TITS2 Promotion: Chilam & Francis Ng Feels No TV Rating Pressure
TVB grand production Triumph in the Skies II is premiering on Monday July 15th. Yesterday Francis Ng, Chilam Cheung, Myolie Wu, Ron Ng, Kelly Fu, Kenneth Ma, Elena Kong and Jess Shum attended the promotional event held at the aircraft maintenance warehouse. The cast appeared dressed in their flight crew uniforms. Female lead Fala Chen was absent. Although Francis lost his classic "pilot haircut", he and Chilam were still the most popular flight crew; Jess, dressed in a flight attendant uniform, attracted many guys wanting to take pictures with her.
It was said based on the experience TVB had with their other low-rated grand production Beauty At War, TVB wants the TITS2 cast to really promote the series this time to prevent another setback. Bearing the burden to rescue the TV ratings, Francis expressed: "It is not convenient for me to comment on this topic! We don't have pressure. Whether the ratings does well or not, there will still be topics of discussion and that's enough. I hope there will be more celebrations with my colleagues. (Will you accommodate to the promotions?) Because I have other jobs, the TV media is already the greatest promotion. I really haven't worried about it. The ratings should be fine. (Unfortunate Fala is absent?) There will always be someone missing at the promotion, next time it may be me. We all have other jobs!"
Chilam isn't worried about the ratings, he is pleased to be able to participate in a grand production because there may not be another opportunity to do so. He knows about A Change of Heart's 32 point rating, and feels honored to be part of the series replacing that time slot. Many people said the ratings will continue on like this.
Myolie admitted before TITS2 reaches its finale week, she already knows there are 5 promotional events scheduled. She will try her best to participate in them, but she said after the promotional clips were released, she got more jobs.
Earlier in Silver Spoons, Sterling Shackles, Elena and Kenneth played mother-son, but this time in TITS2, they're a "sister-brother" couple. Kenneth laughed: "Actually Elena is 3 years older than me. We have quite passionate scenes in the series, our relationship started out with just sex, no love. (Have you experienced this type of relationship in real life?) No. When I was younger, I wanted to be in a sexually active relationship. I believe many guys won't be offended, all older sisters were attractive, but I don't have the courage now."
Ron Ng and rumored girlfriend Kelly Fu generously took pictures together, but Ron felt emotional about their rumor. He stressed Kelly is not his girlfriend, they have never dated before. Kelly reiterated that there was a misunderstanding, she and Ron are just good friends.
