Actor Anthony Wong expressed his anger over the recent occurrence that involves the police and protesters.

According to a report on HK Top Ten, the actor turned to Facebook to express his fury after hearing the police announcing the deployment of 7000 officers and the use of 87 tear gas canisters against unarmed students and citizens to end the protest two days ago.

He wrote, "That's enough for a war! Do the protestors have any weapon? Are they Wong Fei Hung, who can use a minor thing like an umbrella as a weapon?"

"87 tear gas bombs against umbrellas... Hong Kong is truly amazing. Amazing!" he said.

He continued mocking the police, saying, "This just in, due to the effects of Occupy Central, the 1 October fireworks show has been cancelled and will be replaced with the launch of tear gas and smoke bombs! Don't forget to bring your umbrella when you go out!"

Bosco Wong, Vincent Wong, Yoyo Chen and Myolie Wu were all secretly photographed by tabloid magazines Sudden Weekly and FACE in their own homes. Bosco and Vincent were both captured nude. Though TVB have already issued a statement expressing that they are shutting out the two magazines and prohibit them from entering TVB City, but many artists still felt this only treated the symptoms of the problem and not the root cause, not very effective.

It was understood that because TVB saw the whole industry shaking over this incident, yesterday TVB takes it up a notch and decides to have the four victims Bosco, Myolie, Yoyo and Vincent head over to the Hong Kong's Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) on June 27th to file a complaint.

To fight for the privacy of artists

Yesterday reporters contacted TVB Department of Foreign Affairs Deputy Director (Tsang Sing Ming) to clarify. He admitted that TVB has decided to take this action, he said: "TVB considered the victims' feelings, so made arrangements for them to file a complaint with the PCPD. TVB will also completely support them." Asked if there will be a TVB executive that will accompany them? Mr. Tsang expressed he does not know yet, a meeting will still have to take place to discuss the details.

Yesterday when 'nude photo incident' victim Bosco Wong heard of TVB's arrangements, he expressed it is also his personal wish. He said: "We hope to unite together and pass on the incident to the professionals to handle, and hope that the related department in the government can face the issue squarely. This action is not to investigate into the incident, but we just hope that all artists can have their privacy. Actually when the media takes these types of pictures, can they really publish them, how will it be handled?"

The premier screening of the movie Laughing Gor's Turning Point, which stars Michael Tse, Anthony Wong, Francis Ng, and Cheng Fala, was met with an impressive turnout of over a hundred celebrities. However, Wong left in protest as soon as he arrived due to seating arrangement problems. He raged that the organizers did not arrange a seat for him and criticized, "Don't arrange such things if you don't know how to do it!"

In a tailored white suit, Wong stole the limelight from lead actor Tse who portrays the titular Laughing Gor which made him a household name. In a flashy entrance, Wong walked arm-in-arm with two of the hottest ladies present that night, Koni Liu and Lorretta Chow. He was in a visibly jolly good mood as he jested, "I definitely feel that they are the sexiest girls present. I feel so lucky that I can't express myself in words."

But that jolly mood did not last long as he haughtily left the event soon after he arrived, "I have a ticket but no place to sit atI'm like the supporting actor now. Do I not look angry?!" and continued, "Don't arrange such things if you don't know how to do it! I look like an idiot standing." Despite the actor's rage, a spokesperson of the company explained that Anthony might be merely joking around as there were pre-reserved seats for him.

The spokesperson clarified that there were already pre-reserved seats for the main cast and the director. "Anthony did not say he was angry over this matter. As it was a large-scale event, he was naturally nervous and wanted to take a seat the moment he entered. However, someone told him that the seat was reserved for other guests." She was too busy entertaining others that night and explained that she would have definitely tried to appease him if she knew of the incident. Michael disclosed that the company had no experience in organizing such things and sought for Anthony's forgiveness.

The company will try to make up for their folly by inviting Anthony for the show's screening tonight.

Usually when I'm at home, I often do the cooking, I really enjoy the process of cooking. I just need my family to try my cooking and feel that it tastes good, then I'll be very happy. But, recently because I'm busy filming, I don't cook as often, fortunately my wife still makes me soup to drink."

Had always had opinions on what to eat, Francis was harsh on scoring the guests' creations, he described Anthony's dish as "scam chicken", when you open it theres blood all over the meat, its more like a human roast chicken! (yan yuk cha siu gai); As for Michael's chicken, it was half cooked half raw and cannot be eaten. Micahel explained: "Usually at the restaurants when I cut my chicken, it looks just like that!" Once Michael said that, Francis immediately lectured him: "You tell me which restaurant that is, if it's not cooked, you can't eat it. It's just like if you're singing and didn't memorize the lyrics, you can't sing on key, I don't even know what you want!"

The hotel/residence style of his home has changed. A lot of prostitutes have been seen downstairs in the lobby where he lives. He is hoping to move away from the hotel as soon as possible. "There are few girls dressed up very sexy downstairs. Although they didn't bother me, there seems to be more people around now. Once, I got home at 3am after work, there was a girl in red hiding in the corner of the hotel. It frightened the life of me. Thank goodness someone took her upstairs afterwards.

Juno was not wearing his lover's ring. He stressed that was not a lover's ring. Ah Gill and him are good friend, they would not argue.

Reporter asked if he will have a concert to promote the album, he said "The company wanted me to have a show in The HK Coliseum next year. But I wanted to have a new record first. I might not have a big concert in HK. I am thinking of targeting the mainland. I haven't been to a lot of places in the mainland. Earlier on there were talks about performing in Beijing. Because of the Olympic, the plan was cancelled."

She found out it took Anthony 2 years to finish his, she said "I am not that late after all" Asked if the company has asked her to harry up, Shirley replied" I am the one who ask for more songs. Maybe the company is new and the audience have different taste. It is very difficult to find suitable songs."

"Money Empire" Begins Filming

Eason Chan, who just returned to Hong Kong from Taiwan, was seen in Kowloon City on August 23, 2008 filming a segment for the upcoming film 金錢帝國 Money Empire (tentative), whose cast includes two Best Supporting Actors, Tony Leung Ka Fai and Anthony Wong Chau Sung. For his segment, Eason had to act like he was drunk, fall down to the ground and bang his head against the wall.

Even after banging his head against the wall and falling to the ground, Wong Jing (producer) was not satisfied and personally guided the camera angle, which led to Eason having to fall down on the stairs 5 to 6 times before everything was set, and ended up taking a couple of hours. Despite his arms and legs red and swollen from the bumping and falling there were no complaints; he is indeed earning his money the hard way.

(Note: New tentative title is 金錢帝國 Money Empire, previously rumored title was 金錢世界 Money's World.)
