Chun promotes new film, no time to rest; loses $1,000,000 from global stock market crash

Lately, Chun has been running around everywhere, to promote for his new film “Butterfly Lovers”. Everyday, for one month, he has not been able to sleep for more than 3 hours per day, and he is so busy that he does not have time to check his e-mails, which he claims makes him feel uneasy, “I have to take care of my fitness centre in Brunei and there are a lot of e-mails I need to reply.” Being the boss, he understands the concept of investment, but lately there has been a global stock market crash, causing him to lose almost $TW1,000,000.

Last week “Butterfly Lovers” earned a massive $640,000 from box office and on the 19th, Hong Kong fans each booked a whole cinema to support their idol Chun. Each cinema can seat approximately 200 people. Besides this, they also bought another extra 200 tickets to give to charity, altogether spending almost $TW140,000. This made Chun very touched, “This is the last public notice for my film, no matter what happens I must attend.” Fans also acted out some of Chun and Charlene’s scenes in the film, and this made him laugh contently.

Chun has recently just returned from promoting in Malaysia, and earlier he and Charlene rushed to 7 different cinemas while in ChengDu in mainland China. His schedule has been so busy that he does not even have time to think, “From morning to night, I don’t even know what I’m doing.” He expressed that he does not even have time go online, and only yesterday on the plane, did he have some spare time to check his e-mail. He also feels very helpless towards his loss in investment, as both the Australia and U.S dollar have declined, but he consoles himself saying, “Does not have too big of an effect, at the most I’ll just eat less steaks!”
