Bravo to The Dream Makers for making viewers wonder what’s real and what’s reel.

And this tantalising poser is what makes the show, about the behind-the-scenes goings-on in a fictitious TV station, must-see TV. A C-lister (Jeanette Aw) is told by her bosses not to outshine Dawn Yeoh’s nasty Ah Jie in a talkshow; she is also forbidden from taking seats reserved for Ah Jies in a make-up studio and on the bus. Is this really what happens on Caldecott Hill?

The star-studded cast is the second reason this is compelling TV. Two stand-out performers among them: Qi Yuwu (could his real-life romance with Joanne Peh be the reason he’s so convincing playing boyfriend to Jeanette Aw?) and Rui En (her animated portrayal of a scatterbrain producer enlivens the show at every turn).

Alien 黄鸿升跟着感觉走！

小鬼不相信“一见钟情”，他认为，两个人在一起还是要经过一番了解，不然很容易分手。

有没有对任何女艺人有过一杀那，瞬间被迷上的feel？他很认真想了想，然后回答：“周迅，她的声音有磁性，演技好，看了很有feel；舒淇很性感，有自己的味道…还有，瑞恩，她很有性格，很多人都说她很“冰山”，演戏不太会开玩笑，我觉得她还挺好相处的，还是有一颗少女心，当她讲出一些童年的事，就很有反差，很有feel。” 记者笑说：“你把‘冰山’劈开了？！”他幽默回应：“不要用‘劈’啦，‘溶解’就好，哈哈。”

Although MediaCorp actor Shaun Chen has 10 years of acting experience, he has to start from scratch in Taiwan.

The 34-year-old will be living there for a year to focus on expanding his career in the region, following in the footsteps of fellow star Christopher Lee.

Chen went to Taiwan last October to take a shot at the Hong Kong, Taiwan and China markets. He made a cameo appearance in the 72-episode Taiwanese idol drama Love, Now.

Earlier this year, he returned to Singapore to shoot the Channel 8 drama The Dream Makers, which is about the showbiz industry.

He plays Du Zhan Peng, the CEO of the TV station’s Artiste Management Unit, who falls for Rui En’s character.

Art mirrors life in The Dream Makers

By Mervin Tay

Local actress Rui En (seated second from left) sharing a jovial moment with fellow actress Chen Liping as actors Qi Yiwu, Chen Hanwei, Zoe Tay and Jeanette Aw look on during the press conference for their upcoming television drama, titled The Dream Makers.

Reel life mirrored real life on the set of Channel 8’s new blockbuster drama The Dream Makers.

And it surprised MediaCorp actress Chen Liping with how blurred the line between make-believe and reality can be.

In the showbiz-theme drama, which premieres today at 9pm, she plays a senior executive heading the drama division of a television station.

The drama also stars Zoe Tay, Rui En, Jeanette Aw, Qi Yuwu and Shaun Chen.

Chen, 47, recently mentioned two scenes in the 30-episode drama that were uncannily real.

In one, a memorial service is held for one of the characters who died.

“One week after filming that scene, we were observing a moment’s silence for Huang Wenyong at Star Awards Show 1,” she said, referring to the veteran MediaCorp actor who died in late April.

Chen then launched into an anecdote about China-born MediaCorp actor Qi, who plays a director in The Dream Makers.

“In it, Yuwu is romantically involved with Jeanette and Rui En”, she said.

“In real life, he fell in love with (MediaCorp actress) Joanne Peh. We only have three princesses left and he romanced all of them!”

Chen was referring to the term “seven princesses”, coined by the local Chinese media around 2006.

It was used to describe seven young and popular MediaCorp actresses – Dawn Yeoh, Felicia Chin, Fiona Xie, Jesseca Liu, Aw, Peh and Rui En.

Today, only Aw, Peh and Rui En remained as full-time actresses.

But Chen said the parallels between fiction and reality did not stop there.

Aw and Qi play a couple in the drama, and after they break up, Rui En’s character falls in love with Qi’s character.

“As we all know, in reality, Joanne got together with Yuwu after breaking up with her ex-boyfriend,” said Chen with a laugh.
