[The Sun 16/04/07]Kenix & Frankie Could be Joining the Opposition
With two of TVB's former high ranking executives Mr Ho Ding Kwan and Mr Louis Page joining the ATV board of late and reports that i-Cable will also be making their own drama productions, Kenix Kwok and Frankie Lam were spotted earlier in discussions at a hotel Coffee Shop with executives from i-Cable.
Suggestions indicate that after their success as an on-screen couple in "Ten Brothers", i-Cable are interested in inviting Frankie and Kenix to film a series together again for them. As ATV and i-Cable do not offer long restrictive contracts like TVB, they have become a very attractive proposition for many artistes. Asked about the invitation to film for i-Cable, Kenix and Frankie indicate that they are very sincere, but they have not decided yet, so they were able to discuss their position.
TVB Board Director Mrs Li attended a separate event and asked about Mr Ho joining ATV, she says: "It is a very normal thing. He resigned last year." As for whether she is worried about him taking staff away, she did not respond, but she added later that he had retired and not resigned.

**********************
there have been rumors recently that TVB artists such as Ada, Jessica, & even the former TVB actor Gallen Lo are joining ATV. however, all of them have denied such speculations. i'm not sure if this is the same case for Frankie & Kenix, but i really hope they'll refuse ATV's offer. ATV seems to be doing pretty bad financially, & their series usually have very low ratings. Kenix really should learn Frankie's lessons 10 years ago so she will not make the same mistakes.

Angelish,
Do you have the news that talks about Frankie Lam's lesson ten years ago? Will you post it some time? I'd like to read it. Thanks.
hi San,
lol no, the lesson i mean after Frankie returned to TVB from ATV, he lost his position & wasnt being favored anymore. notice how bad TVB treated Frankie years ago when they always gave him supporting roles, those that werent outstanding at all? it seems to me that TVB doesnt like their artists to join ATV, their only competitor in HK. there is no article about it. this is just my thought, but there were many fans who agreed w/ me at cinple forum several yrs ago about TVB's treatment of Frankie.
