Due to a contractual dispute, Wong Hei’s relationship with TVB turned sour recently – it was reported that because Wong Hei is close with TVB’s General Manager Stephen Chan, he was treated coldly by the company. His contract is set to expire next month (September), however he has not met the number of shows required to fulfill his contractual obligation – recently, someone from TVB’s Artists Department even suggested to Wong Hei that he pay a fine and terminate his contract early, which greatly disappointed him. Even though TVB has denied everything, Wong Hei continues to insist that TVB’s response is ‘inconsistent with the truth’. The situation has gotten to the point where Wong Hei has started to lose sleep over it.
Yesterday morning, Wong Hei posted on his Weibo account, insinuating that the situation was purposefully planned to chase him out: “Sleepless! 16 years -- all the sweat, tears, and blood that I contributed, suddenly swirling around in my head; at the same time, I continue to hear the ‘suggestion’ that a fellow colleague relayed to me, so ear-piercing and heartbreaking. Aiye! Despite how reluctant I am to part with them, I am ultimately no match for the ‘effort’ they spent in 17 months. Aiye!”
One of Wong Hei’s fans could not stand the injustice and so scolded Virginia Lok on Weibo. Wong Hei urged the fan not to make the situation any bigger than it already is: “Don’t make it a big issue! I don’t want Mrs. Chan [TN: Virginia Lok’s husband’s surname is Chan] to make another move against me and make things even more difficult for me. Having to pay a fine to terminate my contract is already bad enough!” Wong Hei also re-emphasized that Virginia Lok is already married and has a child, so it is disrespectful to continue to call her ‘Ms Lok’ – everyone should call her ‘Mrs. Chan’ instead. On his Weibo, Wong Hei also mentioned that it is quite a shame that Mrs Chan’s [Virginia Lok] testimony in court [Stephen Chan’s corruption case] did not get republished in its original text – otherwise, everyone would be able to see her ‘true’ character.
