Moon Lee Sex Scandal of 2006 – A very Chinese story with Chinese results

Only a Chinese sex scandal can have these very Chinese results!  They just love their movie screen idols and their gossip stories without end.

As great as life has been for my wife and me over the last ten years, we had long forgotten about the comically silly Moon Lee sex scandal that lead us to be where we were at.  We were enjoying the “good life”, knowing with certainty that Moon would be suffering from self-deprecation, forced isolation and denial.  It shocked me to learn that Phoenix TV, Hong Kong, through their Shanghai affiliate, offered her a two-hour interview with rapidly declining television journalist/personality, Ms. Lu Yu.

As expected, the TV interview allowed Moon Lee the unchallenged opportunity to lie about her divorce.  Everything Moon Lee said about me, her ex-husband, and my wife was false; we all knew she had a real need to deny the truth.  We expected as much and was not interested in joining in a debate in public about the matter.  We knew that most sensible people in the world knew the truth anyway because Moon’s version does not pass the “common sense” test.

However, a close friend who is also an excellent attorney persuaded me to file a suit against HK Phoenix TV because she felt that they had caused harm by defamation in accordance with China laws.  I had long realized that libel, slander and defamation charges are not possible between husband and wives according to US laws.  So the premise was not to sue Moon for public lying (because I did not believe that I could be damaged by her silly lies that only the dumb and dumber would believe) but rather to do something to create hardship for Phoenix TV for being so prejudicially one-sided in the re-telling of such a societal tale of passion gone wild.  So I agreed to spend some money and let the attorneys deal with the grief of suing a foreign media company doing business in China.

It took years to end up in Court that concluded recently.  As the plaintiff, we technically lost in the verdict because our two main demands were not supported by the judge --- admittedly, I believe to be the right verdict according to US law.  I asked Phoenix TV to pull the televised episodes so the public cannot see it and also asked for an apology.  Yet, the TV company and producers had long ago pulled the two TV episodes off the market already.  I did not get the apology because the judge correctly claimed that Phoenix TV had admitted in Court documents that their production was all for audience viewership and numbers rating and had not claimed any reliance on the truth.  They just published whatever the interviewee said just for viewership and controversy, and therefore owes no one an apology for not being factual.  All that I must totally agree with!  If the infamous program hosted by Ms. Lu Yu is nothing but admittedly a gossip presentation, then a new truth has been established.  That is all I can wish for!  Now I know and everyone in China should know too.

Here is my perpetual message for Moon Lee as she continues to live a life of pretense:
Thank you for your scandalous sexual misconduct that left you “in the dust” and led me to a new and gratifying life.  I was much less angered by your ridiculous sexual misconduct than in your unsuccessful and dishonest attempts to get rich quickly through divorce.  In loving you, I was fooled by your acting; in leaving you, I found out easily that you never had the substance and character to stick with a family that is highly-educated, financially secure and well respected.

The late implications of the Moon Lee scandal so long ago

Much more than a decade has passed since Moon Lee’s idiotic sex scandal of her own doing.  Very little of those events crosses our minds now.  Yet occasionally, friends or relatives would bring to our attention certain things they hear or read about this “has-been” actress of Hong Kong films.

It seems that poor Moon Lee’s life is still focused on frequent attempts at self-advertising --- though for what good purpose is questionable.  On the freely accessible cyberspace, she keeps publicizing her daily activities or traveling experiences as if there is a useful teaching purpose behind them.

As for me, the early sting of her thoughtless sexual misadventure has given rise to a wholly new life with endless opportunities.  My wife now is a respected stalwart of the Law family, enjoying all the benefits of being part of a successful, financially secure and highly educated family.  My daughter is a talented computer science student at one of America’s most prestigious technology institutes.  As for me, retirement from surgery has given much time to enjoy our real estate business and develop a new and successful hospitality business that involves owning prestigious and luxurious vacation homes in the Baja peninsula of Mexico and a 14,000 acre ranch that boasts the most incredible scenery, a huge lodge that overhangs a magnificent river canyon and also unprecedented firearms and equestrian activities.

