Man behind Lin Chiling, Edison Chen saga speaks up

The actor accused Chiling of finding a scapegoat

Man behind Lin Chiling, Edison Chen saga speaks up

Hong Kong actor-singer Edison Chen first hit the headlines late last week when he went on a tirade against Taiwanese model Lin Chiling on Weibo.

Later, it was revealed that Edison’s rumoured girlfriend, Chinese model Qin Shupei was axed from upcoming fashion show Hey Muse after Chiling’s team had raised objections about Shupei.

After the producers of Hey Muse continued to deny the rumours, a series of voice recordings were released. In the voice recordings, a male voice could be heard saying, “Lin Chiling’s side doesn’t want you to join the show”.

Later, a man who went by the Weibo nickname of ‘Gentleman’s Scent’ posted on Weibo, claiming to be the man in the voice recordings.

He revealed that he was the agent in charge of finding models for the show and that he had submitted a list of models to the producers for consideration earlier. At that time, Shupei’s name was indeed on the list, but in the end, she was not selected for the show.

He also stated that he had tried to use Chiling’s name as an excuse when Shupei repeatedly asked him why she was excluded. Finally, he apologised to Chiling and Shupei for causing the mess.

He also said that he had texted Shupei after the matter, revealing that he was only in charge of representing the management company. He also explained to her that there will usually be a number of changes before the contract is formally signed. He then ended his post by asking the public to view Shupei in positive light, even after this matter.

Chiling’s manager also posted that “the truth is finally out”, in reply to the man’s ‘confession’.

However, Edison did not seem to be appeased by the post, and posted a picture of a goat on his Weibo yesterday, insinuating that Chiling had merely sought out a scapegoat to clear up the mess.

Shupei also released the entire transcript of her conversation with the model representative, asking ‘Why does everyone still continue to lie?’, hinting that this matter is far from being concluded.
