Oh and one more thing, I just saw/read at that site that Little_Purple_Bell provided and it has pictures of Gillians double. Does anyone know why she has a double for? She's not doing any action scene so I dont see why she would need one.


While filming actors usually have doubles even if they aren't really doing action scenes. I'm not sure why exactly, but it's for back shots. Sometimes they have days where they get the doubles and film their backs!

It's actually pretty good that Gillian gets attend functions alone and perform alone too. 1.gif I hope she sings a different song from "Hover Bird" and "Starlight Amusement Park", so that we'll have another Gillian solo version of another Twins song. infatuated.gif I do hope that EEG does intend to keep Gillian in the singing area. Maybe EEG is making progress on that, but just slow on it along with everything else that's Gillian-related? down.gif You know what I think? EEG probably just needs to find themselves excuses to start promoting Gillian. Many people do need excuses to decept themselves for a motivation to start doing something that they don't exactly want to. EEG obviously favours and wants to promote Charlene more, yet they can't lie to themselves to say that Gillian is talentless and fanless, can they? So they just have to tell themselves that Charlene has a big filming load, so she shouldn't be running around to attend singing functions/ceremonies, so let's just let Gillian go alone, okay? cluebat.gif Then while Gillian is there, she'll sing solo and see how people accept that? The result is no one has any complaints, comments are given that Gillian sang really well, and the cheering was crazy. Just listen to how long people were screaming, "Gillian!" at the end of "Hover Bird". yeah.gif

I can't wait until this music award. Um, is it confirmed that Gillian will be performing solo as well?...most music awards, Twins do return home with awards so hopefully she does.

I guess you are right about EEG. And what is so ironic about everything is: the more EEG restricts Gillian or tries to overshadow Gillian with more promotions invested towards Sa, those bias actions are actually all the right moves or should I say, Gillian always manages to lead no matter what. harhar.gif I guess, people just overall adore Gillian!

Have you guys ever heard fans scream "Twins" unsure.gif publically?? I've only heard fans scream Ah Gui or Ah Sa but often never "Twins" but I do hear fans screaming Ah Gui more too during functions.

I think Gillian does have some action scenes, just not a lot; she'll mostly be working with poison in the series? It is a martial arts series, and isn't Miu Yeurk Lan the only girl in there who doesn't know martial arts? Either way, I don't understand why she has a double either. Gillian has refused to use a double while filming House Of Fury, and the actions in there were probably 10X harder than the ones in this series. blink.gif

Perhaps, the wires are much more difficult to handle in an ancient serial. HOF was filmed in the city with a lot of wire support but the wires in ancient serials require a lot of flying, flipping, and turning with less flexibility. I mean, the ancient era is full of nature with really no guarantees of safety while HOF was modern citylike that had more poles and cushion etc. to catch Gillian if she was to fall or have a NG.

Yeah, but Twin Of Brothers was made at the time of when Ron was just starting to get popular from Triumph in the Skies, so it's not surprising to see Raymond leading over Ron back then since Raymond still had a good position in TVB. Nowadays, I swear if Ron and Raymond were to co-star in another series, the first leading man would definitely be Ron. TVB loves Ron because all those little girls and housewives love him. Raymond is stuck with all those second male lead roles now. I think he got demoted even further down to third male lead in the one he's filming now, but it's true that he has more talents. I can't believe Ron released a CD before Raymond either. To sum it up, why is it that the outgoing one always takes the spotlight from the more mild one? Is that some kind of principle of human nature or something? blink.gif

Well, this is my personal opinion but I think Raymond has been receiving supporting roles lately is because TVB has been mixing him with much older and more experienced stars versus Ron where he hasn't really starred in a serial with the lead leads of TVB yet. Hm, I haven't been catching up on Ray recently but it's obvious that TVB does play favorites too. I too cannot believe that Ron released an album before Ray when Ron cannot sing period. cluebat.gif

As for the outgoing ones...I think that only pertains to HK because elsewhere?...they become annoying instantly after a few times. A lot of international stars are usually the mysteriously silent ones that intrigue the audience with just about any role.

Uh huh, even though Gillian likes to act more, I think she can develop in either one of those industries, but apparently EEG has 'reserved' the ticket to the acting industry for Charlene, so singing's just as good for Gillian. She has performed alone, and there were no revolutions against it, were there? It shows that people can accept Gillian being on stage performing alone. I just hope what we're thinking really is going to happen. The last thing we'd want is for EEG to make up some evil plan of letting Charlene develop on films while they get Gillian to keep the singing area of Twins going, but when Charlene gets her part done in the acting industry, they put Gillian back on hold while Charlene comes out to sing more. *touchwood*

That could likely be the case too, something I'm most afraid might happen but at least we're doing our parts in showing our support by rallying online Gillian Fans to understand a lot of the misperceived issues revolving around the bias treatment.

