This ming pao article mainly focuses on the recent trend of TVB artists entering the mainland industry to film series prompting TVB to promote the second-line TVB artistes into the first-line. On Tuesday, 7th of June, TVB held an event called as “Skyline 100” to attract advertising clients. From the line up standing of artistes one can predict who will be promoted in the future!
With Charmaine Sheh leaving TVB, this leaves Tavia Yeung, Linda Chung, Myolie Wu, Fala Chen and Kate Tsui to lead as first-line TVB actress. Currently, TVB is promoting second-line actresses Aimee Chan, Selena Li, Natalie Tong, Nancy Wu, Kristal Tin and Sire Ma. Aimee Chan has advanced to the front line at this event, while Selena Li and Natalie Tong has been given the opportunity to lead in the new series "The Boxing King". Nancy Wu also has a large role in "The Boxing King" and is casted in TVB's grand production "Triuphs in the Skies II". Kristal Tin's acting has never been doubted and she is now showing her versatility by also excelling in hosting. Finally, Sire Ma has received many prises from various TVB producers.
Current first-line TVB actors include Wayne Lai, Moses Chan, Raymond Lam, Kevin Cheng, Roger Kwok, Steven Ma, Bosco Wong, and Ron Ng. However, the second-line actors are rising quickly. This includes Kenneth Ma, who is leading in two large production series "Back to three kingdoms" and "On call for 36 hours", and Raymond Wong, leading in the upcoming series "My Cruel Lover". Both Kenneth Ma and Raymond Wong are well received among the public. In addition, Micheal Tse and Pierre Ngo may also be on the list of rising second-line actors. Micheal and Pierre both have accumulated years of acting experience and have developed their own style of acting. Like Wayne Lai, Evergreen Mak had been neglected by TVB, however, Evergreen may be slowly becoming ‘the second Wayne Lai’ or ‘the pirated version of Bobby Au Yeung’. Finally, Jazz Lam has gained popularity with the audience as the joker due to his roles in “My Sister of Eternal Flower” and “Ghetto Justice”, which are both currently being aired in Hong Kong.
