Sammul Chan and Leila Tong act as a couple for the first time
This movie depicts the tragic love story of the last princess of the Qing Dynasty, the daughter of the Yu Wang family, Yun Xiang, and the opera actor, Wen Liang Yu, which does not give them the opportunity to be together. Not only with the opera actor, the princess also is in love with 3 other men. The story is intertwined in the gangster world, the grudges between the rich, etc.
Besides the fascinating plot, the extravagant and well-balanced casts also are the major attraction of the movie. The actress who plays as the princess, Huo Si Yan, was once a nominee of the Hong Kong Golden Award best newcomer. Princess Yun Xiang is in love not only with Wen Liang Yu, but also Fang Tian Yu, and Shen Shi Hao, which are respectively played by the one of TVB’s siu sang, Sammul Chan, the mainland actor, Yan Kuan, and the Taiwanese actor, Sun Xing. One of TVB’s fadan, Leila Tong, plays as Li Kai Xin. Li Kai Xin is a female dancer and singer which disguised as a male shop attendant. For the sake of paying her mother’s debt, Kai Xin was forced to marry a eunuch, but at the wedding night, she killed him accidentally. After that, she found her father which she had lost touch for years, thus making her a wealthy young woman. But she still chose to be a dancer and singer at the same place she used to be. At this time, the triangle-love-story of Kai Xin, Wen Liang Yu, and princess Yun Xiang takes place.
This movie also stars Xiao Qiang, Cheng Li Sha, Wu Ma, Hong Xin, etc as supporting actors, as guest performers. This big budget movie spends 1,800,000 yuan for settings, etc, thus TLP is called as the most anticipated drama of the year by the paparazzi.
Xiao Qiang and Sun Xing worked hard as supporting actors
Besides the interesting plot, TLP also gives some of its actors some first-time experiences, which can make another topic to be talked. TVB’s fadan, Leila Tong said, she had quite a lot of first-time experiences filming TLP. Leila, for the first time, acted as a female dressed as a male & a prostitute; they were huge roles for her as she had to display her innermost feelings well here. For the Taiwanese actor, Sun Xing, TLP gave him the opportunity to sing an opera song. He was a bit nervous about his performance, but at the time of shooting for that scene he filmed it successfully for only once. It was snowing at the night of the filming of that scene, and he was singing with the stage’s floor full of candles. As for the beautiful Taiwanese actress, Xiao Qiang, acting in the ancient period was her first time. She starred as a magician, and she had to ‘fly here and there’ while wearing the court female uniform. Although she only starred in 1 episode, but as a magic show lover, it was an interesting experience for her.
Because of its aesthetic scenes and wonderful actors, TLP has won the online vote of the ‘drama you like most.’ It also has won some other votes like the number one classified drama and the national number one drama. [by Uh_Oh]