Does anyone else think that Raymond and Nie Yuan have a bit of resemblance with each other on the looks? Because I looked at a photo of Nie Yuan on his blog wearing modern clothes, and for a split second, I thought he looked like Raymond. blink.gif

Really? Hm, I see no resemblance but both have this courageous, heroic, and fearless aroma to them which is so appealing. loool.gif

I do hope she sings Kindergarten! infatuated.gif It's such a nice song with high notes! Oh, I hope she does! I hope it's not too hard on Gillian to be rushing around to two places with a tight schedule. I highly doubt that Gillian doesn't have any movie offers, but we know how EEG is, so let's not be surprised. The director of BOK has once said that Gillian actually does have a lot of potential with acting, yet within most Twins movies, her quiet and calm characters are just frequently shadowed off by Charlene's usual jolly and outspoken characters and also because everything is always focused on Charlene. <-- Quoted from Director Pang, not me. It's funny because he said that he used to hate watching girls cry, but amazingly he just loves to watch Gillian cry because she can cry so beautifully. dance.gif

I believe it would most likely be Kindergarten since that was the most popular song in their album, The Missing Piece.

Director Pang is so blunt. lmao.gif

The award ceremony is going to be in mando right?

Most likely in Mando since it'll be in Mainland and plus even Cantonese interviews these days, Twins have only been responding in Mandarin.

Yeah. I guess that is what Nie Yuan meant when he stated that he had to film solo scenes so I guess the fake Ching Ling So had to substitute Gillian in some minor scenes that don't show her face. blink.gif

Oh, about the KG MV, my usual computer in which I work on is dead. I don't know why but it shut down on me then now it's in safe mode and won't get out which misconfigures all of my settings including color so I guess the KG MV has been delayed again; sorry. weeping.gif

EEG needs to hire someone with brains to help their company earn more money..Just because they have money now doesn't mean they will if they play the bias game now because everything is changing...Promotion is not the only thing that's going to help them gain fans...talent is getting back on track!!

Did anyone seen the clip of Gillian's "Hover Bird" solo?? I really wanted to see the clip but I can't find it online... weeping.gif

I'm not too fond of Ron pairing with Gillian either, but they've worked together before during the TVB Singers' Anniversary already. If Gillian has a chance to be in a TVB series, she should just get a guest star role that's significant and important to the plot. That way, she can leave a deep impression in on the viewers, yet she doesn't have to spend so much of her time on it. She should also stop acting as "Ah Giu" in all the TVB series she's been in. But I really hope that she'll become what her role was in Triumph in the Skies. Maybe someday we can really hear the media introduce Gillian as is, "Our little singing queen of the music industry, Gillian Chung, has arrived.........." as they said on Triumph in the Skies, but it ruins it all when we see all the banners in the background which have, "Twins", written on it. n_thumbdown.gif

Hmm...really..they worked together?? I might have seen it but I guess Ron just wasn't wearing enough sparkles to let me notice him happy.gif' If EEG just gives Gillian the chance to promote her..I think the line "Our little singing queen of the music industry, Gillian Chung, has arrived.........." could happen... infatuated.gif

I agree...Even the characters in the movies are more serious. Who wouldn't be interested in the mysterious silent ones?? It's like figuring out a riddle and piecing a puzzle together...I guess Hong Kong people loves things more happy and light-hearted and Gillian's type is too hard/"hot" for them to handle..haha loool.gif

Have you guys ever heard fans scream "Twins" unsure.gif publically?? I've only heard fans scream Ah Gui or Ah Sa but often never "Twins" but I do hear fans screaming Ah Gui more too during functions.

Well, if Twins aren't getting any awards, knowing EEG, neither of them would even attend. Hmm.... I'm not sure if Gillian will be performing solo. Usually when an artiste gets an award, the award ceremony will let them perform though. Mainland actually lets the artiste do the whole song; whereas, most HK award shows just let the artiste do half of the song. I think she probably will perform; EEG artistes are rarely, or even never, left of performing during award shows. If EEG has the heart to show Gillian's singing abilities, then I'd think that'd be the reason of sending her there alone and actually perform. We've never seen it done in the early years of Twins though. It's either they're both there, or they're not there. Things have really gotten to be different with Twins over different aspects.

