Although there are still two weeks until the 48th TVB Anniversary Awards, Chilam Cheung (張智霖) and Charmaine Sheh (佘詩曼) were recognized yesterday at the station’s magazine awards ceremony. Chilam and Charmaine received the Most Popular Advertising King and Queen awards respectively at the 2014 TVB Weekly Brand Awards. Dodging the question on her commercial fees, Charmaine smiled and said, “I didn’t do any calculations but I’ve known a lot of these advertising companies for over 10 years. We’re like friends. I’ll let my manager handle everything [with regards to increasing compensation after receiving an award]. I’m happiest when I see myself on posters while I’m out shopping.” Raymond Lam and Charmaine Sheh For TV King and Queen Although Raymond Lam (林峯) is an audience favorite, he already admitted defeat in this year’s TV King battle. Due to work commitments in Mainland China, Raymond will not be attending the Anniversary Awards on December 15. However, Charmaine fully supported Raymond’s chances, “Maybe he’ll suddenly show up? Personally, I’m voting for him. It’s a one-vote-per-person system this year and I think it’s very fair – we’ll see who has more fans.” Chilam was a hot favorite to win TV King last year but lost the award to Dayo Wong (黃子華), who did not attend the Anniversary Awards. Chilam commented that despite Raymond’s absence at the awards ceremony this year, this does not rule out his chances of the winning the award. Failing to clinch TV King last year, Chilam did not hold any grudges against TVB and even expressed his desire to become an award presenter. Besides having confidence in Charmaine in winning Best Actress, Chilam also expressed his support for Raymond, Wayne Lai (黎耀祥), Roger Kwok (郭晉安) and Ruco Chan (陳展鵬). Creds: Oncc
