7/3 News on Silence from Taiwan


Po En Hui get paid NT$400,000 an episode to act deaf and mute
Request a kitchen for cooking for coming to Taiwan to shoot the drama

July 3, 2005 Taiwan Apple Daily
Reported by Zhang Zhe Ming, Taipei

Angie Chai's new idol drama "Silence" is soon to start shooting. Po En Hui who played Lian Sheng in the Korea drama "Jewel in the Palace" will be the lead actress. She will arrive in Taiwan on July 10. With an episode of NT$400,000, she sets the record as the highest paying Korean actress shooting Taiwan dramas. Paid as a super star, her only request is to live in an apartment of three bedrooms and two living rooms. The apartment must be equipped with a kitchen, so her accompanied assistant can cook Korean dishes.

She acted a kind, timid, silly palace maid working in the royal kitchen in "Jewel in the Palace." She will challenge the role of a deaf and mute mixed blood of Chinese and Korean parents in "Silence". Angie Cai likes her large bright and intelligent eyes, and will let her eyes speak for herself. To facilitate her working in Taiwan, she has started taking Chinese lessons. There will be a sign language teacher to instruct her after she arrives in Taiwan.

Her entourage includes an assistant, a hair and make up artist, a stylist, and an interpreter. All will live together. She is not extravagant, neither does she make too many special requests. Her only fear is that she is not used to the food, so the place she lives must be equipped with a Kitchen to allow her assistant to prepare food for her. To be closer to the Taiwan living style, the interpreter she hires is a Korean studyed in Taiwan.

Andy Hui gets paid half price

She will leave her home town for three months. She will first stay in Taiwan for three weeks, then shoot the drama in the Da Lian city of China for a month, and then return to Taiwan. In the drama, she and her mother live in Taiwan after her parents divorced. Her character is kind and optimistic. She will have a complicated love story with the lead actor, the second generation of an entrepreneur, played by Zhou Yu Min (Zaizai).

Both she and Zaizai will be paid as high as NT$400,000 per episode, breaking the record of Cai Lin's US$10,000 per episode which was about NT$340,000 one and half years ago. The drama is co-produced with a Hong Kong production firm. Another lead actor, Andy Hui, is paid at a discount, NT$200,000 an episode. Because the talent fees for the three stars have already come up to $NT1 million, the production cost per episode will reach NT$3 millions.

Does anyone know what the plot of this series is going to be?

[novemberbaby]

I am looking forward to this. I liked Park Eun Hye in "Dae Jang Geum" and Angie Cai has good taste to choose her. I hope the plot is not going to be like Eun Hye being really cheery despite her defects and that ZaiZai admires her for that. That concept is overrated. Anyhow, I still want to see it. Thanks for the news!

Park Eun-hye and Vic Chou work together, love sparks

"Lian Sheng" Park Eun-hye and "Zai Zai" Vic Chou's new drama "Silence" will be called "Shen Qing Mi Ma" (directly translated as Love Code/Password). Yesterday Park Eun-hye arrived in Taiwan bringing with her more than 100 sets of clothing, hoping to create some new "sparks" with ZZ.

For the new drama "Shen Qing Mi Ma" Park Eun-hye arrived in Taiwan yesterday afternoon. About 30 fans were at the airport. Because she'll be staying in Taiwan for a while Park Eun-hye brought 15 suitcases. Besides over 100 sets of clothing, the majority is Korean food in case she can't get use to Taiwan's food. The drama crew helped her rent a apartment with 3 bedrooms and 2 living rooms. The only request Park Eun-hye has is that there must be a kitchen so that she can cook.

