    For year 2007, TVB drama 'Heart of Greed' that was to become the hot topic in town and the highest viewership ratings naturally reaped rewards in terms of revenue for the artiste in the show. But the two who made the most money was "Couple" Bernice Liu & Moses Chan.
    Due to her natural sex appeal in addition to rumours speculating her and Moses dating, loads of work started pouring in. With an overwhelming revenue of 5.3 million yuan, together with Moses's 4 million yuan, she claimed the throne for 'Best Actress'.

    Ranking List: Revenue refers to income artiste make outside of TVB. Does not include monies from filming TVB series.


    Top Spot: Bernice Liu - Revenue of 5.3 million yuan
    In addition to her good looks and her partnership with Moses Chan as a 'Couple' in the public eyes, her previous fee for a show of 150,000 yuan have now surged to 200,000 yuan.
    No wonder Bernice had the courage to delay signing the extention of her contract with TVB.

    Series:Steps / Devil's Disciples / The Brink of Law / The Slicing of Demons
    Advertisement : 5 × 460,000 - 2.3 million yuan

    Activities : about 40 × average fee of 40,000 - 1.6 million yuan



    Second Spot: Charmaine Sheh - Revenue of 4.25 million yuan
    As the TVB's 'First Sister', her fee is naturally high but revenue thru series, stage appearance and 'Branding' activities have reduced significantly.

    Series: Drive of Life / Word Twister's Adventure
    Movie:Lady Iron Chef - 250,000 yuan
    Advertisement : 2 × 750,000 - 1.5 million yuan
    Stage : 5 × 100,000 - 500,000 yuan
    Activities : 25 × average price of 80,000 - 2 million yuan



    Third Spot: Suzanna Kwan - Revenue of 3.85 million yuan
    Excelling in role of the villian in 'Heart of Greed', Suzanna was awarded with the 'Most Favourite Character' award. With TVB recently holding their own concerts, they will definitely not pass off Suzanna's capabilities.

    Series: Heart of Greed
    Heart of Greed Concert : 2 shows - 800,000 yuan

    Fifth Spot: Shirley Yeung - Revenue of 2.19 million yuan
    Although 'frozen' by TVB for exactly a year without any roles in series, it was a blessing in disguise as she had more time and opportunities to make even more money. All along, advertisers greatly welcome Shirley's good figure and want her in their ad.

    The Brink of Law
    Movie : Kung Fu Mahjong 3, The Final Duel - 100,000 yuan

    Bernice is at the top but she need to work more compare to Charmine. Charmine better in terms of load against profit.

    I think Bernice earns from other revenues besides acting. She attends many functions. And with a body like hers, I'm not surprised why she's earning so much
