Premise

Kevin Li, the creator of HBICtv: Ultra Rich Asian Girls and House My Style, was born and raised on Vancouver's working-class Eastside. During the past decades, he has witnessed the demographics of the city's 400,000-strong Chinese community shift. He grew up with second generation Hong Kong immigrants like himself, then noticed another generation of people flowing into Vancouver - ones who were more affluent with much more money to spend. Inspired by his curiosity of those ultra rich people's lives, Kevin announced a casting call for his series Ultra Rich Asian Girls; and the responses exploded in Canada and Asia.

Ultra Rich Asian Girls features a group of Mandarin-speaking girls, who Li describes as "having fun, spending daddy's money... enjoying life and funding an economy" and follows them as they shop, dine, and attend social functions. The show offers a unique perspective of the lives of ultra rich Asian girls -- specifically examining the new-money class of fuerdai, Chinese "rich second generation", who provoke reactions of both "envy and censure" for their patterns of conspicuous consumption.

Media reviews

Peter Guy of the South China Morning Post called the show a "case study in how not to flaunt wealth," citing the anonymous quote "You show me a highly unequal society and I'll show you a revolution or a police state."

The show Ultra Rich Asian Girls features a cultural drama, girls in the show are not trying to be anyone else, they are trying to be Chinese. Moreover, the show was larger than fashion, wealth and reality TV. "I soon discovered issues of race, culture and gender were also present." said R!c, the editor at Asian Pacific Post. The series targets on the issues of cultural identity and changing trends in Chinese immigration, and the social value in the show "puts a certain group of people on the radar in a different way". (Alden Habacon, Oct 2014)

This series has exploded both in Canada and overseas Asia and has raised social discussion on Asian immigration to North America, and the unique problem of capitals concentration in a communist country like China.