Tomorrow she'll be attending a "'Silence' Afternoon Tea Meet" to meet Taiwan's media. In the drama she'll be involved in an intense triangle relationship with ZZ and Andy Hui. For this drama Park Eun-hye has started learning Chinese while in Korea. After arriving in taiwan, the manufacturing unit arranged a Chinese teacher for her. It's Park Eun-hye's first time coming to Taiwan. She laughingly said that she only saw Taipei's scenery through "Meteor Garden." Among F4, she has only met Jerry Yan. As for ZZ, who she'll be working with, Park Eun-hye is looking forward to meeting him. As for ZZ, he's only seen Park Eun-hye through "Jewel in the Palace" and he praised her acting skills.

Song Hye-gyo just left Taiwan and was criticized as being "da pai" and "hard to handle." Also coming from Korea, Park Eun-hye didn't put on any airs. She only brought 4 staff members with her. They are: her manager, bao mu, make-up artist, and stylist. She was nice to the media. When she saw the media at the airport she stood still for them to take pictures.

kewl another series for Zai Zai
can't wait to see it
the female lead looks pretty in the pic
isn't he the only one out of F4 who hasn't come out with a movie?

[Aru-chan]

I love Hua Ze Lei ... but I fell in love with Lui Yen Feng more ... then came Chen Ling! OMG! He's like the ultimate MAN! Until now, GOD MARS still haunts my dreams ... Zaizai really is such a great actor. You cannot help but fall madly in love with the characters he portray. I can't wait for this new series. I just wish the lead girl could live up to what our Zaizai has to offer

isn't he the only one out of F4 who hasn't come out with a movie?

YES! He has yet to film a movie of his own ... but since he is the best actor among the f4 boys, they might be having a hard time finding the right movie for him.

I think he should do a comedy cause he has this funny adorable expression on his face whenever a scene calls for his character to be funny

[*tina*strawberry...]

wait so when you say, he hasn't filmed a movie of his own...does that mean he's never been the director or producer or something like that?

In the drama Park Eun-hye is a mixed, half Chinese and half Korean, girl names "Zhao Shen Shen." Because her Chinese still isn't that good it is written that she suffers from aphemia. She is stuck between ZZ and Andy Hui and depends on her watery eyes to express her emotions. She has never met ZZ before but she's seen "Meteor Garden." When asked who in F4 is the type she likes best, she immediately replied, "It's best if all 4 are mixed together."

Angie Cai revealed that Park Eun-hye took the initiative and asked about ZZ's acting habits, for example if he's easy to get along with. When she knew that ZZ "doesn't talk unfamilar people," she got really worried. So Angi immediately said, "Even if you guys are familar with each other he won't be able to understand what your saying."

-------------------

Because there are no plans for dubbing, Park Eun-hye is written to be a girl who suffers from aphemia. For the majority of the drama she'll be doing sign language. Park Eun-hye is currently learning sign language and Mandarin.

Yesterday she said 5 sentences in Chinese: "I'm good," "I'm Po En Hui," "Tastes very good," "See you tomorrow," and "Today is July 12th."

Silence isn't Xiang Ju Yi Ke
Posted: June 5, 2005

Because of the popularity of "Jewel in The Palace." The actress Po En Hui who portrayed Lian Sheng rose with the tide. Because Po En Hui saw F4's "Meteor Garden" in Korea, when Angie Cai went to Korea to talk with Po En Hui in April, Po En Hui mentioned that she hoped to work with ZZ in her first overseas drama. So Angie is trying to get them to work together.

In addition "Silence" has been mistaken from the outside world as another drama adapted from a Japanese manga entitled "Xiang Ju Yi Ke" (Maison Ikkoku) that Angie wanted to buy. Yesterday Angie cleared the misunderstanding and said that these are 2 different dramas. As for "Xiang Ju Yi Ke" Angie hasn't been able to buy the copyright yet.

