After 9 years since Triumph in the Skies, the sequel Triumph in the Skies II is finally starting. Yesterday Francis Ng, Chilam Cheung, Myolie Wu, Fala Chen, Ron Ng, Kenneth Ma, Rebecca Zhu, Elena Kong and the rest of the cast attended the press conference.

Back then, there were rumors that Francis Ng was displeased with Myolie, but yesterday they chatted happily. Francis even teased that Myolie looks fatter than before. He also said to Ron: "You came early!" indirectly criticizing that he used to be late to work. Ron expressed: "Francis and I still have a brotherly relationship, but I'm no longer the young man 10 years ago, our relationship evolved into a friendship and we get along more comfortably."

Francis hasn't been in a TVB series for many years, he smiled and said: "I'm getting a huge raise." He also denied the rumor that he was delaying TITS2 from starting. It was said TVB is relying on him to save the lack of Siu Sangs? Francis expressed: "Wah! I have a lot of Siu Sangs behind me!" He is not worried about working with newcomers, but he fears he may break his promise and come late to work. Francis exposed back when he was shooting TITS, he had a naughty idea to get out of work. Because shooting was too exhausting, he and the others played 'rock paper scissors' to see who would have to pretend to be sick, so they can get a day off from work. At the time, Myolie was still a newcomer, so she didn't participate and had to get to work early.

Chilam sets the next 6 months aside to shoot TITS2 and has turned down several opportunities to shoot in Mainland, losing quite a bit of money. He frankly expressed he accepted this series to return a favor, because back then, executive Tommy Leung, casted him in Cold Blood Warm Heart and got him a lot more job opportunities. This time, he's playing a senior pilot and plans to use clothing from his own personal wardrobe, which is worth about 6 figures. When asked if he's paying TVB, instead of TVB paying him? Chilam laughed: "Because of Tommy, doing it for the audience, no choice, I'm just too good friends with Tommy."

Myolie plays two roles in the series. She exposed Zoe will only appear in the first two episodes and then she dies. Her other role is a tomboy, who works in aircraft maintenance. The producer asked her to cut her hair short for the role, but Myolie is reluctant to give up her current haircut, but for the sake of work, she will accept it.

In the series Fala gets into a love triangle with Francis and Chilam, but she doesn't know who she'll end up with yet. Fala said her development with Francis starts off as a bickering pair, while Chilam is the charming pilot who has a romantic storyline with her. She's unsure if there are any kiss scenes, she laughed: "Perhaps when we get to France, in the romantic atmosphere, we'll go for a light kiss. I'm not too worried since there's a television scale."

Kenneth Ma develops a 'sister-brother love' with Elena Kong. He expressed in reality he does not mind this type of relationship, women does not necessarily need men to take care of her, it could be vice versa. He also said he can accept a girlfriend 20 years older than him too, but he never been in such a relationship before.

TITS2's blessing ceremony is scheduled to take place on July 24th and filming officially starts on July 26th. Filming will go on for 6 months, and filming locations will be in London, Paris, Hainan and Taiwan.

Thoughts: Highly promoted grand production, such confusing storyline.

Fala Chen to release debut album, being called 'Mrs. Sit' and 'Big Sister'

In the recent year, record company Stars Shine has collected many singers, including Fala Chen, Linda Chung, Joyce Cheng, Alfred Hui, FAMA, Elanne Kong, Herbert Hu, Jinny Ng, Cilla Lok and the group Super Girls. Yesterday Stars Shine celebrated their 2nd anniversary and the establishment of the new label Sing Yeung Entertainment (星揚娛樂). The majority of their artists attended the anniversary celebration, except for Linda who is currently shooting in China. The boss (Herman Ho) announced that Fala Chen is Sing Yeung's first singer to release an album and her debut album A Beautiful Life is releasing later this month (July). Fala's mini film MV for her new songs Half (一半) and Atonement (贖罪) premiered at the event as well. It appears Fala is the big sister at Sing Yeung.

