Finding Other Routes To Gain Back Large Sums Lost In Stockmarket
als  contracts  in  China   and
just last week, he  had  com-
pleted  one  motorbike  com-
mercial.    According   to   his
fees  of  RMB$1,200,000  for
every  commercial,   he'll   be
able  to   earn   back   all   the
money he lost very soon.
Moreover,    there  is   a    sun
block  commercial  which  he
shot  last  year  and  after  the
end   of   the   airing   contract  of  one  year,  there's  plan  to
extend   it   for   another    four
months. Thus,  this  is anoth-
er  addition  of  40%  into  his
earnings.
About   his   films,   there  are 
two  China  invested  modern
films,  'Yang  Guang  Yu  Sha
Tan'  (Sun  and  Beach)   and
'Bing  Ling  Cheng  Xia',  also
Xia   Yu   Shun   will   be   pro-
ducing      a       swordfighting
drama    adapted    from   Jin
Yong  novel,  'Xue  Shan   Fei
Hu'  and  wanted  Jimmy   as
the  lead  actor.  But  in   Xia's
new  modern   drama   which
he    sold    its    broadcasting
rights to CTS, Jimmy's name
is not found in the cast name
list,   whereas   Benny   Chan
who  just  joined  'Xia Family',
Tae and  Wallace Chung will
be starring in it.

latest news.
He  can   be   considered
as an enthusiastic stock-
market investor. But now
that   his  money  is  trap-
ped in them,  he decided
not   to  touch  the  stock-
market for the time being
and  concentrate  on  his
technology company. His
office,    Jimmy   Creative
located in  Chung  Hsiao
East road was damaged
in the Nari flood last year
and  had made a loss of
more    than     NT$3,000,
000.   Till   now,   the   full
restoration  of  his   office
was  not  completed   yet.
Although he had made a
loss  in  the  stockmarket
and his  company,  he  is
still a little tycoon.
This year, he had accept-
ed a total of 12 commeri-

Last September, Jimmy's off-
ice was ruined in a flood, this
year he had  lost  millions  in
the stockmarket. "I'm not pla-
ying  anymore,   no   need   to
wake as early  as 8 to  watch
the stocks again."  he  exclai-
med. But,  just depending on
car  racing  and   commercial
contracts, he's still able to  e-
arn back  the amount  he lost
easily.
It  wasn't  very  long  when he
started  investing  in   stocks,
but  he  had   made   a   great
loss and currently,  his  mon-
ey  are  trapped  in  there.  He
disclosed,   "My   total  invest-
ment    had    dipped     about
75%."  His  manager,  Xia  Yu
Shun  said  that if Jimmy lost
NT$10,000,000,    then   Jim-
my's  father  would   make   a
loss  5  times  greater. It's re-
ally  an  astonishing  sum  of
money  and  there's  only one
word  to  describe  this  situa-
tion, 'devastating'.
In the past,  Jimmy  was  very
engrossed in the stocks.  No
matter  how  late  he  went  to
bed,  he  would  surely  wake
up  at  8  automatically  to wa-
tch the stocks.   It's the same
when he was filming JSSJ in
Heng Dian,  trying all ways to
go online and look out for the

After  Jimmy  officially  become  a  professi-
onal  car  racer,    he  regards  this  year  as
a  racing  year,  tightly  packed  with  24  int-
ernational races, and even racing along the
streets in the city of Shanghai.
This  year's  new  year,   he   had   made   3
wishes,   'accept  more  good  films,   shoot
more good commercials and winning more racing  champions'.  Even  though  with  his
tight schedule of filming 'HYNH',  'JSSJ' and
"QTDS',  one  after  another,   ambassadors
for Taipei fire department and America anti-
drug campaign, and being spokespersons
for  a  Chinese  product,   taking  part  in  its
launching  events,  all  these  doesn't seem
to  affect   his   determination   towards   car
racing.   Jimmy   said   that   to   be   able  to
continously pursue the limits of  speed and
overcome  the  feeling  of  thrill,  can  fill  his
tiring  life  with  new   motivation,   therefore,
whenever   he's  very  tired  with  his  entert-
ainment  work,  he  would  search  for  mot-
ivation on the racing track,   as he just can't
live  without  the  feeling of  pursuing speed
and thrill.
In  early  march,  he  had  clinched  5th  in a
race  in  Zhuhai,    after   that,   he  had  took
part  in  a  rally  race  in  Shanghai  on  22th
March. As this is the first time this rally race
was  held   in   the   city,   the   streets   were
closed  and  the  police  even  guide the car
racers  into the lane.  This made Jimmy felt
really  thrilled  as  he is able to speed along
the streets legally.
Other than just car racing,  he's not idling in
his  entertainment   work   either.   There  is
plans  for   Jimmy   to   work   with   Director
Chu Yen Ping again,  in a new movie temp-
orary  named  'Tao  Xue  Feng  Shen  Bang'
(comedy  abt  school  life) Both of them had
worked  together  quite  a  few  times  in the
past  and  there's  enough  chemistry  betw-
een  each  other.  Director  Chu  had  expre-
ssed that he hope to invite Jimmy to star as
a cop.                                               (28/3/2002)