I, for one, have never heard, "Twins!" being called. happy.gif' Like you, I only hear "Sa!" or "Giu!" It's so ironic that Twins are the group that many people think should stick together and things like threatening letters were sent to EEG because of a consideration of a disband, yet fans don't call out "Twins!" as a whole, but yell out "Sa!" or "Giu!" individually; I hear "Giu!" being shouted more as well; sometimes "Sa!" isn't even shouted. Other groups are called by their group names. Soler fans call out "Soler!" for them; even Cookies fans called out, "Cookies!" and not "Stephy!" "Theresa!" "Kary!" nor "Miki!" alone, and they've already disbanded. :lame:

I hope it's Kindergarten, if not, just don't be a repeat of Hover Bird or Starlight Amusement Park. I want to hear a different solo of Gillian's.

That's too bad about the KG MV. I hope your computer will work properly again soon because I bet that KG MV's gonna turn out awesome just like your other MVs!

Who is in charge of deleting anyways? You're right, the majority of those posts make sense don't see why they're in the trash can. dry.gif

I mean, there are other threads that have more nonsense to erase.

Hm, this post might get erased too. Whaha.

Anyways...here are some pictures xlai-wong-baox posted at TC which were from EStarSky.com, the link provided by Little_Purple_Bell but my computer couldn't load all the pictures so they're new to me. Just wanted to share them here to give fans an update on how Gillian is doing incase like mine, their computers can't load Chinese sites too well.





If these are screencaps, there must be some videos out there on behind the scenes stuff.
Reminiscence
In my opinion, there is no need to compare Gillian to Charlene because obviously, Gillian exceeds Charlene in almost every aspect, except the hypocritical part. Her talents will definitely be recognized even if EEG does not want that to happen. After 49 Days, Gillian's acting abilities have surely improved and probably after her upcoming series, things will change for the better....or at least, I highly hope so.

And yes, it does anger me that EEG promotes Charlene at a faster and more favorable rate, but that does not mean Gillian will be left in the cold. The future is a distant thing and no one will know what'll happen. All I know is that I will always support Gillian and highly praise her in everything she does. I mean, that is in fact what a good fan should do. lol.

I used to love seeing Twins together, but now, I kinda hope that Gillian would go solo. Yes, there are ups and downs to this decision, but we all know that if she and Charlene were to go separate ways, it would be better for Gillian because then the Twins image would have died and Gillian can start anew. But then I know EEG would just go on promoting Charlene. But I seriously think that if Gillian were to become a full-time actress, she would definitely succeed. I prefer her acting over singing. But either way, I still love the adorable Ah-Gill^^


QUOTE
Here's an article that Nie Yuan wrote that I translated; it's about filming Ching Ling So (Gillian)'s dying scene.

As soon as Gillian finally reported back to the crew, the director and I started to relax, for I finally don't have to be 'talking to myself' during certain scenes; our director can also smoothly finish the last one of the grand scenes of the series before moving on to our next filming location. The last one of the grand scenes is no other than 'The Death Of Ching Ling So.'

'Ching Ling So' is an out of the ordinary kind of girl when compared to all the other girls that JinYong has written before. Comparing looks, she's not as pure and gorgeous as "Wong Yu Yin' or 'Siu Long Nui' is, and when comparing cuteness, she doesn't appear to have the mild and naive characteristic as 'Kwok Fu' or 'Siu Chiu' do. She doesn't have extraordinary martial arts, and doesn't come from a famous martial arts family. Even though she is clever and smart with a calm and concealed personality, Ching Ling So is just an ordinary girl who can't be more ordinary. Looking at this girl, even if she were to step right infront of your eyes, I'm afraid she would be ignored by the eyes of human nature. Could this girl really be the female lead of a romance story? How did this girl make everyone cry for her uncontrollably? When speaking about "A Chinese Odyssey", Stephen Chow has once said, "Behind everything that is able to send a sense of touching towards others is none other than the word, 'love'." The fairy, ZiHa, was like this, and naturally, same goes for Ching Ling So.

The first time watching "Flying Fox And Snowy Mountain", I was quite idiotic back then. I was enhanced by things like "Knife Techniques Of The Wu Family" and completely ignoring the romance in between. Of course at that time, I didn't know that years later, I would become an actor; therefore, having no idea that I would've became 'Wu Fei' either. The most updated filming plan was just given to me yesterday. I had many scenes to film today. There are fighting scenes, simple scenes, even scenes of where I have to be hung by wires, and the words 'The Death Of Ching Ling So' had been included within the bunch, yet I didn't especially take notice of it.

