杨锡彬说，除了欧萱之外，瑞恩、林湘萍等也是与他合作无间的演员。他点评说：“欧萱属于聆听型的艺人，会静静听完故事，看完剧本，遇到困难地方我们就会彼此讨论；瑞恩则会很直率地提出想法和意见，提出建议。她很拼，拍《破茧而出》时，扭伤脚，仍坚持完成动作，专业精神可嘉。”

杨锡彬强调，一部好的制作，除了剧本，还需要专业的演员去演绎好角色，配合强的制作团队，才能较好地保证作品水准。

“演员和监制彼此都应摆在专业的角度，除了告诉演员我要什么外，我也希望他们能有自己想法，弥补制作方面的疏忽和盲点。”杨锡彬说。

瑞恩

在本地演员、歌手双身份的女歌手中，瑞恩是非常优质的一位，她不但戏好，歌也好，身上散发出来的特殊气息与众不同，只是她为人很低调，不爱宣传，因此，见报曝光机会少。

曾修读”银行业与金融管理”的瑞恩，曾出版专辑《芮恩RuIen》、《芮恩RuiEn同名专辑》，专辑完整地收录了瑞恩出道至今的心情点滴，及对人与事各式各样的想法，她也曾在专辑中亲自写了8首歌词，微妙且带点另类的文字充满著这位新新女生新鲜自主的想法。

瑞恩拍摄过的电视剧也很多，像《不凡的爱》、《书包太重》、《最火搭档》、《吃吃面包谈谈情》、《二分之一缘份》、《法医X档案II》、《爱情零度C》、《宝家卫国》、《破茧而出》和《过好年》等等；也多次获观众投选为”十大最受欢迎女艺人”。

瑞恩还曾担任周杰伦《八度空间》中《暗号》里头的MV女主角，她曾经是 ‘J女郎’ 之一。

瑞恩和白薇秀明年将到马国参与合资剧《正义武馆》演出。（图／档案照）

新马电视交流频繁，新传媒明年计划与马国电视台合拍5部电视剧，除了资深艺人纷纷“跑路”到马国，连欧萱、白薇秀和瑞恩3名电视台“仅存”的公主，也将先后越过长堤拍摄合资剧集，估计明年本地电视演艺圈，将出现一段“空城”状态。

本地电视近来面对演员离巢、艺人真空、剧本薄弱、收视低落和新媒体壮大等多方夹攻，“内忧外患”驱使下，新传媒逐渐开始将视野拓展到区域及海外，近来纷纷与马国合资拍摄剧集，艺人出走邻国。

全新创作抢救收视率

其实，早在几年前，监制袁树伟曾来马来西亚，负责打开两地剧集合资、制作的天空。不过，当时的合资剧集如《原点》、《情有可缘》、《美丽的气味》和《天使的烙印》等，其实都是“捡现成”，因编剧缺乏而翻炒新传媒旧剧如《长河》、《二分一缘分》、《情来运转》和《天使的诱惑》等，得到反响不大。

这次再征马来西亚，由杨锡彬领军，他表示接下来的新马合资剧集，在故事内容上都是全新的原创作品，强调故事和人物角色的重要性，也以新马两地的观众口味和市场为考量。

“像《正义武馆》和《甘榜情》就是为8频道拍摄的，而《断掌》则拍给ntv7，8月有2部，10月也2部……接下来还会有很多合资剧集陆续推出。我要让观众看到我们也可拍出认真、诚意的作品。”杨锡彬说。

两地艺人‘大交换’

除了欧萱即将“落跑”马国外，杨锡彬也透露，另外2公主－－白薇秀和瑞恩，将在明年中到马国拍摄合资剧《正义武馆》（暂名），在片中发扬武学精神，锄强扶弱。

HE BELIEVES he’s a star-maker.

That’s why he doesn’t understand why he hasn’t been given the chance to make young talent shine.

David Gan, owner of Passion Hair Salon and ‘mother’ to some of MediaCorp’s biggest stars like Fann Wong and Zoe Tay, is upset that artiste managers are no longer sending their young MediaCorp charges to him for hair styling services.