Linda had always been one of the boss Herman Ho's favorites and sits on a stable position as Stars Shine's big sister, while Fala takes the big sister spot at the new label (Sing Yeung). Dressed in a short attractive yellow dress, Fala denied she's big sister. She said: "Of course I would spend more time promoting for my new album instead. (Stars Shine heavily promoting you?) No, I'm a newcomer, a TVB artist has lots of opportunities. (Tell your 'husband' to sweep all the goods (her album) for you?) What husband? Who are you talking about? (Sit Sai Hang?) I don't know, ask Mr. Sit."



As for Joyce, she lost her voice due to fatigue of her throat and went to the emergency room not too long ago. When asked if her rumored Korean model boyfriend Jin knows about her condition? Joyce said: "What boyfriend? He's a male friend. He knows I'm unwell, many people care about me too." When speaking of her company Star Shine planning to heavily promote Fala? She said: "In my dictionary there is no jealousy or envy. I'm not afraid my company will put all their resources on Fala, I'm going to be releasing an album soon too."

Fala Chen excepts first Mainland role in Da Mo Yao

Fala Chen was resting until April before she could return to work so she could immerse herself wholeheartedly into "Triumph of the Skies 2." However, filming for the drama was postponed all the way till September. The script for the drama is still in the midst of being written, and Fala is currently slated to play a character that works the ground crew [at the airport?]. To fill her schedule, she has accepted a role in Mainland acient romance drama, Da Mo Yao (Ballad of the Desert) along with Maggie Cheung and Crystal Tin and played a role name Li Yan. Being the first time that she has acted in a Mainland drama, she has been reduced to a large supporting role.

Thoughts: other casts include Cecilia Liu, Eddie Peng, Hu Ge and Han Dong (as Li Gan) and probably will played Fala's characters brother. I'm excited to see how this drama turns out. The English tittle is Ballad of the Desert. Filming this drama is wrapped for Fala in June.

Fala Chen rather being the little sister in Starshine

Yesterday Fala Chen attended a RTHK event with Elanne Kong. Previously Fala messed up on her live singing performance on JSG, and this time she performs her song live once again, still appearing nervous, but she's still satisfied with the performance. She said: "I can still improve. Also, I have been taking lessons all long, there is no limit to learning." It was reported that Kay Tse signed a HK$2 million contract and joins her company Stars Shine to compete for the Big Sister position with her? Fala said: "How can I be qualified to compete for Big Sister? Behind Joyce Cheng and Elanne Kong, I am still a newcomer. In fact, it's not bad being a little sister, I'm still young."



It was rumored Fala's boyfriend, Neway Prince, Sit Sai Hung is the secret owner of Stars Shine, but Fala said that's an enormous misunderstanding. "I am just a small singer that TVB outsourced. Stars Shine's boss is very low-profile, I never even met him before."

Elanne appeared in a short dress, but when sitting down she carelessly reveals her white undies. When her colleague, below the stage, hinted for her to cover up, she quickly got up. Reporters teased she defeated Fala? She said: "No, her long dress is pretty too. (Rumored Kay is joining your company as Big Sister?) There isn't any Big Sister or anything in our company."

Fala Chen might have to kiss a Korean Guy for new MV

Fala Chen’s debut album will be launched in July. Apart from being busy she’s also been promoting her new single. Yesterday she was at Causeway Bay shooting for her new MV at a coffee shop. Fala expressed that earlier she was shooting indoors, and within a day she was already shooting for two MV’s. Therefore the two MV’s can link in together.

She also reveals that apart from herself in the MV, there will be also a handsome guy and a few girls. Asked if she and the leading man will have any intimacy shots, Fala smiles and replied “Don’t know yet. but I don’t think I’ll be able to comunicate with him because he is korean person”. Asked if her boyfriend will mind about the intimacy shots, Fala said her boyfriend doesn’t know that she is shooting for her MV. She doesn’t mind if there’s any intimacy shots. The MV will be shown to Department of TV broadcast before its released, so there should be limit of intimacy.

