“Xiao Tian” Ethan Ruan overcomes all obstacles and has been confirmed to attend the Golden Bell awards. He and Chen Qiao En will present award as “Mr and Mrs Ji”, against the other screen couple Joe Zheng and Ariel Lin!
Ethan Ruan turns down advertisements for the GBA
“Fated To Love You” is nominated in six categories in this year’s GBA. Recently it was rumored that Ethan can’t attend because of overseas work arrangements. But yesterday his manager Xiao Ba said: “Already turned down all work and will support the GBA wholeheartedly.” Regarding whether Ethan will walk down the red carpet with Chen Qiao En, Xiao Ba said that they are trying hard to arrange. Chen Qiao En’s manager Li Shixiang also said: “It’s still some time from the awards ceremony, everything is not yet confirmed.” It appears that she does not want to give a definite answer.
Raine Yang and Mike He coupling broken
SET also said yesterday that since “Mr and Mrs Ji” are both attending, they will try to get the cast of “Fated” to walk down the red carpet together, with Mr and Mrs Ji leading the group. Lin Mei Xiu who is also nominated and the crew of Fated will join them.
The GBA organizing community, Azio TV, also revealed that Ethan Ruan, Chen Qiao En as well as Joe Zheng and Ariel Lin of “They Kiss Again” will be paired and present awards together. But the couple of “Exchange Love” Raine Yang and Mike He who are also supposed to present awards can’t make it because Mike He is filming “Hua Wu Fei Xue” in China!
Idol drama award presenting turns into power fight among TV stations

Idol drama favorite “married couples” Ethan Ruan, Chen Qiao En, Joe Zheng , Ariel Lin, Mike He and Raine Yang will not only be pitting popularity, fashion and award win in the Golden Bell awards. They will also be having headaches over who should present what awards. This is because it concerns the honor and face of television stations. According to sources, it has turned into power fights among the various TV stations.
Ariel Lin has postponed her Japan work trip to support the Golden Bell and will present an award with “hubby” Joe Zheng. Yesterday the organizing committee asked Joe Zheng and Ariel Lin to present the “Best Marketing” award. The hot favorite for this award happens to be SET’s “Fated To Love You”, causing Ariel Lin and Joe Zheng who are representing GTV to feel awkward. According to sources, GTV is privately furious and had warned Ariel Lin’s manager Zhou Mei Yu to “consider carefully”.
This year the four top idol drama actresses are competing in the Golden Bell awards. The competition is intense. Not only are each actress’s fans competing in each major poll; the two largest TV station, GTV and SET, are monitoring the situation closely. The “Best Marketing” award may not be as attractive as the individual awards; but to the TV stations who are aggressively marketing their products overseas, this award is viewed as an important award for team strength.
Last year SET’s “Tian Xia Di Yi Wei” beat GTV’s “Hana Kimi” to win the “Best Marketing” award. According to sources, this causes GTV to feel unhappy. This year GTV is not nominated for this award, but SET’s highly popular “Fated To Love You” was nominated in many categories and is a hot favorite this year.
Therefore, when GTV learns that the organizers wants to let their “representatives” Ariel Lin and Joe Zheng present this award, they immediately express that it’s not appropriate. Yesterday Zhou Mei Yu said that Ariel Lin originally had work arrangement in Japan during the day of the awards ceremony, but she was able to postpone it a few days ago and has confirmed her attendance. She had indeed received the organizer’s invitation for Ariel Lin and Joe Zheng to present the Best Marketing award and will discuss with the organizers to present another award instead.
The organizers also said that it has not confirmed the award presentation list. Other than Joe Zheng and Ariel Lin, Chen Qiao En is also confirmed to be presenting an award with Ethan Ruan. The organizers originally hoped that Raine Yang who was nominated for “Exchange Love” will pair up with Mike He too, but because Mike He is still filming in China, it is not known whether he will be able to make time on his schedule to return to Taiwan.
