Michael Tse Tin Wah and Linda Chung's new series, "Best Bet" 《迎妻接福》, formerly known as "Gambler Yi Takes a Wife" 《爛賭義當老婆》will be broadcast on February 12th. Michael and Linda contributed money to treat the cast and crew to an outdoor barbeque, hoping for good ratings and positive audience reception for the series.

"Best Bet" is the first series in which Michael will be assuming the lead male role. He is quite nervous, but was generous with his wallet in treating everyone to a meal. "Everyone put in their best efforts to film this series. Tonight is just an occasion for us to have a good meal together!"

Linda Chung, Chan Hoi Yee, and Lam Yi Kei were also at the barbeque. Michael said, "Tonight was very cold, but the atmosphere was very lively. Everyone offered suggestions for the series' new title. The name 迎妻接福 carries a wonderful Lunar New Year spirit, matching the broadcasting timeframe!"

Michael joked, "This series is like taking an exam for me. The audience will give me a score. Each year, I normally travel during the Lunar New Year holiday, but this year I will stay in Hong Kong to promote for 'Best Bet.' I will distribute more red envelopes and make everyone happy!"

The normally frugal Linda was extremely happy to treat everyone to the barbeque meal. She laughed, "Why would I feel the pinch in treating? It makes everyone happy. But the weather was very cold and I didn't wear enough clothes, so I was shivering. Normally I am afraid of fire, but I sat by it all night to stay warm!"

Michael and Linda treated the cast and crew of "Best Bet."

Linda also mentioned that Producer Lee Tim Sing will be retiring in 1-2 years. Brother Tim was like Santa Claus at the barbeque, as everyone wanted to take a photo with him!"
