Yesterday Lawrence Ng, Tavia Yeung, Kenneth Ma, Him Law, Mandy Wong and the rest of The Hippocratic Crush II cast attended the first promotional event. Last night, Netizens initiated a "No TV" night to support HKTV's licensing issue. Lawrence supported TVB won't get affected by HKTV. He said: "Why did they do that? There isn't ATV now, and the audience are watching TVB after all. In the past ATV had fought before, there was an ATV series by former TVB producer Gary Tang The Men of Justice, it was pretty high quality, but at the time why didn't anybody watch it? The audience were still watching TVB. If HKTV did get their license, they will have series releasing, but TVB will have The Hippocratic Crush III releasing as well. Then their destiny is the same as ATV, there isn't a difference! This incident, you can only said the government didn't grant them their license, it has nothing to do with TVB nor can you blame them (HKTV), its just not fair! TVB produced so many classics, the overseas audience enjoy their series too. If HKTV comes into the picture, is it guaranteed that they'll be better? I don't think so! I don't believe HKTV can defeat TVB!"
It was rumored Tavia Yeung and Moses Chan's manager Chan Ka Lei is leaving TVB to start her own company soon. Tavia was asked if she'll follow her manager and leave TVB as well? She expressed she still has a contract with TVB: "My contract doesn't end until next year. The news is just what the report said, I never said anything. I've been discussing with TVB on the contract terms now, but TVB will always be my first choice since I have been working here for over 10 years. I hope to spend more time with my mother and more opportunities to shoot films and develop in Mainland. I hope to go out and see the world." Tavia stressed she is unsure of where her manager is going, but hopes they'll have opportunities to collaborate again. As for TV Queen, Tavia won't give herself pressure, but this year she's supporting Linda Chung.
In regards to the rumor that Moses follow his manager and leave TVB, then TVB plans to heavily promote Kenneth Ma to the top? Kenneth joked: "Weren't they using an award to make Moses stay? TVB should first convince Moses to stay, then after two months promote me! (Compete for TV King title?) The competition is fierce. I'll be satisfied enough to make it to the top five!"
Kenneth & Tavia Risked Rupturing Their Fate (warning: spoilers) The Hippocratic Crush II is premiering next Monday and will continue the trilling story of human nature. Picking up from the first season, "Yat Kin Tau" Kenneth and "Yu Jai" Tavia overcame many obstacles and finally got married, but when we all thought the couple would live a happy life after marriage, Tavia's spinal tumor comes back to haunt her just when she finds out she's pregnant. The couple had to make the difficult decision on whether to go on with chemotherapy or give up the baby. Additionally, Tavia knew she won't be able to continue as a surgeon in the future, so she started exploring other options on how she can continue being a doctor and saving lives. After his younger brother's death, Kenneth faces contradictions in his mother and Tavia's illnesses. Due to all the pressure, Kenneth eventually develops depression. When Tavia decides to go into pathological research, Kenneth thought she was influenced by Lawrence to give up her passion and the couple started quarreling more because of their different views. Later, Tavia suggested that they have a period of separation so they can calm down and learn to understand one another all over again....
Kenneth said 'Yat Kin Tau' had many difficult crisis to get through in the series. First it was his wife's illness coming back while she was pregnant, then eventually he develops depression from all the stress. The story gets into the blood and meat. Kenneth expressed he and his partner Tavia Yeung have developed more and more sparks as they collaborate.