I have once joked, "Gillian is the most beautiful 'Ching Ling So' within dated history!" Yet the touching facts of 'Ching Ling So' has never been associated with the word 'looks'. Gillian has understood that. Because of this fact, Gillian has never taken her beauty as a tool while acting; she even tries to simplify how she looks. She puts a lot of her acting within her eyes. With this point, I'm guessing is when she truly and completely connects with the character 'Ching Ling So'. I have memorized 'Wu Fei''s lines to heart already, yet no matter how many times I've imagined of how this scene will go, it didn't compare one bit to how shocking it was during the actual scene. I could never find out, if there really was such a person named 'Wu Fei', how he would've felt at that time. But I can say for, when I looked at her, and saw how she was suffering from the pain of poison beacuse of me, seeing how her life was running away as if it were quicksand, my heart felt like it was being sliced open. I started hating on her; I hated how she was determined to save my life, yet I could do nothing about it. I hated how she appeared to be so strong, yet she's already been hurt by the effects of love a long time ago. I hate how she fortifies with each step she takes and figures everything out before taking action; I hate her even more for making my life so solemn and grave, yet I have no chance of rejecting it. She silently leaned against me; she was so petite and weak with her pale face. I started thinking, "Without her, how lonely am I going to be?"

Just when the director yelled, "Cut!", Gillian and I already had a face full of tears, and sweating heavily too. There are time of when I suddenly wake up at night due to a frightening dream, I would need several moments to bring myself back, and then I would silently rejoice to myself, "It's good that it was only a dream!"


LOL. Seriously, just reading that made me wanna cry. Nie Yuan's words are just too heart-wrenching. Hearing these compliments and remarks, we can all tell how dedicated both of them are to their work. How much effort and soul they had placed upon their characters. I now seriously want to watch this series and then just skip straight to the scene where Gillian's character is about to confront death and how much Nie Yuan and his character wants to protect her from it.

His comparison of Jin Yong's other female leads to Gillian's Ching Ling So is so prefect. Though on the outside there is nothing particularly outstanding nor appealing, Ching Ling So is a soul filled with passion and a heart for love and love alone. No wonder this character has always been favored among the other female characters even if her abilities and appearance has nothing for anyone to consider. The one true important and remarkable thing that people seem to associate her with is love. It just makes me so happy that Gillian had received such a role and I would really love to see how wonderfully and beautifully she can portray such a lovable, yet tragic role. *sigh* But such a long wait in order to watch it ><;

lemme get this straight. i'm not a newbie but instead typing under an alias. u can reply to my comment peacefully but then no harsh comments alright?
i'm happy and drop dead proud to say that i AM a gillian fan and will also forever be one. Besides i MOSTLY agree with the arguments you guys put up and by the way, i read everything from page one to page 28 so i DID NOT miss out anything. At the same time, i also did purchase mani's book and scrutinised every page carefully. After scrutinising the book, i wanna disagree with some peoples' comments. I also have a disclaimer to make: its not that i am supporting charlene here, but just want to clarify some things
1)mani DOES NOT loathe gillian. Look, you guys think that forcing gillian to drink soup is an act of cruelty and kept attacking mani abt it. But drinking soup i good for health and since people always mention that gillian's health is not so great, therefore she should really drink soup to make herself healthier. Besides, forcing someone to drink soup is NOT an act of abuse. My mom always do that to me, so does that make her evil? obviously not.
2)gillian and yumiko went out for a late night escape n lied to mani about it. so its gillian's fault isn't it? At that time gillian had already signed a contract with EEG and she should abide by their rules. Beside, she was just a newbie and about to be pushed out into the market for the public to see and if give people the impression that she goes to pubs, i don't think people would think very highly of her. So reprimanding gillian and yumiko about this entirely reasonable
3)That thousand word letter/essay that gillian wrote to mani was written willingly all by herself. It was not like Mani was holding a knife to her throat and forcing her to write it. Some people should go to www.twinsfans.net/bbs/ and go under the magazine section to read the book. The members had helpfully posted all those twins related sections online. Yumiko did not write the 1000 word essay was not because there was biasism but instead, she was just too unsensitive and uncaring towards this type of things to care about her reputation. But anyway, her reputation was already not so good, flirting with any guys in sight.
4)When mani mention about gillian crying when she was unable to go to her idol, Aaron Kwok's, concert, she was just simply presenting to us a different side of gillian instead of the girl that media love describing as cool and aloof. she just wanted to show us that gillian is not always that mature and that she can be rather childish if she wants to. I bet those people who are not so familiar with with gillian will think that gillian is slightly colder and distant than charlene, but imagine when the reader of mani's book read about gillian kicking up a cute childish fuss, his opinion will change right?
5)In the end, mani did gave in to gillian and let her go to the concert. But now you guys are slamming for saying that she just did this to "show the world that she is a nice manager". I beg to differ. Gillian have a concert at australia the next day and everyone knows that last minute preparation is extremely important as something unexpected may happen that will ruin the whole concert, wouldn't it? twins have an abnormally tight schedule and i think we should already kowtow to the gods when mani let gillian watch the concert and i'm sure that gillian is already extremely thankful that mani had let her take an hours' break and watch her idol.
6)Also, some people mention about mani commenting that gillian was ugly and so on blah blah and saying that gillian was not all that attractive. But when i read the book, i did not notice mani mentioning this and when she commented on her first impression on gillian, all she said was that gillian was rather nice looking and slightly on the chubby side, but not once did mani mention that gillian was ugly. What's worse, she describe charlene's face as a pizza with freckles, isn't that more cruel??
7)last but not least, the test singing part. mani mention that when she let gillian test try the first time, gillian sang slightly out of tune and she was not at all impressed. Then mani also mentioned that she give newcomers a second chance and gillian made vast improvements. Isn't that good? But horror of horrors, some people argue that mani's "gracious" offer was fake and that she was just acting nice thats all. If she was really that eveil, i bet she would have kicked gillian out straight after the first try, gillian was an unsigned newbie at that time, why would EEG waste money and time listening to her resing? After all, mani had mentioned that charlene did not do any much better, in fact, from the tone that she use while writing, i conclude that charlene was even worse off than gilllian.
DISCLAIMER: all this argument was from my feelings, personal thoughts blah blah blah. so please do not be too harsh or else there would be an eye for an eye thing occurring. sorry if there may be some typo error occuring around the pasage. wadever that i think i would just put it down in words and after i finish writing, i'm not that patient enough to read through all over again to check for mistakes. as you can see, i'm not the patient type of person either.
look at something green and far after reading long passages or else you will go blind. [touchwood]

