Hong Kong businessman Ricky Wang recently set up a new broadcasting company that is set to rival against Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB), and brought along with him popular actors and actresses like Felix Wong, Maggie Cheung, Frankie Lam and Bernice Liu.
At the groundbreaking ceremony of the new company last Friday, tensions were high at the event as actress Bernice Liu and Maggie Cheung were spotted giving each other the cold shoulder.
Maggie was allegedly poached to join the new company at a skyrocket price. Another actress who will enjoy such prestige will be Charmaine Sheh, who is also set to join the line-up.
According to reports, the reason for Maggie's hostility was due to fellow actress Bernice Liu, who despite being ditched by TVB last year, was signed on and given similar treatment in the new company.
On the day of the event, Maggie looked displeased as she stood next to Bernice on stage, and refused to make eye contact or any form of handshake with the latter.
At the media interviews later, Maggie proceeded to sit at the back rows despite being arranged to sit in front with Bernice.
"It is better not go over there, there's too much negative energy.... I really don't understand... (She had) such poor acting skills!" Maggie was overheard muttering, as she made her way behind.
