 |  Subject: The Edison fiasco...  Sat 9 Feb - 21:46 | |
| I don't know if any of you are interested in discussing the fallout from the Edison Chan photo leak scandal. Early last week the Asian newspapers and Entertainment agencies were crying foul and saying the whole thing was a fake... then Edison went public and on TV asked everyone to refrain from downloading and sending the images to friends. He also pleaded with everyone to delete any images they had. However, events have not blown over as there has been a constant leaking of images on a daily basis by a character called Kira. For me, this indicates there is true malice at the foundation of this scandal. Kira keeps promising more, and is actively taunting police and other authorities to try and stop him.
As of today these are the girls/woman involved in the scandal
- Gillian Chung
- Cecilia Chung
- Bobo Chan
- Rachel Ngan
- Candice Chan
- Vincy Yeung
- Mandy Chen Yu Ru
...I have been hearing very sad stories regarding how these woman have been affected by the revealed photos
What looked like a personal attack against Edison Chan with the girls inadvertantly being the ones to suffer most, may actually be part of a much bigger planned event. There was an article on a Chinese site that explained some of the fightening developments. A friend of mine translated it.
| Quote: | In Hong Kong, there are two artist agencies:
Emperor Entertainment (headed by Albert Yeung)
China Star Entertainment (headed by Charles and Jimmy Heung).
Both companies have triad backgrounds and in the Edison Chen photo affair, everyone involved was part of Emperor Entertainment and Albert Yeung.
Who is Edison Chen? Well he is a:
- A. A popular singer movie star idol
- B. The proprietor of a small clothing shop
- C. Once romantically involved with Gillian Chung, Cecilia Chung, Bobo Chan, Mandy Chen and Rachel Ngan etc.
- D. The son of a wealthy businessman
- E. The current boyfriend of Vincy Yeung, the niece of Albert Yeung
"Kira" began with the release of photographs of Emperor Entertainment's Gillian Chung and China Star Entertainment traitor Cecilia Cheung currently working for Emperor Entertainment. Many now are certain that China Star Entertainment is a likely suspect here. The question of this affair being an attack against a major corporation is now being considered.
... When the Edison Chen photographs came out, the Emperor Entertainment Group and the Hong Kong police were in disarray. The HK underworld was shaken up too and a newspaper reported a HKD 3 million reward for capturing "Kira". |
The fact that Emperor Entertainment mogal has been involved in every girl released over the last week is bad enough...the fact that the last girl to be implicated is Albert Yeung niece cannot be ignored and neither will it be without consequence. The whole affair is rife with malice and deliberate intent...I am wondering just how far this will go.
A sad week for HK entertainment

| This story is taking a unbelievable proportion. I do not know the nature of these pictures but I think having some on our HD will be source of some legal trouble. I never heard about such nasty events in asian entertainment before reading your message here.
Sad sad sad. I dislike people acting so. |

