Contract renewal for award winners hit a snag

The most talked about TVB topic this week is the retrenchment of over 200 TVB employees. Many artistes have provided their reactions on the issue. According to reports, TVB assured artistes that any retrenchment exercises carried out will not affect them. However, another report recently surfaced and it appears that although artistes are not directly affected, they will still be some indirect implications.

It was reported that contract discussions with Ha Yu, Michelle Yim and Wayne Lai have halted. It appears that Wayne was the first to admit that TVB has informed him of their intention to postpone contract discussions for his contract renewal. Wayne explained, "This is not unusual and I will not be unhappy. I've been in this line for so long, I should have hit a wage ceiling. And my award has brought me extra income; I will be performing in Vancouver this New Year!"

Wayne Lai with his Best Supporting Actor Award

Just like Wayne, Michelle also appears optimistic. She understands that TVB doesn't want this to happen either but the world economy crisis left them without an alternative. She revealed that she still has a year to go on her current contract. Michelle also advised those retrenched to stay positive and hoped that the company will re-hire them when they can.

Bosco Wong and Linda Chung are the luckier few who managed to renew their contract before the economy crisis. "When I went back to office today, I realized many make up artists and hairstylists have received the retrenchment letter. I have known for four years and I'm really upset about this. Lets hope the crisis will be over soon," Linda said. Bosco however refused to give any comments, saying that "retrenchment is a company's policy."

No surprises at TVB 41st Anniversary Awards

The 41st TVB Anniversary Awards was held on Saturday Night. The night's biggest winners were Ha Yu and Michelle Yim who managed to snag the Best Actor and Best Actress Award respectively.

In his acceptance speech, Ha Yu said he has waited 40 years for this award. Ha Yu, who was almost in tears, said "I have waited for 40 years. I did a lot of movies and TV series. At last I have achieved what I have always wanted. I need to thank 'Uncle 6' (Sir Run Run Shaw). He has been my boss since I started my acting life." Ha Yu ended his speech with a line borrowed from Sa Yee in Moonlight Resonance - If you say I can make it, I will make it. If you say I can't, then I won't make it!

Michelle Yim said when she accepted the role of Hung Yee, she didn't expect that she would be the most hated woman in all Hong Kong in 2008! But that happened and that also won her the Best Actress Award. Almost in tears, Michelle thanked her boyfriend, Wan Chi Keung, her family and friends for their support. She also expressed her disbelief that she is competing for this award even at her age.

Wayne Lai, who walked the red carpet with Michelle Yim, won the Best Supporting Actor Award. Everyone cheered for Wayne when his name was announced. Wayne has been repeatedly nominated but has failed to win until Saturday night when fortunes were turned.

Tavia Yeung, a favourite of viewers for her role as Yuet in Moonlight Resonance, beat veteran Lee Heung Kam for the Best Supporting Actress Award. The first thing Tavia did when accepting her award was to acknowledge Lee Heung Kam and asked the audience to give her a round of applause.

Lee Si Kei, winner of Best Actress in 2007, won the Favourite Female Character award for her role as Hor Ma. Raymond Lam picked up the male version of the same award, Favourite Male Character, for his role as Goon Ga Zai. Raymond also picked up the TVB.Com award for having the most readers to his TVB Blog.

Paul Chun, a TVB veteran was honoured for his work. he was given the Lifetime Achievement Award for his contribution to the industry. Paul joked that he was afraid that he would be asked to retire after being given this award. Paul stressed that he loves to act and acting is part and parcel of his life. He wishes to continue acting for another 10 years at least and said maybe by that time TVB could give him another award.

Ha Yu is confident, shares his take on Best Actress

Ha Yu's portrayal of Jo Bao in Moonlight Resonance has earned him praises from many viewers and netizens. Ha Yu is a nominee for the prestigious Best Actor Award along side his son in the same series, portrayed by Raymond Lam. Ha Yu maintained that he has the right amount of confidence, "Of course I would want to win, but there is no certainty. Seeing the netizens support me is just like half-winning to me already. But really, in this world there are many sudden changes. Last year, I was known to have one of the highest chances as well, but failed in the end. As for this year, it seems like my chances are higher. If I still lose, then it's not related to whether I did a good job or not, but related to the methods and qualifications of voting, and by that I would fee more relaxed. Disappointment is inevitable, but I still have to continue to live on, and continue acting." Ha Yu's online votes has managed to surpass even Raymond's who was the earlier front runner for the sought-after award!

