What are some of the big scandals that rocked the chinese/hk/taiwan entertainment world?

 

I already know of the zhang ziyi prostitution, edison chen scandal, and the justin lee drug rape one. Was wondering if there were other big ones since it's hard to find a good english source on chinese entertainment.

Jackie Chan's extramarital affairs and the daughter he had out of wedlock whom he refuses to acknowledge.

 

There's also Andy Lau and Wu Zun keeping their long term gfs (18+ years) turned wives a secret, along with their daughters. But they weren't that shocking because they weren't very well-kept secrets.

Carina Lau's abduction. Taken from wiki (edited):

In 1990, during the filming of Days of Being Wild, Carina Lau was abducted for several hours, and topless photos of her were taken. At the time, local papers, through Reuters news agency, reported that Lau was kidnapped, though a police report was not filed. It was believed that the man behind the kidnapping is Albert Yeung, a successful businessman (and business partner of Tyler Kwon, whom I'm sure you guys have heard of) with whom Lau was having a financial dispute. Tony Leung (Lau's then boyfriend and now husband) has said that Lau never wanted to talk about what happened in those missing hours with anyone, including him.

 

Lau revealed in 2008 that she was abducted by four men working for a triad boss, as "punishment" for having refused a film offer. She said that she had not been taken advantage of during her two-hour ordeal.

 

2002 East Week magazine photo incident

Naked pictures of Carina Lau were published in the October 30, 2002, East Week magazine issue, 12 years after Lau was kidnapped by triads who punished her for refusing to take part in a film they were funding.

 

The nude photos revealed the actress in distress. Massive protests and petitions were held by fellow Hong Kong entertainers, and media ethics by Hong Kong tabloids and gossip magazines were questioned. The magazine was shut down in November 2002, only to be resumed in late 2003.
