Three months ago, actress Jing Tian was caught up in 'surrogacy rumors.' Chinese paparazzi alleged that she demanded a huge sum from her wealthy boyfriend under the pretense of surrogacy. The man allegedly paid as much as 30 million RMB (about 18 million MYR), but she kept delaying and refused to proceed with egg retrieval. At that time, Jing Tian issued a statement refuting all online rumors as false. Today, however, reports surfaced that Sun Yuchen, a major figure in the cryptocurrency world, has commissioned lawyers to sue Jing Tian and her parents, with a money dispute totaling over 30 million RMB—the same amount as in the previous surrogacy scandal. Sun Yuchen is now suspected to be the 'male lead' of those rumors. He immediately posted about 'My Girlfriend Jing Tian,' discussing the ups and downs of their relationship and financial disputes.
Sun Yuchen soon posted on X, exposing the intricacies of his relationship with Jing Tian. He wrote, 'An egg weighs 3.5 micrograms, while 50 million USD in cash weighs 2.5 tons. During a phone call with Jing Tian at Montage Laguna Beach, what she asked for was the latter, and what she offered was the former. She went there for egg retrieval, and the surrogate child was expected to be born in 2027—come sooner and they'd still be a Horse in the Chinese zodiac. She brought up the idea herself.'
As for why he sought her as a surrogate, Sun admitted that Jing Tian had been his goddess since his university days. Sun Yuchen, 36, is a wealthy post-90s entrepreneur, founder of the crypto platform TRON, and global advisor to Huobi HTX. Back in the day, he tried to add her as a friend on Renren, which she did not approve. Later, while he was busy with his business in the US, 19 years passed and he finally made it onto her list. He saw her for the first time at the Rosewood Hotel, booked an entire hall to watch movies with her, and shared various anecdotes from their relationship.
He called her 'Mom,' proposed to her in January this year, took her to meet his parents, and she kept asking him for money. He transferred her 1 million RMB (about 600,000 MYR), but she thought it wasn't enough. He explained a single card had a 1 million limit, and she found this inefficient. In the end, he used 5 cards and 2 accounts to make multiple transfers. She demanded a property in Hong Kong be purchased in her name, and he agreed. Later, when surrogacy came up, she asked for 50 million USD (about 200 million MYR). He said he'd think about it, but this eventually turned into a financial dispute. Yet, at the end of his post, he wrote, 'The above story is pure fiction. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Feel free to share.' This ambiguous ending led netizens to suspect he was trying to avoid legal responsibility. The post has already been widely shared.
Jing Tian's agency quickly issued a statement: 'A celebrity’s reputation is their life. We have the courage to say NO to blackmail and smear tactics at the expense of our artist’s reputation. Everything will be left to the court to decide.' Jing Tian herself made a self-deprecating comment: 'I still believe in love, my taste is still questionable, and I’m still not very wise.' In just a few words, her sarcasm was apparent, indirectly suggesting she 'failed to see through' her choice of partner.
Three Upcoming Dramas Said to Have Emergency Meetings
As a leading goddess of mainland Chinese dramas, Jing Tian has had a steady stream of acting roles. Now, embroiled in both the surrogacy and financial dispute scandals, her perfect image has seemingly collapsed, and her three unreleased dramas have drawn immense attention. Her highly anticipated fantasy drama 'Dragonbone Burning Box,' a second collaboration with Zhang Binbin, is especially awaited. There’s also the suspense series 'When I Wake Up' with Zhang Xincheng, and the family-emotion drama 'Tied Hearts' with Qu Chuxiao. According to online rumors, production companies and streaming platforms are worried about scheduling impacts and have held emergency meetings to discuss response strategies. Some gossip bloggers even claim, 'The producers have already had overnight meetings to consider who they could digitally swap her face with.'