Beside, she was just a newbie and about to be pushed out into the market for the public to see and if give people the impression that she goes to pubs, i don't think people would think very highly of her. So reprimanding gillian and yumiko about this entirely reasonable
3)That thousand word letter/essay that gillian wrote to mani was written willingly all by herself. It was not like Mani was holding a knife to her throat and forcing her to write it. Some people should go to www.twinsfans.net/bbs/ and go under the magazine section to read the book. The members had helpfully posted all those twins related sections online. Yumiko did not write the 1000 word essay was not because there was biasism but instead, she was just too unsensitive and uncaring towards this type of things to care about her reputation. But anyway, her reputation was already not so good, flirting with any guys in sight.
4)When mani mention about gillian crying when she was unable to go to her idol, Aaron Kwok's, concert, she was just simply presenting to us a different side of gillian instead of the girl that media love describing as cool and aloof. she just wanted to show us that gillian is not always that mature and that she can be rather childish if she wants to. I bet those people who are not so familiar with with gillian will think that gillian is slightly colder and distant than charlene, but imagine when the reader of mani's book read about gillian kicking up a cute childish fuss, his opinion will change right?
5)In the end, mani did gave in to gillian and let her go to the concert. But now you guys are slamming for saying that she just did this to "show the world that she is a nice manager". I beg to differ. Gillian have a concert at australia the next day and everyone knows that last minute preparation is extremely important as something unexpected may happen that will ruin the whole concert, wouldn't it? twins have an abnormally tight schedule and i think we should already kowtow to the gods when mani let gillian watch the concert and i'm sure that gillian is already extremely thankful that mani had let her take an hours' break and watch her idol.
6)Also, some people mention about mani commenting that gillian was ugly and so on blah blah and saying that gillian was not all that attractive. But when i read the book, i did not notice mani mentioning this and when she commented on her first impression on gillian, all she said was that gillian was rather nice looking and slightly on the chubby side, but not once did mani mention that gillian was ugly. What's worse, she describe charlene's face as a pizza with freckles, isn't that more cruel??
7)last but not least, the test singing part. mani mention that when she let gillian test try the first time, gillian sang slightly out of tune and she was not at all impressed. Then mani also mentioned that she give newcomers a second chance and gillian made vast improvements. Isn't that good? But horror of horrors, some people argue that mani's "gracious" offer was fake and that she was just acting nice thats all. If she was really that eveil, i bet she would have kicked gillian out straight after the first try, gillian was an unsigned newbie at that time, why would EEG waste money and time listening to her resing? After all, mani had mentioned that charlene did not do any much better, in fact, from the tone that she use while writing, i conclude that charlene was even worse off than gilllian.
DISCLAIMER: all this argument was from my feelings, personal thoughts blah blah blah. so please do not be too harsh or else there would be an eye for an eye thing occurring. sorry if there may be some typo error occuring around the pasage. wadever that i think i would just put it down in words and after i finish writing, i'm not that patient enough to read through all over again to check for mistakes. as you can see, i'm not the patient type of person either.

