Most of the news reports seem to focus on Peter Ho, who just got married in March like Bie and I guess is one of the stars the media felt more familiar with. In short, the five entertainment agencies/companies held the “Spring, Here We Come!” press conference to announce that they form an alliance (or in fact create a new mega company?) and will start to roll out a series of big projects.
According to the press release, the track records of HeYing Times and another Chinese company include some big hit drama series (mainly Chinese costume dramas, it seems); Darton Entertainment of Taiwan has Peter Ho and some other stars; Korea’s MOK Group has a great team of CG specialists; Hand Some International Entertainment from Hong Kong has a Thai talent pool. (To my surprise, Push did not attend the event, but his name is listed here)
A senior of Darton Entertainment said the five agencies/companies will share all the resources under the alliance, their stars will collaborate in China and/or overseas, and the project investments will more than double in the future.

Many people embrace and dive into the Chinese market because they see lucrative opportunities there. But it’s as highly competitive as many others. Wish the new alliance and their stars very good luck.
