Recently, Hong Kong star Gu Ji suddenly became a hot topic because of his brother-in-law's debt, which aroused the attention and heated discussion of many netizens.
According to media reports, Ku Juji's brother-in-law is suspected of gambling and is in debt worth millions. Now no one in the brother-in-law's family is under such great debt pressure. As a result, Ku Juji's father-in-law was disappointed and heartbroken, and publicly stated that he wanted to sever ties with his brother-in-law.
Because of this matter, Ku Juji himself also responded to his own views. He expressed that he was very sad about the mental pressure that his father-in-law and his wife were facing during this period, especially because his parents-in-law were old. Facing this bottomless pit over the past few years, everyone has reached the point where they are helpless. He and his wife understand and respect the difficult decision made by his parents-in-law, and hope that everyone can give some space to the family.
As we all know, Leo Ku and his wife Chen Yingxue have been in love for many years. After getting married in 2014, the two kept a low profile until they gave birth to a son in 2019 and successfully upgraded to a happy family of three. Ku Juji's brother-in-law Chen Yuxin was addicted to gambling in his early years, and his family has paid off his debt of HK$3 million.
Unexpectedly, this was such a bottomless pit that Chen's father had no choice but to cut off relations with him. He issued a statement and posted it outside the door of Chen's restaurant. It was obvious that he no longer wanted to deal with his son's debt problem, and he also directly and publicly informed his creditors. , there is no need to come to see the Chen family.
As Ku Juji said, the family members must have endured a lot of mental pressure before finally deciding to publicly sever ties. Perhaps they also wanted to let the brother-in-law's creditors know about it and stop lending money to each other.
Some netizens speculated that Ku Juji’s father-in-law’s family must have been harassed by creditors, so they posted the statement at the door of their restaurant, probably to avoid the restaurant being affected as much as possible. Some netizens feel that Leo Ku has always loved and respected his wife, and he would not let his wife face the family's difficulties alone.
In fact, in addition to Ku Juji, there are also many relatives of celebrities in the industry who are addicted to gambling and are in debt, and some are even seriously dragged down by their relatives.
For example, Jacky Cheung, the brother of singer Jacky Cheung, once owed a huge debt of HK$5 million. Jacky Cheung did not hesitate to borrow money from the company to pay off his brother's debt.
But Jacky Cheung was still stubborn and later owed a debt of 6 million Hong Kong dollars. This time Jacky Cheung could only make up his mind to sever ties with him. He also issued a special statement stating that the money owed by Jacky Cheung had nothing to do with him anymore. The two brothers had nothing to do with him. No more contact.
Also facing a relative’s gambling addiction is the male idol Andy Lau.
Andy Lau was born in a poor family and was the fourth eldest child in the family. In order to reduce the burden on the family, Andy Lau dropped out of school early to support the family. Andy Lau has admired his eldest sister since he was a child.
After Andy Lau entered the entertainment industry and showed his outstanding artistic talent, he became the "King Liu" in the hearts of countless people. He also supported his family as much as possible, providing them with a comfortable residence and regular payment of various expenses.
For his eldest sister, who has taken care of him since childhood, Andy Lau also helped his eldest sister's children complete their studies and bought real estate and cars for her family. What is surprising is that the eldest sister Andy Lau not only quit her job after her brother became famous, but also became addicted to gambling. Whenever she was in debt, she asked her brother Andy for money.
At first, Andy Lau paid off his sister's debt every time and repeatedly advised her not to gamble anymore. However, the eldest sister worsened and owed tens of millions of gambling debts, and even sold the real estate that Andy Lau purchased for her.
The most outrageous thing is that Andy Lau's eldest sister sold high-priced tickets to fans in the name of Andy Lau's concert. After Andy Lau knew that the fans had been deceived, he immediately refunded the fans' ticket money, and then decided to sever ties with the eldest sister and no longer have any contact with her.
Andy Lau's sister now lives in a slum. She previously said that she and Andy Lau have not seen each other for nearly 20 years, and she only thinks that he is dead. From being dependent on each other to being like strangers now, the Andy Lau siblings are quite pitiable.
Another male star Mingdao, his brother Lin Minghong is also addicted to gambling. As early as 2013, he took out Mingdao's ID card to borrow money to speculate in stocks. At that time, Mingdao had just returned from military service, but his brother's creditor encountered him. He openly solicited debts at his movie press conference.
Although Mingdao also helped his brother pay off a lot of debts, the other brother was still addicted to it. News of debts came out repeatedly, which affected Mingdao's career to a certain extent.
Later, Mingdao had no choice but to publicly cut ties with his brother Lin Minghong, saying that he had never been involved in gambling. Even if something happened to his relatives, he should be responsible for himself.
In fact, since Mingdao became famous, he has always been very good to his family. He also bought luxury homes for his parents and brother, and regularly provided living expenses for his family. Unexpectedly, after his military service, his brother became addicted to gambling and went astray.
What is even more shocking is that Lin Minghong collapsed completely after being unable to repay his debts. He not only strangled his wife and children, but also hanged himself, leading to a family tragedy.
I have seen these celebrities whose relatives are addicted to gambling. They have also sacrificed a lot for their families, but in the end they can only sever ties with their relatives because of the word "greed". It is also very helpless and heartbreaking.
