Headline: Close to Paco, Bosco Obviously Getting Good Things for Myolie

Words on the Red Background:

With Charmaine Sheh and Bowie Lam going to Mainland China to film, many artistes are leaving TVB. With three years of contract left with TVB, Bosco Wong was reportedly forced to sign another 8 years with TVB or else he would be frozen.

With an unknown future ahead of him, the magazine photographed Bosco eating out with Paco Wong. He sucessfully persuaded Paco to open a romantic comedy film for him. As they were hotpotting, Bosco was trying to persuade Paco to leave a second line female role for girlfriend Myolie. Thus, they would be able to make money as a couple team.

For the past two Chinese New Year films, thanks to Eric Tsang, Bosco was able to secure his leading male role. With Mainland China and other management companies wanting to take him in, Bosco has plenty of options. Heavily promoted by TVB, every time Bosco plays a role, he is only 'second popular'. In the recent "Lives of Omission", it is obvious that Michael Tse had a better role to portray and therefore will be more popular than Bosco in the series. Compared with Raymond Lam, Bosco is certainly not as promoted.

Treated differently plus being forced to sign another 8 years, Bosco felt it is unfair that Raymond Lam was not forced to sign more years with TVB, although both their contracts are ending shortly. Currently, the contract issues have not be solved yet. However, TVB has made it clear that if Bosco does not sign, he will be frozen. His screen time in October's upcoming "Triumph in the Skies" will either be cut or decreased.

(Persuading Paco to Use Girlfriend)

Bosco feels that adding 8 years to his current contract is like 'adding time in jail'. He wants to film movies, but with Shaw Brother's only one yearly 'Chinese New Year films', Bosco feels it is too little. With Eric Tsang's help, Bosco was able to familiarize with Paco Wong, who recently started investing in movies. With his sweet-mouthing skills, Bosco was able to persuade Paco to open a new film for him. "Actually Paco feels that Bosco's image is not too bad. Although he is not that popular on TV, his price per film is very low. He will do it for HKD 400,000. Paco will open a romantic comedy film for him. First lead actress will be Stephy Tang," an insider revealed.

Yesterday, Bosco was photographed with Paco eating out. This was to discuss details about the upcoming film. Bosco also tried to persuade Paco numerous times to let Myolie be the second female lead in the film. "Bosco knew that in the film, another female will have to fight Stephy to get the man. She will have a lot of screen time. But, Paco has not found someone to play that role yet. During their dinner, Bosco would tell Paco to try using Myolie in every other line he said. He used Charmaine Sheh to compare. Paco didn't want to be the bad person, so he drank cups of alcohol, one after another. At the end, he agreed. But, a few days later when Bosco asked Paco, Paco stated that with the amount he drank, he forgot when he said."

On Tuesday, the magazine phoned Paco and he said: " Filming should start at the end of the month. Actually, I am quite excited to work with Bosco. I think his acting is pretty good." (Did Bosco ask you for Myolie to be in as well?) "Huh...... really? I haven't heard. But, as you know, TVB has time arrangements for the artistes. It cannot be done in a short period of time."

(Trying to Obtain More Opportunities)

Besides sweet-talking Paco Wong to open a new film, Bosco also recommended himself to his music label company's boss. "Bosco is a sweet-talked. Every time we ate out with Media Asia's Peter Lam, Bosco created a lively environment, making Peter Lam very happy. Bosco also took these opportunities to sell himself into making more movies. He claimed he would like to play any role of a movie. One time, a drunk Peter Lam told Bosco he would make him the second Andy Lau. Bosco then told everyone. But, Peter Lam manages a lot of top artistes, therefore, Bosco is better off waiting in line! After that time, there has been no follow up." The magazine phoned Peter Lam's company, and its spokesperson, Miss Leung said "Bosco has a lot of potential. If there is a role suitable for him, we will find him."

The Yellow Box: Besides Bosco wanting to film movies, a lot of TVB first lead male artistes have tried filming movies. But, most of them ended with terrible feedback.

Raymond Lam (The Jade and the Pearl, HKD 3.15 million): TVB's most heavily promoted male artist, Raymond Lam, collaborated with Charlene Choi and Joey Yung. TVB thought he would do well. Unfortunately, the film did not do well in movie theaters. At the end, Mona Fong had to handwrite a letter claiming it was not Raymond Lam's fault.

Wong Cho Lam (Short of Love, HKD 6.5 million): Two years ago, Wong Cho Lam gained popularity for portraying his role in "Best Selling Secrets". He was able to film in "Short of Love" with six other actresses. Although box ratings weren't that good, he still did better than the other male artistes.

Kevin Cheng (Super Fans, HKD 3.2 million): With 2007's "Under the Canopy of Love", Kevin Cheng brought home Best Actor Award. With such popularity, he collaborated with Charlene Choi in the movie, yet failed to achieve high box ratings.