I didn't read anything from page like 21 to 28 so I have no clue what ur talking about. From what I've seen so far about Mani, this is what I think. Yes she's a great manager who's amazing when it comes with dealing stuff and trying to protect her artist but sometimes its too much. And like LPB has said, this is all from her book meaning she wrote it so everything is one-sided. Of course we'er thinking from our persepctive too but teh nwe're using how she wrote things down as a point. Mani could be cruel and evil but she can be nice and considerate but we may never know. Youre points were very good and detailed, helping me udnerstand the stuff I was toooooooooooo lazy to read. Hahaha..... clapping.gif

lemme get this straight. i'm not a newbie but instead typing under an alias. u can reply to my comment peacefully but then no harsh comments alright?
i'm happy and drop dead proud to say that i AM a gillian fan and will also forever be one. Besides i MOSTLY agree with the arguments you guys put up and by the way, i read everything from page one to page 28 so i DID NOT miss out anything. At the same time, i also did purchase mani's book and scrutinised every page carefully. After scrutinising the book, i wanna disagree with some peoples' comments. I also have a disclaimer to make: its not that i am supporting charlene here, but just want to clarify some things
1)mani DOES NOT loathe gillian. Look, you guys think that forcing gillian to drink soup is an act of cruelty and kept attacking mani abt it. But drinking soup i good for health and since people always mention that gillian's health is not so great, therefore she should really drink soup to make herself healthier. Besides, forcing someone to drink soup is NOT an act of abuse. My mom always do that to me, so does that make her evil? obviously not.
2)gillian and yumiko went out for a late night escape n lied to mani about it. so its gillian's fault isn't it? At that time gillian had already signed a contract with EEG and she should abide by their rules.

Like the others, I do agree that Mani appears to be a woman who has some sort of intelligence of how to deal with her artistes and company, but it is definitely true on how all these events listed are from Mani's book that she wrote personally; therefore, this is just Mani's side of the story. Just as xlai-wong-baox expressed, who would make himself/herself sound like a bad and unreasonble person in his/her own book? Even if she did write it in a general pov, each person still interprets each thing differently. It depends on each person's standards. You may think this certain thing wasn't that harsh, but another person could easily take it offensively, but it doesn't make either one at fault. As asillysaint said, no arguement needed. By the way, Mani's coming back from her studies soon, sometime this month I heard.

Anyway, on the Yahoo! weekly HK music chart, which is based on online voting and it eliminates all extra voting, Kindergarten is at 1st place, A Story Of Texas is at 4th place, and Conscience Discovery is at 5th place.

Kindergarten and A Story Of Texas is off of the voting ballot now, so we can vote for Conscience Discovery and another two songs of our own choices?

I think all we have to depend on is just the Yahoo! music chart, for Conscience Discovery has already fallen off of the Metro music chart and the RTHK music chart. weeping.gif Can songs come back into the charts after they've fallen out? I hope they can; I also hope that Conscience Discovery can appear on the JSG music chart, so it could've at least been on the chart and I still want to see a live performance of this.

Hm, personally...this line describes how close Mani and Sa are. Mani and Sa understand each other enough to be cracking cruel jokes at each other without offending one another. Just like how Joey loves to joke about Mani and their relationship. I mean, why would Mani share that in a publicized book if she didn't personally know how Sa would react to it. They're pretty close knitted, that's all.

EEG should had promoted the duet when it freshly came out in Kenny's Musick album like during Valentines Day since the song has a romantic theme to it. Now, people have watched the karaoke MV and have listened to the song for quite a while...it's not surprising the song has fallen out of the charts. And to wait for the MV in Kenny's next album...that is just pushing it.

twisted.gif The media can never leave Gillian alone, can they? Just because Nie Yuan wrote the piece of writing titled "The Death Of Ching Ling So" that I posted earlier, the media is making news out of it. n_thumbdown.gif

This is the news translated by me.

Having celebrities open up blogs can pull in the distance with fans, but at the same time, lots of privacy could be leaked out. Recently, Nie Yuan, who has been known to have no romance rumours ever, has unfortunately been pulled into the troubles of blogs. On the 16th, Nie Yuan wrote an entry in his blog titled, "The Death of Ching Ling So". With that, many online fans are suspecting that Nie Yuan has fallen in love with Gillian Chung, who portrays Ching Ling So, while filming "Flying Fox And Snowy Mountain". Yesterday, reporters phoned Nie Yuan, and he expressed that the one he has fallen in the love with is the character of Ching Ling So, but he did compliment that Gillian is really cute and much prettier than the Ching Ling So written in the novel.

