Sandrine Pinna Tilts Her Head During French Kissing, Scares Wilber Pan

Wilber Pan and Sandrine Pinna (Chang Yung Yung) are currently filming FTV's new idol drama <<愛∞無限>> (official name: Endless Love). Sandrine was too into her character: she french kissed Wilber and tilted her head several times during the kiss. Her action scared Wilber and he backed away after the kiss; he even make several NG because of that. He explained: "When she was sucking my lips, totally scared me!" Maybe he was too shy to kiss in public, after this kissing scene, he jumped around randomly like a monkey and didn't know what to do.

In order to film this kissing scene, the two had to adjust for different angles and kissed at least 10 times. Director Lin He Lun even told Sandrine to turn her head during kissing. Wilber was scared by this hot kiss and the director yelled at him: "You kiss the way I tell you to kiss!"

The two just paired up to film this new idol drama and there are rumors about them lately. Even Wilber is exposed having a girlfriend. Wilber said he likes mature girls and Sandrine is one of those rare girls, who have mature thoughts when she is several years younger. But whether they are attracted to each other? He answered: "Infinite love." As for the "girlfriend," he explained she is his middle school classmate.

Staff joked if they don't group as a band, they can be actors. Kary expressed it was happy during the making of this album. In the beginning she worried the company would reject them using nuthouse as the concept for their album cover, but they received support in the end. They hope to bring a fresh feeling to everyone.

TVB & CASH Royalty Issues, JSG Awards May Stop At Any Time


TVB and HKRIA (Universal, Warner, Sony, EMI) have been in a royalty dispute since last December. HKRIA increased the royalty fee from the initial 5 million to 15 million, TVB felt that this was not reasonable and refused to pay the large fee.

The chairman of the 4 record companies (Cheng Man Chiu) admitted that there has not been any progress, the issue has already entered the legal stage, let the lawyers from both sides handle the issue. When asked if they will make a concession? He said: "Ah, making a concession does not mean we have come to an agreement. Right now TVB still has many series and shows using the Big 4 record companies music. (TVB is breaking the law and doesn't know?) I don't dare to say that, just feel that it's strange, don't know how to calculate it. We have to see what the court says, see if its reasonable."

Joey Yung, Leo Ku affected too

The royalty issue has been quite troublesome for TVB. Although TVB produced their own music program and having to push their own artists to become singers, unfortunately the success is only average. As for the Big 4 singers, because they get less exposure they're popularity is going down. Both sides are suffering. It was understood that TVB recently encountered another dilemma. More than a year ago, TVB has already started discussing royalties with CASH, but up until today they're still deadlocked. Although CASH only require the royalties be 10-20%, this still amounts to millions of dollars. TVB chairman "6th aunt" Mona Fong felt that the price is not reasonable, and requested that CASH reduce the fees, causing the two companies to not come to a contract agreement. An insider said that the situation is not going well, this greatly involves TVB because most of Hong Kong's music composers and lyricists are CASH employees. Once the relationship between the two companies are broken, TVB's flagship music program or even the may get cut at any time. If that happens, besides the Big 4 singers being cut off including Eason Chan, "god-son" Hacken Lee and Kay Tse, even Joey Yung, Leo Ku, "biological son" Raymond Lam will suffer. Once the 4 station music awards gets affected by the royalty issue, it will be officially canceled.

TVB General Manager (Lee Bo On) said: "The royalty issues have already been sent to the Copyright Royalty Tribunal. We don't guarantee we will use other ways to solve this. (The will continue to happen at the end of the year?) Will still happen, there was never anything between us. (What about "JSG Selections"?) No plans of not doing it!"

CASH representative (Elton) reveals: "This issue involves the whole world, composers, lyricists and the benefits to 170 million people. (Need to have results this year?) Yes, TVB should respect the composers and lyricists. As for our relationship, we have collaborated well in the last 10+ years. (Rumored that the discussions aren't going well!) If the discussions are successful, it is not convenient for me to say it! We will still continue, nothing to hold us back." Since this issue involves composers and lyricists to every son, if TVB don't agree to the royalties with CASH, does that mean TVB can't use the majority of the songs? Elton frankly said: "You can say that. To TVB it is a really big impact, but cannot just look at it that way because this also involves many other musicians." Does TVB have to pay very high royalty fees? Elton said: "Can't say that it's very high, it is reasonable because every song they use is a public broadcast." Ask if the in December, will that be affected? Elton said because this year they are working on another project, so the competition will happen.
