Dayo Wong Thanks Everyone on Facebook; TVB Awards Rating Peaked 40 Points

TV King Dayo Wong is returning to Hong Kong tomorrow to personally accept the award at a ceremony TVB will be holding for him. Yesterday at 2am, Dayo thanked everyone for their support on Facebook. He also uploaded a photo to accompany his thank you message: "I got all of your support! Thank you all!" Many Netizens supported Dayo by giving him a "Like" on Facebook. When Sheren Tang learned Dayo became TV King, she expressed it was surprising: "Last night was a breakthrough, the TV King title was given to someone who didn't go. No matter what the reason may be, it is considered a surprise. Congrats to Dayo! You won in the hottest way!"

Last night's live broadcast of the TVB Anniversary Awards 2013 resulted in high ratings. The average was 34 points (~ 2.18 million viewers) and peaked at 40 points (~2.57 million viewers) when Dodo Cheng made the call to let Dayo know he won the award. This makes the awards show the highest rated variety show of 2013.

However, there were also 21 complaints on the results. The complainers were not happy with the results and speculated there was cheating going on. Also, they were displeased by the use of foul language.

'Boundy Lady' Premiere 29PTS(Peaked 31PTS), Dayo Wong: Maybe My Last TVB Series

Dayo Wong's new TVB series Bounty Lady premiered on Monday and had been well received. The premiere rating averaged 29 points and peaked at 31 points. There has also been heated discussions on the series online. The audience waited a bitter four years for Dayo's comeback, but that doesn't compare to the audience waiting ten years for 'Sam Gor' (Francis Ng) comeback, thus Triumph in the Skies II is still leading with the highest premiere rating of 32 points, peaking at 35 points. 

Aside from Dayo catching the attention in the premiere episode, 'Sai Sai Lap' (Siu Bo) also stole the limelight with her village girl role. Yesterday TVB received feedback from two people, one complimented the series had alarming dialogue and Siu Bo's acting is outstanding, but the other criticized the quality of the series is just average. The Communications Authority received 1 complaint on one of the artists' poor acting skills. 

Netizens enjoyed some of Dayo's 'golden lines' in the series, such as his comment to Siu Bo's character, "It takes me a few minutes to look from the left side to the right side of your face" and his compliment that Siu Bo is "very sweet", she's only fat because she "sweeten herself too much". 

In an interview, Dayo expressed Bounty Lady maybe his last TVB series. "After I finished this series, I gone crazy! I don't know either, perhaps this may be my last TVB series because I don't want to film comedy series anymore, I want to film a drama or a political series. Just like the movie called The Island of Greed, but if there isn't an election by 2017, then its going to be difficult to film a series of this genre. So, I really don't know when I'll be in another series." It was rumored he'll be co-hosting TV show with Dodo Cheng? Dayo expressed he turned it down because he enjoys short films more. "I also hope to collaborate with Dodo and I do have interest in hosting, but it didn't fit in my schedule so I had to turn it down. I have something I'm busy with. (What are you busy with?) I've picked up a new hobby of shooting mini films! (Mini films? You mean short films?) Yes! But I like to call them mini films, its a lot of fun! (Last time you invited Sean Lau and Wayne Lai to guest star, who will you invite this time?) Wah! I cannot incur so many friendship debts!"

Dayo Wong Risks His Life Riding with Kate Tsui to Boost TV Ratings 

Yesterday Dayo Wong, Kate Tsui, Sharon Chan, Jazz Lam, Toby Leung, Siu Bo and the rest of TVB new series Bounty Lady attended the promotional event. Dayo performed the theme song during the promotion and joked: "Everyone knows you must pay to listen to me sing! Everybody $100, but its me who pays you!" When Dayo carried Kate, it appeared there was some exposure, which frightened Kate so much she quickly covered herself. When speaking of tomorrow's series premiere? Dayo expressed he feels excited: "So that's why I came dressed in a Sashimi chef's uniform in hope to bring the series fresh out of the oven to everyone! If there are good ratings, I will wear this uniform for a whole month. (Weren't you going to kneel all the way home?) I'll wear this uniform and kneel inside Kate Tsui's mini van, so she can take me home. She's a pretty dangerous driver!" Kate expressed he's "killing her". She said: "He has to risk his life to ride with me." 

Earlier Kate expressed if the ratings reaches 40 points, then Dayo Wong will kneel home. Asked whether Dayo has confidence the ratings will actually hit 40 points? He asked reporters what the usual ratings are on average nowadays? When he learned the average ratings are in the 20s-30 points, he joked: "I don't have much confidence, but definitely have confidence to maintain the current ratings. (TVB is depending on you to rescue their ratings, the audience also have confidence in you!) Right, you mean rely on pushing the ball to me. Actually I don't have much to depend on. Its safer to depend on Kate Tsui!" However, Dayo expressed the premiere episode definitely won't be disappointing. As for Kate, she expressed she will regard the ratings positively. "Up until now, the feedback we got from the promotional clips have been pretty good. I hope Dayo can really kneel home!" 

There were body pillows with the cast photos printed on them at the event. Kate was asked whether she fears fans may have other fantasies on her body pillow? She said: "Its frightening. I'm really scared there might be an emerge of some 1:1 (prostitute) products. I can't imagine it!" Dayo wanted to take Kate's body pillow home, "I want to put it on my balcony, so when the magazine reporters come to take pictures, I'll lift it up! (Creates rumors to promote the series?) Nope, I pursued Kate for two months and failed. I don't dare to think about it anymore."