Ha Yu revealed that it was more difficult to portray Jo Bao compared to playing Dai Bao from Heart of Greed. With Dai Bao, he has the chance to appear comical, whereas with Jo Bao, the character is more serious, who made mistakes and yet refuse to acknowledge them. This makes Ja Bao a deeper character if compared to Dai Bao.

Ha Yu also revealed that the success of Moonlight Resonance has indirectly increased the number of job offers he received. During this coming Christmas season, he and his fellow Moonlight Resonance co-stars - Lee Si Kei, Raymond Lam and Linda Chung will be in the United States and Canada for performances and other jobs.

Seeing that Ha Yu is highly rumoured to pick up the Best Actor Award, whom does he prefer to take the female version, the Best Actress Award. Ha Yu believes that all the ladies of Moonlight Resonance are equally capable. But considering Lee Si Kei picked up the award last year, then Ha Yu felt that Michelle Yim and Susanna Kwan deserve a chance at the awards. But if he has to choose between the two, then his choice would be Michelle Yim. In Ha Yu's opinion Michelle portrayed her evil role well even though she did not have many scenes.

They also obliged photographers with many photographs together. Ha Yu was questioned if Raymond's nomination pose a big treat to him, he said, "Not threatening, this time it's not a one on one competition, even if we didn't have Raymond Lam it doesn't mean that I will definitely get the award, one died out there will be others. Each nomination is very powerful.

Ha Yu and Raymond Lam: Friends or Foes?

Raymond admit that he has looked at the polls online, and he appeared to be leading, but is not convinced that the results will remain that way. He felt that every nominee is strong and is a "rival". Clarifying about the dinner that he supposedly treat TVB executives to in order to guarantee his win, Raymond said, "Oh its related to it? Aiya, I didn't even talk about it and I already had the dinner!" Raymond further explained that he dinner was to discuss his work schedule and there's nothing more about the simple dinner.

Lee Si Kei, a strong contender for the TV Queen award, said TVB should have cheaper dinner parties so that artistes can save money and use those spare cash for advertisements to garner votes.

Mooncakes outshines cast of Moonlight Resonance

Part of the cast of Moonlight Resonance (MR) attended a promotional event at a shopping mall recently. Those present include Lee Si Kei, Michelle Yim, Moses Chan, Chris Lai, Tavia Yeung, Ha Yu and Kate Tsui.

The cast played games such as limbo rock and challenged members of the audience to reenact certain scenes from the series. Some of the apparatus/tools used during the event was placed online for bidding by a netizen, proceeds of which will be donated to the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups.

To end the event, the cast distributed mooncakes to those present. There was a mad rush to get to mooncakes, creating a near-chaotic atmosphere. Mall officials, told the crowd to calm down and remain seated as there are elderly folks present and may get hurt in the jostling.

Tavia and Kate distributed mooncakes from the stage and avoid going into the crowd while Lee Si Kei, Chris and Moses passed out the mooncakes directly to the audience. Tavia commented that the scene is very dangerous and the crowd is actually fighting to get the mooncakes. She lamented that even the baskets used to hold the mooncakes are not spared. Tavia joked, "how come the mooncakes are more popular than us? No one called out our names, they only said 'Tavia can you give me a mooncake!' But I have never had so much fun passing out mooncakes, I'm only worried about the elders!"

Moses explained that the packaging of the mooncakes have the words "Moonlight Resonance" in Chinese on it, which makes the mooncakes very special. Lee Si Kei said the mooncakes supply ran out quickly but also expressed her concern for the safety of the elderly.

Susanna Kwan hopes that there'll be a third collaboration with the cast, the first being "Heart of Greed".
