At the 2023 TVB Star Awards Ceremony, Charmaine Sheh won the TV Queen for "News Queen", breaking the record and becoming TVB's first three-time TV Queen. The three winning works are: "Phoenix Quartet" in 2006, "Walker" in 2014 and "News Queen" last year. After
won the trophy, many netizens lamented that Charmaine Sheh would release a hit drama every few years. As far as mainland audiences are concerned, the drama "Golden Branches", which started the palace battle drama, to "The Palace Plan", "The Walker", left TVB to go north to film "Strategy of Yanxi Palace" and "The Sideburns Are Not Begonia Red", and then to and "News Queen" co-produced by her old club. Along the way, I have always relied on my works to speak for myself.
So, although many people are not loyal fans of Charmaine Sheh and do not deliberately follow her dramas, they have been watching her works. In these years, Charmaine Sheh has never seen any stagnation or decline in her career. She has worked hard and never slackened off since her debut, with almost no interruptions. This is really convincing. What is worth mentioning about winning the award this time is that Charmaine Sheh has set an example for domestic entertainment both on and off the screen.
The real heroine who is dedicated to her career
is no longer an actress in TVB. Charmaine Sheh can still win this award with this work in TVB, which has a very serious hilltop culture, which is enough to show the influence of this work. After all, it can be said that it is the only Hong Kong drama in the past 10 years that has made it out of the circle and entered the national audience.
There are so many things that are worthy of praise in the drama, especially the consistency of the drama from the inside out, the core of the heroine under the outer appearance of the heroine. Wen Hui, played by Charmaine Sheh, is three-dimensional and full-bodied. She is not absolutely truthful, good or beautiful, nor is she blindly vicious. She has a strong commitment to the journalism industry and will do whatever it takes to achieve her status. This is something that many domestic entertainment movies and TV dramas today cannot do, grasp, and have a real heroine without stereotypes.
Charmaine Sheh's mid-level performance gradually became more powerful
Charmaine Sheh was also scolded for her acting in the beginning. She entered TVB from the second runner-up of Miss Hong Kong. Logically, Charmaine Sheh's resources would not be as good. However, because the champion and runner-up that year were both involved in scandals, Charmaine Sheh became the natural choice. became a big hit that year. After
entered TVB, she served as the heroine in three dramas, "Snowy Mountain Flying Fox", "Criminal Investigation Files IV" and "Life Take 2". Charmaine Sheh played all roles that fit the temperament and image of a white flower.
resources are in place, and performance skills are also in place. I don’t have the energy to read my lines, I just shout loudly and cry at every turn, which makes many people feel bored. Neither having a major in acting nor having any talent, Charmaine Sheh relied on hard work to make up for her shortcomings, and everyone saw her role as Bai Qiehei Er Chun in "The Golden Branch".
Even in front of An Qian, Niu Hulu Ruyue, and Yuying, who are also very plump and complex characters, and the actors behind them are Zhang Keying, Tang Cuiwen, and Gigi Lai, who were among the top actors in TVB at that time, Charmaine Sheh was not familiar at all. His aura and acting skills really make people sigh: after three days of separation, they will be looked at with admiration.
Since then, we have been able to see Charmaine Sheh's acting skills steadily improving step by step, with twenty years of hard work. When we catch up on "News Queen", we can see that in this drama, Miss Wen Huixin has basically no similarities with herself. One second after the extravaganza and the next second after the extravaganza, she is two completely different people when she is in the scene and when she is outside the scene. From an average-level actor to gradually working hard to win three awards, this kind of hard work and persistence cannot be seen in many young artists today.
There are people outside the screen, but the details show the character.
At this award ceremony, after everyone saw that the Best Supporting Actress was also won by "News Queen" actor Gao Haining, Charmaine Sheh wiped away tears underneath. Many people must think that on such an occasion, if someone wins an award and the female star wiping her tears underneath is most likely performing. However, this idea is probably too narrow-minded. Because Gao Haining received this award, he did have a lot of advice and help from Charmaine Sheh.
It is said that Gao Haining asked Charmaine Sheh before accepting the role of "Thirty Only", and after the drama became popular, he asked her if she wanted to focus on moving north to develop. Charmaine Sheh suggested not to do it yet, analyzing the opportunities for actors in the Greater Bay Area to move north at that time. There are really not many opportunities.
and others mentioned it before, such as Yuan Qiongdan said. There was a venue manager who had been working with Charmaine Sheh who retired, and she specially made several kilograms of gold chains as gifts.
Including when she won the award for Best Actress, Charmaine Sheh’s own acceptance speech on stage was also very humane. She thought to herself that she never expected to encounter such good things again and again. Thanking all the behind-the-scenes staff was not a big official statement, but naming each name one by one, which showed Charmaine Sheh's heart. Really remember these people.
Let’s look at today’s domestic entertainment award ceremonies. Everyone on the scene is wearing high-end clothing. Everyone is marketing rich siblings and gods with a sense of atmosphere, but they have forgotten the most basic interactivity and human feelings.
