On the evening of January 14, the annual TVB Star Awards Ceremony came to an end. "News Queen" held up all the highlights, and Charmaine Sheh named Malaysia's favorite TVB heroine and the Greater Bay Area's favorite TVB heroine in one breath. She won all three awards including Best Actress. She has become a legend in Hong Kong dramas after winning the title for the third time.
When many actresses of the same age gradually bid farewell to the screen, the 48-year-old Charmaine Sheh showed the pride of a leading heroine both on and off the screen because of her role as Wen Huixin.
On this night, behind the highlight of her winning three awards in a row, past CPs and scandal targets were sending hugs one after another, which also reflected her transformation.
Except for her, no one was surprised.
Charmaine Sheh wore a long black dress decorated with silver metallic lace. She pulled up her hair, showing a sharpness that was different from Wen Huixin in "News Queen", and showed off on the red carpet of the TVB awards ceremony. Brilliant and dignified.
Compared to the night before when she dressed fashionably to receive an award with Ye Tong and others at another award ceremony, Charmaine Sheh’s outfit was full of jewels and looked grander. After all, this award ceremony was for her. In other words, just like Concubine Xi in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" who returns to the palace and makes a gorgeous return after leaving the nest to fly solo, she must be grand and classy.
On the slightly dim red carpet of TVB, Charmaine Sheh was as beautiful as a pearl, as if announcing to the whole audience: This is my sister’s home court.
Charmaine Sheh’s aura is not without reason. Compared with the TV series she took after leaving TVB, she has played in sweet dramas and served as a foil for the little flowers. Although "Story of Yanxi Palace" is still out of the circle, the real drama Nothing falls on her character, and the former overlord of Mount Wutai makes people sigh.
Therefore, when she returned to TVB and took over the filming of "News Queen", it was like Huan Huan walking back from Lingyun Peak to Yongshou Palace.
Charmaine Sheh's journey did not disappoint. When filming "News Queen", she memorized her lines every day, hoping to capture the aura that the character Wen Huixin should have.
When this series was aired, Charmaine Sheh's character Wen Huixin made the audience's eyes brighten. There was no excessive emotional drama, and her strength in the professional field showed the long-lost sophistication of working women in TVB series.
In the post-era of Hong Kong dramas, Charmaine Sheh’s return will support TVB’s highlight in 2023.
In this way, she is very similar to the period after Huan Huan. Because Wen Huixin is dedicated to her career, many fans of the drama are feeling as if they are seeing the TVB they were familiar with again.
Charmaine Sheh, who returned to TVB, returned to her home court. She used "News Queen" to declare that at the age of 48, she still has no opponent. As long as she appears, many Yingying Yanyan can only show a surrendering smile.
Take a closer look at the three times she won the award that night. Every time her name was rang, except for her own surprise, the whole audience was smiling as they had already accepted it. This scene was very fantastic, but it also revealed Charmaine Sheh’s three qualities. "Looking after" is what everyone expects.
A "vase" comeback
From being the third runner-up of "Miss Hong Kong" in 1997 to entering the entertainment industry, Charmaine Sheh has convinced the audience now because of the long road to crushing the "vase".
Sending the annual "Hong Kong Sisters" into the entertainment industry is a routine operation of TVB. However, can these beauties survive the career of supporting roles, and can they really break the convenience brought by good looks and become actors? It’s just an unknown.
Charmaine Sheh also had a three-year career after her debut. At that time, she was always known as having a loud voice. However, as an actress, she was also ridiculed for her high-pitched and thin voice. ".
No one is optimistic that this beautiful girl can become a good actress, but she has only been a "vase" for several years based on her appearance.
Back then, Charmaine Sheh also suspected that she had no talent, but she didn't admit it, so even if she was proposed to by the wealthy young master Li Nianwei, she was not willing to marry into a wealthy family.
She said to the camera, "I don't want to end my career so soon. I think he wants to get married, but I have no plans to get married."
In the year when marrying a wealthy family was the trend, Charmaine Sheh chose to go against the trend.
However, in those years when TVB was in full bloom, Charmaine Sheh was not the most dominant one even though she tried her best. She was overtaken by both Zhang Keyi and Gigi Lai in turns in the "TV Queen" career. In 2006, with "Phoenix", she won "Quartet" was so excited that she burst into tears when she won the first "Quartet". She recalled the past when she was criticized for her "chicken voice" and "poor acting skills". After 9 years since her debut, she finally gained a firm foothold in TVB. .
However, after this highlight, actresses such as Yang Yi (Yang Qiyao) and Wu Dingxin began to emerge, and the gradual decline of Hong Kong dramas became a topic. In those years, Charmaine Sheh also tried to enter the mainland market and filmed "Jian Yuan Fengyun" with Hu Jun. and other works.
However, Charmaine Sheh's works received a mediocre response, and she quickly returned to TVB, and then "Walker" was waiting for her. Because of the role of Ding Xiaojia, Charmaine Sheh, who was about to turn 40 that year, won the "Queen of Views" trophy for the second time. Wearing a white lace dress with a stand-up collar, she looked like a princess, but she lamented that it was not easy to win the award again. She had been in the entertainment industry for 17 years. But she couldn't hide her irritability because of the pace of work.
Although she won the award, it is not difficult to see that Charmaine Sheh at that time was not self-contained enough. She was always waiting for a good drama or a good role, which often made her anxious.