Fala also expressed that before she started working on her MV she already finished filming. In order to express the elegant effect, she has already been blowing herself in a room for a few hours to get the elegant effect. She said “In the video, I will be wearing an outfit that will show more of my body lines, so its very different. This is a very cool type of style and it will show the saddness of the song”.

Before Fala was recording for her song in “Jade Solid Gold” she was accused of singing out of tone. Fala blieves she did an good job, she said “After re-watching the part of me singing I met a couple of friends and discussed about it, and they believed that the outcome wasn’t that bad. I can accept it and I am also relieve about it”.

To avoid being a fool and singing out of tine , Fala expressed that she will practice more singing and be prepared for next weeks singing.

Fala Chen messes up on Live singing, nervous and tears up

Fala Chen, William Chan and Sherman Chung were recording on JSG last night. Fala appeared in a back-revealing long dress: "Because this is my first time on JSG as a singer, and I have to perform live, so I'm treating this as a grand occasion. (Nervous?) Yes, so I practiced the song several times."




Fala frankly expressed it's quite a challenge for her to perform Cantonese songs and high notes. When she was recording, she got off-key the first two tries and couldn't reach the high notes. Although Fala barely got it on the third try, the executive at her record company wanted perfection, and asked her to record the song another time. Later, Fala explained: "I was a little nervous singing live for the first time. While I was singing, I got too into the song. I thought of the lonely feeling conveyed in the song, and the tears just came out! (Are you satisfied with your performance?) OK la! (How would you score yourself?) I don't know! There aren't any scores on JSG." Did her boyfriend give her any advice? Fala said: "Nobody has heard the new song. It is important that I rely on practicing the song myself and not on getting advice from others. If I wanted to ask, I would ask my teacher, producer or boss for professional advice."



Fala's debut album is scheduled to release in July, when asked if she knows her 'sister-in-law' Marie Zhuge is also releasing an album? She coldly said: "I haven't heard, ok!" When asked again if she's afraid of the competition? She generously responded: "Why would that be? There are so few singers in the HK music industry nowadays, I hope the industry will flourish with healthy competition." She also said she's not afraid that the public will compare her to Marie: "It's enough to do my best on my own part."

Fala Chen promotes for her first song plug "Half"

Fala Chen just completed shooting a series in Mainland and came back to Hong Kong. Yesterday afternoon, she arrived at Metro Radio for an interview and to promote for her first plug Half (一半). Fala is preparing to release her debut album this summer, and to accompany the fast songs in her new album, she'll be turning herself into a 'mo lui' (female dancer). She said: "This week I'm going to shoot the MV and the cover shoot. Most likely I'll have the pretty girl image. In fact, I can go down the Rock and stylish path too. Also, I'm expecting dance arrangements because I have a few fast songs.



As for playing with sex appeal, I don't think so! Because sexy doesn't really fit the feel of my new song. I still don't know who the male lead in my MV will be, but I don't want my boyfriend's help. Just leave it to my company to make the arrangements." Fala reveals her new song Half is about a lonely girl without her other half. In reality Fala, who already has a boyfriend (Sit Sai Hang), was it difficult for her to get into the feeling of the song, she smiled sweetly and said: "I'm an actress! It's just like acting, have to get into character and the emotions." Asked if her boyfriend heard her new song yet? Fala said: "Besides the music producer who has heard the song, my boyfriend hasn't heard my new song yet, so he can't comment on it."

Fala Chen's hectic schedule creates huge mental pressure

Fala Chen have been busy filming her first Mainland drama and recording her songs. She admitted the mental pressure is huge, and also tag along with her boyfriend to reduce stress. But the work increase, so they rarely get to have alone time.
