Following Rosy Business, audience has hope to enjoy the true talented actors once again. Make A King's selling point is a costume drama, and is no longer about handsome guys and pretty girls. This is also a series focused more on men competing each other, replacing the lovely dovey relationship genres. In the series the 'Film King' Kent and 'TV King' Wayne will be wrestling each other, their acting skills takes at least 20 years to develop in the field for them to be considered qualified to take up this job. The other cast must have a good amount of acting experience too, such as Florence Kwok who play the Empress and Kingdom Yuen. There is the eunuch played by Pierre Ngo. Audience have already seen quite a bit of handsome guys, pretty girls and love stories in series and should anticipate a new type of series.
Two years ago, Wayne and Kent collaborated in the costume series Greatness of a Hero. In Wayne's eyes, Kent Gor is a very comprehensive veteran, whether if it's the editing, directing or acting, he takes part in. Rarely collaborating such a good and talented artist, Wayne hopes to steal some tips from him. He said: "This time having such a good co-star, acting is like playing kick ball, need to have some fist and kicks to get through the craving. So, Kent Gor and I will be fighting from beginning to end, our acting and talent be challenged. I will not think about other things during this period of time and focus entirely on shooting this series. I look forward to creating sparks with Kent Gor."
For this series, Kent turned down two Mainland series, while Wayne also values the series greatly spending over HK$200,000 on an used 7-seater van. So why is Wayne investing so much on this series? Wayne smiled: "No other way! The series is focused on Kent and I, I am prepared for it to be very difficult, but for now I have not thought of the actual circumstances. Since I live far, I hope to save time on traffic and use that time to rest. If I won't have time go home, then the van will be my second home. Kent Gor turned down two other series for this one, I cannot afford to lose anything."
