Sonija Kwok Will Not Renew TVB Contract
Hong Kong TVB fa dan Sonija Kwok is currently in Shanghai filming a mainland production called “The Legend of Eight Gods”. In this series, Sonija will be playing one of the eight gods, she was dressed in a pink colored ancient costume when reporters visited her onset yesterday.
The filming company revealed, Sonija’s fee for this series is between HKD$60,000 - $80,000 per episode, this is more than twice the amount she is paid when filming for TVB. It appears that Sonija is not interested in competing for the TVB #1 sister spot, instead she is concentrating on making some real cash from the mainland market.
Sonija said: “To tell the truth, the salary I get paid from filming a mainland series is much higher than what I get from filming TVB series. Plus, when I am filming here, I can really concentrate without worrying about the media writing bad reports about me.” It is certainly true that every time Sonija films a series, there will be rumors with her male co-stars, for example Joe Ma, Steven Ma, etc, because of the ongoing rumors, Sonija has been given a very bad name.
The current TVB #1 sister Gigi Lai has announced she will not be filming next year, hence the #1 sister spot has become vacant, there is fierce competition amongst the other actresses to claim the top spot. Asked if Sonija will join the competition to replace Gigi as #1 sister, Sonija answered: “I just want to concentrate on filming, don’t want to think too much about other things.” She also said that she has no interest in becoming TVB #1 sister because next year, her contract with TVB will end. Sonija revealed she will not be renewing her TVB contract, instead she will head to mainland where she can earn more money.