A spokesman for MediaCorp told The New Paper in an e-mail: ‘There is no such ban on David Gan. In fact, our make-up unit is working with him on his salon’s sponsorship of services for (new TV drama) Love In Two Cities which is currently in production.’

Hype Records boss Ken Lim, who signed popular MediaCorp princesses Jeanette Aw and Rui En, said he believes hard work is what contributed to both their successes – and that should be what young artistes should focus on.

He said: ‘Rui En and Jeanette’s success did not come overnight. Between them, there’s been 20 years of hard work.

‘Whether a star makes it or not depends on more than just a hairstyle or looks as looks are subjective.

‘It’s all about their attitude and commitment to their work. You can have the best managers and stylists but there’ll be no point if you don’t work hard yourself.’

So who’s doing whose hair? Here’s a list of local celebs and their crimpers of choice

Caldecott Hill’s ice princess will be ditching her cold and frosty persona to embrace all things girlish and fluffy for A Tale of Two Cities

Text & Photos: Joanna Goh
Video: Fiona Lin & Tay Yixuan

Last seen as the crime-busting, ass-kicking tough cookie in the police and thief drama series, Unriddle, Caldecott Hill’s ice princess will be trading her revolver and holster for high heels and frilly dresses in her upcoming role for Ch 8 rom-com series, A Tale of Two Cities.

Think Elle Woods in Legally Blonde with her pet Chihuahua, Bruce. Rui En will make a 360-degree change and embrace all things pretty and kawaii for her willful heiress character, Zhang Ya Le.

To complete the overall getup, the 29-year-old went the extra mile and “for the first time in my life”, purchased a Hello Kitty pouch, dubbing it “a little bag” for her cellphone in the show.

At the trailer shoot for the upcoming drama, we were shell shocked — in a good way — by Rui En’s radical makeover. Sporting beautifully curled tresses, the tomboyish one who swears by “shorts and slippers” was dressed in a flouncy bejeweled frock, three-inch heels, donned a diamante headband and had acrylic nails to top it off.

On the set of the trailer shoot with Pierre Png

Talking about her new role, the cool chick suffered an “anxiety attack” when she first received the show’s script and likened it to having a curveball thrown in her face, during an interview with xinmsn. To get in-tune with her inner city chick, Rui En religiously pored through series like Sex and the City and Gossip Girl.

“Whenever I do a show, I’ll have the mannerisms for awhile and it’s very embarrassing! She’s very expressive and very drama [on her character’s antics]!” she gushed in mortification and chuckled.

Sharing on the crew’s impression of her makeover, she said, “The first time one of them saw me, his reaction was like that (mimicking a jaw-dropped look).”

Citing her tolerance level for bling, dresses, and heels to be worn only at press conferences, events or the annual Star Awards, the un-girly girl even sought tips from her fellow co-star, Joanne Peh, whom she calls a “girly bubbly princess girl” and a “really good reference”.

“I told myself when this show broadcasts, I might not watch it ‘cos I feel so embarrassed,” laughed Rui En.

Despite her cool exterior, this actress was given a wide berth of opportunities to play a myriad of characters in her acting career and had to “work very hard” to earn it.

“People were like ‘she can only do certain cool roles’ and I had to work two times harder,” she said.

Rui En in her towering heels

Choosing to play her character with a “larger than life” drama queen personality, the Nanyang Technology University business graduate is open to “anything challenging” and will not veer from feminine roles.

Setting the record straight, she quips “There are only certain scenes that I will not do.”

Unconsciously flicking her hair demurely from time to time during the interview and trailer shoot, Rui En was clearly immersed in character.

“Beyond the very embarrassing mannerisms influence, I actually realize that skirts are quite comfortable,” she chuckled and adds, “I guess I might be more open to skirts after this.”

Catch Rui En in A Tale of Two Cities when it debuts on Valentine’s Day next year.

