Media Asia Interested in Signing Bosco Wong Once His TVB Contract Expires?

Following Charmaine Sheh Si Man, it was revealed that several other TVB artists, such as Bernice Liu Bik Yee and Joe Ma Tak Chung, intend to leave the company as well. Although Bosco Wong Chung Chak’s contract will not expire until two years later, he has been hotly pursued by other companies. Media Asia expressed their interest and a mainland company was interested in signing him as well.

Allegedly, Bosco was more interested in collaborating with Media Asia, who had their eye on him for a long time. In 2008, Media Asia signed a music contract with Bosco. Media Asia’s intent was to develop a close relationship with Bosco and sign him as an artist once his TVB contract expires. Allegedly, Peter Lam already discussed his terms with Bosco, promising to establish Bosco’s position in the music industry and elevate him to a leading actor in the film industry. Since Bosco was interested in developing his film career , Media Asia had the clout to do so. Once Bosco’s contract expires in two-and-a-half years, it may be possible that he will star in films with Andy Lau Tak Wah.

Currently filming Sneak Attack "潛行狙擊", Bosco responded to inquiries regarding Media Asia’s interest in signing him, “I still have many years left in my TVB contract. I have not been thinking about this matter.”

Reporters contacted Media Asia executive, Chan Chi Kong, as to whether the company was interested in signing Bosco once his TVB contract expires. Mr. Chan said, “All along, Media Asia believes that Bosco has a bright future. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have signed him as recording artist. We are unclear as to when his TVB contract will expire. If he decides not to renew his TVB contract, we are definitely interested in strengthening our collaboration. His looks, acting, and singing skills are quite good and there should be many more opportunities for further development.”

When reporters contacted TVB executive, Virginia Lok Yi Ling, she sounded surprised. “What? Bosco Wong still has a lengthy contract at TVB! Is this promotion for his music album? His new songs have been airing on the radio.”
