Mark Lee to leave J Team and start his own company
In the midst of Jack Neo's infidelity scandal, his longtime apprentice Mark Lee has dropped another bombshell - the famed Liang Jia Ban (or literally 'Neo Clan', referring to Jack's band of artistes) will split and he will start his own company when his contract ends.
Mark and other artistes like Henry Thia, Michelle Tay, John Cheng (Ah Nan), Apple Hong, Brandon Wong, Nick Shen, Tay Ying Ying and Jeremy Chan are contracted to J Team, an artiste management and production house founded by Jack. The former four can be said to have been groomed by the film director himself.
But since Jack's straying ways were exposed last Saturday by the local Chinese media and with more women coming out fast and furious, close friend Mark only had strong reactions and words on this matter.
Regarding questions of whether Liang Jia Ban would survive this storm, he said frankly, "It will be all but over." - why is he so sure? maybe its been confirm they will change the co. name and biz as usual?
Sources say that at a recent J Team meeting, Mdm Irene Kng, Jack Neo's wife, expressed her difficulty at juggling and managing her four kids and the artistes.
Mark, Henry, Michelle and Ying Ying's contracts are expiring this year, Mark revealed that he would start his own Huang Production Pte Ltd next January. He said that he would not poach his fellow artistes or end his contract prematurely, because he wants to leave his longtime employers with his head held high.
"I don't want to turn on my own. But if my brothers and sisters want to come over, I'm willing to 'adopt' them." - if all the bro and sis end up in my team nothing surprise (aka cover my back side first cos its just a change of co. name what - biz as usual)
The comedian-host explained that the stars are not abandoning their mentor at this time of crisis, but likened themselves to orphans who need to learn to be independent now.
Upon queries, Jack's manager Tang Wing Fai confirmed that there would be a new company set up by a J Team artiste but could not confirm the status of the others like Henry, Michelle and Ying Ying.

So now what
J team dissolved
Mark - of all people, on of those that supported his "teacher" during the drama mama conference
is abt to "betray" him after this act in the conference
and set up a co.
how true
we dunno
who knows its just the same J teams
transformed into HUANG teams - but same employees - including neo? or as a background adviser tat no one knows?
perhaps financially financed by the couple
but i think if this happens
it will be over - soon announcement of the divorce will come
there will be no point hanging on cos co. no need to survive anymore *refer to previous entry*
disolved and get the money
and than invest it somewhere else