（新加坡讯）观众狠批新加坡电视剧水准每下愈况，演员没演技，剧本写不好。
有的则指出，八九十年代的新加坡剧脍炙人口，富有娱乐性，而且范围很广泛，如《戏班》、《红头巾》、《双天至尊》和迷离主题如《迷离夜》。

也有读者说，新传媒的电视剧都是同一批演员在演，令人看腻了。

一名读者甚至批评，现在的演员似乎都只是在发明星梦，没有好好地磨炼演技。

需要时间创造好剧

新传媒金牌编剧洪荣狄指出，媒体大环境改变了，国人可通过收费电视和网络观看外国电视剧，接触面变广了，对新加坡剧要求也变得苛刻。

洪荣狄说，“其实，新加坡编剧都很努力创作剧本，但国人一直都爱批评新加坡剧。《双天至尊》播出时，就被狠批渲染赌风，现在却有人说它令人怀念。”

郑各评：新一代有潜力

资深演员郑各评也认为，过去的演员有训练班，年轻一代的演员却好像被丢入大海学游泳一样，一边学，一边演。

郑各评说：“不少年轻艺人的演技都日渐成熟了，如白薇秀、瑞恩和欧萱都不错，并非只会发明星梦。”

瑞恩的角色像足《爱》中的“赖家玲”。（图／档案照）

“爱”不完！明年4月登场的本地剧《麻辣斗妇》，上演“苦命媳妇”瑞恩遭迫害，与台湾乡土剧《爱》撞戏！

自本地长命剧《想握你的手》7月份播完后，新传媒将原本只在周末7时档播出的台湾乡土剧《爱》搬进周日黄金档，让本地观众“爱”到明年6月份，该剧平均收视据称破百万，观众好坏评语参半，但据悉，新传媒明年1月初将开拍本地新剧《麻辣斗妇》（前名为《快乐3+1》），目前暂定由瑞恩、许美珍等演出，并已定于明年4月播出，让本地观众“爱”不完！

开拍《麻辣》的消息上周传出，被封为“本地版《爱》”，该连续剧共35集，据悉剧本已完工，现阶段已敲定由瑞恩、许美珍等主演。根据故事大纲，瑞恩将饰演苦命小媳妇，被演出歹毒媳妇的许美珍百般迫害，向云则饰演女强人家婆，对瑞恩的苦命角色疼爱有加，却因此引起许美珍角色的不满；其他参与演出的艺人包括方展发、张振寰、林明伦、李心钰、曹国辉等。

虽然还未开拍、做造型，但消息传出后，却有不少网友指，故事大纲、主要人物介绍，和《爱》雷同，有网友说：“摆明是抄袭！”有人直指：“不如从海外买节目！”眼尖的观众也说：“张振寰心地善良儿子的角色，后来被许美珍利用，和《爱》的建中是同个人！”

《麻辣》故事人否认抄袭

否认《麻辣》抄袭《爱》，故事人陈秀群：剧本未完成，随时会有变数。

故事人之一陈秀群受询时表示，《麻辣》剧本尚未完成，“八字都还没一撇”，之前流传坊间的故事大纲、人物角色等，只是“天书”。她说：“所谓天书，指的是故事粗略的概念，剧本目前还在讨论和构思中，故事有待发展，还是会有变数。”

她强调，《麻辣》绝对和《爱》不一样，“本地观众看本地剧的口味不一样，所以大方向也会不同，现阶段还没有任何定论。”

至于选角、人物等，她也透露，演员和角色或会有变动，一切仍未成定局。

故事人赞瑞恩：很努力

《书包太重》、《我在你左右》幕后的故事人之一同样是陈秀群，过去这两部剧的女主角均是瑞恩，如今又有指《麻辣》女主角由瑞恩担纲，问她是否特别看好瑞恩？她说，选角不是她一个人能做的决定。

“之前之所以相中瑞恩，有很多因素，其中是她符合人物角色。”

她也表示：“过去合作的女演员不少，但她（指瑞恩）确实很努力。”

陈秀群称，剧本目前仍在“创作阶段”，希望能在年底前完工交稿。

麻辣斗妇VS爱

★瑞恩＝《爱》中的“赖家玲”？

她饰演的角色佳珍是个苦命媳妇，心地善良，最后嫁给了她不爱的张振寰角色，后来甚至被赶出家门、流产，所有不幸集于她一身。
