissa Ng). Nevertheless, Ah Foon was smart enough to not use the exact same quote, "To me, you are perfect."

So I ask, can’t you be more original TVB? Is it really THAT hard? While I am at it, I ask whether Linda know about this? According to an On.cc article, all she said was she never saw the movie and only followed the director’s directions. (That’s what all other artists do too, right?) SERIOUSLY? Any intelligent director, any intelligent artist, any intelligent crew member would do some research before filming. Or am I asking for too much?

In addition, if you’re going to copy something, do a good job at it. Don’t film an unrequited lovey-dovey piece of garbage that can’t even manage to pull a heartstring!

Stars on Twitter? 7

Twitter is the trend lately, whether for keeping updated with your friends, favorite blogs, local and/or global breaking news, entertainment, or even your most beloved actors, actresses, idols, singers, musicians, whatever. Although I still don’t understand why anyone would have a following number over 100, I really do believe Twitter is a fast, convenient, easy to use, and totally awesome form of short, simple, and sweet communication that fits well in this modern generation that’s always racing against time.

Today, after getting home from dealing with everything else in life, I was very bored so of course, I was on Twitter browsing around needlessly. When visiting two Twitter pages of artists I know of, Sammul Chan and Bernice Liu, I decided maybe I should check out who they follow. I basically went on a Find People hunt and in doing so, found quite a few other artists (I at least know the name of) on Twitter, albeit none that I really care about. The result of my "hardwork" is in the list below, in no particular order.
