MING PAO - Jacky Cheung is now embroiled in a lawsuit involving a concert he was supposed to hold in Chengdu, China two years ago. According to a magazine report, the promoter is suing Jacky and Fun Entertainment to court, which is set to go on trial this June in Chengdu. According to the magazine, a representative, Mr. Wong, acted on Mrs. Chan's order to ship HKD $20 million worth of lighting and audio equipment to Chengdu on November 24th to prepare to set up the stage. Because the promoter wasn't able to rent out the venue, Mrs. Chan changed venues on the night of the 27th. Tickets were selling and she didn't want to disappoint the fans. However on the 29th, the new venue was shut down because it wasn't able to obtain a safety license. The concert was forced to be cancelled. The promoter sold HKD $267,000 of tickets to Jacky's Chengdu show. Yesterday we caught up with Jacky's manager Florence Chan Suk-Fan. Mrs. Chan is puzzled by the lawsuit but will respect the orders of the court. An attorney is now handling the matter. -- Anni
