Some time ago, Cheng Chung-kee posted a message saying that he had "decided to leave after the Kaohsiung concert" so that he could take a rest, which triggered suspicions of "withdrawing from the industry."
However, another post mentioned problems with the agent’s work and ethics by name, triggering various speculations among netizens.
html On August 6, Zheng Zhongji finally issued a long article in response to the "rest" issue.This long article contains quite a lot of information. Let’s look at it bit by bit.
First, he mentioned that things at the company will continue to operate as usual.
This naturally refers to the company he mentioned before, Mobile Entertainment. This is Cheng Zhongji’s personal manager company. This company sets up a channel online under the name of "Mobile TV Station rtv" and produces some variety shows and talk shows, among which it is relatively out of the circle. The most popular one is the "Unbelievable" series hosted by Cheng Chung-kee himself. It mainly reads submission letters from netizens. The content is funny and Cheng Chung-kee's hilarious performance is outstanding.
As the "Unbelievable" series became popular, this company also began to sign artists. In 2023, it conducted a reality show to recruit actors and selected six newcomers. It now has several artists including Zhou Zhihui, Chen Zhaoxuan, Li Huanlin, and He Qiu.
Therefore, before Zheng Zhongji posted an article saying that he and "Motor Entertainment have terminated cooperation", most netizens speculated that there was a clerical error or improper expression, because Zheng Zhongji himself is the boss of the company. If he feels that the employees are not suitable, he can just fire them. How can any employee do anything wrong? What’s the reason for the boss to quit the company on his own? However, judging from Cheng Zhongji's new response, the company should still be operating normally, but if he himself has to take a break and not appear on the scene, the "Unbelievable" series will probably not be updated.
netizen lamented: It’s really wee~ unbelievable.
Later, Zheng Zhongji mentioned his own problems, saying that he had been an immature person who did not know how to deal with pressure for many years. In 2000, he made a drunken disturbance on a plane, and later decided to quit drinking. After that, he went through a short marriage...
Later, when he met his wife, Ms. Yu Simin, he felt that he was entering another stage of life. They started a family and had two children, which was a very happy thing. But when faced with pressure and work, he found that there was no way to completely solve his problems, so he chose to drink to escape reality.
Looking back, the Drunken Jet incident was quite a big deal. Originally, Ronald Cheng was regarded as "Jacky Cheung's successor", but after the Drunken Jet incident, the entire career came to a halt.
In the hit song "Scoundrel" that later became his hit, the first line is "I get drunk from time to time, I like freedom very much, I often make mistakes and lie, but I always feel guilty...". The song represents the trough he has experienced over the years. traces of mind.
The secret marriage with Asa caused a setback in their careers. At that time, Asa and Cheng Zhongji had an agreement not to tell people around them, so even Gillian and Joey Yung didn't know about it. You can imagine the relationship between Asa and Cheng Zhongji. There is so much pressure in marriage, so after the divorce broke out, the pressure on the two of them was also huge.
But these ups and downs faded away after Cheng Zhongji and Yu Simin returned to their families after their marriage. And for a while, everyone also discovered that Cheng Zhongji turned out to be a hidden master of photography, and then discovered that he is actually a talented person in many aspects. , he slowly got out of the slump. From the beginning, he could only act in comedies in movies to entertain everyone, and finally he was able to return to the music scene and start singing, and was accepted by the public. It took him a long time to get out of it.
also did well with the "Unbelievable" program. He recently started singing in Kaohsiung. No one thought that he would have another drinking problem in private. People also didn't know that he always made fun of netizens' comments on the program. In fact, he There are also many problems that cannot be solved by oneself.
So at the end of the long article, Zheng Zhongji said that he would solve the problems between himself and the company. After completing the work at hand, his wife would accompany him to the United States to attend treatment at an alcohol rehab center. He hoped to be a better person after returning. Own.
In summary, it can be seen that he has no expression of "withdrawing from the circle", he just wants to handle his own affairs.
But the main point of this long article is to cause people to speculate: Why did he mention the drunken sex and secret marriage incidents so many years ago?
What does his drinking have to do with the company's problems? Previously, agents were mentioned by name, but now this article doesn’t mention a word about agents, so what happened to them?
responded to this long article without seeming to have a specific response, which made netizens even more confused.
You must know that Cheng Zhongji's wife has been posting various negative remarks on social platforms since last year, saying, "I didn't think you would have buried the grievances when I chased her."
also mentioned, "If he loves me, he will take care of everything around him. If not, you just don't love me."...
also said, "Please be cruel to me in the second half of the year. Let me indulge in making money. I will lose weight day by day. There is no love." Yes, but not if you don’t have money.”
The most forbearing curiosity was that she predicted that something big was about to happen and asked everyone, "want to see?"
The last thing that greeted us was that Ronald Cheng said he wanted to take a rest, so if something big happened, did he mean that he was going to quit drinking?
What about the agent? If a broker does something that is detrimental to the company's interests, it must be resolved through legal or other channels. Direct contact without making it clear will only lead to speculation. Now that I have written a long article and still haven’t made it clear, this kind of speculation will continue.
But it is indeed like what Zheng Zhongji said. Now that you are 50, it is time to think clearly about how to face yourself. When work and life are in a mess, you have to find a reason to take a rest and think about the problems. Well, let’s sort it out bit by bit to solve it.
just don’t know if “Brother Tyrannosaurus” will have a chance to become famous again after such a setback?
