Erica Yuen Attacks TVB Executives and Tracey Ip

Erica Yuen who often creates stream was at it again. This time she revealed that in the past TVB locked her in a room and forced her to sign a 3 year contract. She also said that her enemy Tracey Ip was pretending to be sweet when actually she was a total different person off camera. She also talked about how some of the females who were speculated of being taken care of by wealthy men would influence the public and this would affect how they see other female artists. She personally was mistaken in the past and said loudly she was not a prostitute. It looks like Erica's statements will yet again create a scolding war.

Yesterday Erica accepted RTHK's programme hosted by Joey Leung. She was asked why she often criticised others in the public and not didn't take a step back? She said boldly and confidently "I do not need to polish other people's shoes. When I competed in Miss Hong Kong I wanted to become famous. My work style and freedom of speech will certainly affect my career. Previously a movie company and clients have stepped back because of the way I express my speech. There were also several Digital Service Broadcast Platforms that could not tolerate me either, such as TVB." (Have you left TVB now?) "There contracts are very harsh, A (Zero) monthly salary contract and they could freeze you at any time. When they sign you up it doesn't mean they will cherish you." (If you were a member of TVB's Management, what would you do?) "First of all I will not work with certain business operations. Will not use overbearing ways and will not be so narrow minded that you are not allowed to return to TVB from ATV. I will not shut you out like how Lawrence Ng was treated for filming an ATV series. Actually many ideas were originally created by ATV first, but due to insufficient resources they gave them to TVB instead.

Management forced me to sign a contract

Erica also stated that she left TVB due to being very unhappy "TVB has many artists, Virginia Lok really likes Vivien Yeo and has for many years but you still don't see her rise. If she wasn't favored how would she be now? Actually theres something that hasn't been revealed. In 2007 I had some friction with TVB. I was locked in a room and forced to sign a 3 year contract, they said each year they will add $100 for shows. In the room there were 3 TVB executives forcing me to sign the contract. I asked to let my family and lawyer to read the contents of the contract but they said to me they were not allowed to photocopy the contract and it was not to be taken from the room. They harshly said [You must immediately sign it now], they were threatening me, I don't need that type of management".

Also Joey Leung added that he had also signed an contract exactly the same and was also in a room. Every year they will add $100 for shows but he only had one TVB executive with him. He personally felt quite happy signing it. Erica continued "I asked my family and lawyer as it's basic respect. I have tried suing TVB but afterwards someone told me that the laywer fees will be very expensive and I should not. TVB eventually let me off. Personally I will not tolerate anything that's extremely unfair. Even if I don't eat your bowl of rice I will not die, just change industries."

Tracey Ip Fixed

Erica and Tracey Ip were from the same year of Miss Hong Kong. In the end Tracey was crowned the title. During that time there were people saying it was fixed. Erica said "There were some traces, We competed in August but during June there were already people inside the company saying that they Tracey had potential. I felt it was very strange. The Top 3 all had problems with languages, were not fluent in English or Mandarin. "(Didn't Tracey come back from England?) "Try and talk to her in English. The company stopped me hosting the show"E-Buzz " back then because I wrote an article in my blog about Amigo Tsui and Vinci Wong. A TVB executive stopped my work and when I requested to have a meeting a general manager turned it around and said the programme was changed. That TVB executive never took responsibilty." (Which artist in the entertainment industry is most pleasing?) "Artistes I would say Linda Chung. I am most afraid of some artistes who immediately text SMS or play the PSP after the Camera is Cut. Back then a host who felt very favored, still didn't enter the studio when the show was about to be aired in 5 minutes."

Erica decribed Tracy as someone who rarely reveal her true colors to other girls. "She would be very sweet and pretend to be naive. Any gossip she would pretend she didn't hear it. But when she was talking to me she would say she heard everything." (Did Tracey previously betray you?) "These type of news reports of artistes that seem like they have some wealthy men supporting them. I do wonder how it influences the public in seeing other female artistes. I don't want people to think I am a prostitute, previously I have been seen like that so thats why I am angry. So many years, the people who have been speculated of having rich men supporting them have not dared to show off so much. I do not know how to tell people I have lost to someone like that, those who are Miss Hong Kong and represent Hong Kong must have a base line. They can not be {greedy greedy greedy} and take it out and spend it. It's too over the top."

Erica Yuen appeared at an ATV programme event press conference yesterday. She stated that her contract with TVB had ended in August. Erica who is currently trying to get as much exposure as she can was asked about Tracey Ip who was recently reported being frozen by TVB.

Erica who started out in the industry with Tracey Ip competing in Miss Hong Kong 2005, was asked if she felt better when she heard about Tracey reported being frozen? "Don't be so black hearted, however in the past when I wrote about TVB's gossip in my blog, I wasn't allowed to continue. Tracey had dishing out a year of news reports and even made the Olympics affected by her gossip. Why wouldn't she be punished?"

(Are you sure she had been creating her own news?) "Come on, although I don't know Anna Yau Hoi Man well, I felt bad for her as she was being framed. Tracey buying a mansion is reasonable, but how can she afford to pay the mortgage for a 2 floor mansion with TVB wages? What if she cannot earn from stocks? Actually if she is that good at investing then she should really replace Joseph Yam (Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority). (There were reports that she had been closely seeing a Mainland Businessman?) "I don't know about that."

Erica Yuen prefers to invest in gold and property than stocks and shares

The Hang Seng index dropped down nearly 700 points yesterday. Rumour has it this is because the two oldies by Adam Cheng " Bar Bender " and " Return Home" were being re-broadcast , leading to ( 丁蟹效應 ) reappeared again. As a result the shares dropped. Erica has always been investimng in stocks and shares, she said " I am not surprised, the index goes up and down because of people. IT might be affected by Adam, but it usually lasted a day or two."

Erica exspressed nowadays, it isn't a good time to invest in stocks and shares. She is intending to invest in gold and property. " THe economy of America in not very good, the whole world is affected by it. Therefore I don't want to take this risk. On the contrary, I think gold and oil are worth investing. I had also thought about investing in the property market, but I am worried house price would go and down too. I have to think about it very carefully. It does take sometime to decide."

Tracey Ip and Mandy Cho attended the “海皇‧仁愛端陽「粽」有愛開展儀式” event. There were earlier rumours that Erica Yuen accused Tracey for back stabbing her to Virginia Lok TVB's high executive. Tracey denies these rumours and due to never reading these reports she doesn’t mind. Asked if she had offended Erica in the past for her to dislike her. Tracey smiles that she has always been someone easily targeted and not the type who would fight back. That’s probably why many people dislike her. Tracey also states that she is someone who is very afraid of trouble and would not likely get involved. Even if someone shouted at her she would just try to ignore it.

Mandy expressed while competing in Miss Hong Kong she had the opportunity to visit Sichuan to see the panda’s. She also took many photographs and these are very valuable memories. Since the Sichuan earthquake, Mandy is very concerned about the Panda’s and the bad conditions. She will do her best to fund-raise for the appeal. When asked if she will eat zong (bamboo wrapped steamed rice dumplings) with her rumoured boyfriend Stephen Huynh during the dragon boat festival. She replied “ Eating it with my family is enough”.