Michelle has determined to not renew her contract with TVB long before it was due (june 2005). Michelle is currently busy looking for a management company that could help her enter the mainland market... the article says that Michelle is always hard-selling herself to potential management companies. She praises herself for being trilingual (english, mandarin and cantonese) and always bring up how wonderful she was for being one of the host for TVB's Olympics show last year... Michelle was approach by Siu Ting Yut (Rain Lee's rumoured bf) to participate in his upcoming modern series costarring Zai Zai (F4 member). Michelle demands for $50,000 per episode. Michelle demands more than Gigi Lai and Jessica Hsuan, noting that Jessica and Gigi are the 'fai dan" - "A list actress of TVB"... when Michelle is not even up to par with them in terms of acting, fame, etc. Mr. Siu ting Yut decides to replace Michelle with Annie Man Chun Han (actress whom he just signed under his management company). According to Michelle's current popularity and fame, she could easily demand for $30,000 per episode (this amount is still considered a lot compared to what she currently makes). The article says that if Michelle keeps demanding such high amount, it will be too late before she realizes it.

ZZ was originally scheduled to settle on apparel with Korean actress Park Eun-hye for the new drama "Silence Shen Qing Mi Ma" but because he got into an accident it was cancelled.

Producer Angie Cai said that ZZ told her, "He said that the accident isn't anything big, he can work like normaly today and tomorrow." The manufacturing unit is afraid that he's still in shock so they decided to pick another date to pick out clothing. Park Eun-hye, who picked out clothes herself, expressed that she's worried about his safety.

Angie: "In this movie the leads constantly brush past each other. I never thought that a dramatic development wouldn't happend before the drama started filming." Andy Hui was suppose to arrive in Taiwan today but because his passport has expired, it delayed his flight. Facing with all kinds of situations, the drama crew is holding meetings and changing times, a bit caught off guard.

ZZ, Da S, Xu Wei Lun appear and refuse to talk about their love life
One goes for costume fitting, one promotes cosmetics, one films drama at a night market

Posted: July 16, 2005

ZZ and Da S have already started getting into their work, Xu Wei Lun went to Shi Lin night market to film "E Nan Zhai Ji Dian" last night. On the 14th and 15th ZZ met with Korean actress Park Eun-hye for Angie Cai's new idol drama "Shen Qing Mi Ma." He also discussed the script and his role with the director. Yesterday Da S left for Shanghai to a Avon fashion party. The two's moods aren't bad.

ZZ will be cooperating with Park Eun-hye and Andy Hui in "Shen Qing Mi Ma." The night before yesterday he went to Comic to meet with Park Eun-hye, the director and other staff members. On the outside he doesn't seem to be injured at all and he isn't as downcast as the outside world says. Anyway, he was really into his work. Because he'll be acting as a businessman he calmly expressed his thoughts to the director, "Should I act solemn or a bit sarcastic?" He's worried that he won't be able to act out the power of a businessman.

At yesterdays costume fitting ZZ received unanimous praises, "So incredibly handsome!" He's also concerned about Park Eun-hye learning sign language and encourages her to keep up the good work.

Producer Angie Cai observed from the side as for whether or not a love spark can suddenly happen between ZZ and Da S, "To be honest, it's not likely. They are like brother and sister, they became friends after 'Meteor Garden.'" As for Valen Hsu also privately asked staff members and possibilities are not big.

Da S flew to Shanghai yesterday to attend an Avon activity in Shanghai's Xin Tian Di's Ark Bar. She wore something colorful and was beautiful from all angles. Whether is was getting pictures taken by reporters at the airport or receiving a phone call in Shanghai Da S didn't answer any questions relating to her love life but she seemed like she was in a good mood. She said happily, "Every girl loves to be pretty, colorfull clothes makes me sexy, charming."

Last night Xu Wei Lun appeared to film TVBS-G's "E Nan Zhai Ji Dian". TVBS programming department's manager Liu Fu Ting said that ZZ used to visit the set. He/She has seen him twice and hasn't said anything to the outside world.

