HK Billionaire Mark Chan Continues To Not Advertise On TVB, Insists It’s Not An “Act Of Revenge” On Ali Lee For Spurning His Advances

Mark, who is known as Hongkong's 'King of Cordyceps’, recently placed advertisements on all free-to-air TV stations in Hongkong... except TVB.

HK Billionaire Mark Chan Continues To Not Advertise On TVB, Insists It’s Not An “Act Of Revenge” On Ali Lee For Spurning His Advances

Hell hath no fury like a... billionaire with lots of ad dollars scorned?

Hongkong reports are claiming that Hongkong billionaire Mark Chan, 52, is "taking revenge" on TVB actress Ali Lee, 39, after she reportedly spurned his advances by hitting her where it hits most: her job.

In January, Mark, who is known as Hongkong’s ‘King of Cordyceps’, pulled all his ads from TVB after the station made him abide by a number of "unreasonable" rules if he wanted Ali to make an appearance at his company’s event.

Some of these conditions included keeping away from Ali during the event and banning him from doing interviews with her.

Mark would later tell reporters that he felt "disrespected" by the company and so he went on to pull all his ads, which amount to “tens of millions of dollars annually” in ad revenue for TVB. He then ran them on competitor ViuTV instead.

The move was said to have angered TVB, and Ali’s career reportedly became collateral damage.

A Singapore construction site has reached 6 million accident-free man hours, marking a major safety milestone in one of the country’s highest-risk industries. Accident-free man hours refer to the total number of hours worked across all workers without a single injury, often used as a benchmark for workplace safety performance in construction projects. While such achievements are widely celebrated, Singapore’s construction sector continues to face challenges, with dozens of deaths and major injuries reported in 2025 alone. At the same time, improvements in worker welfare — including upgraded dormitories with better living conditions, recreational facilities, and shared spaces — are becoming a key part of the broader push towards safer worksites. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #singapore #sgnews #migrantworkers

Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong recently spoke in Parliament about the need for Singapore to conserve energy, suggesting measures such as using fans instead of air-conditioning and taking public transport where possible. While the message highlighted the importance of reducing electricity consumption, netizens online had mixed reactions, with many pointing out the challenges of cutting back on air-conditioning in Singapore’s hot and humid climate, with the haze being a recent issue. The discussion reflects the balance between sustainability efforts and everyday, often necessary, comforts in a tropical city. #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #singapore #sgnews #sgviral
