Astro On Demand Special Artistes Appearance
TVB Stars Showed Up At Malaysia To Meet With Local Fans
Following the huge success of the award-winning megahit Rosy Business in 2009, TVB proudly
presents a brand new indirect sequel No Regrets in celebration of its 43rd birthday. The drama will
premiere in Hong Kong TVB Jade and Malaysia TV channel Astro On Demand(AOD) and on 18th
Oct at the same time. In order to further promote this hotly-anticipated grand production, TVB artistes
and characters from the series Lai Yiu Cheung, Fala Chen and Pierre Ngo, were invited to attend a
Special Artistes Appearance in Malaysia to meet with local fans.
The event was held in Kualar Lumpur on the 1st and 2nd of October, 2010. The artistes started off their
fully-packed tour with a press conference at Pyramid Tower Hotel to meet with local media. Numerous
reporters crowded the event venue and welcomed the artistes with nonstop blinking flashlights and
interview questions. During the press conference, the artistes also launched MY AOD Favourites 2010, an
online campaign voting for the favourite TVB artistes and drama series of AOD customers, organised by
AOD and MY FM and supported by TVB.
The artistes then hurried to the next on-ground event at Sunway Pyramid and Berjaya Times Square
respectively. The entire venue was already filled with eager fans. Lai Yiu Cheung dressed in a pair of
casual slacks matched with a fitted light grey vest appeared along side the dazzling Fala Chen and
the new-rising Pierre Ngo. The renowned artistes from Hong Kong came to share their experiences
from the shooting of No Regrets. Enthusiastic fans greeted them a warm welcome, the entire arena
was filled with hand waving frantically in the air, poster boards and shout outs.
The artistes also invited audiences to participate in playing games with them. Not only were they
given the chance to win fabulous prizes, they were able to take side by side pictures with their
favorite idols as well! Lai’s acting skills is highly recognized by audiences worldwide, and the local
audiences are rooting for him to win the Best Lead Actor Award again in this Anniversary Award!
All three artistes sang until their heart content. Pierre’s soothing voice and amazing singing skills
awed the crowd much that they shouted so loud on the top of their lungs! The entire atmosphere of the
place was extremely hyped up!
TVB and Astro have been striving to deliver the top quality Chinese TV drama programmes to Malaysia
audiences since the launch of the Astro On Demand(AOD) service in 2007. Throughout the years, the
simulcast of Hong Kong’s TVB Jade Channel dramas and the huge response to the related star campaigns
have gained many loyal viewers and have increased the public awareness of AOD.
