A fan obsessed with movie star Andy Lau has received an entry permit so she can return to Hong Kong to handle the funeral of her father who committed suicide after her hopeless attraction for the star had bankrupted the family.
The 28-year-old woman, Yang Lijuan, denied media reports that she would demand 500,000 yuan (US$64,767) from Lau in compensation for her father’s suicide.
‘I have never asked Lau to compensate me with 500,000 yuan and I didn’t receive 10,000 yuan from him as some media have reported,’ Yang said.
Yang has been crazy about Lau for 13 years and her obsession became public when her father committed suicide in an effort to force Lau to have a private talk with her.
‘I will go to Hong Kong to take my dad’s ashes, not to meet Andy Lau, but if he was a real person, he should show up and fulfill my father’s final wish,’ Yang said.
Yang said she hasn’t determined the date of her trip to Hong Kong.
Yang’s father, 68, jumped into Salisbury Sea off Kowloon around midnight on March 26, one day after he and his wife had escorted their daughter to meet Lau at Lau’s birthday party. His body was found in the harbor near the Tsim Sha Tsui area.
The father left a 12-page suicide letter, claiming that the family’s trip to Hong Kong left them penniless and it was all Lau’s fault.
A star chaser-turned-director has announced his plan to make a thought-provoking film based on Hong Kong veteran Andy Lau’s obsessive fan, Yang Lijuan.
Director Chen Tianxing said the news struck a chord with him, and he felt a great need to make a film, showing such fans to appreciate their icons in healthy way.
He also plans to donate all earnings from the screening to Yang Lijuan and her widowed mother.[by j033y]
