Moses Chan Accepts Having Less Fans As He Ages
Although Moses Chan (陳豪) went home empty-handed at last year’s TVB Anniversary Awards, he continues to maintain a positive outlook on his career. Addressing the question that perhaps he does not have as many fans as the other nominated actors, Moses said, “I don’t mind that other actors have more fans. It’s not a crime. In fact, the other actors have that to their advantage! My fans come from all backgrounds – little kids, teenagers, the older generation, even Filipinos!”
Moses places high importance on his fans, because after all, they are the ones who continue to support him through his ups and downs. “The fans support me unconditionally and don’t ask for anything in return. Sometimes I feel like I don’t do enough and I’ve let them down, so I should be the one apologizing,” Moses explained.
He continued, “If some fans were waiting at the airport for hours just to see me but because I was rushing to catch a flight and only had a minute to say a quick hello, the fans wouldn’t be happy. I would imagine that they’ve cancelled meetings or skipped classes just to come to see me and take photos. In a situation like that, I don’t think it’s right for me to rush by them and not even acknowledge their efforts.”
While Moses has loyal and dedicated fans supporting him, does he ever worry about losing them to the new breed of actors as he ages? Moses answered, “It’s a natural cycle, just like how the earth will continuously evolve. There will always be someone who is younger than you, prettier than you, smarter than works, works harder than you, accomplishes more than you and faster than you. Honestly, we need a new younger breed of actors. How do folks like me cope with that? Well, we have experience and the wisdom to continue improving ourselves. There are apples, oranges, bananas and lots of fruits in this world. If we mix it together, we have a bountiful fruit garden; if we only have apples and oranges, then that is just too simple.”
Moses’ next project will be starring in Will Power <傳愛事務所> with Wayne Lai (黎耀祥), which is highly anticipated since both actors have received the TV King award. “Many people think that Wayne and I will battle out our acting onscreen, but I don’t think like that. In fact, I’m very excited about working with Wayne and the chemistry that we have. I think the results will be great!”

Well I’m certainly not a fan of his.
bad pic!
and him aging is his excuse for less fans?
wow …
not a fan as well.
I guess he never directly said that he was getting less fans because of ageing, it’s just the way his words were interpreted! He shouldn’t say it anyway when Wayne Lai is 7 years older than him 🙂
Um…I’m not a fan of him cuz I don’t think he can act.
i am not his fan but i am impressed with the characters as those mean b**tards in certain dramas such as Armed Reaction III, Master of Play, When Heaven Burns…goofy characters like Dak Dak Dei and in Moonlight Resonance just did not suit him
not a fan of this man
don’t really like him
Lol…. The Aimee/Moses haters have their claws out again.
He’s a solid actor with some memorable roles and I’m sure he’ll continue that streak so long as TVB will have him. Off screen, can’t say I’m much of his fan after the whole Bernice thing. And again, I don’t know what went down with them, but just the way he handled that, I felt that was just not cool.
All the best to him though!
He did all kinds of characters, all were not good. I wish there’s a cute Filipino guy that speak Chinese in TVB series. My Filipino friend speak Chinese, he would be a hot actor in HK. Haha
It’s ok to have less fans. He is still one of the top TVB money-maker!
Its so true, lolz. The top “voted” this year are said to have many fans by Txb and they both cant earn as much as the lesser fans, ironically.
I love you Moses!! Support!!
I am not a big fan of Moses but don’t dislike him either. I don’t think he should have the mindset that just because he gets older that he will lose fans. If you lose fans, it is for other reasons not age. There are many really old veteran actors and actresses that have plenty of fans so age should not affect that nor should it matter…
He is a versatile actor, the one and only that I lije from TVB.
Well said!! I’m a fan so wishing him continue success for sure!
Moses keep up the hard work, I don’t think your old at all. You still look good. Will always support u no matter what!
Yeh, keep up d good work..support u always!
I like it when he plays that tough guy kind of character. Like when he was on Healing Hands. I don’t like it when he plays the goofy kind. He should really try to style his hair. It used to look so good, but lately he looks so casual.
Agree the goofy kind of acting really getting stale. Still he’s good when he’s serious.
Not a fan, but certainly not a hater. Moses does have some memorable roles from the past. I really liked him in The Gem of Life as Terrance (except the cheating part lol). He and Gigi looks great as a couple. He’s actually quite charming and cool in serious roles.
P.S.: Certainly not a fan of his girlfriend though. I must say, I cared less about Moses after he started dating Aimee Chan 😛
Support you , Moses
To all those haters out there Moses is a good actor,he’s not handsom but a good actor so please cut the crap
Frankly speaking, I am definately getting bored with all those comments from haters. Nothing new, same old craps all the times. Just ignore them.
