Topic: This Winter Will Not Be Cold - Deric Wan


Snowflakes fall from the sky, settling on tree branches and window sills. The world is covered with pure white snow, free from dust and dirt. Within the chilly wind, a farm house courtyard quietly greets this snowy winter.

A desire for the snowy winter crosses the mind while eating a frosty in the summer. Looking at the sky filled with fluttering snowflakes in the winter can be very romantic. Having this snowflake in the summer may not be a fun matter. Deric Wan gets a taste of this while shooting his latest underclothing commercial.

On a flaming hot August day, the indoor temperature of a Shanghai photo studio reaches 30 degrees Celsius. Inside there is farm house courtyard covered in imitation snow. A machine shoots out a circle of foam to imitate snowflakes for a snowy winter. Handsome Deric Wan, wearing a pair of jeans and a warm undershirt, stands in the snow in the 30 degrees high temperature. At the same time he displays the expression of being in the cold wind in an energetic, bountiful, graceful manner. All this time his back is drenched in sweat.

This year's winter is already a market of celebrity underclothing commercial battle. There is Andy Lau's silk and Ge You's south pole cotton. Now even Wan SIR, who seldom shoots commercials has been added to this wild battle.

Having acted in many memorable roles, Wan SIR should be naturally skilled at shooting commercials. But he dare not neglect properness because of a commercial's short shooting time. His demand for quality and excellence is still tight. Every eye expression and body motion must be precise. Even after a couple of NG's, Wan SIR doesn't find them troublesome.

Although Wan SIR has appeared in recent news, he is quietly preparing for backstage work, writing songs for singers, shooting MV, packaging, etcetera. Confronted with the ups and downs inside the entertainment circle, Wan SIR sees it all as being indifferent and wishes not to speak about it. Having been formerly exposed to the public, he hopes to indulge in practical serious backstage work that he feels is more valuable. Being a spokesman for this underclothing product brand is a whole new attempt for him.