Tired of working under difficult governmental restraints in China, my prior interest in music, theater and dance has given rise to my charitable donations to give birth to the Law Institute of Arts & Technology and its associated annual Denny Awards for excellence in electronic music.  Since its inception, we have produced many theatrical concerts that utilize the newest digital technologies to provide entertainment content that is all immersive and comprehensively entertaining for all audiences.  The latest production is Ms. Butterfly and can be reviewed at www.MsButterflyDIFAT.com.

Defamation lawsuit against Moon Lee’s lies still alive and well

Phoenix TV (Hong Kong) had its China division in Shanghai interview Moon Lee a couple of years ago and offered her a nearly two hour opportunity to lie and defame me despite her well established history-making sexual misconduct.  My lawyers soon launched a defamation lawsuit against Phoenix TV for broadcasting the program because it knowing allowed one party in a famous dispute to lie against the other without the opportunity of presenting the other truthful side of the story.  The suit was against the TV station rather than Moon Lee because she has no financial means to pay meaningfully for damages anyway, and I agreed with my lawyers that nationally important media must be taught a valuable lesson.

My understanding is that a delay in the court battle was brought about by Phoenix TV unwillingness to admit and accept the legal “service” of notification of the lawsuit.   But I was assured by my legal counsel that it will only be a matter of time --- they have made adjustments that sooner or later, the whole disgraceful episode of bizarre sexual transgression will be re-lived again by Moon Lee.  It reincarnation of the wicked story was not my choice of course; it was Moon’s choice to lie again in such a public format that prompted this kind of response.  For no sinner has the right to lie and put blame on the innocent.

My life has been going so well since the divorce from Moon Lee that it has no effect on me to have to re-live Moon Lee’s betrayal so many years ago.  I see from her online representations that she is still drifting around acting as a non-professional tour guide and travel critic.  As for me, my wife now is the envy of all and my daughter is attending one of the most prestigious institutes of technology in the United States.  I have made a gigantic bequest to a major university to establish an institute of arts and technology to honor my parents’ name --- so I am still producing musical theater of the most unusual kind.  And I am in charge of a number of big businesses involving commercial real estate, vacation travel and other hospitality businesses.  The latter allows me to own many magnificent villas in ocean resorts of Mexico and many ranches in Colorado and New Mexico.

So life has been good after the silliness of Moon Lee.  Rather than hating her for her infamous betrayal, I am often humored by the great potential afforded me by my new life without her.  Even if I were to wish her well, it would not amount to anything for nothing will change the emotional burden on her for committing this unbelievable and shocking sexual misconduct of this generation.  It has all along been her cross to bear!

Moon Lee sacrificed her future to become loneliest tour guide in cyberspace

In 2004, the retired well-known Hong Kong action movie actress, Moon Lee, embarked on the darkest possible journey of the strangest sex scandal and in doing so sacrifices her gifted life and reputation.  Ever since the ending of her long divorce process through which she gained so pitifully little, she has become a little-noticed China tour guide in Chinese language cyberspace.

Essentially without religious beliefs all the years that I knew her, she has become a devout Buddhist since her divorce.  Of course, many in history have resorted to religion to make amends for great sins and transgression.  With her past career and educational history, it is tough to imagine any gainful occupation for a woman of her downgraded stature.  It is also doubtful that she can find any beneficial romantic or marital relationship with anyone worthwhile.  So for all these elapsing years, the only experiences she shares is that of being a Chinese tour guide for heavily Buddhist-oriented sites in China.  She can only hope that someone really cares --- but my guess is that hardly anyone really cares!  Does anyone of substance really care what a washed-up movie actress of old really thinks about scenic sites of China?  Do scenic Buddhist sites offer any better relief?

This transformation of a previously well-regarded personage of Hong Kong films is remarkably pitiful.  Not that Hong Kong films was a subject to be revered; they have always been lacking in quality for years.  Nevertheless, Moon had a heartfelt journey as an underprivileged youth that rose through the ranks with adversity and hard work despite all that was stacked against her.   Yet, with carelessness and even transient lack of moral compass, a whole life’s work and reputation can be shattered.

Even my wife, a victim of Moon Lee’s treacherous slander and who has been her bitter enemy for obvious reasons, feels sympathy for this truly pathetic woman.  Indeed, she wants to convey happiness by floating around the Chinese landscape as a cyberspace tour guide, but anyone that vaguely knows her would understand that this represents hell on earth for Moon.  She craved notoriety and she yearned to make the greatest contribution to Chinese art, culture and Chinese dance.  And all this is gone forever!