ZaiZai shows up for "ding zhuang"

Posted: July 16, 2005
The day after the accident, ZaiZai finally shows up in the office if Comic Ritz for the “ding zhuang” (settling on the costumes) of his new drama “Silence – Shen Qing Mi Ma”. The outside world says that he had a change of heart, that he was unfaithful, and also has severe depression. All these didn’t affect his mood, he still happily tried on the costumes, and would also often joke with the staff. His manager Chai Zhi Ping (Angie Chai) yesterday also exonerated her beloved protégé: “These times who doesn’t have depression - even I have it!”
Chai Zhi Ping avoids the rumours for her protégé
The rumours have been incessant after ZaiZai’s car accident. First it was rumoured that he lost concentration because he has broken up with Xu Wei Lun and was not in a good mood. After that it’s rumoured that Da S and Xu Ru yun is his new partner. Someone even revealed that ZaiZai already had depression early on and has secretly been going to see a psychiatrist for over a year. Yesterday when manager Chai Zhi Ping heard it she laughed out loud. “I also have depression! These days there are too much pressure at work. I think anyone in our company have depression! It’s no big deal.” But she also emphasized that she really has never heard ZaiZai say that he has a problem with depression.

Yesterday afternoon at 2 pm, ZaiZai, accompanied by his assistants, went to the office situated at East MinSheng Road to settle on clothing for his new series, a marked difference from the way he looked two days ago in the police precinct apologizing because of the car accident. He had a smile on his face from start to end, no trace of anything unusual. To try for the best results, the director and producer asked ZaiZai again and again to change into different clothes, which he took in stride, changing clothes and fitting for measurement, walking out of the office only at 4:30 pm.

Zhou Yu Min’s mood very excited
Asked how is ZaiZai’s mood? He only smiled and waved his hand. The staff said, “You can hear in the way he talk if he is not in a good mood. But we spoke with him, and his mood is constantly very good, there’s no unhappy mood.”

As for the inseparable and confused relationship intertwining ZaiZai and Da S, Xu Ru Yun, Chai Zhi Ping said, “I’m not clear on his private life.”

Andy Hui takes photos for souvenir, Lian Sheng scared
Forced to stay inside because of typhoon
Posted: July 19, 2005

Because of typhoon Haitang's, not only are Taiwan artists effected but overseas artists are too. Vic Chou (Zai Zai), Andy Hui plus "Lian Sheng" Park Eun-hye were suppose to hold a press conference for the new drama "Shen Qing Mi Ma" yesterday at 3pm in Taipei. Although it was cancelled because of the typhoon, Andy Hui and Park Eun-hye can only stay and rest in their hotel rooms.

When Andy arrived in Taiwan the day before yesterday, the typhoon was already very strong. He didn't let this opportunity slip and immediate took photo for souvenir. Andy said that there are typhoons in HK too but they aren't as powerful as Haitang. That's why he took pictures. Yesterday's activity was cancelled and he couldn't go outside so he stayed in his hotel the entire day and tried different images for the drama. The remaining time he'd eat and drink.

As for Park Eun-hye, she was originally suppose to attend classes together with ZZ and Andy and talk about their roles. But seeing the strength of the typhoon, she was scared. To avoid scaring her, the drama crew cancelled all arrangements. She laughingly said that staying at the hotel and resting can help her become energetic.

Park Eun-hye stocks up on food and studies script

Posted: July 19, 2005

The press conference for the TV series "Silence Shen Qing Mi Ma" was cancelled yesterday. Korean star Park Eun-hye earned a day off because of the typhoon. Although typhoons exist in Korea, but the strong winds and rain of Haitang made her really nervous. She especially went to the supermarket to stock up on food. She and her manager stayed inside her apartment to study the script.

Acts as a mute girl
Two days before yesterday Park Eun-hye and Vic Chou (Zai Zai) met for the first time when they attended classes together. The two discussed their roles through a translator and used gestures to try to act out the drama. ZZ is the son of a family that owns their own business. She's a mute girl. The 2 grew up together but lost contact with each other after they grew up. They don't recognize each other when they meet again. She also has a complicated triangle relationship with Andy.

