[Synopsis] BoTa in Casino Turbulence

TVB will start filming for a 30 episode series called Do Cheung Fung Wan. They will once again go to the Philipines for outdoor scenes like they did for Revolving Door of Vengeance. The series is confirmed to consist of Jessica Hsuan, Bobby Au Yeung, and Tavia Yeung.

The producer said that in this series, Jessica and Bobby will have some roles as 'obsessed gamblers', which should be a challenge to both of them. Bobby expressed that he has never acted such role in all his years of acting. As with Jessica, she will practice some gambling techniques to spiff up her skills before filming.

Costume Fitting Pictures





TVB's new series, "Dou Cheung Fung Wan" (Casino Turbulent Times) held its costume fitting yesterday. The cast includes Bobby Au Yeung, Jessica Hsuan, Michael Miu Kiu Wai, Bosco Wong Chung Chak and Tavia Yeung Yi.

At the costume fitting yesterday, Tavia wore extra pads to create a "D cup" effect, as her character in the series will be getting breast implants. Tavia's image was the most outstanding at the press conference. Even Bobby Au Yeung said "Wow" when he saw her and naughtily said, "Let's all go touch it."

Bosco Wong also laughed, "I have never seen Tavia so 'grown up' before. But I don't dare look!" In order to evade suspicion that he was leering at Tavia, Bosco either looked up at the ceiling or turned his back against Tavia for the photos. The atmosphere was quite humorous. This is the first time that Tavia will be portraying such as sexy character. Tavia said, "In the series, my character is very flirtatious, and she even gets a breast enlargement in order to enter a beauty pageant. That's why I wore some special pads today to increase my bust size. When we start filming later, the pads will be even thicker for more obvious effect. But my character dresses very sexily in the show, so I have to take precautions and beware of overexposure."

Is Tavia worried that she will be teased because of this image? "No I don't mind, as I wanted to try out a more mature role."

Bobby will be playing a gambling addict in the series. "In the first 10 episodes of the series, my character is only interested in sleeping and eating." Bobby wore a 40 inch fake belly at the press conference. But Bobby said that for more convincing results, he plans to gain 10 more pounds. As it has been several years since Bobby has last worked with Jessica, he said, "It's been so many years since our last collaboration, but Jessica has not aged at all! Maybe she ate some anti-aging pills?"

Jessica laughed and said, "Bobby has receding hairline!" (But Bobby said that you still look so good!) Jessica said, "That's the truth! But I still thank him!"

Jessica's character will play a kind-hearted gambling addict 「爛賭婆」，Jessica said in real life, she does not like gambling. But she will be going to the casinos in Macau later to observe the characteristics of people who are gambling addicts, so that she can portray her role more convincingly. Jessica also said that when she films series nowadays, she considers who her co-star will be before she accepts a role. Her main goal is to be happy while filming series. When she found out her co-star was Bobby this time, she immediately accepted the role.

Michael Miu will be playing a casino manager, but with a touch of mafia-feel. Michael wore a fake clip-on earring stud at the press conference yesterday. Michael said he might actually get his ears pierced for the role if necessary. It actually has been 20 years since Bobby and Michael have last worked together. Prior to "Dou Cheung Fung Wan," the last series they starred in together was "The Foundation" in the 1980's.

There will also be a love triangle between Jessica, Bobby, and Michael's characters in the series.




19 Apr 2006
Bobby Au Yeung, Jessica Hsuan, Michael Miu, Bosco Wong, and Tavia Yeung were at the blessing ceremony for "Dou Cheung Fung Wan." The series had started filming for several weeks, but the blessing ceremony only took place yesterday.

It has been 7 years since Jessica and Bobby last worked together on a series, so they are hoping for renewed sparks. Bobby is constantly cracking jokes on the set. Jessica teased Bobby and said he is like a "Philippine Prince" due to his dark skin. Bobby said that Jessica is constantly in the bathroom and that she is often constipated.

Earlier Bobby had to film a scene where he washes Bosco's hair. Bosco was wearing a wig during the filming of the scene and Bobby said, "At one time in my life, I had as much hair as you did!" This caused an eruption of laughter on the set.



