New movie "Ji Lang Qing Chun" produced by John Wu held its opening ceremony at China Diaoyutai State Guesthouse yesterday. The chief producer John Woo together with leads Huang Xiao Ming and Joe Chen as well as many other important casts all graced the ceremony. Though he was very tightlipped regarding the plot, the reporters still managed to understand that the love story will involve scenes of Huang Xiao Ming and Joe Chen being very intimate. Joe Chen will also boldly wear bikini in the movie.

According to the introduction, "Ji Lang Qing Chun" is a story based on dragon boating with an aim to show the Asian Games spirit of determination and optimism.

Her character is in the national dragon boat team and Huang Xiao Ming will be the coach cum boyfriend that encourages her along the way.

When discussing the character, Huang Xiao Ming revealed that "Tian Hua (Male lead's name) is a near perfect man that all females and even males couldn't help but love. He had initially rejected this role "It was a too perfect character. I really didn't know how I should act. In "Summer's Desire", Luo Xi was already a very perfect guy but it turned out that this character was even more perfect." As for Joe Chen, although she will have lots of water sports scenes in "Ji Lang Qing Chun", she's actually fearful of water in reality and has been training on a daily basis now. She can row 1km without stopping now but the intensive training has caused bruises on both her arms and legs. She had originally planned to wear a dress for the opening ceremony but to cover the bruises, she had to switch to long pants. With regards to this collaboration with Huang Xiao Ming, Joe Chen is anticipating the different kind of sparks and when asked if her first movie on-screen kiss will be given to Huang Xiao Ming, she smiled and revealed nothing.

The whole ceremony had a very serious atmosphere and both leads departed soon after the group photos. At the end of the ceremony, when John Woo accepted the reporters' interviews, he expressed that both Huang Xiao Ming and Joe Chen are younger actors and actresses that he really likes and he believes that they have the ability.

Huang Xiao Ming in Guo Jing Ming movie Ice Fantasy

When mermaids and Ice Princes marry, when fantasy meets wuxia, when reality and illusions collide, and when to save the person you love, you must destroy everything that he holds dear.

Such is the world of Guo Jingming’s Ice Fantasy, actor Huang Xiaoming’s first film investment. Huang Xiaoming said that given his experience, “Ice Fantasy” is a movie with a lot of potential. Ice Fantasy will be one of several Chinese fantasy movies to look forward to in the future. Others include 3D film Mermaid Kingdom and Meteor Shower lead Zhang Han’s Change of Fated Stars.

Huang Xiaoming, who shot to fame in series like the Return of the Condor Heroes, has just begun his jump from TV series to movie. Now, after multiplying his worth through his stocks of his management company Huayi Brothers, Huang Xiaoming is no longer content with just acting. Huang Xiaoming said that once, his dream was simple – “to buy a big house for my parents. Now that’s fulfilled, and they even drive Porsches when leaving the house.” Now, “I really want to do more things myself so that I can create more,” Huang Xiaoming said.

This is the second Guo Jingming film in production. His new cosmopolitan novel Tiny Times, a cross between Gossip Girls and Devil Wears Prada, has also been picked by a film company. Plans have also been made for a TV series adaption of the novel.

Angelababy in love with her boyfriend Huang Xiao Ming

Their relationship has been kept low-profiled; earlier, Angelababy had secretly visited Huang Xiao Ming at a studio in mainland were she was secretly photographed. Yesterday, the couple had expressed their feelings using Weibo, where Xiao Ming had used 5 pieces of chocolate to express his love 'You are in my heart' for Angelababy, who commented on William Chan's silence, that 'Silence is a form of consent.'

Being a lead actress, Angelbaby had developed pimples from all the stress.With regards to the photographs, she had little comments, only hoping for some personal space from everyone. She does not blame anyone, and she would continue to be strong, and not give up love just because she is experiencing stress at work.

Rejects being called Mrs. Huang

Last night, Angelababy was in Shenzhen as a guest of honour with many other stars. Clad in a black dress, she was full of smiles despite her pimples, which was unknown if the cause was by relationship or work. When questioned about the photographs showing her secret visit to the studio, Angelababy had little comments and hoped for some personal space. She was then asked if she could be addressed as Mrs. Huang she became embarrassed, replying that Angelababy was still more appropriate as it is 'friendlier'. She also admitted that there was a lot external pressure to bear, which she had problems tackling, and therefore needing more personal space.

Xiao Ming expresses his love, 'You are in my heart'

With regards to Xiao Ming's post expressing his love for her, she insisted that they were not dating on Weibo, but the media's over-sensitivity. And regarding her own post saying 'Got house but not being able to return to it', she replied that someone(indirectly referring to Xiao Ming?) had offered her shelter that night. Angelababy then clarified that she was referring to a female friend, never did she thought that people would misunderstand her words. Now she would be afraid to add fuel to the fire when using Weibo. When asked if 'Spongecake' referred to Xiao Ming, all she could do was laughed embarrassedly but did not give a proper reply.

Praised boyfriend for providing a sense of sercurity

Xiao Ming had once mentioned that he was possessive to which Angelababy replied, "Xiao Ming is a great guy; he's true to people." Does he get 100 points? "After getting to know him, I find that someone like him is hard to come by, he does not put on any airs and even protects those around him" Xiao Ming had introduced her to director Chen Kai Ge, which she refused to comment on. She added that she did not wish to mention anything with regards to Xiao Ming. She was then questioned if she was afraid of being labelled a liar, which she did not know how to respond. Xiao Ming had not asked her to 'match his words' and all she wanted to do now was to work.

It appears that her love life was very stable, to which she responded that she was now happy, and would not comment further on her love life, to prevent further misunderstandings which would only cause more stress. When asked if she would give up her love life, she replied that she would remain strong and thanked everyone who cared.

William's lips are sealed

After the photo was leaked out, the couple had individually expressed on Weibo. Angelababy had said, "I thought if I covered my eyes, then I would be blinded from the Earth. I may be able to deceive my eyes but I would never deceived my soul." And Xiao Ming had said "Life is full of ups and down. The one who only thinks for himself, would end up in hell. The one who thinks for others, would end up in heaven. Happiness would never abandon those people who helps others!"
