Not sure how true this is but the contractual fees per episode for the leading men at tvb. But of course, it is through endorsements, ads and tv commercial that artistes made the most money from. And Steven definitely lost out in that department.But I do believe that the contractual terms and remuneration must have been extra attractive for Steven to renew the contract, as he was truly ready to walk.

Anyway, depending on when Moses and RL signed their contracts,  Steven's fee must have factored in the inflation since he only signed the contract 2 years ago.  Regardless, glad to see his fee/epi is second on the list.



Top to bottom on the chart:
Name:                      Expiry date   fees per episode
Michael Miu:             2012                 HK$40,000
Steven Ma                  2012                 HK$38,000
Moses Chan               2016                 HK$34,000
Raymond Lam          2017                  HK$34,000
Ron Ng                        2017                 HK$26,000
Kevin Cheng            2014                  HK$28,000
Bosco Wong              2017                 HK$24,000
Kenneth Ma           2016                    HK$18,000

google as of Jan 20 HK$38, 000 = US$4885

round up to US$5000 per episode for 20 episode series = US$100,000 for a 3 months' work?  Per year 3 series = US$300,000?  Which may not be much for celebrities but is a lot for ordinary folks like me.
