In a striking rebuttal to rumors swirling around the Hong Kong television giant TVB, actor Eric Tsang has boldly defended the network's profitability since taking the reins as general manager in September 2021.

During a recent episode of the lively variety show Trump Card, Tsang, 72, engaged in a spirited Q&A session alongside fellow Chinese actor Tang Guoqiang. As tension filled the air, the duo tackled pressing questions with rapid-fire intensity.

The moment took a turn when Tang, aged 73, confronted Tsang with claims circulating online that TVB's profits have been plummeting. Tsang, however, stayed cool under pressure, dismissing the speculation with confidence. "TVB produces content, and content is king. Nothing we do lacks substance. We create content, so TVB will never decline,” he strongly asserted.

Tang didn't hold back, asking Tsang directly, "Some say it’s because you became general manager that it’s not doing well?" In response, Tsang urged viewers to approach online claims with skepticism. He proclaimed, "Let’s look at the facts. When I first joined as general manager, TVB was running at a loss. This year, we’re profitable!"

Tsang's candid comments not only defend his leadership but also highlight the ongoing challenges in the competitive broadcasting landscape. As audiences crave high-quality, engaging content, TVB appears committed to reclaiming its reputation.

With Tsang at the helm, fans and critics alike will be watching closely to see if the network can navigate these turbulent waters and reaffirm its status as a leader in entertainment.
