Dicky Cheung Thanks His TVB Crew
Currently filming TVB’s The Learning Curve of a Warlord <大帥哥>, Dicky Cheung (張衛健) is not in the best of places. The hot summer weather is suffocating, and the long filming hours are giving him a headache. But the 52-year-old actor, who hasn’t filmed a TVB drama in over 20 years, has found ways to cool down.
A while ago, the drama team went to the Xiqiaoshan National Arts Studios in Foshan for principal photography shooting. Performing a blessing ceremony in front of hundreds of staff members, Dicky promised the crew that he would not lose his temper.
Dicky siad, “I’m fortunate to have come across such a caring team. To keep us hydrated, the crew would prepare ice cold green bean soup for us to drink. Our fellow actors have all pitched in to buy a large ice cabinet so we can stock our drinks.”
The Journey to the West <西遊記> star added that the Warlord crew has been very accommodating and caring. They arranged Dicky to live in a room at the end of the hotel hallway, which had thicker walls. Dicky said he was able to sit down in a quiet environment to study his script. He also said the crew were very prepared with their portable fans, saying, “Perhaps because I am bald, but they would all offer me their little fans to help me cool down. Thank you for taking care of me!”

mixed feelings about this, on one hand, DICKY CHEUNG back doing tvb dramas is epic!!! great actor! but on the other hand, dicky has a tendency to go overboard if there isnt someone to rein him in. this much pampering probably means no one has the balls to tell him to dial it down a notch

Agree. It’s also annoying to read that Dicky seems so proud to be given ‘special treatment’ by the crew.
I prefer senior actors who are humble/low-profile despite their good acting and reputation.
