Following [To Catch the Uncatchable] and [Men Don't Cry], Dayo Wong will be returning in late September to film new TVB series produced by Cheung Kin Man. This time, Dayo will become a genius entrepreneur who saves a lot of businesses. He will be paired up with Charmaine Sheh, starting from bickering enemies to lovers. As Dayo once complained that he doesn't get paired with fadans often, TVB arranged for him to work with 5 fadans.

Currently filming TVB series [Turbulence of East Meets West] in Guangxi, Charmaine expressed delight to be working with Dayo and does not mind portraying an ugly role if necessary. This is because she has never really filmed a comedy series since entering entertainment business. She is excited to have her wish fulfilled.

Actually in 1999 Charmaine had a chance to work with Dayo. At that time Dayo is filming [Justice Sung 2] with Cheung Tat Ming and Charmaine was supposed to have a role in that series. However a week after filming begins she was transferred to film [Detective Investigation Files 4]. Her original role in [Justice 2] was replaced by another person. Therefore Charmaine expressed regret of not having fate with Dayo in the past. After completing [Turbulence], Charmaine will be taking a long break to accompany her mother is USA, taking the opportunity to recharge herself and prepares to create sparks with Dayo.

According to sources, Dayo's role in the new series is very intelligent and has an attitude. He is a genius entrepreneur but only concerned about making money. Due to a mistake, he learned a lesson and stop emphasising on money and decided to become a ‘business doctor’. However, his methods are very weird and set up deathtraps before turning the situation around. People have mixed reactions toward him.

As for Charmaine, in the beginning she mistook him for a bad person therefore she constantly ruins his plans and goes against him. From fighting they fell in love. The series plotline will be in chapter format (different story every few episodes) and there will be a lot of attractive actresses guest starring the series such as Bernice Liu and Angela Tong. All of them likes him therefore Dayo definitely will have a good time filming the series.

Though I went to sleep 6:30am this morning, I didn't expect this news! All along I was expecting her to either work with Nick Cheung or Chilam for her new series in October. But Dayo - Charmaine is a fresh combination and I'm happy that she is working with Dayo as he is a very talented comedian. I'm just a little sad that it's not with Chilam...

For the new series, it will start filming in late September/early October. It's a modern series with approximately 20-25 episodes.
