    Gallen Lo Ka Leung left TVB in 2003 and joined Media Asia. In the last five years, he has been focusing on making “real money” in China. Recently, ATV has been aggressively recruiting artists. Gallen Lo was hotly pursued by both TVB and ATV.
    Gallen started filming TVB series, "When a Dog Falls in Love With a Cat" in August. He did not dismiss the idea of working for ATV after completing filming for TVB.

    Since joining Media Asia, it was rumored that Gallen earned approximately $30 million (HKD). Earning an impressive income and married to a good wife, Gallen can continue to concentrate on being television’s #1 Brother once again.

    Last year, Gallen moved from his 2,000 square feet home rental into another luxury house. With sprawling ocean views and 3,000 square feet of space, the rent costs $100,000 per month. It is obvious Gallen has upgraded his lifestyle to greater luxury!

    Responding to the issue that Gallen was a hot commodity among TVB and ATV, he laughed loudly.

    G= Thanks to TVB, who has been re-broadcasting my old series, the audience did not forget me!

    R= When will your contract with Media Asia expire? Will you sign with TVB once again?

    G= My contract will not expire until 2009.

    R= You are currently filming a TVB series?

    G= Yes, the name of the twenty-episode series is "When a Dog Falls in Love" With a Cat. The series also stars Myolie Wu and Lui Fong.

    R=You wanted to quickly complete your outstanding episodes with TVB and finish your contract obligations?

    G= Yes. Also Producer Tommy Leung is very sincere. It is also a big challenge to work with dogs and cats. You know I always love a good challenge!

    R= After you fulfill your filming obligations with TVB, will you work for ATV?

    G= I will leave that decision to Media Asia. They will negotiate the best terms for me.

    R= Does that mean you will work for anyone who offers the most money?

    G= Aside from money, you also have to consider the other party’s sincerity and working environment.

    R= Some sources claim that you earned $30 million (HKD) over the last few years while working in China?

    G= Let’s not talk about money, otherwise I will be pursued by the Tax Department!


    A Virtuous Housewife
    Since Gallen’s wife, Fong Man Yee, resigned from her management position at I-Cable, she became a stay-at-home mother to take care of their son. Mrs. Lo was spotted in casual clothing last week. She smiled warmly at reporters. Apparently, she enjoys being a stay-at-home mother.

    Since Gallen was branded as the #1 Brother in the past, ATV must have offered him an attractive fee. ATV executive, Ho Ding Kwan, actively recruited Gallen. An ATV Public Representative said, “Of course ATV would love to have Gallen join! We have been in contact with him, so there may be an opportunity to collaborate in the future.”


    Since accepting filming projects in China, Gallen’s filming fee was estimated at $120,000 (HKD) per episode. In a typical twenty-episode series, he would earn at least $2 million (HKD). Thus Gallen quietly became a millionaire without anyone noticing! Without accounting for his fees garnered from movies, shows, and ads, his income from China series alone accounts for $30 million (HKD).
