The two left the nest last year and switched to Studio VO, a subsidiary of PCCW, to create this first work of Studio VO. . Yip Chun-fai said that “Food Buddies” is actually “a little salty, a lot fun.” ViuTV’s camera standards are more stringent than TVB’s, but it is looser in terms of story themes and expressions of consciousness. “Ruby was worried regarding whether certain scenes might be filmed. For example, the plot regarding Wu Zhaoxuan’s self-destruction was not an ordinary Hong Kong drama plot. I told her to write with confidence and adjust it during filming, using a stream-of-consciousness technique to express it. With many years of experience, she also knows the standards of television. , it turns out that Viu’s screen review is more rigorous than that of the old company. Audiences may notice that the online version is slightly different. I will not use the original version for promotion, but there are some deleted scenes that I want to keep and put them into the online version. “
In the play, Wu Zhaoxuan plays the “ordinary IT dog” Ade who wants to be single. At the same time, he meets the goddesses Asha (played by Su Haoer) and Jan (played by Tan Shanyan), and unexpectedly develops into a threesome, and they also have sex at the dining table and in bed. The door to the new world. Yip Chun-fai said that the role of “Adak” is difficult to play, and it can easily become obscene when sandwiched between two women. The current Adelaide is “homely” and silly, and the audience can easily accept it. “I was impressed by him when I watched the movie “One Day We Will Fly”. He was very attentive in his acting. I would like to express my special thanks to Alex Ko for playing his pet “Dudu”. The man and the dog were very vivid.” Ke Weilin plays the role in the play BJ, who is keen on NTR, Ye Zhenhui said that he is an actor who has his own ideas. Tang Haoran, who plays the role of the little fresh meat man with social difficulties, appeared in the TV series “The Discipline” a few years ago, and later went to work behind the scenes. “He majored in directing at the Academy of Performing Arts. During filming, he understood the director’s ideas very well, and there was a lot of sparkle when working together. He also has great potential with Wu Zhaoxuan and Ke Weilin. After hearing the story, these young people were also attracted to the characters and wanted to try new things. .”
As for the three female characters, Yip Chun-fai said, “In addition to being a goddess of netizens, she is also a good actress.” She did enough homework before filming to give people a different feeling in the play. Her seductive eyes made the audience fantasize endlessly; Su Haoer, who worked with him in “Golden Night 2”, was very attentive during filming and only needed a chance to perform; Wei Shiya performed very well in the movie “Married Soon”, which was the reason why he asked her to act. “Food Buddies” has been aired for two weeks. Yip Chun-fai has noticed the response from the outside world and found that the audience is very receptive. “Audiences of different ages have different understandings following watching it. Older and more mature people know more regarding the world of young people; parents learn to communicate with their children from different angles; young people can empathize with the protagonist’s situation and think more regarding it; for younger people, they learn more regarding it. Audiences, this drama may also serve as a reminder to them. The story does not judge these relationships between men and women as right or wrong, but if you have fun and have fun, you must ultimately be responsible and abide by the rules. This is a story regarding the growth of relationships between people.”
If he is still with TVB today, Yip Chun-fai may not be able to produce a drama like “Food Buddies”. “Sister Zhen (Tsang Lizhen) may not like it. Taiwan has a system that needs to be followed, and there are many factors to consider, so more explanations are needed, but it does not necessarily mean that it cannot be filmed. Man Wai-hung (TVB “Walker”, “Fortress Heroes”, “Super” Producer of dramas such as “The Messenger” and “The Invisible Team”) and also filmed “Sex with Love”. When I was filming “Golden Night”, I was also asked how scary the filming was? Will it scare away the audience? Different types of dramas are produced on different platforms. It’s a good thing, everyone has their own choice. I don’t want to challenge the scale this time, I just want to shoot some interesting and close-to-the-ground social stories.” Yip Chun-fai joined TVB in 1998 and started as an assistant director. His first drama series was “Fire Ambition” , “Golden Night Building” is his masterpiece in the wireless era. At that time, he declined Wang Weiji’s solicitation from “Hong Kong TV”, but last year he decided to leave the nest. Yip Chun-fai hopes to “watch more and try more”. “Wireless is a big family. The company provides great support and I feel safe. Equipment and technology are also improving in all aspects, but I want to learn more outside of wireless. The world is moving very fast, and learning is a lifetime thing. Over the past 20 years TVB gave me valuable experience, especially when I was transferred to TVB New Wings to shoot on location, and I met a good outsourcing production team, which made me not afraid of anything in the new environment.” He does not agree that TVB dramas must have ” Tai Tai flavor” depends on the director’s style, storytelling skills and camera use. “I don’t need to get rid of the so-called ‘Taiwanese flavor’ either!”