| Hello Kawaii Hime
Here is some more from a someone I know in HK. His English maybe difficult for some but he has done his best.
| Quote: | indeed yup theres a hugeass story to this
many of hte hk celebs are under the label EEG, and their boss is a crook(nice word..the vocab i wanted to find)
that guy's known to be pretty much a thug, and there are many stories about higher connections up in the power and wealth levels, and they often have the celebs like twins and joey to entertain the boss
there are many rumors aobut edison and deep ng and people that were involved in drugs...and there are stories about they're ordered by eeg's boss and to do these for them
so yea, eeg's been known to be a very notorious label..but those serving under EEG are bound to have fame and shit...for the expense of true happiness and freedom
well known celebs in eeg include joey, twins, yumiko, nicholas tse, grace yip, vincy chan(new), edison(former), eason(former),sun boyz, and many others, and of course the famous one, jackie chan
and jackie chan's been known to be like the boss, mr yeung, as perverted and shit
hk's leading karaoke place, neway, is owned by them, and there are witnesses(employees) saying they saw gillian stripping for mr yeung and jackie chan in private rooms
of course those are just allegations,and no one's brave enough to step forward and criticize
there are many viral maketing schemes commited by EEG, but not involving turning them into animals at this point
however the fact is, EEG might be under threat, and it's not surprising since the company itself is quite corrupted
nicholas entered the entertainment business because to help his dad pay off debt(sold by his dad), and both edison and cecilia were buddies, but now cecilia was married to nicholas (in opposition to his parents) because they loved each other..but this event's gonna stir. even though cecilia probably commited the photos before with nicholas, but we can imagine what he'll think
edison also was a former, but he left eeg, and as for him, he's made tonz of enemies throughout his career. gillian came out to criticize him before(twins as in both was known to be pretty mean in normal life), and i assume those pics were him with them before he left eeg
-----
side topic
andy and others lke miriam, jade kwan, niki chow, former cookies, and more than half others arent under EEG, so their life might be easier
---------
and on those hk forums, some explained this is an act of revenge against eeg and edison, and especially to destroy their careers (and gonna heavily put edison's life at risk, and the victims..if they cant handle such an attack), so that's why these pictures were being released to public when if sold, could make tonz of money
it's been said the photos circulated up there for aw hile, but always kept in the dark, and now recently it seems like some changes up there has led to this outburst
most of the artists dont like this event, but they're very subtle in their voices and are wise/smart enough to say lil to nothing at all. it's not surprising if even TVB celebs and other singers were instructed by their companies not to say a damn word. u can tell by the way how none of the artists came out forward to say anything, because they're all scared and shit. also the smart celebs know that in this field, the more ambitious and aggressive u are, the harder ur life becomes...so they stay strictly within their role and be really low profile than getting connections with the wealthy and powerful if they want an easy life
most celebs right now..such as anthony wong, and other singers..they all didnt come out to voice their opinions or say anything...while fuckhead like alan tam instead came out to criticize the public and said they should be shameful and the artists were right..but of course hes full of shit himself and now being criticized for being a loudmouth when he wasnt any better(him and his affairs. [i personally didnt like him when he criticized ayu, my idol], but him as a loudmouth now is shown)
-------
carina lau's case was an example of corporate revenger..(perhaps)
-------
the media+papparazzis(some controlled by high level wealthy people), and the public are sensitive , and of course twins + joey being eeg's main chess piece, are bound to take hits
edison will be in danger, while gillian probably wont stay in this field long anymore..bobo's about to get married, and herself might get in shit. cecilia's marriage might be in jeapordy
-----------
edison as mfker, has around 1300 photos,and heard there will be around 14 celebrities involved
so far released included EEG's boss' niece vincy yeung, gillian, candice, rachel ngan, bobo, cecilia..and heard soon jolin and miriam might be involved and released too
and of course the coward went back to US within 2 days after the outbreak
-------
joey's scandal involved where joey, being a stupid mouth, said some stupid shit that angered her boss mr yeung. he demanded threesome with her and her mom...and also there were lots of stories involving joey brought to hospital with spring roll stuck down there. carina lau and grace yip stories were also heard...about them in pain and things and brought to hospital
so mr yeung as a monster was well known. all smart celebs in eeg will leave asap. that's why u see eason quitting eeg. in one interview, he's said that doesnt like to talk about his times in eeg. this showed how he didnt like to be reminded of his experience there |

| Hello Lust,
nothing never fail on internet. I guess these pictures are overloading the broadband at this precise moment. well see some of them poping out without searching for them.
anyway I've not understood the motivation but this looks like a footkick in an ant city.

Wow, very nicely summed up! Anyway, I think the motivation will eventually be disclosed. And I think it will be very bad. |

| Well, here is some more notes from Hong Kong. As I follow this story, it is becoming fairly obvious that HK entertainment is not, and was not all about shlock and gloss, but there was some really deep seated power behind the lights and bright smiles...
| Quote: | what hk entertainment industry needs will be whisltblower, but then probably everyone fear for their lives
a problem with hk society is that ppl tend not to do anything or to come out and stand for wts right..but rather only mind their own business
edison tried a nice way, but now he cant do anything
but to hide and stay outta hk forever...he couldve asked forf forgiveness from his gf, the biggest, best, and most powerful supporter and a potential person to save his fate, but now with his gf's photos also relieased (Vincy Yeung, boss's niece), well now he's in a lot of trouble...
not only jas he lost this support, but also upset the boss's niece and the boss at personal level..he's in deep trouble.
u wronged bobo and not too big problem. u wronged cecilia and tha's a problem already...she is nicholas wife..
u wronged gillian chung and u're dead...she is Emperor Entertainment's flagship.
but u wronged vincy yeung..that's a fatal mistake...the worst of all...
like edison, jin tried to hit the hk music industry, and failed really bad
perhaps hk music cant get out of the small lil corrupted/filth circle it's in, and no room for new music, ideas, and creation. the cycle's gonna repeat, like everywhere else where theres another cylical system going on..until the media, public, can face this issue positively. |

