On Tuesday, TVB gathered nearly 100 of its most popular artists to attend a press conference for the company’s new digital streaming platform “Big Big Channel”, where TVB artists can upload their own self-directed videos for their fans to watch online. Artists who attended the press con included Wayne Lai (黎耀祥), Moses Chan (陳豪), Ruco Chan (陳展鵬), Kristal Tin (田蕊妮), Kenneth Ma (馬國明), Vincent Wong (王浩信), Priscilla Wong (黃翠如), Tracy Chu (朱千雪), and more. The app, which will be released for beta on June 23, allows TVB artists to release their own videos for live broadcast online, giving them the opportunity to interact with their fans more closely through a different digital platform. The app also has a system where fans can send virtual “hearts” and “flowers” to their idols, which can be another source of income for the artist. Samantha Ko (高海寧), a self-professed foodie, will consider broadcasting videos about her lifestyle, giving her fans tips on how to stay fit without having to sacrifice delicious food. She has also thought about asking her father and brother for help, saying, “My father makes jewelry for a living. I think the fans will be interested in that. I don’t know anything about designing, but my younger brother does. Maybe I can get them to create a piece of jewelry from scratch!” Eliza Sam (岑麗香) said she may give her fans some tips on her weight lost regime. She is also not against the idea of inviting her husband, Joshua, to appear in a video with her. “He watches a lot of videos online. Maybe I can get him to help me to my makeup for a video!” The Big Big channel will be released for the worldwide public on July 23, 2017. Creds: Oncc
