Edison Chen who has not made a public appearance for a longtime
accepted a interview with "GQ" magazine and mentioned about the sex
scandal again. He personally revealed his feelings towards the
incident. He said "Taking my computer for repair is the biggest regret
of my life. The scandal taught me a lesson but I will always have a
question unanswered as to why I am the bad guy? I still don't
understand, even holding a press conference and apologizing. The
incident needed someone to calm it down and I was willing to be that
bad guy. Am I really the bad guy? No, the incident needed a scape goat
and I didn't do anything bad". He also had some anger "I lost a lot of
earnings last year. I even had to leave my home because I am that bad
guy".
When mentioning the sex scandal, Edison refered it to "that incident".
He said "That incident isn't about sex. It was a private matter. It was
theft. To others it might be a sex scandal but to me its invading my
privacy".
How does he rank sex, love, money and family? "Love and family are
similar. Next comes money and last sex. I am a man and men in this
world like sex and need love. Nowaday I believe in love.
Didn't turn Crazy or Commit Suicide
Thinking about the past, Edison found Valentines day in 2008 the most
difficult time to deal with. "I was afraid to go out, I was afraid to
eat. I didn't dare to do anything. I didn't leave my house for 2-3
weeks". He didn't know how the incident would turn out. "I feel I am
very fortunate that I didn't turn crazy or commit suicide. I saw things
through, has my life ended? No! I am still living".
Leaving Hong Kong and the entertainment field, Edison soon returned to
normal life. He stated that he learned a lot about leading a normal
lifestyle. He learned to iron his clothes as in the past he would
command his maid to do it for him. Which would take 3 minutes. But now
when he irons himself he discovered that he couldn't do it in 3 minutes.
He stressed that since the scandal brokeout his girlfriend has always
been by his side. "I think she is Superwoman. She has always been
supportive. If I didn't have her support I wouldn't dare to hold a
press conference in Hong Kong".
Forever Friends with Nicholas Tse
Due to Cecilia in the scandal, Nicholas and Edison's friendship became
awkward. But Edison stressed that they will be friends forever. "When
we studied in Hong Kong International School we were very close pals.
If he needed help I would definitley help him. Even till the last day
of my life he will always be my friend".
