Darren Wang's father to establish studio for son?

9 Dec - Wang Tai-qing, father of actor Darren Wang, has denied rumours saying that his son is betraying producer Angie Chai and is signing with director Chen Yu-shan's agency.

As reported on Sina, previously, the actor was reported to have sought the assistance of his wealthy father for the early termination of his contract with Angie Chai, after the latter was issued exit restriction by the Chinese government over allegations that she tried to bribe officials involved in the arrest of her other protégé, Kai Ko, over drug use.

Sources claimed that Darren doesn't want to be associated with Angie anymore as it would disrupt his chance of expanding his career to mainland China.

However, Wang Tai-ching recently stepped up to dispel the rumours, saying that his son is not joining Chen's agency.

However, he revealed that Darren will be working in his own production studio that he established with a close friend, and that the actor will star in the studio's upcoming film, "Jiangshan".

Wang stated that he plans to hire Ang Lee to direct the new film, while top actresses Brigitte Lin, Rene Liu, and Joan Chen will play the lead. His son Darren will play the role of a guerilla warrior.

The wealthy antique dealer also stated that he is thankful to Angie for promoting his son and that they will certainly help her in her future endeavours.
