A disappointing 30th Year Anniversary for Jacky Cheung

Mr. Jacky Cheung, fondly called as the God of Songs (歌神) has confirmed that he has already parted ways with 20-year-long Manager Mrs. Chan Sok Fan.  Both ended their 20-year-long collaboration as the Dragon Lady and Mr. Cheung were not able to settle on each other's differences.  First is how the Mainland shows were poorly handled, Mrs. Chan was allegedly outsourcing organizers in Mainland China with a fixed rate, but they (not sure whom this "they" is pertaining to) try to bid a higher rate but then sacrifice the quality of the show, or were forced to sell more tickets to compensate the higher rate.  Second was the division of earnings which Mr. Cheung denied that he never asked for his and Mrs. Chan's percentage difference.  Third was that some of the band members were not well compensated thus it reflects on the quality of the show.  Lastly, Mr. Cheung wanted Universal to be included in the tour because the company cannot live on producing albums alone with the current state of market their Music Industry is having.  These were some of the alleged reasons they ended the upcoming 30th Anniversary Tour.

Mr. Cheung previously denied that they're parting ways, but with the recent interviews (Jan. 13, 2015), he admitted that his April-May show at HK Coliseum was already cancelled and all projects must be directed to Universal Music Hong Kong.  He said that there's a management team who handles artists at Universal and he need not sign a contract with them as he is also a part of Universal HK.  He's been receiving offers left and right after news broke about his manager.  He asked that all offers and projects be directed to Universal as he doesn't want to discuss talent fees directly.  He also divulged that he's going to have a year-end concert overseas. He won't be able to celebrate his 30th Anniversary in the showbiz industry, he said: "Alan Tam is already celebrating his 40th Anniversary, what is a 30th anniversary compared to it?" He also said that a 31st anniversary is longer than the 30th, so it doesn't matter when he celebrates it.

Mrs. Chan Sok Fan's reaction
Mrs. Chan's very agitated reply with all of these reports was: "It goes without saying that the one who knows everything became the one who doesn't know everything, these things have no basis and are all very much twisted. There is no need for a third person to answer with regards to all of the collaborations Jacky and I had in the past.  Jacky Cheung has the freedom to do whatever he wants during his past, the current and even the future.  He can appoint anyone or any company to do his work, I sincerely hope he'll be even more successful with his career. All the best for him." (Actually, the report thought the last two lines were filled with sarcasm)

"她表示“所谓知情者实在全不知情，毫无根据 歪曲事实。我与张学友之间以往的合作关系，无需要第三者来作答。张学友过往 现在 将来一直都可自由及按个人意愿。交给他指定的任何人或单位处理他的工作，我真诚祝福张学友事业更上一层楼 开心幸福."

I wish they could still settle each other's differences but I guess there's a reason why he finally stopped collaborating with Mrs. Chan.  It's a shame that after 20 years of working together, they still have to part ways.  It's quite sad and I hope the new handler of Mr. Cheung can take care of him better.  Hoping to watch him again this year!