| Wow! When I read about this I think, "FR!DAY magazine articles about singers with boyfriends is nothing!"
I don't know any of these people except of course Gillian Chung who is 1/2 of very popular singing group and Jackie Chan who is more American star every day. But I know very much about internet and privacy and personal behavior in crowded society, okay? and my opinion = there is no privacy in 21st Century cyber world, therefore do not allow your words or picture to someone who is not your family, unless you are willing for everyone in entire Earth to see; and do not do actions anywhere in public unless you are willing for everyone in Earth to see, because your actions will be in YouTube next day!
These girls are silly or not thinking, so become victims of their mistakes or victims of other people being mean and greedy. This guy Edison, I don't know about him, maybe he is just typical lecherous entertainer, we say sukebe in Japanese, I think everyone knows similar person, yes? I think Chinese society is not so tolerant as Japanese society about sexual related mistakes because Chinese people are more conservative about sexual things, so this will be very serious for everyone especially involved companies.
I think in USA some former Miss America beauty contest winner, she made some sexy nude photos showing lesbian behavior and these were published in magazine after she won contest! so she declined winning and apologized her past behavior, yes? but now many years later she is famous singer and actress and no one cares. This will not happen in China, everyone cares! because in China everything is about money, so sorry but this is truth.

| This is the latest bit from Kira, the man behind the scandal
| Quote: | Another updated notice from Kira:
“Video will be uploaded when Gillian Chung appears in public today”.
The Edison Chen sex photos scandal is really getting out of hand as the days go by instead of winding down. At around 2300 hours last night, a netizen posted a message in Tianya.cn forums stating that the moment Gillian Chung makes her public appearance today, he/she will post the video simultaneously!
'Thank you everyone for your support.
1) I am not using the photos/videos to extort money and this is to rebuke earlier reports that I am extorting money for this.
2) What Jackie Chan said today in an interview made me very unhappy. He even goes on to say that Jackie is somewhat implicated in the video (?) It’s believed that he is responding to Jackie Chan’s plea to netizens not to care about the photos but show care for those affected by the snowstorms instead.
3) A video will be released the moment Gillian appears in public later this afternoon
There seems to be something going on behind the scenes since “Kira” seems to be either using Gillian to elevate the scandal even further or trying to stop her from appearing at all! What unpredictability this is turning out to be. |

| | Hello fumi, yes this is an affair that has gotten totally out of control. The images in question are far more than nudey pics or a couple of blurred images of a couple having sex. They are more explicit and crude...very like you would see in the baser porn shoots really. For high profile stars to be viewed with sex toys, masterbation shots and numerous shots of oral sex...this is far from the "image" they want to create for their public. For mainstream HK stars this will be difficult to live down. It is a scandal in the largest sense of the word. It is ripping a major industy to bits. Very sad that it is affecting so many people so badly. |

