Well-known Taiwanese singer Chen Qizhen has recently been embroiled in a whirlpool of legal disputes.
According to Taiwan** reports, in June 2023, after the ** producer Zhong Chenghu, who had maintained an 18-year relationship with Chen Qizhen, broke up with him, the relationship between the two parties took a sharp turn for the worse, and then a serious contract conflict broke out.
At some point after the breakup, Tim Yichuang Company, the company to which Zhong Chenghu belonged, formally filed a lawsuit with the Taipei District Court, alleging that Chen Qizhen was suspected of violating the Copyright Law and other relevant legal provisions.
The situation escalated further on January 11, 2024, when the Taipei District Prosecutor's Office summoned Chen Qizhen as a defendant for the first time to appear in court for investigation in this case. On the morning of the same day, Chen Qizhen, accompanied by her lawyer, appeared in Beijing Inspection in a low-key manner, dressed in plain clothes, wearing a mask and a hat, trying to avoid the spotlight of **. In the face of questions from reporters who flocked to her, she cautiously said: "Since the case is under investigation, it is not convenient to explain any situation at this time." ”
At the same time, Zhong Chenghu's company, Tianyichuang, expressed a strong attitude in response to the lawsuit. "We have discovered that the company's assets have been stolen, and the prosecutor is currently conducting an in-depth investigation, and we are grateful for the public's interest," the company said. This statement suggests that the case may involve more complex rights and interests disputes and property issues.
This contract dispute between former lovers has evolved from a private emotional entanglement to a court showdown, which not only reveals the complexity of cooperation and emotional interweaving in the entertainment industry, but also arouses public attention to the contract norms and protection of rights and interests of artists. As the judicial process progresses, the truth and who is responsible are still to be further heard and adjudicated by the court.
