Nicholas Teo praised Amber Guo as Well-Disciplined

(Selangor‧Petaling Jaya)A new match - Nicholas Teo and Amber Guo has been described by the media as “older sister-younger brother relationship of another kind”. Nicholas let his laugh slipped and explained,“Everyone knows she just graduated from Taipei University and is much younger than me。”

In the upcoming Taiwanese idol drama, "Invincible Shan Bao Mei" 《無敵珊寶妹》, Nicholas will act as a narcissistic and haughty business owner character, Wu Di“無敵”(meaning 'Invincible'). That's the same as the product he endorses in Malaysia ,Wu Di E-Dictionary (aka Besta Dictionary) . As for the female lead - Guo Cai Jie's English name is Amber,similar to the movie - The 3rd Generation 《第三代》he acted in years ago with onscreen spouse, Amber Chia(謝麗萍)'s name. This lovely coincidence makes Nicholas to feel interesting too!

Character Narcissistic and Causes Others' Annoyance


He laughingly said, "Although Cai Jie's English name is known as 'Amber', I still call her 'Cai Jie'. If I mention 'Amber' instead, I'm afraid that I'll remember Malaysia's Amber Chia."

Smiling Pasta 《微笑Pasta》which starred Nicholas in 2006 soared in ratings. After a period of 2 years, he is now to accept a rather harsh challenge. He is to play a character he described as "narcissistic and hated by people". "Meantime, I've only seen the front part of script. This renowned host's character who doesn't lack a single thing causes him to be arrogant. Even his name is also called 'Invincible' ( 無敵). So you can picture how narcissistic he is."

Nicholas is currently in Taipei preparing for the shooting work of 《無敵珊寶妹》. During his phone interview, he described Amber Guo as a very well-disciplined girl. "This is her first time acting so her mood is a little nervous. She's very well-disciplined and well-behaved. I believe during this period of 5 months, we will be very happy working together." Their pairing has been described by the media as "another kind of older sister-younger brother relationship". To this, Nicholas let his laugh slipped and explained, "Everyone knows she just graduated from Taipei University and alot younger than me. This is because my Taiwan's record contract will be carried on at WarnerMusic instead of EMI. Amber Guo can be considered as my Warner Taiwan's senior."

《無敵珊寶妹》is Roy Chiu's first drama after completing his military service and pointed out as competing with ex-flame Rainie Yang's "Bad Campus Belle" 《不良笑花》so deeply attracting attention. Will Nicholas be worried that the focus will be placed on Roy Chiu? Nicholas expressed, "If this will make everyone more concerned about this show, that will be great. It's just a game created by the grown-ups, us kids will just shoot the drama obediently."

Not thinking about the rating problem

He expressed that shooting a drama has always been a team work and doesn't rely on a person solely. "Due to the reason that the character's personality and matching between artistes are very fresh, I have confidence in this show. Moreover, Shaolin Soccer's 《功夫足球》great senior, Huang Yi Fei will be playing Amber's father. Tao's father will be the chef by my side. Many famed variety shows' people will be participating and bring forth a joyful atmosphere, making me extremely anticipating."

《無敵珊寶妹》will be following up the drama which broke rating 10, "Fated to Love You" 《命中註定我愛你》. Will this induce pressure on Nicholas? "The results of rating has always been hard to predict, even harder to guess than album sales. I don't wish to give myself pressure before shooting even commences. Of course, I hope the rating will be very good but not wanting to think too much personally and get burdened with stress without a carefree mood to immerse myself in shooting."