At the beginning of the writing, Nie Yuan wrote, "As soon as Gillian finally reported back to the crew, the director and I started to relax, for I finally don't have to be 'talking to myself' during certain scenes." Afterwards, he started describing how it was filming the scene of "The Death Of Ching Ling So"; the writing was written very sentimentally, and it was full of his feelings and compliments of Gillian, "I have once joked, "Gillian is the most beautiful 'Ching Ling So' within dated history!" "She silently leaned against me; she was so petite and weak with her pale face. I started thinking, "Without her, how lonely am I going to be?" "Just when the director yelled, "Cut!", Gillian and I already had a face full of tears, and sweating heavily too. There are times of when I suddenly wake up at night due to a frightening dream, I would need several moments to bring myself back, and then I would silently rejoice to myself, "It's good that it was only a dream!"

As this writing was posted up, there were many onlines fans transfering it all over different forums and reading it. Besides complimenting that Nie Yuan is a good writer, many expressed that Nie Yuan seemed to be too into the scene and seems to have developed a crush on Gillian from not actually 'acting' while filming. There are also some who titled the writing as "Has Nie Yuan Fallen In Love With Gillian Chung?" before reposting it at another site. There are some fans who feel that Gillian is a great seducer, and Alex Fong Lik Sun was attracted by her electrifying eyes, and at the same time suspecting that it's probably what's happening with Nie Yuan now.

Yesterday, reporters contacted Nie Yuan. He was very stunned to hear that an entry on his blog would cause such a chaos and asked, "Says who?" Afterwards, he expressed that writing this entry only had to do with his love for the character of Ching Ling So, and nothing else. "Ching Ling So is very lovable, selfless, compassionate, and great character. I feel that anyone would feel a heartache when he/she sees her die." When reporters asked about his feelings towards Gillian, he replied, "Gillian is very cute, and a great co-star. She's very suitable for the character, Ching Ling So, but she's more beautiful than Ching Ling So!"

Hm, well I don't mind that much since everyone is intentionally using the "Rumors" tactics for promotions but as long as we know that Nie Yuan was sincere with his admiration for Ching Ling So, it's alright.

But one thing that was like huh? dry.gif ...was the seducing Alex part. Some people can be so shallow.

I was wondering if Gillian's series is Mainland?? Like the series with Liu Yi Fei in it?? Hmm..does my question make sense..dunno how to word it but anyways I know that some of the Mainland series get procasted in the International channel in the U.S...I notice my parents like to watch that channel and I saw that one of Liu Yi Fei's series were being shown.

It would be good pubicity for Gillian even though it would be oversea fans but still have more fans support her!! I'm sure there's a fair amount of westerners watching that channel too!! I mean if it does get procasted and people love her character and her acting!! Imagine if Gillian gets lucky and Hollywood spots her...lolx..she could say byebye to EEG..j/k..

Um, for the VCD versions, are the characters embedded in the discs? Some vary. I know that some concerts I've purchased don't have such huge karaoke characters; huge characters bother me.

Thanks for the video. It's cute how they integrate the song in the film. Gillian looks dazzling. Hm, there are some scenes of Gillian I so want to use in my next EG video once I get my computer fixed.

But these serials are broadcasted way way after their official release date in Asia though but yeah, it would be another way to expose Gillian to a new wave of audience.

Thanks for the great news!! So you're certain that there's a TVB version of Conscience Discovery? I hope it tops the chart this time and KG can go and perform it live!!

Challenge songs just means that those songs are the ones that are 'challenging' to get onto the chart, so if we see any new songs hitting the chart next week on JSG, it will be chosen from the challenging songs.

Sometimes when they are challenging songs or just got onto the charts, they would have the artists sing it live to promote it, I wish they could go on before its number 1 also so they could perform TWICE!

I hope they could go on and do it twice too! Actually I hope that Kenny and Gillian can go on JSG, perform Conscience Discovery, and sing a medley of other duet songs. infatuated.gif Haha, my wishful thinking. Performing it twice is good though because it's extra promoting, seeing how Conscience Discovery hasn't exactly been promoted; at least we've never heard a live version of it yet. Usually the songs that are performed as challenge songs do make it up to the top of the chart, so I hope they do go to perform it.

EDIT:
Just to make sure, I went to download this week's JSG, and I am sure that there IS a TVB version of Conscience Discovery! When Amigo introduced the challenge songs, it showed a small caption of the MV and it was very different from the one we saw. Kenny's and Gillian's hairstyles were different, and the setting was different. The setting of this MV seems to be exterior because there were some bushes behind Kenny and Gillian. I can't wait until it comes out!! This one will definitely come out before the EEG version. It'll probably be out next week when TVB updates their music chart page.

Here are some screencaps that I made from JSG.

Thanks for the picture and the confirmation of the TVB version MV. I can't wait to see it! YAy, another KG MV!! From the pictures, it seem that it just showing the 2 of them singing next to each other, I hope they'll be a plot and other scenes as well.

Yeah, I hope that they do something in the mv too, cuz I dont want to see them just standing there and it would be nice if it had a plot to it.

