Although Fala Chen’s (陳法拉) management contract with TVB is expiring in May, she has not signed a renewal contract with the company yet. Stating that she wished for greater advancement and that “TVB’s pay will not increase much”, it is speculated that Fala will focus on the mainland Chinese market instead. Reports surfaced yesterday that Fala will be signing a per-series contract with TVB, in which she will film one series per year at a fee of $40,000 HKD per episode. Huayi Brothers was allegedly interested in signing Fala to heavily promote her in the mainland Chinese market. Amidst speculations over her future working arrangements with TVB, Fala revealed she has not made a final decision yet. “TVB gave me many options. We are still negotiating right now and things are not finalized,” Fala said. Since Fala has worked at TVB for eight years and has good relationships with management, she will consider TVB’s offer first. TVB is eager to retain Fala, whom the company has heavily promoted to lead fadan status. Aside from Fala leading in Triumph in the Skies 2 <衝上雲霄II>, it is rumored that Will Power <傳愛事務所> will be a designated Anniversary series to appease Fala and improve her chances of winning the Best Actress award. Fala said, “If [Will Power] is an Anniversary series, then more viewers will notice the drama. However, I will not entangle my contract negotiations with the awards.” Remuneration is not the key negotiating factor, as Fala indicated that salary increases at TVB are not too high. Creds: Oncc
Damn, hope she stays. She ain't been on any recent series lately (from what my memory serves). Last one I remember was the one with Roger Kwok and Sharon Chan in it
