Description
The morning show at FGN Asia means long hours and high stakes for TV producer Laura Wellesley. Her marriage and career are put to the test as she navigates the cutthroat world of broadcast news, where the anchor is always right - especially when it's American-born Chinese egomaniac Deng Jiang Mao. As the 1997 handover boom fizzles into the Asian economic bust, Laura's life becomes a maze of betrayal, high finance, and personal secrets. Behind the scenes of television news, nothing is as it seems. A behind-the-scenes look at the world of TV news in 1990s Hong Kong, "Hong Kong on Air" is a story about the highs and lows of career and marriage, and the true cost of success.
