In February 2008, Edison Chen (aka EDC), a Canadian-born Hong Kong pop star/streetwear entrepreneur, was involved in a sex photo scandal - a series of his intimate photos with various female celebrities got distributed over the internet after a computer technician leaked them online.

While netizens were busily distributing the photos through email and forum, the scandal also led to the very first moral debate over celebrity privacy in China's pre-social media era.

Before this, Chen was a cult figure to many Chinese youth who were born in 1980s and early 1990s - as he was possibly the only counter-hero icon in the Chinese entertainment industry for introducing hip hop music and street culture to the country's mainstream.

After the photo scandal, Chen stepped away from Hong Kong entertainment industry due to overwhelming public pressure, and started focusing on his streetwear brand and more recently, art collections.

Almost eight years later after the photo scandal, VICE China follows EDC on a 19-day shoot, revealing his business routines, reminiscing his influences from hip hop music, and talking about the irony of stardom in Chinese showbiz.

After VICE aired this documentary in China, video view broke into 40MM in first week - people are showing full support to EDC, and no one's blaming him for being a womaniser anymore - again, the irony.

每天晚上我都睡得很晚，不是不困，而是不想睡，强迫自己不要睡。我似乎得了强迫症，我很忧郁。

因为我总觉得一天什么都没干就这么过去了，实在不甘心！于是我就尽量延长这一天的时间。我真是个有志气的人，我很欣慰。

志气是有了，可是找不到有志气的事情干，我很忧郁...

What a nice day!

世界上每个人生来都是陌生人，认识一个新朋友，你的生命就长出来一部分，失去一个朋友，你的生命就死掉一部分，然后彻底死去，最后被所有人遗忘。。。张爱玲写：“于千万人之中遇见你所遇见的人，于千万年之中，时间无涯的荒野里，没有早一步，也没有晚一步，刚巧赶上了，也没有别的话可说，惟有轻轻地问一句：哦，你也在这里吗？”，一次擦肩，一次回眸，也许就已经是莫大的缘分。
