Inside the Zhao Lusi vs Agency Drama: Wong Jing Breaks Down the Industry Truths |
Chinese entertainment heavyweight director Wong Yat-cheong, better known as Wong Jing, has finally given his take on the recent public clash between rising star Zhao Lusi aka Rosy and her management company.
In an exclusive chat, Wong Jing laid it out straight: most fights between actors and agencies boil down to cold, hard business interests. He reckons Zhao Lusi’s agency, Galaxy Cool Entertainment (Yinhe Kuyu), might have signed a bunch of talents — but Lusi’s the only one who truly blew up.
“Zhao Lusi’s talent is off the charts, plus her timing to enter the scene was spot on. That kind of magic is rare and tough to recreate,” he said.

Wong Jing also touched on what he calls the “one-star company” phenomenon, where agencies pour all their resources into making one star shine, but lack the power to build a roster of popular names at the same time. This leaves other artists under the same roof struggling to get any spotlight.
He pointed out that while Zhao Lusi’s huge success looks unique, it’s not impossible to replicate — it just demands a powerhouse agency with solid management and plenty of resources. Without that, focusing on one star alone isn’t a sustainable strategy.
Meanwhile, Galaxy Cool Entertainment fired back with an official statement, denying any wrongdoing in their long partnership with Zhao Lusi. They invited her to discuss any concerns directly and try to sort things out calmly.

Zhao Lusi, however, wasn’t having it. She reposted a message calling out the agency, saying: “In a company with so many shareholders, has a single person actually reached out to me?
My punches are hitting nothing but cotton, while quietly watching me lose my mind. Still, none of my questions get answered, and behind the scenes, they’ve got lawyers digging up dirt on me.”
Adding fuel to the fire, Rosy went live on August 2nd amidst the contract drama with a stream titled “Not Crazy, Thanks.” She opened up about how her parents were coming over because people were worried about her mental state.

She described herself as calm after a breakdown and said she wanted to be open without making her fans uncomfortable.
Despite the mess, Zhao Lusi assured everyone she’s got savings from her career, so no need to worry. She even joked about maybe opening a noodle shop if acting doesn’t work out — “You don’t have to do one thing your whole life, right?”
On the same day, Zhao Lusi dropped a lengthy post accusing Galaxy Cool of ignoring her attempts to communicate. The public drama continues to swirl, with fans and industry watchers glued to every update.
One thing’s clear: this isn’t just a star-agency clash; it’s a peek behind the curtain at the tough business realities shaping China’s entertainment world.