The storyline of "Silence ~ Shen Qing Mi Ma"

posted by peggypeggy

(Not sure if this is true, peggypeggy didn't say where she got this information from)

Thirty-episode-long Taiwan idol drama “Shen Qing Mi Ma” will begin shooting at the end of July, finishing it by the year’s end, and will be released next March. The production team will move to Korea for on location filming in mid-August. "Shen Qing Mi Ma" is a very touching little gem of a love story. It tells the story of Andy Hui who, because he was too mischievous, mistakenly poisoned and made Lian Sheng mute during his childhood. From that moment on he vowed to take care of her all of her life, and the two of them will have a sort of “puppy love”. After they grew up, Andy Hui committed a crime and went to jail. Lian Sheng, meanwhile, met ZaiZai – a terminally ill man who only has 365 days to live. But it turns out that the two already knew each other from childhood, meeting again after so many missed opportunities. ZaiZai’s became more optimistic and persevering for Lian Sheng, and tries his hardest to get her back from Andy Hui’s arms.

Eun Hye is actually pretty in 18 VS 29. Her character is evil but she is a great actress.

Still looking forward to this series.

I heard they will finish shooting this series at the end of the year and this series will show on march of next year.

This series will also be shooting in South Korea too.

Eun Hye is actually busy, after this series, she had another one in Japan.

[roaceica]

Vic Chou, Park Eun-hye and Andy Hui at "Silence - Shen Qing Mi Ma" press conference

After a week's delay "Silence - Shen Qing Mi Ma," starring ZZ Vic Chou; Park Eun-hye, who gained fame because of "Jewel in the Palace; and Andy Hui, held an official costume fitting press conference yesterday. ZZ: "Hello everyone, I'm ZZ Zhou Yu Min. In 'Silence Shen Qing Mi Ma' I play the son of a rich family."

For Andy Hui and Korean star Park Eun-hye, it's their first time accepting a Taiwan idol drama. Going back and forth between the 2 male leads, people couldn't help but ask Park Eun-hye how she felt.

Andy Hui: "Talk carefully." Park Eun-hye: "Andy Hui has more aptitude than me, he's like a senior to me. I can learn a lot filming with him. And he's also like a bigger brother. At first I didn't know ZZ. I was actually a bit worried. After meeting him I think he's very interesting. He's a very cheerful guy." ZZ: "Don't translate anymore. I'm afraid I'll be hurt when I go home and watch."

Because Andy Hui looks a lot like ZZ's manager, when they met they immediately became friends. When the media asked Andy Hui about his good friend Sammi Cheng returning to work, ZZ immediately came out and blocked them.

ZZ: "What are you doing, what are you doing?" Andy Hui: "Very helpful!" ZZ: "Immediately become friends!" Reporter: "Have you contacted Sammi?" Andy Hui: "Yes, yes. Those reports are nonsense."

ZaiZai distracted while filming romantic scene with Park Eun-Hye
He stays in the air-conditioned car cooling himself; while she is very professional.

http://vicpower.net/asp/UploadFile/2005-7/20057306508800.jpg

After “ZaiZai” Zhou Yu Min’s romance with Da S was exposed, he not only wasn’t very high-spirited as is usually the case when something happy occurs. On the contrary, it was witnessed that he was distracted during work, filming a romantic scene even resulted in a car collision. His co-star Korean actress Partk Eun-Hye, meanwhile, didn’t fear the extreme heat of the sun, her work attitude very serious; the condition of the male and female lead while filming is disparate!

On the afternoon of the 26th, ZaiZai and Park Eun-Hye appeared in Tian Mu to catch up with filming for “Silence ~ Shen Qing Mi Ma”. In a romantic scene filmed inside a Mercedes Benz, although leading man ZaiZai is currently immersed in the midst of the “Da-Zai romance”, when filming emotional scenes however, he didn’t exert even a bit of effort. Reporters witnessed him with Park Eun-Hye inside the car gesticulating with his hands. After that scene, Park Eun-Hye immediately alighted from the car to watch the scene they shot, while he persisted to stay inside the airconditioned Benz cooling himself.

