Thursday, June 07, 2007 Hong Kong TVB Housewives Celebrate with Red Wine and Liver Pate TVB series "The Family Link" has pulled in some good ratings and some of the cast mmbers in the show, Sheren Tang, Kiki Sheung, Al Wai and Cecilia Yip paid for a celebration at a French restaurant in Central with red wine and duck liver pate. Having previously complained about her role, Cecilia was in better spirits and was drinking away all night, getting so high that she was trying to get others to drink with her. She says she never imagined that the ratings would do so well and this is down to everyone's hard work and commitment to their work and also the teamwork shown. She hopes that there will be a sequel with the original team and go on to two or three series like the foreign shows. The show has pulled in ratings averaging 34 points and peaking at 38 points. Kiki is very happy about this and jokes that she will be very happy if a sequel is filmed. "I hope that the company will film more series about normal citizens, because this will spark up conversation and people will be happy watching it. The story doesn't always have to be about arguing, you can have some warmth and reality in there." Kiki has won lots of opportunities to do more work thanks to the show's popularity. "I have received many jobs of openings and stage apperances, some are even in the golden week of July 1st. The fees are quite high, with one job being six figures, so if I get a few more of those, then I will have a seven figure sum! (You have made more money?) It's ok, it's a bonus." Sheren's 'husband' Michael Tse was busy filming so he could not attend and she laughed: "Men are like that, he has to film and make money. I told him I would have a good time because John Chiang would be with me." As for Kiki's wish for a sequel, Sheren says: "It was very hard for me holding my daughters, so next time I would like to play a single person. Maybe a different genre would be more attractive for me." Talking of the rumours between Michael Miu and Charmaine Sheh that have emerged after filming for "The Drive of Life", Sheren laughs: "I joked with Michael today, when it is his birthday, I will team up with our 'daughter' Toby Leung to buy him a bunch of flowers for him. He says he has never even given her a flower, I don't think she has even had a grain of pollen." credits: tvbspace.
