They have also ensured coverage with ingenious promotion tactics, including a recent public exchange of caustic words among themselves that could well be an act designed to titillate. The meteoric rise of these nubile langmo seems to be unique to Hong Kong, attracting even people who aren't regular followers of entertainment news. Among those taking an interest in the phenomenon is Victor Fung Keung, veteran journalist and principal lecturer at Hong Kong Baptist University. Fung is a prolific writer on issues of public interest. His works in recent years include books such as Enhancing Your English Skills with Editorials, and Improving Your English Skills with Governors' Speeches. He aims to complete six more before the year ends, with one of the books targeting these langmo, also known as pseudo models. The working title is ``Bolstering Pseudo Models' English Skills,'' and its purpose is to help them break into the international arena. As an academic, Fung's line of work doesn't put him in contact with young models, so he went to the recent Book Fair at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre to get one of them to collaborate on the project. But I heard he failed to find a suitable candidate, as most models had moved to their ``battleground,'' the Ani-Com & Games fair that ended Tuesday. That models like Chrissie Chau Sau-na, Angelababy and Rainbow are leveraging their careers on their cleavage is nothing new, but enhancing marketability by upgrading their English skills is a rather fresh selling point. Clearly, Fung is more creative in terms of marketing these young women than their own managers.
