HANWEI  in COMICS AS FANG LAO SHI


Hanwei is one of the first TCS actors to appear in cartoon. 

In 1995, TCS with Comix Factory produced a comic book on "Fang Lao Shi"'. 

It was launched while Morning Express II was shown

The artist of the comic is "Xiao Gou", a female student who had a few other comics to her credit. In a special interview with "Friday Weekly" at that time, she said that Hanwei is so handsome that she found it difficult to draw him. Indeed, there're  few pictures in there that resemble Hanwei. The artist however managed to capture Hanwei's smartness, suaveness and cuteness.

 

 

 

 

 

           

 

 

Despite a simplistic story, the comics were all snapped up. It enjoyed a re-print and was also sold at the Book Fair the year after. The selling point of course was Hanwei who promoted it at outdoors and also on TV.
