"Fire Basketball" Dream Team - Team Set! Basketball Battle with Jerry Yan, Show Luo, and Wu ZunIdol Drama "Fire Basketball" is finally on deck to film as Jerry Yan, Show Luo, and Wu Zun set out for a battle on the basketball court. Filming for this new drama is starting at the end of November, with a cost of about $60 Million. Jerry Yan's Discounted AppearanceHaving not even started the filming process, "Fire Basketball" with Jerry, Show, and Zun has already started a commotion in Asia. Before Jerry had accepted the offer, at one time he had declined the offer due to the character role. It's because he feels that he cannot play a humorous role. Jerry is currently residing in Japan and the producer Fen Jia Rui sincerely flew to Japan a few times and offered to adjust his character to please Jerry in order to have him agree to do the drama. Show Luo Anticipates "Acting Cool"Jerry has already met with director, Lin He Long, and had given Jerry many suggestions, including improvements on his acting. In the drama, Jerry is a basketball master and Show Luo is his agile, spring-legged teammate, Show Luo says, "[This drama] allows me to act cool/handsome, so I'm looking forward to it." Show and Zun had met each other before on "100% Entertainment" (Yu Le Bai Fen Bai), at that time Zun had presented him with gym gloves. They not only exchanged phone numbers, but they would also play basketball together. Wu Zun Doesn't Care about RankingThese three handsome guys have a love for basketball and will soon set out a battle on the basketball court. How the 3 guy's roles are going to be set and how their rankings will is a major discussion topic. The most recently debuted of the 3 guys, Zun, says, "This isn't the main point. Show and Jerry are both my basketball friends. So it will be fascinating to work with them. Leading Female Role Undecided and Still VacantIt's understood that they had considered many female actors to fill the leading female role, from Barbie Xu, Rainie Yang, Angela Zhang to Gui Lun Mei, but as of now, the female leading role is still vacant. Comic-Ritz Company expressed, not only is "Basketball" having a hard time finding the leading female role actress, but the original female lead for a new drama "Fried Rice," Ren Xuan Rong (Kristen Ren, Selina's little sister) is also being replaced also due to the role of the character, so they also face the problem of finding a new female lead.

Having a strong cast will make people envious. The new GTV drama series Basketball Fire got Jerry Yan, Show Luo and Wu Zun together to make up a strong cast, but before the 3 of them get to compete their basketball skills, they are already competing for the no.1 actor position. Wu Zun decided to take up no.3 position on his own accord while neither of the two experienced actors Jerry and Show is willing to be no.2.
two months ago, Basketball fire had a difficult time persuading Jerry to act in this series. Just when Jerry had agreed, Show became undecided and again GTV's big shots had to persuade Show to act in this show. In addition to the earlier confirmed Wu Zun, they finally managed to get the three actors to work together for this series, yet now they are faced with ranking problems, as all three of them are very popular.
For next wednesday's press conference (21st Nov), the poster designer had a hard time deciding how to put the three of them on the poster. As Wu Zun will be acting in another series Er Bi Jian at the beginning of next year, his role in Basketball Fire will not be as major as Show and Jerry, hence he willingly took up the last rank. As for Show and Jerry, after looking at the script, both their artiste management companies feel that their roles are equally important and both have the qualities to be the no.1 actor in Basketball Fire.
GTV and both actors' management companies had a meeting this week and they had discussed about the ranking problems, but GTV is not willing to give any information. But they said they will make it such a way that everyone will be happy.
Show's manager had expressed yesterday that the ranking isn't important. What's most important is to be able to work with good actors and crew. Jerry's manager also expressed they had no comments regarding the ranking and that they will respect GTV's decision. As for GTV, they said they will design a poster which shows that all three actors have equal importance. As for other matters, they have yet to come up with a conclusion.
