    Next month is already the Anniversary month, among the awards there'll be bitterly fought for the [Best Actress Award]. However, another small group of new Siu Fa's is quietly bringing out a revolution. Selena Li, Miss Photogenic in Miss Hongkong Pageant 2003, has a high rate of on-screen appearance lately. From the re-broadcast of her drama [To Grow With Love] in the evening to the broadcast of her series [The Four] in the prime-time, she even takes part in the home viewing show [Living Up]. Her human spirit index explodes lights, no wonder that recently she became the new "darling" in the advertising industry, she keeps getting many advert jobs and stage performances. She can become a Fadan at any time!

    Starting that time as a Miss Hongkong participant from Canada, Selena has unconscious joined the entertainment industry for already five years. Without counting the soon-to-be-released series [When Easterly Showers Fall On The Sunny West], she has a total of 5 series aired this year, she can be considered as the crown of fadans. No wonder that she is full of confidence in winning the [Most Improved Actress Award]. She says: "[Survivor's Law II], which aired early this year, was well-received by the audience, this has given me a strong self-confidence. This year is already my fourth year that I get nominated for the [Most Improved Actress Award]. If I tell you that I don't want to win an award, then it is a lie, but I also don't want to give myself too much pressure. Moreover, the competition this year is also very strong, like Tavia Yeung and Sharon Chan, both did a great job. Actually, I don't mind who will win, I will still be happy. If I win, I'll be of course extra happy. When our company announced the official nominees list, I have also sent a message to Tavia, we will both do our best."

    Full of injuries for [The Four]
    In the recent broadcasting hit series [The Four], Selena plays the high-skilled kungfu fighter Nam Yeuk Fei, an agressive and obstinate character, who becomes a mumping enemy of constable Kenneth Ma. Playing a female fighter for the first time, she tries to do it all herself, with as result that her body is full of injuries. "Actually, the drama is filmed during the winter in Yunnan Shilin. That place is very cold, but really beautiful. The company has arranged a stuntman for me, but I think that if it doesn't exceed my strength, then doing it myself is still better, so I declined the crew's good intention. In the entire process, to deal with the continually wuxia fighting scenes, I constantly got abrasions and bruises."

    Although Selena doesn't have a martial arts background, she can luckily dance. Therefore her movements are quite agile, which is sufficient to deal with the fighting scenes. The thing that makes her most embarrassed instead, is when she accidently missed which causes injuries to the staffmember who got hit by her. "My role in the series uses a leather whip as weapon, but because I do not have a martial arts background, I would miss a lot of times. I remember the first time, the staffmember asides me was extremely shocked, my leather whip doesn't have eyes. Most of the time I hit the opponents for the first time by mistake. I really had to say sorry to them."
