Joe Chen and Blue Lan major transformation in New Drama

For the new drama, 'Easy Fortune Happy Life', both Blue Lan and Joe Chen went for glamour photoshots for a modern magazine and the photoshots are pleasing and pleasant for viewing.

Both appeared to have diverse characters but both are independent individuals. Joe Chen matured from a girl yearning for love to an independent lady while Blue Lan

changed from an unsociable and solitary person to become a warm and matured man.

And the demarcation for the changes is when they turned 25 years old. Joe Chen said that when she was 25 year old, she was ‘frozen’ by her ‘managing company’ and her love life was also not smooth. She longed for someone to hold her hands for the rest of her life then. And her relationship with her boyfriend was to wait for him to love her and he was always busy.

Now she understands herself better and bring to fruition in her acting career. She mentioned that the year when she reached 25 years old was a demarcation for changes. Whatever you need in life, you will realize it. She no longer depends on a guy nor have romantic thinking about love.

For Blue Lan, it is the opposite. When he reached 25 years old, he began to be more cordial and sociable. Before then, he was very self-centred and think little of others. He is like a gust of wind, carefree and go back home straight after acting. Now he will mix around with the filming crew as though they are one in a family and become more considerate and thoughtful.

Even in his views on love now changes, he will not be so self-centred. His former girlfriends felt that he did not treasure them enough. Now he knows how to take care of others and smilingly said, ‘Everyone is brought up by their parents and hence he should treasure the girl.

On the side, Roy Chiu also said that he is anticipating the drama crew will give him a kiss scene too.

Blue & Roy don't have much to say, but during filming, if they got on the topic of cars, they would talk non-stop. Blue laughed saying: "Roy is strange, everytime he talks to me about cars, his hands will imitate changing gears and his feet will imitate braking, it's as if he's having a seizure!"

The two of them have good interactions but do not bother with polite speech. They are both very sincere people. (Live report; When Joe was putting on make-up, Blue arrived later at the photoshoot place. Joe turned around and shouted "Mr Lan you're here!" Her tone was just like a auntie.)

Besides that, both of them are very professional and serious. Faced with the different actions that have higher level of difficulty (Jumping and sitting on top of each other), they were both very cooperative and strived to meet the requirement.

This year is "Bella" magazine's 25 anniversary. The two of them generously shared their story of them at 25 years old and 25 blissful things to them in life. They are all very true. Real life experences that came at the expense of sweat and tears.

To be able to sincerely and truthfully talk about "Bliss" with the two of them is really a bliss in itself.

For example, a question of "If you wake up to find yourself suddenly having 80 billion worth of property, what will you do?" had Joe Chen choosing "Will not tell anyone. Silently, secretly be a rich person." She laughed and said "The best would be to find a reason to withdraw from the entertainment industry and hide overseas to live." And for question "When you find that your partner is one who does things only for his personal gain, what will you do?" Blue chose "Feel that myself is extremely unlucky, let nature take its course but will have a love that cannot be broken." He said that "Because I've fallen in love already.

Howeven, Taiwan netizens had 50% choosing "Will try hard to help him, believe in him and let him start over again." Additionally for "What will you do for the sake of marrying into the rich?"

Blue Lan saves the lady while Joe Chen screams for help

When Jam Hsiao burned a piano at a public location while filming an MV, he attracted the attention of environmentalist and a fine was dealt to him. With this previous example, when SETTV and TTV's idol drama "Easy Fortune Happy Life" wanted to film a scene of a burning house, they didn't dare to destroy any of the artifects in San Di Men. Instead, the crew spent thousands of dollars to rent a land in Yi Lan and rebuilt a wooden house there. After which, they burnt it down.
At the end of filming, though female lead Joe Chen was not burnt at all, she had bruises all over her body.

Blue Lan joked of being too engrossed in acting, used too much strength

Joe Chen's drama family house had a fire and she wanted to risk her own life to save her Grandma that was inside the fire. However, due to the big fire, Blue Lan tried to restrain her by hugging her tightly. Joe said that "Blue's strength is really big. I couldn't even take a single step, let alone pretending to dash into the fire." Being the type of "easily injured women", when Joe finished filming, her elbow and hands all had bruises and she purposely showed them to Blue Lan. Blue however replied in his Blue humor way "If it wasn't for me, you would have dashed into the fire already. I couldn't stand aside and not save you right!"

When Blue was filming "Blazing Courage" in the past, there was an actor in the team that really met a fire and died. This time, faced with a fire scene again, that incident came up in his mind again. He said that "I was too into the character and really wanted to stop Joe from rushing into the fire so I used too much strength. I feel really apologetic to her." The two of them even fell onto the floor during the drama due to them being too engross inside the scene.

Cameos worked too hard; Many NGs when filming

Originally, director Liu Jun Jie planned for Joe to dash into the fire twice and then gets stopped by Blue Lan but during the actual filming, there were many NGs. Blue explained that "The fire was big and those cameos acting as villagers were all working very hard in putting out the fire. In the end, the fire was really extinguished by them." To successfully film this scene took numerous try-outs and 3 actual filming.

The two built up friendship due to mishaps

As Joe's character is someone that lives in the mountain and is an expert with herbs, since the start of filming, they have been going on the route of a "National Park". Both Joe and Blue were originally seen as difficult and possibly unable to get along due to their personalities. However, although filming was tough, it caused them to build up a friendship slowly already. Blue even praised Joe to his friends privately, saying that she is a "good person!"

ZaiZai, Jerry Yan & Blue Lan have bold women backing them up

Behind every successful man lies a woman. But in the idol drama world, most of the girls in the past have been jade girls; fragile, courteous & refined. Today, they have become independent, takes the initiative, full of personality and stands equal to the male lead. Like ZaiZai, Jerry Yan & Blue Lan’s new dramas; behind all 3 male idols, lies a ‘bold woman’.

As the ratings continue to climb, the 4-way love triangle in PTV’s ‘Black & White’ seems to become more and more complicated. In the end, will ZaiZai be with Ivy Chen or Janine Chang? This question has triggered fierce debate among netizens. Ivy Chen tells ZaiZai that she is a strong tree, and will forever be by ZaiZai’s side; this bold confession has received a high degree of support.

Ivy plays the daughter of a gangster. Although she appears to be fragile, she is actually stubborn and takes the initiative when it comes to love. This difference in inside and outside further adds colour to her character, becoming the typical ‘bold woman’. However, bold women can also tire themselves out; yesterday the ‘Black & White’ cast held a signing event at Taichung, and after saying a quick hello onstage, Ivy was helped downstage to rest, disappointing many fans.

After Jerry Yan returned from Japan, he immediately began filming GTV’s new drama ‘Just Want To Depend On You’. In the drama, Ella talks loudly and even carries refrigerators; full of ‘bold woman’ flavour. Jerry mistakes her for a lesbian, and gets her to become his nanny. The 2 yesterday filmed with Xiao Xiao Bin, and because she looked so cute, it even made Jerry go blind and NG.

Blue Lan & Joe Chen’s SETTV drama ‘Easy Fortune, Happy Life’ is about to air. In
the drama, Joe plays a righteous ‘bold sister’, not only does she resist Blue’s evil ways, she even bars the police. Earlier, Joe & SETTV had a big disagreement about Blue touching her chest, in the end, they only filmed above the shoulders; Joe’s bold defense of her chest succeeds!

The 3 bold women steals the spotlight, and has become a hot topic.
