Joel Chan Has Soft Porn Career Potential?
After being together for more than two years, Joel Chan (陈山聪) and Florinda Ho (何超 云) recently broke up. In Florinda’s Facebook, her status was changed from “In a Relationship with Joel Chan” to “Single”. He flew to England to take care of Florinda when she had food poisoning, but unfortunately Joel’s efforts to win back the heiress’ heart failed.
Recently back from England, Joel has been staying at his old apartment. When asked, Joel claimed that he has some new plans , but they are unrelated to the entertainment industry. However, 3D Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy <3D肉蒲團之極樂寶鑑> film producer Stephen Siu (萧定一) has set his eyes on Joel, hoping to cast Joel in his new Category III movie.
Stephen’s soft-porn movie, Due West: Our Sex Journey <一路向西> was a hit in box office when it was shown on big screen last year. Following the success, Stephen will shoot the sequel in October this year. In a recent phone interview, Stephen praised Joel, “This man is full of guts! Not every man has the courage to date Florinda. Although they have broke up, but I admire his audacity and lack of inferiority complex. This is worth supporting!”
Stephen intends to cast the original artists in the sequel of Due West. He has also created a new character for Joel Chan as a tour guide in Thailand. For his role, Stephen is willing to pay Joel $1 million HKD to go fully nude in the new movie.
Back in Hong Kong after failing to save his relationship with Florinda, Joel seems to be feeling better after spending a day diving. Through WhatsApp, he replied to the media with a smiley face and said that everything is okay.

LOL
My thoughts too 😛
The only reason he is considered apt for the role is because Joel is a talentless actor who relies on his looks. If he seriously sells himself out for a crap excuse for a movie directed by a pervert then he’s really going downhill.
He’s actually a pretty good actor in my opinion.
Agree. I hope he will not ruin his acting talents by filming some soft porn movies. Sad …………
If he is smart (I hope is smart), he wouldnt take this offer to further damage his career.
I agree as well and hope that he does not take those roles or do any porn movies since it may imply that he cannot act well or is desperate. I feel that he can come back to acting if he tries hard enough. Sorry but doing so will not help him re build his acting career.
Not unless he is desperate ………. to make money to pay for his credit card debts. I hope not anyway.
From what I heard about Joel, I don’t think he should be that desperate since he is not that poor like many think… His family is pretty well off too but just not as rich as FLorinda’s.
If Joel has money, then why is he behind on alimony payment?
Who knows if it is true that he is behind on his alimony payments?? I have only heard about it once so it may or may not be true. But from what I know about him, he is not dirt poor for sure.
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. Soft porn films didn’t ruin the careers of Tang Wei, Shu Qi,
etc.
Shu Qi is soft porn. Tang Wei is art film.
And the only distinction between the two depends on who is making the film.
In fact, there was more “Humping” action in the Tang Wei scene than any of Shu Qi’s
Seriously, Shu Qi has the biggest victim complex ever.
Tang Wei, now there’s someone who did CatIII and kept looking ahead. Amazing woman. Amazing actress.
hhihihihihiahahahahahahahahahahahhihihihiahhaahhahaahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahhaahahahahahah
Dear oh dear it has come to this….
Hey it’s better she dumped him now then later as wasting time with her anyway. And that stephen guy has a point in regards to joel having the gut to date florinda… doom from the beginning really.
This guy is obviously just taking a shot at Joel, who probably has no idea about this.
Sounds more like Stephen sees an opportunity to take advantage of Joel’s situation to promote his soft-porn movies.
agree
Yup sounds like it. What an opportunist.
Joel is actually a pretty good actor and he was getting more prominent roles at TVB before he basically gave up his career (and many of his friendships) for this relationship. I’m curious to see if he will go back to acting.
I hope TVB gives Joel a second chance. I really enjoyed his performance in several series. It’s such a shame he threw his career away.
This producer is definitely trying to take advantage of Joel to promote his film. What a despicable act.
I agree and thought he was a good actor as well and hopes he gets another chance.
Joel is a good actor. I hope TVB can take him back.
yeah, he should just go back to tvb
Wait, are Category III films soft porn? Because haven’t there been some big blockbusters that were considered Category III? Just confused because sometimes I have read on here those films did really well…I’m confused.
Joel is a loser, no wonder he got dumped. HAHA!!!
Joel, you don’t need this. Just go back to TVB and suffer a few months and you will be fine.
I think this Stephen guy is just trying to get some attention for his films. Joel does not need to do soft porn for money, unless he wants to do so out of interest.
Joel is well off, he is talented. If TVB won’t take him back, then go to CTI. If CTI doesn’t take him then go to mainland China.
Joel is pretty good actor thought he was great with samantha ko in the last steep ascent(?) .hope he doesn’t go into soft porn like Lawrence ng. “kinda like getting “branded” especially if it’s sleazy …. Tony leong and tang Wei were critically acclaim because it wasn’t only nudity, there at least a storyline … I think he should go back to tvb.. He is quite well to do isn’t it
i think he is broke, that’s why he needed to borrow money from a friend for the air ticket to meet florinda, also in debt of 10 million dollars, don’t know which currency or credit card though
It is HK dollars.
He should go for it and then explain later that he was “tricked” into it.
Best actor! I love him
