Maggie Cheung left Hong Kong to avoid old flame? Superstar Maggie Cheung currently based in Beijing is said to have left Hong Kong to avoid his ex-boyfriend, famous Hong Kong director Yee Tung-Shing. Yee said on press conference of his new film "Shinjuku Incident", "I am 52 this year and have almost forgotten about Maggie Cheung; that relationship happened over 20 years ago. If we had had a child, he should be over 20 years old now. This is fate. If I can still remember it clearly, there must be a problem with me; I could be suffering from dementia." Yee also revealed that after the breakup, both of them have no intention of working together anymore. "She will not be part of my movie. I think she is more afraid of bumping into each other than I am, look at her now, she's even left Hong Kong to avoid me." Despite being banned in China for its gory scenes, "Shinjuku Incident" has been chosen to be the opening film of Hong Kong International Film Festival. Yee told reporters that he knew the film will not make it through China's censorship board and thus dared not send it to China. An avid diver, Yee said he wished to have an early retirement. "I'm making films so that I can dive. Movies making is a tedious and torturous process; from preparations, being the boss, choosing the actors, selecting settings, etc."