In contrast, my family and I have accomplished enviable goals.  Other than my core of thriving real estate and investment businesses, I have developed a slate of successful hospitality businesses.  More gratifying is my major bequest and donation to an important American university to set up an important institute for arts and technology for both education and research.  By doing so, the creative expression afforded by multicultural resources and emerging digital technologies can create a new generation of entertainment content.  My daughter is now enrolled in a prestigious American institute of technology to study computer science and is poised to contribute to society and family through her expertise.

Moon Lee’s scandalous action of the last decade has been forgotten and almost forgiven.  We are all on different paths and mission.  Nevertheless, it is occasionally intriguing to guess how things could have turned out if she had chosen not to take that acute turn towards sexual betrayal and lies in that fateful year of 2004.  Yet dwelling on guesses or alternate reality is for fools.  The reality is that Moon did take that disastrous acute turn in 2004 while enjoying an enviable life and the rest is memorable history.  I am successful in business, in family life and in philanthropy and Moon has remained an unimportant webspace Buddhist tour guide.

Churning the Moon Lee swamp

In collaboration with my company’s public relations section, our decision has been to keep churning the Moon Lee sexual misconduct “swamp” because it seems useful to keep the truth alive if for no reason than to keep pressure on a sanctimonious self-absorbed woman who continues to perpetuate lies.

In occasionally reviewing the readers of this “blog”, it is clear that the Moon Lee subject has attracted readers from many varied countries.  Of course, I am not certain whether this is due to her undeserved “fame” across so many countries or rather due to the spectacular nature of her sexual transgression.  For certain, it is rare indeed for a famous married actress, mother of two children, to engage in a perverse extra-marital affair with an uneducated, poverty-stricken teenage boy that was over twenty years her junior.  The so far successful marriage of French President, Emmanuel Macron, to a twenty-four year older wife is not a fair comparison.  This much younger husband became the President of France, and this is no small feat.  In contrast, the teenage boyfriend of Moon Lee was a “nobody”, and he never became anyone of substance.  Moon Lee had to take a suicidal dive in stature and financial security in pursuit of this absurd extra-marital affair.  I would venture a guess that a successful sexual relationship between a woman and a boy over twenty years younger is rare indeed.  Emmanuel Macron is the exception that proves the rule!

The silliness of worldwide movie fans is also a feature that has also surprised me over the years.  As obvious as it was and still is that I am the person with the truth on my side, I have read occasional comments, especially among more idiotic Chinese fans, that favor Moon Lee’s version of events.  These ignorant idiots have no way of comprehending why I, the then husband, had no reason whatsoever to invent a ridiculous story of betrayal (between my ex-wife and a teenage boy) in order to divorce her.  It was a shameful event by any stretch of imagination, and it was totally unnecessary.  In America and in Denver, divorce is based on “no fault” laws ---- therefore blaming my ex-wife as the culprit made no difference in the divorce process.   In fact, declaring the truth caused me more harm and delay; it made the divorce process more protracted.  Moon Lee was so shamed by the truth that she chose to fight it with “tooth and nail”.  When the divorce was finalized, Moon Lee walked away with little not because of her misconduct but because I had long quit my profession as a high-earning surgeon and was living off earnings from inherited family businesses that were clearly not “Marital Property” subjected to division.

The lesson to be learned worldwide: do not adore actors and actresses you experience on-screen.  As human beings, they may have no resemblance to on-screen portrayal of character.  Any person has to be judged by his or her real-life actions.  Moon Lee was pretty enough and displayed worthy martial art skills in all her action roles.  As a real person, however, she was anything but a “sweetheart”.   She was pretentiously humble and maybe her deep-seated vanity eventually precipitated her ultimate downfall.  Marrying her was an unmitigated mistake!

In retrospect, Moon Lee's photo library betrays her self-assurance and self-adoration:    

UNFORTUNATELY, MOON LEE WASTED HER GOD-GIVEN BEAUTY AND TALENT.

