"Queen of supporting roles" Chu Me turned away from TVB because of poor pay, long-term unemployment

Although this used to be the place that brought her to the title of "queen of supporting roles", it was her irresponsible and unprofessional working attitude that made Chu Me turn away from TVB.

TVB is one of three free-to-air radio stations in Hong Kong, the other two being RTHK and HKTVE. In the period 1967-1973, this was the only station broadcasting in Hong Kong, so Hong Kongers today are still used to calling this station Radio (無綫電視, meaning Television) or simply is Radio (無綫). Today, TVB remains one of the largest Chinese-language broadcasters in the world.

From the late 1980s to the early 1990s was the period of peak development and sublimation of the Hong Kong film production industry in general and of TVB in particular. In the "golden decade" period, the radio station of Fragrant Port had more than 500 films, large and small, released a year. TVB's works are pervasive and are an indispensable spiritual food in the lives of Asian people.

Many Hong Kong film and pop stars have started their careers at TVB through dramas produced by TVB. TVB special events such as TVB's annual celebration are widely broadcast. TVB also organizes talent shows such as Miss Hong Kong and the international Miss China beauty pageant. Successful contestants can get a contract with TVB and represent Hong Kong in world-class beauty pageants, including Miss World.

Movie genres that are familiar and familiar such as police - criminal, martial arts, civil war, business, family, and profession are all raised by TVB to bring screens to the screen, attracting millions of viewers. audience, becoming the "specialty" of the Hong Kong station and a reference channel for filmmakers. Under the station, movie stars were discovered and supported to become top showbiz stars such as Luu Duc Hoa, Chau Tinh Tri, Chau Nhuan Phat, Luong Trieu Vy, Co Thien Lac, Truong Ve Kien and talented artists such as Le Tu, Ly Gia Han, Xa Thi Man, Truong Man Ngoc, Thai Thieu Phan...

In the period of "making money" under the founder Thieu Dat Phu, TVB's works in any form left an impression and made an impression on the public. However, after 2004, the station's films rarely had any resonance and were warmly received as in the past, even under the ax of public opinion due to abuse of hot scenes and violence. Not only that, the station is often complained because of the old-fashioned three-cent technique, the script is uncreative and patchy like a mixed hot pot, and the young actors are weak in acting.

In addition, the fact that TVB consistently follows the path of "self-sufficiency", going against the flow of the market economy is also the cause of the production stagnation and the lack of proper broadcasting. According to QQ, every year TVB invests its own production capital.

Chu Me Me is 67 years old this year, originally a singer, she conquered the audience thanks to her outstanding singing ability and unique style, quickly making a name for herself in the singing world. During this time, she got to know Ma Duc Chung's cousin, two like-minded people quickly held hands on the wedding ceremony, a happy and fulfilling life.

While still young and a successful singing career, Chu Me Me continued to try new fields when joining the film world in the early 90s, starting her path as an actress. Although she did not have professional training, she still received a lot of love thanks to her natural acting. The actress has performed many roles vividly, bringing a lot of joy and laughter to the audience. The two most impressive roles of Chu Me Me must be mentioned as the role of Lady Duong in Duong Ba Ho Diem Thu Huong and Vuong Nhi Muoi in Reaction Force.

However, after completing the Response Force (2021), I saw that Chu Me Me no longer accepted to shoot new films but returned to Singapore to live. From the previously revealed images, it can be seen that Chu Me Me has a very well-off and comfortable life in a large villa thanks to her overseas tours. Seeing these pictures, I'm still thinking if she's thinking about retiring?

Chu Me Me still has a contract with TVB (for 1 year - filming about 5 gameshows) but in a year when she returned to Singapore, TVB did not find her to act in movies, but only invited her to participate in entertainment programs, with a fee of about 1000$. HK (about 3 million Vietnamese Dong) only. Not to mention, Chu Me Me is a person with rich experience in singing, but since joining TVB until now, the station has not arranged for her to be the MC of any singing program so that she can promote her forte. In the past, Chu Mi Me also revealed that TVB's salary is not even enough to fill gas, but she still accepts invitations to participate in many programs to show her gratitude to the station for making her famous. Previously, the actress did not mind low remuneration, but this time, TVB was really humble, with this fee she firmly refused. I've worked hard for TVB for more than 30 years but it's not appreciated, just listening to it makes me feel sad, isn't it?

For TVB enthusiasts, Chu Me Me is just a supporting role, often known by the nickname "green leaf" in a movie. She has also never played a leading role. The opening clause of the contract is that the artists only take on a certain amount of work and are not bound, they are allowed to perform elsewhere, as long as they do not appear on another TV station in Hong Kong. However, supporting actors usually only sign short-term contracts with TVB, so they do not enjoy other incentives, nor do they have a fixed salary even though they have worked for the TV company for many years.
