Fala Chen Records 'Heart of Greed' for her Parents Fala Chen took part in an event for Hollywood Plaza's Bow Tie Festival yesterday, where she created her own bow tie. Talking of father's day, Fala says that in the past back in the States, she would go fishing with her father. Now she is in Hong Kong, she cannot celebrate with him, but she will be sending him a denim cap as a gift. Asked if her parents have been watching "Heart of Greed" in America, Fala indicates that her parents live in Atlanta, where there are not many Chinese people, so they cannot watch it. As a result she has been recording every episode and sending them over to her parents to watch. So what do they think of her? Fala says: "They say it is quite good, but they like watching everyone else more, such as Lee Si Kei." She also says that her parents don't really understand Cantonese, so they have to read the subtitles. Fala says that her mother told her about her little gestures, like her blinking and this made her look a little unnatural, and Fala did not realise this before. So do her parents feel she does not have sufficient screentime? Fala says: "They did not cut any of my scenes, maybe there are too many storylines in this show, so they never really concluded my characters romances. Moreover the focus was on the inheritance battles." As for the audience response that her character was a little surplus to requirements, she says: "It was okay. I feel that I was very happy filming this series and it was a great achievement, because I learned a lot of things and the process was very important. This series seemed to really bring me into the industry." Source: Takungpao
i heard that she and linda chung have a tense rivalry or something like that because they have the same manager but fala seems to "steal" all of the small stuff like commercials and all that by accepting a lower salary for each project so.. i don't know.