Moon Lee, the “Pretender”, now deserves to be a joke forever

It has been quite some time since I have written any commentary on my ex-wife, Moon Lee.  The task had been delegated to my company’s public relations manager.  Since we are now all vacationing here together at my private vast ranch in New Mexico with a host of important friends and laughing at Moon’s silly misconduct that destroyed her life, I decided to make some remarks for old time’s sake.

It is clearly not because I am a good liar or a great storyteller that makes it clear to everyone why I had no choice to divorce Moon Lee.  Her sexual misconduct demanded it; but her greed delayed it.  At the end, I spent a lot of legal fees to ensure that her greed was not satisfied.  Colorado was a “no-fault” divorce state --- that is the very reason that I did not need to invent a story of Moon’s incestuous sexual misconduct to secure a divorce.

It was indeed hard for me to discover the actual truth.  It was unbelievable; it was damn stupid of her.  No one will ever understand Moon’s reason --- it can only come from her because no persons can ever speak on her behalf.  If it were a “one night stand”, that could have been a mistake.  Yet it was a two and a half year secret affair --- so it was well-considered, well-rationalized and totally intentional.  Moon Lee gave herself no respectable way-out!

Everyone that knows me appreciates that my divorce from Moon Lee left me much better off than before.  I have either God or destiny to thank for that.  Professionally, financially and personally, I am not in want of anything.  In retrospect, I know clearly that I could not have stayed married to Moon and forgave her for her absurd transgressions.

Moon was indeed a very attractive Hong Kong action movie star that made a lot of bad movies because of hideous scripts and incompetent directors.  Her great action skills did not make up for those bad projects.  Moon was also betrayed by her first husband, a Cathay Pacific pilot; he was having an affair with a flight attendant while Moon was pregnant with her son.  She was devoted to Chinese dance and owned for several years several dance studios in Hong Kong in order to teach young children.  Yet her devotion was not supported by her expertise --- she had no formal dance training and her hobby interest was only fed by her acquiring a children’s teaching certificate from a short training at the Beijing Dance Academy.

So many years after her divorce, Moon Lee seems to be a drifter and a self-appointed amateur tour guide using her own travel experience.  I wonder who cares for the travel log of a washed-up Hong Kong action actress that is now unenviably middle-aged.  If she has re-married or has any kind of love life, she would not dare to reveal it.  I would bet that she has nobody --- no man of substance would be so dumb.  No man who would enjoy her company would dare advertise it.  Moon is destined to live in the shadows.

Admittedly, my company and I follow her status intermittently if for no other purpose that to make certain she does not make any further false claims.  There is still a lawsuit that I have filed against Phoenix TV (Hong Kong) for colluding with her to defame me.  These lawsuits filed in China that involves penetrating national boundaries take unusually long time.  My attorneys say there are no worries --- the opportunity to re-litigate Moon’s lies will come.  Any protracted dealings concerning Moon’s notorious sexual misconduct can only be to our advantage.  She alones suffer the consequences of this devastating shame!

A Sex Scandal of Immense Consequence

Dr. Law and the entire Law family have always commanded huge respect and success for obvious reasons.  On that basis alone, it is easy to understand how Dr. Law was unscathed by the sex scandal of the century perpetrated by his ex-wife, an “over-the-hill” ex-actress, Moon Lee.

After the conclusion of one of the most infamous and protracted divorces in Colorado history, Moon Lee was awarded very little for her greedy efforts and retired from her previous life of a celebrity and theatrical co-producer to a life of an obscure Chinese website tour guide and amateur cook.  Seemingly in permanent escape or hiding, Moon Lee is afraid of exposing her whereabouts and true lifestyle.

On the other side of the coin, Dr. Dennis Law transcended the insult of being betrayed by a monumentally erring wife, and now sits on top of an empire of personal, financial, professional and philanthropic successes.  His present wife and daughter are the envy of all.  He owns a highly and ever-growing real estate business and has ventured into a host of hospitality businesses that includes vacation lodges in Colorado, New Mexico and Baja, Mexico and restaurants.  And he has made significant donations and bequests to benefit a number of important institutions to benefit education and multicultural arts and technology.

Dr. Law’s evolving gigantic legacy leaves the Moon Lee scandal totally “in the dust”.  Stupidity, especially in the form of mindless sexual misconduct, has serious life consequences.  The serious fall from grace is immensely unkind and offers no chance of redemption.