After taking off the "TV Queen" twice, Charmaine Sheh was considered to have touched the ceiling of an actress in TVB, so she chose to leave the nest and enter the mainland film and television industry with all her strength.
just went from being the leading actress in three or four dramas a year to needing to meet the team and recruit resources by herself. She soon fell into a bottleneck period. She began to put aside her role to play supporting roles, from the concubine in "Story of Yanxi Palace" to "The Story of Yanxi Palace" to "The Story of Yanxi Palace". "Yan Yuntai" starring Xiao Hu Nian, Charmaine Sheh firmly established herself with her acting skills.
Compared with many TVB actors who hit a wall after entering the mainland film and television industry, Charmaine Sheh has blazed her own path.
She has also decided to return to TVB again. Although she has changed from the "biological daughter" in the past to a contract with the boss, TVB's launch of the celebration drama "News Queen" undoubtedly shows that they value her, and we can also get a glimpse of Charmaine Sheh's devotion to her. see.
At the end of 2023, Wen Huixin was out of the circle due to her ability in "News Queen", and Charmaine Sheh became the "viewing queen" of the third star. It was already considered that the final list of winners was announced. However, TVB's award ceremony has been biased towards its highly praised actresses for many years. There are doubts about whether Charmaine Sheh, who has been invited to collaborate with the TVB, can be fair.
Today, Charmaine Sheh won three awards in one night, and became the first "TV queen" in the three-dimensional material. This is the path she has taken step by step for 26 years. Those who once doubted her are gone, and she has long since smiled. "Vase" label.
The awards ceremony was the third time that Charmaine Sheh’s growth documentary
was featured on TVB. Charmaine Sheh’s night was full of glory.
She won three awards in one breath. Every time she won an award, it seemed as if she was also playing the label that TVB had given her along the way. When
won the trophy for Malaysia's favorite TVB heroine, Charmaine Sheh was full of surprise, while Ma Guoming, Gao Haining and Li Shiwei were surprised and offered encouragement.
In the drama, Wen Hui Sum and Leung King Yan are both enemies and friends. Outside the drama, Charmaine Sheh and Ma Guoming are old partners who have struggled together in TVB dramas. Although Ma Guoming only picked up one trophy all night, his smile for Charmaine was not only a sign of friendship for his partner, but also the satisfaction of watching an old friend become a legend.
Since then, Charmaine Sheh once again won the favorite TVB heroine in the Greater Bay Area, and Lin Baoyi and Luo Jialiang won the prize for her together.
20 years after the broadcast of "The Golden Branch", Er Chun, who once secretly promised his love but failed to exchange for true love, now received Sun Baiyang's smiling blessings. Charmaine Sheh and Lin Baoyi inadvertently touched the memory of Hong Kong dramas.
Nowadays, it is said that Charmaine Sheh's return to TVB is like Huan Huan, but Liu Lianzi wrote "The Legend of Zhen Huan" because of her love for "Golden Branches", which is also a magical circle.
Charmaine Sheh whistled after winning the award and called Julian Cheung to come on stage to open the award for best drama series. The affectionate hug between the two reminded people of "Moonlight on the Fifth of October".
As Charmaine Sheh's first drama as a heroine in TVB, her role as Zhu Junhao and Zhang Zhilin's role as Wen Chu have become the white moonlight in the hearts of many drama fans. In 2015, "Moonlight on the Fifth of October" was remade into a movie version, which shows how recognized this drama is.
In the 15 years between the drama version and the film version, Charmaine Sheh and Julian Cheung did not work together again because the two had such a strong sense of cliché that it was once revealed that Anita Yuen caused a scene. It was not until the filming of the movie that Charmaine Sheh and Anita Yuen interacted live that their relationship was considered to have broken the ice.
years later, Anita Yuen publicly responded to the rumors and determined that Charmaine Sheh had never been involved in her relationship with Julian Cheung, which made the relationship between the three people more clear. Nowadays, Charmaine Sheh is no longer disturbed by the rumors after whistling at the award ceremony to bring Julian Cheung onto the stage and hugging her. The story of Zhu Junhao and Wenchu also has another extra story.
Charmaine Sheh won the "Queen of Views" trophy for the third time, and it was Raymond Lam and Yang Xiyao who jointly opened the award for her.
One is a partner who has worked together for many years and has been involved in scandals, and the other is an old rival who has been accused of having a bad relationship and has been competing for a long time. This network of relationships can write a drama in itself.
As Charmaine Sheh’s old partner, Raymond Lam has collaborated with her on a number of works such as "Delicious Storm", "Flower World of Flowers", and "Apostle Walker". During the years when Charmaine Sheh became the leading actress, Raymond Lam was also the leading actress. They played various lovers in the drama and there were frequent scandals outside the drama.
It turns out that they are just a pure partnership. After Raymond Lam and Zhang Xinyue got married and had a daughter, Charmaine Sheh also had gatherings with the young couple, and their friendship was self-evident.
Yang Qiyao, who had appeared with Charmaine Sheh in works such as "The Palace Plan", was her fierce rival in the post-TVB period. As leading actresses, they were frequently accused of competing for awards and competing for dramas.
However, when Yang Qiyao accepted the award at the 2009 awards ceremony, Charmaine Sheh took the initiative to send a sweet kiss, which shattered the rumors of competition among actresses.

When she and Raymond Lam watched with excitement as the 48-year-old Charmaine Sheh became the "TV queen" of the third material, scenes of TVB's past flashed up, and they silently revealed that the actresses who had passed through the time not only competed for beauty, but also had problems in the workplace. identify with each other.

Her journey to becoming a "revelation queen" seems to have been drawn into a documentary in the minutiae of this award ceremony. Her growth and transformation are all in it in the end. She is a female star. She has grown up and advanced as an underappreciated rookie. Now she is no longer anxious, and her expression is confident and self-consistent. This is the real way to develop a great heroine.