| Another post...saga continues...
| Quote: | Article titled: “If you can smell what Kira is cooking“
It seems like no one knows what the real intention of Kira is behind his biggest scandal ever to hit Hong Kong. Speculation of extortion and revenge against Edison Chen/Albert Yeung (EEG boss) has been mooted but not confirmed.
There was new speculation that “Kira” is actually a group of three who actually got hold of the photos and videos last year and had tried to extort money from Edison Chen. Edison Chen told Albert Yeung about it and through some ways, they set a trap and managed to ensnare one of them. The other two however got away and are believed to have escaped to Thailand and Indonesia and continued to extort money from them.
They continued negotiations but it never worked out as they kept jacking up the prices with every additional day. “Kira” is now biding his time and has even more shocking material that has yet to see daylight because they are his bargaining chips. Bobo Chan’s pictures plus those of Gillian, Cecilia were just sacrificial lambs. Vincy Yeung’s photos was to shock EEG and Albert Yeung that they are not to be taken lightly. “Kira” is just slowly posting the pictures to cover his tracks and increase his bargaining chips.
“Kira” promised a video and 600 pictures on the first day of Chinese New Year. It has been three days since then and we have no video. Pictures though have been released in batches like episodes from a soap opera.
Yesterday, belonged to Bobo Chan as about 71 pictures of never seen before photos was leaked onto the internet. In one of the photos, we can clearly see part of Edison’s face who is clearly taking the picture. This followed the day before where Gillian and Cecilia had more photos of themselves released.
Edison’s present girlfriend, Vincy Yeung was not spared from this as three photos of her coming out from the showers was leaked on the internet. One photo shows her showering, another sees her looking towards the camera, all indicating that she knows she was being photographed in the buff.
Edison has been edited away from his Stephen Chow movie which will be re-filmed while Manhattan Titanium, a credit card company has pulled advertisements of him endorsing the card. Rumours abound that Edison Chen left Hong Kong immediately because he knew Vincy photo’s would be leaked sooner or later. Albert Yeung, Vincy’s uncle, is reportedly furious with Edison as he dotes on her very much. Report say that Edison is extremely depressed over this and has not eaten nor step out of his house for the past few days. |

| Dammitt, that's moving very fast now. that's not a small gossip system, this is clearly organized and based on a huge collection of unwanted graphical advertising.
I'll follow Fumiko's though, saying that what's happening in japanses tabloid about one girl having spend a night with a friend (not a sex tape, just one night)... that's seems disproportionate.
I have a few awful real items in my collection, the bad things you caught when you search something else. from them I have some scandal videos (two korean celibrities and the dumbass Hilton who don't count for me). I can understand that the release of these videos could be armfull for a female celibrity's image. at least me and Fumiko will be at years light to imagine what could happen if one of our adorable Musume will have a stollen video depicting her having avide oral sex with a selected perv congregation. although we don't care if they really have these parties, but we just don't want to learn about the existence of a physical support of these events. world is going bad. I can't find an excuse for this privacy violation. maybe I'm a bit hypocrit, not willing to learn.

No. I am pretty good with Photoshop and know what can and cannot be done. I also know that lighting angles are the best way to determine fakes...it is very difficult to match up lighting from one image source and layer it onto another.
But when images are shot concurrently from a video camera and the stills are posted...no...then it is practically impossible to fake as there are too many slight alterations of lighting angles and variations on face profile to body...too difficult.
HK media initially tried to say they were fake and showed where in the picture the fakes were obvious. But that was when only one or two images were out...now there are hundreds...often with 10+ images shot within the same second or so. The media and police will look very silly if the keep trying to say they are fake...especially as Edison and Gillian have gone live to address the leak of photos. |

| Ok la kamikaze,
French :
C'est d'un banal, tu vas voir ça.
C'est l'histoire d'un artiste qui aime les femmes.
Il les aime tellement qu'il en séduit souvent, pas n'importe lesquelles, des stars du cinema HK.
Donc il les séduit, les invite dans son lit et craccrac.
En même temps il appuis sur le bouton "record" de son camescope, visiblement avec l'accord de la demoiselle.
Ensuite il découpe ses films et se constitue un album photo (de souvenir ?) j'en sais rien.
Comme il aime beaucoup les femmes, il refait le coup plein de fois avec de nouvelles actrices. Du coup, il a une collection inouïe de photos.
Un jour son PC tombe en panne, et sans réflechir il le rapporte en réparation. Le réparateur remet le PC en route et va faire un peu de tourisme sur le disque dur, ce que font systématiquement tout les réparateurs de PC. J'accuse personne, je constate.
Ce réparateur tombe sur l'album photo, qui ne devait pas être très bien caché ni vérouillé et en fait une copie, puis commence à le diffuser à ses proches. Dans cette équipe de limaces, il y en a un qui semble avoir une bonne idée, c'est ce qu'on voit actuellement en route. Des centaines de photos apparraissent, un peu plus chaque jour, via internet et des messages d'annonces dignes d'un frustré pathologique de la vie.
Voilà voilà, si j'ai mal compris une partie, Prisoner qui suit ça de plus près que moi pourra corriger.