In the series, Michael Miu will have a passionate kissing scene with Jessica. Michael joked and said that if Jessica wants to, they can even film a bed scene as well.

Tavia Yeung plays a Philippine-Chinese in the series. Tavia has been going to a tanning salon in order to make her skin darker. Her character goes through breast enhancement and has a figure of 37D. To make the results look more realistic, Tavia had to put 3 pound weights inside her bra during filming. In order to make filming more convenient, Tavia would not remove the weights on the set. As they are quite heavy, Tavia has suffered back pain carrying the extra weight around the set for 10+ hours each day. "I finally understand why certain women who received breast implants decided to go back to their normal size!"

Synopsis

流落異鄉

甚有賭術天份的齊歡暢﹝歐陽震華飾﹞18歲便躋身世界撲克王大賽，而且被視為奪魁熱門。可惜，暢年少氣盛，在賽前關頭，受到對手喬正初﹝苗僑偉飾﹞的女朋友藍小茵﹝郭少芸飾﹞誘惑，一時意亂情迷，竟然遺失3歲的親弟齊歡樂﹝黃宗澤飾﹞。結果決賽時候，暢徬徨不安，賭不下去，賽事宣佈中止。初不費吹灰之力，重重打擊了暢。

暢自始沉淪，以賭麻醉，且交上「衰運」，逢賭必輸，結果惹上一屁股賭債，輾轉流落菲律賓，可幸，遇上熱心助人的周福榮﹝許紹雄飾﹞。

榮用苦肉計幫暢戒賭，暢感動不已，決重新做人。暢又因榮的關係，重遇當年積怨的初。初竟不計前嫌為暢安排工作，幫他賺錢還債，暢對初感激，視為恩人。暢、初、榮更成為好朋友。

兄弟相見不相認

暢返港尋親時，重遇在菲律賓賭場認識的李青雲﹝宣萱飾﹞。雲急需還債，強行拿走暢的錢還債去。暢拿雲沒辦法，只好就範。暢搬入新屋，沒想到要與隱閉青年張來富同住。

幾經轉折，暢查得雙親已逝，決誓要尋回親弟，未料，富竟是齊歡樂。可惜，富當年被拐後，忘卻雙親和兄長，兄弟相見不相認。

暢發現富甚具賭的天份，能對52隻撲克牌過目不忘。暢著初安排讓富到賭場當DEALER，算是給富重新投入社會的機會。富不知就裡，漸漸視初為偶像，關係比跟暢更要好。

好友決裂．埋下伏線

暢獲賭場集團大老闆賞識，沒經初意見，直接欽點暢當賭場監控主任。事情令初對暢萌生介蒂。

另方面，初對好賭成性的雲﹝宣萱飾﹞心動，甚至因她安危而失去理智，踩中老千陷阱，因而承受重大的名譽和金錢損失，被威脅同流合污，策劃欺詐賭場。

暢知悉，勸初收手，奈何，初勢成騎虎，反過來對暢起戒心。及後，初借助老千集團勢力，陷害暢。兩人從此決裂。

初私心作祟，把富立為入室弟子，將富扯入賭海。初以防萬一，還收賣了富的夢中情人譚珠美﹝楊怡飾﹞，藉此進一步控制富。

兩雄相鬥

另一邊廂，落難的暢得雲扶持，熬過難關，兩人相處融洽。暢對雲情深，奈何，雲情傾初。曾經屬於暢的親情、愛情和事業，都恍惚輸了給初，更甚者，初為求勝利，既然間接令榮死去。暢盛怒難平，決跟初正面交鋒。暢得茵幫忙，參加超級賭王爭霸戰，年隔20多年，雙雄再次在賭檯上一較高下。賭局誰勝誰負？

誓死反撲

富和初的感情遠比暢想像來得深厚。初推波助瀾，富反而視親兄暢為仇人。初利用富的賭技，一方面為錢追擊賭場，一方面令富和暢兄弟相殘。

最後，暢和富兄弟會否和好？雲對初及暢又如何選擇？心謀遠慮的初，結局又如何？