Thanks for the pictures. Looks decent. So this is the other version we have been waiting for eh? dance.gif Hopefully, KG can perform it live as it ROCKS the charts!!

Hm, it seems like no one really invests in MVs anymore. Hopefully, this one is different. The EEG Version is still a long way before its official release date...

But in the meantime, here is my personal version; finally completed it. I'm a bit disappointed and dissatisfied with this MV because it seems a bit messy. There weren't a lot of clips of KG together so it was extremely difficult piecing everything together so as you can tell the sequence and scenes sort of became confusing to follow as the MV proceeded, oh well...please don't mind the minor glitches....enjoy.

EDIT: YOUTUBE Link later!

Well, the MV captions of all the challenge songs all appeared like that. They all consisted of a scene of where the artiste was singing, but I do hope this has some kind of plot with it. Usually they make good use of the chance to bring two artistes together in a duet MV because the two artistes don't come together very often. MVs for solo artistes/groups might be slightly slacked off because no doubt they will be able to make a better MV later on.

At least we have this one to look at while we have to wait so long for the EEG version to come out, but hey, we got ourselves another KG clip for future uses, like you could use it for your future MVs and KG will actually be on the same screen. I hope this MV isn't like Kindergarten of how Gillian and Charlene just sat on this merry-go-round thing and were singing the song. They should make a good plot out of it; if not, then they should at least plug in a few sweet and warming scenes between KG.

I just downloaded it from our download section here in the forum. I know what you mean about the TV's version of JSG; the TV more like shows ten minutes of it because JSG that is aired in HK is around twenty minutes in total, not counting commercials.

Like I said before, they never make news out of it when artistes film a TVB MV, so it could've been made at any recent time. I think it's after Gillian started filming for her series though since her hair just looks wavy in the MV; if it was filmed before she started filming for her series, then I'd imagine her hair would be curly as it was in the EEG version. But yeah, Gillian usually does get breaks here and there to keep up with her HK activities, so I hope she can come back to go on JSG and perform!!

Do you mean you want this week's JSG to watch the whole thing? Or do you just want to see the KG part of it? If it's for KG, then it's really nothing because they appear for about three seconds and I've already made screencaps of it. I'll upload it if you still want it.

Hmm..... I still thought this MV was pretty good though I agree that your previous productions had been better, but it was quite clever of you to use those scenes from the KTV version of Conscience Discovery by fitting it in with the KTV letters and the song matching. dance.gif I loved the opening part of the MV the most. The scenes that you've chosen were great! Keep up the good work! And I loved that photo appearing at the end! infatuated.gif

Well, I like this MV more than the very first EG one of "Remember I Love You" because this one seems to flow better and easier transition. Good thing there was the 55 sec KTV clip or else it would had been more difficult searching for matching or at least decent scenes of KG for another 55 secs so that clip saved me a lot of extra work. Plus, I decided to mix in the KTV since everyone has been long anticipating for the MV.

I wanted the song to end up where KG returned back together and mended their differences but there wasn't any good clip of them together so I just decided to replace the scene with the picture but not sure if anyone would catch that. happy.gif'

I already have two EG MVs lined up next since I am a bigger fan of EG but another KG one is next after! yeah.gif I wish to not repeat on scenes but I guess it's inevitable. It's hard to find a good Twins MV to extract Gillian clips out from these days especially when the MVs are either a view of their concert, their tour, or of Twins singing next to each other. dry.gif I'm running out of movie scenes too.

Thanks for the screencaps...hmm..I dunno but from the clips..it's seemed like they would just be like randomly moving around while singing it...Seems like no plot or it might just be extracting clips from the EEG verison...because the bg of the screencaps gives that impression!! but I hope I'm wrong!!

Another great MV from you!! Love how you put the clips together..even though there were much KG scenes but you made them seemed like doing the samething or close to same place as each other..you get what I mean?? Like the opening scene where Gillian was in a room and Kenny was also in a room in the next scene..I also like the big characters were sync with their singing!!

This time the MV loaded so fast that I can comment on the MV before posting..lolx!!

dance.gif The TVB version of Conscience Discovery is OUT!!!!

Here are two links for it:

mms://media.tvb.com/asu/ent/e20060324_video29_5425_b.asf

This MV is pretty decent. It has a plot, so it's not just Kenny and Gillian standing there and singing the song. My guess was wrong though, the MV doesn't take place outside, but in a restaurant. The 'bushes' were merely just a background. My only complaint is that there aren't enough KG scenes, so I'm still looking forward to the EEG version. Ha, who knew staying up later to study for math would turn out to be something good? n_tt2.gif Of course that means slacking off a bit to go online while studying. innocent.gif
