CRHK: SM clarifies he is not the 'lou ban'
Steven wants to clarify that he is not the investor/boss of his upcoming Single Parent Ten Years series but that he works for the company that is investing in that series.
SM: I want to clarify that actually I'm not the boss but that I'm very happy to get to know a very good boss (investor), I thank them for their appreciation of me: to enable me to experience being a producer; to invest in my series production. I'll try out script-writing, or maybe later will also try out directing. But that company is theirs not mine.
TN: Steven just confirms my surmise that he did not open his own studio. Like what I surmise the big boss maybe Beijing Jetsen Technology. In any case, it is good that Steven doesn't have to spend his own money to produce his own series.
Per recent Eileen Cha's interview the very same 'lo ban' has invested close to $200, 000 000 (budget) on Steven.

speculation on Steven's first tv series
With Single Parent 10 Years, Steven's first tv series produced by him will most probably be an
uplifting story emphasizing familial love over romantic, and with great doses of
positiveness and optimism, and societal ills, much like AJCL. It may not appeal to the general public who seek more gratuitous and out there entertainment.
2005 news report
Steven: Because if I truly want to communicate my viewpoints (tn: on family and society) through books, there are actually other mediums I could use, too. Besides books, I could also do it through TV series by choosing different kinds of characters to portray. I could even write scripts. And also, my characters could convey what I want to communicate to the public. Really not necessary to strictly do it through printed words. Printed words are indeed important, but images/videos could also be used, as well as, audio.
Interviewer: As such, it could be done through different mediums.
S: Exactly. Singing could do that too. Like for instance, I could compose a song about family love, or include some words about the meaning of life. Actually, a lot of stuff are interrelated, no need to relinquish any one of them. link

Besides being a actor, Steven has also recently taken on the role of a tv series producer, too. Currently for his upcoming series, Single Parent Ten Years, 《单亲十年》he is being paid a 6-figure fee (tn: Steven later clarified on his weibo that 6-figure fee is per episode not per series as implied in the news report). But the female lead for the series is still not confirmed from their short list. He said he may film a tvb series next April and that there are plans for him to release a Mandarin music album soon.
When asked about his love life, he said right now it's a blank. When asked if he is against finding a mainland girlfriend Steven says the place should not pose a problem for finding girlfriends, regardless from Hong Kong, Beijing Shanghai, Wuhan or whatever places, they are all ok. So long they mutually appreciate and mutually love each other, it's ok. He thinks the place is never a problem. Hong Kong women have their own good points, likewise, mainland women have their own good points. If you like her, whatever place is good.
What kind of a question is that asking Steven if he is against dating a mainland woman? What was he suppose to say? Yes, he is against? A better phrased question would have been to ask what Steven think about dating a mainland woman vs a Hong Kong woman.
Woah! Steven's Mandarin has improved heaps! Good job!

Steven Ma shoots New TV Series and participates in script-writing
Since leaving TVB, Steven ventured into mainland to dig gold. After finishing the pre-modern series, Yuan Yang Pei《鸳鸯佩》, in September he will go to Wuhan to film a new series, Single Mother Ten Years《单亲十年》, and this time he will participate in the script-writing work. When asked if he personally picks the female lead himself, Steven says he will give his opinion but will not interfere with the producer's and director's decision. However, at the moment, the female lead has not been confirmed.
Asked if he will be paid for both his script-writing and acting jobs, Steven laughs and says that boss is really nice, and that he/she will invest again in another tv series for him to act in so his script-writing fee is appropriate and discretionary to his effort. Asked him if because as lead actor his fee is high already so did not contest? (tn: the modest fee for his script-writing work) Steven laughs: "Still need some 'petty cash' but since there will be another series to come, it doesn't matter."
He reveals that next year he will take on the role of a director to film a tv series, but he will continue his acting at the same time be involved in the behind the scenes work. And he does not rule out in the future he may also invest in producing series, will have to wait and see how much he can earn within the next two years.
Just now per a reliable source, the previous Shenzhen filming location has been canceled. Oh dear, the fans there got to be brokenhearted. They had been looking so forward to that ever since Steven revealed to them during their fans visit in April (?) he would be in Shenzhen for his next filming.

Steven in Beijing 7/13/2012
Steven's flight departure out of Wuhan was delayed for a long time. It was daybreak when their plane finally touched down in Beijing.
Though Steven looks as if he just got out of bed and eyes looking tired, I really like his unvarnished good looks - straight, high nose; sensuous, soft red lips; shadowy stubbles; a firm square chin, and a nice, manly face shape above a stark, black t-shirt. And that hint of a smile.
Steven looking young and casual in the above photo. Drinking wine already so early in the day?
Steven in Beijing with his upcoming director (tn: probably Director Wong Ka Fai, again) and the series investor, and scriptwriter. The little girl is the young actress in Steven's own scripted series, 'Single Parent 10 years' ＜单亲十年＞ to start filming in Wuhan in September. credit as labeled
