TVB plagiarizes again, Linda Chung watches the Mainland drama series to learn about her role

Following Beauty Knows No Pain and The Mysteries of Love accused of plagiarism, TVB plagiarizes again. This time it's Mainland popular drama Dwelling Narrowness (蝸居), the TVB version will start next month tentatively titled Men & Women Chooses Residence (抉宅男女) (TN: that's direct translation.). The four leading stars Linda Chung, Joyce Tang, Ron Ng and Michael Tse will be entangled in a relationship, while Michael Miu and Sonjia Kwok are a pair. In the series, Linda's role is almost exactly the same as Dwelling's "Hai Zao", both is not hesitant to make immoral transactions to get up top.

Nelson Cheung, the series producer, responded to the obvious plagiarism, he does not feel it's a problem: "Have to share and promote the good stuff. The new series is about housing conflicts. Shanghai and Hong Kong are the same, citizens living in houses face personal problems and the series reveals a secret to the Hong Kong viewers."

As for Linda who was busy filming for Yes Sir, No Sir earlier said yesterday that she already got the Dwelling Narrowness DVDs and plans to watch the series after work: "Producer said this clearly, told me to put in the effort and watch Hao Zao's character. (Obvious plagiarism?) I am talking about artists, it is our responsibility to act out the role well."

Sonjia Kwok does not know if she'll accept the series, but she said if she can work with Michael Miu, she feels honored. She said: "I have worked with him before in Au Revoir Shanghai, but I already died right when the series started. (Plagiarisms?) The world is a big copy, the Western Infernal Affairs is copied from Hong Kong too!"

Sonjia Kwok lazy to care about Michael Tao's love life

Yesterday Sonjia Kwok attended the Keui Kei Bakery Mong Kok store opening ceremony. This is the third time Sonjia did the ribbon cutting for this bakery, she smiled and said that cutting the ribbon for the third time, besides earning more money, the bakery even gave her a large supply of their products. Because of this, she jokes that she has gained some weight, but Sonjia then said: "I lost weight actually, but it's good to gain weight too. I have been busy shooting for the costume drama Jade Palace Lock Heart (宮鎖心玉) lately, the temperatures are over 40 degrees C every day, it's really exhausting. (Are you now attacking into Mainland?) Hope so. Today I came back especially for this ribbon cutting ceremony, then I have to go back to Mainland."

As to rumored boyfriend Michael Tao recently having rumors, Sonjia coldly expressed: "Don't care about it so much. For my own love life, I am currently just waiting for it to come, can't rush it." Speaking of Miriam Yeung's earlier support for "the remaining women" on Weibo, Sonjia said that although she's single, she's still living happily: "No worries, no troubles. But when I get married in the future, I will definitely let everyone know. But if dating, not necessarily, right now I really don't have a boyfriend, it's been many years since I dated!"
