This year Sheren is not scheduled to shoot any TVB series. It was said that TVB initially planned to cast her in the upcoming concubine costume drama in May co-starring Moses Chan, and hope the two continue their sparks from 2004's War and Beauty. However, Sheren turned down the series.
Sheren started her career off in the TVB training class, in the early years she had always kept a "per series" contract with TVB. It was rumored that the series she turned down was TVB's sequel to the popular Qing dynasty drama Jade Palace Lock Heart (Palace). Although Sheren arrived in Mainland earlier than Charmaine to dig the gold, but because the Mainland series she's offered has a strong behind-the-scenes crew, is a grand production and is definitely going to help Sheren in the Mainland market, plus she is paid 100,000 per episode, which is tripled that of TVB. In fact, since Sheren got her TV Queen title in HK, her Mainland price jumped from 70,000 to 100,000 and TVB's pay is about 30,000 per episode. No wonder Sheren was moved by Mainland's offer.
Reporters contacted Sheren over the phone and asked about the Palace sequel? She said: "It's not a sequel, it is the producer of Palace that is starting another series, but nothing is confirmed yet."Asked if TVB invited her to participate in a new series in May? She denied: "TVB did find me to collaborate with Moses Chan before, I also really wanted to because after last time's collaboration in War and Beauty, we haven't collaborated in a long time. However, the Mainland series I'm going to shoot clashes right with that TVB series' schedule. So, I wasn't able to shoot TVB's series, which I feel is a pity." It was said that there are currently a few Mainland series with Sheren in it, so it is estimated that she won't be able to shoot any TVB series this year.
Also, reporters contacted Producer Nelson Cheung to ask about his plans for a new Sheren and Moses series in May. He said: "I did have that preliminary thought." Did Sheren have to shoot a Mainland series, so she turn down TVB? Nelson said: "This you should ask her, I cannot answer for her. Her schedule was unable to match this series' schedule." Asked if he wanted to ask Sheren to play a famous concubine in the new series? He said: "At first I did have that thought, but we already changed the subject matter." Asked about the new serial's cast, he expressed that besides Moses, there is also Myolie Wu, Bobby Au-Yeung and Linda Chung.