Caused someone to fall while backing up the car

The screenplay intentionally arranged for them to meet an accident, the roof of the Benz covered with spaghetti. Because the weather was hot that day, the spaghetti started to emit a sour flavour. ZaiZai’s expression showed a little bit discomfort, but Park Eun-Hye didn’t even mind. Obviously there’s a vast difference in the work attitudes between the lead actor and actress.

Worse thing is, ZaiZai just recently had an accident in mid-July. Although he was fortunate to emerge unhurt, his $5,000,000 AudiRS6 is almost totally wrecked. And that day while filming, a scene was set for him to back up his Benz. But because he seemed to be distracted at the time, he didn’t notice the passersby and caused an oji-san riding a motorcycle to fall from his bike. The oji-san was so angry he shouted invectives at him, and the whole atmosphere became very awkward.

[8/1]('Silence' news) Megan Lai depends on Angie Chai for clothes

Reporter Wu Pei Hua



Megan Lai plays a rich girl, but her
clothes were all borrowed.

Megan Lai is too stingy, Angie Chai can't stand it any longer? Megan Lai accepted Angie Chai's new drama ¡°Silence¡±, playing the role of a rich girl. Megan Lai said with a laugh, "My whole outfit is borrowed from Chai jie, their price are not cheap at all. Every time I wear them it makes me very worried that I would get them dirty."

Megan Lai doesn't like to wear designer clothes in her private life. Acting in "Silence" she even needed producer Angie Chai's help. She laughs, "A lot of them are little gems found at the bottom of the her storage box, never before worn - not even once, so she lent it to me. Every time I changed into them I dare not move carelessly." Megan Lai meticulously counted the value of the clothes she wore during filming, they would always be worth easily up to a six-digit total, making her "very terrified".

She plays a rich girl onscreen, but off-screen she suffered a lot. Brassy in nature, Megan Lai practices full time every day to be able to act out the role properly - applying proper sitting posture with her chin up and chest out, and talking with her friends in a soft, light voice as much as possible. She said, a bit embarrassed, "I told my friends I'm going to take the path to being more ladylike, but my friends all laughed at me and told me not to joke around anymore."

hi roaceica...ur welcome

yeah that's what this article is going on about.. but i didn't trust apple daily...bcoz from the past news from apple daily they already destroy ZZ's good image......so don't be upset for now...i believe that both of them are professional... nore park eun hye and ZZ...

i believe that ZZ is more professional than that...

well if this news is true but we have to face it...because most probably ZZ still can't stop thinking about the accident..u noe he have to pay millions for the car accident...and plus lately so many news about him and DaS...so he might be so stressed out that's y he get distracted pretty easily...

so don't believe media that easily..especially apple daily

[neptuneswirls]

Is Megan Lai the same girl from MGII and MARS?

[zaizai_f4_only]

yes meegan is the girl act in MG , Love Strom, and Mars
mann she always stays with ZZ

[neptuneswirls]

Whoa, she was in Love Storm too? I'm surprised there aren't rumors about her and ZaiZai floating around. xP

yes meegan is the girl act in MG , Love Strom, and Mars
mann she always stays with ZZ

[yukkei]

megan lai did act in love storm..like ?*tina*strawberry said...she acted as jai jai's girlfriend tina. she appeared in only that one scene, where he brought 'tina' to jia le's party so it would seem that he already has a girlfriend so jia le would stop bothering him.

[Gummi Bear]

I don't understand, if Megan Lai is borrowing clothes does that mean that every actors/actresses have to provide their own clothes at their own expense? I thought that it would be like hollywood where the wardrobe department would provide the clothes to every actor.

If the actor have to provide their own clothes, why does ZZ have to go to costume fitting?
