HOT SHOT

The plot: Story details have been sketchy but it's about three outstanding basketballers from two competing teams.

The 13-episode drama serial reportedly took three years of planning and cost NT$60m ($2.7m) to make.

The producers have sold broadcast rights to various overseas markets, including Japan and Korea, and recovered production costs even before the serial opens in the middle of this year.

Its star Wu Chun told The New Paper recently: 'I'm not worried about competition with the other drama serials or movies, we just wanted to make a good production.'

Hot shots: This would seem to be THE basketball dream team.

The lethal combination of Taiwan's dashing dudes - Wu Chun, Show Luo and Jerry Yen - makes this a drama serial to watch out for.

What's more, the hot trio will show off real skills, said Wu Chun, who used to be a national basketball player in Brunei.

Jerry Yen is just as accomplished a player - he was spot on with nine out of 10 shots he made during filming.

Sizzles or fizzles: It's salsa hot!

If cool Jerry is not the ball in your net, there's always wholesome Wu Chun or funny guy Show to drool over.

So bring out the popcorn and save the finished tub to catch your drool!

It was reported when they finished filming in Hualien the other day, they had a small basketball game (3 vs 3) for 2 hours. When asked to comment on each other's basketball skills. Jerry joked that Show was good at pulling down others' pants, and when others tried to respond, he got the score already. Show commented that Jerry could shoot with both left and right hands. The main key is that Jerry always has a smile on his face when he shoots the ball, and others always forget to guard when they look at his dimples.

Show Luo (Xiao Zhu), Jerry Yan & Wu Zun starring in GTV's "Hot Shot" [Patriarchal], is quickly becoming "3P Broke Back Shot", the day before the 3's first scene together, Xiao Zhu first had to fly over Wu Zun then over to Jerry's car "shake the car", because Xiao Zhu's strength was too strong, he actually dented a hole.

The 3's fans have been supporting, but personally the 3 has no gun powder. Xiao Zhu and Wu Zun were going through their scenes under the huge sun, they were both soaked with sweat all over, and even took off the shirts, comparing who had more sweat; Jerry and Xiao Zhu during breaks shared taro chips, Jerry still didn't leave even after his scenes were done, staying behind to watch Xiao Zhu act.

Xiao Zhu's scenes in "Hot Shot" is really heavy, the first shot he was arranged to chase back what his grandmother gave him "Golden Basket Ball", not caring for himself jumping from buses, zig zagging through busy traffic, displaying personal bouncing abilities. Seeing Wu Zun handsomely riding in a motorcyle, Jerry driving in air conditioning, his sour heart says: "This scene is really big, but why are both of them so relaxing!"

After Wu Zun's agent, it is Show Luo agent's turn to release news. Today, a news article on Lian He Bao reported that Show once wanted to quit after the media ignored the fact that he is also Hot Shot's main lead, the same as Yan Cheng Xu. It was also reported how busy he is.

Obviously this news article was released by GTV. It was reported that the overseas copyright of Hot Shot has been sold for NT$67.9 millions but the production fee is estimated to be NT80 millions, much more than the previous budget of NT$60 millions. Then it was reported how great GTV is that it decides to continue the project, as its goal is to promote Chinese dramas to overseas markets and TW's tourism. In the last paragraph, it was reported that the amount of NT67.9 millions has not included the profits from commercials or official merchandise. I think it has not included the profits from the release of official DVD/cd/vcd neither, not mentioning the sales of overseas copyright is not complete.

Well, with Yan Cheng Xu alone, TH's copyright was sold for over NT100 millions around the world, with US20,000 per episode in Japan. Now, HS's copyright was sold for US30,000 per episode in Japan because of Jerry, but the total copyright sales amount is smaller? Either this is misleading or GTV should fire the one who did the mathematics.

“Basketball of Fire” Begins Filming, “Fans Support” Competition

11/21/2007

The country’s 3 biggest male idols, Jerry Yan, Show Luo, and Wu Zun are filming a new drama “Basketball of Fire.” Today, November 21st, they held an open press conference, which not only attracted tons of fans, but ever since the preparation of filming, there has been a constant “battle” of pay, rank, and role. It was thought that during the press conference, they’d officially talk about this “battle,” but it turned out that none of the three actors had any sort of resentment towards each other, “no smell of gun powder.” Turns out that Jerry and Wu Zun had known each other before, and had been good friends with Show, so the three just expressed that the ranking “battle” is all works of the media, and that they hope everyone will put their focus on the drama performances. At the press conference, they officially announced the commencement of the filming of “Basketball of Fire.”

This is unlike any other drama, “Basketball of Fire” has very high production cost. They plan to film 90 minute episodes, 13 in total, $60 Million TWD. They’re planning to release this drama in the summer of 2008 in complement with the Olympics fever. And at the end of next year, overseas countries that include: Japan, Korean, South Eastern Asia, Hong Kong, and more will also begin to air the drama. This will definitely trigger an unprecedented wave in the Asia.


In the drama, Coco Chiang (Jiang Yi) will be playing the role of a basketball coach; she also attended the press conference as well. Since, “Angel Lover,” she will re-enter idol drama acting. This time she will not only have to keep her picturesque image on screen, but she will have to study basketball moves and reinforce the character’s personality. This is going to be a breakthrough for Coco.


Show Luo’s Love for basketball is renowned in the entertainment industry. The role he’ll be playing, “Yuan Da Ying,” made a big impression on him. He [Yuan Da Ying] has an extremely friendly personality, agility and potential unbounded, with a basketball dream to acheieve; he’ll be a vibrant character in Basketball of Fire. As for Jerry, he’ll be playing the role of the wealthy, basketball prodigy star, Dong Fang Xiang. Not only did he [Dong Fang Xiang] establish an undefeated record, he’s also a very welcomed basketball player. For this drama, Jerry had specially made time to film it, in hopes that everyone will be able to see a different him. Wu Zun’s character “Wu Ji Zun,” is on the enemy team against Jerry and Show, he [Wu Ji Zun] has held 3 consecutive high school records as MVP, and has been imaginary enemy of many basketball players. In the drama, there will be amazing basketball sequences between Dong Fang Xiang and Yuan Da Ying and Wu Ji Zun.

At the press conference, there was absolutely no sign of rivalry amongst the three actors, but the fans off stage were fighting amongst themselves. They all really cared about their favorite idols’ ranking and roles - the scene it was like a competition between fans of the actors. This drama, “Basketball of Fire” with the collaboration of 3 big idols will definitely break a record of idol drama TV ratings.
